Anchorage Food Review 2.0 — Glacier Brewhouse 🍻

Another highly recommended dinner spot — and it was packed! Even at 7 PM, the place was full. Without a reservation, you’ll have to sit at the open bar area 🍺. The decor is classic American, and through the windows, you can see their own beer brewery — their craft beer is famously popular! 🍝 FETTUCCINE JAMBALAYA A slightly spicy pasta with cheese — surprisingly well-balanced! 🧀🔥 It includes smoked sausage (with a nice smoky flavor, though the casing was a bit tough), shrimp, and chicken. The pasta was al dente — perfect for those who like a chewy texture. If you prefer soft pasta, this might be too firm. I loved it! ❤️ 🦑 SIMPLY THE BEST CALAMARI The squid rings were huge and generously portioned! 🦑 The batter was thin and crispy — not overly thick — and the squid inside was tender and juicy. It came with a dipping sauce and pickled jalapeño slices (which tasted amazing!). Great on its own or with the sauce! 🥩 PEPPERCORN CRUSTED STEAK The server recommended anything from the wood grill — so we blindly picked this steak 🥩. We ordered it medium-well (no blood, please! 😅). The steak was grilled as a whole piece and then sliced — charred on the outside, juicy on the inside. The peppercorn sauce complemented the meat without overpowering it. But the real star was the mashed potatoes! 🥔 Creamy with a hint of dairy, topped with crispy fried onion rings that added a perfect crunch. No onion taste — just texture and flavor magic! ✨ 💵 The total came to just over $70 for two people — and we were stuffed! For context, a basic bowl of noodles costs around $15-16 elsewhere. Well worth it! The server said it’s always this busy — people even wait by your table at the bar area for you to finish. Now that’s popular! 😂 #AnchorageEats #GlacierBrewhouse #AlaskaFood #RestaurantReview #FoodieShare #WorthIt 🍽️🎉
