I live in town and dont come here enough! So many good and unique options on the menu its hard to pick. I got the club sandwich this time and it was amazing taste wise. Even more amazing was the obvious care they took in putting the sandwich together, not sloppy, presentation PLUS! Im not a person to take pictures of my food although this one deserved it. read more

Waited about 5 minutes to even be seated with no greeting, so we seated ourselves. Then it took about 10 minutes for us to be greeted with a menu. Took them 15 minutes to come back and take our order. Then waited an hour and a half or so just to get our food that was absolutely terrible. Worst chicken fried steak I've ever had. read more

Excellent food! We had a big group and they were very attentive and fast. Especially helpful since we had hungry 2 year olds. Try the California omelette read more

Best lunch we've had in a long time! Food was great and service was exceptional. Fish and chips and french dip was delicious.

Yummy food. Kind staff. I can't believe we live down the street and have never been in. Will definitely be back

After reading the Yelp reviews this sounded like a fun place for lunch plus it was a beautiful day for a drive to Orting. When we got there all the tables were full so we waited 5 minutes for a booth to open up. I decided on the salad bar which was fresh with a nice variety of produce options. There was a limited number of other salads but they were all tasty. This was a great lunch spot and we'll definitely be back. read more

I guess in this little town this place is one of the best places to eat, but it's nothing that will knock your socks off. We found our food underwhelming, to say the least. Cleanliness is also a factor throughout the restaurant. Not worth the $$. read more

Waited 25 minutes to be seated after making reservations, waited almost an hr for our food and when they brought me my food it was cold.

Wonderful service and food. Our party of 16, visiting hikers from Texas, was lucky to find this rustic western themed gem. I had the BLT and it was simply perfection. The chicken fried steak nearby looked divine too! Our entire party left feeling very pleased. The servers handled our large party in a pleasant and efficient fashion. Great value as well. I will definitely be back the next time we are in the area. read more

keeping it short and simple. food was good, hot, and coffee was always full. we got the peanut butter and bacon pancakes. yummy. wifes omelet was good. there was a couple of ingredients in it she didnt order, but it was good. customer service was decent and food pretty good. no wait for a seat on a Saturday morning. read more

Food is delicious and staff are extremely friendly. It's my family's favorite little place to eat in town. The train that drives above around the restaurant, really helps keep the little ones entertained as well when trying to eat read more

The place is clean and the staff is great. They have one of the few salad bars around anymore which is a big plus. It has a nice assortment to offer and is always visited by us when we dine there. The food is OK. Rather limited selection unless you are looking for sandwiches. We hear the breakfast is wonderful but we'll have to try that for ourselves at another time. read more

Friendly staff. GREAT food! When we're there, we feel like we're visiting family. The fruit cobbler is amazing! The salad bar is the freshest there is. read more

Delightful and appreciative service from the entire family. Model train adds to local atmosphere. Very good Western Bacon hamburger (no cheese - didn't miss it!)...and everything fried (pickles, fries, onion rings) was PERFECT. If you're in town, it's a great stop with all the basics done right. read more

This place was delicious, and worth the 40 minute drive from Tacoma. The chicken fried steak is amazing, and just what a CFS should be. The mashed potatoes were creamy and thick. The mac and cheese was good, but just a little thin and lacking in flavor under the yummy cheesy crust. And, it was a nice option to have the salad bar. The service was attentive and quick. Overall, would give it a 4.5. We'll definitely be back! read more

This place has the best home cooked meals. There is usually a wait, but it is totally worth it. The breakfast pizza is my favorite, it is really filling and makes great leftovers. I prefer the breakfast over dinner but both are great. read more

This is an excellent spot for families. Great service and easy family friendly options on the menu. We popped into Tim's Kitchen after visiting Orting for a rugby jamboree. We called ahead to say we were 12 and they had a table ready for us when we arrived. Then other teammates decided to join us, for a total of 22. The staff cheerfully moved tables to accommodate us all. Danielle was a great server - quick to take orders, took the initiative to get the kids' orders to the kitchen first, and offered to spilt the bill. The food came out in good time and was easy family fare in generous portions: burgers, corn dogs, mac and cheese, fried chicken, etc. There is a good public playground right across the street, which the kids enjoyed once they were done. Thanks Danielle and the team at Tim's Kitchen! We enjoyed our dinner in Orting. read more

Finally made it to try Tim's Kitchen and was very pleased. Bathrooms are nice and clean, service was pretty good. They have a huge menu, lots of specialty sandwiches so I had my favorite: Monte Cristo, which is hard to find on a menu. Really, really good! So, when I am down that way again ( great place to stop on a nice day drive) I will make sure to eat at Tim's once again. Try it, you will enjoy it. There is also a running toy train up near the ceiling. read more

Great service, family friendly, and the kids love the train! Plus, not many local places serve sweet tea and this Southern girl loves a good glass of SWEET iced tea! Go try it! Yummy food and decent prices are a win in my book! read more

My husband and I love this place! Best home cooking around. Our waitresses are always super friendly and take great care of us and it's such a warm and cozy environment! Definitely are go to spot in Orting. read more

Great breakfast! You gotta try the cinnamon rolls.. food was very good. I had the chicken fried pork chops, tasted good and a nice change from chicken fried steak. The menu has a nice variety of selections for breakfast. read more

To the person complaining about the music. ,Did you come to this wonderful restaurant to eat or think you were at some musical social vent. The music they play while eating there Is great and the food Is wonderful along with the great service. It Is hard to believe that a person would make a statement about music at a restaurant??????????? Hard to believe you printed that. read more

Tim's is like our second home because we are there so much! Everything is delicious and the people are super friendly. We just love everything about them! read more

Starting with prompt and friendly greeting! Always a plus! A generous portion of edible food, Ideal!! I have talked to the townfolk and neighbors. I have read the reviews. Nobody seems to be impressed, nor in a hurry to return. BUT! The menu seemed enticing, well written. So, having a need for other people's cooking (and cleaning), I decided to take a gamble! The restaurant is very clean and comfortable. (So are the restrooms! Another test.) I am very pleased with my visit! I took my leftover chicken fried steak dinner home (for another 2 or 3 meals for me!) I did go alone. I was served right away, even though I came in during employees' lunch break. I felt very comfortable and welcomed. Okay... Another BUT! I felt abandoned in an empty new place. And even though the portions are large, the prices are a but expensive. I can't afford to go there. And, I certainly could NOT take a family. Although, a young family was entering as I was exiting. Good to see that! When I can budget for another visit, I will take another gamble! read more

Food was great, staff was awesome, prices were good. I gave them three stars because the theme of the restaurant is cute, but after sitting in the restaurant for just fifteen minutes with the train music playing over and over it was difficult to sit in there for very long. We will probably eat there again, but will do take-out. It was also disappointing they did not have beer or wine, and according to the waitress would not be obtaining alcohol at all. read more

What a surprise! Gourmet Hotdogs? Who would have thought that you could have a Ruben sandwich as a hotdog .that tasted just like the real thing? I have had hotdogs all over the U.S. and one of the best I have found was at Tim's Kitchen. The atmosphere was welcoming and friendly I felt as if I had walked into that hometown dinner where everyone knew one another and that they were at home. There was a train that ran overhead and gave the place more of that at home feeling. I had great service from what seemed to be a new server as he was very polite nut nervous at the same time. The manager even came by and asked how everything was going and she seemed very sincere about her query. I would defiantly eat here again. Thanks for the great experience! read more

We live in Orting and eat at Tim's, at least once a week. We never miss Wednesday Ribs night. The wait staff is awesome, and Tim is always there making sure everything meets his expectations and that people are happy. I love this place... if on an evening we don't know what to do for dinner, we go to Tim's. read more

The food is mediocre, pricey, and the waitress got our kids order wrong. Ended up for 3 people, one being a child, cost us almost $50. Won't be back. read more

I am an Orting resident and have been to Tim's Kitchen a couple of times now. The food is really good, and the service is exceptional. However, I have a couple concerns. It seems as if older customers are frequenting this restaurant the most. I am in my 30's, and although the old timey theme is cute, in this small town, they may need to change two things. 1. The music is awful. All that plays is old fashioned "saloon" music. For about five minutes, it is really fun, but after that, I am itching to get out of there! It is really bothersome to me. Perhaps they could mix it up with some other 20-40's retro cool music or something. To a music lover, the music in a restaurant sets the mood and adds to the atmosphere. If they want to attract a younger crowd, the music must change. 2. They really need to sell alcohol. Even Chef Robert Irvine (I watch Restaurant Impossible a lot) makes restaurants who don't...start.) You can still have a wholesome, family style restaurant atmosphere with alcohol being served. My suggestion is a few local microbrews, and a few simple wine selections. The bulk of the menu is hot dogs and sandwiches, or simple comfort foods. A beer/sandwich combo is great, and a glass of chardonnay would go nicely with them as well. Anyway, in order to REALLY make money, these two things need to change. I love my town, and I want new businesses to be successful. Please think on it. ~ Concerned Orting Resident. read more

I really wanted to love this place. We live in orting and were very excited to have this sort of resturaunt so close. Our first experience was not so great. I went with my mom, sister and my two sons. Our food took over an hour to come out. We were told there was a computer mix up. The lettuce at the salad bar was turning brown. One of my sons got the corn dog bites. They came out very burned. My other son ordered a plain cheeseburger, ketchup only. He got mayo, mustard, lettuce and tomato, everything he didn't ask for. I asked for the grilled cheese, no tomato. I got tomato and was charged for it. They ran out of the dessert we ordered. We had to ask for refills many times. I get that things happen, I've worked in food service before, but literally everyone of our orders were wrong or burned, and waiting over an hour for food is insane, especially when they weren't that busy. We won't be back. read more

We went here for breakfast recently. This is a tough one because we just had the 5$ breakfast which is a really good deal for two eggs, meat, hash browns & toast. The issue wasn't the food. We went in and were sat by a friendly woman, our server came over & when we asked how she was she said "oh I've been better" awkward...my husband tried to lighten the mood and said oh you've been busy? She precedes to tell us that they are short staffed. Brings coffee & than goes away again until the other woman who may have been a manager came & took our order. It didn't look like they were too busy with a few other tables. I know it's small town but when you are in customer service even if you are having a bad day you don't want to share that with your customer, it just makes the experience bad all around regardless. Thankfully the other woman took over our table because we felt like we were just an annoyance to the other server. They should hire better servers. read more

tims use to be our favorite breakfast and weekend dinner place untill Randy showed up. he is a lousy rude waiter, does not listen and his piss poor dimeaner does not live up to the five star service we are used to at tims. the first time we got him for a waiter i gave him a 10% tip, i normally give the waiters there a 30% tip because of their excellent service . we would visit tims' 4 to 5 times a month and spend $250.00 to $300.00 a month there. our following visit we asked for a table in aimee section, for some reason she gave it to randy and yes he was rude again and pretty much threw my plate on the table when he brought it our next and final visit to tims' i clearly asked for any table other than randys 'section, and for some reason the girl at the front seated us in randys' section, when my wife and her son got there and discovered we were in randys' section again! after clearly asking for another, we got up and left, we shall never return to tims' again as long as that rude randy works there , so tim randy just cost you $3000.00 a year in lost patrons, congratulations on wrecking our favorite e place to eat read more

my wife and I went in for lunch few days ago the waitress older lady was talking to someone looked at us and kept talking we stood there a good 8-10 min. before she finally greeted us,they only had a few tables and it took a good 25min. to get food we were ok with that....kinda,well until I bit into my burger and it was raw the waitress didn't come back to check on us she was back over talking again so we just paid our bill and left we will never go back. read more
