CARL'S JR RESTAURANT

650 W NORTHERN LIGHTS BLVD , ANCHORAGE AK 99507

Yes, eat hereJudged 7/10/2026

Recent inspections mostly flag minor paperwork issues like missing handwashing signage and unlabeled frozen patties, not active contamination or improper temperatures. An older issue with sticky soda nozzles and no hot water at handsinks was noted in August 2024 but hasn't recurred in the most recent visits, suggesting it was addressed.
