Da J3rk Spot in Anchorage

Update: you can see from this owner's response exactly what I'm talking about with the over-defensiveness and the speeches. This is unfortunate and will continue to hold this business back. Thank god no one in my home had a shellfish allergy, someone could have been hospitalizedThe foos here is decent, but the prices are intense. $19 for a pasta dish when competing local businesses charge $12.00-$14.00. I asked them to sub shrimp for chicken on my pasta and they gave it to me with shrimp. I didn't know until I got home 20 mins later, as the cashier didn't feel it was important to mention and no one called me. I called when I realized, and their position was that the substitution "wasn't possible." Didn't call me, didn't text me, nothing. I've noticed in the last 8 months or so that the owner likes to go on big rants on social media, soI almost feel bullied into not leaving this review. I own a small business, I support businesses standing up for themselves and setting boundaries, but calm communication is what's missing here.A simple phone call stating the substitution wasn't possible would have saved me time, money, and saved my relationship with the business. I do hope they're able to make a sea-change, but after our 3rd attempt to eat here, i think it's a pass for a while.

Absolutely incredible food and wonderful, friendly service. The jerk sauces are amazing and everything is fresh and cooked to order. If you don't eat meat, or even just want to eat less meat, the vegetarian menu is the best in the area. Da J3rk Spot has become a lunchtime favorite of mine!

Fantastic Carribean flavor in Alaska. What more could you ask for?
