Main Event Grill East - Anchorage, Alaska

Hubs and I saw the sign that said “voted best burger in Alaska,” and we thought, “Hmm, we’ll see!” Well, I tell you what! That burger is pretty darn good! I really can’t think of a better one I have had here except for maybe Rustic Goat? The food was so freaking good. We might eat here all the time if it were a bit fancier inside and they offered alcoholic beverages. That being said it looked like there were a ton of Sandos we wanted to try. Really couldn’t make the food any better!

My family and I recently visited Main Event Grill, and I must say, they have perfected the classic burger. The proportions, ingredient choices, and flavors were spot on, making it a true hit for us.

We were particularly impressed with their food truck burger. The balance of flavors and textures was remarkable. The fries, which we could season ourselves, were another highlight. They were crinkle-cut with a medium thickness, providing a satisfying crunch. Our youngest daughter couldn’t resist diving into a basket of these fries, and she loved their crispiness. The availability of spicy ketchup was a delightful bonus that added an extra kick to the meal.

We also sampled the buffalo chicken burger, and it was another winner. The consistent quality of the food is noteworthy. We did this meal with tots and it was another that Main Event was able to provide an awesome crunch to. While I enjoyed the blue cheese wedge, my wife wasn’t as enthusiastic about it, but we both agreed that we would order it again in some form.

The restaurant is situated in a pleasant shopping center, and the facility itself is clean and welcoming. We were surprised that it wasn’t busier, given the high quality of the food they are serving. We can definitely see ourselves becoming regulars and are excited to try more items from their menu.

In summary, Main Event Grill offers a fantastic dining experience with its classic and inventive burgers, well-executed sides, and a comfortable atmosphere.

Visited based on reviews… this place smelled amazing.. but the flavors did not satisfy unfortunately… I wish there was more garlic on the fries to taste it…
The burger was a bit on the dry side..
All in all this is a respectful 3 stars.. more than likely would not come again .. but it was not horrible

Been twice so far and both times the food was great. My family enjoyed their meals as well. I love the cheeseburger rolls. Burgers are great too.

One of best burgers I've ever had. Pattie packed with flavor, the buns are perfect for this type of burger and don't get soggy, toppings were amazing (there's a dozen things on the menu I wanted to try but settled on the Kenai burger which was 🔥) and the garlic fries are crispy and delicious. Definitely going to make it back there this week.

I have had to come on a bad night. Cold burgers and cold tater tots. Burger was overcooked as well so it tasted dry.

We were looking forward to trying out this place. When we arrived we were told to wait only to receive cold burgers and fries.

Dirty soda was great. Thankful it was because I needed it to wash down everything else.

We decided to try the #2 & #4 burger. They were huge a massive portion. I was only able to finish half. The burgers had really good flavors and you can even add more toppings for free. They have different sauces to go with the wedges and tots to add another punch of flavor. Definitely give them a try if you’re in the mood for a burger.
