Reviews for Pimienta | Bistro and Bar in Federal Way, WA
Really tasty, creative plates here at this restaurant. It is pricey but it is high quality. It is a small, intimate place with... only a dozen or so tables. Pleasant staff. The only knock is the comfort of some tables. Bench seating against the wall isn’tthe comfiest way to eat and you are very close to other patrons. By no means is this a reason not to enjoy the artistic culinarycreations here. Read more
Just had the most amazing meal at this sweet little gem on the border of Federal Way and NE Tacoma. Spanish night as part of... their "Dinners around the World" once a month series. Not to miss! But their whole menu is exquisite. Delicioso! Read more
Yummmm. First time here. Loved it. Good drinks. Great service. Really yummy food.
Hidden gem! Rustic elegance and sophisticated cuisine. Our hostess/server was on the spot as we chose our own table. Decor is... creative and fun, colors and textures are earthy. We were struck by the cutlery and glassware, thoughtfully chosen and unique.Our cocktails were fancy, delicious! The rustic bread accompanied by a dish of balsamic and melting butter was divine. By now Iwas feeling a French/European influence for sure. Food presentation gets high marks. I had the scallops over polenta cakes witha sauce, the flavors and textures all came together nicely. We left satisfied, happy and in awe of this little place we see allthe time, in an unlikely spot. It is on the more expensive side, but worth it and a great local place! Read more
Google hours of operation are wrong. Indicated they opened today (Tues) @ 4pm but door indicates 4:30 pm. Happy Hour is no... longer honored due to restrictions per waiter per the owners???? I have no idea what that means but we chose this location forour Anniversary and were disappointed in the staff not honoring what is advertised online! However, the Lamb, Ahi Tuna Entreesas well as Strawberry Shortcake desert was excellent. Read more
Very nice little restaurant! To me A Bistro is more like a Cafe, this is more like a fancy restaurant. For a Cafe this place is... expensive but for a nice restaurant this place is reasonable. They have a relatively new chef, so the menu has changed some. Ihad the linguini (excellent), I also had their Rustic Bread, that was amazing. They don't show a dessert menu because it changesall the time. You want to save room for dessert. Well worth the drive to Federal Way. Read more
You know when you find that little niche, that hidden gem? This place is that spot. The owner's son was tending bar and serving... amazing drinks. He and the other server ran the floor with Grace. The food was unique and eloquently executed. This is a spot togo for date night. And the ambience and decor is wonderful as well. Thankful we couldn't get in to our usual restaurant, thiswas a serendipitous experience and we will definitely be back. Read more
