I had the crab stuffed rock fish with cauliflower puree that was out of this world. My husband had their chicken parmesan and he said it was very good. Nice wine list and totally excellent service.

You have got to sit in Stephanie's station. Best waitress ever!! Fun, sweet and very knowledgable about the food choices. Made us want every thing she described.

We go here when the Brewhouse is over crowded. Happy hour on appetizers is pretty good and gets better out of tourist season when prices drop. All about the tenderloin tips and polenta fries.

Orso has one of the most amazing gluten free menus and wine list I have seen in Alaska. It is well worth a trip here. I'd fly back just for dinner!

Alaskan crusted halibut is to die for. Have it, or regret it every day of your life!

Excellent food! Slightly overpriced. Meal for 2 is easily going to be over $100 without any drinks included.

What happened to Orso? Plates are smaller, more expensive and bread and hummus is no longer complimentary. Food was overall still good but price and even atmosphere have taken a turn for the worst.
