The Crow’s Nest sits atop the Captain Cook Hotel in downtown Anchorage, and its name is an homage to the top of the tallest mast of ships like those Captain James Cook sailed into Alaska in the late 18th century. The restaurant boasts 360-degree views of the entire surrounding area, just like a crow’s nest would. Food-wise, this place boasts a great menu which could be limited to some people but a good selection of fish and meat. They have a very good wine list. It's a fantastic option if you want to celebrate a special occasion.
