A
Orso
This restaurant is like a stepping into a Tuscan country inn only there's modern art all around and soft jazz floating into both dining levels and the bar. Its entrees are Mediterranean grill with an Alaskan twist, its pasta is made fresh daily and everything is served by a waitstaff that knows how the chef prepares it.

Sitting on top of Mt Alyeska, 2300ft above sea level, is the best of Alyeska Resort's six restaurants and bars. The hotel tram will take you to an evening of gourmet dining and absolutely stunning views that include Turnagain Arm and, yes, seven glaciers.

Homestead
Considered the highest-end - and perhaps the most delicious - restaurant in Homer, with appetizers like Kachemak Bay oysters and mains such as Thai curry and Sonoran seafood stew. Though the waiters wear black ties, patrons can come as they are (hey, this is Homer, after all). Reservations are recommended.

Captain Pattie's
This oceanfront eatery has become a Spit institution by selling overpriced seafood to a constant stream of landlubbers. It claims its halibut is Alaska's best, but those in the know order crab.

Le Barn Appetit
In this unorthodox eatery off Exit Glacier Rd there's not really a fixed menu - except for crepes, which are so sinful that, as chef Yvon Van Driessche says, 'you must go to confession.'

El Rodeo
This little Mexican restaurant gets packed at night but the wait for a table is well worth it. For more than 10 years this has been the best and most affordable Tex-Mex in Anchorage.

O
Boardwalk
Widely viewed as the best place on the Spit for halibut - tempura-battered, fried and served kabob-style. Notice, however, that fishermen, unlike the tourists, go for the burgers.

A hippie twist on the standard diner: on one hand, it has burgers and Budweiser; on the other, you can pay 50¢ extra to have bee pollen added to your mango smoothie.
