"Had really high hopes for this place since of the awesome reviews and I know of a few people who recommended this place. I ordered 2 chicken tacos and my husband got the two asada taco combo plate with an extra asada taco on the side. SUPER SMALL TACOS for 2$ each!! The flavors where for sure there BUT the asada meat and chicken meat where horribly dry and some peices burnt. The meats where flavored nicely but what's the point if there dry ? The rice was way overcooked and mushy, litterally my husband was making a sculpture outta them lol, The pinto beans where basic. The tortillas where semi hard and not fresh. The chucks of onions inside the tacos where huge and not chopped finely , so biting into one throws off the flavors and all you taste is intense onion. Skimmy on the cilantro. Guacamole on the tacos tasted good and was a refreshing touch. Salsa was on point, especially the green ones. Grilled onions at the salsa bar are not very grilled at all and again are in huge think chucks. Would like to see cilantro at the bar too. price for both meals was a little over 15$ so it was affordable but for the quality I could have gotten way better elsewhere for the same price. The Jamaica drink was very good and the highlight of my meal. The gentlemen who took our order was super nice too But... Wheres the passion and love in the food? Overall a disappointment and we will probably not return as it was nothing to ride home about. Such a shame cause they seem like they have good potential.."

"We 've gotten take out twice and dined in about eight times. We had the mixed plate (x7 , chicken pot pie w/ hearts of palm, corn, and olives (x3 , Minas favorite tropeiro beans (x5 (the beans and collard greens with a fried egg on top make an excellent breakfast next day too , carne de panela (x3, stunning , chicken and yuca fries, almondegas (meatballs , chicken and okra stew, moqueca (coconut seafood stew x2 , costelinha (pork ribs over grits , feijoada (x3; with yucca fries, collard greens, and rice--it was my absolute favorite , aus wagyu picanha with yuca fries and collard greens, red sangria, white sangria (x9 , passionfruit mousse, coconut flan (x2 , coconut clove beijinho (x2 , rice pudding, and chocolate truffles (best truffles ever . I 've loved every item! I think one of my new favorites is the tropeiro beans which is a type of toasty-cassava-beans-pork dish originating from Minas Gerais. It is very unique to Woodspoon. Everything is unique (if you haven 't really had Brazilian food before, especially from Minas Gerais yet everything seems familiar. My s/o said that the carne de panela was a 'ratatouille moment ' which gave him a flash back to his childhood even though he never had that dish before. My ratatouille moment was eating the feijoada, it reminds me of stews my mom made growing up. I liked how the ambiance was very pleasant but not stuffy--I could pick the meat off the bones and not feel completely embarrassed. Woodspoon isn 't another Italian or sushi place and as a result makes a memorable date night. The chef and owner Natalia is very friendly and made us feel like we were having dinner in her home. She came up to our table and pointed out the items in the mix plate and at the end I remember (embarrassingly that she said 'lime only goes on the kibe ' after I sort of juiced it on all of them (oops lol . The dining experience was probably one of the best I 've had in a very long time. I can 't wait to come back and try more items (picanha and grelhas are next! . A note: when you get take out, I 'd reheat some items (especially the mix plate pot pie yuca fries in the oven/convection/ 'air fryer '. I love this place so much I bought a passion fruit tree and collard green tree just so I can re-create some items at home."

"I had an outstanding breakfast experience! The eggs benedict were the best I've had in Anchorage in a long time. It featured a generous serving of smoked ham (which, while not traditional Canadian bacon, was even better), perfectly poached eggs, a nicely toasted English muffin, crispy hash browns, and a light, flavorful hollandaise sauce with just the right hint of lemon to elevate the dish. It truly was exceptional. Two out of the three in our group ordered the eggs benedict, and we both polished our plates clean. It was that delicious! If I had more room, I definitely would have ordered a second plate as dessert. Despite being quite busy and having a server in training, the service was timely, accurate, and delivered with a cheerful attitude and smile. Great job, Kava! --- On a different occasion, I visited for a mid-morning Saturday breakfast that was decent but not exceptional in quality, although the portions were substantial. If you enjoy average diner breakfasts, you won't be disappointed, especially when your server brings out a massive steak platter with omelet or eggs, hash browns, breakfast meat, and a side of three pancakes. There were plenty of options to choose from; our server recommended the breakfast fried rice and the Reuben omelet, but I opted for the reindeer sausage instead. The eggs in my omelet (made with at least four) were slightly overcooked, but the hash browns were crispy, and the reindeer sausage was generous. The highlight of the meal was our server—bright, energetic, and very competent. She efficiently managed four different orders and quickly corrected one mistake. I look forward to coming back to try the lunch menu!"
