About

Building a bridge between traditional Mexican cuisine and the personality of beautiful Anchorage, Tequila 61 embodies what it means to embrace the best of both worlds. Blending time-honored recipes with a modern twist, we fuse the perfect blend of spices with fresh ingredients like Alaskan seafood for entrées authentic in flavor and unique in presentation. Best of all, our mixologists behind the bar are at the ready to help you find the perfect pairing with our craft cocktails, and hand-picked varieties of tequila and mezcal. Using reclaimed materials and unmatched attention to detail, we've built a charmingly rustic atmosphere where good food and good times are always abound.

Good Food - Awesome staff

Food was very good. But it was overpriced. Staff was friendly and service was fast. It is recommended to have reservation but we showed up as a walk-in. We waited less than 15 minutes.

Good food... over priced

Good food but nothing super special. Comparable to most modern Mexican food places to eat. I would say they are very overpriced with the amount of food you get. Atmosphere is awesome!

Amazing drinks and good food!

We didn’t expect such amazing margaritas and mezcal cocktails in anchorage! Service was great as well. Several good vegetarian dinner options too. Only complaint was when it was busy it was very loud.

This downtown restaurant in the heart of the city is special. Yes, by the name, you expect tequila and Mexican food but it is much more. For want of a better term, I call the food Mexican fusion. It serves Mexican food with a taste...More

Incredible surprise

Now my wife and I really like interesting and flavorful food, but today’s lunch was beyond good. Mexican-Latin fusion sounded like fun and this place was right on our track to the fabulous Anchorage Museum. The modern exterior might suggest a formulaic or chain influence....More
