We have been dining at Indochine for a number of years only to be interrupted by covid. We recently dined there for my wife's birthday and did see a slimmed down menu thanks to supply chain issues. But, the food was the same high quality, and expertly prepared. In our opinion, the is one of the best restaurants in the region if not the state and the prices are within a reasonable range. As a sample, we had coconut prawns and fresh spring rolls for an appetizer- both were perfectly prepared. Our entrees included Drunken beef noodles, basil curry seafood and galangal chicken soup- all scrumptious. Followed by a tasty dessert of mango sticky rice and chocolate cake with raspberry gelato. Again, all perfectly prepared. We very much enjoyed our meal and highly recommend Indochine in Tacoma.

Disappointing on many levels even taking into account this was Sunday evening and probably not their A team on staff. Sesame chicken roll-ups appetizer was very good. My wife enjoyed her jungle curry, but my calamari was wanting in both flavor and preparation, more like a second appetizer than main entree. Service was inattentive, sporadic. Music just a little too loud to carry on conversation and detracted from ambience. Could call it just an off night, but we probably won't be back.

We went here for a milestone birthday. We we had a party of 12. We were placed in a private room which was great. It was quiet and had a great ambiance. Our waiter was nice you could tell she was a little overwhelmed, but she did good. The food was okay. The fried spring rolls were a little dry and the rice tasted better warmed upon day two. Besides that we enjoyed ourselves.

We were greeted and seated promptly and given the choice of two locations, both nice, drink order was taken in a timely manner and arrived quickly. Server was on top of recommendations and quickly caught an error in one of the dishes when it was being placed on the table. We kept the mix up at no charge and were quickly given the corrected order. Serving size was huge, cocktails great and would return again. We've been many times and had read the recent reviews, almost didn't return, but we were not disappointed in any way. Sesame Chicken (and tofu option) with pancakes (on the appetizer menu) is a must!

The food was delicious and the serving size was very generous. The servers were knowledgeable and attentive but not intrusive. Making our reservation on line was very easy. The only downside was the extremely loud volume of the music. Between the music and two tables of happy diners we had difficulty conversing. But we definitely will return.

We were seated right away. The table was covered with spilled goo, but had been set with clean plates and utensils. When the server came with water, we asked her to please wipe off the table, showing her the napkin we had wiped the goo with. She seemed unhappy to be asked to do that. After haphazardly wiping off the table we waited for at least ten minutes before anyone else came to our table. This person said he would normally be our server but had been told to go home. When he found out no one had come to take our orders he checked into it. Soon a young lady came to take our drink orders. Meanwhile, several others customers had been seated and served. The rest of the meal went okay. They were just very unorganized in the beginning. The food was very good, but I would not return to this restaurant.

We were told our waiters name was Edgar by another employee and he was absolutely amazing!!! My whole table was so impressed by his service and his willingness to check all the items to make sure they fit my dietary restrictions. It was my 21st birthday and he brought me a lemon drop shot at the end which was wonderful! He also helped our whole table with decisions on making drinks and was very knowledgeable. If this server hasn’t gotten a raise - he needs one! We have amazing leftovers and cheers to the kitchen staff for the beautiful display and food. I will absolutely continue to come back for events and special days!

The food quality is much less consistent than before. You can tell they’re trying to cut costs and pre-prep as much as possible rather than preparing at the time of order. Our server made us feel rushed. We were celebrating a big event and talking and giving gifts while enjoying our drinks. She interrupted us 3 times in 10 minutes to see if we were ready to order. Halfway through the meal she asked if we would want boxes for leftovers and then brought them to us with the check before we had even finished eating. No offer to box things up like they used to. No patience in letting us enjoy our meal. My curry lacked flavor. Rice or naan is now an extra fee. How do you serve curry and charge extra for rice? My wife’s yin/yang ahi salad (her favorite) came to her on a cutting board with barely seared, very thin tuna sashimi lying flat on the wood with a salad in a separate bowl rather than the usual beautifully prepared presentation with the wasabi aioli. Based on this experience, I doubt we’ll be back anytime soon despite this being our previous go-to destination for special events.
