Honestly not sure what all the conversation and hype was about.
Lamb was undercooked we had to ask for it to be cooked longer (menu and server didn’t say it was going to come out bloody red inside)
The peppercorn was good, but I’ve had better steak here in Alaska.
The chicken fettuccine was disgusting, noddles seemed cooked (boiled) wrong, chicken had a “smell”. Olive garden even has better.
I’m just shocked at how this place has such a good rating and reviews and recommendations.
None of us enjoyed the food much.

Had read good reviews about this place and didn’t disappoint. Really good frikadeller, chicken skewers, beet salad with scallops added, rødgrød med fløde and flourless chocolate cake. Very friendly service as well.

I really wanted to like this place, but I regret choosing this restaurant. The food was underwhelming and uncreative. The service was just meh. And the atmosphere was god awful. The light fixtures look like the carpet in the eatery of a roller skating rink in the 1990s. Plus they had a dude playing Roberta Flack on saxophone and they tried to sit us right next to him.

The food was Okay. Nothing to be excited about. The calamari was amazing but everything else went downhill from there. The bread was cold and just sliced sandwich bread, nothing special. The salads were mediocre, flavors blended and not that great. I had the beet salad and my husband had the Cesar salad, his was way too vinegary not even sure it they even used anchovy sauce. The pasta was horrrrrrible not even cooked properly and the sauce was bland and not very favorable. I had the ribeye steak and it was totally fatty could barely eat. Seasoned Veggies were two pieces of zucchini and a ton of mashed potatoes. The chutney was cold and not great. So bummed heard so much about the restaurant and couldn’t wait to go, I don’t think I’ll ever go back. Can’t believe it had such high reviews. It was my birthday tonight…. Booo Jen Roy

Loved this place. The staff were friendly and attentive. Katherine was great! I wish I hadn’t aggressively eaten the charcuterie board before I could get a picture. It had so many flavor combinations to try. The the house salad with the strawberry vinaigrette was light and refreshing as it was a bit warm outside today. Our steaks were seasoned and cooked perfectly. My filet fell apart in my mouth. The scalloped potatoes were a perfect contrast to the seasoned filet. We will see you again! Thanks

We supposed to have my birthday day dinner at Kincaid Grill but they canceled all reservations for that evening due staff being sick and that is how we ended up at your restaurant. It was cold in the restaurant , I had to ask 3x for water, scallops were at room temperature, my dish was just plain (I wish I took a picture of it) and we had to wait at least 45 minutes for the main course. Apparently they were short staffed due an employee to be involved in an accident. I understand unforeseen situations but it might help to warn your customers beforehand instead of trying to guilt trip us when we got the check. When I looked around I did notice other patrons being concerned.
I sure hope that it was a one time thing.

We started with the charcuterie board. It had a nice variety of meat, cheeses, & fruit. It came out quick, just after we got our drinks. The rockfish and salmon were fresh. The food was nice and hot when we got it. The vegetables on the dishes were nothing special. They were cut big but cooked thoroughly. The rockfish had a nice sauce. The salmon had a chunk of butter with cranberries that was supposed to melt on the fish but it was very thick and too sweet. Service was pretty good. Our water cups were never empty. Overall it was good and we will be going back.

This was the first fine dining restaurant we visited in Anchorage, and we have been back several times. Despite being fine dining, they’re actually also a nice place to go with well behaved kiddos too, and even offer a kids menu.
They do a very good job with their fish offerings. The black cod should be tried at least once if you like fish. It’s very rich and tasty. They also do a great job with the Alaskan favorites, halibut and salmon, which are always moist and flavorful.
Other favorites of ours include the beet salad, and I’m especially fond of their Virgil’s chocolate mousse. I’m rather picky when it comes to chocolate desserts, by which I mean that I’ll enjoy it no matter what, but I’m not going to say that it deserves to be hyped unless it actually does a good job. Most places have desserts that are just way too sweet, and the sugar content overwhelms the chocolate flavor. This one is just right. It’s got a hint of espresso that accents the chocolate nicely, and fresh strawberries, and really nice texture. If you’re a fan of the flavor of chocolate and don’t like it to be overwhelmed with sugar (looking at you salted caramel & buttercream frosting), this dessert is for you. My wife is fond of their key lime pie as well. Maybe not the best ever, but in contention for the best in Anchorage certainly.
Service is always friendly as well. We’ve never had a bad time here. Thanks for the great meals!
