Pimienta | Bistro and Bar - (Near Federal Way, WA)

5 /5 Kelly Miller: Came here as a party of five with a reservation and they sat us a little early. Service was very attentive and nice. The water was never empty. I had the spiced pork chop and it was well flavored, the Brussels were cooked perfectly and the polenta was the star of the meal. I had a guava lemonade and it was slightly spicy with the tejin. The cream brulee was flavorful. No gluten free menu but lots of options and they said they could make adjustments as well.

5 /5 J Hill: One of the best dining experiences I’ve ever had. The food felt like a privilege to enjoy with each dish crafted with care and packed with flavor. From the warm, welcoming Chef to the beautiful and inviting atmosphere, Pimienta Bistro and Bar delivers excellence in both food and service. Truly a gem

5 /5 Kraig Fisher: This was our first time here. We came with 3 friends. They had all our favorite wine and great food. We will be back.

2 /5 Ivan Mukomol: I dont leave reviews often, but I will here. I believe this place is extreme overpriced for the food they offer. My New York tasted as it was just removed from the freezer. Completely void of flavor for $45. They took it back which I swapped for a burger. Burger was very plain and dry, worse than a joint. Their prices are high for the very low quality food they serve. Plain as that.

1 /5 Solomon Hong: I regret not reviewing negative reviews before visiting the place for our anniversary. Our group ordered several appetizers and main dishes for each. You should expect a long waiting time when a lady runs the entire show. You should expect hunger after your dinner when most food costs $40+ before tax or tips are so low. Some of the main dishes were even smaller than a typical appetizer. For example, I am attaching a dinner menu ‘Pan Seared Scallops’ $43 before tax. After the dinner, we went to another restaurant when we were starving. Because I dont feel its worth spending more time on the review, and our experience totally agrees with a past review. Let me copy it. I’ll be honest, looked at the reviews and was really excited to try this place. But it’s way over hyped. Me and my wife arrived and they gave us a table to a group that was loud so the whole time we listened to them. They only had one person who was all three - serving, hostess and bar tender. When we ask what was good it was a basic reply of everything is good. We ordered calamari and truffle fries as an appetizer and the calamari where cold and mushy, the fries with “truffle” where also cold and had shaved cheese not a lot of flavor, we ordered soup ahead of time and asked if it was ready becouse we where starving and ask to bring it before the meal and we got it as the meal and it was cold. The only thing that was good was the Mac and cheese. My wife ordered the stew and it was cold and we decided to leave with the plate full and the waitress did not even ask if it was okay. Will not be coming back
