    This was an OK dive bar. There was Karaoke, but it wasn't the best quality. I ordered a bagel dog and was able to finish it.

    Loved my experience here. The people are friendly and the live band was awesome if I lived in Washington I would be a regular!

    First, I absolutely love the open mic night here and dance floor was so much fun…read more Our server was great! She made sure our table had plenty of water and always made sure our sips never went dry. My issue was the food. So to keep me safe I always order a side salad, but I needed a little protein so I also ordered some grilled chicken on the side with ranch dressing. Most of the way through my salad the started to turn in my stomach. Once the spicy chicken came out, I requested to send it back, due to the menu not specifying that the spicy chicken is only grilled chicken with Sriracha sauce poured it all over it. The menu specifies grilled with spices. Not true unfortunately. I decided to eat the grilled chicken that was plain and again my stomach started to turn. I honestly couldn't figure out if it was the chicken, the salad or the ranch dressing that was not sitting right in my stomach and boy! Let me tell you later on that evening. I ended up in the middle of the night not in the best situation. I unfortunately had food poisoning of some sort. I still think this is a great establishment to go and hang out to hear musicians, artist, and entertainers play and they have a great selection of drinks. I am taking a drawback on ordering food. As always, stay safe out there and thank you for following my reviews. I appreciate all the support. See you at my next bite.

    Decent bar food, lots of regulars, good spot for a bite before a concert at Airport Tavern. It was…read morefine.

    I'm finally on a streak on hitting the right stops! What a beautiful place next to the wasteland…read moreof Tacoma. The place is VERY beautiful inside. Most of all.... They have OUTDOOR SEATING!!! Let's start off with the MOCK COCKTAIL the Blueberry Mojito. OMG! It was DELICIOUS!!! It had a lot of flavors. Then came out the Beef Wellingtons. They were shooters. The menu says they typically come out in about 25 minutes. We ordered them anyway. Luckily for us they came out first. They were delicious!!! Nice and hot. The breading was nice and flaky. We will ordering these again! The shrimp cocktail and the salads came out. They were all good. However, my wife noted that her Avocado and Bacon Salad needed more Avocado and Bacon. Last the Garlic Ptarmigan Fries. The garlic level can be considered "Date Level". So, if you are looking for something more garlicky then this is not really for you. Salted Rim Bar and Kitchen was really busy. Especially for a Sunday night. They had a trivia contest going on so it was a little loud. However, with the business of the night they had enough staff to go around. With the staff being plentiful we were not ignored. As for the staff themselves they were all extremely nice and friendly. We will most definitely come back here again!!

    Parking garage, meter parking until 6pm or so ($2 per hour or something really cheap like that)…read moreOutdoor seating, lively atmosphere, amazingly friendly and attentive staff. Very casual and fun vibe. Drinks are deliciously strong. Food is tasty, i stuck with appetizers while my husband had one of their entrees. I was surprised at how the pretzels did not taste like they were microwaved (like other places) the cheese was so yummy - I dipped my fries in it. Jumbo shrimp lived up to their name. Loved our experience and will be back! Thank you, Melissa
