"I 'd like to give this place 2.5 stars. It was a little less than okay based on what I expected from the rave reviews. If I had no expectations whatsoever, I 'd say this place is a solid 3 stars. It 's not bad by any means, just not great. I 'd compare it to a fastfood burger without it being, fast . I ordered the Charburger expecting a heavy charbroiled taste. I was disappointed. There is a hint of charbroil if you think and chew hard enough. The veggies were fresh and the setting is nice. The staff is upbeat and attentive, so that 's a plus. Overall, if it was within walking distance, it would be a solid choice over McDonald 's."

"Over a year in the making, I've become a loyal fan of BT Thai through my door dash experience. It's one of the few thai restaurants that offer togo and don't skimp on quality, flavor or heat. However, I've longed to experience this restaurant in person and I was throughly impressed. The plating, presentation and service were equally as incredible as the food. The kindness shown in our experience is also reflected in the food.Furthermore, any place willing to tell you if you ask for it, and can't handle the heat, don't expect a refund is my kind of place ; we can't wait to return!"

"The Rosewood is one of our regular stops. Their biggest problem is that everything tastes so frigging good. I do wish that they carried a sweet wine by the glass, but that would be my only criticism. Service is good. Atmosphere is great."

"Really wanted to like this place. I’ve been here two or three times? Every time for ordering two items maybe three items it ends up being $60 without tip. I feel like that’s ridiculously over priced. The food quality is not that great, it lacks a lot of flavor. The service is really good but I probably won’t try again."

"We had a great time at Over the Moon. Great Fool. Great Service and the ambiance is just what we wanted for an anniversary dinner. Would highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for a place to mark a special day."

"The spring rolls arrived with the sauce cup only one-third full, but the sponge rolls had a nice crunch to them. The pad Thai was tasty, although the spice level was milder compared to other places. A rating of 4 seemed more like a 2.5 or 3 in reality."

"The service is awesome and the food is great. Not sweet like other pho restaurants in the area, very unique and extraordinary flavor to the fried rice and grilled chicken dish I ordered, and for the same price you can choose to get the order with egg rolls. Amazing place."

"Menudo here, is the best I have had since Texas! We could not find a good Mexican restaurant here so far we tried 4, and they are all over priced and food is disgusting! Being from Texas and eating Tex/Mex I know we will not find good food anywhere else… but this place is very good.. the asada fries and corn tortillas and the service is super friendly…"

"Just had an amazing birthday celebration dinner for my husband at Bar Bistro. Every dish we had (lamb shank, Paella, Traditional Cuban, Crab Bisque, Lobster Aglio E Olio, Strawberry Rhubarb Beignets, Warm Chocolate Lava Cake....and even the Mac Cheese for the granddaughter) were excellent. Haven't enjoyed a meal like this in a long time. And our waitress , Jaclyn, was so attentive, helpful and welcoming! You need to try this place! You won't be disappointed."

"My sister and I went to Galanga last Thursday for lunch. We had a reservation and glad we did because the place was packed! She ordered Four Buddies and One Pal and I ordered the four Spring Rolls and then we shared. Everything was yummy and the service was exceptional. For sure we'll be back!!"

"I recently dined at a restaurant in Tacoma and was blown away by the delicious food. The sauces were thick and flavorful, without any unnecessary fillers. My friends ordered a Tikki Masala and a Vindaloo, and both dishes were unique and carefully crafted. As someone who loves spicy food, I opted for a level 3 Rohan Josh - next time, I'll definitely go for a level 4 or 5 as the spice level was a bit milder than I would have preferred. Despite this, the dish was still a perfect 10/10 in terms of flavor. I highly recommend this restaurant for anyone looking for tasty and authentic Indian cuisine in Tacoma."

"Best birthday dinner surprise!!! I have to wait for it and it has not disappointed!! The ambience is amazing! Cosy, but you feel like in your own private space! Service was fantastic and fast and the food was stellar! We shared sushi, rays and a pigmeat dinner and we both stayed full of remnants! Sushi was the best I had! I can't wait to go back!"

"This is my favorite restaurant to order bánh mì from PERIOD. I've had tofu and chicken báhn mì from all kinds of places and nothing beats i5 Pho! It seems really simple but man, I've had some disappointing bánh mì from other places especially the tofu option )But i5 is different! The bread is always nice and crispy and the ratio between meat/tofu and vegetables is just perfect so everything stays inside when you take a bite. And let me just say, I don't know what sauce you guys use but man chefs kiss ? it's like subtle but surprisingly necessary??ALSO THE TOFU ACTUALLY HAS FLAVOR!!! I5 is the only place I've found that has a tofu option that has flavor and I'm LIVING ????????And don't get me started on the adorable packaging for the drinks aaaaa!!The service is always super duper fast and everyone is always very nice and respectful too! The ambiance when you walk in is really calm and trendy.Whenever I think of my favorite place to eat, i5 Pho is legit really high up there so thanks for all the care and hard work! I'll definitely be back after repairs!? ´∀` ?)Vegetarian options: I always order the tofu bánh mì and its absolutely delicious. Like I legit can't order tofu bánh mì from anywhere else because i5 is the only place I've found that has flavorful tofu. It might just be the sauce they use but man it really does make a difference"

"The server did not greet us, did not tell us her name, did not introduce the establishment, or tell us the daily specials. When asked about the IPAs on tap, she had little to no knowledge on the subject and told us it had been a while since she tried the IPAs. She checked on us once during our dinner and seemed very disinterested in her part of the customer service role. I would recommend this place for takeout ONLY. The sandwiches were pretty amazing. The beer was subpar"

"I had the impression from OpenTable that this restaurant was fully booked, but when we arrived there were plenty of empty tables. I would suggest showing up even if you can't get a reservation. The food was a bit pricey but delicious. We ordered some tater tots and a pizza, as well as a few beers and cocktails. Even if the restaurant is busy, there are three other bars in the same building that also serve food, so don't hesitate to just show up!"

"I wanted to try this place already! I don't live in the opposite, but was finally close to trying. I ordered the South-Comfort meal and an additional order of hush weep. everything was delicious. I loved the hush puppies especially. that is a little casual comfort eating. can not wait to try other things in the menu. wish that they allowed to eat so that I had everything plated instead of in togo boxes."

"I absolutely love this coffee shop, the staff are always smiling, even though they are always wearing a mask, it is their eyes that let me know that they are smiling. Maybe one day I will be able to see the faces of these smart women. Once the pandemic has been destroyed, and life returns to a new normal that is. The selection of drinks is far better than Starbucks, I like the snickers 24 ounce blended the best. I wish we had a Gravity Coffee in Kamloops, BC, Canada because I would spend my money on their products rather than at Starbucks."

"The quality of the food was poor. I ordered a tofu sandwich with mushrooms and potatoes. It came in some kind of strange flavorless wrap and the filling had an over-spiced unappealing flavor. I was told that I did not need to wait at the counter, and they would call my name. 20 minutes later I went in to check and it had been sitting on the counter with other customers coming and going and getting their food. They said they called my name four times. After the first time, one would think that the calling of the name was not effective and perhaps it couldn't be heard in the adjacent room. So, the food was not well prepared and the service was very confusing. Cute place and nice music. What a let down."
