The attached bakery has some decadent treats and is open before the main restaurant opens at 3 (or at least that's how it worked the day we visited). Every dish was enjoyed, for sure. Standouts were the borscht (beet soup, and I'm not even the biggest fan of beets), peroshki appetizer, and surprisingly the apple kombucha was knockout! They should really bottle it up and sell it individually. A bit pricier, especially if you go for higher priced entrees, but i would also consider many items fairly priced. Totally worth the experience in my opinion!

Also, the establishment is in a lovely location a few miles from Mt Ranier NP. Alas neither the service nor food was good. While we didn't wait long for initial service to take our order and to get our wine and salads, the entrees took a while (didn't check my watch to see how long we waited) and the dishes were delivered separately; I had the chicken kebabs (both meat and vegetables were cold). By the time I stopped eating (I ate less than half of my entree), my husband got his entree. He ordered the pork ribs, which were the appropriate temperature and tasted good. As for service, twice we asked another server to get the person waiting on us for water and a second glass of wine for my husband, and to ask for our check. At the beginning of our experience, we saw interesting entrees on the menu for breakfast and thought to return in the next day or so and give them another try. After a disappointing dinner experience, we will not return.

There were three of us dining in together today and we decided to order the Garlic Parmesan Fries to share! These were absolutely delicious and served on such a large platter. Perfect item to share. I ordered the Cookie Butter Chai Latte and Split Decision Sampler (pearl sugar and southern waffle, two eggs and choice of bacon or pork sausage). My boyfriend ordered the Bergamot London Fog. I didn't take a picture of the food he ordered, but it was one of the specialty eggs entrees. I was a little underwhelmed by my entree choice, however it was still good. I didn't want to be too stuffed, so it was a good choice overall. The service was great. Super friendly and energetic staff working, which made it a great experience.

We were planning to come to Gig Harbor again very soon anyway and planned to come back here and eat. We were under the impression here that the restaurant served sandwiches but that is not correct. It is a waffle place in which you can get sweet and savory waffles. When I am at a waffle place and I have the choice of and I am hungry enough I will get a savory waffle and a sweet waffle. That was just such the case here and so sweet and savory waffles were ordered. I ordered the Blackout which was a sweet waffle with whipped cream cheese, jam and some powdered sugar. For the savory waffle I got the The Hilltop which was a chicken and waffle arrangement with breaded chicken, maple syrup drizzled on it and some powdered sugar. Both waffles were good! They are served kind of in a rolled up manner and not served flatly on plates so it makes them easy to become "to go" orders if that is your desire as well. But if you want to sit and relax the dining setting is nice and laid back.

We did take some time to wait before seated, to get our food and to get our bill, I guess it was understandable since it was a holiday weekend, and the staff were friendly and helpful. I had the train wreck burger, at least I could say it's worth the wait. It was loaded with meat. The pulled pork was really flavorful with tangy BBQ sauce. Highly recommend to meat lovers. I also love my ginger ale, it was definitely the most spicy ginger ale (in a good way) I've had. The only thing I want to complain is the tip option actually starts from 20%, in this economy? Restaurant owners, stop being pity and pay your staff a decent basic salary.

We took a day trip up to Mount Rainier and stopped for dinner on the way back. We liked the vibe of…read morethe place--sitting in a train car is a cool experience--but the food was terrible. We both ordered the prime rib, medium. My wife requested a salad and I asked for soup. Neither side ever arrived. After we saw the steaks, we decided to cut our losses. The prime rib was only about a quarter-inch thick, which is already a red flag if you know steaks. It was cooked hard as leather. I ate about half of mine; my wife boxed hers up. When we got back to the hotel we threw it in the trash. I understand this is a roadside attraction, and it has been around a long time, so I assumed the food would at least be decent. I would not recommend the food. The experience of eating in a train car is neat, but that is about it. This was not the first meal we have had to throw away this week. The man running the place was very nice, so no complaints there. A couple renting a room for the night seemed excited about staying, and I have nothing negative to say about that--only the food.

Not only does this area hold much promise once it's fully open but Abe's makes a wonderful food option here. You can get savory or sweet waffles and I got one of each.

Ingredients were very fresh and it was reflected so in the flavors. Plenty of other choices from this waffle menu to absorb and definitely worth a return visit to try more of those options!
