Red Lantern - Fairbanks

Great birthday lunch with my 7 year old boy. Portions were nice, sidewinder fries were great and awesome banana dessert that the little punk was gracious enough to share with dad :

Great service and food.Our waiter Damon was awesome.

Food is GREAT! Unique flavors! Gotta love it! Waitresses are very nice!

Rock fish was great, prime rib was not good too tough to enjoy. Service was slow on our busy evening, pricey but convenient as there aren't many nice restaurants nearby.

This was a little further to walk to from my room at the Springhill in the current weather, but well worth it! I did expect fancier food, but I also expected 'fancier prices ' being that it 's inside a hotel. What I found was a welcoming bar, with an easy to talk to host, good food and reasonable prices. The beer selection is a little low right now because of COVID, but they have Alaskan brews in bottles. For dinner I opted for the Alaskan Halibut, followed by some butternut squash soup that was perfect for the -20° temps I walked through to get here. The food was really good! The bartender knows this area really well too, and he was able to give me some recommendations of places to check out while I 'm here. All in all a good night out. Definitely a place I would recommend going to! Only downside I have to mention is that I was originally given a dirty glass to our my beer into. It looked like it had sat from not being used, not that I was given a previously used and unclean glass. But I still decided to drink straight from the bottle while I was here and had a great time!
