We love Mali Thai -- it's really the only place besides Corner Store pizza that works for takeout (for us) in Woodland. Lots of vegan, vegetarian and GF options (which are all marked clearly on the menu and that servers can give you more info about). The GF options are even safe for folks with serious gluten allergies -- we have a friend who has to be incredibly careful about exposure to gluten and she was overjoyed to find out she could dine here. She and her husband get takeout or dine in there a few times a month, even though they live about 30 minutes away.
We also love the group of folks who work there, including (but not limited to) Bee, Mindy and Angel.
The food was great! Best diner food I've had in a long time. And I was soooo happy to see that there was gluten free options. The best gluten free french toast I have ever had! Whish I had taken a picture.
I just have to brag about this place. Not only are they largely involved in the community giving away mini pizzas to kids who do well in school. But they have ALWAYS been extremely accommodating to my gluten free needs. As someone with celiac disease, it can be hard to find safe places to eat, especially places that make dough. But I feel safe eating here and appreciate how far the staff goes to make my food with care. Best pizza joint in town. And the staff we always see are simply amazing. They are kind and always go out of their way for the customers. Thank you for going above and beyond always.
Stopped by Rosie’s as I haven’t been there in years. Brought my Mom as her favorite place closed down recently and she was looking for a new one. Needless to say, we found a new breakfast place for her. The place is just like I’d remembered it from years ago, the staff was amazing and super friendly and the food was perfect. Rosie’s has that old (clean) diner feel to it with 70s/80s country playing, the staff treating you like they’ve known you forever, and food cooked just like you’d expect. We had omelettes and they were great. You could tell they weren’t like other places that skimp and add in pancake batter (yep, some places do that). The omelettes were cooked perfectly and had a great balance of filling (I had a Denver, Mom went with ham and cheese). The hashbrowns were fantastic; crispy but not over done. Mom had a biscuit which she said was good and I had some gluten free toast (I’m not celiac, but the staff even made a point of letting me know they were giving my butter instead of margarine as that has gluten in it; didn’t expect them to go to that level but what a nice touch). Good luck trying to finish off a cup of coffee without getting it refilled; the staff are all over that and make sure you’re never looking at an empty cup. I’ve tried just about every breakfast spot (Rosie’s isn’t just breakfast though) between Longview and Washougal and Rosie’s ranks among the best of them.
OK so the nachos were above my expections. As well as the con queso dip. Absolutely delish! I don't usually order them because
its something easy we mostly make at home. A range of different kinds because I am allergic to gluten. Most all Mexican restaurants don't season their chicken and always boring. But this place, their chicken is so so flavorful. It really makes a huge huge difference. Thank you for taking the time to go extra miles to make sure that every corner of your recipes are complete. Its more important than you think, even with a simple dish like nachos and con queso. All Restaurant prices went up and most cut corners, but not here. So this place is on my list with only a
few of others.
Went here for the first time with it having new ownership and it was such a great experience. My daughter is Autistic and taking her places is hard because she can get overwhelmed or staff are impatient, but that was not the case at all! Ronda was so nice and her staff and they had a play area with sensory friendly toys that were perfect for my daughter. My daughter felt at home and wanted to stay and play. There was a baby play pen too and a changing area. It’s rare to find kid centered places and so this is such a great find. They had lots of coffee options and the coffee was yummy (I am very picky and loved it). They even had gluten free items which just was an extra win. We will definitely become regulars!
