I have been going here for at least 20 years. The food is so reasonably priced that a family of four could eat for under 30 dollars. The portions are large and the service is amazing. I will continue to go here for years to come.

I had heard a lot about Southern Kitchen but had never been there myself. I finally went with some close friends on a Sunday around 11am. The cozy establishment was packed, and there was never a drop in people wanting tables. Obviously, this place was popular. The four of us were seated (we did have a little bit of wait) and we looked over the menu. So many choices...but not an over-whelming amount. They all sounded good. Most of us ordered some sort of lemonade (they offer three kinds: regular, strawberry and mango) which came in large jars with chunks of fruit on the bottom and whipped cream on the top. I don't think I could have finished it if I had tried, and it was definitely worth the price (as opposed to other places where you pay $2.50 for a tiny glass). The food was incredibly reasonably priced and the portions were extremely generous! I was so full after that I just wanted to curl up under a blanket and hibernate for the winter! The service was quick and friendly, and the tv was tuned to football. Southern Kitchen is a comfortable and welcoming place. My friends and I are making a tradition out of it: first Sunday of every month!

My wife and I get cravings for this food. I always have spaghetti with marinara and she always has the tortellini aurora with scallops. We are travelers and have eaten in probably a hundred Italian restaurants and this one has absolutely the best flavor. It is head and shoulders above the nearest comparable. Also the homemade balsamic vinaigrette is the best ever as well. You will not be disappointed.
Pros: Exquisite flavor and fresh ingredients
Cons: mildly pricey--but soooo worth it

The service at Indochine made such a great impression on me. There is always someone to greet you at the door and we are always promptly seated.
I had laryngitis when my boyfriend and I first dined here, and when I mouthed to the server that I lost my voice, she recommended I stay away from the ice water and drink some hot lemon tea with honey, which she promptly brought to the table. I was amazed at how friendly and attentive she was to how I was feeling.
When my boyfriend started to order, she recommended dishes that we could share, and her suggestions were perfect. The food was delicious!
This is definitely one of my favorite restaurants, as it always provides great atmosphere and service.
Pros: Great service
Cons: None!

I highly recommend Stanley and Seaforts. I thought it might be a stuffy and out of date place, but it turned out to be the best restaurant in Tacoma (actually our best experience in all of Seattle too). Our server made a big difference, she was very knowledgeable and excited about the food. Highly recommend the steak dishes and scallop dishes. We're going back next month.
Pros: Excellent priced mixed drinks
Cons: wine servings small, stay with the mixed drinks.

The Steaks are VERY delicious, I haven't had a steak this good since "Cheeves Brothers" in Temple, TX. The price of the steaks are well worth it by the way!! Please...................leave the kids at home or with a babysitter! Finally, dress up, jeans and running shoes are not suited for this place!!!

This place is worth the visit just to check out the funky bar they made out of an old engine company. The food is good by bar standards and really not that expensive. Also have a lot of different beer choices if you are a beer drinker.

Really wonderful staff; Eric, Matt and Linda among others, go out of their way to make you feel welcome and at home. Excellent food, atmosphere, music, ongoing trivia games, sports and of course a huge selection of ale and spirits. Their house cabernet is terrific. My husband and I enjoy having a casual dinner and drinks, then walking across the parking lot to see a movie at the new Galaxy theater. Recommend the Baja Burger (Lots of Jalapenos) or Calamari with the best onion rings in Washington state
Pros: Great staff
