“This is not a run-of-the-mill coffee shop! From sweet and savory crepes, sandwiches, soups, desserts, beverages and much more, you'll most likely find something to satisfy your palate! It's also a gift shop showcasing local arts and crafts. The staff are friendly and courteous! Did I miss anything? Probably! You'll have to stop by and see for yourself. You won't be disappointed!“

“We had a date night here and were absolutely impressed. The Beecher’s grilled cheese and butternut squash soup was a stand out. Both of our pasta entrees were phenomenal as well. The star of the show, though, was our dessert, which was a deconstructed PB&J. I don’t think I’ve ever had something that had such a wide variety of complementary textures. It was amazing and flavorful.“

“Normally I have a good experience here. Lately, they have been hiring people who do not want to work. When placing an order, unnamed female employee, seemed bored, did not speak clearly nor make eye contact. I Felt like I was an inconvenience to her. If the manager wants to reach out I can give you employee name. I get enough attitude from the wife and screaming kids. I come here to get away and enjoy a bit of peace without being judged for being disabled vet.“

“The owner is very kind has wonderful customer service skills, makes the best coffee I’ve tasted in years she makes Starbucks look brand new! They also have the best sandwiches I recommend the roast beef sandwich without tomato for lunch prices are affordable.“

“The cafe is beautifully designed and their coffee is excellent! Ordered the popular banana pudding matcha and was not disappointed at all. Also ordered one of their energy drinks and it was refreshing! We tried their mini pancakes and they were delicious !! I believe anything you order on their menu will be 10/10.“

“Vashom island, Washington: A wonderful kitchen run by Nepali owners. Great food, a pleasant atmosphere, and truly wonderful people. We enjoyed some of the best vegetable and pork momos. We also had the pleasure of interacting with Birbal ji—such a kind and humble soul.“

“Best juice and smoothie bar ever! We won't go anymore else after discovering this place. Service is excellent and the drinks are amazing!! Only wish we would have found this place sooner.“

“Tacoma’s best kept secret. Want a small quaint warm and cleanest cafe coupled with the best breakfast burritos ( and other meals) in town? Unbelievably good. You can select in burrito the fresh veggies you want and meat type and no cheap potato filler either! And love the carefully made white chocolate mocha I have ordered each time is tasty and hot! Service with polite 3 ladies there. About 6-7 tables and fireplace setting. If you want a nice place to talk with someone too treat them to your secret place: Sofi’s Corner! Rarely would I give a 5 star but this place deserves 6! Go early too. 7 am (8 Saturday & Sunday), to 4 pm. Lunches are super too w many selections. 6450 Tacoma Mall Blvd, Tacoma, WA 98409 in same building as McCauslands fine men’s clothing..“

“I enjoyed the BLT, very tasty!“

“We had their sausage egg sandwich on brioche buns. They were super hot and tasty. The coffee drinks used great chocolate in the mocha and a creme brûlée latte with their caramel whipped cream! We were at their newest location on Ruston and the barista was hustling to keep up with the business.“

“We have lived in several places and have tried lots of places here and elsewhere that sold banh mi sandwiches but these are the best banh mi sandwiches we have had! We think they might make their own buns because they are so very tasty and just as good as the fresh baguettes we had when we lived in France! The sandwich ingredients are fresh and flavorful and we especially love the wonderful paté they include on them, unless you tell them you are vegetarian or vegan. They make the paté themselves and it is also as delicious as any we used to have in France! We like their rice bowls too. If you haven’t been to the “Toast Mi”…located in Lacey…we highly recommend seeking it out and giving it a try. If you like banh mi sandwiches, you will be happy that you did!“

“bomb big an I mean big sandwiches. second time having my husband pick up our order. talk about good. if you love sandwiches this is the place to go. think I'm playing when I say big, just you wait an see. you will thank me later🖤“

“This is a perfect spot for a relaxing afternoon. The indoor space is spacious and inviting and the outdoor area is really well put together. I love the view of the fountain and being able to watch the golfers. The service has always been great every time I’ve gone. The baristas are attentive and friendly. I’ll be back!“

“LOVE this place! I will take everyone here who visits! Beautiful view, great food and drink selections. Cute little shop for unique gifts or something special for yourself. Unique assortment you can’t find anywhere else! The staff is amazing!!!!!“

“The chips were on the thinner side which I like. I was nearly falling asleep at any moment after a long day, and the chips alone seemed to be just the fuel that I needed to make me feel much better! The salsa was also nice. I liked the consistency that was the right combination between smooth and chunky. I also thought it was a good amount of spiciness, and I didn't even ask if they had a spicier option like I do a lot of the time.“

“My first time visiting....We had a Mother/Daughter day and she took me to this lovely coffee shop off of Ruston way...the coffee was hot and tasty...but the Dill Chedder Cheese Sones were so flaky and delicious...I can't wait to go back...“

“I have enjoyed the fine coffee and relaxed ambiance of Cafe Luna since it first opened.“

“Came across Pollard while Googling local, small coffee roasters, and I'm so happy I did! Definitely one of our favorite coffees, been getting Pollard for a while now and it has never disappointed 😄 We always get compliments back when we gift Pollard coffee and their customer service is awesome! Have fun with the custom blend option, it's a nice feature, especially when giving as a gift ☕“

“Just had breakfast from Simply Panini and everything was great *except* why would you use died green filler sauce and call it pesto? Pesto is olive oil, basil, garlic, and a nut element that could be skipped… so simple and delicious! It could even be mixed with mayo in the right proportions and be good. This sauce was an immediate red flag when I opened the container and it barely tastes like anything. The early bird breakfast sandwich would be so much better with a sauce made from real food.“

“The Grilled Chicken, which was accompanied by broccoli, was surprisingly moist and very tasty. My wife enjoyed her half-sandwich of grilled cheese and the cup of TAM Coconut Black Bean Soup. The hostess/server was friendly and helpful, and price for our mid-day meal was reasonable.“

“I tend to go here more often than I should. But, it’s honestly the ladies that work there. They are all so great! Caylee is always so much fun and always radiates joy, and gets so excited to make my “surprise” lotus. Thank you ladies for great drinks and great customer service:)“

“I had an engagement session near this Anthem so we went in! I challenged the baristas with making a heart on top of a latte to be used for a photo! They kindly did it free of charge with repurposed grounds! I absolutely loved the outcome! Great atmosphere!“

“I really enjoyed the food here! It was all delicious. The gumbo, their deluxe sandwich and an espresso cost just over $50 before tip, which feels pretty steep.

It took us about 10 minutes to get to order our food, and another 40 minutes for it to come out. Once it came out, the food was noticeably fresh and warm, which made it worth the wait for me! I loved the Mochanut Crunch Espresso as well. I got a side salad instead of chips with my sandwich, and it was very memorable. I appreciate when dining facilities make an effort to do more for a side salad than lettuce. I was pleased that there was an assortment of vegetables upon a bed of spinach.

Overall I will be returning for a relaxing weekend lunch, when I'm not in a rush to go somewhere afterwards.“

“I ordered the chicken spinach avocado on sour dough 😋 I can't express how delicious this sandwich was. I love this place great food and people 10 out 5 🌟“

“Best hot chocolate ever!!!!“

“My husband and I have been eating at Nordstrom's Cafe for years. The food is always great and service is usually good. We feel the quality of the food and the clean, updated interior warrants the higher food prices. However, after shopping the Anniversary sale my husband and I went to lunch at Nordstrom's and we both were disappointed that the Cafe is now using paper napkins and not cloth napkins. I know it's not a big deal to some but it feels like another Nordstrom's downgrade. Just like losing the piano player and the customer service center/gift wrap. Remember those beautiful silver boxes with the bows? Or how every clerk walked around the counter to hand you your Nordstrom bag. Those days are gone....we find ourselves shopping there less.....“

“I love Tacoma Java!! The girls are always friendly and go out of their way to make sure we have a wonderful experience! Mallori always remembers our drinks and always has a smile on her face! Highly recommend checking this coffee stand! 5 star service every single time we stop by!“

“Yummy food, huge portions, and amazing owners! The city of Fircrest is so lucky to have this restaurant.“

“I love the local personal touch! The flowers and gift exceeded my expectations, plus excellent service. Rhapsody is my go-to florist now.“

“The place was an aesthetic vibe and a simplistic entry.
I love how the workers were nice and made the order quick. I bought the Golden Hour and the Brown Sugar Milk and they both tasted delicious! The Golden Hour was sweet and the mango flavor really stands out.“

“Great environment, even greater food. The couple that owns the shop is very kind. A lot of my classmates go here as well, it's very convenient! My favorite is the Caprese melt! Making your lunch a meal is definitely worth the extra money.“

“We had their sausage egg sandwich on brioche buns. They were super hot and tasty. The coffee drinks used great chocolate in the mocha and a creme brûlée latte with their caramel whipped cream! We were at their newest location on Ruston and the barista was hustling to keep up with the business.“
