“Food was fantastic, and speedy service. Drinks were very good (Bloody Mary with bacon). Aelysa and team have a great menu with lots of awesome choices. Keeps the authentic vibes of the Pine Cone of years past, but with a new and fresh take. Friendly folks and casual atmosphere. Highly recommend!”

“Food was decent, my drink was good and strong, staff was great. Theres lots of parking, mainly in a lot across the street. People take their kerokee very seriously here and it was a lot of fun watching everyone just enjoy and support all the people who sang. Ill definitely be back. I might even sing next time! Lol”

“My first visit here was very nice. The store was very clean and the staff was very kind and helpful. I came with the Wainwright fundraiser for lunch and I met the GM (Sara) of the store and she was very helpful on giving information for my kids basketball league. Thank you and I will be back.”

“We love happy duo! The girls who work in the front are always so helpful and pleasant. Not to mention the bao buns are to die for!”

“I have two children with Celiac Disease who are huge ice cream lovers. We just visited for the first time and the lol on my 9 year old son’s face when he found out he could have a waffle cone was beyond priceless. The service we got was amazing and don’t even get me started on the ice cream. I can truly say this is now going to be our family’s go to ice cream shop from now on.”

“This has been my favorite University Place Coffee shop for over 4 years. The baristas are like family and remember me every time. And great coffee. I even buy their beans”

“I have been coming here for years and the food is awesome!”

“I come here often, and Natalie recommended my new favorite drink! It's so good with half the amount of calories! She happily substituted heavy whipping cream for ice cream to lower the sugar, and it turned out great. She was professional, friendly, and made the whole experience smooth and enjoyable. Great coffee and an even better start to my morning. Thank you, Natalie!”

“The definition of a mom & pop shop that cares about what they do. Food is consistently great. I always order take out and the dishes are still always well-prepared and presented, quick service, etc. If you’re in the area and haven’t tried it then you’re robbing yourself.”

“I love MOD pizza, and this is my favorite location! The evening shift employees are always kind and I love that it’s quiet in there later in the evening. They always make your items with extra care and they come out perfectly every time. Highly recommend this spot!”

“We stopped in for a casual family dinner during college dorm move-in, and were happy with our meal. It’s not a fine dining atmosphere — no surprise given the strip mall location — but great for a casual lunch or family dinner or takeout.

Service was notably warm (possibly the owner?) — friendly and helpful as well as prompt and attentive without being intrusive.

Food was good; we ordered the mango curry, butter chicken, vegetable pakoras, and garlic naan. Everything was tasty. The flavor profile of the two curries was too similar, so we should have diversified — that was our mistake in ordering, no fault of the restaurant. The quantity fed three people with moderate appetites and left takeaway leftovers for the dorm fridge.

We’ll probably return at some point when we’re in Tacoma, and our daughter added it to her list of good takeout spots.”

“The pizza is overpriced as it is good pizza but shouldn't sit at what I call payday pizza. Their pizza rolls though are absolutely amazing. I will be buying just double orders of those next time. Pizza was not ready on time but the service was friendly.”

“food was good they offer the fights for free although my tab tells another story but over a great fight night experience”

“Best Thai food in the area! Absolutely the best cashew chicken I’ve had. Excellent service. I love this place. They take price in the food quality and service!”

“The sandwiches are really good & we love the rosemary parmesan bread. However, why can't some people follow simple instructions? On multiple occasions I've ordered online and under the giant sandwich instructions I indicate "Cut into THREE (3) EQUAL sections. Three people are sharing this." Today I also added the same instructions (referring to the giant) under Special Instructions for the order at checkout. After all of this, it's still cut into 4 sections! So annoying. Now to figure out how to re-cut this into 3 sections without making someone have such an extra small section that falls apart? I know there are bigger problems in the world, but this could've been so easy! 🤪”

“They did a nice job utilizing the space. I use the shop for quick meetings in the morning with clients and it’s a good atmosphere for it. Phenomenal product as well. I’ll definitely be back. The staff is friendly too”

“Great value, delicious food and very understand employees.”

“Food was amazing but what makes this experience with writing the review is the service we came in 08/26 the gal in the morning was amazing her name was bree amazing service we will be back for her hopefully she is working !”

“The bread was ok, not real tasty. Pretty small size for the price. A sign on the counter said to tell the sand which crew what you want on the sand which, listed all their veggies, etc. when I finished paying and getting change, the sandwhich was getting wrapped. No chance to ask fore anything. Came with tomatoe and lettuce. Slathered with mayo and made the veggies slide out when biting into the thing. Won't be back.”

“The baristas, especially the ones that wait on you. They know their regulars by name, friendly & courteous to all. They inform alternates when something is sold out. They work as a well organized team. This location is busy. We pass up a closer location to go here.”

“Typical McD. Not much else to report. One goes to McDonald's to experience McDonald's, and in my opinion, this one doesn't disappoint.

Note: if you haven't used the app to order ahead of time, you're really missing out. Earn points just for using it to get free items. Best part, pulling up to give a code on things you've already decided on and paid for... Fast-food faster? Who would've thought.”
