    2-piece COD Fish & Chips (4.5/5)
    Thalya C.

    Visiting a friend in Tacoma and we went here. It's all outdoors and I wasn't sure if I'd like any of the Philly's based on other reviews but I feel you can't go wrong with fish and chips! Service was not good for it being a pick up window -- I was surprised to say the least. Being put on hold while the person taking my order was visibly on their phone is actually crazy! I enjoy my food served hot and ready and this was perfect! The fish had smoke coming out of it when I split it open and it wasn't all batter so that was good! Overall good food, bad service, but quick and easy!

    It is in a wonderful location. However, customer service is not the best. I came here at my husband 's request to pick up a lunch special. The 9.95 special before 1pm is a great motivator to run and get lunch. But they lose a couple of stars for just the service. I do not get it but maybe food service is high pressure. I recommend being a least a bit more cordial and kind of focus a little more on greeting customers and making sure the orders are correct. I ordered a lemon lime drink and Hi C for my son. We got our lemon lime drink but some mystery dark soda. Well the fries is a generous amount and the sandwich is a good amount of meat. Cheese is not too overwhelming so that is good. For good food and location service needs to improve. They have great potential and I honestly want them to stay around here. So I say to the lady at the window to just relax and smile a little bit more. And we love your sandwiches a lot. Thanks.

    This isn't even a po boy.

    Everything. This is absolutely ridiculous. This sandwich is falling apart. There's no tarter. The fish isnNON EXISTENT. and this cost 17$?!! I will never eat here again. I'd give it zero stars if I could.

    Cajun fries (after I ate some already)

    Nice little cheesesteak shack. Had the hot pastrami with sauerkraut and provalone with Cajun fries. Very good amount of meat. Kraut not too aggressive. Definitely a good sandwich if you are in the mood. But the Cajun fried were really good. The crisp on them was amazing and the oil didn't taste old. Seasoning was really flavorful and had a decent amount of spice to them. The service was very friendly and prompt. Fountain sodas available. Food came out in a reasonable amount of time, so you know it's made to order. I would totally eat here again next time I'm in town.

    The food was amazing! The fries were fresh, you could tell that they were made to order. The cheese steak was very yummy, it was cheese, and I loved the meat to onion ratio. Service was great. I would only recommend that they wrap the sandwiches a little cleaner. There was cheese all over the outside of the paper and it got everywhere and we didn't get any napkins. Overall, I cannot wait to come back to Go Philly!

    Once again another wonderful cheesesteak from Go Philly! I love this place. The staff here is friendly. Not yo mention they keep the place up.

    Mushroom cheesesteak
    Chris G.

    A pretty solid cheesesteak if not a bit on the smaller side. The place is small and only has exterior seating. And it gets busy during meal times. I highly recommend ordering ahead. It's convenient and also lets you know an ETA and alerts you when your order is ready. The parking lot is also very small. All-in-all it seems to be the best cheesesteak in Tacoma, so we will be returning.

    Gross sloppy greasy sandwich supposed to be chicken peppers and provolone
    Melissa T.

    What a disappointment. I ordered a chicken pepper steak with provolone cheese and mayo. And what I got was a complete disaster. Sure there's chicken cheese and peppers in there not too many peppers. But the amount of mayo in here dominates the sandwich. The bread immediately fell apart mushy from the second I took it out out of the wrapper and most of the rapper stuck to the sandwich. I opened it up as soon as I left the place and there was no time in between when I received the text message that my order was ready and me picking it up. I was excited to get my birthday reward cheesesteak and it was the first thing I haven't cooked for myself in a long time. And this only proves why I don't go out and spend money at locations because the food is unreliable. This is inedible because there is wrapper stuck to the sandwich and the bread is disgusting. I would have to take it all apart to salvage what isn't doused in mayo to put it on an English muffin because that's all I have. I didn't go to the store to do my grocery shopping I went out to buy myself a cheesesteak!! I tipped them, for the record. I even asked for light ice half of my container is ice. Imagine if I hadn't asked for light ice! Overall 100% disappointed and would not recommend. What happened?!?!! This place used to be great.

    Crunchy garlic fries
    Eilene C.

    Conveniently located on Tacoma Ave S near downtown Tacoma, their menu has everything for everyone in the family. With outdoor seating only, we took our food home to eat. It was still nice and warm when we got home. We loved their original and deluxe cheesesteak! We also surprisingly loved their buffalo saucy cheesesteak and will be ordering that again next time! Garlic fries were delicious and their jumbo wings were nice and crunchy. Cashier was friendly and patient while we placed a large order.

    Kind of disappointed with how long I waited and how my food turned out. I ordered the Swiss mushroom burger with fries. 45min wait finally got it. Burger bun was so soggy and hard to enjoy with everything falling apart. It was also super salty I could barely eat it without feeling it in my throat. Not worth coming back, plus the parking space is horrible. If the lot is full there's no way you could order and wait until a spot is available. All the hype for a bad experience

We stumbled upon Kimchi Box, and what an amazing find it turned out to be! From the moment we walked in, we were impressed by how spotless and inviting the place was. The lady behind the counter greeted us with a warm smile and genuine friendliness. She patiently answered all our questions about the menu and never once made us feel rushed, even as we took our time deciding. Truly some of the best customer service I've experienced! Once we sat down, the food started arriving, and it looked (and smelled) incredible. We started with the gyoza, which was perfectly crispy and cooked to perfection. Next came the sweet chili chicken wings--seasoned just right, with the perfect kick of spice. I ordered the honey garlic popcorn chicken, which came with beautiful purple Korean rice, a fresh side salad, and a tangy kimchi salad. Every bite was delicious--I didn't leave a single crumb on my plate! My friend raved about her bulgogi taco, and together we demolished the gyoza and wings. The vibe inside is cozy and welcoming, a big contrast to its humble exterior in the plaza. If you're in Tacoma and craving something delicious, Kimchi Box is a must-try. I can't wait to come back and explore more of their menu!

Order at the counter or order online like I did and pick up. 4 instead of 5 stars because the kimchi box no longer has jap chae and all the japchae options are now more expensive, and jap chae was unavailable for online ordering on clover ("noodle box"). Kid friendly - if your kid likes meat and rice, or chicken wings. Food is always good with quick friendly service. I liked it a little better with the original menu (see above) but it's still probably my go to spot since it's closer than driving to South Tacoma Way for Korean food.

The restaurant was already busy right when they opened, so I definitely recommend making reservations in advance. Even with how packed it was, the service was warm, attentive, and everything came out beautifully paced. The food was incredible across the board. The chicken schnitzel is always my go-to and my mom completely understood the hype; crispy, flavorful, and perfectly balanced with the slaw and rice. The scallops were packed with flavor and cooked perfectly, and the burrata bread pudding appetizer was such a standout that the whole table was talking about it. We also tried the tapioca dessert (not pictured) and I already know I'll be ordering it again next time. One of those places that manages to feel lively and trendy while still being comfortable and welcoming. Great food, great atmosphere, and consistently one of my favorite dinner spots in the city.

Sam our server made sure we had everything to enjoy our experience at their establishment. Crafted cocktails a Hugo Spritz & a paperplane were perfectly mixed. Finally for dinner we both had a chicken sandwich plus crispy fries to complete a memorable experience! Yes we will def be back! Thanks for ALWAYS making our dining experience a great one!
