Gringo Taco
Lauren S.

It's been a long time since I wrote an update for Cloud 9... After a recent trip, I decided that it was time given that we live in a MUCH different world than we did in 2015. Parking lot is pretty big. Used to fit LOTS of cars when dart tournaments were allowed. There is a heated tent now as well for guests to use for outdoor dining/drinking. I was pleasantly surprised when I came in and the tables are all distanced really well, people were sticking with their groups, and wearing masks if they were not at their table. Bar seating is not allowed still, if I remember correctly. They also have Golden Tee, pool tables, and dart boards here. I believe they only have a few dart boards operating right now to keep in accordance with Covid guidelines, though. Another bonus for me is that Cloud carries Truly hard seltzers - and the hard teas! SO good if you aren't a beer person. The bartenders are also really nice and remember your order if you come in enough *cough cough, me.* What more could you want from a dive bar...? Good food? Well THEY HAVE THAT TOO. My absolute favorites are the Gringos Tacos & the Gringos Quesadilla, both of which they are famous for. The tacos are a MUST try - just read the other reviews! I always go with the pork and it's always moist, full of flavor, and all around delicious. The sauce they put on their tacos is also heaven sent. Whatever they put in it.... I don't know. I'd bathe in it. It's that good. Cloud is the perfect dive bar to hit up if you're looking for laid back fun, good food, and strong pours. Highly recommend. Just look at my check-in count... There's so many reasons to keep coming back!

Get their Gringo Tacos (pork or chicken doesnt matter).. We stopped by on Sunday evening and wanted to try out their Gringo tacos and we were not disappointed. The sauce was awesome and so was the crunchiness from the salad on the tacos. Everyone was busy playing darts and having a good time. Service was good. Place was crowded but folks not seated at the table were wearing a mask. No seating at the bar. Overall a nice dive bar.

Nice dive bar. We came on a Saturday night. They had a DJ. Mostly spent our time playing darts. Pool tables were booked all night. This club has a level of raunch without the extra ghetto. Drinks prices were fair and our Adios were strong.

My favorite bar to come to in Kent. The Gringo Tacos are absolutely delicious and the drinks are reasonably priced. The bartenders are very friendly, fun and knowledgable.

Big selection!!

Good local sports bar with a Great Staff! If you like darts, pool & sports TV, they have you covered! two pool tables, over 10 dart boards & 6 LCD TV's! They even have Skee-Ball! every weekend they have a rotation of great DJ's spinning everything from Top 40, Dance Remix's, R n B, Dubstep, Oldskool and Rock. Nice and chill during the day for an after work drink and some food. It really picks up and night for a fun party atmospher!

See all

Best tacos ever. I don't even drink and I come here for the tacos :) I suggest the gringo pork tacos. I prefer them over the quesadillas

These are the best cheese curds ever bc the batter isn't heavy like other cheese curds I've had. It's tempura battered so it's light and you can taste the cheese more. The jalapeño strawberry dip and ranch are good dips, but try them together and it will blow your mind. The fried green beans were okay. They did have a heavier batter on them and I wish they had the same batter the cheese curds had. The spicy dip was good! The rosemary popcorn was delicious! It had just enough butter and the perfect amount of rosemary where it's not overpowering. Once you get to the bottom, there's tons of butter and you just dip and soak it up with the popcorn. Also, PATTI was AMAZING!!!! She checked in on us throughout the evening. She's very sweet and I will be back bc of Patti!

I visited on Super Bowl Sunday, about 2-3hrs before the game to get seats. This was a good idea because there was only a handful of seats available. We were lucky enough to get a table for 4 of us. The hosts were very welcoming and go us seated at the bar when it was only two of us. When we informed them about an hour prior to kick off that we needed two more seats, they did their best to get us seated. It was very kind of them to even look around, let alone actually find us space. This was very much appreciated. The first hour or so, when there was only two of us, we had a few beers, the cheese curds and the chicken fried steak with potatoes. The beers were exactly what you think they would taste like and they weren't terribly expensive which was nice. The cheese curds were a great shareable item, good flavor and a fair amount of them. The chicken fried steak was good, nothing crazy, but not below average. Portion was good sand it was cooked right to have that nice crips on the outside with the gravy poured over top. I think the only thing I wasn't that big of a fan of was the potatoes, I should've opted for the tots or hash potatoes instead, but I'll have to try it again. Yes, I would recommend this place. Seems like a good place to meet with friends for a game and meet friends. I almost forgot to mention they have an outside area in the back was is covered so there's more than enough space to maneuver and enjoy your time.

Our incredible server Trey soon came over and helped us decide on some drinks, as we were debating between a few. The menu has so many options, it was hard to just choose one! We soon put our appetizer orders in, as well as our entrees. The calamari tasted fresh and crispy, what's not to like? The oysters I was recommended, tasted sooo fresh! The smoked salmon deviled egg was something I've never thought would work, but it tasted amazing. You can never go wrong with fish and chips, which tasted great! Our server was so sweet and was very attentive throughout the whole night. Dessert time came around and Trey recommended this Washington berry pie, we were sold! It came out deliciously warm with some ice cream on top, which was the cherry on top for our night!! Can't say enough great things about this restaurant, great staff, solid menu, we will definitely be back!!

The food is good, but not something that will bring you back over and over again. The service on the other hand is incredibly good. Kind, thoughtful and incredibly authentic. We took my mother - a person who lives with disabilities and requires a mobility scooter. The staff went out of their way to help her feel comfortable and well taken care of. In my book - the staff of Duke's of south Lake Union are a solid 5 stars rating. And, the food is a 3'ish rating. Put together- it's a place that is worth visiting if for nothing else than the amazing staff. Oh, and the view on Lake Union is also really great, especially if you can grab a table near one of the patio heaters.

I made a reservation ahead of time, but when we got there around 8 pm we realized we probably didn't need one because it was seat yourself and still pretty open. No complaints though, it made it easy to grab a table and settle in. The vibe was cool. Definitely a sports bar feel with TVs around, and as the night went on the DJ started getting set up which I can imagine makes it a fun spot on a Friday night for people meeting up after work or hanging out with friends. We decided to share a few things so we could try a little bit of everything. We ordered the catfish bites, lemon pepper wings, garlic parmesan wings, and macaroni and cheese. I'll start with the positives because the service was great. Everyone we interacted with was friendly and helpful, which always makes a difference. Food-wise, it just didn't totally hit for me. The catfish bites had a really tasty batter, but the texture threw me off a little. I personally like my catfish cooked a little harder, and these were a bit soft for my liking. The lemon pepper wings were a little too salty for me, and the wings themselves weren't cooked quite the way I like them. I tend to like my wings cooked a little harder, so these felt a bit soft and bulky to me (if that makes sense). The garlic parmesan wings were okay flavor-wise, but still similar in texture. The macaroni and cheese was okay. Nothing bad, just pretty standard. The menu itself has a good mix of comfort food and bar favorites like chicken and waffles, shrimp & grits, burger & fries....so there are definitely options to try. Overall, the service were great, the vibe was cool and I can definitely see this being a fun spot once the DJ gets going and the place fills up. The food just didn't quite land for me personally this time. I gave it 3 stars, but if Yelp allowed half stars it would probably be closer to a 3.5 for me. I'd still be open to coming back and trying a few other things on the menu.

Nice that they have regular test, low test and no test drinks depending on how much alcohol you want. Food was very tasty, we had the lobster pasta and the fajitas. The tortillas were very flimsy so messy but still nice flavor and good amount of food.. started with the hummus which is what I was told to try there and yes a creative hummus plate... which brings me to the only hiccup... The chef gets creative at times and apparently edamame is in season so randomly added to the hummus even though not on the menu. Found out half way through then had to verify what beans they were and couldn't eat rest of dish. Server was awesome about it and wasn't a problem but if you have any allergies be aware the menu MAY not be exact so make sure you ask if there are any "enhancements" if you have any known issues. Overall highly recommend.

But a couple other things just spoiled it.... Service was slow, the server mostly absent, and the starters and the main dishes were served all at once. I wonder what the server was thinking a "starter" was supposed to be.... This was during an evening in February and the place was way overheated , I estimated something close to 80F where we were sitting. Cocktails were fine and I will come back to just sit at bar for that, but the dinner experience was just not for me at Joey's.
