    Came for HH 2-5 $8 house red wine made by Corliss for TMACS that I thought was good. I don't remember the cost of the beer that BF had. No food. The bartender was nice and friendly and it wasn't too noisy as there were just 2-3 more couples at the bar. It's nice that they have happy hour from 2-5 and it's a nice place to hang out to have a drink.

    We made reservations on a Saturday evening at 7:15. We came a little early but they sat us down quickly. I got started with a drink that was a grapefruit martini. It was fresh grapefruit juice which was delicious. Also got started with Seared Ahi. The mango salsa was refreshing and I loved the plantain chips that came with it! It was hard to pick a main dish but I settled on the Wild King Salmon, and we also got the Chicken Marsala. The king salmon was to die for. So incredible and everything paired so well together. The sauce, bok choy, everything! I still am thinking about this dish days later. The chicken Marsala was also so delicious, I really enjoyed the chicken and it was perfectly seasoned and cooked, and I loved the polenta paired with it. All the dishes were so delicious! I would return here again and have the same dishes, but I can't wait to try their other dishes they offer. It's one of the best restaurants I've ever been to! Can't wait to try again when back in Walla Walla.

    Alex was our server and was bright and fun. All the dishes were presented well and were clearly fresh and assembled with care. We particularly enjoyed the Ahi which was full of fresh salsa and plantains, the subtle Black Sea salt was the perfect touch. The pulpo or octopus was also really well executed and had a nice fresh green garnish with the perfect amount of parsley. As a side note the owner and chef was onsite, clearly keeping an eye on both the back AND front of house during the meal. You just don't see that commitment often, Thanks Jose!

    I've walked by this place for years without walking in but finally did and was so happy with the choice. The restaurant inside feels modern and beautiful, busy but not packed, with plenty of space between tables. Most places in Walla Walla have good wine selections and this is no exception. Everything my friends and I chose paired well with the food, and the server was knowledgeable and friendly about each one. And speaking of food - it was really the star of the show. We shared the pea bruschetta which was tasty, and also had an amazing bolognese that was hearty and satisfying without being heavy. My spouse had the gnocchi which felt light and pillowy but also appropriately indulgent. And we all shared a dessert of small bites designed as a fundraiser- very fun.

    We were celebrating my grandson's 17th birthday here and we were visiting from Los Angeles for my other grandson's graduation from Whitman. Our food was good, I had the asparagus soup and it was so creamy and good. I decided to try the chicken Marcella (I've never had this) I didn't care for it. Just me I guess. Everyone liked their meals.

    HH menu

    I've had TMACS on my mind for quite some time. I finally made it over this week while I had a work project in town. And I thankfully made it in time for Happy Hour! I was able to order the Charred Octopus and Wild Salmon wontons on the HH menu. The Charred Octopus was great, not over cooked and chewy, except at the ends. It came with potatoes and a chimichurri, with a spritz of charred lemon for acidity. The Wild Salmon wontons were ok IMO. It was deconstructed, which I didn't expect, so it was a bit hard to eat properly. Then I ordered the Quail stuffed with Chanterelle mushrooms and barley. It was bone-in - and I'm totally fine with that, however it was a bit too salty for my liking. After all those items, I was too stuffed to even attempt dessert! Service was great, not overbearing or rushed. I would come here again, as I want to try other items. Overall, I'd give TMACS 3.75 stars...

    TMACS quickly became one of our go-to lunch spots in Walla Walla--we ended up going twice during our visit. The food was consistently fresh, flavorful, and well-prepared, making it an easy choice to return. The atmosphere is relaxed and welcoming, perfect for a casual yet enjoyable midday break. Service was friendly and attentive both times. Definitely a great lunch spot to add to your list.

    Consistently a wonderful experience and fabulous meal. Wait staff is exceptional. I prefer the main level dining in the front room with all the windows. Expensive but worth it!

    TMACS is hands-down one of the best spots in Walla Walla. The bartender was a standout--friendly, knowledgeable, and made the whole experience feel personal, especially with their insights on the excellent, well-curated wine selection. The food was rich in flavor, beautifully presented, and clearly made with intention. The rotating menu keeps things exciting, don't get too attached, because dishes come and go, but that's part of the magic. Let yourself be pleasantly surprised every time you visit. We ended our meal with an apricot goat cheese cheesecake that has forever ruined every other cheesecake out there... absolutely unforgettable. The ambiance strikes the perfect balance between elevated and relaxed, and the entire staff is warm and attentive. TMACS delivers across the board.

    Abeja recommended this place and I'm thankful. Although it's casual (we sat at bar) the food was delicious. Small menu but what they deliver is very well thought out. See my pics. Bolognese one of the best I've ever had. Beet and burrata salad exceptional. And that bartender can really shake a martini!!

    Visiting friends from Western Wa and was wowed by our chef prepared farm to table lunch experience at TMACS. Appreciated the server went above and beyond to screen out for food allergies. Know Walla Walla is winery galore but neither one of us drink. I really enjoyed they have a decent selection of mocktails. They are both creative and not overly sweet. The menu has a good variety to suit everyone's palette. We all shared the seared ahi tuna with black lava salt and mango salsa it just woke up our tastebuds.. the plantain chips took it to the next level ... delicious and healthy... My friend, hubby and I loved our lunches. My Mediterranean Lentil with halibut may sound too healthy to be delicious but it was super yummy yet super light and guilt free. Love the half grilled lemon to squeeze over my salad for freshness. My friend and hubs were wowed by the lobster mac and cheese and fettucine primavera. Expertly done. Hope they may open another one in WW or will have to make a trip down here.

    Asparagus soup...delicious
    Trisha B.

    Beautiful ambiance. It's consistently been a restaurant that has delivered outstanding food and service every time I've visited. From the moment you step in, you're greeted with a warm, inviting atmosphere that sets the perfect tone for a great meal. The menu offers a variety of delicious options, each prepared with fresh ingredients and attention to detail. The staff is always friendly and attentive, making sure your dining experience is top-notch. I've never been disappointed, and I highly recommend it for anyone looking for a memorable meal.

    See your favorite MILFs enjoying cocktails and laughs at the chic bar. Limited menu, but expect the classics of bolognese, seafood fettuccine, lamb, halibut, etc., in a contemporary setting. Outdoor sidewalk seating available. TMACS has delicious food and drinks, excellent service, and thoughtful touches--making it a favorite for both casual dining and special occasions in Walla Walla.

    All you wine snobs are ridiculous. Not that restaurants dont have bad nights or sometimes bad…read moreservice....but my wife and I LOVED the food. The presentation of the food was great and taste was even better. The K-Sammy is VERY messy but so delicious. Calamari was tender and the dipping sauce was incredible. Not gonna lie, the Pork Cheeks wasn't me or my wifes favorite. But it really wasn't bad. *Lesson of leaving a 5 star before you leave the restaurant....the service was..alright..we had our card out waiting for the check for honestly about 30min or so and it wasnt busy. Room for improvement. We still genuinely enjoyed our visit.

We were seated quickly and it wasn't too busy so we were able to get a booth seat. The inside was nice and the booth was comfy. I decided to try a few items from the happy hour menu. Got an IPA for $8. Started with the k-pop wings. They were delicious and juicy and had a great flavor, and I enjoyed the sauces it came with. Also got the lamb burger. Honestly pretty disappointed. It was pretty dry, with barely any sauces and the bread made it more dry so it was hard to eat. The lamb was pretty good but wasn't the best. I also wish it came with fries or something else as a side. Finally got the Bibimbap with tofu. It was beautifully plated and had a lot of toppings but the rice was inedible. It seems to be at least a day old, not fresh, and it was not warm at all. The rice made it hard for me to enjoy as that was majority of the dish. The tofu was pretty good but overall I wouldn't return here unless for the k-pop wings. After dropping off the bill our waitress didn't come back at all so we had to wait a long time to get checked out, even another waiter had to come in and check us out because he realized she didn't come back. Kinda disappointed :/

    Drove from Bend Oregon to Walla Walla Monday for work…read more My grandparents were from Pasco and my grandma went to Whitman and was on the board there forever so I used to come here with her sometimes. Hadnt been back in about 20 years. Walla Walla got bigger. So did I. Good to see everyone doing well. Checked into hotel. Had business Tuesday. It was Monday. Needed food. Salted Mill. Sat at bar. Ordered non alcoholic beer. Tasted like beer. No alcohol. Basically they removed the consequences. Could be big. First night at a bar I always order cheeseburger. Cheeseburger test. You can learn a lot about a restaurant from a cheeseburger. For example if the cheeseburger is good they probably make a good cheeseburger. Ordered Drive-In Burger exactly how they make it. Never modify the test. Half pound beef. American cheese. grilled onions. pickles. Mill Sauce. sourdough. fries. $22. There are cheaper ways to get beef but I was already there. Burger took awhile. Started looking around. They have these enormous wine barrels that have been hollowed out and they put a table inside. People go inside the barrel and eat. Didnt understand. There were regular tables nearby where you can see the rest of the room. Barrel people chose barrel. Kept watching them. They seemed happy. Maybe barrel is good. I dont know. I dont like ruling things out before I have all the facts. Drank more non alcoholic beer. Still sober. Product works. Might invest. Asked about burger. Burger coming. Good. Started talking to some people next to me. All bartenders. Asked where they bartend. Other restaurants. Apparently Walla Walla bartenders finish bartending and then go to another bar where a different bartender bartends for them. Then that bartender eventually goes somewhere else. Money basically stays in the bartender system. Very efficient economy. Asked what their group was called. Nothing. Couldnt believe it. They already had members. They had meetings. They had beverages. They had geographic concentration. No brand. Told them they need a name. They asked me for one. Had nothing. Classic consultant. Told them I would circle back. Burger arrived. Forgot about bartenders immediately. Insane burger. Crispy edges on meat. Very important. Sometimes the best part of something is the part where it almost burned. American cheese. Correct. People disrespect American cheese because it comes individually wrapped. I like knowing which cheese is mine. Grilled onions everywhere. Pickles extremely pickle. Mill Sauce got on both hands eventually. Burger was no longer really contained. Sourdough fought hard. Held together until almost the end. Respect. Fries were excellent. Ate every one. Found one underneath burger after I thought I was done. Huge night. Burger took awhile but I no longer cared. If something is bad and takes awhile thats waiting. If its good and takes awhile thats cooking. Cheeseburger test passed. Started talking to bartender group again. Asked about the barrel people. Nobody could give me a convincing reason to eat dinner inside a barrel. One guy might have tried. Didnt convince me. I am not anti barrel. Just dont know why I need to be inside one. Investigation remains open. Staff was awesome. Everybody knew everybody. One of those places where you walk in alone and 30 minutes later you're involved in a local bartender naming dispute. This is America. Paid bill. Walked back to hotel. Thought about grandma. She probably walked around some of these same streets when she was at Whitman. Different restaurants though probably. Hope she ate good. Tuesday night my work teammates were in town. Told them about burger. Built burger up pretty hard. We went to go get it. Closed. Wednesday tried again. Closed. Looked it up. Salted Mill is closed Tuesday and Wednesday. Very disciplined. Most restaurants try to sell food every night. Salted Mill willing to walk away from 28.5% of week. Power move. Scarcity creates demand. I wanted burger more. My coworkers never got one. Tough lesson but business trips aren't vacations. Thursday I left Walla Walla. Still no name for bartender group. Been thinking maybe Walla Walla Bar Association but apparently that name is already used by lawyers. Lawyers got there first. Typical. Could also call them The Pour Decisions. Too clever. They need something worse. Will continue working on it for free. Grandma helped Whitman for years. I helped 6 bartenders realize they need a name. Different generations serve the community differently. Great burger. Great people. Great fake beer. Barrel people appeared safe. If you are in Walla Walla on Tuesday or Wednesday I cannot recommend Salted Mill because you cannot go inside. Any other appropriate day highly recommend. 5 stars DM me if you have a name for the bartenders

    Worth the splurge. Service is outstanding, food is…read moredelicious, and sitting in a wine barrel is pretty damn unique. A go to place if you're wanting a 10/10 dinner experience.

The 1st time I went, not long after I moved here, I got a burger at lunch time. I remember thinking it was meh. The meat was dry and the bun was stale. That's about all I remember. 2nd time, I got their version of Eggs Benedict. The eggs were overcooked (jammy-to-dry yolks) and the cheese sauce was terrible. 3rd time was the salmon filet, which was significantly undercooked in the middle. 4th time, I got the Country Biscuit Breakfast: gravy was terribly salty and the scrambled eggs were rubber. Tonight, it was the corned beef hash with two poached eggs and a Belgian waffle: the hash was more green pepper than meat or potatoes, the "poached" eggs were white hockey pucks with completely solid yolks and the Belgian waffle was a fluffy waffle-shaped pancake, no crispness on the outside at all. The waitstaff are fantastic and extremely nice. The setting is ... dated, but serviceable. The place is still better than the truly awful Denny's in town. I really hate ripping the place because the folks are so nice. I guess I'll sum it up this way: I've never had a truly bad meal at Clarette's, but I've never had a truly good meal there, either.

In my personal experience, the vibe here changes noticeably from the day shift to the night shift. During the day, the atmosphere has felt family‑friendly, but at night the local crowd has felt aligned with an alt‑right vibe, and the bartender's style struck me as a kind of cosplay‑MMA persona. To me, that combination comes off as obnoxious and made me feel uneasy. I personally worry that some people there might not be above things like vandalism, theft, or even violence -- that's just my perception based on how the atmosphere felt to me. I'm not claiming anyone there committed those acts; the only documented issues from that night were my stolen keys and slashed bike tires, which I reported to police. I think this place is fine for monthly theme parties, and it feels family‑friendly during the day. But at night and on normal weekends, I personally feel much safer and have more fun at Beer Parlor or Public House. Food is fine, and most of the staff seems good in my experience. It says "bicycle parking," but I personally would not park my bicycle here after dark. My bike's tires were damaged on a previous visit, and I don't want that to happen again, so that's just my personal caution..
