I stood there while groups of employees walked by and no one stopped to ask if I needed help. Initially walking down the gutter aisle an employee was already helping someone and as I approached the employee turned around and walked away and also being in the group that walked by. I eventually walked over to the other aisle and asked for help from an employee that was helping someone else. He was really nice and a big help. So why was I ignored by about 4 other employees? Who knows. I've been in this particular ACE in Belfair and occasionally the employees are nice but a good portion of the times they are not. It must be miserable working there.

It had been a few years since we visited THS and we heard that they redid the interior and possibly…read morechanged management, so we decided to give it another chance. The cocktails all seem to be named after nautical terms, likely a nod to their island locale. I got the Buoy, which was a tequila-based cocktail with blackberry, Campari, and rosemary. It was quite refreshing. We split the smoked salmon chips and dip, because we both love smoked salmon and Old Bay. This was tasty, but I think a cream cheese dip requires a chip that's sturdier than a potato chip. I ordered the seared ahi and my spouse ordered the burger. We both enjoyed the seared ahi, though I wish it had more of the whipped tahini and harissa. We agreed that the burger was solid, but not the best restaurant burger we've had. We finished with the key lime pie and pot de crème. Recommend both (though maybe avoid the pot de crème if you don't like coffee)!

We just moved to Shelton, are home owners & would prefer to support this local business, however the unyeilding insisting (bordering on harassment) that a customer MUST accept a bag is very unappealing. I, as your customer, have a right to refuse a bag, regardless of your paranoia over shoplifting. Please don't require your employees to insist on this, it makes them come off as pushy & leaves a negative tone at the end of a transaction. So much so that I was distracted enough at having to defend myself that I forgot to pick up my bag of potting soil on my way out & now I really don't even want to go back for it!

I know most employees there are great people though last couple years saw a couple have appeared as if they would rather not be there and I suppose it 'cause of p.o.s. owner. A couple years ago a lousy attitude employee gal took my order to mix a five gallon bucket of paint and sold me the wrong product and I went back to speak with owner (wish I recalled his name) to resolve issue and waited ten minutes for him to appear though he never did- just remained in his office upstairs so I'm out $200.00. Because of him and the dwindling customer service I so much enjoyed at every other Ace Hdwr. I steer clear of this one whenever I can. My apologies to the staff as most are stellar though it seems they deserve more consideration from owners. I prefer to support local business' though this guy takes the fun out of it.
