Crow's Nest Anchorage Reviews
Once again, the best
I’ve been blessed to have dined at the Crow’s Nest many times over the past 25 years. Last night we celebrated our 40th wedding anniversary at the restaurant. The food was spectacular, but the view…oh my goodness…it was a cloudless evening
Not a “fine dining” experience at all
I had high expectations walking into this restaurant, as it was advertised as a fine dining experience. Unfortunately, the reality did not live up to the promise. Food: The biggest disappointment was the food itself. In the land of wild, world-renow
Anchorage dining experience that’s worth seeking out
If you’re looking for a true fine dining experience in Anchorage, Crow’s Nest is really the only place in town that delivers. It’s old school. Don’t expect anything inventive or Michelin-star worthy. But everything they do; they do with pre
By far, the most expensive place in Anchorage.
Is it worth it? 1. The view is the best in town. 360 wrap around. You can see everything. 2. Cocktails are 5 stars. Probably five choices of manhattans, 3 choices of martinis. A world class wine list. 3. Menu that is unique and exceptiona
Beautiful upscale restaurant with beautiful views
3 couples went in for after dinner drinks which is allowed if you stay on wooden floor…. Waitress was a little terse with us at the start and snapped that they do not split bills. Had a drink and one desert. Very spendy but view was awesome

My friends and I had a great experience here celebrating a birthday! The service was top notch and the views from our table were amazing. Each of us enjoyed our meal throughly. They even did something special for my friend's birthday! I would re
On a recommendation we went up to the Crow's Nest.
After wandering around to find the elevator we took it to the 20th floor. Upon seeing the hostess we put our name down for a bar seat. We were told it would be a 5 to 30 min wait. We decided to wait. With that another couple casually walked in, passe
Fine Dining at it's best
Wife and I went to the Crow's Nest the first night we were in Anchorage, and were not disappointed. We had reservations, and were promptly seated at an exceptional table. Michael, our waiter, was exceptional. He brought the various portions o
Disappointing
Great views of anchorage & mountains. Our server Caccia , was very nice, perky, pleasant! But the food was a disappointment. Pricey as it was my steak was not tender & had little flavor. I asked for well done, but it was charred on the out
Excellent restaurant in Anchorage
I always make a reservation at the Crows Nest when I travel to Anchorage. The seafood is so fresh and the wine list is spectacular. The sommelier Adam is so knowledgeable about his wines. You also can’t beat the view!

This place came recommended by family, so I was excited to give it a try--especially for the King Crab legs. We weren't able to snag a reservation and ended up sitting at the bar, which had a nice atmosphere. The drinks were solid, and I was ple
Wonderful dining experience.
First time visit and no disappointments at all. Staff was excellent. View was incredible. Salmon and Halibut entrees were both spectacular. Excellent wine recommendation. Wish we’d have had room for dessert. Will absolutely return.

We had a really lovely dinner here on our first night in Anchorage. Great service, great food, great view. We did not order any dishes that were prepared table-side, but we got to watch the very dramatic preparation of a flambé coffee drink which wa
Excellent food, rude waiter
It was a special dinner. We were a table of four, yet were seated at a small table when larger booths were available. Then, three parties of two each were seated at the larger booth tables. When I inquired about a specialty cocktail ingredients, I wa
I was here for an event and we decided to come have dinner.
I had the amazing arugula salad with tomato soup. Both were sooooo good and flavorful. The salad was fresh and the cheese crumbles topped it off. The soup was nice and hot which made it great on the cold evening. Service was quick and easy. The bread
Better the first time.
We came to this restaurant in July of 2024. Food was good, service was good, friendly and helpful. Food was excellent back in 2024, oysters were large came with a nice sorbet as a palate cleanser. Fish was tasty, perfectly cooked and flaky. Fast forw
The staff are five stars without a doubt.
David was the absolute best server and their sommelier was really sweet and chatted with us for a while. The view is absolutely stunning and the food is good. The halibut was lively cooked and my husband got the fillet with crab which was nice but a
Crow's Nest bar with fabulous views
The Crow's Nest is worth the wait- limited seating at the bar but fabulous views all over at the top of the Captain Cook hotel-the drinks and bar staff were great and the bar menu food excellent-super views of snow capped mountains abound
We have been coming to Crows nest over the years.
Views are amazing from every table, servers are knowledgeable with excellent customer service. We have sampled most items on the menu. With each new updated menu item we are always excited to give it a try. Never being disappointed. Our starter mus

Great view, great black cod
This hotel is a little kitschy, but the top floor Crow's Nest is old school awesome. I had a drink at the bar one evening and it was full of characters and great service. Dinner another night with very professional service, incredible views, and

Stephen at the tourist information center recommended The Crow's Nest as a relaxing place with great food and an amazing view of Anchorage. He was not wrong! We sat in the bar area with views of the downtown area on one side and water views on the ot
Lovely view, great local food, and friendly staff.
On a recent trip to Anchorage I stayed at the Hotel Cap Cook and decided to treat myself to a special dinner. Dre greeted me and showed me to my seat with friendly conversation. Emma and Roberto provided excellent service. Emma was super knowledge
The view is amazing.
I got the rib eye, rare. It was flavored perfect, but was cooked more medium to medium rare. What makes this place stand out is the view. So come before the sunset to enjoy the view, you'll love it!
This was a great dinner night spot.
Located in the Captain Cook Hotel, this restaurant is one of my favorites in Alaska , serving quality food, drinks, and excellent service. The views here are spectacular and it doesn't cost extra to sit next to a window. The crab bisque was a great

Wonderful Evening!!
A wonderful evening at this great restaurant! Our food was delicious , enhanced by our server Chelsea! She was excellent …gave great descriptions of all dishes! Oysters were delicious, as was the Crab Bisque. The rib eye was also tender and tasty!

The food was fabulous with terrific service and the view of downtown was amazing. Watching the moon rise was the best.
Amazing in every category.
Definitely the best crab legs in Anchorage. Logan was a very professional and educated server.

We've been back to Crow's Nest a few more times since I wrote my original review last year, so I think it's time to update it. That fifth star is well deserved, that's for sure! I always recommend reservations, just to be on the safe side! The serv
Amazing views, excellent food and top notch service.
It's by far my favorite restaurant in Anchorage if not Alaska. If you haven't been to this place, you are definitely missing out.

Foremost, you canNOT get over that 360 view. While you try, please treat yourself to their fried, goat cheese-filled, Castelvetrano olives. They are life affirming❣️ Drink prices are quite reasonable. They take reservations but they keep a sweet
The Crow's Nest is an Anchorage classic and while I used to
The Crow's Nest is an Anchorage classic and while I used to think it sat in the 4/5 star range, recent menu overhauls have moved it into the 4.5-5/5 star range for me for sure. To start with, the Captain Cook is beautifully decorated at the holiday
Horrible waitress with accountability issues
The waitress decided to NOT put my whole order in and then blame me for it. I asked for risotto to start and scallops as an entree. she told me ordering was done in 20 minutes so I put in my dinner entree with my app she decided on her own I didn't
Dont bother
oysters were fine… Their sorbet accompaniment was really trying too hard. They were not as cold as they should have been presented either. The salt brine had been poured off on most, as well, so don’t bother. we ordered a traditional set up… I
mahmoud salah al din assaf loves The Crows Nest
The crab legs melt in your mouth. You can savor ever bite. Dam they are so good. Service was very good.
Not worth the hype
Had high expectations after reading reviews. Food was just average, service from waiter was substandard (he actually chided us to wait for him to return to fill our wine glass so he could first prepare our check😳) The view was the best thing abo
Overrated food, good service.
Nice dining room, good view. Decor is tired and worn, just like the hotel it sits on top of. Table cloth was more like a bed spread. Friendly server, never checked on us again after the food came out. After we ate and didn’t want any desserts she
Wonderful
We were celebrating our wedding anniversary after completing a land-cruise tour to Alaska. Our server was Chelsey and her assistant was Rafael. Our table was in a corner overlooking the Anchorage skyline and harbor. We started with perfect cocktails
Likely worth a visit when the sun's out
After reading many reviews, we decided to splurge on a dinner at the Crow's Nest while in Anchorage. Unfortunately, the evening of our reservation was quite overcast, so the view was underwhelming. That said, the service was impeccable and the food w
Prix Fixe with Pairing
Found a few seats at the bar, views were great. Had the bone marrow, charcuterie, halibut, and some dessert brandy. Spoke with both Sommeliers on the team, they both were helpful in finding a some wine that matched my guest and I's preferences. Evely
Connect with users posting reservations for Crow's Nest Anchorage
AppointmentTrader is a community-driven platform where users can exchange their reservations or leverage their personal relationships with Crow's Nest Anchorage. Buyers can make informed decisions using automated seller ratings, which reflect past transactions and reliability.
Each posting on AppointmentTrader shows you which user submitted it and along with that provides a trackrecord of that user which indicates how much experience
the user has and how many percent of their transactions resulted in them issuing a refund.
If there is no user posting that fits your schedule, you can bid on your preferred time.
Let's say Peter has a great morning and decides to take his three friends to Crow's Nest Anchorage at 6 PM the same day.
He checks the restaurant's website and sees that no reservations are available. He then looks at the Crow's Nest Anchorage page on AppointmentTrader, but finds that there are no user postings either.
That's where the community-driven bid process comes in.
Peter can place a bid on AppointmentTrader, which serves as a reward for any community member who chooses to work on securing the reservation. AT then notifies experienced users who may be able to help.
Step-by-Step Process
1.) Setting a Reward (Bid)
* AppointmentTrader uses historical data to recommend a reasonable reward amount for securing a reservation - let's say $100.
* Peter really wants to go, so he increases the bid (or reward) to $200.
* At this stage, the reservation does not exist yet.
2.) A Community User Picks Up the Bid
* FluffyStar64, an experienced AT user, has a strong track record of successfully securing reservations and low refund requests, they receive a notification about Peter's $200 bid.
* FluffyStar64 picks up the bid, meaning they will now work on securing the reservation.
* Peter can now talk to FluffyStar64 for any questions Peter may have as FluffyStar64 user fills the bid.
3.) Finding the Reservation
* FluffyStar64 now uses their connections at Crow's Nest Anchorage to secure the table.
* If they successfully get the 6 PM table for four, Peter receives a confirmation that the reservation has been secured.
* If FluffyStar64 fails to secure the reservation, the bid is returned to the pool so another user can try.
4.) Payment & Protection
* Once the reservation is secured, FluffyStar64 receives the $200 reward which is credited to FluffyStar64's AT balance, where users manage their own funds and can withdraw via available payout options such as bank transfer, PayPal, or Zelle.
* Peter can now enjoy the dinner with his friends at Crow's Nest Anchorage!
* As with all transactions on AT, disputes and no-show fees are handled through the platform's community-driven resolution system. Users with a strong track record are incentivized to fulfill bids successfully, and community members can report issues to maintain trust in the marketplace.
