   I love supporting the local restaurants, and Simon & Seaforts does not disappoint! They have amazing staff and their food is always amazing! We had an issue with an appetizer that was late to the table, but it was Christmas day, so it was understandably busy. We just boxed it up and ate it at home. I highly recommend this establishment!

   Went on Christmas day and the atmosphere was amazing. The workers from the greeters to servers to the busers and the manager were all welcoming friendly and amazing to work with. The manager stopped by mid meal to make sure everything was good and it felt wonderful to be checked on by him to make sure not only are they doing good but if they can improve. Our Server was awesome he was patient friendly and worked hard to make sure we got our meals and drinks out in a timely fashion. Also had recommendations and suggestions for us to make ordering easier.

   Our waitress was friendly and efficient. The food was excellent. It was pretty expensive but in line with current restaurant charges at other good restaurants in Anchorage. We were seated promptly at the reservation time. Simon’s was one of the few Anchorage restaurants open on Christmas Day.

   Our second visit to Simon & Seafort's. Great food and service. Was packed for Christmas Eve, but the staff were on their toes. Look forward to our next visit.

   Our server was incredible - he was attentive and Johnny on the spot. The food was a set menu which was disappointing - my surf and turf was underwhelming and the steak wasn't cooked well. Do not order the mac and cheese for the extra $10.50 - it was a watery garlic mess with dry noodles. Boo. This place is too expensive to serve subpar food.

   I recently dined at Simon & Seafort’s Saloon & Grill in Anchorage, anticipating a memorable experience given its longstanding reputation. Unfortunately, the evening was marred by several disappointments. Our server, Matt, was notably rude and unaccommodating, setting a negative tone for the night. The bartender spilled half of my drink in front of me without offering a replacement or topping it off, which was both unprofessional and frustrating. To add to the frustration, all cocktails and beers were served in unchilled glasses—a surprising oversight, especially when paying $15 for a cocktail. The appetizers and soups were delightful and stood out as the highlight of the meal. However, the main courses were underwhelming. The salmon dish contained bones, making it unpleasant to eat; the steak was undercooked twice, despite being sent back; and the halibut stuffed with crab, as well as the halibut cheeks, were bland and lacked flavor. While the manager did make a gesture by removing the salmon dish from our bill, it wasn’t enough to compensate for the overall poor service and mediocre food quality. Given this experience, I can only recommend the appetizers and soups and do not plan to return for a full dining experience.

   We’ve gone to Simon and Seaforts for years. The last couple times we’ve gone, the quality has gone drastically downhill. The crab and artichoke dip is usually creamy and fresh. I sent ours back because it was nothing but grease, burned around the edge, with long strings of onion in it. My main entree was the Crab stuffed Halibut. It was also overcooked, the halibut dry, burnt on the bottom and the topping dry, the green beans shriveled, overcooked but then let go cold. The bathroom was filthy. Two toilets of three disgusting and unusable, one of the three sinks out of order. So very very disappointed in how downhill such an iconic restaurant has gone.

    Oysters were excellent. Bread was stale and hard. Halibut was overcooked. String beans were difficult to eat because they required more cooking. Dessert of creme brulee was outstanding. Crying infants are unacceptable. Infants have no place in a restaurant of this caliber.
