Restaurants in Tukwila

“I had such a great experience at JOEY Southcenter due to our lovely server McKenna. She was patient although I am extremely indecisive and she helped me make some great choices!”

“My favorite sushi restaurant hands down. Been coming here for years and it never disappoints. Well worth the drive to get there.”

“A cozy place on a rainy day. We had salty coffee and matcha latte, which came out perfectly. Their sandwiches are also amazing. My fav is their beef stew. Funny chef (Nguyen) and friendly barista make it a better exp overall. Def coming back.”

“The Calamari was the absolute best I've ever had. Their sushi rolls are very tasty.”

“Such a yummy place to have ramen. I’ve noticed lately that their broth is not as hot; luke warm at best and ruins the experience. Wings are very tasty.”

“A tad dark but love the food The staff easy parking, looking forward to going back

Kid-friendliness: There were a couple kids when I was there. But it's not what I would call a family restaurant.. definitely. Pick up a meal and take it home.
Is an option if you can't find a babysitter”

“Our first dining experience at Din Tai and maybe we overhyped it. Not the best dumplings we ever had, and maybe a little more disappointed because we waited an hour even with a reservation. Upon inquiry watching reservation diners who arrived after us, found out they mishandled our reservation because we checked in earlier . Told us they’d get us a table asap, maybe two minute wait. Ended up waiting another 30 minutes. Maybe this location is more busy, but after waiting for so long and starving the food didn’t meet our expectations. Wait staff was super friendly and food came out timely.”

“Best seafood boil I’ve ever had. So tasty and so much crab definitely coming back here again.”

“Tried this place for the first time with my wife recently.

Food was excellent.

Will be on my list for favorite pho places. Will be back”

“Outstanding Waitress Fatima! Everyone was so nice snd helpful from the Hostess, Bartender for my Strawberry Lemon, and Food preparers who brought the meal! The food was amazing! The Maple Bacon Seafood Bites were excellent! I will be back when in Seattle. I tried the Cheese Cake too! Yum!”

“Great restaurant! BBQ set was great. Quality beefs and it doesn't smell inside which I love. Other Korean BBQ restaurant usually smoky but Sumi doesn't. Highly recommend!”

“Service was super nice and friendly. Drinks are delicious. My first time here and ordered 3 different drink (all 3 are perfect!) will definitely come back for more.”

“Reminded me of places to eat in Miami, FL. It’s good, authentic food with great customer service. A huge menu it was hard to decide what to eat! Just the kind of place to check out when you’re as a tourist.”

“I recommend everything here. It’s all delicious and I just love everything about this place. 10/10 ⭐️”

“This place is pretty cool. You can come here to try different foods from around the world. There are 4 booths and vendors come at different times. I usually just come for fish and such and never had a problem. They have a few table and chairs. It's clean and they have some community events they promote. The food is always good.

Vegetarian options: Grilled veggies and rice

Parking: Parking lot”

“Amazing food and quick service! I loved that we could order everything from our phones and the food came quickly. The creamy udon was like a creamy garlic sauce and the wagyu sukiyaki was a meal on a stick. 10/10!

Vegetarian options: They have some vegetarian options but it it mainly meat

Parking: It's in a shopping pavillion so plenty of parking”

“The moment we stepped into the restaurant, we were transported to a tropical paradise. The vibrant ambiance, coupled with the soothing sounds of island music, created the perfect setting for a relaxing meal.
Our server, Jessica, was exceptional. Her warm and friendly demeanor made us feel right at home. She was knowledgeable about the menu, offering excellent recommendations that elevated our dining experience. Her suggestion of the King Carnaval drink was spot on - a refreshing and flavorful cocktail that perfectly complemented our meal. The food was equally impressive. We started with the empanadas and tuna tostada stack, which were both flavorful and visually appealing. The empanadas were crispy on the outside and filled with savory goodness, while the tuna tostada stack was a delightful blend of fresh tuna, avocado, and spicy peppers.
For the main course, Jessica recommended the snapper with green beans, which was a fantastic choice. The fish was cooked to perfection, flaky and moist, and the green beans were seasoned just right. The combination of flavors was simply divine. Overall, our dinner at Bahama Breeze was a fantastic experience. The food, the ambiance, and the service were all top-notch. We will definitely be returning to this tropical oasis in the future, and we can't wait to see what other delicious surprises Jessica has in store for us

Parking: Is free parking”

“Patient and thorough with non-typical allergies! Thank you so much! I’ve been meaning to leave this review for awhile. My wife has a wide range of allergies and there are very few places she can eat at. Too often restaurant staff aren’t thorough with ingredients and sub ingredients (like, great it has artichokes but what were they *preserved* in?) More often than not when we try someplace new she has a reaction so usually we cook at home. But months back a manager or supervisor at this location took a lot of time to go through the menu with my wife until she found something she could have reliably every time we go there. Because of that we eat out there pretty much more than anywhere else. Thank you so much for taking allergens seriously and considering sub ingredients.”

“Good chicken fried rice and pad Thai chicken”

“Nice atmosphere and good food!!”

“Everything tastes awesome and the people are nice.”

“Had a business event I attended here. Was a pleasant surprise that I didn’t know existed. Visited on a Thursday late afternoon/early evening. Spent time between the patio and bar areas. Prices are reasonable. Larger menu selection than I had expected. Parking was ample and free of charge. Service was friendly and attentive.”

“This place is wonderful! The food was delicious and the service was great! Super friendly, big portions (the plate of pakoras for appetizer was massive!), tons of good vegan options. Will absolutely be back here again!”

“Absolutely amazing food & mimosas! Definitely 5 star service!”

“Amazing food and a joyful atmosphere I ordered the chicken fried steak and the New York steak and both were cooked to perfection. When ever we come back to Renton we definitely will come again?”

“We usually come to this location a lot and get Ashley as our waitress and she’s amazing ! Always has great customer service and gets our order right. Recently we came in and had a tall blonde/brownish short hair be our waitress, and we kind of felt non existent, she was talking to a male customer for most of the time so I had to ask another waitress for things that we needed.”

“Khameuay was our server tonight and let me tell you, she did the most amazing job. We had a very large party with splits checks and some special needs and Khameuay was so organized and professional and attentive to our needs! Hands down the best service we’ve ever received and we a very large family that meets several times a year! The food was amazing as well!! Thank you for making our family gathering a truly special one!”

“I did not know about this spot. The cabbage was tender and flavorful. The fried chicken was bomb. I actually ate the skin. I NEVER EAT THE SKIN. Perfect not greasy. You receive a free drink and small bag of chips with your order. I didn't try the desserts. Next time.”

“man this food was off the chart I am very excited to have tried African cuisine being an African-American”

“It was so good. I was looking for a quick meal and it surpassed my expectations. You wouldn't know it from the outside, but don't be fool, go in and order the teriyaki or katsu! You'll love it.”

“I freakin love this place. Amazing staff, amazing food, amazing atmosphere!! Love love love this place!!”

“Love this place! The staff are kind and helpful, and always greet us as tho we're the only customers they've had that month.
My husband gets the combo rice, and loves it. I think it's a tiny bit greasy for me, but he's happy. (and they'll not put in veggies if you so choose!)
I love the Mongolian Beef. The meat portion could be bigger, and I wish they'd put more of the noodles underneath, especially because they drown it in sauce, but the pieces of meat are nice and thick, and scrumptious.
Took away 1 star on atmosphere because the table we sit at to wait was sticky.

Side note, they are a bit more expensive than they should be for what you get, but I suppose that's where we are currently.
3 meals is gonna be $60... But still worth the trip.

Wheelchair accessibility: Wheelchair accessible. Handicap parking directly in front with a ramp right to the door. Door is a bit heavy, but not so much that it can't be opened without help...”

“Amazing local scene venue!”

“Authentic staff interaction, deliciously creamy curries, and dishes full of flavor. One of the better Thai spots we’ve found in Burien in our explorations of the area so far!

The Pad Thai wasn’t perfect, but we know our standards for Pad Thai are almost unattainable.”

“Hello! The Trekking Pawns here! Had time before having to go to the airport, so had lunch here and it was fantastic!! Very comparable to ramen we’ve had in Japan! The broth was so flavorful that I drank all of it. Left nothing behind. If you like spice, they do it very well! (There is also a veg option with veg broth.) We got the spicy miso tonkotsu and a Rashi ramen. So yummy!

Parking: The center has a lot of shops and constant people coming in and out. Lots of tight parking spaces.”

“Best customer service and delicious food.”

“Amazing smoothies, with a great selection of add ons. I stepped out of my comfort zone and tried a shot and it jump started my day! Will be back a lot!”

“We come here twice a month and get the papaya salad, pad kee mao and phad talay. It’s delicious comfort food! They have a lot of shrimp in their dishes! The jasmine rice is tasty too. We usually get 2-3 stars and it’s not spicy. I feel like the quality of the food is better on the weekends. The staff is always helpful and friendly! My only complaint is the uncomfortable wooden seats. Otherwise it’s one of our favorite restaurants!”

“I love coming here when I want a really solid burger, fast. All menu items I’ve tried are tasty and a good portion.

The space is always clean. Good comes out quick. The pepper bar and sauces are always fully stocked. They do good work here!”

“What an incredible culinary journey! I’ve never had authentic Ethiopian food before and I am happy to say that I love it! I was recommended to try this place by a nearby coffee shop barista and I couldn’t be more happy. Friendly service, simple and straightforward menu, and short wait times!

The waiter recommended the veggie and meat platter and it was the perfect intro for somebody who’s never eaten here! The only thing I wish this place had was somebody to sit down and eat this food with me! I was on a solo trip for work and the serving sizes here are MASSIVE definitely recommend splitting a platter.”

“Very nice place, you can have a beer with your friends, it has screens to watch your favorite games, the service is very friendly, the girls dress in short shorts and are very nice, it sells very good hamburgers and snacks, the costs are appropriate to what is offered In general, an excellent place to spend the afternoon or evening.”

“la carne asada, los tacos el burrito y sus especiales, los tacos dorados de papá, los tacos de chicharrón deliciosos, todo está muy rico”

“Dubai Cafeteria offers a great taste of Somali cuisine that is truly hard to find elsewhere. Their dishes are flavorful and expertly prepared

The dishes that had stood out the most for me in my opinion were the chicken suqaar and the spaghetti with lamb. The chicken suqaar is tender and seasoned to perfection, while the spaghetti with lamb offers a unique and delicious twist that is really hearty and satisfying.

The prices are great and the employees are nice and helpful

If you're looking for a great place to enjoy Somali food, Dubai Cafeteria should definitely be on your list”

“Borrow provide the best customer service skillset to me and my client while at your location yesterday. My client had never been to a Tacoma Time before and was very impressed with the clean, and great value for the money. Borrow was so helpful on ever level. We appreciate ? you and the chef ?‍? in the back making things happen ? ??You have a new customer for life and I'm a loyal customer for life. Keep up the great work ? Peace Farmer J”

“Both drive-thru and inside experiences are pleasant, speedy, cooked to perfection. Staff is awesome to engage with first-thing in the morning. Fav a.m. coffe stop!”

“This is the closest TT to my office, so I come here quite often. I've had a few missing items over the course of X amount of years, but one thing that doesn't lack is Tiffanie's smile and attitude. She is such a pleasure to see every time I stop by. Taco Time is so lucky to have her!”

“4 stars because Wendy’s is my favorite fast food, except the frosty. Fast food is always a 3. I gave a 1 for service because the drive thru was packed. Atmosphere was probably a 3 as are all fast food restaurants IMHO. I went to jack in the box across the street and I got a shake that I didn’t need a spoon to eat. I threw the trash away at the Taco Bell in between the two stores. Check out my review of the jack in the box on Rainier. Maybe the math will work for my average number of stars.

Vegetarian options: Do vegetarians eat at Wendy’s?

Dietary restrictions: No tomatoes!

Parking: Everyone was in the drive through. I don’t even know if the dining room was open. What with Covid and all.

Kid-friendliness: I’m not sure if kids can drive a car, but I bet they would use the drive-thru

Wheelchair accessibility: They conform to the federal standard.”

“The entire staff were amazingly kind. Restaurant was clean.”

“I can't speak on the atmosphere since I went to the drive-thru, but everything else was above average. The price was acceptable, the service was fast, and the food was hot.”

“Good food, but little to no interaction with employees. Order and pay at kiosk. Gave a box of food without a tray and a cup to fill my own drink. Not a word from the employees except calling my name.”

“Meeting up for a Seahawks game, but Starbucks coffee hit everyone at the same time. 10am and nothing open. We all hit the McDonald's for a break and an egg mcmuffen.

Props to McDonald's for no locked bathrooms!”

“The establishment consistently maintains accuracy in fulfilling orders, demonstrating a commitment to service quality. Their customer service is commendable, as they take the necessary time to ensure that customers receive exactly what they ordered.”

“Limpio, serviciales comida fresca, caliente y despachada según ordenada, tiempo de espera mínimo. Lo visite en 2 ocasiones por su extraordinario sabor, buena cocción de alimentos . Lo recomiendo. Aquí si hacen un extraordinario trabajo gracias a cada uno de los empleados por su ardua labor y a su jefe también por el gran servicio y coordinación.”

“Jack in the box, always a great place to eat, and online ordering with points through the app is a super pluse

Parking: Plenty of room

Kid-friendliness: Yes

Wheelchair accessibility: Yes”

“Food is consistently fresh cooked. And the staff is friendly when I go. The drive thru exits into a very hard to see intersection for other businesses though so be careful pulling out.”

“Dave did it again”

“Love the discounts on the fabulous Franz brand here! I used to go to our local Franz outlet as a kid, and walking into one always gives me nostalgia. So do the prices! Plus, they still offer you a free item after you make your purchase. Great business model that reduces food waste!”

“We’ve tried tortas, sopes, tacos, burritos, and Birria de res all of the things are great!
I suggest the tacos and sopes to start but its all delicious and authentic!”

“Incredible drinks, incredible people, and well priced. Every location feels like home!!!”

“Delicious caramel macchiato and equally delicious young lady making it, a bit crass, I know, but I envy anyone with the body and the demeanor to make money in this way. I'm honestly amazed that they haven't set up a male version of this.”

“Really cool place friendly nice people great food”

“Phenomenal customer service and experience, i wanted to switch a drink because i didn’t like the flavor and they also offered me a free drinks, very great customer service training and policy, drinks also taste really good and flavorful, 10/10 recommendation”

“Delicious today was my first day visiting. We had everything on the menu but the fish entrées. Fresh amazing atmosphere sweet teenage boy who took our order and the owner his mom was outstanding. This is a place you have to come and eat!”

“Cool small place with affordable options that still taste good and sells halal food. My favorite meal is the chicken sandwich combo priced at 11$(chicken sandwich, fries, drink) the fries they give are no joke, they give a lot and always taste good. Service is good, you just need to talk first to the cashier. Parking will be hard at times but simple to get used to if you come alot. And they also have a small dine in area in the back and a nice waiting/eating area in the front.

TLDR: nice affordable food that's halal. It's good.

Wheelchair accessibility: There's no stairs on the property or anything that will hinder anyone with mobility issues.”

“We saw the food truck at lunchtime so decided to stop and try something new. We got the fried chicken torta, a side of fries and elote (corn). Our total for all was $28. It was served in about 6 minutes, and it was delicious! We really enjoyed the food. We would return again in the future.”

“This Jamba Juice location has great service! The people who work here are very attentive. Atmosphere is as great as it can be being in a mall but always enjoyable to see such happy faces! I highly recommend going here!!”

“Ordered the large chicken teriyaki and chicken katsu, and both dishes hit the spot. The portions were very generous. The lady working the front was nice. I'll definitely be stopping by again when I'm in the area!”

“Tried the pupusas, tamales and fried plantains.. everything has great flavor, can tell is freshly made and great portions. Actually heading back tonight to grab some more lol overall good food ❤️”

“Absolutely delicious food that made me feel amazing after eating. The green sauce was very spicy and blended well with my dish. aaand they gave me a banana... what an interesringly odd yet nice touch.

The price / portions were also spot on in my opinion. I ordered the chicken Kati. Thank goodness they actually had the bitter bread. The portions are on the larger side. I had enough for a second meal later in the day. Yes, it was so good I couldn't wait to eat the rest. Usually I save left overs for the next day.

Since I got this food to go, I'll keep my review rating to just rate the food. The parking is pretty bad with only about 8 parking spots, but at least they have do have dedicated parking. I showed up at 9 am and the parking lot only had one space left just for me. There was already several people inside eating. Even more came and went while I waited.

The interior needs a full make over in my opnion, but it's all fairly functional. Also their drinking water situation was confusing as they didn't even off me water with my meal. Maybe that was my fault. I originally asked for my food to go but mentioned that I was so hungry I was gonna eat some as soon as they handed it to me. So they decided to give it to me on a dine in plate.

Don't come for a fancy date night or even to impress anyone. Unless you explain the interior design situation ahead of time.... it's like eating at an old uncle or grandparents house.

Their service is fairly average, but the employees are a super chill vibe. A lot of customers had very lengthy conversations with the teller regardless if they were ordering, just hanging out, or already done eating.

Honestly I've been thinking about going back all week. Next time I'm in the area, stopping in for a plate will be a must.

Parking: Parking it front. Limited amount of space, but I got a spot just fine

Wheelchair accessibility: It's only one story, but they have stairs to get in”

“We LOVE this place! The pizza is amazing and the staff is wonderful. We just had my son’s entire soccer team and families here to celebrate his birthday and it was perfection. Highly recommend.

Kid-friendliness: Very kid friendly!”

“The staff is always so friendly and helpful, the cafe is beautiful and clean, and the food and coffees are delicious and aesthetically pleasing!! I love how many options they have ? one thing my friends and I wish they had was a spam option, we were missing it!”

“We had dinner at the Tukwila location tonight and Andres was very pleasant and helpful. We made some specific requests and he accommodated our needs. Food is always good at Famous Daves and I appreciate that at a BBQ place they offer an option of salmon. It is prepared on a Cedar Plank and is excellent. My husband says the St. Louis Ribs are the best ribs ever.”

“Khameuay was our server tonight and let me tell you, she did the most amazing job. We had a very large party with splits checks and some special needs and Khameuay was so organized and professional and attentive to our needs! Hands down the best service we’ve ever received and we a very large family that meets several times a year! The food was amazing as well!! Thank you for making our family gathering a truly special one!”

“The food is so good and the customer service is amazing. 10/10”

“I freakin love this place. Amazing staff, amazing food, amazing atmosphere!! Love love love this place!!”

“In terms of taste, best fried chicken out there. Gravy is killer if you are into gravy at all. Very versatile gravy.

Price has been steadily increasing in the recent years. I remember that before the pandemic, the price cost value of this place is insanely high.”

“Such a yummy place to have ramen. I’ve noticed lately that their broth is not as hot; luke warm at best and ruins the experience. Wings are very tasty.”

“Thanks everyone first visit look forward to coming back”

“Great food selection! The variety is always good, but it would be nice to be able to order a la carte in case you don't want to eat the "all you can eat" amount. Good service, but the combo of soft-spoken servers and loud-ish music made it difficult to hear what they were saying. It would also be nice if they had a menu to scan at the table rather than just up front. I almost feel like the tables could be bigger - once you get all your stuff to cook and your drinks and the burner is going, there's hardly any room to eat or cook without knocking something over or dragging your arm through something.”

“Quick service. We had the basic pho. It was delicious. Their spring rolls were awesome.”

“The staff is always so friendly and helpful, the cafe is beautiful and clean, and the food and coffees are delicious and aesthetically pleasing!! I love how many options they have ? one thing my friends and I wish they had was a spam option, we were missing it!”

“The employees are super nice and the food is amazing. Comparing to other buffets this place is top tier and the price point is reasonable for the quality. The owner is very caring as well!”

“Nice atmosphere and good food!!”

“Food was excellente!!! #elonaforgov #elonakearney”

“What a great find!!!Our server Alma was so kind and thoughtful. The food was excellent- egg burrito super tasty and the home fries were crisp without being greasy. Elmer rocks the kitchen!!!”

“Wonderful staff, food, plus no wait time, great location and quick service. Celebrated my birthday here, def will be back. The pickled cucumber, hot and sour noodles, pancakes and milk tea are my favorites. The pork dumplings are excellent too”

“I like it better than Chinatown!

A dim sum restaurant that opened recently even though Din Tai Fung is located in the same mall. I was curious and went to see it, and it was really nice🥟

It's quieter, cleaner, and has better service than the famous restaurants in Chinatown, so you can have a relaxing meal.

All the meals were delicious. Especially the shumai, shanghai xiaolongbao, and shrimp dim sum.

Kid-friendliness: Strollers are left at the store entrance. High chair available.”
