Kinley's Restaurant is an absolute must every time I layover in Anchorage. The wonderful service, the delicious food, and the comfortable ambiance makes for a perfect evening out. I am always impressed with the filet mignon. Moderately priced and filled with amazing flavor in every bite. They always cook it to my exact liking each time (medium). Since I don't eat potatoes, they offered me extra veggies. The broccolini and asparagus were delicious! I'll definitely be back again!!

This place is fantastic! I'm not sure how I've never been here before, but I definitely will be back plenty more. The atmosphere is so cozy and comfortable, while the staff is attentive and great to talk with. Kristi our server had the best recommendations when it came to food and drinks, and the gentleman who brought our our drinks and wine was absolutely hilarious. After having a disappointing experience at a well known, very expensive location the night before, I was so pleased to have gone here. Definitely start with some bacon wrapped dates, they're delicious! The halibut cheeks were amazing, and so filling. It was hard to stop eating, although I really wanted to save room for dessert. Everyone else at the table got a filet and they were each perfect, and not a bite was left on their plates. Dessert was fantastic, the mocha pecan torte, and the apple caramel cheesecake really ended the night on a great note. I can't wait to come back, and I definitely want one of their hoodies!

Kinley’s is one of the few places that hasn’t changed since pre-pandemic days. The food and service are still just as excellent. Our server, Frank, was fabulous. Just the right amount of chit-chat and very attentive to service. One of our top 3 favorite places to eat out in Anchorage.

Kinley’s is an Anchorage gem!! Amazing food and service - and their specials are always fresh and exciting. The bacon wrapped dates and lobster raviolis are a “must have” - we always order them. The almond halibut is by far my favorite halibut dish in town. Always fresh and cooked to perfection. Recently their Australian venison special knocked it out of the park. Great midtown location with inviting ambiance - you are missing out if you haven’t eaten here. Also- if you get Christie as your server - count yourself lucky - she is amazingly nice and has an incredible memory!!
