Dang I almost never review the same place twice. And if I do, it's probably to lower the rating, not increase it. I never would've come here again by myself lol. But this place is waaaaayyyy better than before. Am I crazy? I almost wanted to give this five stars. According to my mom, they have a newer chef that's really good? I believe it. If my memory serves me correctly, is the business here also better than before? We came on a Tuesday, but the place was fairly packed. Rice - I hate it when American-Asian places give you tiny amount of rice on a plate. This is a generous amount in a bowl. This is correct, and I love it. They did still give us these awkward rectangular plates for all the Americans that are gonna transfer stuff to it, but I'm not using that so I tossed mine to the side. Lol. The texture is also immaculate. Bok choy - This is such a simple vegetable to cook yet so many places screw it up. This is perfectly cooked. My only complaint is they should've separated the individual leaves more. Coconut shrimp - Great texture and savoriness and tastes like a heart attack, like it should. Dragon roll - Pretty good. It came with a liberal amount of wasabi and pickled ginger, which I also like. Sweet and sour pork ribs - I feel like this is less common because the type of person that would order sweet and sour something would not want to deal with bones. This was tasty, although I would've put more spices on it of course. Blackberry margarita was also good. read more

My husband and I go to the Tulalip Casino once every few months, and we try to visit all the restaurants in a rotation. We went to Journeys East when it first opened, and we liked it a lot. It didn't blow our minds at the time, but it was good and worth going back to for sure. Tonight, we went back again, and holy cow, I can't say enough about the quality and the value and how much they've improved over the last year. Maria was our server and she was perfect in her service and her recommendations. Friendly, attentive, and just all around a great server. First, we tried the Potstickers (per Maria's suggestion) which came with six large doughy pillows filled with pork goodness and served with a soy and scallion sauce. Delectable. We then had the Red Dragon roll, which was spicy and savory with all the right textures and flavors. SO good. Shrimp, avocado, spicy tuna, tempura, yum. Finally, we had the Mongolian Beef, which while a bit salty (the soy), was made with delicious tender cuts of beef and large fresh spring onions and was some of the best I've had. AND, the Honey Walnut Prawns which were HANDS DOWN the best I've ever had period. Sweet, but not overly so, with ample sauce but not swimming in it, perfectly cooked and still crisp battered prawns, of perfect size, and served hot out of the pan. Ridiculously amazing! SO good. I'm so glad we gave Journeys East another go around. Tulalip has always had good restaurants, but over the last two years, they have really outdone themselves. Highly, highly recommend this spot in particular, even if it takes a bit of driving to get there. 100% worth imt. 5 star service and cuisine. Please note that they do not take reservations on weekends, but on this Saturday night, we were seated within 30 minutes which is exactly what we were quoted. read more

After playing at the casino with some friends, we took a quick lunch break at Journey's East. While looking over the menu, my wife had a Mac & Jack for $7 and I had a bottle of Asahi beer for $7. For starters we shared the Coconut Firecracker Shrimp (qty 6) for $14 and the Chicken Karaage for $13: Japanese fried chicken drizzled with spicy mayo; served with lemon. My girlfriend ordered the Shrimp Pho for $17: Beef broth, rice noodles, yellow onion, green onion and cilantro; served with bean sprouts, Thai basil, jalapeño, lime, sriracha and hoisin sauce. Her husband ordered the Rainbow Roll for $18: Imitation crab salad, avocado, cucumber, sushi rice and nori topped with avocado, yellowfin tuna and salmon. My wife and I shared the Ninja Roll for $23: Salmon, avocado, cucumber, tuna, spicy mayo, unagi, sushi rice and nori, topped with unagi sauce and tobiko. Service was quick and efficient. The food was decent and fairly priced. I will dine at Journey's East again when at the casino; however, I wouldn't choose Journey's East if not specifically at the casino. read more

I've been wanting to try this place for years. We decided to come here for my birthday dinner. Everything tasted great! We ordered 5 dishes for 4 of us to share. We just had a little extra to take home after. They were so nice when they brought over an ice cream dessert for us to share for my bday on the house. Be warned it can get a little noisy in there when its packed. read more

Meeting a friend for dinner, she recommended dining at Journeys East inside the Tulalip Casino in Marysville. We had no reservation, and were told it would a 30 min wait. Although we didnt wait that long, It's best to have a reservation. Their menu had a variety of Asian Cuisines; we had Sui Mai and Tempura Shrimp for starters; the. Ordered Pad Thai, Journey's East Fried Rice, Green Curry Chicken, Honey Walnut Shrimp, Sweet & Sour Fries Pork Ribs. Food came fast and hit the spot! It was my birthday month and was surprised with a complimentary sundae! We also ordered an extra Creme Brulee to share. They were already decked for the holidays which gave a magical ambiance. Great Selection, reasonably priced for a Casino Restaurant. Highly recommend! read more

Love ordering family style here! Started with Vietnamese Spring Rolls with shrimp and peanut dipping sauce, came with 4pcs. Also ordered a California Roll for the sushi-lite kids at the table. Fried rice combo style is a must! Flavors are clean and lite, ready for you to add shoyu to your liking. Pad thai with chicken also had tofu in it which was a nice surprise. Beef broccoli with the choice of Chinese style or regular broccoli- we went the Chinese route of course and didnt disappoint. Ginger chicken (dark meat only) was delicious, loved how the ginger flavor was just right and not overbearing or undetectable. Oh and my favorite, a side of bok choy! Service was fast enough to stop in for a quick bite in between games, yet fully top notch to reserve for a special occassion - as we did for my birthday! Don't forget your players card for a discount on the bill! read more

My friend and I came here for dinner, it was far and away of the worst meals for the price that I have ever had in my 57 years of life. I can't think of a dining experience where I paid more for less. The total bill was $95 for a two bowls of miso soups, siu mai, a dish of udon and some dry chicken nuggets they call karaage; don't go here, you will thank me later. read more

For Asian fare, it's hard to beat Journeys. With that said the cost is on the high side for Asian food. But it's always excellent and service is fast and food delish. Best spot in the casino IMO for food. Big plus, they will modify any entree for you. Hard to find these days. read more

If you're spoiled with authentic Vietnamese food, this is not the place for you.

We originally walked up and were told it's a 3h wait, so they put our name down and our phone number and said they'll text when the table is ready and usually it's much less than the 3h wait. I'm not sure what the reason was, when we got seated 40min later, the restaurant was half empty the whole time we were there??? There was plenty of staff in front and behind the counter, so simply odd to say the least. I honestly liked it a whole lot more than expected, we had the Pad Thai and the Bo luc lac. The pad Thai was nothing to write home about, but still OK for casino food. The beef dish though was really good, would totally order that again. Not bad at all, now they just need to be more realistic with their wait times and the place could be hopping. read more

We stayed the night here at Tulalip, so decided to grab lunch before we headed out. We got the Karaage, Spicy Wontons, and Journeys East Fried Rice, and everything was good, honestly, way better than I expected. The Karaage were big, juicy pieces. The wontons were big and meaty. And I liked the texture of the fried rice, just needed plenty of chili oil. Our waitress was very friendly. read more

Hit and miss lunch at Journeys East in Tulalip Casino. I appreciate the variety they have on the menu, I think anyone can find a dish they're in the mood for. The problem is nothing is done well. On the plus side the steamed halibut was nicely prepared with a generous serving and complemented by ginger. The tempura shrimp appetizer came hot and crisp, I think there were at least six good sized tails there. However, my spicy pork was way overcooked and rubbery, my wife's chicken pho was bland, and my father-in-law's wonton noodle soup was also tasteless. Service was fast and friendly though, so I will give them marks for that. But the food needs so much help that I doubt I'll be back. read more

This was one of the several eateries inside the casino. It was my first time eating here as my friend had been here before. Food: 3/5 - We shared the fried rice and Pad Thai noodles. I rated the fried rice with chicken 4/5 as it was a decent portion with lots of ingredients. The Pad Thai shrimp was barely a 3/5. There was a weird vinegar taste in the noodles. It was the first time I had red cabbage served with Pad Thai noodles. The portion was smaller. It's great that they have a menu at the front entrance. Service: 3/5 - average and friendly server Ambiance: 4/5 - nice & clean interior. Parking: 4/5 - free parking in the parking lot Wheelchair: 5/5 - accessible for wheelchairs and walkers read more

One of the many restaurants at Tulalip Casino. I spent 4 nights at the Resort and many meals there. Very convenient especially after very long days. Journeys East is Asia, but not a specific cuisine. Some Viet items like Pho, some Thai items like curry and also Chinese items. I ordered the green curry with chicken (Thai) and a side wonton soup. Portions were very generous and prices reasonable. The Wonton soup was a bit too salty and the wontons were more like dumplings. Definitely a miss. Thai Green Curry had just the right amount of heat, chicken a bit chewy but still enjoyed the meal. read more

We were greeted and the told the wait would be 45 min. Twenty five minutes later our table was ready. The ambience was inviting and intimate, very clean with a contemporary feel.

We've been here many times, and it's definitely one of the best restaurants at the Tulalip. The Mongolian beef is the best I've ever had, and the walnut honey shrimp is amazing too. The sushi rolls are fresh and delicious. The food is always great and comes out pretty quickly. The downside is that there's often a 2-hour wait, so it's a good idea to check in early. read more

We went back to Journey East Restaurant located in the Tulip Casino. We ordered some more food. They had a new item on their menu Sweet Spicy Krispy Beef. I recommend that dish . It is so good.

This establishment is terrible and should be avoided at all costs. I ordered nigiri to go at approximately 3pm today 11/23/25. They gave me a buzzer to return when the order would be ready. The cashier said it would take 30-45 min. It never went off so at approximately 4pm I went to the counter to inquire about the order. The cashier took the buzzer from me and said she would go check. A supervisor came out and said since it's been an hour, they will not give the order and not refund my money. Theft and terrible service. Go here at your own risk. read more

Sigh. We dined here a few years ago, and had a positive memory of it. We returned yesterday, very excited to eat. The host checked us in, gave us an appropriate wait time, customer service was good! A whole star here for the customer service. However - the food. We ordered the dumplings to start, which were legit inedible. I spit mine out, my bf unfortunately swallowed his & immediately sent the dish back. Our food smelled like the floor of a fish market that hadn't been properly cleaned. I have Pepto on standby today *just in case*. I got the Ginger chicken, which was covered in mushrooms - the menu doesn't mention that. The meat was rubbery. The ambiance was more of a food court than our prior experience. Lights were McDonald's bright, no music, and gosh - The food was terrible. We will never eat here again read more

My family was refused service simply because the 5 of us in our party were not simultaneously standing in front of the hostess when we requested seating for 5. We were told to just stand in front of the restaurant until all 5 people were physically present. The fifth person in our group was in the bathroom & the restaurant was empty of patrons. They refused to seat us. What restaurant would tell senior folks they cannot sit down an order drinks & such while the fifth person was not standing right there in front of them? Terrible Terrible customer relations. We left & ate elsewhere. read more

I have been dining at this restaurant since it opened. Before COVID I dined here at least once a week. Several of the servers are familiar with my order and have always provided excellent service. However, after negative experiences on my last two visits I don't plan on coming back. On my previous visit the expeditor, Loralei, was in a rush. She kept trying to bring dishes to our table that we did not order. When she finally did bring the dish we were waiting for she slammed it down on the table. Hard enough that I was afraid the momentum would take it off of the table. We spoke to the manager, Shannon, she apologized and said she would speak to Loralei. She did admit to setting dishes down roughly. We were assured she would receive more training and that she was a good worker that was simply trying too hard to be quick. As our previous experiences had always been positive we felt the matter was resolved. This evening was about a month after the first incident. I came in with my husband and a friend. We placed our food and drink order with the server and everything seemed fine. Loralei was the expediter again. At Journey's the food comes out as it is made. Consequently, someone always ends up waiting for their food. We are used to this system. Loralei brought my dish. I said it was mine and she set it front of my friend. She corrected herself, but slammed the bowl of pho down. At that point I thought she may have had an issue with me because I had made a complaint about her. I tried to not think anything of it, but then a few other incidents made me think it was intentional. My friend also ordered pho. I saw a bowl of soup in the window. I did not assume it was ours until I observed Loralei run other dishes that came out afterward. Our server then saw the soup in the window and brought it over. At this time we still had not received our appetizer and my husband was still waiting for fried rice. I let the server know there was an issue and he said he would look into it. I observed three orders of fried rice go out before my husband received his. I know one of those tables was sat after ours. At this point I asked to speak to a manager. Before we spoke to the manager Loralei brought my husband's rice out. She said "Here is a serving spoon if you want to share". As she said this she brazenly rolled her eyes. When, Shannon, the manager came to the table (With an unknown man at her side. Did she find me threatening?) I explained that we had a negative experience with Loralei the last time we had dinner. As I was explaining this Loralei delivered our appetizer. I glanced in her direction and probably had an unpleasant expression on my face. Shannon said "Direct that towards me not her". I can appreciate a manager that stands up for their staff, but not when a staff member is blatantly rude. I explained to Shannon that I cannot control my expressions when someone is being openly disrespectful. She said" Well, two wrongs don't make a right". After that I felt the conversation was going nowhere. I asked for the Food and Beverage managers contact information and both their names. Shannon said she was the manager of the restaurant. I again requested her managers information. She wrote the information on a card. According to LinkedIn she gave me the assistant managers name. I lost my appetite and asked Shannon to take my plate and remove it from the bill. Which she did. It took sometime to pay our bill. She pulled our server aside and they both looked in our direction. I assume she felt the need to warn the server about us. We had no issues with our server, Ryan, he did a good job and did his best to help resolve an awkward situation. I will be reaching out to the Food and Beverage manager. I don't plan on going back unless they hire a better expediter and a manager that can manage. read more

This is one is my go to restaurants when i'm in this area. I've never had a bad meal here or bad service. Lorelei yesterday was absolutely sweet! The Chicken Green Curry is amazing and one of my go to dishes is the Mongolian plate in either chicken or beef. I feel like your fine dining but the prices are moderate.
