One of my favorite places! Sit down theatre, every other row of seats has been taken out and long tables are in place. You order, sit down and your food is brought to you. There is a bar in the back with microbrews and wine. Family friendly depending on what movie is playing. Great food and very reasonable!

Getting around
Transportation
Anchorage has a bus system, Uber, Lyft, various taxi services, bike trails. However, I recommend renting a car while traveling in Anchorage. The city is very spread out.
