Szechuan Restaurants near Bellevue, WA

“Discovered this place accidently one afternoon and have consistently gone back with friends and family! Want to try everything on their menu but... their food is SO good that we keep going back for the same dishes- the mapu tofu and chopped pepper fish are some of our favs! The service is always pleasant and prompt.

Defs recommend!“

“Excellent tasting food and the serving sizes are huge making it really value for money. We got the stir fried beef and house special fried rice and had a good amount of leftover between two of us. Stir fried beef was really flavor and would so well seasoned it'd pair well even with just plain steamed rice! The house fried rice had shrimp, pork, chicken and egg making it a great combo.

Edit 1: Also the when they say spicy they mean it. I asked for 4/5 and the beef stir fry I could see had extra chillies and a good amount of kick more than prior when I had it.

Edit 2: On third visit got spice level 4 beef again but this wasn't as spicy. And Szechuan spicy pork was more on sweet and spicy side. A bit too sweet for me.“

“The service was great . I liked the fish items .“

“I celebrated my friend's birthday in this restaurant! The food is good, however the purple light makes it seems less attractive. We cannot find the match to light the candles, and the staff used a long torch to help us light the candles, as the staff don't smoke, therefore they don't have a pocket lighter. I'll definitely come here again!“

“This restaurant is underrated in overall, delicious meals with large portions with cheap prices. We keep returning to ordering meals almost weekly. One thing is you should disregard the inside tables/chairs are out of date, because the restaurant puts more efforts into the quality menu. Its front door is opened on the streets side, so people often missed it. I encourage you try them when you get a chance.“

“I had a great time at this karaoke spot! 🎤 The environment is clean, modern, and well-designed, with private rooms that feel comfortable and lively at the same time. The sound system is excellent, and the atmosphere makes it easy to relax and enjoy singing with friends. I was also pleasantly surprised by the food 🍽️ — the menu offers a good variety, and everything we ordered was fresh and flavorful. The snacks paired perfectly with our drinks and karaoke session. Overall, it’s a fun place to hang out, sing, eat well, and create great memories 🎶.
Highly recommended!“

“Had lunch here today for the first time. The food was phenomenal and the staff were friendly. This might be my new favorite restaurant in Seattle CID.“

“Best dumplings outside of china.“

“This feels like a hidden gem? The food and service were good. We had complimentary hot tea, hard to enjoy on a warm day but welcomed. I ordered the garlic eggplant, water boiled fish, and one of the lamb dish that had onions. Everything came out so delicious and as I expected from previous sichuanese restaurant experiences. The food is served family style on a large plate with one serving spoon. It can be difficult to eat the food with chopsticks as it gets oily real quick but they provide a spoon upon request. I would love to come back as often as possible if I were closer. It's also pretty affordable for the amount of food received.“

“First timer of this restaurant... This is definitely Authentic Home Made Chinese Food , made by Real Chinese People! Yummy! 5*****“

“Excellent 🥘, great portions.“

“There's this unexpected gem, you MUST try, in the U-District! It's the Red Pepper Chinese Cuisine! They are this great clean and fairly fast restaurant, that serves up hearty and delicious meals! Most of their entrées serve 2 or more people (almost family style), so bring your appetite!!! We had their Dry Pot dish, where you can choose 5 mix and match ingredients, on their menu. A Stir-Fried Noodle, with Chicken and a Deep Fried Chicken Soft Bone, with RED PEPPER! 😉🔥🌶 Everything was super delicious and filling!!! It looks like they have great lunch specials too, so go check them out and lmk what you try! Cheers!“

“Wonderful! atmosphere and fresh food!“

“Went here for Valentine's Day at 9 pm, about a 15-30 min wait, they gave my girl a rose when we sat down. There are SO many options for broth, meat, vegetables, tons of seafood and tofu options. It took us at least 15 mins to decide what we wanted. No cold desert options after 9 pm. Still gave us the free soft serve at the end though.
If it's your first time, highly recommend basic bone broth/spicy broth duo, pork and beef combo ring, cabbage, yam sticks, dumplings, udon noodles. For just broth n meat and no extras, expect to spend about $30-$40 total. All extras cost about $4.50-$12.
Highly recommend the fried rice cakes for desert.
For sauce bar, mix peanuts, peanut/sesame paste, a little chilli oil, a little oyster or hoisin sauce, green onions, cilantro, with a little soy sauce, (optionally add vinegar).
The servers don't check up on you too much after ordering unless it's to refill your broth. You can take everything leftover home, including broth for round 2 at home. 10/10 highly recommend.“

“Seattle's BEST Chinese food. 1 star off on service is bc food does come in slow so probably not a good choice if u are already really starving. however, u literally taste they make everything from scratch.
one more time, this place is Seattle's BEST CHINESE FOOD.“

“Went on a Sat afternoon. Place was not very busy but it took a bit to get seated. Had to ask for paper menus.

Picked one safe dish and one new dish. Worth it! We got the pumpkin fried with salted egg yolks and some vegetarian noodles.“

“We are always surprised how underrated this place is. It's our go to spot after visiting the zoo. Dim Sum/ Cantonese-styled dishes: we love it! the price is also very reasonable. The decor & atmosphere is a little dated.. but with the food & the price: I'll still 100% down on this place!“

“The food was excellent, and the waitress was very attentive. I had the wonton soup, crispy honey walnut chicken, garlic string beans, and the short ribs. Every dish was very good. If I had to choose a favorite it was probably the honey walnut chicken because it had a very satisfying crispy texture on the outside.“
