beckoa has pretty much hit the who's who of Alaskan restaurants on the head, and fortunately, most would be considered "good values" by Outside standards. As reported elsewhere recently by me:

Even a good meal at most of those won't set you back more than $30 (maybe $50 with drinks and tip at Simon's or Orso).
The only place that merits higher [New York-style] prices is the Crow's Nest at the top of the Captain Cook hotel, but that would hardly be considered "an 'Alaskan' dining experience."
Don't eat alone, though! Be sure to post your availability in
