The biryani was about average, as was the vegetable curry. I would not recommend the chow mein; it was rather bland.Three people seem to work here: the husband cooks, the wife waits, and another person might run deliveries. Expect staggered food if eating in and a less than aggressive service experience. If you want to get more to drink, you'll definitely have to wave the waitress over. She also can be very talkative and has quite a few insights into running an Alaskan restaurant if you're touristing like me.Prices are reasonable for the region. The store is closed midweek so that the restauranteurs can run down to Anchorage to stock up.The ambiance is also interesting. Music is nice, and some purple banners make the outside seating area rather pretty. Inside, plastic tables and child-contributed thank you pictures lend a somewhat charming fish fry feeling to the experience.Overall, a better-than-average and interesting experience.

The soup had no taste, it seemed like they just added two pieces of vegetables to $1 ramen and charged $15 for it. I'm giving it 2 stars only because the server was friendly.

However, the staff does a great job of explaining those items. The owner is very nice and helpful. The restaurant is small but cozy. I tried the orange chicken and the bagel, and they were both delicious. Two couples, including my father, had the ramen and all said it was amazing. My father described it as "comfort food" that warmed him up on a cold day. The portion sizes are worth the price. If the restaurant isn't too crowded, you may even hear the cook singing in the back. I highly recommend this restaurant to everyone. The only downside is that it's a bit hidden, but it's definitely worth the search. Overall, I recommend this restaurant to anyone in the area.
