The food and service was great. However, due to understaff or too many online orders, the waiting time for food was long. Overall, it was good.

Presents well but is over spiced. Service wasn't great, nothing was explained and she seem annoyed to have be there. Overall it lackluster, they just know how to take a good picture and assembly food.

Great venue, great meal. A nice friendly atmosphere. One meal came out much slower than the others, but it was still delicious and the staff were very apologetic. Will definitely again.

Best ribs I've ever had. The Oh Mamma was awesome, even the bacon candy was good as a starter. Only downfall was the Jucy Lucy patty was almost red raw inside. But I'd definitely come back again

tasty american style meats! chips are especially delicious, but the real show stopper is their maple bacin - its chewy and sweet and salty all at the same time.

Candy bacon, sangria, milkshakes (boozy and non), burgers. All thoroughly satisfying. Would recommend for anyone with an appetite and minimal regard for health. The service was good, minimal waiting time for food and beverages. Cheeseburger Royale was the selection of 5/6 people from our table, nobody was complaining, that burger is the bomb. Bacon candy is the greatest concept and tasted exactly as described in the menu. Recommend 2 serves for 6 people.

I had lunch at the Third Wave and enjoyed it very much. But the Russian Salad portion was too big to finish. Second time I have been there and like the place a lot.

Food, superb! If there's word more than superb i'll go with that. Things not good are they lack manpower and small place. Still, we will dine again.

Great food and good coffee. Wide variety of food options, burgers and reuben sandwich are excellent. Dessert will expand your waistline so indulge if you dare.

Booked for 4, was seated and served very quickly! The food all came out together in about 10-15 minutes of waiting. It was a delicious meat feast. Ordered the smoky mac and cheese, bacon candy, ribs and salmon. It was all delicious.

Third wave is my go to place for ribs, they never fail to hit the spot and for me consistency is very important - quality of food is always consistent and service was good considering the staff member was on her own :) keep it up Third Wave!

Food was great we all enjoyed it and will definitely be going back. Service was great! Ambiance wasn't great for dinner as it felt more like a cafe. I think they need to dime the lights? .

We were seated and given menus.. there was 4 of us and only 3 menus were given. Anyway i let it side as it was not a big deal. It took 30 minutes for us to order and we had to get the waiters attention too. I observed the other tables and they had to do the same. Wierd youd think they want to take your order. Food arrived and burgers were average. Not sure what the hype is all about reading it on zomato. Could get a awesome burger from mr.scruff or 8bit for half the price. Also i requested for mayo, i had to ask for it 3 times!! before it arrived. Lastly i got a sangria which was 27$ oh lord. Way too expensive for 500 ml. That is usually a price for a jug. Definately would not come back. The place is situated in pahran there are so many better cafes to go to and to spend your money.
