“We had their soups today. It was delicious as always. They provided great customer service! The bread is my fave.“

“Great tiny little coffee place. I love the little shop, and the coffee was excellent“

“Nice area, but very hard to find parking. I like the outside seating and cozy chill inside atmosphere. The bartenders were very nice and accommodating even though they were very busy on a Friday night. The dreamsicle cider was such a treat.“

“Went on a busy Thursday, the place was packed but the waiter/ bartender was very tentative and helpful. It's was a nice experience. The appetizer that I had was very flavorful and tasty it was a cheese salmon bake. I don't remember the real name. But if you're looking for a nice Irish place to get you Jameson and Guinness drink 🍸 😉 on this the place to be!!! Good atmosphere 👌🏽“

“The food was so delicious. we were in a big group and had a taste of many things on the menu. Lucky us. Another big plus was the staff. Congenial , well versed, and real professional. Even though there was a big crowd they looked relaxed. You didn't feel rushed. A great place to enjoy delicious food.“

“They have some of the best subs ever! They are along time favorite of mine.“

“It's been a while since I reviewed Side Piece Kitchen and I wanted to share that they have consistently have been superb each visit. I got really excited for the last week of August's specials as they were nostalgia blasts featuring dirt cup cheesecakes and teriyaki dippers which were my favorite thing to get in my school lunches. I had to practically beg my boyfriend to go and eventually just told him that they had a cosmic brownie cheesecake and he started telling me to get ready to go.

We had an event to go to at 11am and arrived around 9:30-40amish and there was a line out the door but the staff here are always on point in ensuring there isn't too long of wait that we were efficient on time and able to dine in (we were ready to eat on the way up). The food was absolutely delicious, never had a bad experience here. I absolutely loved the presentation of the lunch meal and the teriyaki dippers were fantastic. My friend tried the Baca and said it was fantastic too! I also love that they have a fun T-shirt design contest and look forward to seeing the top three best designs. It's incredible how these guys are always able to come up with amazing specials, friendly service, and offer just great vibes with each visit. I feel like we visit them at least once a month, and honestly if I could I would try to come every week. We appreciate that they have a dog friendly patio. As a long time supporter of Side Piece Kitchen, I am so glad they are local, supportive of the community and small businesses, serve truly some of the best food in the country, and are just overall amazing people.“

“Wonderful classes, talented readers, and the newer vendors coming in are breathing in some freshness! I love the tea- sunset in Seattle is delicious and a favorite that I highly recommend! Love when they throw outside events too- I attended a fun broom making class- outside and that was a great time! Would love to see more herbs available! Really love this space and will continue to support!“

“This spot is awesome. Great pub vibes, awesome service and a great variety of delicious dogs and sides. I got the Big Lebowski and the Rainier Reuben with a side of Mac and cheese. The big lebowski is fantastic with the caramelized onions and peppers, the spicy mustard needs a bit of balance however, I added some saurkraut to it which did the job nicely and I would highly reccomend either that or dill pickle as an add on for this dog.

The Rainier was the star of the show though. It feels like a warm hug for your mouth and is definitely my top pick if I'm back here.

The Mac and Cheese is also phenomenal with a great texture and flavor that leaves you wanting more.“

“Come and try some of the BEST burgers in Tacoma! Do not sleep on their smash burger version, stunning and tasty. The OG burgers still slay and the new items look amazing! Just eat HERE!“

“Having the ice cream cart was amazing for my mom's 90th birthday celebration - it was loved by everyone! My only negative was that we had picked our four flavors a month in advance and at the last minute were told two weren't available. But the replacement flavors were great, and I would highly encourage using All City Ice Cream.“

“The Tacoma Brew is a staple in our home! ✌🏻“

“Tried it for the first time today. Got the Caramel Cinnamon Apple Butter Latte Hot. OMG TO DIE FOR 🤤 definitely will keep going back!“

“Love the people that are there. Makes you feel at home with some great soul food. And OMG the food is great! A must!“

“Mad Hat Tea Company is an absolute gem in Tacoma. The atmosphere is cozy, welcoming, and full of charm, with an incredible tea selection that makes you want to slow down and stay awhile.
I especially want to give a shoutout to Maia, who provided genuinely excellent customer service. She was incredibly knowledgeable about tea, answered every question thoughtfully, and made the whole experience feel warm and personal. You can tell she truly knows and cares about what she does, and her recommendations were fantastic.
Whether you’re a serious tea lover or just curious to explore, this place is worth a visit. Great atmosphere, great tea, and genuinely wonderful people.“

“First time in. Went with the Turkey Cran sandwich. It's a winner! Take my money and keep the food and drink coming!“

“very cute, warm and welcoming atmosphere, their food is simply amazing! I have never been let down. Great customer service, amazing food options for just about anyone! I highly recommend the.“

“I don’t know how she gets her crusts so flaky and tender, but the sweet potato turnovers and pies are the best I’ve ever had! The lemon cheesecake is to die for! Peach cobbler is divine. I’m about to tuck into a mixed berry pie and I have no doubt it will be amazing. Stop by and pick up something - you won’t regret it! Love this local gem!“

“Always great pizza and fantastic beer options.“

“I stumbled upon this gem Sunday and I have to say we love everything about this place. From the desserts to the kindness of everyone. We got a little of everything. I can’t wait to go back into town to try more stuff. Our drive home back to Beaverton never tasted so sweet! Thanks guys!!! PS the Asian Ice is a must try! Soooo delicious!!! 😋😋😋“

“I have never had pizza to go and went there tonight. The second I walked in Patrick, Danni and Giuseppe were so warm, welcoming and quite the comedians! They suggested a glass of wine while I waited for my pizza so I went and had a glass of wine. The bartender was just as amazing as them! Hands down the best customer service in a long time and the pizza was outstanding! I'll definitely be back! Thank you :)“

“If you're a fan of spicy food or just looking for a great chicken spot, Dave's Hot Chicken is worth a visit. It's a straightforward concept executed exceptionally well, making it a standout in the crowded fast-casual market. Just be sure to know your spice tolerance before ordering!“

“It's delicious. There is a beautiful boss and good customer service. This drink is the best I have ever drunk. It is beautifully decorated and clean. There are children's stools and children's toys, which are suitable for bringing children and dating couples.“

“Lovely atmosphere! Great cider, prices and overall awesome!“

“Fantastic community cafe with wonderful coffee, staff and local artists who can showcase their creativity and work.“

“VK-Viet Kitchen Restaurant HAS THE BEST PHO EVER😋 IDC what ya say! I've tried the others and NONE of them compare!! SOOO GOOD!!“

“Best breakfast sandwiches ever!!! Best vibe & staff too!“

“It was excellent, but it is a Hispanic run location, and there is a huge menu. You can get lost unless you know what you're looking for. And 2 meals ( carne asada Burrito & Chicken Quesadilla with drinks came to almost $50 (before tip)“

“There's great bands, the most entertaining and fun events, delicious food, tasty drinks, and a laid-back atmosphere.“

“My kids and I were craving for boba. Our favorite boba place closed months ago so I googled this one and said why not this place. I was not disappointed. My son loves mango slushie and not really into boba. He rated it as 8/10 because it DID NOT taste watery. My daughter had the taro boba and was very happy with the amount of boba in the drink. They have a good portion/ratio and that makes it worth the price. I tried the strawberry taro but not really a fan. I will definitely coming back to try other flavors.“

“For the first time I had the Chicken Ceasar salad sandwich. Recommend 10/10. Delicious!“

“Nice relaxed feel to the restaurant.“

“Beautiful coffee shop!! So many windows to sit by and the coffee was incredible. They have lots of flavors to choose from. I got an iced cookie butter latte with oat milk and I was shocked at how good it was. There is also a piano for people to play on and some older gentleman were playing the guitar and harmonica. Wonderful atmosphere. Would definitely come back here!“

“I was there with my husband and some friends it was an amazing beautiful place very clean our waitress was esmeralda very sweet girl the food was great we definitely recommend this place for everyone we will definitely be back and all our friends and family“

“GREAT BEERS AND LOVED THE AMBIENCE! Would definitely recommend and go again!“

“My husband and I stayed here. It was absolutely one of the best nights away I've had in a long time. It was so quiet and peaceful.
The hospitality was great the wine was delicious and the overall atmosphere was just the thing we needed.
Will definitely go here again.“

“Vietnamese coffee………………….“

“Our favorite spot to grab a bite in the McKinley neighborhood! Best pizza in Tacoma, amazing service from front and back of house, great prices. Times are tough and this is one of the few places we can enjoy a great meal without breaking the bank. Nothing beats an ice cold Heidelberg and a Parky’s pizza.“

“This review is based off of the one time I've gone. I went after work with my colleagues, they stayed and had their food, I got mine to go. All of them enjoyed their dishes. When I got home and ate my food, I was very surprised.
Because of where I live, I eat a lot of Vietnamese food. This place was definitely different. First of all, the staff were very nice. Secondly, the noodle salad was unlike others I've had. The highest praise goes to the shrimp. I've never had a shrimp roll as good as this was. The ingredients were fresh and delicious. I will definitely come back to try more dishes. I understand the hype now.“

“They make my coffe perfect every time! They always listen when i say i need more of something and they're always SO sweet and friendly. I'm excited that this stand is right next to my work!“

“I had a great night at Hank’s enjoying the tasty French dip and fresh dinner salad. The roast was heated on the grill with very little fat on the slices. The bread was toasted; crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside.“

“They have a great selection of beers at a friendly neighborhood brewery and have a variety of food trucks nightly.“

“Good variety, but kind of expensive, as most pay as you pour places are. The only downside is the noise in the place. It was very slow and the noise was sometimes tricky. Can't imagine it on a busy night. Also, the AC was on and a couple people in our party were very uncomfortable as it was early March in the evening (cold).“

“Best revolving sushi we’ve found so far. We usually don’t have to wait for a table and the food is good. I’m knocking a star off because some things are way too over priced. Sometimes you have to wait a bit before a dish comes around that you want, but you can also order it on the screen so not a huge deal. Overall cool place but expect to spend at least 70$. And that’s with drinking water because their drinks are 5 bucks a piece lol“

“I've always wanted to visit this place, but I always seem to pass it on 6th Ave. It looks like they used to have a large assortment of beers you could have selected, but either the fridge is broken or the business model didn't pan out.

They do have 50 beers on tap with a good selection of wine.

It was quiet but picked up around 4:30, and a few parties took place outside.

I did see kids and dogs enjoying the outside seating.

I did enjoy #50, but it lacked a bourbon barrel flavor.“

“Dusty’s is great. The food is awesome and the staff are lovely… However, I am from out of town and I think I left my glasses there. I cannot get ahold of anyone on the phone or via FB. The phone number rings to a voicemail box that asks for a remote access code and no one has responded to my FB message. If someone sees this from Dusty’s please reach out. I’d like to know if my glasses are there.“

“Absolutely delicious food, and great service!“

“there are so many reasons to live lift bridge. here are just a couple... 1. coffee is superb 👌 hits the mark every time. 2. the baritas are friendly, fast, and most of all.. passionate about coffee. 3. No other coffee compares honestly... when I have to go elsewhere for my coffee... I find my self wishing I made the drive just for lift bridge“

“It's our go to. We are Seniors on a limited budget now. Best deals in town. Amazing food and service always. Recommend them highly“
