Your journey begins with a tram ride 2,300-feet upwards from the base of the Alyeska Resort, gliding over the slopes of Mount Alyeska to arrive at Seven Glaciers. The inviting dining room features dark cherry wood walls and large picture windows framing peaks, glaciers, and the surrounding wilderness. Chef Tanner Exposito excels at showcasing full flavors and elegant presentations in his dishes. The menu, like the view, changes seasonally, but is anchored as much as possible in local ingredients. Weekend skiers can enjoy an elegant lunch break and warm themselves over a bowl of pesto-roasted scallop bisque. A flight of cheeses may be followed by chilled vine ripened tomato gazpacho with shaved Asiago and Alaskan king crab. If you’re feeling adventurous, try the alder smoked elk served with tender cherry bacon gnocchi in a brown butter sauce. Vegetarian and gluten-free consumers will find plenty of options here as well. There's a full bar and an extensive wine list. For the grand finale, try pairing an ice wine with Baked Alyeska, a delightful concoction of caramel nougat Bavarian with milk chocolate shavings and caramelized pecans surrounding a flourless chocolate cake center and swaths of meringue.
