Chain update: Puyallup's South Hill gets another Red Robin and a BJ's Brewhouse

Puyallup’s South Hill is home to chain restaurants that seem to multiply like Tribbles. Red Robin will now join The Ram and Applebee’s in duplicating itself there. The gourmet burger chain that was founded in the Northwest has applied for a liquor permit for a restaurant at 16904 Meridian Ave. E., Puyallup (that location appears to be near Kohl’s). A company spokeswoman confirmed via email that the restaurant will be a second South Hill location and that the Red Robin near South Hill Mall will remain open. The new Red Robin is expected to open in the spring.

  • Finally opening in Puyallup - El Toro Mexican Restaurant on Canyon

    For years, a sign just off Canyon Road in Puyallup advertised the future home of El Toro, a chain of Mexican restaurants operating in the South Sound since 1979. Years passed, there was no activity, no construction at the site. Just that weathered sign. Ruben Arias Jr. whose father Ruben Arias Sr. founded the chain, said he’s received so many emails and calls about that sign, he can’t respond to them all. They ask the same thing - are you ever going to open?

This bakery will cater to kids – a pretty safe bet in a suburban community like South Hill – with its Epic Eddie mascot and specials aimed at schools and youth sports teams.

  • Gyros invasion: Greek restaurants becoming a lot easier to find around Tacoma

    Gyros come, gyros go. We've seen that happen a lot the last year. Recent restaurant closures include Zara Mediterranean and University Gyros, both in downtown Tacoma, My Greek in Puyallup's South Hill last July, and the closure several months ago of Gyros Place. It seemed as if the closures would drastically reduce our access to gyros, souvlaki and falafal (the horror!). Lucky for diners, when one gyros door closes here, another seems to open. Here's a report about the recent moves and upcoming openings of four Greek restaurants:

    Holland said a repeat of 2012 is unacceptable.

    "We did not perform well last year when it counted," Holland said of the state competition. "We certainly want to place better than we did last year. It's not necessarily about getting a certain place, its all about improving from last year's showing.
