Fine-dining prices for a neighborhood restaurant quality. We ate there two dinners and two breakfasts and both experiences should be separated. The breakfast was OK, not many options though. Sometimes it was hard to find the Omelette chef which would go "missing" multiple times, each time for 15 minutes or so, creating a long queue of people waiting for him. He also wasn't nice, actually he was very rude! He had a temper and when ordering (mentioning what to include in the Omelette) he would yel "Next!" in a rude way, he never smiled or looked happy, it is like he didn't want to be there at all, and it wasn't only for us, this was his temper with everyone, in both of the mornings we stayed there. Regarding dinner the prices are outrageous and totally not worth it. The quality wasn't consistent, neither the staff quality. Everything was nice and romantic in the first night, but not in the second night. Some of the items were missing from the menue the second night so we had to order the same things again. The steak was tasty the first night but not the second night, the same regarding the fish. Fine dining prices for average food, outrageously expensive. At the second night we didn't get a window table, which is ok, but the couple that entered directly before us did. That couple change their mind 1 minute after sitting there and asked to sit elsewhere and they let them. Since we were still sitting (didn't remove our coats yet), we asked whether we can sit in the place of that couple, near the window and they refused because they wanted to give that table's staff a rest (which didn't make any sense, since they assign it to that couple...), but 3 minutes afterwards they reassigned it to a different couple that just entered the restaurant...not nice at all. We stayed at Borealis Basecamp for two nights and we didn't have any options beside eating at this restaurant and they take advantage. That would be ok if the quality was good and consistent.

We stayed at Borealis Basecamp for 3 nights with no car, so had no choice but to eat at the one on-site restaurant. The breakfast buffet was actually quite good. They had a fantastic omelette bar, and I also enjoyed their yogurt and granola as well. The dinner was ok but small portions for the price. The Alaskan halibut and the pan seared duck breast were both quite good, though not $60 good. Some of our group preferred the burgers on the pub menu, which is served in the lounge area, and luckily the wait staff were able to accommodate us sitting in the Latitude 65 main dining room, as the lounge is set up for smaller groups with its mostly 2 person high top tables, with some of our group ordering off the Latitude dinner menu and others ordering off the pub menu.

I normally don't post bad reviews but this was really really bad. The food was hardly palatable. I'm not sure if the quality of the food was impacted by the recent storm but I couldn't even finish the special of the day. The best thing we had that day were the pre-bagged s'more kits in our room. Overpriced but you have no other dining options. Our server was clueless as to what was going on, she just kept talking to other tables while we waited. Lunch the next day was ok, but how can you screw up grilled cheese, a turkey sandwich, and bagged chips?! Very disappointed

The food is excellent, but the reason for the 3 stars is it's way overpriced, especially for portion sizes, probably due to trapped audience. I normally only see this at high end Michelin star restaurants, which this is not.

Food is good. Make sure you tell them you are local to get 10% off. Food is bit pricey, but I don't mind paying extra for the chef they have out there. Ambiance is good minus one big factor, which is that it smells of fuel in that yurt due to their Toyo stoves. Gives me a headache many times. Service has been mostly great each time we go with the exception of one server but that's to be expected anywhere.

Latitude 65 restaurant was a bad experience. We were excited to dine here but the service was poor, the food was either too sweet or salty), and overall didn’t have a good experience.Ambience: The view from the corner seats is really nice. The space is heated so it’s warm and cozy.Breakfast: The breakfast is good with a live omelette bar but they ran out of it on 2nd dayDinner: Disappointing service. The service is outright bad. We tried our best to cheer ourselves up but it just got bad to worse.After having paid almost twice the cost than in other restaurants and there being no other option around, we expected better from them!

Latitude 65 is more than just a meal, it is an experience! The restaurant is inside a roomy Alaskan yurt located on top of a hill that offers incredible views out of the expansive windows. I am still thinking about watching the gorgeous sunset while we ate dinner. That isn’t even the best part. The food is fantastic. Chef George Easter is truly a master of showcasing locally sourced fresh food and flavors. Everything we ate was delightful. We had appetizers, main course and dessert. Highly recommend it!

Beautiful view, absolutely great service but the food isn’t worth the price. We ate 2 dinners and 1 lunch, and it was overall food. The steak was chewy and It didn’t had and salt. For a 70$ dish you expect having at least well done potatoes, some were raw, some overcooked on one side. Really disappointing. The salmon was fine, but the burger, risotto and sandwiches were literally like a average restaurant in America, for a much more expensive price.

Over all we did enjoy our experience but I would think that the experience would have been at least more consistent for the price. I appreciate what they are trying to do with the food but on the night we went it just was not executed well. The scallop appetizer did not have a grain of salt in it and was just hard to taste because it was so bland. The soup on the other hand was very nice and seasoned well. My wife ordered a medium rare steak and it was definitely rare at best she had to just eat the outside of the steak. My poached halibut was over cooked and dry and also needed more salt. My bison that was sold to me as “tender and melt in your mouth” was both very dry and chewy. The hostess that sat us was stand-offing and did not make us feel welcome. Our waitress on the other hand was a delight and very friendly and was the nicest part of the evening. I would have loved to be excited to come back, we were excited to go. But for $220 for 2 and the food be highly mediocre it’s hard to say I’ll be back.

Latitude 65 is an excellent fine dining establishment. The staff is friendly, and the chef is superb. The window views are relaxing.

The food tonight was amazing, the chef has a way with combining flavours that works. The mission fig and kale salad was fresh and well presented, also delicious. The daily special was Sable fish, served with polenta, dragon fruit puree, an interesting aioli, and grilled zucchini. The fish was mild and cooked perfectly, the rest of the meal complimented it perfectly,The cheesecake was extremely smooth.You won't be disappointed!

We had lunch & supper here for several days. The food was out of this world! Everything was unlike food in the lower 48 states. Even the sweet potatoes were something I can’t recreate! I had Kobe for the first time & the chef set the bar high for the next time I try it. This is only on the menu when it’s available & is the real deal flown in from Japan. There were 2 Hollywood actors eating beside us & one told the chef he has eaten Kobe all over the world & his is the best. The views are stunning, just like the food!
