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.

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”.

As always, dinner at the Crow's Nest was wonderful. The food was great and the service absolutely perfect. What was out of the ordinary, however, was the superb treatment we received at the hands of management. There was a problem with our reservation (not the restaurant's fault) and the Crow's Nest solved it for us, gracefully and graciously. It could have been a disaster and they took care of us and made us look good in front of our clients. It's such a special place, but on this visit the front-of-house people went above and beyond. Thank you, Crow's Nest!

Contemporary Latin

Anchorage

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.
