We ordered the BBQ sample platter and my daughter had the Mac and Cheese. The Mac and Cheese was delicious according to my daughter. As far as the BBQ platter - save your money! Very sparse for $30 and the chicken wings and ribs were so dry. It was like having jerky. The ribs were like crispy bacon.

We don't usually do hotel restaurant. There is a $6.00 burrito breakfast down the street, but this is quite the restaurant.
We opted to give it a try. Buffet is $20, but breakfast with eggs, bacon, fruit or potato, and toast is $16 and it come with binoculars and a view. My usual home town has this costing $12, and the view and service was well worth the price.
Juan was our server and he was excellent. It was a great breakfast with a great view.

We stopped in after a long day looking for a bite to eat. This restaurant is within the Denali Bluffs Hotel. Service was fast and friendly.
I had a cheeseburger with waffle fries. The cheeseburger came with pepper cheese, brioche bun, pickles, tomato and onion. The burger was cooked perfectly but the tomato was not ripe and the pickles were of poor quality. (This was a $16 burger, at that price it should be awesome.) the fries were just ok.
My SO has a Cesar salad with smoked salmon. It was small and the smoked salmon was very salty. So salty that she couldn't finish it - It was $19.

Breakfast was excellent! They offer a buffet but because I am a food-a-holic I try to avoid buffets like the plague. We ordered an egg white omelet with fruit. We wanted some protein but they only had pork options (subtract a star). The servers were attentive and personable and came from around the globe. The servers offered a nice plate of pastries which included scones, muffins, and other pastries. All were fresh, moist and tasty (according to my husband, I am trying to cut back on carbs!).
The restaurant is attached to a resort but I will review that separately. Our food arrived quickly

The Mountaineer is an on-site restaurant for the Denali Bluffs Lodge so naturally we ate there several times over our short stay there. They offered a full breakfast buffet in the morning that had the usual variety of food that was tasty and satisfied our hunger; it does get busy at certain times as when everyone is trying to eat quickly and catch their bus tour so plan your meal times to avoid the rush if possible. Unfortunately I didn't take pictures of our orders because we were usually too hungry and I forgot. But they did have a variety of choices for just about anyone's taste

Disappointing dinner- we started off well- the special was French onion soup- I ordered that, expecting a traditional type of soup- Gruyere cheese on top full of onion goodness- what I got was a thin broth with a few onions in it and an aftertaste that reminded me of instant soup. The Mac n' cheese was awful, american cheese maybe? Then after we finished dinner we were left waiting an hour for the check- even after requesting it- we were tired after a long day with small kids and it was just the topper to a not great meal.
The beef brisket was good as was the broccolini. The Caesar salad

Was on a family trip with the six of us from our extended family. 2 in our 20s, the rest middle aged.
Crab melt: absolutely delicious. Great crust on the bread, tasty melty cheese, perfectly tangy spicy heapin helping of crab.
Free cornbread muffins with honey butter, yum!
Also got brocolini, nice and green and not overlooked or buttery. Family was very pleased with the pork shank, shrimp, and brisket. In-house sauces taste great and not your typical ketchup.
Portions are generous, most of us shared.
Atmosphere is warm, clean and inviting. Rustic theme. Fun oldies music playing.

We're staying at the Denali Bluffs Hotel--which is completely serviceable as a base for experiencing Denali. The food in the restaurant was fuel, nothing more, nothing less. I ordered the salmon which came with my choice of a couple of sides. I chose corn and cole slaw. Everything was edible, but since I'm in A.L.A.S.K.A., I would have expected the salmon to be better than what I could get in STL.
My family members ordered the fish n chips. I think the cooking oil was not so fresh, as the chips and the fish were really browned and heavy tasting. That was a bummer----again, in Alaska
