    I wish Underground Kitchen were open later in the night because the vibes are it here!! This place is perfect if you're trying to find a late-night spot to eat with friends and hang out. Their chicken is tooo good, and I honestly have to come here more often whenever I'm craving Korean Fried Chicken. They give very shareable plates, and I always have some food to take home when I visit here.

    Wings were delicious and the portions were good. There was plenty of seating and the atmosphere had a great vibe to it. Great spot for friends and family. I would come back again for sure.

    besides us waiting 45 mins to be seated, the food was really flavorful and fresh! The wings are actually crispy! large portions for sharing and the ambiance is welcoming.

    Solid Korean fried chicken! Portion size was perfect. Service was good and the restaurant itself had a good amount of seating. Music and dim lighting is the vibe here but not overwhelming with a toddler. Definitely going to be back!

    I always love a good Korean Fried Chicken place. Being on my own for dinner on a business trip, tried the Underground Kitchen, but to go. I will say that I was not disappointed. The staff was very helpful when placing my order. Now please bear with me that this was back in September 2021. I would go back again, it if I was in the area.

    Decided to do takeout from here to watch my love island finale (LOL) and it ended up pretty good. I ended up waiting almost 20 mins after the told time but they seemed a little busy. This time the chicken wasn't garlicky at all, and the creamy udon seemed a lot more dry than usual. It wasn't the best tonight.

    Corn cheese always must be ordered. We tried their potstickers which were also delicious. The wings were on point and the vibes were fun. Service was good and I would return

    A little bit of an odd vibe, but the food was fantastic, I got the half and half chicken, wife got seafood udom, both of us were extremely happy. Special shout to their steamed dumplings those were midnight blowing. Would definitely be back again.

    The service was prompt! The chicken was good. The spicy rice cake was very mid. Unfortunately lacked so much flavor.

    I like their chicken. The half-and-half is a good option and the sauce wings. I got a three star which was the perfect amount of spice. My friend got honey, garlic wings, and they were sweet and sticky, but very delicious. It's also very flavorful and crunchy. I did not like their cheese corn. Also their boneless chicken has no flavor so get some dipping sauce. My favorite thing that we ordered was definitely their Mandoo (fried dumplings). Ambience is very dark, almost like fine dining setting. It's also very lax and chill. Service was all right. Next time I'm here. I'd love to try the creamy udon and spicy rice cakes.

    UberEats: Stir fry beef brisket with beans sprouts
    Aileen C.

    We decided to tried this place on 9/13/21 (during the pandemic). The restaurant is located in the same building as the Shin Sung Korean Cuisine and in between Hair Bank business. There's a door that leads downstairs. The restaurant is literally underground LOL! One of my daughter's friend had raved about the how good the honey garlic chicken was and suggested we try it. One evening, we ordered the honey garlic chicken ($23.00) to include the beef brisket with bean sprouts ($20.99). They both were delicious! Honestly, I'm just not convinced with paying $23.00 for the amount of chicken we received. The cost seemed pretty high.

    Great place to get Korean bar food like Korean fried chicken and creamy udon. Food came out fast, large menu, fun, casual spot, the chicken fried chicken was good, the flavor was good although I've had better, it tasted like general tso or sesame chicken, the creamy udon was good too.

    Corn cheese
    Mike L.

    Underground kitchen is literally underground (well P1) of shin sung restaurant. The entrance is to the left of shin sung and down a flight of stairs. The vibe is very chill with "plates" as disposable paper baskets and sharpied walls. I got two chicken dishes and two sides which ended up being about $30 per person. The corn cheese was solid and the creamy rice cake (dukbokki) was nice and reminded me of a creamier carbonara. Yangyum chicken: the chicken was crispy and the sauce was sweet and savory and reminiscent of a orange/general tso flavor. creamy onion chicken: this chicken dish comes boneless and topped with onions and a creamy white sauce. the white sauce was reminiscent of mayo so it must've been very heavy with mayo. Overall, not a bad chicken spot and would be good for late night eats and drinks.

This time, the behavior escalated into an unsafe situation. An employee physically grabbed an aluminum can from my hand, which resulted in many cuts. Not once was I asked to leave prior to this and if she would've said I needed to leave and to hand over the drink she had JUST served me, I absolutely would have. This did not happen. I have witnesses. The reason for the aggression was because I said out loud " I miss how this place used to be". Apparently that gave her the right to physically assault me. I had to contact law enforcement as a result of what occurred. The manager as well as the owner do nothing to protect the patrons that have spent thousands of dollars, but they will protect the abusive staff and not review video footage when patrons try to make a formal complaint. This situation, and many others, were not handled professionally. There appears to be a pattern of aggressive handling of customers, including frequent removals from the establishment under unclear circumstances.

We never disliked the beer but it was also not one of our most favorite breweries in Tacoma. But we have learned that it looks like new ownership has taken over at this brewery. The name remains the same. The merchandise is mostly the same in concept but with a few tweeks. Probably what we noticed most was the beer recipes changed as did some of the beer options. We felt like it was an improvement actually. We have been here twice now since the changes and it definitely generates more motivation to go over there. We have had a few very tasty lighter beers since on the first visit. On the second we had a great Black IPA called Nightmare 21. Black IPA'S aren't super common so we get them when we can. Another fun dark beer was Haunted Windchimes was what it was called. The name itself sold me on wanting it but it didn't disappoint either. So looking forward to more frequent returns to North 47!

Karla came over right away and helped us with the kindest attitude. When we asked how to add sauces, she said, "They're free, just let me know which ones you want," and brought us two of each to try. It's so refreshing to visit a place that doesn't nickel and dime you. After placing our order, I realized I forgot to get a patty for our dog. Karla came by to check on us, and when I told her, she said she would make sure it came out with our food. It actually came out a few minutes before, which was perfect so our dog could eat first. That level of care really stood out. As for the food, everything was delicious. The loaded fries were savory and rich with a perfectly cooked egg on top. The burgers were juicy and flavorful, and the truffle fries with greens were a nice balance. The orange juice was honestly one of the best I've had. It was fresh, tangy, and had just the right amount of sweetness. The space itself is bright, open, and welcoming. There are games at every table, and it's both dog friendly and family friendly. We'll definitely be back. Karla, thank you for going above and beyond to make us feel welcome.
