Black Diamond Resort Co

If you have a car, come eat here! If you don't have a car, take a tour with Black Diamond Tour Co. (Specifically recommend the horse and wagon which includes dinner). One of the best dinners we had in Alaska. With the tour you get to sample almost everything they have to offer at the restaurant. Wish we would have had time to go again! (Pic of tour)

We wanted a quieter atmosphere our second night in Healy, so our hotel manager recommended this place. We got the antipasto platter to share, and were both delighted to finally see some fresh fruit!! It was a good mix of things (tbough I wish they had more toast points). My favorites were the prosciutto and olives. My entree was the shrimp linguine which was absolutley delicious. The sauce was fresh and garlicky, paired really well with the tomatos/spinach. The shrimp were big and tender. The staff are also super friendly. Highly recommend!

Delicious food & friendly service!! We had dinner at the Black Diamond and followed up the next morning with their ATV tour w/lunch. We were pleasantly surprised with the quality & amount of food. The servers were super friendly & attentive. Our dinners: fresh spaghetti squash with marinara & flavorful meatballs Shrimp linguini flavored w/lemon, wine, garlic sauce, artichoke & roast peppers Velvety gnocchi in a pesto cream w/grilled chicken & artichoke Rich meatloaf w/bbq sauce, garlic mashed potatoes & herbed roasted veggies Our ATV trip lunch was served family style & more than enough for the 6 of us BBQ ribs Roasted chicken legs Broiled salmon Hearty beef & bean chili Red potato salad Cole slaw Pasta salad Corn bread Corn on the cob And a yummy peach blueberry cake for dessert Igor, the manager, was the perfect host

Have to be honest, it's a little bit of a letdown. It has some great qualities: nice location, very good and speedy service (clearly they're not cutting corners when it comes to providing adequate wait staff). But the food was.... mediocre at best. I suppose i can only say about the food that I got: the half rack ribs. Portion was large, however the meat was really tough, as in leather tough. Completely the opposite of what ribs should be. The flavor was ok, but the texture was all wrong, just tough. The salad was decent and fresh. Maybe they'll do better with seafood, I hope. Just stay away from the ribs.

We visited here because it was right down the road from our hotel. When we first saw the menu we thought it seemed a bit pricey but we were wrong! The mozerella sticks were perfect with awesome marinara for dipping. My husband ordered a burger and he was pleasantly surprised when they asked how he wanted it cooked. It was done to perfection, obviously hand pressed and a generous portion of fries was included. Best burger he's had in Alaska in his opinion! Our daughter and I ordered the chicken Fettucini and the portions were huge and so delicious we didn't want to stop eating but had to because we were stuffed. We had enough left over for her to eat it again the next night and to feed all three of us the night after that. And it was just as delicious reheated. We will absolutely eat here again and highly recommend it to anyone visiting the area.

Pretty good meal. Friendly staff & nice casual dining area. Cod hoagie pesto chicken were good. Salmon salad & chicken fettuccine were good. Kids had HUGE portion of fries & mini hot dogs. Seafood nachos were good but came out when our dinners were ready so they didn't get appreciated. Good portion of them though & very pretty plate. Roasted turkey with cream cheese & blueberry chutney was a bit of a disappointment. Was sliced lunchmeat & wasn't a hot sandwich. Would be better if it was real turkey & a hot grilled sandwich. Good prices.
