Restaurants in Midtown

Midtown Anchorage is the city's most diverse restaurant district, where the commercial corridors along Spenard Road, Northern Lights Boulevard, and the Old Seward Highway serve up an astonishing variety of cuisines. This is where Anchorage's multicultural identity is most visible on the plate — Korean barbecue, Samoan food, Thai curries, Mexican taco shops, Japanese sushi, Himalayan cuisine, and Southern-style barbecue all thrive within a few miles of each other. The area's immigrant communities have built authentic restaurants that draw diners from across the city, making Midtown a foodie destination in its own right. Alongside the international fare, you will find craft brewpubs, pizza joints, burger spots, and Alaskan seafood restaurants that cater to every taste and budget. The Bear Tooth Theatrepub is a Midtown landmark, combining food, beer, and movies in a format that has become an Anchorage institution. Unlike the tourist-oriented restaurants downtown, Midtown eateries tend to cater to locals, which often means better value and more adventurous menus.
