I wonder how many people have stepped through these doors. Since inception.
I know I have countless time since 1970.
Does any one remeber World Cup 1973.
It was amazing. I remember as a 13 year old cars parked all tge way to merchant both sides when daylong was only parking lot.

We stopped in while enjoying the spring carnival in Girdwood .
They were extremely busy,but we were seated right away.
Our server was friendly and efficient.
The food was good,we especially enjoyed the fries.
A good place to eat when you are in the area.

We were super hungry and stopped in here on a whim since the place we had planned to go was closed. We ordered fried cauliflower bites, wings, a burger, bison chili and a couple of orders of grilled cheese & tomato bisque. Everyone loved their meal and was very happy we stopped here. We played pool after dinner and had fun watching the ski slopes from the warm dining area. It was a great vibe, reasonable prices and good food. Definitely a win win win.

Came here for an early dinner and it wasn't crowded, so was seated right away. The large windows provided a great view of the mountain while you eat. Since it was summer time, they were using the lifts and mountain for the bike park.

It was a slow time, so was able to seat ourselves and order at the bar. Once it's ready, they'll bring your food to the table. Ordered a few drinks while looking at the menu. Bar service was very friendly and prompt. For the meal, ordered the Sitz Burger and Buddha Bowl. Food came out fresh in about 15 minute. Food was pretty impressive for a bar and grill. Both were perfectly put together, well-plated, and tasted great.

Great place to come for lunch in Alyeska. It was nice viewing the mountain over good food and drinks.

amazing service, great pitchers of beer, but the worst sticky toffee pudding of my life. dry, dense, no ice cream, cold, and disgusting. the grilled cheese was great! the fries are amazing, fire and ice is good, the winter warmers are lovely, and the staff are the sweetest ever!

After skiing for a few hours, we absolutely had to stop by Sitzmark! I think this was the fastest service I've ever received at a resort, we ordered and our food came out within 5 minutes. The waitresses were very sweet and quick to accommodate. Prices are average for Alaska ($7-$20). We thought the decor was very cool and added positive vibes to the indoor area. You have to give Sitzmark a try!

I hope the Management reads this review.

As someone who has been a regular at Sitzmark in Girdwood for over a decade, it pains me to witness the decline in quality following the introduction of new management. My recent visit during the Christmas holiday weekend was a stark reminder of how much has changed – and not for the better.

The Sitzmark has always been known for its lively ambiance and satisfying comfort food, making it a beloved spot among both locals and tourists. In the past, ordering Nachos was a no-brainer. They were a crowd-pleaser, generously portioned and topped with a hearty serving of meat. However, this time, the nachos were a shadow of their former glory. The portion was meager, barely enough chips to be considered a meal, and, to my disappointment, they came without any meat. It's disheartening to see such a popular item reduced to this state.

The wings I ordered were tasty but not immune to the changes. They were noticeably overpriced compared to previous years. While I appreciate good quality food, the cost did not seem justified, especially considering the overall decline in the dining experience.

Another letdown was the cranberry juice, which was unmistakably watered down. It's small details like this that contribute to the overall dining experience, and it was disheartening to find even simple beverages compromised.

The Sitzmark holds a special place in the hearts of many Alaskans and visitors to our beautiful state. It's been a staple for good food, great company, and memorable moments. Unfortunately, the new management seems to be steering away from what made the Sitzmark a cherished establishment. The hike in prices, coupled with the downturn in food quality, is a troubling trend.

I sincerely hope that the management reconsiders their current approach. The Sitzmark is more than just a restaurant; it's a part of our community's fabric, a place where memories are made. It's disheartening to see it lose its charm and appeal. As a long-time patron, I can't help but feel that the new management is alienating its core customers, and I hope they take this feedback to heart to restore the Sitzmark to its former glory.

Everything was delicious. The buffalo chicken wrap actually had enough buffalo sauce so i didnt have to ask for extra, like i do at other restaurants. My husband enjoyed his tat-chos and my kids enjoyed their burger.
We tried Sitsmark, last year, but were very disappointed. The only reason we came back is because its very convinient to eat here (its close to the skiing area so you dont have to pack-up your gear or take off your ski boots).
Just by the change of food (taste, presentation, temperature) I would say that something definitely changed (maybe a new chef or manager?). Now, I want to come back and would recommend to anyone.
Only downside is that its super busy during lunch so you have to get there before the crowd, otherwise you'll be left standing (you'll have to wait for someone to leave and grab their table, before its taken, since its a self-seating restaurant).
