Charlou - Anchorage

I love charlou we have come since their introduction and they have always had an excellent service, a varied and storable bar with tons of fantastic beer, weeping and apple wines. but eating is where it really seems to me. everything is so fresh and done so well. they can really taste the love and be careful that put the cook and kitchen in the food. they not only have a seasonal menu, but also nights where there are live musicians, comedians and performers on the stage. it is a really intimate and beautiful atmosphere and I am so glad to see that they finally get more customers because they earn honestly the business. bonus points for the fact that they are very allergen conscious and vegetarian friendly. here are many great gluten-free/dairy free/meat-free options.

Absolutely delicious! a very welcome addition to the anchorage dining scene. imaginative menu with plates for exchange. the food was nicely prepared and tasteful. the smoked salmon was the best I ever had, everywhere. the same applies to smoked white fish and the server was friendly and very knowledgeable about eating and a relaxing and friendly environment. it is clear that charlou is a place that takes good eating seriously. highly recommended!

Eating was top-notch, and almost everything is alaskan grown/made. I had the hot halibut sandwich that came with homemade kartoffel chips. it was the perfect mix of spicy with sweet and it was the perfect texture. the chips are amazingly good and are crispy and exactly the right amount salty. the server is very knowledgeable about the menu and super friendly!

Such a wonderful place! Can't recommend this food enough. As local as possible, as fresh as possible, easily best burger in town! Servers are wonderful and their Charlou Salad is to die for. Try the goddess dressing!

I had the clam in white wine and garlic butter sauce special, it was great! comes with two in house bags. my man ordered the charlou ak pasta, but I was not fast enough to get a picture. he the rock fish was a good, gentle balance against the zesty pasta. We recommend the frozen parfait with seasonal apple sauce. incredible!
