misssea Posted February 28, 2013 #1 Share Posted February 28, 2013 I have heard good things about this restaurant. Would you recommend eating there or at a restaurant at the Westmark? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WatchHill Posted February 28, 2013 #2 Share Posted February 28, 2013 We ate at the Glacier Brew House one night in Anchorage and enjoyed the food. Staff was very friendly - had a few excellent maritni's - blood orange cosmo - yum. Be sure to call for reservations, it's a busy place. Arrive a bit early and take a look at the gift shops by the restaurant entrance. darcy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Coral Posted February 28, 2013 #3 Share Posted February 28, 2013 We ate there and thought it was good. I have no other restaurants to compare it to but would eat there again. They also own another restaurant nearby that also receives good reviews. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WatchHill Posted February 28, 2013 #4 Share Posted February 28, 2013 Coral, The other nearby resaurant might be Snow Goose. We ate there our first night in Anchorage, after a long flight from the East coast. We dined on the second level - nice balcony overlooking the water and watching the very late sun set. Allowing for the time change, we didn't have dinner, but ordered an assortment of appetizers. Darcy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AKStafford Posted February 28, 2013 #5 Share Posted February 28, 2013 The Brewhouse is good. I don't think I would do the restaurant in the hotel. The few times I've ate there I was thoroughly unimpressed. Next door to the Brewhouse is Orso, which also has a good reputation. http://www.glacierbrewhouse.com/ http://www.orsoalaska.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glaciers Posted February 28, 2013 #6 Share Posted February 28, 2013 As noted above, reservations are absolutley necessary for dinner and as soon as you know what day you'll be dining there if you are looking for a specific time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BubMunkeyBles Posted February 28, 2013 #7 Share Posted February 28, 2013 I think Glacier is nice. Orso is more upscale. I personally prefer Midnight Sun though. I didn't like Snow Goose, but they have a great location overlooking the water. We've been to all a few times now. There's also Humpy's. :) I've only ever gotten reservations for Orso.

Budget Queen Posted February 28, 2013 #8 Share Posted February 28, 2013 I just about always eat at the Glacier Brewhouse, along with Orso. Both excellent choices, that are consistantly excellent. Snow Goose is great for a meal as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Northern Aurora Posted March 1, 2013 #9 Share Posted March 1, 2013 I've had to stay at the Anchorage Westmark on business, and I would definitely walk across the street to dine at the Glacier Brewhouse over the Westmark. Definitely make reservations for the Brewhouse, and be prepared that it can be rather noisy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FlipperRae Posted March 3, 2013 #10 Share Posted March 3, 2013 My brother is a local and he says Humpy's is the place to go in Anchorage! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krazy Kruizers Posted March 3, 2013 #11 Share Posted March 3, 2013 One year we stayed a a couple of days at eh Westmark -- only had breakfast there. We ate dinner at the Brewhouse each night. And the last 2 times that our cruises stopped in Anchorage we ate lunch there. Enjoyed every meal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
