Customer Reviews

Went out for drinks but ended up getting some appetizers as well. The drinks were very good and not super expensive (they also have a pretty decent number of options for cocktails). The calamari was good too. The mussels were cooked well just wished they were a little bigger. And the leafy greens with the ground beef filling😭 sooo good! The service was great! We had not made a reservation but the staff still looked to accommodate us as quickly as they could, maybe a 5 minute wait. But the host and waiters where phenomenal. I will say the place smelled just a bit funky when we first entered but I think that’s because someone has a dish with some sort of sea food on it. But aside that it’s a wonderful place!

We had a wonderful dinner here. It’s classic low key Greek ambience. The hostess was so nice, as was our server, Kristie. My Rack of Lamb was delicious and the broiled Halibut was very good. The Twister IPA was great and the Alexander Valley Cab Sav. Excellent. The bathrooms (esp the woman’s) are legendary!! So clean and cool! My only opportunity area is that the Greek Salad is a modest upgrade ($3) vs the one included in the dinner, but it had only 1 Kalamata olive, and no red onion, and too many green peppers. Still, this is one of the best dinners in Fairbanks! VictorB

We are on cruise, had a stop here & my hubby & myself decided to make a small trip to downtown Fairbanks. Like many small towns, we walked around saw the Town Square small shops & stumbled upon Bobby Downtown to eat dinner. Little did we know that this restaurant serves Greek food! We visited Athens Greece a few years back & fell in love with Greek food. We are from German descent with dinners of meat, potatoes/ gravy & green beans. So this dinner was refreshing, a delight & most of all yummy! Big plus our waiter was always at our call! Great service. Many thanks & found Fairbanks a delight to visit & the temperature was marvelous! Donna Geisinger from KC,MO.

I came in to Bobby’s after I was walking around downtown looking for a good hearty dinner place. I was immediately drawn in by the delicious smell coming from their direction. I ordered the Halibut which was served with a side salad, rice seasonal veggies(carrots and potatoes) and of course the halibut which was cooked to perfection. The staff was amazingly attentive and friendly, the inside decor is gorgeous and the place was clean. It’s a little on the pricey side but what can you do, it’s Alaska.In my opinion Bobby’s was pretty hooked up the portion was good and not exaggerating in size.

My recent visit to Bobby's Mediterranean Restaurant in Fairbanks was outstanding! The food was full of flavor and absolutely delicious. The portions were generous, and be warned: the appetizers are huge—a great value, but plan to share! Everything we ordered was fantastic. The atmosphere was relaxed and enjoyable, making for a lovely evening out. What really made the night was the exceptional service provided by our waiter, Brian. He was attentive, helpful, and truly made the experience fun and enjoyable. If you're in Fairbanks and craving authentic, flavorful Mediterranean cuisine with great service, Bobby's is the place to go!

On our first night in FAIRBANKS we found BOBBY'S DOWNTOWN, and were seated immediately at a white linen table. I chose a few beers from their extensive drink menu. My wife ordered a ridiculously delicious Moussaka served with carrots, while I ordered a beef tenderloin gyro, served with potatoes & veggies. Both dishes were fantastic & if we had more time in Fairbanks we would've gone back again, because everything on their menu looks awesome.
