There were three of us dining in together today and we decided to order the Garlic Parmesan Fries to share! These were absolutely delicious and served on such a large platter. Perfect item to share. I ordered the Cookie Butter Chai Latte and Split Decision Sampler (pearl sugar and southern waffle, two eggs and choice of bacon or pork sausage). My boyfriend ordered the Bergamot London Fog. I didn't take a picture of the food he ordered, but it was one of the specialty eggs entrees. I was a little underwhelmed by my entree choice, however it was still good. I didn't want to be too stuffed, so it was a good choice overall. The service was great. Super friendly and energetic staff working, which made it a great experience. We were quite fortunate to arrive at a time where it wasn't too busy where we had a long wait to be seated!

There's also a whimsical chandelier made out of small cast iron skillets. Cute, I've never seen a chandelier like that before. I had a breakfast plate with pancakes that were just right. Not too sweet, not dry. The bacon was especially good, and everything else on the plate hit the mark. Coffee was decent. My husband went with the eggs benedict and was happy with it. We both left full and satisfied. The dining area isn't spotless. You can tell it could use a deeper clean in some corners. That said, our table was clean, and the food and service made up for it. Overall, a step up from the usual chain spots like IHOP or Denny's. We'd come back.

The burritos are a good size for the price, and it comes with a side of salsa. They have different burrito and sandwich types - sausage, bacon, egg, etc. The staff is friendly and was quick with our order. This coffee shop has a lot of variety that will keep us coming back!

Since this is a popular place in Gig Harbor you can expect a long wait on a sunny day, but staff do a great job of turning tables and getting everyone seated as promptly as possible. So don't let the line deter you from going here-trust me, it's worth it to be patient for this one!

The lads enjoyed their food served up by bright and smiling wait staff. Netshed No. 9's location on the water - especially on such a bright and sunny day - provides a perfect PNW dining experience on their deck. My cup of clam chowder was enjoyable although the small cubes of potatoes outnumbered clams. The Chop Chop Chicken salad was lovely, especially the ample and freshly grilled chicken along with diced fresh tomatoes, blue cheese, hard salami, hard smoked mozzarella atop a bed of nicely dressed mixed greens. I'll state my personal preference for romaine lettuce but that did not deter me from being a member of the clean-plate club. If the weather is cooperating, this is a great venue for a lunch with friends.

My son and I have stopped by a few times now, and we've enjoyed our drinks each time. We've mostly stuck with milk teas, so I can't really speak for the rest of the menu, but the ones we've tried have been tasty (usually taro and thai tea). I wouldn't say the tea itself is particularly high quality or anything that will blow your mind, but it does the job when you're craving a casual milk tea. The tapioca boba has always had the texture it should: nice and chewy without being too hard or mushy, so no complaints there i guess. I also really like that they have stamp cards. I'm a sucker for a loyalty card because it gives me more incentive to stop by whenever I happen to be in Gig Harbor. The shop itself is pretty small, with just a few seats inside, but it usually hasn't been too busy whenever we've visited. There's also a kiosk you can order from. In general, Pearl Tea is a reliable 4-star boba spot for me. Nothing fancy or life-changing, but the drinks are good, the boba is properly chewy, and I would stop by again when I'm in the area.

There is outside patio seating available, and some indoor seating but it is a pretty small building. The staff were friendly and quick with my order. The portions are solid here! My husband and I ordered the super gyro sandwich, one each, and shared a side of rice and a Greek salad. We both ate half our sandwich and saved the rest for lunch the next day. Everything was delicious and cooked well. I was impressed with the Greek salad to-go size, too! So many restaurants give a lame small portion for salad, but Ikonos hooked it up and it was definitely shareable. If we weren't already stuffed enough, we finished off dinner with baklava for dessert. One order comes with two pieces, just a perfect light sweet treat to end a meal. Make it a point to stop by if you're shopping in the grocery plaza, you won't be disappointed!

Our waiter, Mark, was incredibly attentive -- checking in regularly, keeping drinks topped off, and making sure we had everything we needed without ever feeling rushed. Exactly the kind of hospitality that makes a meal memorable. We started with the Guacamole Sampler -- Traditional, Carlito's Way, and Austin Style -- served with warm housemade chips and their signature salsa. Every style had its own personality, and the flavors were spot‑on across the board. A fantastic way to kick off the meal. For my entrée, I went with the Seasonal Al Pastor Tamales, and wow... this dish is a true taste of the south. The ancho, guajillo, and achiote citrus slow‑roasted pork was rich and tender, perfectly balanced by cumin black beans, pickled pineapple, white onion, and serrano salsa. Every bite had depth, heat, and brightness. My wife ordered the Smoked Chicken Tomatillo Soup -- hominy, red bell peppers, carrots, onions, chipotle, buttermilk crema, cilantro, and blue corn tortilla strips. Served with fresh housemade sopes, it was comforting, flavorful, and beautifully layered. A perfect bowl for any season. We also shared the Navajo Fry Bread -- honestly, this should be listed under desserts. Warm, soft, slightly sweet, and absolutely delicious. The overall vibe was relaxed and inviting. It can get a bit noisy -- especially for someone like me who's hard of hearing -- but the energy is still warm and enjoyable. Cactus never disappoints. From the kitchen to the front‑of‑house, the team consistently delivers great food, great service, and a great experience. Hats off to the cooks and staff for another fantastic visit. We'll definitely be back.
