Exceptional service and delicious food and drinks. The value was on point for the quality. It was like being in a restaurant in Tokyo again right down to the bathroom. If there was anything to hint at taking away from the overall experience it was that it was a tiny bit loud or perhaps the couple next to us was just a bit over the top. No fault of Whiskey and Ramen for that though. Hands down my favorite dining experience in Anchorage this year.

About the restaurant

You will know the moment you walk in that this is not your typical brew pub. The scent of the alder wood grill and wood fired oven, the energy of the sparking exhibition cooking line and the glow of the brewery delight your senses. The BrewHouse features rotisserie grilled meats, the freshest Alaskan seafood, brick oven pizza and award winning hand crafted ales. The BrewHouse is Anchorage’s downtown landmark restaurant-“Where Alaskans meet Alaskans”.

Service was top-notch from starting to finish. Excellent food with a ton of gluten-free, vegetarian, and vegan options. Expect to spend $25-$40 on your entrée. (we both had left overs). Awesome interior design and convenient location downtown. We went this week and they were doing something special with DJs playing. It was about 2 to 3 notches too loud, which made conversation a bit challenging.

The food at Simon and seaforts is great. We had the crab artichoke dip as an appetizer. The members of our party had the halibut, fish and chips, the salmon, BLT, a sandwich, and the Cobb salad with chicken. Everyone was very pleased. The service was outstanding. Our waiter was extremely attentive, but not over bearing. And today our view of Mount Susitna and the inlet was outstanding.

Based on atmosphere and exceptional cuisine, this is the new Marx Brothers for us...the seafood dominated menu is a plus, but the meat entrees are superb. Chopped and Chowdered would be a standout in Seattle or San Francisco!

I enjoyed a nice impromptu dinner out with friends on Christmas Eve eve. The restaurant was not very busy on this Monday night and we were seated right away. The menu has limited vegetarian options. I inquired about any specials or dishes that could be made vegetarian and the waiter said all they had was on the menu. After taking our order he asked if there were any dietary restrictions, seemed odd to ask that after taking the order. Dinner was not rushed, when the food came out everything looked amazing and tasted great. Nice selection of wine, beer and full bar. I definitely recommend the seafood as the halibut, salmon, shrimp, and scallops were cooked perfectly.

We have never been disappointed with the quality of the meals we ordered from Sullivan's Steakhouse. The portions are generous, the presentation on the plate invited you to enjoy the experience and most importantly, the taste of all the entries we have ordered over the years have been five stars. The restaurant was filled to capacity on our visit and the staff moved quickly and very carefully among the tables. We thoroughly recommend Sullivan's Steak House.

Soup arrived cold, but they were prompt to heat it and return to our table. Only two tables occupied so would have expected more attention from server but overall a very enjoyable meal in a wonderful setting.
