Animarum - Gig Harbor

My husband and I have dined at their speakeasy and also chose them for our wedding cocktail reception. They are truly AMAZING in every aspect. The food, drinks, and service were all outstanding. The chef and owner are both wonderful and friendly individuals who took exceptional care of us throughout the evening of our reception, going above and beyond our expectations. The cocktails were delightful and tasty, while the food was absolutely delicious and a big hit with our guests. We highly recommend Animarum for a lovely night out or any intimate gatherings!

This was absolutely amazing! The service and food were outstanding, and I'm definitely a fan for life! Chef Ben is a culinary genius, and Gabriela crafts phenomenal cocktails—truly fantastic! I can't wait to go back. Whether you book a tent or dive into the speakeasy experience, you won't regret it. And definitely try the ribs if you visit!

We’ve dined here for dinner before and decided to give the pop-up window experience a try. We ordered the poutine and al pastor tacos. The poutine was crispy, and the tacos were flavorful—our stomachs were certainly satisfied! Everything is made in-house and tasted fantastic. The staff was helpful, friendly, and attentive. We will definitely be returning!

Agree with the other low reviews below. Very shocked they have such high reviews. Went to their pop up menu and was extremely disappointed. The menu looked awesome, they have about 6 things on it. We ordered 3 things and it was $50. The al pastor tacos were beyond disappointing.... they had zero flavor and I'm not sure what kind of tortillas they used but they were awful. We were so hungry after, we ended up at the Thai place across the street. I never mind spending money on good food and this just wasn't cutting it. I ate the tacos so fast just so I could be done with them. It was that bad.

Just had a lovely private dining experience in a beautiful tent with very attentive server and chef. The food was creative and delightfully yummy and all made in house. The owner was engaging but not intrusive. The Persian meal was perfectly paired with the right drinks. Everything was sublime. Thanks Gabby and Ben!
