Crema's Take

This beloved Anchorage institution celebrates bold experimentation with their Chef's Choice concept, where first-timers get a curated surprise plate and can swap it out guilt-free if it doesn't land—a refreshing antidote to decision paralysis. The owner Derrick has cultivated a genuinely welcoming space where anniversary celebrations feel like community events (complete with roasted pig and free waffles) and the kitchen's confident hand extends to everything from flaky pastries to remarkably crispy, tender chicken that keeps people raving. It's the kind of place where the staff genuinely seems to want you to have the best experience possible, whether you're a regular looking for your usual or a visitor from New York discovering your new favorite spot.

First time going, and apparently it was their 6th year anniversary (March 1). There was a whole cart of free waffles and a roasted pig! + more. Some homeless people came in and they were more than happy to give them free food. Besides that, the waffles was delicious.

The photo is all that’s left of an excellent ‘chef’s choice’ as a first-timer! Their deal is that if you don’t like it after 2 bites, they will make you something else. I loved it and so did my wife! I’ve can’t wait to come back and get anything else off the menu! The chicken is so flavorful and tender! I love waffles and this place did it for me!

10/10 recommend this place for sure! Out here from New York and this is a definitely a must try. The chicken is so flavorful, crispy and tender. It was my first time so I used their chefs choice and they picked me something savory off the secret menu. Yall gotta try it!!

We decided to stop by on Christmas eve even though they were closed, to confirm their holiday hours. As I was photographing their closure sign to share, the owner Derrick came out and told me they were currently closed to cater an event, but he had just decided to also open the store with a free catered buffet. I informed him I was gluten free, and he offered to also make a special plate just to accommodate me. Incredibly generous, and everything was delicious. Gorgeous view of the mountains as well.

This is by far one of my favorite places in all of Anchorage. To begin, the costumer services was great. The host was very engaging and had them order our first plate (for first timers). If we liked it we kept it, but if not we can get anything else on the menu! Needless to say that, maaaan was the food delicious! The waffles where just👌and the chicken as well as the Mac and cheese! It was perfect!🤤 The place has a unique but nice vibe to it. All in all, the food was amazing! The costumer service was probably the best I have had in a long time (and I have pretty good costumer service often). Do yourself a favor and go eat at this place! It is way more than worth it!
