About the restaurant
We are a great neighborhood secret on the south end of town offering a variety of fresh fun food from our open display kitchen. We have a hardwood oven for great appetizers and flatbreads while fresh Alaskan seafood and produce arrive daily. Be sure to check out our daily specials highlighting Chef Travis' creative inspirations. And of course, make sure to save room for our fantastic home-made desserts. We are proud recipients of the "Wine Spectators" Award of excellence 28 years in a row and feature a 250+ bottle wine list. Our speciality, though, is our hospitality. It truly brings us joy to welcome guests to our restaurant and help them have the best experience we can offer.

About the restaurant
You will know the moment you walk in that this is not your typical brew pub. The scent of the alder wood grill and wood fired oven, the energy of the sparking exhibition cooking line and the glow of the brewery delight your senses. The BrewHouse features rotisserie grilled meats, the freshest Alaskan seafood, brick oven pizza and award winning hand crafted ales. The BrewHouse is Anchorage’s downtown landmark restaurant-“Where Alaskans meet Alaskans”.

About the restaurant
Building a bridge between latin-fusion cuisine, a large hand-selected collection of Tequila, and the personality of beautiful Anchorage. Tequila 61° embodies what it means to blend Alaska with latin inspiration and flare.

Blending time-honored latin recipes with a modern twist, we fuse the perfect blend of spices with fresh ingredients like Alaskan seafood for entrées authentic in flavor and unique in presentation such as our fabulous Halibut Rey Filete or our Fajita Molcajete bowls.

Best of all, our mixologist and highly trained bartenders behind the bar are at the ready to help you find the perfect pairing with our craft cocktails and hand-picked varieties of Tequila and Mezcal.

Using reclaimed materials and unmatched attention to detail, we’ve built a charmingly rustic atmosphere where good food and good times are always abound.

Plenty of parking at the nearby Coho parking lot, a short walk from our front door.

This was our first experience at Tequila 61, and it did not disappoint. We had a quiet dinner on a Saturday night. All the food was delicious. Try the pork chop! Hands down the best pork chop we’ve ever had, it was so moist and similar texture to steak.
