The chicken fried steak was freshly battered, golden brown, hot & delicious. The mashed potatoes, gravy, macaroni & cheese were delightful. Pancakes, maple syrup & hash browns cooked to perfection exceeding expectations all the way. Opportunities were with atmosphere & facility upkeep. Tim’s Kitchen needs attention to seat cover repairs & its restroom door with some gray paint in the men’s room to keep pace with, & compete effectively against, national chains. Music choice was nice, upbeat, universally appealing & service was outstanding.

We had been wanting to try this spot for a while and it was awesome! We went for a Sunday afternoon brunch and we're seat right away. Service was very attentive and we appreciated their patience with our 3 kiddos! Kids ordered the mac and cheese and fries, one loved it, the other thought it was just okay. Overall great experience, there's literally something for everyone! Prices were great too, can't wait to come back soon!

My cousin and I visited Tim’s Kitchen for lunch today and had a very nice lunch. The parking lot and restaurant were clean and well maintained. The staff were incredibly friendly and attentive. They have such an expansive menu and offered breakfast around lunchtime. I ordered the chicken bacon avocado sandwich with macaroni and cheese and she ordered the chicken strips with steak fries. The steak fries in honey mustard were to die for! My sandwich was filling, great value for the price. They had a salad bar, I always appreciate a place with a salad bar. Overall very good restaurant and I would recommend!

Tim's Kitchen is a must try spot for your dine in breakfast diner. The food there is amazing and delicious! I highly recommend the French toast with strawberries and of course, the breakfast sandwhich. The waitress that was attending to us always made sure we were good on drinks and if we needed anything else (condiments, extra orders, or drink top-off) she was also very nice. When we were there, it was very quiet and not noisy. I only wish the little toy train was running around the place. Overall, Tim's kitchen is a place you got to take the family out to grub at or just go in there and satisfy your Breakfast cravings. They have a ton of breakfast items to choose from, I am for sure coming back to try out more items from the menu. Keep up the good work and amazing cooking Tim's kitchen.

My first time at this local, second time to Tim's. The chicken fried pork chop breakfast was solid (with CREAM gravy, yass!), but I think their chicken fried steak is still the best in the area. Friendly server and attentive service (never let my coffee cup go empty). Will be back!

Taylor was our waiter. Very professional, polite , and detail oriented. We arrived at 1800 hours. Food was fresh, flavorful, and ready in a timely manner. The experience was great. Like visiting the grandparents home that could actually cook lol. Only bad thing was the older guy sitting behind us. Who seemed to bully his wife the entire visit. Total Ahole however moderately entertaining lol. To stay on topic this place gets a 5 star for me. Portions were large and prices were small. Will visit again. Well don’t Tim’s kitchen in Puyallup!

Every time I drive past Tim's I get this burning desire to pull in and eat breakfast. This has become my go to spot when I want some good home cooked breakfast. I've been here several times and when we get visitors from out of state we always eat at Tim's. First, the service is amazing. Everyone employee has been great and attentive. I have never asked for a refill but my drink is always full. We had 1 minor mix up and they handled it quickly. 5 stars is not enough. The food here is killer. It's hot and fresh, the servings are big, and it has always tasted great. My go to meal is the cardinal with pancakes and my wife likes the same thing with french toast. If your in the area and want great service and good food, you should swing by.
