The story
Seven Glaciers sits at the top of Alyeska Resort in Girdwood, Alaska — accessible by aerial tram and perched high above the Chugach Mountains. The name says it all: on a clear day, seven glaciers are visible from the dining room, making the setting as much a part of the experience as anything on the plate.
The restaurant has earned Wine Spectator's Best of Award of Excellence, a recognition that speaks to the seriousness of its wine program alongside its American cuisine. That kind of distinction is rare in a destination this remote, and it signals a commitment to quality that goes well beyond the dramatic surroundings.
Getting to Seven Glaciers is itself part of the occasion — the resort tram carries guests up the mountain before dinner even begins. What awaits is an American dining experience shaped by Alaska's landscape, where the wilderness outside the windows is not backdrop but context. For visitors to Girdwood and Alyeska Resort, a table here is among the most distinctive dining options in the state.
