    Greasy tasteless enchiladas.
    Mikal S.

    So this place is not bad, but not good either. Let me explain. I went for enchiladas and my partner went for the hamburger. We asked for no sauce on the burger and the cashier excitedly said yes! We got our food to go and we were in a rush, because usually we check our orders to confirm accuracy. Well we got home and realize that there was in fact sauce on the burger, a ton of it actually. So that's a bummer. When it comes to enchiladas, If I am not mistaken, they usually contain sour cream, cheese, veggies, or a combination of them with choice of meat. These sad puppies literally had only meat and grease inside them. The only take away on this plate were the rice and beans that came with the enchiladas. We won't be coming back, unless to get a refund on the burger.

    Um equivalent to In-N-Out??? No honeyyyy. I don't see nor taste it! Honestly the hype from yelp got me a bit excited about this place but I mean really comparing it to In-N-Out plz nothing beats In-N-Out. Especially the fries idek why people say the fries are similar bc they ain't. The fries here are literally undercooked and soggy af not to mention THEY DONT EVEN PUT SALT ON THEM. My friend even found a nasty green looking fry. Like wyd??? Anyways the service was great! The employee was nice and made small talk with us. Interior is like a 50s diner feel. The burgers themselves weren't too bad they just kinda reminded me of McDonalds. Now I don't know if that's a good or bad thing I'll just let YOU the reader decided that! But yeah they have this thing called the "fry sauce" which is pretty much ketchup mixed with mayo. I don't necessarily see myself coming back here HOWEVER I do recommend trying their Mexican restaurant right next door that was pretty good and cheap!! Definitely check that out before going here. Also the location kinda sketch since its Tacoma so stay safe homies

    12 Steak Tacos

    Great food, love it! We used to order from here all of the time. We only had one issue the last time we bought food here. We paid for 14 tacos and once we got home we noticed there was only 12 in the bag. We live a few minutes away, so we asked if we could pick up the other 2 or receive a refund, but they refused to do so. We even took pictures, but the manager said we were lying and was rude. Me and my wife really like the food here and would come here almost on a weekly basis. Unfortunately, we will never buy food from here again- due to their poor customer service, lack of willingness from management to mitigate the problem, and for literally stealing money from us. We will be filling complaints with multiple city and state authorities.

    Great burgers. A little pricey. Fries were yummy! Located on 38th and McKinley. Tight parking spaces since it's also shared with a taco shop next door. The sauce for the fries was good!

    Ok so I got here a few months ago, and I was a little shocked that In N Out does not have a location here. I mean seriously they have just opened like 8 locations in Dallas Texas over the past couple of years, so How the Hell do they not have a location here in WA? --Unbelievable.-- So I have been looking around for something that resembles a decent burger here... I looked all over and found a few acceptable choices. Today, I came here to Burger Broiler looking for a juicy chargrilled burger never imagining what I would find here..... It makes PERFECT sense when you think about it.... What do Smart Mexican people do when they are missing the Yummy In N Out burgers they loved in Cali?? I'm glad you asked ..... Do they sit around whining about not having any way to get their burger fix? NO... they open a Burger Broiler and make the damn burgers right here. PROBLEM SOLVED. Oh but wait it gets better.... FLAME BROIL the patties and now its NOT an "In N Out knock off", No sir... its 100% better !! SO take your happy self to Burger Broiler and fall in love. The grilled onions weren't on it, but I can live without that. FIVE STARS for Clean, Hot Fresh Food, And Price SUPER CHEAP. Hard to park there, so be ready to weave in the lot. If the persons you go with like Mexican Food there is a good place next door, but GET A BURGER!!!!! DOUBLE Cheese Burger with Fries and a Drink under $7. YUM To me HANDS DOWN BEST BURGER IN TACOMA.

    Double cheeseburger

    I ordered a double cheeseburger and bacon cheese fries through door dash. The fries were delicious but when I bit into the burger something tasted off. Thought maybe it was bad lettuce so I removed that, took another bite still tasted weird, took a bite from a different spot and it still tasted weird... through out more than 3/4 of the burger. Something was seriously nasty in there and I'm not sure what it was .

    There are a bunch of mixed reviews on here comparing this place to In-n-Out. So I will be another one to agree that this place comes pretty close to In-n-Out! Which makes this my favorite burger joint in Washington. I really like how they have a little condiment station where you can get banana peppers, which is a total In-n-Out thing! Service is great, the ladies that I've encountered are all friendly and polite. I deduct a start because there are a few times where I had to wipe my own table. Also, the soda machine where you can customize your own flavors are very limited. I get super excited whenever I see a restaurant have the Coca-Cola Freestyle machine because that means I can get a vanilla coke. But they didn't have that option, or much other options :( Other than that, I really like this place. Unlike In-n-Out where they have a small, simple, menu; Burger Broiler has other things like chicken wings, onion rings, and fish sandwiches. Their buffalo wings are pretty good, so definitely give those a try! They have their own parking lot, which is nice. However, be aware of your surroundings when outside because I've seen people stand around by cars or sitting on the curb in the parking lot. So definitely keep an eye on your car while inside the restaurant.

    The atmosphere is kind of dive bar, but with really great food and cocktails. The tots, which are…read moremore of a croquette, are always amazing. We've also enjoyed the brussells sprouts. On our most recent visit we tried the nachos, and they were honestly the best nachos I've ever had. The cheese sauce is amazing- not some gross canned stuff. The chicken is perfectly seasoned, and the ingredients are layered throughout so you're not stuck with a bunch of plain chips. It feels silly to be gushing about nachos, but they are next level. It's not cheap, but well worth it!

    Dirty Oscar's Annex - Disappointing Experience on 6th Ave…read more We came in as a group of seven, and unfortunately the experience went downhill quickly. First, the service was poor and disorganized. One of my friends arrived early and ordered her drink, but it didn't arrive until after I had already received mine -- even after she asked twice. We also had to wait far too long for basic things like napkins and forks because we weren't given enough for everyone. The most frustrating part, however, was the automatic gratuity. At no point were we informed -- verbally or on the menu -- that parties of 6 or more are charged an automatic 20% gratuity. We only discovered it by carefully reviewing our checks. And to make matters worse, the so-called "20%" was not actually 20%. It came out to 24.1%. When we questioned it, the person who said she was the manager claimed "the computer does it automatically." We are a table full of teachers -- and the math was definitely not mathing. We understand and respect gratuity for large parties, especially when the service is great or when it's clearly communicated. But charging more than the stated percentage crosses from poor service into a billing integrity issue. To add to the frustration, there is also a credit card processing fee, which again was not clearly disclosed on the menu and only appeared at the bottom of the receipt. This absolutely should be visibly posted before ordering. They did offer to refund some of the charges, but we declined because it would have taken additional time and we had an event to get to -- and more importantly, it doesn't resolve the core issue of lack of transparency. She also gave each of us a $10 gift card, but again, that doesn't resolve the issue. And honestly, what good is a gift card if we don't plan on returning because of such an awful experience? Overall, this was a very disappointing visit, and not one we would recommend based on service and transparency alone.

    So how does a place go from 1 star to 5? 1. Customer service…read more2. Acceptance of feedback 3. Excellent food 4. Wide variety of drinks alcoholic and non-alcoholic! So let me explain! My last review was honest but a 1star- now they could have ignored it, denied it or even got rude about it- after all others have (see aspen house) But no, they reached out and asked to open up dialogue- they asked what could be done and they APOLOGIZED- ownership and accountability! The communication was on point and the definitely made good on everything! So we set out to give it another go- and seriously- I may have a new place to hang out! As a non drinker your average joint has water juice or soda- not here The selection of non alcoholic beers and the DELICIOUS MOCKTAILS!!!! A place that doesn't get upset when you order a fancy non alcoholic drink- and you get the feel of being a part of it all not just sippin a soda! Loooved ! Personally hooked on the sweet n tangy- (Sweet & Tangy DHOS Orange, lemon & lime juice, simple, & raspberry puree ) ---delicious! My partner tried a couple non alcoholic beers he didn't even know existed- excellent variety to make everyone feel a part of the crowd!! And if you love a good drink?? They only carry high end liquor and make their drinks definitely top notch! The kind of place that values quality!!! While keeping the prices competitive and honest! Now the food- BRIE- ohhhh the Brie dishes!!! Not many places create food art- creative delicious classic combos with a unique twist! Absolutely the place to check out and try a new dish! Unique items that I'm dying to go back for!!! One definitely to try-- "Apple Brie Grilled Cheese Apple chutney with caramelized onions, granny smith apple slices, brie & cheddar cheese, melted between parmesan crusted 3 Hearts Bread" yummmmmmm The best part though- the people- friendly outgoing crew that you can tell genuinely care about each other and also care about making sure that the people stopping by have a wonderful experience!!! If you're in the area or live near there- check them out- definitely the kinda place to stop in on the regular and make it a thing!!!! Can be smidge hard to find due to construction that should end soon but worth the hunt!!! A total Gem!! Good quality food, excellent service, and a 10/10 place to stop in! You won't regret supporting this small local women owned business!

We opted to share an appetizer of Dirty Martini Dip, which was tasty. We saw a waitress walk out with a Salmon Salad that looked delicious. We would possibly return in the future.

After what I believe to have been 2 years of saying that, that day has finally come. First, parking near the restaurant was limited, however finding parking in the residential area was fine. We found parking about 2 minutes away from the restaurant. As we came with my best friend, who, by the way, was the reason why I finally stepped foot here, wait time wasn't long as she came about 5 minutes earlier than I. We came for brunch and it was busy but the wait was not bad at all. The both of us ordered the same items on the menu from both the drinks, the main and dessert - a sangria, Shakshuka with lamb, and beignets. We also brought our daughters with us. They ordered a cheeseburger with a side of caesar salad and a mac n cheese dish from the kids menu. Our orders were delicious, although I was expecting the shakshuka dish to be heftier. For the price - $17. xx with an additional $4 to add lamb - it was a little disappointing, to be honest, especially since it was lacking in the lamb department. I was still hungry but thankfully I had my 4 year old's leftover cheeseburger and salad to fill me right up. As for the beignets, it was good. I don't have anything to compare it to since I don't know what an actual beignet tastes like. Would I return? Sure.

    I went to this restaurant in Tacoma over the weekend. I had actually passed by many times…read morebefore--the eye-catching signage and overall atmosphere always drew me in. Finally got a chance to try it at noon today, and it was a great experience! Environment: The overall vibe is very American. There were TVs on the walls constantly playing various ball games, like today's playoff game between the Thunder and the Lakers. It was pretty busy on the weekend, especially the outdoor seating area, which was almost full. The building is an old structure dating back to the 1900s. Though it shows its age, it's very clean both inside and out--you can tell the owner really cares. Service: Our waitress was very, very friendly and professional. She gave us great recommendations, always served with a smile, checked in on us during the meal, and refilled our water. Very satisfied! Taste: Pizza: There's a funny little story: supposedly, Marco Polo went to China and saw pies, but didn't know how to wrap the filling inside, so he just put it on top--and thus the pizza was born. Personally, I think this is a myth, or many people have started fantasizing about Marco Polo because they think he was too great. But according to various unearthed historical records in China, Marco Polo never actually went to China. In fact, around 2010, more than 20 scholars organized an event called "Retracing Marco Polo's Route." After completing the journey and comparing it to what Marco Polo himself recorded, most of them concluded that he probably never made it to China. Sorry, I have a strong urge to share--went off on a long tangent about Marco Polo. But the pizza was really delicious. It should be truly fire‑baked, not oven‑baked. The sauce was well‑balanced, and the toppings were generous and fresh. My wife and I ate more than half of it! Salad: The dressing and cheese were very generously applied, and the greens were fresh. Chicken wings: They had a pleasant sweet‑savory taste, just right. Unlike most American restaurants where they're too salty or too sweet, these were perfectly balanced. All the dipping sauces were good. Overall, highly recommended!
