Lovely space! I play music on Tuesday nights from 6-8 and we offer a family friendly lounge experience!
Had a wonderful anniversary dinner tonight at Orso. The food was delicious, and our service with Matija was amazing. He had great recommendations that turned out beautifully, and he was very friendly without being intrusive. The atmosphere was warm and social, but still sophisticated. Prices are higher but the quality matches. All in all a great experience. Highly recommend!
Old style decor - nice. A bar room with plenty of room to socialize. Downstairs and upstairs dining. It felt warm and cozy. Great menu options. If you like fish, you won't be disappointed. We were impressed with our choices. Plate presentation was excellent. Cooked to perfection. Taste - a dream. Exactly what we hoped for and more. All at a great value. We'll be back

Orso is a spacious restaurant with a cozy atmosphere that invites guests to relax. The menu features highlights such as the salmon dip, garlic prawn, and Alaska Seafood Spiedini. The calamari appetizer includes large Alaska calamari and is unique, while the crab cake remains a favorite. The fig and date salad offers a standout taste, and the ossobuco has been praised for being fall-off-the-bone tender and flavorful. Guests have enjoyed the Ribeye and the Shank, cooked to perfection, though some reviews mention that the ribeye was not seared well and barely seasoned. The filet mignon, however, has been described as the most tender in Anchorage, and the halibut was praised for being tender and flaky, making it one of the best meals in recent times. The service is friendly and efficient, with attentive staff who help guests navigate the menu. Guests appreciate the warm and welcoming nature of the team, who sometimes offer thoughtful touches like complimentary desserts for special occasions. Portions are generous, making it easy to share. The selection of good beers, including Pilsner and oatmeal Stout, enhances the experience. Guests enjoy the beautiful scenery and the good drinks. Orso remains a popular dining spot for the excellent local seafood, inviting atmosphere, and memorable desserts, such as the pistachio cake.
