“ Don’t let this restaurant get past you! This is the 2nd time I’ve eaten here and tonight it was with my hubby and we were celebrating our 14th anniversary. Evan was our waiter tonight and he was great! We started with the olive tapanade for a starter and the French Orchard cocktail and the Grapefruit something. DELISH! For mains hubbs had the flat iron steak and I had the chefs special which was grilled octopus and shrimp over creamy polenta. FABULOUS! Dessert was the apple bread pudding. STELLAR! I cannot recommend West 122 enough! You won’t regret it. ”
“ Excellent food and great ambience. Sarah took very good care of our table. The chicken dish is delicious. And LOVE the crispy brussels. ”
“ Absolutely fantastic experience. The food was delicious and the service was top notch. We got the spaghetti and meatballs (fresh, herbaceous, and authentic), and the chicken with cider pan jus (perfectly crispy skin on the chicken, creamy potatoes, and so flavorful). We also highly recommend the apple fritter bread pudding - it was so good, seriously on another level. We will be coming back for sure! ”
“ We really liked it here. They had a seared halibut on special and it was cooked so well, really very good. Our server was really nice. We were seated in a quiet atmosphere in the back. The white bean dip appetizer was surprisingly really tatsy, a lil more than we anticipated. The flavors were nicely balanced - a few more pieces of crostini with it would be nice. Overall, happy we came. Bathrooms were very clean. ”
“ Great place to celebrate my friend’s birthday who requested steak for his birthday! The waiter was great, and the food was delicious and prepared exactly as ordered! ”
“ Great food and drinks. I had the pork chop and a few sides that were excellent! Bring cash with you as they were about to charge us 6 as a processing fee to pay with a card. ”
“ If ever there was a time to give 6 stars, this is it. This place is absolutely amazing. By far the best signature cocktail I have ever had. From the citrus and fruit perfectly paired to the egg white on top damn near whipped to a meringue. The pork chop was over the top! Texture of a dry aged filet, flavor out of this world! Perfectly cooked greens, masterfully creamy polenta....Smoked chicken was crispy yet melted in your mouth. Artfully seasoned, and accompanied by the most decadent whipped potatoes. I've been to every upscale restaurant in Tacoma. West 122 Is by far the best there is. ”
“ Absolutely amazing. Great drinks. The chicken was cooked perfectly and the pork chop had the texture of a dry age filet. Phenomenal food. Relaxing atmosphere. Will definitely be going back!!! ”
