Maria Gomez
The food was so amazing, tasty and could not find any faults at all. Older restaurant tucked away - very clean and well maintained. My pictures don’t do the dishes justice as I forgot to take them before eating. Paige was fantastic and so accommodating….great job! This is a hidden gem and highly recommend.

Husband took me out for a much-needed cocktail after working all day. The cocktails are really good. The bar has beautiful ambiance—and they have a happy hour. The smoked old fashioned is a must try, and I am not an old fashioned person! The happy hour apps were pretty good but not to die for. We had the deviled eggs and prime rib tacos. View was amazing! We will definitely go again for happy hour. We have gone for dinner and the only thing lacking is perhaps the food could be a smidge tastier for the price? Nothing bad though and great service!

What a huge disappointment! I ordered from here based on all high star ratings. I was wanting seafood and this place rated the highest. Perhaps a dine in experience would have been better but ordering for take out is a big NO! I do not recommend take out. No restaurant signage on the building to know you are at the right place only a big 420 on the front of an office building. I ordered food which cost $125.71 (tip included) and take a look at the pictures of all that money got us. The crab and artichoke dip was a 1/4 cup of dip with 6 pieces of bread. The Cioppino was almost as advertised but with one small crab leg not two. Had excellent flavor though, I will say that. It was probably the best tasting followed by the tiny bit of crab dip. The seafood trio had roached green beans, a solid scoop of mashed potatoes (literally hard - picked entire scoop up with my fork), an extremely dried out piece of salmon and a small 2 oz pc cup of sauce. The 2 scallops and 4 shrimp were just ok. Sadly No capers or lemon. I walked in to pick up my order and one older lady was unwilling to walk over and hand me my order. Heck she wouldn't even look at me until I cleared my throat and she finally looked over the top of her little iPad and said she'll will be with you in a minute. I said I just need to grab that bag over there. She said no she'll be back and can assist you. Why couldn't she? Or why couldn't I just pick it up? I had to wait for the very busy host to come back from seating folks just to hand me the bag that was sitting on the counter that was in arms reach. Anyhow. I seriously don't recommend this place and I certainly don't recommend ordering online for take out. I'm glad so many others have had a better experience than I did. I'm not sure I'm willing to give them a second chance especially at that price and the amount of disappointment I experienced from customer service or quality of food.

I had an incredible dining experience at Simon & Seafort’s Saloon & Grill! The King Salmon and Alaskan Black Cod were absolutely phenomenal—cooked to perfection, full of flavor, and so fresh. The ambiance was warm and inviting, with stunning views to match the excellent service. I highly recommend this place for anyone looking for top-notch seafood in Anchorage. Five stars, without a doubt!

I ordered the Seafood Trio and was very disappointed. There were only 2 scallops. The salmon was very fishy tasting. The shrimp were decent flavor. The mashed potatoes had good flavor. I ordered a side of sautéed mushroom, good flavor. The clam chowder had a good flavor. I added a side of crab & bearnaise, the flavor was disappointing. We tried 4 different desserts, the cheesecake was really good, and I'm a cheesecake snob. Overall, not worth it for the price, quantity, and flavor of the dishes I got. Nephew got the fish and chips. Decent flavor. We had several dishes in the family, I'm only sharing mine and nephew's.

The Best Grilled King Salmon and Halibut I’ve Ever Had! I had the pleasure of enjoying a perfectly grilled salmon and halibut dishes, and it was absolutely phenomenal! Everything about it—from the freshness of the fish to the preparation—was flawless.

This restaurant was recommended by several people, and I can see why. The food was great, and the service was excellent. I had the crab stuffed halibut, and my sister had crab and shrimp fettuccine. Both was so delicious, and the dessert was to die for. Vanilla bread pudding on top of the creme bulle'. Be sure to put this restaurant on your list to try when visiting Anchorage.

This was OK but not impressive. The deep fried deviled eggs sounded good but were not. I'll give them props for actually having clam chowder because i had a hard time finding clam chowder in AK, which was surprising. Unfortunately, it wasn't particularly impressive clam chowder. the service, when we could get it, was friendly but we waited so long for someone to come back and bring us our check that we finally had to get up and ask for it. We also did not get our drinks filled very much at all. The rest of the food was OK but not great. We probably wouldn't eat there again
