We went here for a Seahawks/49ers divisional game watch party, and we were a little nervous because we have two kiddos (with my 8yo being a 49ers fan) and they warned that they thought they were gonna be busy. We showed up ~40min before game time and that was plenty early to get a seat in front of a television. Our server was incredibly kind and patient, and we got our food quickly. Since we were there for a watch party, obviously we slow rolled eating, but our server never stopped coming to our table to ensure we had everything we needed. Overall, it was a great atmosphere to watch a Hawks game in! I also want to give a huge shoutout to the 49ers fans who were so kind to my little 8yo. He's a contrarian who picked the Niners to be his team because mom and her family have been lifelong fans of the Hawks. With both teams being division rivals, we were nervous about the tension between the fans but everybody was so welcoming (to both his Hawks mom and Niners kiddo), and we'll definitely be back. Thanks, Billy McHale's! read more

We had a great experience at Billy McHale's! The food was excellent with generous portions that offer real value for your money. The restaurant is clean and well-maintained, and the service was good throughout our visit. We both ordered burgers and they did not disappoint. I had the mushroom burger which was delicious, and my husband went with the double trouble burger - both were cooked perfectly and packed with flavor. If you're looking for quality burgers in a welcoming atmosphere without breaking the bank, Billy McHale's is definitely worth a visit. We'll be back! If you are looking for fellow 49ers fans in the Seattle area this is your place. Sadly I'm married to a Niners fan. Go Seahawks read more

This place is sooooo good! I stopped her for lunch and had the onion ring block they use their own batter it was AMAZING! I tried the mushroom burger it was really good! So many things I want to try on the menu, I'm definitely coming back, even for a drink I love the atmosphere in here. Great place to watch a game if you wanted to. I did find out the cheese sticks are homemade so I'm definitely trying those next time I come in! read more

In the past, the food here was consistently delicious. Unfortunately, my most recent visit was disappointing. I ordered the fish and chips, which has always been my go-to, but this time the fish was very soggy and I wasn't provided any tartar sauce. The fries were also soggy, and there was significant condensation inside the container, which affected the overall quality of the meal. I'm hoping this was just an off day, as my previous experiences have been much better. read more

The food was great, and the ambience was spectacular. The waiter greeted us and helped us make the best choices. Definitely will return.

Came here because I was desperately craving some hearty mozzarella sticks. I was drawn to Billy's due to a photo they have displayed on the front page of their google business profile (Refer to screenshot here on my post). Although the food did come out relatively fast, the mozzarella sticks looked nothing like the picture they use for advertisement. The real ones were subpar at best. Good but nothing special. Also, for $13.99 and a smaller size than what I was expecting, I think they could've given a bigger portion. I felt catfished and left a bit disappointed. Besides the food, our bartender Amy was very sweet and kind! And my overall experience here at this bar was decent. I really enjoyed the set up and the whole atmosphere of the space. Plenty of things going on and also, plenty of space. read more

If you're looking for American food, Billy McHales is, in my opinion, Probably one of the best in Federal Way. The ribs were so tender, they practically fall off the bone. The service has always been great and our server, Micheal, was very tentative. Always keep our waters full and I was never without. There's a cool train that runs across along the ceiling which the kids (and some adults) love to watch. read more

Today's special, is very good. The corned beef is tender and the rest is very tasty. Better than I truly expected.

The most shitty customer service at the bar that i have ever had in my entire life. All of the woman working at the bar are rude as fuck and will sit and talk shit about you right in front of you. Genuinely so appalling. read more

Greasy food with mid service. Great ambiance for late night drinks with friends and coworkers. My bf and I had our eye on this place for about a year. So when we finally got the chance to try it we were excited. Sadly, we found out the food is far from worth it. I ordered the bowl of clam chowder (I wouldn't say it's award winning), ordered prime rib dip and paid an extra $1.99 to make it a Plus Dip (totally not worth it. The same crispy onions from the loaf are used on the sandwich..). The prime rib meat was dry and tough. The crispy Onion Ring Loaf caught our eye because it said thinly sliced onions. Huge disappointment when it came to the table. Whoever is in charge of prep, those onions are not thinly sliced. They are thickly cut, not all onions are covered in batter and when sliced open it's grease that oozes out. Couldn't and didn't want to have a tummy full of greasy thick cut onions that weren't battered or crispy. We tried to bring this up with our waitress, Jordan, yet it seemed to have gone over her head and ignored every little request or comment we had. We even asked her how the onion loaf was made but the way she described it made it sound revolting. The vibes of her were not as welcoming as the host and she didn't seem to care at all of our concerns. read more

We had a bridal shower for 20 people. Each person ordered from the menu. All the food came out at the same time and was hot, beautifully plated and all were very pleased with the taste. The service was outstanding. We had a fabulous experience. Thank you to all involved including Erin our server, the manager and the owner. Sincerely, Robyn read more

I have been going here since like the 80's, the building used to have real charm and lots of cool things like a train that ran around the top of the restaurant, and stuffed bears. I hadn't eaten here since the 90's because when the old location closed, I had no idea they had moved... I thought they just closed... So when they popped up on my grub hub, I literally dropped everything to go have dinner. Their new location feels like it doesn't know what it is, it's kinda a sports bar, kinda a BBQ restaurant... I dunno it feels like it really lost that charm it used to have. They still have the train but it's just a little one, and the big stuffed bears are gone. On the other hand the food is still just as great. Their BBQ sauce is very unique and tastes the exact same as I remember. The onion loaf took me back. Their price on their ribs has become astronomical so I went with burgers they were really good tho. And service was impeccable, the waitress was very attentive and kept our drinks full and checked on us often. Over all I would still highly recommend it, but to all the people who remember the old days, it isn't quite the same. read more

We came for lunch one day because we'd never been there. They had decent crowd for a midweek lunch time. We were offered a seat in the bar for happy hour, who knew it started at 1:00. We ate in the dining room. They have a full menu and a nice lunch menu. Both of us had the lunch special half a sandwich, fries and either soup or salad. Both of us had turkey avocado which was huge and very tasty. Salad was just lettuce with some croutons and the fries were obviously frozen and dumped in the deep frier. I wanted a BLT but was told they couldn't do half a sandwich of that, makes no sense to me, why not. Might go back and try dinner. read more

Michael, our server was awesome!! Our water was always full, and he made sure we had anything we needed. The onion log was very good. The salad was tasty. The ribs were cooked to perfection.

Billy McHales is very clean and open. We were fortunate to have a nice, attentive server. Thanks Lisa! She took great care of us! We shared a Caprese salad and we both had pulled pork sandwiches.

We are regulars here I would say. We love the food and we love the karaoke. The only reason I took a star away is because the restroom always smells funky. I've had probably everything on the menu both dining in and late night at the bar. I love the ahi tuna and my fiance loves the fries late at night. Great prices on the food and drinks. All the servers and bartenders have been great and efficient even when packed. Great local place! read more

I like the atmosphere of this place. I never noticed it before, it's so tucked away in the plaza off of Pac Highway. A friend suggested it as a place they used to frequent years ago. It was clean, fairly quiet, had lots of screens all over the place if you're into that but I found it a little distracting, and the servers were friendly. The food is average and a bit bland. My friend said her nachos were flavorless and I could barely bite the huge mozzarella log lol. It was fried super hard so it was not enjoyable I just had them boxed up for my kids to try. They had Jell-O shots in 4colors (not flavors) we each tried one, but they were flavorless. They did come in cute syringe things and were only $1 so cute for Instagram or playful pics. They have a few arcade games and a pool table which was cool, except the pool table is right next to a dining table which could be awkward I imagine ... Overall an average bar and grill experience in a clean place with friendly staff. read more

Food was good. Started with the cheese sticks and they are delicious. I had a Fair Burger and it tasted just like I was at the fair. Fries were very salty and warm but not hot and fresh. Mike was our server and he was great. Refilled our sodas without us having to ask. The atmosphere is strange. It's one giant room without any separation between the bar and the restaurant. I felt like I was part of the table next to ours conversation (they were in the bar and we were not). I could hear everything they said and it felt really awkward. This space really needs some walls and decorations. Overall- good food. read more

My number one steak restaurant in the area for years. It is unfortunate that the last few months it has gone down hill. I got the prime rib a few weeks back and more than 1/3 was fat, now I have gotten prime rib many times here but this last time this meat should not have been served and the rolls did not appear fresh. The last two times I have purchased ribs at Billie McHale's has made me decide not to keep getting food from here. I ordered twice baked potato and you only get one half of a potato. They only put about 1/3 of Cole slaw salad in the small container and again the rolls did not seem fresh. Not worth the money. Never again, so very disappointe. read more

Food was delicious and service is awesome. Will go back there again . Our server super awesome and friendly

Service was sooo slow. The young manager was no help to any of the servers. I suggested he either help out or find our server help and his response was she's busy and will get to you when she gets to you. Well guess what she never got to me! She took our tables order and collected cards immediately, after our drinks never made it out and our food was only half way delivered I asked for my check and card! 45 minutes later, still no drinks, no sauces for our wings and my check (which I had asked for Atleast 4 times) I approached our server to collect my card and at that point the manager again aggressively comes up and says I told you she'd get to you when she gets to you, go sit down! Mind you this is almost 2 hours into our visit and we had barely received a couple of the drinks we had ordered. All I wanted to do was leave and management was harassing me, instead of helping where he could he would rather talk crap and bother customers! I work in the industry and can't believe you would want anyone on your staff that talked to paying customers that way for no reason! Do better management! Your servers shouldn't be struggling to cash tables out while you walk around treating people like crap and making matters worse for them! read more

Unfortunately, today was a colossal disappointment. We love their burger of the gods, but today missed on every level. The patties had obviously been cooked before, and then thrown on the grill to reheat, they were so overdone but not fresh and juicy in the middle. The crispy onions were also cooked a second time. They were gross and hard and really full of oil. The pulled pork was good, but the bun was dry and hard on the outside. The french fries were good and fresh, but there was only a third of a bag. For a $20 burger, they need to improve. read more

Just a solid place to get some good ole American food. Whatever that means. Great burgers, great ribs, great selection of local beer on tap, plenty of tvs for game time if that's your thing, but still feels like a restaurant not a sports bar. The two negative things I have to say are that there is a very loud train running around the ceiling. I don't really get it, it's loud and dusty. The lights also have no covers on them, just bare bulbs. It give the industrial look I'm sure they want, but can be blinding. Definitely recommend for some good food and drinks with friends or family. read more

Food is great! I've gotten it plenty of times delivered and I've gotten it plenty of times in the actual restaurant. Foods always pretty fresh and great American food. The service is really good too.
