This restaurant was amazing. The food was perfection and the atmosphere was elegant and quiet. My husband and I will be coming back.

Had an amazing dinner. Food was absolutely delicious and seasoned great. The filet had to be one of the best steaks I ever had.

This has become one of my favorite places to eat in downtown Anchorage. The atmosphere and food are top-notch relative to the asking price. In truth, I haven’t had a better filet anywhere else downtown. The last time I ate there, the filet was accompanied by a green peppercorn Chianti reduction—an amazing complement to the cut of meat.
My wife had the lobster, which, like the steak, was expertly prepared and well balanced on the plate.
The atmosphere is quiet and sophisticated. We asked for a table out of the way, which was honored perfectly. All in all, it’s a place worth trying if you’re in downtown.

I’ve heard people in town say Orso is overrated and I completely disagree. It’s our first time here and had a DELICIOUS meal! We were so full and our foodie souls were satisfied afterwards. We ordered the Filet Mignon and it was a great portion enough for two and had this tasty demi glace that I couldn’t get enough of. The filet mignon was cooked perfectly and was so so tender. We also ordered the Seafood Gemelli which was packed with so much protein and was elevated with pasta from AK Pasta Company (I always love the pasta from places who use them) and a cream based lemon pesto sauce. Ambiance was also beautiful and not rowdy despite how busy it was. Service is great too and they even offered me a vase for my flowers. Cannot wait to come back! Thank you Orso. ♥️

I dined at Orso in downtown Anchorage and really enjoyed the experience. I ordered the halibut dinner, and it was absolutely delicious—fresh, well-prepared, and full of flavor. The atmosphere stood out too. The scenery feels older but upscale, with a distinct 70s–80s vibe that gives the restaurant a classic, timeless charm. It’s a great spot if you’re looking for quality food paired with a refined yet nostalgic ambiance.

We have not been to OROS's in years but we both had a fantastic time! We agreed that it was even more improved since the last time we visited years ago! The whole experience seemed to address everything we like!

Orso offered us a varied menu with dishes that perfectly matched our tastes. It was our last night in Alaska, and it couldn’t have been a better choice. The Alaskan salmon was outstanding—the best salmon we’ve ever had, with a truly unique flavor.
On top of that, the server who took care of us was incredibly kind and attentive, which made the experience even more special. Super recommended—a must-visit when in Fairbanks.

We had a lovely evening celebrating our anniversary with dinner at Orso. We were welcomed with a card and our shared pistachio cake was complimentary for our special occasion. The personal touches were very nice. The host seated us upstairs, which felt a little out of the way, but was warm and quiet. The service was personable and the food was delicious. Thanks for a memorable and fun dinner for our celebration!

Excellent food and service. Most of the entrees are quite saucy. We especially liked the crispy ravioli appetizer.
There was some confusion checking in had to tell the front desk several times we were waiting for a reservation and our last name. Food was OK but overcooked . heard kitchen staff swearing at each other very unprofessional .

Wonderful cuisine and great service in a comfortable atmosphere. Excellent option for special occasions.

All the food was delicious except for my husband's filet mignon. He asked for a medium rare and it was rare. When he asked it to be done as he ordered they tried to fix it but this time it was charred n well done. They tried to compensate for it by giving a free dessert which was nice but better if the expensive steak was done right the first time. We'll still go back though coz all the rest of the food was good, service good.
