Serving delightful breakfasts and light meals, this is the perfect place to start your day with an Eggs Benedict and good coffee. Artisanal breads are baked daily and used through out their menu

An excellent menu. Italian fare, made and served with love. I'd recommend their Patagonian calamari (a personal favourite) and their melt in your mouth beef fillet 

Visit Anchorage for deliciously prepared seafood, their menu is diverse and staff are very friendly. A favourite of many visitors, you're sure to enjoy every bite.

For sushi and Thai dishes made with love and attention, this is definitely the recommended restaurant to visit. The owners have put love and attention into their menu, and every dish is mouth-watering. For the braver souls out there, ask for "Thai Hot" to get the spiciest and hottest curry you've ever tasted.
