Breakfast time on a Monday; Greeted and seated quickly. Server was prompt to take our orders. They were polite and friendly. A server that seemed to enjoy their job!! The food came out hot and fresh! Real food!!! We all agreed that our various meals were good and the portions were generous but not overwhelming. For me, one standout was the sausage gravy I got as a side for my potatoes!!! Guys, this gravy was the real deal!!' My southern granny taught me how to make gravy so I KNOW good gravy and this amazing! The restaurant was clean, decor was your basic country/train decor which was fine. Soft country music at the perfect volume: ie we could hear it and still hear our conversations. All in all, a great experience that we will come back for. read more

Easily one of the best restaurants in all of Puyallup (and the state of WA!). If you're looking for hearty comfort food then this is the place to be. We stopped in on a Saturday afternoon for a late breakfast and had a fantastic meal. Eggs, breakfast potatoes, sourdough toast, and to top it off-lemon blueberry French toast. Seriously, YUM! Prices are affordable as well and our wait to be seated wasn't long at all. We will definitely be back in the future! Maybe next time for dinner! read more

Stopped by here on a Friday morning. I shared breakfast with a fiend. With had the pig and peanut butter French toast.I didn't have much hope for the meal. However. It was delicious. The sweet from the peanut butter and the maple syrup mixed with the salty from the bacon and crunch of the bacon was delicious. I'd come back just for this. My other friend got their chicken and waffles and he said it was equally delicious. read more

Our service was wonderful! The food was alright. It took a long time to get our meals. My pancakes came out lukewarm but my Fiancé's meal was hot. Very casual environment with a country feel. Our server definitely saved the experience. Not sure I'll make the trip back for breakfast but I'll try any place twice. We all have off days. read more

The food was good. The service could be better. Our server barely check up on us, to refill coffee or see if we needed anything. By the time she checked on us, we no longer wanted jam for our toast. Ambiance was loud. All you can hear was people talking. I had the blueberry lemon French toast and my husband had a Denver omelette. The blueberry lemon French toast smelled really yummy, but in my opinion too sweet for me. I could only eat 1. Bacon was really good and hash browns was ok. My hubby said his omelette was good, but they could have used one more egg. Coffee was decent and cup of fruit had more grapes then melon. It also seemed like they cut the melons real small to make it look a lot. I do plan going again and trying out some other stuff. read more

First time trying TK at any of the 4 locations. Celebrating their 13th birthday they are offering "retro" specials so when going nearby we stopped in for the breakfast special. First impression the place inside felt cold, lacking any ambiance or vibe. I expected a warm cozy diner with possibly the train theme. There is a train in a portion of the dining area up below the ceiling. I noticed a booth had ripped up seat cushion, tacky. Ok let's get to the food & service. We appreciate good coffee, since most places charge $3-4, I've learned to take a sip of my hubby's before ordering my own. I did that here and glad I did, not good. Why are breakfast houses not using quality coffee yet charging like it is?? We both ordered the $5 special, we've cut back on our intake so we knew it should be fine. The server took a while to get our waters and one coffee but after that she was good on service although forgot my addition of gravy and hubby asking for A-1, but she was pleasant and made sure our hash browns were extra crisp! Didn't take too long to get our meals, as the place was picking up. Always appreciate hot food, eggs cooked perfectly, the extra crisp hash, decent sausage/bacon, and the toast was toast. Overall obviously a great value for this special offer. We'd go back actually at the regular $7 price. Like to try some other meal specials as well. Was a bit surprised at the cost of the mimosas and Bloody Mary $8-10. For such a casual place I expected the mimosas to be $5-6 and BM maybe $6-8 following suit with other places in this category. Also some interior design help much needed to spruce things up. Even all the big windows looked streaky blurry. Chef did good job though, thanks for the special deals. read more

Packed parking, dirty. Long wait once seated. Servers don't really care about their customers. Server offered refill on water and never got it. Felt not welcome, service severely lacking for our table if 3. Server would go to other tables and check on them refill their drinks but passed us by. It's noon now the restaurant is not that busy. Gets worse every time I return. Pretty soon I'll get the clue and stop coming. read more

This place was packed because of power outages in the area, yet on a day where the staff could be understandably frustrated, everyone working in there had a great attitude. The food was delicious. The place was clean. Hailie D, our waitress, was fabulous and always had a smile on her face. She was busy enough that I would not have been upset if she forgot a thing or two, it she was on her game. A+ Tim's Kitchen! A+ Hailie D. read more

Our food was great, the only hiccup was service for today. All though energy was great from all team members, our server messed up our drinks then our food. But mistakes happen, I get it. She did share that it was her end of her shift, I could only imagine she was excited to get off and her listening wasn't to keen. Ambiance was clean, and friendly. read more

We stopped here on a chance after being dissatisfied or disappointed at other breakfast places. We try to avoid the commercial places, so Ihop, don't get upset. If you have read some of my past reviews, you know, I dislike poor customer service, slow service, and chefs that put their fingers in the food and then wipe their hands on their pants. Tim's was excellent. We walked in and receded in just a few moments, even though it was still very busy. Nearly every seat was taken in the place, but our waitress still had time to come get us, coffee, grab our order, and then very shortly after the meal showed up. I'm not going to spend some tail about seeing angels and bright flashes of color. When I ate the food, it was hearty, it was plenty, and it was tasty. It's what you would expect for a good breakfast place, but the kind of place you find in small town. Everybody seemed to be having a great meal, it was a comfortable environment, five stars to this place every single time. read more

Good breakfast, service and 2 local sites. Old time restaurant atmosphere. The Orting site has a train set running above the crowd.

We go there every Saturday for breakfast. Kerrie and crew always provides us with excellent service. Great food with good portions. I highly recommend Tim's on South Hill. read more

We were at this location 6/28/24. We have been to the Orting location and found it a great spot. Good food and service. We had passed this location many times and we just didn't stop. We did yesterday evening for dinner. BIG, BIG, BIG, MISTAKE. Did I mention BIG MISTAKE? We arrived 5:45/6pm, it was not overly crowded and were seated immediately. We were greeted by a lady who immediately announced her name and then quickly announced "I AM IN TRAINING!". Kinda odd as though she were already prepping us for poor service. We gave our drink order and another server came over and the 1st server said in a loud voice "THIS IS MY TRAINER". They left and we waited and waited and waited. Did I mention we waited, for their return. Once the "In Training" server came back we ordered. I get she was "In Training" but to ask the guest to see the menu so she could write the order was a bit awkward and odd in my opinion. She finished and then took the other tables order. Now comes the next "Not so fun parts". It took almost what was a good 30-40min to get our food. And the table who placed their order after us got theirs first. Then we were missing a biscuit. That came 5min later. That hockey puck was burnt and hard. My Club sandwich was dry and watered down. Yes it can't be both. But it can if the toast was over done and the lettuce was dripping in water. Funny at this point no follow up visit no sir's and madam's not one return. Finally the server returned and we showed the biscuit. They took it back and another 5min passed before we got the replacement. This was a horrible experience and we will not be back sorry. We will go to Orting. read more

Came from Redmond just for the meatloaf...it's amazing and should be available daily. Perfect with mashed potatoes/gravy and corn. Never had a bad meal or anything less than amazing service. Thanks again for a delicious dinner. read more

We came for lunch yesterday - and experienced not only great food but the service was rare and OUTSTANDING!! Our server - Kerrie - paid attention to details and served our 87 year old aunt with such kindness. Kerrie chimed into our conversation as though we've know her for years! She was so helpful and kind...we felt like we gained a family member! read more

Friendly and fast service. The food was good and the restaurant was clean. We went for breakfast food and coffee. Our server was amazing and really sweet. We will be back! read more

Sweet young Colin was delightful when we stopped in for an early dinner. The heat in the restaurant was on the fritz or rather not cooperating and we were freezing our tails off along with all of the staff lol. Nevertheless, Colin kept it light and funny, while providing great service. I ordered the reuben and my wife ordered the chicken strips with mashed potatoes. We like this restaurant because they are rather consistent in the quality of their food and how it's made, plus their biscuits are great. read more

Hit or miss at this one. When there's great it's amazing and when there's bad it's bad. I still love the Orting one better.

Nice spot for a quick gut bomb. Prices a little high, food a little small portion wise. Loooooong wait for a table for 1 when for 10-15 minutes there were tables sitting empty that just hadn't been bussed yet. Food was good, a little underdone, service was good. Just lack of staff really affected it. Oh, and the bathroom was in horrid condition read more

Just had a great meal with amazing service from Kaitlyn! We will definitely be coming back.

Slow service, mediocre food and loud environment. Menu is on par with Dennys and a little overpriced.

Hometown vibes. Ambiance is 10/10. Food is decent and consistent. Greasy. Expensive as is everything today. The staff really kill my vibe here. Consistently grumpy & lack excitement for the job or customer service. I will return because I continue to have hope, as it has so much potential! read more

So good here we've been back 3x's since our first visit... everything is Good here and the waitress in all of Puyallup...

Classic small dinner. Where the orange juice taste like Minute Maid but they say it's freshly squeezed. The service was great. Attentive, coffee was serviced faster than that train did its rounds. And let me tell you that train did hella rounds. The chicken fried chicken as they have it on the menu, was good. The breading was on point. The chicken was juicy, the gravy needed some loving tho. Slightly tasted like powder gravy. Most definitely will try something different if I do come back. Maybe the chicken fried pork read more

First time in Washington and my daughter decided to take me to a place she'd eaten at once, said it was good. Well not today. We waited several minutes before anyone acknowledged our presence once seated. We placed our order and it was 40 mins later still no food. We were told it'll be another 4 mins. We left and will not return. read more

I love their food. However; I ordered the meat lovers stacker.... There was no bacon... I'm sorry, but the whole reason I ordered this dish was for the bacon bits and eggs over easy. My eggs were too hard to dip my bread in. The bread was delicious and homemade. But the no bacon bits and I ordered over easy; not over hard eggs. When I tried to review this in Grubhub, I simply was directed to how to you like Grubhub. Instead of how did you enjoy your food from toms kitchen. 7 out of 10 Would only recommend to dine in so you can get what you paid for. His tots were hu This is my hoagie I ate instead of what I ordered. WhiteMonte Cristo Sandwich at my home made by me. Thanks Tim's kitchen. You guys used to be my go to for most things lunch related! read more

Man I wish we had time to dine in for this delicious meal and savor every bite but we plan to go back soon. We ordered the fried chicken dinner with mashed potatoes, Mac n cheese and a biscuit, children's pancake breakfast and the NY steak and eggs. The fried chicken was so juicy and crunchy. The biscuit that came with this meal was pillowy soft on the inside and with the honey butter *chefs kiss*. The sides (mash and Mac n cheese) we didn't care for as much but the chicken and biscuit alone were scrumptious. The NY steak was cooked to perfection. It had a nice char but the meat was tender. The hashbrowns were just how I like it. A light crisp on the outside but soft on the inside. My daughter loved her Mickey Mouse shaped pancake. The interior has these cool antique trains on a track that travels overhead. There is a large dining room with tables in the middle and booths on either side as well as tables up on a higher platform dining area which gives more privacy. Our server was super sweet. She was a young blonde woman and when I told her we needed to leave right away due to a family emergency so we needed all of our meals to-go she didn't mind at all and was very kind throughout the process. There is a decent amount of parking out front. They are located on a busy road (Meridian) so don't miss your turn into the restaurant otherwise you'll have to find a safe place to turn around and fight against traffic to turn into the complex. read more

Wait wasn't that bad on a Saturday morning. Our waitress was really nice and the tea selection was great. We placed our order and was really excited and starving. After about 20 min we all realized we hadn't received our food. The waitress said it was coming out soon. Another 15 min goes by and I flag her down to ask about the food and she said the chef was on vacation so the new chef was a bit slow. Another 10 min goes by and we decided to jet. We ended up at a grocery store for snacks. read more

Yes, Tim's has greasy spoon options, and they're yummy and fattening. AND they have some healthier, lighter, non belly-busting meals as well. The California Omelet was perfectly prepared, the potatoes were crispy on the outside and perfect on the inside. The toast was good. too. Everything was at the perfect temperature. Servers are attentive and skilled. I've lived near the Orting location for a while, and I've eaten there many times. But this was my 1st time at the Puyallup location. Great diner option on Meridian! read more

Ordered a meal for my disabled son this evening and have a hard enough time feeding him as it is so I always have to order something soft for him to eat. So fish and chips was it with a side of tator tots. Everything was so overcooked that I didn't even feed him any tator tots and the fish was so overcooked it was dark. So his dinner was pretty well shot! I will not order from this restaurant again since it cost me over 50 dollars of hard earned money. Very disappointed customer. Cheryl Rockafield read more

Yesterday, I ordered over the telephone a pick-up order. I ordered a Falcon (scrambled eggs and bacon; scrambled eggs and hash browns with an English muffin that included jams and jellies. When I got home with my order after I picked it up - nothing was right. Two of the eggs were fried; and, the other two were poached. Instead of one whole hash brown patty, there was only half of a hash brown patty. Someone had also thrown together jams and jellies in a separate container. The whole order was wrong. This happened on 05/13/2025 around noon. Therefore, I will not be coming back; and, Tim's Kitchen owes me a correct order. read more

Supporting local is important to me as a buyer! It's also important to the wonders of Tim's Kitchen! Not only is their food terrific, but their staff goes out of their way to make you feel welcomed! They have also supported plenty of local causes! The peanut butter bacon hotdog is probably my guilty pleasure favorite! It's warm, crispy and the key you put your desired amount of PB on! The perfect salty/sweet treat! The breakfast is a hit also! The bacon- get that- it's thick, and cooked perfectly! read more
