Business Summary  what's this?
For four star American, try Harmon Pub And Brewery in Tacoma. This is a great place. This place is located in the Downtown area. When you step inside the restaurant, you'll notice a family atmosphere. This restaurant is open late and good for groups.
4.0 of 5 stars.

The gluten intolerant wife was able to order a pint (of pear cider) and I love the burgers. This was a place that I can take the in-laws to when they visit.
