Dusty's has been a regular rotation burger bar for a few years now since I discovered it. I wish they'd bring back the peanut butter burger! That was my hook and the main reason I wanted to go. Maybe I'll start sneaking in my own PB.. Great location. Very good burgers that are many steps above the rest. They do one thing (many ways) and do it well. I guess there are chicken strips too, but I go for the burgers and fries. Unique ingredients. Yummy jam. Crispy bacon.. Crap.. I might need to go tonight now. Ugh. Cocktails and beers too. Hot chocolate. It's a cute old house converted into a cozy restaurant. It still feels like a house, but with tables and benches rather than sofas and arm chairs. It really feels like just going to a friend's house and hanging out. Bonus is they make good food too. read more

Good experience at Dusty's! Not much inside seating but a lot outside. Great cocktail menu and juicy burgers full of flavor. Waitstaff was fairly attentive although the order runner kept getting confused on what tables were which. read more

Checked out Dusty's Hideaway for a girls lunch. Our server was nice and quick with getting everything out to us. We loved our boozy slushies. The menu had a variety of food options including some veggie/vegan options to choose from. I got the hot honey chicken sandwich and tater tots. My friends got the build your own burger and chicken strips. Everything was hot, fresh, and tasty. The servings were large and we ended up taking food home. We went on a cold winter day after a snow storm, so we ate inside. The interior is colorful and cozy. I'd love to go back on a sunny day to eat outside and try another rotating slushy flavor. It looks like they have a lot of outside seating available in the warmer months. read more

Not sure what's with the negative reviews but I had a really delicious sandwich here. Ahead of time we ordered on DoorDash as we were on a time crunch and had extra DoorDash credits to use. Under $20 for the sandwich and tater tots is okay price but the portions are good and the quality is up there. We got the hot honey chicken sandwich, and the chicken batter is so crispy while the chicken held the juiciness. The hot honey is apparent with the sweetness but it was truthfully not too spicy for me. They were generous with the tater tots and one order is enough for 2 people to enjoy a satisfying meal. read more

I never use the word "queer," but I feel it's really apt here. Just a super, super funky restaurant inside of a modified Craftsman home decorated with all of the gender identity flags. I was the first to arrive for the day and was greeted fairly promptly. He told me to sit anywhere and he'd bring the menus shortly. Other people started coming in very quickly after and service really slowed down. If I had to guess there was one person in the front and one in the kitchen. While slow, service was friendly. They had several seasonal drinks and I went with Santa's Slay, which was overall pretty a-okay. For food I got the Grit City Griller, which is veggie, with some tots and the entire reason I ended up at Dusty's in the first place: ranch dressing. Yes. As odd as it sounds, I heard the ranch dressing was really good and I came here mostly just to check out a condiment. Overall brunch was perfectly fine. The ranch was good. The tots were hot and crispy, and the burger was pretty good as well. I'd give this experience a 3.5 stars. This is one of those places I probably won't come to again on my own, but if someone suggested it I'd be down. read more

I stopped in randomly and ordered chicken strips and tots. The menu read 4 strips $18. I was given 2 strips. They were fine, tasted good, service was nice. Busy but they were on it. When I questioned the 2 strips vs 4 on the menu I was told they accidentally gave me the kid portion. Not a problem I didn't need four but when I got the receipt I wasn't charged a kid menu price I was charged the $18. I questioned this charge. The person who range me up said they don't have a 2 strip kid menu option, I was charged for the full $18 for half my meal price was not adjusted. It's not a lot of money, but I don't like being charged for something I didn't get and getting oh-well attitude. No price adjustment and I don't want to come back. read more

Great food, great service, unique atmosphere. Also extremely reasonable prices. Will definitely be back soon read more

A friendly neighborhood burger joint with tasty unique menu options! My family and I have been in the works of coming here for a while. The place is mellow and has indoor and outdoor seating. Dusty's is a residence, most likely someone's previous home once upon a time, but it's spacious and the owners made it work! We ordered The Dusty's, which has bacon, egg over easy, grilled onions with American cheese, lettuce and tomato. Then, there was The Murf which is a double patty with grilled onions and mushrooms, cheddar, steak sauce, and horseradish mayo. Lastly, we ordered their BLAT (bacon, lettuce, avocado, and tomato). You can choose your side such as fries, a side salad, onion rings, or tots. Don't worry, if you're not a red meat eater, they also have chicken and salad options, which also look great. Service was average and laid back. Definitely a great business to support. You'll leave satisfied and stuffed! read more

This is a house converted in to a locals bar hang out. Menu is bar food usual though there are some added options you not find at a bar. Parking is street parking only, no parking lot. Visited on Tuesday night, trivia night. Table options are both inside and outside. I sat outside, nice night, and enjoyed listening to the trivia questions. I ordered the 6 piece wings and grilled cheese + bacon. Sandwich came with options and I chose tater tots. Can't go wrong with tots. The wings were huge, and could only finish 3 of the 6. Grill bacon and cheese hit the spot. Service was great and friendly from entry to exit. Thank you Dusty's for an enjoyable evening. read more

Love this place. Refrequent often, dare I say weekly? The food has been always delicious, the services always lovely, and it's just a good funky place that relax and have a nice drink. The drinks are delicious, try the nai tai spritzer! And for the people that say it's not kid friendly, how about you don't bring your kid to a bar? It may be family appropriate but if you're worried about your kids hearing cuss words in the music that's played there, then I feel sorry for your child out in the world today. Go the the Ram if you want a true family friendly place. This place is a true Tacoma gem. Love it. read more

Long time consumer, first time reviewer. Dusty's is a spectacular restaurant! The fact they are located in an old house in a beautiful part of town is automatically a plus. Their outside patio is pretty, calming, and refreshing. Everyone who works there (at least who I have interacted with) has always been friendly, helpful, and accommodating! I went last night and knew exactly what I wanted! Once you go a few times you familiarize yourself with their menu cause it isn't too big and they have amazing, memorable, and delicious dishes! If you want to relax in the sun and have a good meal, Dusty's Hideaway is a must go! P.S. in the summer they have corn hole (for sure) and some propane fire pits (I think?) in their patio area. read more

We were quite underwhelmed, they had plenty of outdoor seating available but not a lot of shade. It was a beautiful day so we embraced it. We were told to sit wherever was clean and waited about 15 minutes before someone came to take drink orders. I wasn't feeling a cocktail; however, the ones I saw come out looked pretty. The lemonade tasted kind of like when you were a kid and drank out of the hose, maybe the gun needed to be cleaned? We waited about 30 minutes for our food to come out. The pulled pork on the Jaw Day was dry, and when I say it was dry the honey saw and slaw did nothing to help it. The pro was that the tots were hot and crispy. We really wanted to like this place but it just didn't work for us. Maybe we'll try again, but we're kind of on the fence. read more

Well I am from Texas so today was a hot one to be sitting outside. I am pretty sure I brought the heat with me. Make no judgement this place was delicious despite the heat outside. I have never ever in my long legged life had such great onion rings. These topped any. The BLT was a huge hit with almost every one, it was the horseradish mayo that called us all. Tater tots were like the best. The jalapeño popper with the jam just called my name. Excellent beer and drink selection. I loved Sarah and Shae. So sweet and so willing to provide drink and menu tips. Shout Dusty's Hideaway. I want to say I was so dang happy and privileged to come here‍‍! read more

Have not roamed this part of Tacoma for a while looking for a burger, have to say, spectacular!. Much better than my master provides me when left overs are available, so roaming into this place was a surprise!! Quaint older style house, with lots of windows to watch for stray cats and wounded birds while eating a delicious burger and fries. Will definitely come back to "Point"......time for a nap........5 barks for Dusty's!!!! read more

After a horrible experience at another restaurant, we came to Dusty's Hideway and it was definitely a way better vibe. Everyone is super friendly and welcoming, and there's great food options and plenty of outdoor seatings. The girls working there checked on us often to make sure everything was okay and asked if we needed anything. Parking is difficult to find, so best spot would be street parking in the neighborhoods. First off, the portions were huge!! My friends also ordered burgers and they didn't finish their meal either because we were so full lol. I ordered the smokestack burger and really liked the onion rings with bbq sauce. Jalapeño stuffed cream cheese stacked on top, chefs kiss. Fries were great! It was half off wings Wednesday so we ordered half honey garlic and mango habanero. Honey garlic had a lot of honey with a slight sour tang, but not much garlic. I liked the mango habanero as it's not too spicy. I didn't realize until I saw my receipt but wished I was told fyi they do charge extra $2 per sauce. read more

Food is very good. Everyone is nice. The bar is an issue. Drinks are priced at the top end. Slow drink service, we got our food before our margaritas. They tasted like lemon juice. We sent them back and never got new drinks. We had to ask for a refund on the drinks. 5 years ago this place was our go to Friday night hang. To bad, we won't be back anytime soon. read more

Lady that greeted my partner and I at the front was rude. Kitchen closed at 8:28 PM. All that was fine.. no problem there. I've been here a few times, so I know how the drinks are "supposed" to taste. Same lady that was rude made our drinks, and they were terrible. I will NOT be back. Crossing Dusty's hideaway off my to go to list. If you want bad drinks, and service, this is the place for you! read more

Well had a good burger at Dusty's. I basically had a mushroom Swiss burger with two patties and onion rings. It was nice. I think having the second Patty was a mistake on my part. More isn't always better. It was almost too much ground beef at that point, but that's on me. Everything was seasoned. Well, good flavor. The service was exceptional And they actually gave me an additional cider for free, when they had an extra one poured. They were very friendly, thoughtful. We also ordered the chicken wings. If you like sauced up wings you will definitely enjoy these. They're decent sized, again. Good flavor. I can't remember what the sauce was but I think it was a mango something or other. I enjoyed the atmosphere that is located in a house. They're pro lgbtq which was nice. It feels friendly, and inviting to any and all. If you're cruising through Tacoma, I certainly recommend these folks. read more

It was way overpriced and all the drinks had grapefruit juice in it for why? I will say that the fried cauliflower is on point in definitely a must order. read more

Dusty's Hideaway is located in a cool Craftsman on the corner. I've been here four or five times now. I've only sat inside, and each time I've come it's been for food (not drinks). The tots are good (and plentiful), and the grilled cheese is pretty tasty, and my various friends have enjoyed their food. The thing that tends to pull down my rating most is that I've never really felt very welcomed there. We came once right around opening and it looked like the staff was annoyed at our presence. Other times I've been there, the service has been minimal. I saw someone call it "laid back" in one of the reviews, which is probably pretty accurate, but I just get the sense that having customers is annoying to the staff. It makes me feel like I should be really apologetic for asking for anything. I don't mind laid-back, but even a friendly greeting would go a long way here. read more

A perfectly acceptable though hardly outstanding lunch with perfectly acceptable though hardly outstanding or overly friendly service deserves a perfectly acceptable though hardly extensive tip. Apparently, the folks who run Dusty's disagree - at least based on the defaults listed at the bottom of the bill. I don't think I've ever tipped *any* server 25 or 30 percent of my bill for *any* level of service, let alone for the just average service that I received here. And, without telling us in advance, we were charged $4 for four small cups of ranch dressing. Sneaky way to pad the bill, folks. As you can see, I rewarded my server more than adequately - but this bit of self-serving assumption doesn't mean that I'll be rushing back into Dusty's door anytime soon. There are frankly better burgers to be had elsewhere, along with far better service. read more

BLACK PEOPLE! They are RACIST! Both of those woman needs more training. Me and my husband come here often, and probably still will, this visit we brought our nephews and my mother. We followed in a WHITE family of 3 and We sat down at a picnic table right behind them. There is a sign on the table that says sit tight someone will be with you soon. We weren't trippin, we sat down, and waited for our server while my mother was parking her car. When the server came out, she was very nice to the other family, bought them water, menus, told them about their specials. Then she came over to us, and the first thing she said was "you have to come inside and check in." I apologized I said I had the kids, I wasn't sure. She tried to take our order, we told her we didn't have menus, but I'd take a water and the boys whatever juice. She said the water is upfront and I can get it myself. I was shocked, I walked to both water stations, both empty. I walked inside and I said hey both water stations are empty. She cuts me off and said give her a minute. I go back to the table, my family of 5 wait 10mins for someone to come back by with maybe water or something. I see the server go to that other table to check on them. My husband goes hey can we have some service. The server says she didn't think we needed service and she assumed we were going to just leave. I was so upset, we just had to go.... Horrible service to already overpriced underwhelming food. We come for the ambience. read more

I ordered through Doordash and screwed up and reviewed before I actually saw my burger. I paid 50 bucks total including the tip. I ordered a burger with tater tots, and a side with tots and onion rings. The tots and onion rings were awesome. The burger was gross. I requested no grilled onions, fresh instead, plus tomato, mayo, and cheese, but instead got a dry, yucky grilled onion burger with no tomato, cheese or fresh onions. I have no desire to eat this at all. I live close so I am going to bring them back their nasty burger tomorrow. YUCK! read more

Dusty's Hideaway is this cute, craftsman style house redone to be a restaurant, that sits on a corner lot in Tacoma. It's decorated with different colors and colored lights. While I've never eaten there in person, my family and I have placed online orders and done a pick up. I will say that I've had food here a few times before and it was good and the portions are large. I've had a burger from here, a salad and fries. The rest of my family has had mostly burgers and just yesterday (Mother's Day), they all had burgers again, with two of my family having the phatty melt. They loved their meals for the most part. I opted for another item that I had not tried before called the Cali Club. This is a fried chicken thigh, avocado, arugula, pico de gallo and mama's mayo on a brioche bun. I'm centering on this item because this was quite possibly, the most unpalatable sandwich that I have ever had. Let me talk about the star of the show for this sandwich, the chicken. Yes people there is such a thing as overcooking a piece of breaded chicken and it was here in full force. The chicken was almost chicken jerky. It was breaded to a dark, dark brown and so overcooked that myself and others in my group (I made others try it to get their opinion) had a really hard time chewing this. It was leather status. The avocado was fresh, the arugula was you know arugula. There was no pico de gallo in place. Some of our party complained about over cooked fries also. This sandwich was 19.50 and a complete waste. I did not give this rating any lower than a 3 star simply because I know that this place can produce good food, I've had it before. Maybe it was an off day, maybe it was a busy day but and I stress this point...someone knew what they were sending out from the kitchen and saw how bad it looked and they still sent it out. We were a party of six, so do the math because most of the sandwiches and burgers are right around the same price. It's not a cheap meal. This time, I was truly disappointed and you know it was Mother's Day and I'm thinking to myself I deserved a good meal. Didn't happy. Total bummer. read more

The food here is REALLY good. We had wings, a burger, fries and a few beers. I would HIGHLY recommend the burgers... something about the burger was REALLY DELICIOUS. The wings were fine- nothing I would get again. They have a full bar as well, and a good selection of local beers on tap. They also have some weird margarita drink that you also add another drink to that a lot of people were getting... not sure what it was? The staff was really nice, and the setting is adorable. The ONLY reason we are giving Dustys a 3 star is because we literally waited almost 45 minutes just to get our beers. It was insane. We were there for close to two hours for some burgers and beers.... that is just silly. It was not busy and so I am not sure what the heck happened... We plan to come back next time we are in the mood for burgers, and hopefully the wait wont be as long. read more

I'm confused on why this place has such a low rating? Our group had a great experience! We had a party of 7 and the inside was full so we chose picnic table outside, it was a warm sunny day and there was an umbrella to provide shade which was perfect. We were promptly greeted and had our drink orders taken. Shirley temples for the kids and boozy slushies for the adults. Woooo they were BOOZY! We started with wings which were crispy, juicy, and flavorful! Our table went through 4 baskets! The hot honey chicken sandwich was delicious! Crispy, juicy, and flavorful just like the wings. The onion rings were ON POINT. My daughter said her burger was "yummy, good but not the best burger I've ever had". French fries and tots seemed to be be a hit with everyone. The only thing I would really complain about is that they only had plant based nuggets for the kids menu, no actual chicken. We ordered them for our 5 year old anyway because we have been able to sneak them past him before but these ones were super burnt! They were not brown at all they were black. He wouldn't even attempt them which was disappointing. Other than that, good experience and great atmosphere. Make sure you order the ranch, so yummy! read more

Such a fun little place! It has a quirky and relaxing atmosphere. The food is delicious!

First thing when I walked up I saw it was in a cute renovated old style home with fairy lights. The inside was lit with warm lighting and pictures in old frames to continue with the homey vibes. The service was excellent; they gave us our menus and let us pick our seat as soon as we walked in. They took our orders and checked on us very frequently as well. I ordered Peach Me I'm Dreaming and they delivered it to me in a timely manner. The drink tasted so spectacular I had to order another one! For food I ordered the cheeseburger nachos with beyond meat. I'm a new vegetarian and I don't normally like how fake meat tastes but when I ate my food I never would've known that it wasn't real meat! I loved absolutely everything about this place and I'll be coming back very frequently!! read more
