* Gluten Free Burger Buns here! *
Tucked away in the Glenn Square strip mall, is an open and much more spacious than I thought, looking from the outside, restaurant. I got some art supplies from across the street and was incredibly hungry. I decided to come into Kriner's Burgers & Pies to see what was available. When I parked, I saw a few outside tables with flowers on each with couples and families enjoying the beautiful sunny afternoon.
Staff were friendly to me and their menu was on a large sign on the wall behind the register that has simple options with a list of FREE toppings to choose however many you like with your burger. Gluten-Free Burger Buns are $1.99 extra, but trust me, these are one of the best Gluten-Free Burger Buns in Anchorage! I'm wondering if they make them because they were delicious and NOT sad and flat like many gluten free store bread items! I got a #3 (bacon cheeseburger) with a few toppings including their candied jalapenos and sauteed mushrooms. These candied jalapenos were sweet with heat that were not over powering and a great flavor addition.
Instead of fries, I got tots with my order. I highly recommend the tots. These were so flavorful and crispy on the outside and perfectly soft and cooked on the inside. To jazz it up even more, Kriner's Burgers & Pies has many different dipping sauces to choose from. I got the sweet and spicy ketchup. Again, not too overbearing on the spice but just enough.
I ordered a vanilla milkshake with my order because, why not? I was not disappointed. Excellent food and drinks and I highly recommend Kriner's Burgers & Pies for anyone looking for a solid American meal.
