Great place to come and watch a game(they have multiple screens for (football/ sports) and have amazing food and drink! I always get the appetizers. The J-Pops and the Crab Cheese Puffs are my favorite. On cold rainy days, they have an amazing ramen soup bowl that warms the soul! You will not be disappointed. The staff are friendly and the food is fresh and delicious. If you are looking for good food and drinks and you come here, you have arrived! read more

Cute little dive bar that serves freshly cooked Asian dishes in downtown Grants Pass! Would be a fun evening for friends to hang out, drink some cocktails and enjoy the fun food to share! We went for lunch to try it out and enjoyed the small and larger dishes too. My favorite was the Mie Goreng with beef and the crab cheese puffs. The best part though was the lovely waiter, (the receipt said his name was Gede) who was so sweet and friendly! read more

You might want to call this an Indonesian dive bar with dining tables in and out. It can be very loud, depending on the client s at the bar. The food is good and service friendly. The avocado bomb was super...the highlight of the meal. The honey walnut prawns good and the Rendang tasty but very very salty. A very interesting stop in Grants Pass with local flavor. read more

I know what you're thinking because I was thinkin the same thing: Asian and Tapas don't go together. As a matter of fact, that almost stopped me from going. Fortunately, Yelp reviews convinced me to give it a shot. I went for a late dinner and wasn't sure I had the right place, as the sign was hard to see and it looked more like a dive bar than a good Asian place. I sat at the bar and had a friendly and helpful bartender. I asked him what his favorites were, and went with his suggestion by ordering the seared peppered tuna and chicken wings. I opted for a heat level of 3/5. The seared peppered tuna was excellent. It was served on a bed of mixed greens with a balsamic-style sauce. The greens are one of those confusing parts of a dish where I ask myself "is this a garnish? Do I eat this?". The sauce was so good, I didn't care what it was and devoured the whole plate. The wings were also good: a slightly dry chicken was more than madeup for by the sauce which had the right amount of heat with a hintness of sweet behind it. I'm still pretty sure that Asian Tapas isn't a thing, but after eating here, I'm also pretty sure I don't care. Great spot. read more

I cannot speak highly enough about this place in every aspect. The food is a 10 out of 10 the service is a 10 out of 10 the atmosphere is a 10 out of 10. The amazing bartender/waiter was beyond welcoming and his service was on point. The regulars who sat around me, were very welcoming and explained to me about all the fantastic food there, which made picking dishes on the menu easy. At this point, I've tried quite a few things and not one of them could I find a flaw. read more

Friendly and Clean establishment. Good menu. Freshly made dishes! Tried many different things and every one of them were good. Try The Avocado Bomb, it is an appropriate name for it! Delicious! read more

So we went to visit Taroko on 6th St. In Grants Pass. This was our first time, we told the server "it was our first time here", he did not mention any customer favorites. We ordered chicken kebabs, beef kebabs, Poke salad and Corn Fritters for an appetizer. Beef and Chicken kebabs were so disgustingly overcooked no flavor at all truly disappointing! When a customer comes in for the first time and tells the server we've never been here, it's a given that they would recommend customers favorites. When we asked for the bill, the server then decided to recommend what most people eat there. Well truth be told I never see anybody walk in and out so when you walk into a restaurant and no one's there one may rethink eating there, and may ask WHY isn't there any customers here? Very disappointed in Taroko. read more

We stopped in this small town for dinner during our road trip. Ambience - 3/5. It's more of a bar which offers unexpectedly good mix of Asian food. Service - 5/5. Not only they were friendly but also extremely kind. After the end of our meal, we asked if they could make a special chicken stir fry with no seasoning for our puppy and they made it for us without any hesitation. Our puppy who refused to eat her kibble all day finally stuffed herself. We can't thank you enough!! Food - 3/5. Expect your local teriyaki house level food. My mi goreng didn't taste anything like mi goreng I'm used to, but it was a good Japanese yakisoba. It reminded me of an old Japanese restaurant in used to go with my late grandma. Their chicken stir fry was pretty good too. If you require a lot of protein though, we'd recommend you to double the meat. Avocado bomb reminded me of my college year. It's a yummy spicy tuna stuffed avocado tempura. If this restaurant was in a bigger town or city, I'd probably rate it 2.5/3, but it's a 4 star filled with nice staff in this small town. Overall, we'd come back here if we ever pass this little town again. :) read more

Amazingly awesome food. I can not believe we had such good tasting food here but we did. I almost skipped on this place until I read a few reviews and they sold me on it. The server was friendly, attentive and knew his menu well. Most servers struggle with that i have found but not him. Yea some called it a hole in the wall but it was beyond that. If baited on looks alone you'd is it up but do not. The food was so flavorful and plenty of it as well. We well be back here next time I'm Grants Pass read more

Excellent food and the best service possible. G'day who helped us was so awesome, kind and attentive. Highly recommended coming here for the awesome Indonesian food. read more

Food: 5/5 Service: 5/5 Ambiance:5/5 Not going to lie I had my doubts about this place when I pulled up outside... I thought I was going to get an American bar that served heated up frozen Asian food to pass as an Asian Tapas spot... instead the food reminded me of my short trip to Bali not too long ago! Food is prepped in the open kitchen and served hot and fresh to order. The avocado bomb is a must try. I also ordered the mi goreng which was very flavorful although a bit mushy and oily but I found it oddly addicting... the salt and pepper calamari were a nice starter and there was plentiful shrimp in the order of honey walnut shrimp. read more

Yummy food. Asian flair! Nice bartender. Full bar with craft cocktails. Very casual! We recommend. read more

Cool bar with quite a few veggie options. I really enjoyed my curry. Take out was simple and they are open fairly late.

I've always wanted to stop by here and found it to be pleasant and comfortable. However my meal was very disappointing while my friends enjoyed their choices. Since I'm on a low carb diet, noodles and/or rice were out of the question so I chose an expensive bowl of wonton soup. $16 for a mediocre bowl of soup was outrageous. The broth was delicious as were the vegetables. The smal slices of beef and chicken were chewy and relatively tasteless, especially since the "pork" wontons obliterated all other flavors because they were so full of ginger they wiped out my palate for the rest of my day. Also, the wonton skins were thick and chewy. I would possibly order the soup again but without the wontons. There was no evidence of pork in them, instead it tasted like they were stuffed with ground ginger root. Tough, chewy and overbearing. The portions for my friends' dishes were generous and they both felt they enjoyed their meals. I would recommend visiting for the friendly atmosphere and interesting "mocktails." read more

The food was great. Service was excellent and the staff were so friendly and on top of things. The place itself is very nice. Not crowded or noisy. read more

I am always skeptical bars having good food, but the instant you open the door you're hit with all the smells of fantastic food. We're returning customers and every time the food has been amazing. Service was prompt, efficient and genuine. Pineapple juice was delicious. We ordered appetizers and two mains. Honey walnut shrimp was crispy with the perfect level of sweet. The Raman had a rich broth with lots of veggies and chicken. 10/10 will return read more

Everything here was great! From ambience to friendly staff, full bar, and a menu unlike anything else in town.

How'd I end up here... A big part of my work requires a lot of travel and on this particular night, we were on our way up from Eureka California to Eugene Oregon. Its dinner time and we were not gonna settle for another fast food drive through, hell nah. So we took to Yelping. First thing you'll notice when you get into Grants Pass is that for dinner, you better look to eat before 8pm because your options start getting thin after that. Good news is Taroko is there and they're open till Midnight! What did we eat? - Crab Cheese Puffs 4/5 stars - gyozas 4/5 stars - Beef Stir Fry 5/5 stars - Opur Curry 5/5 stars This place, the Chef, the service, all go above and beyond. Portions are exactly what you want and expect for the price. Flavors and execution of the dishes we ordered were perfect. Crab puffs, man these were slammin. I can only think of crab cheese rangoons that I had in Seattle's Pike Place Market that are comparable. Beef was nice and tender not chewy and the broccoli which accompanied were fresh and cooked perfectly. The curry I will not even attempt to describe. It's unfortunate that I will only be able to enjoy this curry when I'm in Grants Pass because when I crave curry, I will always think of the Opur Curry I had here. Taroko and the staff, thank you and I'll def be dining whenever I'm in town read more

I remember the food was great but the service was extraordinary. We will for sure return. read more

Food was subpar. Vegetables didn't taste or look fresh. Curry was salty and the flavor of allspice overpowered the dish. Ordered a beef dish as well and the meat was overcooked and tough. Interior is also lacking. Not enough sound-absorbing materials so the space is very echoey and the overall interior feels cold and sparse. Would highly recommend working with an interior designer to create a better interior environment. Service was friendly and checked in frequently. Very attentive and kind waitstaff. read more

Really fun place with awesome food and drinks! We stayed in Grants Pass for the night and needed just a quick bite. After leaving a place just a couple blocks away because it was extremely understaffed, we stumbled into Tarokos Asian Tapas Bar and are so glad we did! The menu had a variety of craft cocktails that were superbly made. We had three small bites, pork pot stickers, coconut chicken and corn fritters. Each dish impressed us! Nothing was greasy! The food felt fresh and lots of flavors. We wish we lived closer because this would for sure be on our regular schedule. Service was fast and professional and friendly! Excellent all around! read more

my chicken skewer was undercooked and i went into the back of the restaurant to throw up after my meal was over so that i wouldn't get salmonella in a couple days. the Indonesian beef dish used low quality beef - it tasted like stew meat. read more

This place surely isn't a hidden gem to the people that live in town. But to folks passing through, what a completely unexpected and lovely surprise! Great, inventive cuisine that somehow feels inspired by the authentic yet accessible to the masses. Friendly service. Fun little space. Strong recommendation! read more

I love that they have gf honey walnut shrimp. They have a lot of items that can be modified. The avocado bombs are super good too, a little pricey for the portion but worth a try for sure. We felt very cool going here as we were pretty much older then everyone but the service is fantastic so if we were out of place, we didn't feel it. read more

First of all, the service by everyone was welcoming, warm, friendly, and sweet. These folks clearly enjoy being together and working here. The ambiance was 'dive bar'. The food was ALL fried, which is NOT how Michael and I typically eat but it was a Monday and almost every place was closed. We had the J-pop, which was very tasty but fried. We ordered the calamari. It was very good but fried. Michael had the potstickers which he enjoyed. I didn't eat any of those but I LOVED the Asian dipping sauce that came with them. Yummmmm! We had the chicken satay with peanut sauce. I adore warm peanut sauce but this particular peanut sauce did NOT taste like peanut sauce. The chicken wasn't particularly tasty either. We wouldn't order that again. I ordered the hot watermelon margie. NOT delicious but I needed it to swallow the fried food. It didn't have any real watermelon in it. It had a really nasty-tasting liqueur called watermelon pucker. Disgusting -- according to my tastebuds. And it wasn't hot. All in all, my husband and I had an adventure. We aren't going to choose to have that adventure again but it served the purpose this time. I imagine a lot of youngsters really enjoy this place. Good for you! And may all the folks who work here be blessed! read more

This is one of my favorite restaurants in town. The front of the house staff is always very attentive and friendly. The food is amazing and the drinks are perfect. BUT tonight I witnessed a very inappropriate interaction between one of the cooks and our bartender. She was yelling profanities and being very loud. It was very unprofessional and uncomfortable. read more

Only great things to say about this place. Our food was perfectly tasty!! Many great flavors. We tried 4 different dishes. No criticism here... Drinks were very tasty.

love the poke bowls ! such a fun spot lovely atmosphere friendly staff and beautiful and delicious food

Wow, we drifted into Grant's Pass around 8:30pm and we were all hungry. This was the only place open after 9p. We expected the middle of the road, but had four great meals. Service was friendly and fast. We had a Ttuna Poke, Street Noodle soup, Salt and Pepper Calamari, and Singapore Noodles. We left with nothing to take back to our rooms. We will be back someday. Worth the stop to us. read more

I've been here a couple time & have been pleasantly surprised both visits. I like the clean, somewhat stark interior. The cement bar top has a good feel. They use cloth napkins & real chopsticks, which really pleases me that they aren't disposable . ***Please switch to paper instead of plastic straws & I'll happily bump my review up to five stars*** The service has been very good at both the bar by myself and at a table with a few other diners. Their food is delicious. Not a huge menu, but what they offer is very good. Their selection of beer, wine & spirits is nice. I've tried a couple signature cocktails, which were excellent. They have two happy hours (4-6 & 10-close, which is midnight every day of the week) with food & drink specials. I'm very happy to have such a great spot for late night dining. read more

It doesn't look like much from the outside.... And doesn't look like much stepping in the door BUT the food is really really good and the service is fast and friendly. We shared a bowl of wonton soup and a plate of noodles with tofu. The soup broth was rich and tasty and full of perfectly cooked beef, chicken , tasty wontons, broccoli and mushrooms. The rice noodle dish had a perfect hint of curry. Clean, healthy and tasty. Friendly service and good food read more
