Very nice upscale experience in downtown Anchorage. Views from the 20th floor windows were very alluring. Our server was amazing - very knowledgeable and attentive. The wine list was extensive. I felt the fish was dry.

Our waiter and the service was amazing. Emma? could not have been more friendly or helpful for our party of seven. Corner table out of the way with a great view. Food was sometimes worth the high price tag (risotto, crab legs, fried olives, desserts) and sometimes not (black cod). We had a lovely evening with some delicious moments!
