31 Best American Restaurants in Fairbanks

“Always delicious food - no matter what you get - with great service!“

“This was a stop on our trip to the arctic. I am not going to be negative on a review for a restaurant like this one. There are many folks thankful that it is there. It has a lot to offer from a meal to gas and maybe a souvenir. Truckers appreciate the location and a chance for a break from the road.“

“One of our favorite places. Very good food, friendly wait staff . The music sucks though.“

“If you want food to go and don't want to pay a $6 cover charge to the bar. You have to go through the side door. This takes you to the back of the kitchen. I've seen many kitchens. Some clean some not so clean.This was right in the middle. But dirty kitchens is where some of the best food comes from. Food was very good.I just wish I didn't see where it came from.“

“Driven by many times but have never been inside. Stopped in yesterday for some lunch. very tastey place. I will definitely be back.“

“smells bad. mean people. 0/5“

“The food is great. Our waitress was sweet. Waiting for our food, was nearly an hour. BOTH bartenders completely ignored me, much less, served me. We are locals, that make it in several times a year. The service has gotten progressively slower, and waitstaff seem disorganized. We love this place, and we realize, it's for sale. Hmm. First thing I would do? DITCH the DOORDASH BS, and concentrate on SERVING the customers who actually drive out.“

“If you think you know good nachos, think again. These are next-level. Hands down, the best nachos I’ve ever had!“

“10-15-24: I can no longer list this as one of the top 5 biscuits and gravy places in Fairbanks area. Today's meal was not pleasant. Gravy was good but biscuits were not biscuits, but a cornbread style that was very dry. I was very disappointed.

Best biscuits and gravy in Fairbanks! Great food and great service!“

“Thank you to the staff and patrons of Tony's Sports Bar for the great time last Sunday! We were visiting from Wisconsin and stopped in to cheer on the Packers💚💛We felt very welcomed and received tips to visit the classic car museum which my FIL loved!! Alaska was a bucket list trip for us, but if we ever return, I would love to stop in at Tony's again!!“

“We loved this restaurant!! Extraordinary customer service & great food. Definitely order the cheese curds from the Appetizer menu. Well done, Brewster’s!!“

“Just left this location on Valentines Day from out of state and food was impeccable! So grateful this restaurant took my reservation last week via Facebook messenger. Effortless! Great service!“

“Went there today! Food was great!!!“

“The Bakery Restaurant is not a good place to eat the new owners are not good ppl and the food there is the worst place 😫 to eat the cooks always missing up the orders its always cold the coffee is cold too“

“Blue Roof is our Saturday spot. Literally, every Saturday because the burgers are the best in town, and the fries are the eighth wonder of the world! YUM.“

“Landed here on our Holland America sea/land tour“

“I can’t say enough about this place. It helped provide entertainment, great food, and great drinks while we waited for our next Alaskan adventure during our week long visit. I have to give a very special shout-out to Denaeuh. If you get a chance, don’t leave Fairbanks without spending time with her at the bar in Pike’s Landing restaurant. She’s a genuine person with outstanding customer service and hospitality. Her drinks, food recommendations, service, and conversation were excellent! If/when we come back, we will seek out this restaurant and service with Denaeuh. Overall… I highly recommend. It’s a great place!“

“Brewster's for another Win, family visiting from Texas just got off denali train at 8pm went to Brewster with out calling ahead all 8 of us were seated and fed delicious food - they just loved the halibut - Thanks keep up good stuff“

“Amazing and quick customer service, everyone is so nice when we visit.
We’re from Oregon, but visit a couple times a year to see family. While we’re here, we’ll spend several breakfasts with my aunt at this restaurant.
I believe it’s more flavorful than most American diner foods.“

“the food is always good but heaven forbid you want any salad dressing with your salad.... wife and I have ordered salads several times from them request dressing each time and it never comes... aside from that great place good food and fast service just no dressing with your salads“

“You won't be disappointed and I've had lunch all over town....?“

“The soup is always on point!!! Changes daily but has never disappointed. Bev is such a joyous bartender and has such a great personality, eye for detail, and keeps regulars like me in mind.
This place is the Cheers of fairbanks IMO I love it.“

“We had a great girls day brunch here!
Our server Kayla was AMAZING! So friendly! Happy to answer questions! So patient with me and my unusual requests! 5 stars for Kayla!
It’s just to bad it was her last day because I would have loved to be served by her again!“

“I dont eat iut often, maybe 1-2 every other month. This was my first time eating here and hopefully this was an off day for the cooks. I ordered cheese curds as an appetizer, and a cheesesteak with fries as my meal. Both the cheese curds and fries were extremely greasy, and had no seasoning at all. They were both hot and fresh, I just think they tried to stretch the life of their oil. Both the sandwich and the service was great. I'll try it again sometime in the future.“

“5 stars, the food is so good and the drinks are even better. Def a go to when you have the munchies“

“Had some of this amazing pizza while at Pioneer Park. It was amazing, best pizza I’ve had in quite a while, with delicious toppings. Good price too! We will be back.“

“Best anniversary dinner I could have asked for being at Latitude 65! Chef curated a perfect menu for the Meals on Wheels fundraiser. Everything about this restaurant is perfection. Absolute best place to eat in Fairbanks, no competition. Will definitely become regulars when they reopen in August. Thank you to everyone at Latitude 65 who made our experience memorable last night!“

“Can't comment on the food but Alexandra the bartender absolutely made the last night of our hard earned vacation worth it. It was undoubtedly busy, but she was hustling with CVS receipt long tickets, handling the bar and two restaurants by her self. To the management, you needs a barback. Several tables were upset with service but as far as I could tell it was a staffing issue, not the employees themselves. Thank you for a fine farewell from Alaska!“

“We've been eating here as a family of 5 for years. I have never taken the time to write a review but wanted to after last nights service. We've had great service first off all the time and the manager of The Banks has gone above and beyond for us a few times. We are vegan so it's always nice to find a place in town that has options for us. Last night's server in the bar was the most authentic , kind and funny gentlemen we've ever had. He interacted with our children as if they were adults, quick, efficient. It's always great having respect go both ways when it comes to service and the Banks has just that. The drinks also always are on point!“

“I expected the worst based on the reviews, but the food isn't so bad. They are good even somtimes

The food selection of the breakfast menu can get repeative, though I wish they Gatorade drinks instead of soft drinks.“

“Food was great, we had cheesesteaks, service was fast and friendly. Only thing I can really complain about is the bartender used Bloody Mary mix instead of tomato juice for the red beer. Snuck a peak in the kitchen and it was cleaner than mine (figure that one out) but we enjoyed our dinner.“
