First of all the place was so dirty! Large garbage cans in open waitress stations were filthy! Salsa was terrible! My Spinach cheese dip was runny! My cheese enchilada ala cart was so burnt I couldn’t eat it and another plate of 3 kinds of Enchiladas was just a mushy mess! I’ve been going to Garcias for over 30 years and will never go back!

It was horrible, I got the chicken fajitas and the chicken was so overcooked it was almost inedible. The service was pretty good, the atmosphere is not amazing and just overall I would not come back. Also very expensive for what you get.

I don’t head out of Anchorage much but this place was a great find in Eagle River! Very good food and excellent service. We got free chips and salsa, a free refill on our horchata, and constant check-ins from our waitress. I got the carne asada tacos with beans and rice while my partner got the carne asada chimichanga with beans and rice. We also got the Sampler Appetizer which is a MUST. Please check these guys out as they also have live music!

One of my personal favorites. Ask for hot sauce with your chips, and I recommend the chicken burro or Pollo fundido.

I was hesitant to visit Garcia's, I'd never heard of it by word of mouth or in a commercial or anything. However, I loaded the family up, and we drove from Anchorage to ER.From the second we walked in, I felt welcome and appreciated as a customer. The food came quick, hot, and delicious. The atmosphere is a bit much, very loud in volume and visual.Will definitely be back.

One of the best restaurants in eagle river. All of the staff are friendly and super helpful and the general atmosphere is warm and welcoming. There is live music sometimes and they provide a beer truck at events around town. The food is good but not the world's best. But what it lacks in flavor is made up in quick turnaround and large quantities for a reasonable price. Definitely an eagle river staple!!

This is an enchanting place with a very nice staff but frankly our most recent visit was disappointing. We ordered first and got our food last - admitted it was a big group - but it was obvious that it had been under a heat lamp for awhile and wasn't good. The waitress was OK, but the lady cleaning the tables was the BOMB! She made sure we had water, our tables had all the elements to properly enjoy the meal. I will say I loved the interior decorations - this is a great themed restaurant with the potential to be better.

One of the few places that stuck around in Eagle River. Always great food and service here, staff are always plesent to talk to along with the food is great, some of the meals are large so be ready to take some food home for latter.

Well let's start with atmosphere. One cannot have a conversation at the table as the overall noise is well over necessary. And the decor is nit conductive to a family but more to a bar setting.Now the food, sadly I was served burnt food. Visually a off putting demonstration of poor standards. Putting that aside, flavors unfortunately took up the burnt aroma. What flavors that did come through weren't terrible so I would go as far to hope that under normal conditions it would be good.Service was not professional or well trained. Again more of a bar then a restaurant. Although I will not be returning, I have no doubt the many alcohol drinkers will.

Service and atmosphere are great! Not a bad place to watch a game. Beer and food a little on the pricey side and the dishes could be spicier with a tad more hot. However, decent flavor.
