Owned by Tony Knowles, this restaurant is a hub of Anchorage civil life. You want to know what's going on, you come here. Breakfast, lunch and dinner served daily. Beer and wine available. Breakfast foods (including low fat items), bagels and sandwiches. A very good variety of large salads. This is dessert warning terrirory. Home made and high cal, these babies will keep you out of your favorate jeans. Sometimes crowded, but it's worth waiting for your food and a table. Although most hotels have very nice cafe type restaurants, if you can get away to the Downtown Deli, you will have a quality but less expensive meal.
I love the pancakes and cinnamon bread--but I gave up on wearing jeans a long time ago!
On the starting line for the Iditarod, obviously the place to be during the race.
