The Longonisa burger and homemade chips is my favorite, and my kids love their tasty pansit. Everything tastes fresh and authentic. I've also taken many of my Caucasian business partners here and they also love their authentic Filipino food and ube cookies. I highly recommend this place for the value you get for the prices you pay.

Walk up to the counter and order, take a seat and they'll bring your food. So many choices that I know I'll have to come back for another couple of meals. I decided on eggplant torta which was a slice of eggplant, smashed flat and fried with a scrambled egg. absolutely delicious and came with a side of rice. My friend got a turkey sandwich that came with a super thick slice of turkey, lettuce, tomato and avocado as well as a huge pile of chips. Needless to say she took half home. I don't know a lot about Filipino food and will need to have some items explained but since i love to try new things I am absolutely going back and work my way through the menu

Rainbow Cafe has that old school diner feel that is harder to fake than people realize. Nothing…read morefancy, and honestly that is part of the whole appeal. You walk in, sit down, and the place seems to understand exactly what it is there to do. The food is good, the portions are solid, and it is the kind of spot where you can actually relax for a minute instead of feeling like the table is on a timer. It feels like somewhere your coffee might get refilled before you even realize it is low, which is a very specific comfort. I love a polished brunch place as much as the next person, but sometimes you just want breakfast that tastes like breakfast and not like a chef had a branding meeting about it. This hits that lane perfectly. The room has that familiar diner rhythm too, where there is a little movement, a little clatter, and somehow it all still feels calm. my mom would love this place, which may be the highest compliment I can give any breakfast spot in Auburn. Go when you want good comfort food and zero nonsense, especially for breakfast.

Looks like the local spot has changed management/ownership. Wouldn't really mind so much except…read morethey replaced their menu with breakfast only items and close at 2 pm because they've changed over a bunch of staff. Ordered steak and eggs which was described as chuck steak. They mean ground hamburger meat but when the waitress asked if that's what I meant, i responded by pointing at the menu item and saying "the steak?" $17 for a big hamburger patty, burned inedible hashbrowns, and burned toast. My mother asked not to include certain ingredients and they came out anyway too. Took a long time which I would expect for how I order it thinking it was a steak but pretty egregious for a hamburger patty. They've recently painted but took down all their personal effects so it looks very clinical and awkward. Does not help they are having a severe small fly infestation so not comfortable ambiance to sit in for chatting, like their lunch lulls used to be good for. Sounds like they're asking for some leniency in transition but they might as well close. I won't be coming back until I hear from someone else it's worth my time an

I ordered the Philly cheesesteak and an iced tea, the Philly cheesesteak came out piping hot and steaming, the flavors of the sandwich was great and the peppers and onions were cooked to perfection and the side thing of pickles made a great contrast for the sandwich that really put it all together, the iced tea was a tad bit bitter but nothing the sugar packets at the table couldn't fix. Overall 5/5 would come again to try more dishes and the breakfast.

We were greeted by a nice young man who was going to take us up some stairs, my husband uses a walker and the server noticed it immediately and had him take us to a different booth which I appreciated. they have a very extensive menu for breakfast lots of choices. My husband got the farmers breakfast and substituted the biscuits and gravy for the pancakes. He said the gravy was very good and ate most of that leaving the biscuits which he said were too many. I had a Yukon omelette which was absolutely huge and I brought plenty home to have later. It was pretty good but that was the extent of being good. The hash browns were not only over done so they were far to crispy, but so much salt I couldn't eat them. the server brought my toast which was burned and I had to ask for a new piece, she should never have even brought that to the table. Service was fine, they kept our beverage glasses full but the food was just so so. Not sure its worth at trip back.

One of my favorite places for a Turkish Breakfast in South King County. I have taken a several of…read moremy friends there and they all liked it as well. The place gets busy with customers and other Turkish families, which is a good sign. You order up at the counter when you walk in, then you pay and they give you a number to take to your table. They will then bring over the food to your table. Don't expect for personalized service/hospitality from the staff. It's cashier style and then drop off food, they they buss the table. Favorite to order are: Menemen, Beef Manti, Chicken Bowl, Avocado Toast, (kids love the mini pancakes), Pide Flatbreads Parking: Parking lot (Store is in a building of apartments/condos)

It's always nice to try something new with food. While visiting Tacoma, I was taken to this Turkish…read morerestaurant which my sister and her husband enjoy a lot. I was always thought all mediterranean restaurants are the same, but this one is a little different for me. Everything has yogurt in it and I'm not too crazy about sour yogurt. The restaurant is in a little shopping center, there are actually quite a few places to park. The restaurant is very nice, clean and airy. It's a self order, and they bring the food to your table. The prices are around $20 a dish. My sister ordered all the dishes, pizza, chicken, wontons, they all looked delicious but the tastes are so different for me. The wontons are not as tasty as Chinese wontons and they're not soft. The chicken is tasty but not very flavorful. The yogurt is very sour and rich. I had some slices of pizza, but nothing to rave about. Anyhow, at least I know what Turkish food is like. This one is supposed to be the best one in Tacoma and my sister family love it. Like they say, it's not my cup of tea.

We ordered the chicken fried steak, and sausage, eggs, and toast, and let me tell you, those pancakes were the best! They were golden and crispy on the outside and moist on the inside. Our server was incredibly friendly and attentive, always smiling and making sure we had everything we needed. The service was a bit slow, but I think it's because there's only one cook and two other staff members who help wait on tables. Despite the wait, the food was plentiful and delicious. I'll definitely be returning, especially for those pancakes!

I had to open up this app and look at the photo of the sign to figure out where it was in the plaza. I do plan on going back to this place more often. I also do like that. They have real early hours where they open up at seven in the morning. I think I might even go back and try lunch there one of these days soon because their sandwich menu looked pretty decent.

There is a broad range of menu items, and the portion sizes are very generous and filling. We almost always have something to bring home with us. I am obsessed with their bacon, so will order it as a side to bring home. The food is very tasty, having ordered the same thing on several occasions, it's always consistent. Our servers have always been attentive, though I notice when it's busy, they are definitely running around a lot. It helps that the usually have someone dedicated to bringing the drink orders at the start of the service. I like the family vibe in here as well, the weekends are always full, making it a great overall experience. There's plenty parking around, and though it's busy I feel it's worth the wait.

It's clear why this place is so popular. The atmosphere was welcoming, the restaurant was very clean, and everything ran smoothly even during a busy rush. This is a family-owned restaurant, and our server/owner, Raman Aurora, truly made the experience special her mom also checked on us. She was incredibly kind, professional, and attentive, especially considering how busy the place was. She checked on us multiple times to make sure we had everything we needed and never made us feel rushed or forgotten. The level of hospitality was exceptional. We ordered the salmon omelette with house potatoes, along with pancakes from the kids' menu. The food arrived hot and fresh, and the portion sizes were huge, especially the salmon omelette. The amount of salmon in the omelette was very generous and impressive for such a reasonable price. You can tell they don't cut corners with quality or quantity. The house potatoes were perfectly cooked, and the pancakes were fluffy and delicious. One highlight was the homemade hot salsa, which was absolutely amazing fresh, flavorful, and just the right amount of heat. It paired perfectly with the omelette and really elevated the meal. They were also incredibly accommodating, especially since I had our 2 1/2-year-old nephew with me. They kindly gave us the seating I requested, which made our visit much more comfortable. They also gave him some goodies. The menu is excellent, with great variety, and the salmon omelette was highly recommended now I know why. Even though the restaurant was full and they were likely short-staffed, the service was efficient, organized, and friendly throughout our visit. It's rare to find a place that delivers great food, generous portions, fair prices, and outstanding service all at once. We were extremely impressed and will absolutely be back. Highly recommend Maggie on Meeker Breakfast to anyone looking for an amazing breakfast spot in Kent, Washington!

The owner is delightful and engages you in conversation as she packs the food . The restaurant is showing its age, but remains one of the remaining soul food restaurants in South King County in Washington. I had the fried catfish, chicken, and fries. The thing about soul food is that it all about the seasonings. Now, I prefer the cornmeal/flour coating over batter; the owner does this well. The catfish was well seasoned and the fish was tender. This is the fine line between frying it until it's as dry as the desert or perfection as was done here. The same was for the chicken wings. Light coating, crunchy, and seasoned well. Now her cornbread is good, but she should throw her fires in the trash. They are overcooked and just a let down to an otherwise nice lunch experience. Since she only does take out or cater, the place looks more like a place of storage than a restaurant. It is quiet with mini refrigerators displaying desserts and soda. Surprisingly, the owner does not serve shrimp. A bit of a surprise and I would quickly get them for lunch if they were prepared as well as the catfish. I would rate higher, and keep in mind the the prices are higher than you would expect but happy to pay again if she smoothes out some of the edges of her space and sides that accompany such wonderful catfish and chicken.
