The Torch Grill

Pretty average food, ok service, and the venue itself is tiny, unmemorable, and a bit depressing. They don’t accept the member card for discounts so that makes the overall cost-​performance unattractive. I’d skip this restaurant and order the ny steak at blackfish for few bucks more to get better food and experience.

Unexpectedly fine dining in a cheesy smokey hideous casino.
Come for the really neat food, good service, and varied menu. lots of awesome beer on tap. The prices are super reasonable.
Don’t bother gambling, a waste of time and money.

I normally wouldn’t eat at a place like this due to my having multiple food allergies/​sensitivities. I give five stars for the level of customer service and care to what was safe for me to eat. Our waitress took a lot of time checking and double checking with kitchen staff before I ordered. I went with the phad thai with shrimp, which for the price of about $ 15.99, was too much even though there were about five jumbo shrimp in the dish. The poor quality of the food here was unlike any Thai dish I’ve ever had. It tasted more like what I’d imagine a university dining hall or Denny’s would be serving. It was like going from the nasty of the majority of people smoking and drinking in the casino to the trying to be a fancy restaurant option behind glass doors and a water fountain. The phad thai was much too salty… so salty I didn’t even bother finishing it. The salad was perfectly good. There weren’t any dessert options for me here. This restaurant clearly did not think of the people with Celiac, gluten allergies, gluten sensitivities, dairy-​free, soy-​free, etc. when planning the menu… and why would they in Tulalip? It’s not that people travel to their casino from all over. My recommendation is that they invest in some gluten-​free Tamari for their Asian dishes.

Looking for a late night tasty meal? You should take the initiative and check out this option! Food is typically on point, and prices are even better!
To top it off, I have a tendency to drop a $ 10 on the roulette table and usually pays for my meal from the wins!

They were right on … taking our order and serving us in a timely manner. We went there because of the Unilocal rating and we were not disappointed.

torch has great monthly specials. recently had a primerib grinder-​which said sliced prime rib-​it had big chunks not sliced-​very awkward to eat. good housemade potato salad though. and one of the only places that has salisbury steak. they dont give senior discounts, but prices are very reasonable esp. breakfast which is served all day. great strong coffee too

1^st time there tonight at 7pm. Wasn’t to busy. It took 50 to get our food. When finished it took 30 min to pick up our bill W/​card for payment. They all seemed rude

I love this place. Their garlic appetizer is so good, can’t say enough about it. Service is a miss but the food makes up for it. Forgot to mention the seafood, it’s amazing.

My food was poisoned by Diana the older waitress with blonde hair! i have never been so disgusted in my life.
its either the waitress or the cook, what makes me suspect is because when she went to serve my soup she said ‘its right in the middle there for you’, referring to sour cream but it tasted different for sure, i think she was «telling me» where she put something nasty. i didnt eat all of it or the rest of my food last night. i still feel sick from it and was dry heaving this morning.
i am not sure what they did to the food but the last time i was there the same waitress almost completely ignored me. i had ordered prime rib but when it arrived it was inedible and i told her i wasn’t paying for it. this was after she assumed i needed a box for it but didn’t even ask if there was something wrong with it.
i went back because i go with a small group of friends each time i am there. i have no plans to return.
i never send my food back, the only time i did was the previous week, shes taking stuff out on people when she has no place to do so.
still waiting for a call back from management and the health department, spoke with a nurse and she confirmed viral gastrointestinal disease. never had a problem with the food there until she, diana, arrived.
this remains unresolved!!!

The dishes I sampled: fish n’ chips, coleslaw, tilapia poor boy, onion rings, and the appetizer steak w/​tortilla dish. The fish was okay, the fries were good, the coleslaw was very good, the poor boy was awesome, the O rings were not good at all, but the steak appetizer dish was amazing. The in house made tartar was good but the salsa that accompanied the steak and sour cream to go in the tortilla was divine. So I struggle here because it was a mash up of some excellent things to the O rings that both my friend and I couldn’t even eat. However, I feel like the good outweighed the bad so it bumps the rating past average and it makes it’s way, barely though, to a four. I would definately eat here again.

Their breakfast menu is small, but it is definitely not lacking. The steak and eggs looked and tasted scrumptious. The steak was actually thick cut and not the typical thin carne asada looking steak. It wasn’t cooked quite to our liking, but it was still very tender. The eggs, hash browns and toast were nothing crazy. I had a typical breakfast with 4 sausage links and was thoroughly full. $ 8.99 and $ 5.99, respectively.
My only gripe about this place is that they charged me $ 1.50 for coffee when I could have just walked out the two doors, into the casino and poured myself an endless supply of coffee… FOR FREE!
Otherwise, solid breakfast food and the service was good.

Hubby and I each had the prime rib dinner after some time on the slots. The meat was very nicely prepared, although fattier than other prime ribs I’ve had. It was accompanied by au jus, gravy, and horseradish sauce.
Where the meal fell down, however, was with the side dishes. The ice-​cream-​scoop side of mashed potatoes seemed very starchy — like they were reconstituted from potato flakes. And the vegetables? Oh dear. They were frozen peas and corn with bacon and onions. Very strange.
We did appreciate that they were open late on a Sunday night. The blond hostess was very pleasant, but the waiter was woefully inattentive… and he only had a total of six customers (at 3 tables) to look after! The dining room is very nice looking, but the cigarette smell from the casino cannot be escaped.

Just took the wife there for her birthday. We had prime rib and it was the best I have had, and at a great price, great service. We will go back.

Dad and I are always on the hunt for the Holy Grail of breakfast and lately it’s been a disappointment. The Torch Grill located in the Quil Ceda Creek Casino just turned the tide. One of our favorites is something called a «Joe’s Special», essentially scrambled eggs with spinach and hamburger or sausage. We weren’t sure that the «Smokin’ Joe’s Frittata» advertised in the Herald was going to be in the ballpark but we went for it. Score! The frittata was well executed with chunks of prime rib instead of ‘burger. I had a chicken fried steak that was respectable and my other dining partner had the Torch Benedict which was placed on fry bread as a twist on the tradition English muffin. The eggs came perfectly poached. The only gripe was that the hollandaise, while otherwise skillfully executed, lacked the lemony bite it should have had. The prices here are a screamin’ deal, an excellent value. The downside for me and my party is having to go through a noisy smoky casino (what’s up with that at 8:30am??).The service was cordial and efficient. I’ll be back
