Have come a few times over the past year. Two tent experiences and one inside the speak easy. The food, cocktails and service is wonderful! Owner is incredibly sweet and thoughtful with her guests, menu and aesthetic. These are pictures from the Valentines Day Pre Fixe menu – delish!

Exceeded our exceptions. We’ve celebrated our birthdays, wedding engagement, and special occasions with Animarum. If you want your taste buds to dance, come here. Combined with the perfect environment and special cocktails. This is truly a place to make you feel welcome. Thank you for being here!

We’ve eaten here for dinner and decided to try the pop up window experience. We got the poutine and al pastor tacos. Poutine was crispy, tacos were flavorful, our tummies were happy. Everything is made in house and was delicious! The staff were helpful, kind and thorough. We will definitely be back!!

My husband and I have eaten at their speakeasy, and also used them for our cocktail reception for our wedding. These guys are absolutely AMAZING in everything they do. The food, drinks, and service are all fantastic. The chef and owner are wonderful and friendly people who took the utmost care of us all night for our reception, and went above and beyond. The cocktails were fun and yummy, and the food was so delicious and such a hit with our group. We can’t recommend Animarum enough for a nice night out or for any intimate get-togethers!

We visited Animarum last evening with high expectations – and Animarum delivered – big time. We ate in the Speak Easy. The small plates selection is excellent and we had quite the dinner night out with friends. Scallops were great, coconut prawns were tasty, enjoyed the half Lobster tail, we all had the 8oz ribeye – and we had more. The plates came out one at a time, so we had a leisurely evening. The atmosphere is intimate, low lighting and decor is well done – cozy seating. Moved to Gig Harbor in June from Bellevue. Animarum is on the top of our list now. We will be back – very enjoyable evening. Keep it up A team. A woman owned biz as well . . . Nice.

This was the BEST! We such great service and food, I will be a fan for life! Chef Ben is a food wizard and Gabriela makes fantastic (and I mean fantastic) cocktails. I truly cannot wait until I return. Book a tent or just immerse yourself in the speak easy experience. And get the ribs if you do.

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!

The paella was absolutely insane. 6 inch lobster tail, 6 inch lobster claw, and so many muscles. To enjoy all this in a private tent was just perfect.

Craving a fine dining experience in a small unique setting? Look no further than Animarum. There is almost no proper way to describe the food their amazing chef prepares. I was very impressed to be seated by the owner. She is extremely friendly and obviously loves giving her customers a truly fantastic dining experience. From the elegant presentation of each course to the suggestions of just the right wine to pair with our meals…we were just amazed. We will be customers for life. We love supporting small local restaurants and will be recommending Animarum to all of our friends and family. Thank you for a great experience!
