Located in an old house on Third Ave, this is, in my opinion, the best restaurant in Alaska. Everything is inventive and correctly prepared. They use excellent ingredients. The menu changes daily. Pretty much everything is prepared in house from scratch (you'd be surprised how much frozen/packaged stuff is used in even the better restaurants around town). The wine and beer list is good, too.
Marx Bros. blows places like Orso and Simon and Seafort's out of the water.
We had:
caesar salad, prepared tableside
wild boar baby back ribs
rabbit rangoons
celeriac soup with tea smoked duck and marscapone
pan roasted breast of pheasant
seared Kodiak scallops and grilled prawns
and for dessert:
blueberry sorbet
creme brulee (best I've had in memory)
chocolate mousse (unbelievably good)
Lordy, was the food ever good!!!! Thanks Zach and Melisa.
