La Cà Bar

Gathered with a few friends at La Ca Bar, which serves Vietnamese street food located on 6th Ave in Tacoma. We sat upstairs in the bar area and had great service from the the bartender and other staff members. Our drink choices included delicious from-scratch margaritas, and beer from a well-rounded selection. I would go back just for the margarita! Opting for items from the Happy Hour menu, which lasts until 6pm, we enjoyed beautifully presented Spring Rolls with a tasty peanut sauce, featuring lettuce, pork, shrimp, and basil. The beef skewers offered a unique twist with finely minced meat threaded onto the skewer in a lemongrass marinade. Both items were delicious and I am looking forward to returning to try additional menu items, such as the pho, which is supposed to be one of the best in town.

I just ordered To go for me and my pregnant fiancé. I ordered a meatball pho and side grilled chicken leg to go along with my fried rice. When I arrived back at the hospital I opened the containers and there was no grilled chicken leg or meatballs. Instead we received raw bloody meat and chicken teriyaki.My fiancé was not able to eat the meat at all because the broth was not hot enough upon opening our food.Me and her always love to dine in but the to go experience was not great tonight, and unfortunate as that is what she was craving the most.I tried to reach out via email but it was not able to send and was kicked back.

My favorite vietnamese spot in tacoma hands down. Good veggie menu. My favs are the veggie pho, tofu spring rolls, and tofu banh mi.

My son had never had pho before. I'd say he enjoyed his first order. Also got the #32 fried rice. It was wonderful with shrimp and sausage. The grilled pork banh mi was also excellent. Really good fresh food here. Great place!

3.5 stars for my rating When we arrived for happy hour and right before dinner rush so no one else was there so we got seated right away. There was only one server running the floor and service could've been better - to be fair we were the only customer for about 30 mins so it's not like it was busy but we would have a hard time trying to get their attention, get our questions answered and it felt very rushed to get our orders in.We ordered:nam nướng and salmon fresh rolls - wasn't bad pretty good, I love that they add extra crisps to the Nam nướng rollsbánh xèo - love how fresh and crispy it wasbánh mì thịt nướng - delicious bánh bột lọc - delicious as wellOverall everything was good and food came out fairly quickly. Definitely over priced for sure even during happy hour for 25% off on certain appetizers so the deal wasn't that great when you gotta order a drink as well for it to count.

I came in during a "me time" day. It was later in the evening and I wanted a glass of wine and fresh rolls, so naturally this was a viable option. The ambiance was laid back but clean. Good music and good wine. I got the Chicken pho and fresh rolls and they were delightful. The service was attentive, although as a solo diner I don't require much lol. I'll definitely be back

One of my top faves in tacoma! They ran out of the chicken thigh but offered wings instead. It worked out well! I love the rice, so full of flavor and everything just goes so well together. The service was GREAT! Always so friendly and attentive.

10/10I stumbled on this place while exploring the area, and it did not disappoint. I ate upstairs on the rooftop, which made for a beautiful open-air experience. The service was just okay. There was only one bartender, and he was working the whole upstairs area and the outside, so he was stretched thin. As a result, all requests had to be made at the bar directly, which was a bit inconvenient. I ordered the five spice mule, hue city dumplings and five spice wings. Everything was so fresh, and the authentic Vietnamese flavors burst through. La Ca is an awesome bar with great food and I highly recommend it if you're in the downtown Tacoma area.

My favorite cuisine is Vietnamese and I will tell you this has been the best Vietnamese food I have had in Washington so far. Some of the items on the menu had familiar items with unique twists! It was very refreshing to try. It was nice that they had separated seating upstairs for the bar and downstairs for people who may not want to be at a bar. We went on a Tuesday and the service was fast for only having several staff members there

First let me just say that if you're looking for an authentic traditionally prepared Vietnamese meal, then La ca Bar is NOT the place to be. Don't get me wrong ... the food they do serve here is fairly tasty and pretty good. It's just the flavors (and sometimes the spice/heat) have been toned-down quite a bit, and also key ingredients are not found in some of their menu items ... most notable example being their Bun Bo Hue. That being said, their Banh Mi is very good.Anyway, the service was friendly. The restaurant's ambiance reminds me that of a tavern / sports bar, but it was also relatively quiet and very clean. The prices are a bit high when compared to most other better Vietnamese restaurants in the south sound region. While there are some parking out front, during peak hours finding a place to park can be a bit problematic.
