338 W 4TH AVE , ANCHORAGE AK 99501
The most recent visit found no violations, and prior issues (missing food worker cards on file, dirty soda gun nozzles, no test strips, exposed wood under the bar) were administrative or cleaning lapses rather than signs of active contamination, pest activity, or unsafe food temperatures. These are worth the restaurant fixing but don't indicate an ongoing serious health risk to diners.
No violations noted.
