Been patronizing this restaurant as I am in Orting on a weekly basis. Food is consistent day in and day out. I have yet to have a wait staff having a bad day. Service is quickly and friendly. I might add that the biscuits and gravy are pretty good. Love the small town vibe. read more

I hate having to change a previously positive review, but my experience today left me disappointed. I've always tried to support local businesses, and I've enjoyed coming here in the past. Today, however, my order wasn't ready when I arrived, and while I was waiting, I witnessed what appeared to be the chef loudly reprimanding a waitress about issues from the night before and his frustration. As someone who grew up in a family-owned restaurant, I understand how stressful and demanding the business can be, so I genuinely felt for both of them. Still, it was uncomfortable to witness as a customer. When I asked when my order would be ready, the waitress told me she didn't know because she had just been yelled at. That response made me feel even more uncomfortable and honestly a little sad for the staff. I applaud the success of Tim's Kitchen and the growth of the brand throughout the community. That kind of success takes hard work. However, it also made me wonder if things have become stretched too thin. This restaurant is where it all started, and I hope the focus returns to the customer experience and the people working there. I don't leave negative reviews lightly, but today's experience has made me question whether I'll return. read more

Not the best experience. Can't say I'm in a rush to get back. I was looking forward to coming here for a while and finally got the chance on Sunday for breakfast. This establishment is in Orting and we had been told it wasn't the safest or most welcoming place for black people. I can't say I got that impression from the service I received today even with the inconvenience we experienced. Long story short, we waited over an hour for the food to come out and it was a little underwhelming. Long story long, my family and I showed up at 12:05 for breakfast and they were busy. We waited less than 5 minutes to be seated and about 5 minutes to put in drink and food orders. We ordered a side of potatoes, 2 orders of the biscuits and gravy with eggs, the lemon blueberry French toast and the classic eggs Benedict. It was an hour before the server let us know our food would be out soon. Within that time, we were checked on twice for drink refills. We watched tables come in, eat and leave. 15 minutes after the server let us know our food was coming out soon, it still hadn't come and we were looking to pay and leave. She said it was coming right up and showed up about 5 minutes later. One plate of biscuits and gravy had an old dry crumbly crunchy biscuit and one fresh biscuit. The gravy was tasty and plentiful, but a little looser than expected. The lemon blueberry French toast was tasty and looked appetizing, but was not hot enough to melt the accompanying lemon butter. The eggs Benedict was flavorful, but the English muffins were soggy. The ham was good quality and the hollandaise sauce was tasty, but had developed a film. We asked for boxes as soon as it came out and noticed we didn't get everything we ordered. Our server comped our drinks and removed the side of potatoes we didn't get. She apologized for the wait and offered a dessert for the inconvenience. She was very kind and the only reason Tim's gets 3 stars instead of one. For cultural context, we were the only black people there. There was only one other person who wasn't Caucasian in the entire establishment and we saw no non-whites in the community on the way there. The service was a genuine concern coming in, but our server worked diligently to remedy the inconvenience. Our guess was they ran out of biscuits halfway through our order being prepared. So it probably sat for quite some time before it got to us once the new biscuits were done, instead of remaking it so it was all fresh. Just wish they would have told us or warned us instead of waiting for us to complain. If that was the case and we were made aware, we would have ordered different things way ahead of the 1 hour mark. We didn't leave until after 1:30 and were quite dissatisfied with the quality of the food. I would t recommend this place to anyone, but I wouldn't protest anyone trying it either. I most likely won't go back anytime soon and don't see myself visiting this establishment in different cities either. read more

For breakfast my favorite is Their Arizona omelette with extra crispy, hashbrowns, and peppers and onions in it, as well as added extra diced ham inside the omelette is so good side of country gravy and for lunch or dinner the fried cod is extra crispy on the outside & tender & juicy on the inside w/side of tater tots, which as well as extra crispy is so good read more

A fairly medicore experience. There was a festival in town this day. I had the chicken and waffles. The chicken didn't have much in the way of seasoning, so I had to make liberal use of the Tabasco sauce. The Waffle arrived like warm and without butter. By the time there was a waffle and butter on the table there was no chance the butter was even going to soften, much less melt on the Waffle. The service was kinda slow, but the people were friendly. I'd give more stars had the food been better, or at least warm. read more

Nice place, good atmosphere. There's a little train that runs around the entire place which was neat. The service was good past the initial 10 minutes. We kinda got forgotten about in the beginning, we got a table a saw other groups who had arrived after us get their food orders taken before we got drinks. Food was ok. I got the meat lovers stacker, and though the potatoes were a bit undercooked it was pretty much what I wanted. The plate it came on was a little small, so I kept dropping bits off the side onto the table. Coffee was typical diner coffee, and my cup never went empty. read more

Weekly regulars at Puyallup location and decided to hit up Orting. While I expected a longer wait on Mother's Day, even for 2 and provided my phone number for the wait list. I was told 45-60 mins and they'd text us. No problem! 90 mins later no text, so I check in and notice the restaurant has died down and wait for the same hostess, who's speaking with another patron annoyed that they've never been called for their table and can be magically set now. To which she says "I just work here" uhhh what?!..... I check in and we instantly have a table- she recognized me from my previous check in, the one where she took my phone number. I mentioned I was checking on the wait list since I never got notified and it's pretty open (130pmish). She brushed it off, I didn't push, but was annoyed but she sits us immediately. Wait staff is moving around as normal, saying hello and saying they'll be right with us, we decide what we want and wait.... And wait. 10 mins go by and a waitress comes over and asks if we can move tables because the table we're at ( a small 2 person table) needs to be used for a reservation instead. I literally pointed out several other 2 person tables and larger open around us.... We declined the move and left. We wasted two hours waiting for service to be ignored, pushed around and awful service. We'll stick to the Puyallup location with wonderful service and food. read more

Ordered their salad bar and they have a good selection of fresh items to choose from. I had their chicken pot pie and it was one of the best I have ever had at a restaurant. Bread pudding with ice cream was delicious and finished the meal. Price was very reasonable and the food and service was excellent. read more

Really good food! Come for breakfast lunch or dinner and bring your appetite. You won't be disappointed with the food and the friendly staff and ambience add to the delightful experience. read more

I ordered my food off DoorDash. I got a turkey cheddar bacon melt and a strawberry milkshake. The Fries were seasoned well and the milkshake was delicious, although I wish it was a little thicker. The sandwich was surprisingly a little bland and the bacon was burned. Will try again in person to see if there's a different experience. read more

I recently visited this establishment and experienced subpar customer service. Upon arrival, the hostess directed us to the front, which was reiterated shortly after. Despite the presence of other customers who had bypassed us, we were eventually informed that the waitress was overwhelmed with tables, a claim I've never encountered before. When I expressed concern about my husband's need to sit, the hostess apologized curtly, and we decided to leave. Following this encounter, I called to lodge a complaint but was met with dismissiveness. Patty, who claimed to be handling the issue, repeatedly interrupted me and didn't seem interested in my feedback. She provided conflicting information about the wait time and seating availability, and when I mentioned my husband's difficulty finding a seat, she suggested alternative seating areas that were not clearly indicated. Her tone remained unaccommodating, and she eventually hung up. Given the unprofessional handling of my complaint, I question the authenticity of her managerial claim. Until I hear from the ownership, I will not be returning. The service was terrible, lacking empathy and professionalism. read more

Tim's is a fantastic little restaurant. The menu is large, the food is always high quality, and the staff--both front-of-house and cooks--are top-notch. A perfect spot for a classic Americana dining experience with great value for your money. read more

We have had breakfast her a few times and between Stephanie or Daniel or Zoey this place rocks. We tried it for dinner on a Friday. It was busy but that's ok we got a table quickly and Zoey was our server. She recommended a few dishes and we placed our orders. I got the Tenders and my wife got the Chicken Fried Chicken. We then waited. And As I assumed because the chicken dishes are cooked to order fresh, that's the reason for the wait. No problem. Then as I was facing the kitchen I see food come up and go out and one order catches my eye. It's ours and it sits and sits and sits dying in the window. ALL of the other servers (there were many) came up looked and walked away, I know Zoey did not hear her name called because she was close and wrapping silverware. Yet no one on the team said "HEY ZOEY YOUR ORDERS UP". Or just RUN THE FREAKING FOOD FOR HER as a team should work together right? Looks like Zoey's team was not a team and OUR FOOD SAT DYING IN THE WINDOW! How right is that? When Zoey finally got the message she rushed the food out to us an apologized but I did not blame her as most if not all of the blame falls on the KITCHEN staff for not calling her name out louder, and then follow up with Hey Zoey your table # order is up, and I blame the rest of the TIM's TEam for not having her back. She (Zoey) was and is a good server, the others (not Stephanie or Daniel) could use training in TEAM WORK or get out of the business. We will be back because of Zion, Stephanie and Daniel, and we will ask for us to be in their sections but anyone else no! I will wait until they are available period. So, HEY TIM, can this be fixed because this location is AWESOME but having just 3-people that does AWESOME work and customer service and team work is not too many to sustain customer satisfaction. Love the location and the interior is great. Just my thoughts. read more

We had a great breakfast at Tim's and our server, Mandy, was a delight! GREAT waffle! My omelette was thin and chock full of goodness. Large inside, games were on and we'd come back for sure! read more

Great place for both breakfast and lunch/dinner. Love the salad bar! Very nice and polite staff.

We like Tim Kitchen but most of their menu is fried foods which makes it difficult for me to find options.

The off-menu chicken dish was worth trying, in my opinion. Before ordering this special entrée, I hope you enjoy steak fries because Tim's Kitchen generously provides plenty of them! The entrée comprises ample steak fries, a dry buttered biscuit, and a chicken thigh and drumstick. I would rate this meal 3/5, primarily due to its value proposition; I still believe that Safeway/Albertsons offers tastier fried chicken. Nonetheless, considering the $12 meal and $4 soda, it's a good deal given the quantity of food you receive. I recommend trying it, but don't expect to be overly impressed. read more

Sadly, we used to order multiple to-go orders of their jalapeño poppers until they switched to the cheddar poppers. The original cream cheese poppers were always a hit and great for parties or gatherings. The new poppers are NOT worth the time or money. The service is always great and the other food is good, but this was a HUGE let down. read more

We had breakfast there recently. Where we are visiting from Florida.. I ordered off the senior menu. Sad to say It was perfect for me. One perfectly good egg. Two very crispy and thick pieces of bacon. A bunch of hash browns and toast and for $2 more. I got gravy on the side for my hash browns. Everything there was absolutely delicious. The surface was wonderful and it's a great atmosphere with a tray going across the ceiling periodically. We will definitely go there again before we go home and I recommended highly read more

I came in and picked up a door dash order on 5/3/2025. Unfortunately I didn't get the waitresses name, but she had on glasses. First she told me I had to go to the back to ask for the order. No problem. She then proceeds to follow me back to the back to let me know she couldn't or wasn't allowed to help the door dash orders. A few minutes later, another door dash guy comes in and asks for his order and she gives it to him. I asked her, I thought you weren't allowed to help the door dashers and she ignored me. (She looked right at me and didn't say anything, she heard me).Then had the audacity to say goodbye to me. Ridiculous read more

This morning at 10:00 AM we walked through the door for our first time. The restaurant was not busy at this time. Two more groups walked in after us. They were done before our order arrived. Our food finished arriving at 11:03 AM. The last order was wrong. After a little while the order was canceled. $3.49 for coffee? Only one refill was brought in the almost 1 1/2 hours we were there. My food was just warm. The other orders were hot. The best part of my breakfast was the buttermilk biscuit. This is my daughter's favorite breakfast place. She wanted to take us to breakfast. When it was her breakfast that was completely wrong I didn't want her picking up the check. So, 3 out of 5 breakfasts were served appropriately. One refill on the coffee in 1 1/2 hours. We asked for a cinnamon roll while we were waiting for our breakfast. It came out just before the breakfasts did. Everyone can have an off day. This was apparently an off day at Tim's. We will try it again before writing it off. read more

Really good food, and the service was fast and easy to order. The waiter was very good at explaining certain dishes, and what was popular in the morning time and informational. It looks like one of those places in the movies where everyone goes to get breakfast, and everyone knows everyone, so it was very welcoming and comforting specially, in the morning time. They have their usual, so it was nice to see a place like that still around. If you're looking for good breakfast, speaking from experience, this is a perfect place to go, because the portions are huge and very fulfilling. read more

Expensive, flavorless hamburger- add some fat to that beef. Offer an affordable, tasty hamburger under ten bucks.

We came here in a group of six adults and a baby in a stroller. Given that it was a later lunch, it was starting to empty out so we were accommodated with a perfect table to also have the stroller next to us. All the food that we ordered was really good. I had a Reuben sandwich and it was pretty solid. My husband had a turkey sandwich that he enjoyed as well. The portions were so large that each of us only hate half of the sandwiches and part of the fries that came with it. Very sizable portions for the price. We liked that with a baby, the restrooms had baby changing tables. Our baby got a little fussy and it was nice that there is an area towards the bathrooms that is open and we were able to hang out there with him for a little bit as he calmed down. This place was extreme family friendly and we will be visiting again. read more

We live in Orting so we visit often. We were out of town the past 5 months and came back today. Couldn't wait to eat here. To begin with there was only one server. She said the other 2 were on a break. It was dinner hour at 6:15pm! This poor girl was trying to do it all so the service suffered. Obviously. The salad was good and the chicken took a while as there was only one person in the kitchen!!!! Tim, fix this! read more

The food was delicious and the service was outstanding. I look forward to going there again when we are in the area.

My family and I were passing through and decided to grab breakfast on our way out of town. Kids enjoyed their pancakes but when it came to my chicken fried steak it Tasted sour/rancid. My wife's potatoes were "cold-warm" and the hollandaise sauce my wife got was bland and no flavor. We expected the quality to be better for the price we paid. Haven't heard from the location as we filled out a survey card mentioning our experience. read more
