After eating both dinner and lunch now, I would have to say the food at the Spenard Roadhouse is good... and almost there....it could be and should be outstanding and a culinary standard for all to follow, for some reason I feel that they are holding back...Cmon Chef! Pull the trigger! Blow us away. The first time we ate was... more

Spenard Roadhouse gave us the best eating in Alaska. Service was perfect and comfortably casual. On Sat. nights they have a local food special. The night we went it was halibut with locally grown veggies. What a contrast to fish and produce transported long distances. We saw the same produce that morning at the farmers market. Could not have been... more

I had reservations about going to this place when I found out the people at Sack's own it as well, but it was amazing! Our waitress was so friendly and likable. My husband had a seafood gumbo and I had a steak and bleu cheese pizza. The pizza was so unique and unlike anything I've had before. It came with... more

I really wanted to give this place a shot after the culinary disaster that was Hogg Brothers. Well, their brunch didn't offer any breakfast items for the kids. Full-sized portions only. I ordered the eggs benedict, my son the breakfast burrito, and my daughter the french toast. The sauce on the eggs benedict was entirely too sour. Killed the whole... more

The decor is awesome, the service was excellent, and the menu was as promised. I ordered the grilled salmon, which was delicious, but was more pleased with the cous... more

This place has a great variety of foods, from healthy to old fashioned comfort food! They have specials every day. Excellent service. Rustic decor, but good, upscale food and wine. more

Tasty food, awfully sweet waiters, interesting yet diner-ish decor, beautiful country-style yet classy wineglasses... small and big details are awesome. Their polenta is very tasty, as is the lentil hummus. Lots of light in the room. What's not to love? more

I've eaten at the Spenard Roadhouse twice this week. I'm a vegetarian and it's hard to find restaurants in Anchorage that have more than 1 entree option for me. The menu is varied and fun with delicious salads, pizzas, sandwiches, app's and more. My first time there I had an appetizer of chips and salsa (with local Taco Loco chips),... more

Spenard Roadhouse opened in February 2009 and has pretty much scored success on all fronts. We were expecting great food and solid service from the collaboration of the people who brought Sack's Cafe and Snow City Cafe to the ANC dining scene - they delivered! Even though we're not of the young family demographic, it's TERRIFIC to have a place... more
