My little brother wanted to buy my boyfriend a birthday meal since he was busy working and not able to do a full birthday celebration. I got the Hawaiian burger meal and catfish burger, my boyfriend got their grilled onions burger meal and grilled chicken burger, and my brother got their spicy chicken burger meal and a side order of their curly fries and onion rings. When we arrived, we were told for our fountain drinks for our meal that we could chose whatever we wanted from their fridge as their machine was broken. The food took a few more minutes than the estimated time but it was fine as they got everything correct and it gave me time to ask my brother what he wanted for his drink. The service here seemed friendly and professional as they were very good about informing us when we told them that we were picking up an order and to all those who came after us. The store seems small outside but they had quite a bit of seating and tables for those who wanted to dine in. The decor is retro and gives very much a classic diner vibe which I enjoy. The food here was very tasty! The fries, curly fries and onion rings were delicious and went well with the fry sauce they provide here. The burgers were cooked to perfection! My little brother really enjoyed their spicy chicken burger as being the perfect level of spiciness. I really loved the catfish burger too, it wasn't too thin or thick. Definitely going to have to frequent here whenever we're feeling for burgers or their other offerings!

After a fun day in Seattle, but not being able to find a place to eat without paying $35 to park or…read morefind a table (for a late lunch), I remembered that some friends of ours took us to an amazing seafood place in Tacoma right next to the water...but hidden away from all the large and corporate-type restaurants on Rustin Way. I couldn't remember the name of the place, but we found it: The Fish Peddler! We must have arrived at a perfect interval because there was a table for two that had just been bussed and ready for us near the large counter in the back where food was collected by servers and presented to hungry patrons at any of the 30-40 tables. Our server was genuinely warm and delightful and guided us to the menu and the on-line beer on tap information. Drinks were ordered and delivered in minutes - just enough time for us to announce our selections: A 3-piece halibut and chips for her, and for me, the albacore tuna with spring greens and gouda cheese on sourdough with a pint of I'm Not Afraid Of Music. It had the lowest alcohol content, and since I was driving, didn't want to push my luck. When our huge white dinner plates arrived - oh - did I mention the amazing jalapeño coleslaw? - we were amazed at the size of the perfectly deep fried halibut - which, on their own, provide a good bite, making only a smitten of tartar sauce necessary because you gotta have tartar sauce with fried fish, after all, right? I picked up one my sandwich haves and removed the toothpick with too much gusto and suffered a small splinter that I couldn't remove until I got home a couple of hours later with the help of a magnifying glass, a tweezer and some masking tape. But I ignored the splinter while I enjoyed my "this is NOT your mom's - or HER mom's - Tuna melt". The perfect balance of the albacore spread with the gouda showing up gloriously in almost every bite, the pillowy and cool greens and tomato slice that balanced the heat from the albacore between the two lightly toasted sourdough was my Valentine's Day gift to my mouth. We were stuffed, but not defeated - we ordered our cheesecake to go, and I get to have the last piece of halibut for a snack later on! It was great getting re-acquainted with This cozy, fun, busy restaurant since our last (and first) visit 3 years ago. My only regret is that for some unknown but surely inexcusable reason, I had waited three years before returning. Won't happen again.

This is a casual place, but the food is quality. We got the fish and chips, which were perfectly crispy. The black cod miso was superb. Very fresh and light and flaky and flavorful. We also got the lobster roll. It definitely rivals a lobster roll from the east coast. The service was great. They took care of everything well.

We got their popular combo S which came with 1/2 lb of snow crab, crawfish, head-on shrimps, mussels, scallops, 1 lobster tail, sausages, potatoes, and boiled eggs for ~$108. I thought this was a perfect combo for 4 ppl bc it was a good ratio and came with a variety of seafood. Highly recommend the island house sauce. It's sooo good! There's so much garlic butter flavor mixed with their special seasoning. We also got the island house sauce chicken wings and those were delicious too. The wings were crispy hot and huge. Our waitress said they're the same sauce but tastes very different because of the different cooking style for each dish. Garlic noodles were delicious, lots of garlic butter flavoring. Noodles were kinda soft like ramen noodles. All of our foods were so tasty and customer service was nice and helpful. We will def be back!

Vegan lentil stew was really good! You get a choice between fries or potatoes, and while they were more than happy to make vegan potatoes, I confirmed that I'm fine with diary so I got the regular ones. Overall really great texture for the dish! So many places make their stew veggies mushy, but these were perfect! I also tried the butternut squash grilled cheese which was delightful! The fries appear to be fresh cut and had a wonderful taste and texture to them. The parental unit went with the Flemish stew both times and he is definitely a fan! Great environment. Clean, a little funky. The music choices were so different from my 2 trips that I'm not 100% sure what vibe they're going for, but overall I like it.

Today I went back to one of my favorite restaurants in Federal Way is called Burger han's!…read moreI went there because this is one of the most wonderful burgers in Washington. They have the best fried mushrooms and the best dipping sauces. They also have fish and chips. Shakes onion rings and more. I absolutely love this place because the customer service is wonderful. The food is absolutely great and it just makes you feel like you're in a down Home diner when you go there. Today I was impressed by the owners they hand deliver your food to you at your table and they always have a smile on their face. This place is not expensive. Has wonderful.

I saw on Google reviews that they have a new owner and I can confirm they do as T-mobile gave a coupon for burgers and Han's Burgers was one of the business that came up. It was my brother, boyfriend and myself and there was a few people inside dining in or waiting or their take out. The gentleman at the cash register greeted us and when I showed him the coupon, he told me that was done by the previous order. Regardless, he was willing to give us 15% off for coming in and letting us know that this was a one time pass which was very considerate of him. We ordered the fried chicken burger combo, Hawaiian burger and bacon cheeseburger. They gave us a cup for the lemonade and two small water cups. The food didn't take long and it was still delicious! We were happy that the burgers, service and overall experience is the same. We look forward to stopping by whenever we get our burger cravings as their prices are still fair. I don't know the difference in the inside changes as we never dined in. But they have quite a bit of seating inside with cute table clothes. It is pretty bright inside too but no music playing. They do have a big TV playing news though but also muted.

The man working the fish counter says "we stopped serving food at 4:30". We said, we thought you were open until 5? To which he responded, we are, but we stopped serving food at 4:30. It's ridiculous that they don't continue service until 5. Time for us to look for a new fish and chips place. Not a great way to keep customers. Especially when we missed the cut off time by 1 minute.
