What's that mean? It means Come for Dinner!

In trying to find us restaurants, I and friends found Bev's Cucina. This little Italian restaurant is in the heart of old Kent. Our dinner was wonderful and we had great service. They do not have a website but their menu does have something for everyone! They have pasta, chicken, pork & seafood. (I don't remember seeing beef, sorry). Prices are from $10 - $15 and they have beer and wine. Jorge is very accommodating and upon request, will modify a dish (to point).

There is street parking, which I believe is free at that time of night and some in the back. Jorge said it would be ok to park in the other business spots because they will be closed.

PLEASE READ - This is a mom & pop restaurant, so PLEASE only say yes if you're going to show up. I need to give a definate number by July 29th because he will be bringing on an extra person and buying additional food for our group. There has been a lot of no shows and last minute cancellations/yes to no changes. This puts me and the group on the spot and it's not a comfortable place to be.

DISCLAIMER - This may be harsh but IF there is people on a waiting list and you have been a no show or changed your yes to no within 72 hours of an event, TWICE in the past 4 months, I WILL BUMP YOU FOR A
PERSON(S) ON THE WAITING LIST.

Hey everyone....time to experience some Island food and music!! I didn't get a chance to try their food but the atmosphere is right out of the Islands, and the food smelled great! Check the web site for the menu. Every thing looks good. And the prices seem pretty fair.

On Friday nights, the place has Hawaiian music, might be a good idea to stick around after dinner.

Plenty of parking since it is located in the strip mall North/behind Red Lobster and Ivars in Federal Way.

Wear your Hawaiian shirts and hula skirts. Let's start the summer off with a party!!!

Hope to see a large group there!!!! But please don't RSVP "YES" unless you can make it....we have experienced alot of "no Shows" at the last couple of events and this causes some problems. #1...the creditability of the of this group. When I talk to the restuarant owner and tell them 20 people, the owners put on extra staff to support us. #2...some members would like to attend but if the event is full they get put on a waiting list. If "you" don't cancel/change your RSVP 5 days before the event date this leaves the "waiting List" people frustrated. #3...I don't like it!!! I personally check out the places I schedule and usually talk to the owners/managers. I brag up our group so "no shows" makes ME look bad....so if you RSVP "Yes" please make every effort to be there. Thanks for your support.....Jan

This little restaurant has very good food and the servers are accomodating. I've had a lot of their dishes and it's always been very good. They have chicken, beef, pork & shrimp preapared in the usual saute or stir-fry method with hotness ratings of 0 to 4!! . They don't have a website but if you email me, I will email you the menu. Parking near the door is tight but there is a big lot available.

They're easy to find. They're in the shopping area across the street from Costco. They sit near/behind Fat Burger and The Rock Pizza.

At popular request, we are going back to Cafe Kolos. located at 23623 104th Ave S.E. Kent Washington 98031; telephone number 253-852-1007.

The members ate here last fall and had an exceptional experience. The food was really good and the service was outstanding. When I made the reservation, they remembered our group.

There is not a web site so if any of our members that have eaten at this restuarant would share their experience with all the members, I think that will help describe some of the menu items. The prices are really good, actually inexpensive.

Hi all....I found a location for us to experience great Thai food. I checked out the restaurant and here is a run down on what I observed:

Lots of parking in the back. The main door is also located in the back. As you walk in you will be greeted by wood carved elephants and Asian decor. I reserved the "Thai room" which is a raised area with canopy, curtains and four tables in the main dining area. These table are about a foot off the floor so we sit on cushions and our feet "dangle" in a pit under each table. Since we sit on cushions, there is no back support. Anyone who thinks this may be a problem can ask to sit at a regular table. Six people can sit at each table.

There is a web site which provides a review of the menu, some pictures of the "Thai room" and directions to the restaurant. There were no prices listed so I snagged a Take Out menu, so here is a run down:
appetizers, wraps and rolls: $8.95 to $11.95. satays, soup, salad: $8.95 to $16.95. Entrees: $10.95 to $12.95. Seafood entrees: $13.95 to $17.95. noodles, curry, rice: $9.95 to $16.95. specials: $11.95 to $24.95. The web site is: www.indochinefederalway.com

If any one has eaten here, please give me a review of your experience. This looks like a great way to start the New Year. Hope to see you there!!!!
