    One of the better franchises in the area. Was passing through Gig Harbor and Car's sounded like a good stop. Not far off the freeway made it one of the better choices. Love the floor plan with the second floor seating and the TV on the first in the seating area. It is Saturday and it was on College Football, cool! Friendly cashier took my order with ease and food was delivered warm, fast and accurate. Of course fast food meals never look like they do on the photos, but that is expected as long as the taste is enjoyable, and it was. I have been to several locations in Pierce County and my burger patty has been dry and over-charred, this burger (Double Western) was moist and not burned. Well done! Only issue was the cleanliness of this location. First thing after any length of drive was to use the restroom and wash my hands. The urinal was not able to flush ( paper not stating to keep handle horizontal) and wet floor come in-place, but not able to flush. The waste bin was full. Yes, they are minimum staffed and it is lunch time so I will give them the benefit of the doubt, but two tables were not wiped and had trash on them from inconsiderate people who chose not to throw their trash away. It was cleaned off halfway through my meal. Staff was friendly and greeted me and thanked me after my order was complete and when my meal was delivered to my table.

    Stickers included at no extra charge.

    Ate here with my boys on our way to a Boy Scout campout. Several minor issues and two major ones. The cashier did not listen to me and I had to repeat my order 3 times. No debit was available. The cashier did not know how to process a discount. The drive thru cashier was very short with him when he asked for help. The drive thru cashier kept delivering food to tables in the restaurant and as he was walking around he would almost yell into a headset, "Welcome to Carl's Jr." When our food arrived, it was all wrong. I ordered a double cheeseburger plain and it came with lettuce, mayonnaise, pickle and tomato. I ordered a double with grilled onions and got raw onions. I ordered two milk shakes to share with my boys but with no whipped cream. The milkshakes were just over half full. As for the two Major issues, while eating my burger I chewed into something nasty tasting and the wrong texture. It was a little round sticker with writing on it. I took it up front and asked to speak to a manager to show her the sticker in my food. I told her I found the sticker in my burger and in an irritated tone she said, "Sorry," and stared at me in silence for about 30 seconds. I opened mouth to ask for my money back and she spun on her heels and walked away. I said, "Ok well I guess I take my sticker and go home," to the space where she once stood, cleaned up our mess, warned the next two customers to check their for stickers, and left. The sticker was bad enough but her rude behavior and lack of response to my problem is unforgivable. Avoid this place.

    Every Rating should be 5 stars…read more I ordered the Bacon Cheddar Burger, and it was exceptional. The beef was perfectly seasoned and juicy, but the real standout was the quality of the toppings. The bacon was thick-cut and crispy, providing that essential smoky crunch without overpowering the sharp, melted cheddar. Everything is served on a fresh bun that actually holds up to the last bite. The Fries: You can't skip the sides here. The fries were hot, golden, and seasoned to perfection--exactly what you want to pair with a heavy hitter like the Bacon Cheddar. The Vibe: The atmosphere is welcoming and unpretentious, making it the perfect spot whether you're a local or just passing through the harbor. The service was prompt and friendly, even during the lunch rush. Final Verdict: It's rare to find a place that nails the "gourmet" aspect without losing the soul of a classic burger. If you are in Gig Harbor, this is a mandatory stop. I'll definitely be back to work my way through the rest of the menu!

The food is indulgent, satisfying, and clearly crafted with quality in mind, making it a strong contender for a go-to burger spot. That said, the pricing is hard to ignore. Spending over $80 for three meals feels steep, even considering the quality. Still, the flavor and execution make it an experience -- one best enjoyed when you're willing to splurge.

    Amazing food!! Thank you Matt and Leona!! Great job at our event for Rainier Olympic Nurses…read moreAssociation last night! The falafel wraps were delicious! Well seasoned with the amazing dressing. We also had turkey and havarti sandwiches, as well as a simple garden salad and soups. They worked with us to keep our costs down. They also walked through and cleared tables as we finished. Great extra touch. Thank you!

    We have been here many times. The last couple of times we've experienced extremely long wait times…read more(as in over an hour from when we sit down to when food arrived) and spent over two hours eating dinner because of it. During the most recent visit, we waited over 30 minutes for drinks, another 15 minutes for our kids' apple juices, and never received water. They were also out of several menu options. One of these visits was to celebrate a family member's birthday and it felt like they struggled with the big table (12 people). By the time we got to dessert/singing happy birthday and opening presents, everyone including the birthday girl was tired and ready to leave. Prior to these most recent visits, we have loved the ambiance and food options for kids. I like the cocktails and flatbreads. Staff have always been very friendly. I just would not come here again with a big group to celebrate an occasion, we've had better luck coming for happy hour.

    Netshed No. 9 is a must for the absolute best brunch…read more Ample outdoor seating, mimosas while you wait to be seated, fresh salads, enormous sourdough pancakes, and the most incredible cinnamon rolls that are so hot and fresh you'll be drooling over them. Since this is a popular place in Gig Harbor you can expect a long wait on a sunny day, but staff do a great job of turning tables and getting everyone seated as promptly as possible. So don't let the line deter you from going here-trust me, it's worth it to be patient for this one!

    Great place. Good luck finding a parking spot during the hours they're open…read more Excellent service; equally excellent coffee. I had the BLT, which was very good, but nothing I'd leave Arizona for (by itself). What WAS superlative in all regards was the Tomato Bisque soup, which IS THE BEST I've had. THAT I'd drive from Arizona for. Two of us at the table had the "Stuffed Biscuit" -- which was an excellent Portuguese sausage wrapped in a biscuit, all drowning in a sea of red gravy based on the sausage. One other person at the table with us had some form of pancakes loaded with all sorts of sweet stuff: I tried the stuffed sausage but wasn't offered a bite o' pancakes. Oh, what the young can eat! Other than parking is the matter of prices. Four breakfasts, 3 coffees, 1 soda: $125.00 before tip. Breathtaking food: breathtaking prices.
