“As a first time visitor to this restaurant I was pleasantly surprised. The staff was friendly and professional. Food was very tasty and delivered promptly. I especially liked the Black Truffle & Chicken Xiao Long Bao. Such a great first time experience. I will definitely come back and would highly recommend eating here. Remember to book a reservation. They fill up fast.“
“Went in with my parents and brother for dinner and WOW! This place is great! Good service, atmosphere is nice and the decor is a sight for sore eyes. The Dolar Shop is perfect for hotpot lovers and I recommend getting the half spicy and half creamy broth!“
Hot Pot • $$
“Our go to hot pot place. Perfect for all you can eat hot pot with lots of options. Everyone leaves full, happy, and smelling like hot pot broth.We usually do the tomato and mushroom broths, then load it up with meat, noodles, and some veggies.Be sure to come here with ample time on the weekends, as wait times are sometimes 2 hours.“
“Delicious hot pot in downtown Bellevue! For broths we had the house spicy and tomato. Big warning on the house spicy broth...even the "light spicy" is extremely spicy! It's very tasty but it will burn you twice if you know what I mean, especially vegetables that seem to soak up all the spicy oils. Our favorites were the beef short ribs and lamb shoulder. Fish filet was pretty good too, though I think we overcooked them. We also got Mexican shrimps that were huge but I wish they were de-veined, that was my only gripe of the meal. I really appreciated the wait staff, they were patient and explained how to order off their iPads, and gave recommendations that we enjoyed. The underground parking lot is kinda narrow and limited, so I bet it's a nightmare on busy weekends.“
“Excellent food with outstanding service.On our way out after indulging in most of the menu nearly every staff member in the dining room thanked us.Thank you again Joon for outstanding service!Parking: There is easy access to parking on Bell Square across the street. Or paid parking in Lincoln Square with validation from your server.“
“Lamb chops are really expensive... I remember one time I wanted to try it after buying something from Baijia, but I ended up ordering more than 50... The taste was actually pretty good, but the price was too expensive! Liangpi is delicious (but my Xi’an friend said it’s not very authentic), overall it’s pretty “
“Let's talk about Frying Fish, the Chinese eatery nestled in the mall area alongside Safeway and a cluster of other spots. Finding a spot to park is a breeze, and once inside, you'll find yourself in a cozy space adorned with traditional Chinese decor. Despite its prime location, scoring a table is usually a cinch, which is a pleasant surprise.Now, onto the main event--their signature Sichuan frying fish. It's got a bit of a greasy kick, but boy, is it flavorful. The portion sizes are nothing to scoff at, ensuring you'll leave satisfied. With five spice levels on offer, I tend to stick to a solid 4, but if your taste buds are feeling adventurous, they'll happily mix it up for you.When it comes to sides, the eggplant with basil or pea vine in garlic are standouts. The eggplant brings the heat, so proceed with caution if spice isn't your thing. But trust me, it's worth it. And the combination of basil and eggplant? Absolutely divine. While the pea vine might set you back a bit more, its unique flavor and texture make it a worthwhile indulgence.For those looking for an alternative to frying fish, the tea smoked duck is worth a try.Just a heads up--the dishes don't come with rice, so be sure to order some on the side or prepare it yourself at home.All in all, Frying Fish offers a unique twist on Chinese cuisine that's sure to leave a lasting impression. If you're in the mood for a culinary adventure, don't hesitate to give them a visit.“
“Delicious fish dishes! First time here, a small restaurant with lots of flavor. Highly recommend giving it a try. The signature sauerkraut is just the right spice if you're in between spicy levels. The golden pickled one was less spicy, without the dried chilies.“
“One of the things that caught my attention right away was their promotion for freebies. They offer a free egg if you check in on Yelp and a free soy milk if you leave a Google review. It's a clever way to encourage engagement with their customers and incentivize feedback. Now, onto the food. I ordered the cumin lamb crepe, and I must say, it exceeded my expectations. The lamb was incredibly flavorful, and what impressed me the most was that the crepe itself wasn't soggy. It held up well to the fillings, which made every bite enjoyable. The service at Me + Crepe is interesting. It's more of an afterthought as you order at a touch screen and then wait for your order to arrive. While it lacks the personal touch of traditional table service, it's efficient and suited for those who prefer a quick and straightforward dining experience. I also tried their tea egg, which was good, although I wished the tea flavor was a bit more prominent. Nonetheless, it was a tasty accompaniment to the meal. As for the free soy milk, while it might be poured from a jug, it did its job well in balancing out the spicy flavors of the cumin lamb. Sometimes simplicity is key, and it certainly did the trick.“
“After a long day, I decided to order some comfort food from Best Wok through DoorDash. Craving something sweet and tangy, I opted for the orange chicken and sweet and sour chicken. The ordering process was smooth, and the food arrived promptly, which was impressive.However, when I unpacked the meal, I noticed that the portions were quite small considering the price - $20 per item seemed steep for the amount provided. Both dishes came with just one small container of white rice, which was not quite sufficient for two complete meals.Taste-wise, the dishes were good. The orange chicken had a perfect balance of sweetness and zest, while the sweet and sour chicken boasted a tangy sauce that coated the tender pieces of chicken nicely. When compared to my usual go-to spot, it fell a bit short.Despite the portion size, I must say, this was definitely the best Chinese food I've ordered through a delivery system so far. The flavors were spot on, and the convenience of having it delivered to my doorstep was a plus. I would recommend Best Wok to anyone looking for quality Chinese cuisine delivered to their home.“
“Super authentic place to get Taiwanese food!! We've been coming here for years, and they never disappoint. They sell everything from shao bing to purple rice rolls, which are all delicious. Frozen and dry goods are also sold here. The owners are very kind and offer great service. I would definitely recommend coming here to buy Taiwanese food.“
“We came to dine in during Tuesday's dinner. The broth and food quality were excellent, and the servers were attentive.In addition, the restaurant currently offers 20%off discount from Mondays-Thursdays, 5 pm to close, which is a good deal! Besides the regular menu, they also offer an all-you-can-eat menu now!“
“Rice Noodles straight from Yunan 14220 NE 20th St suite a&b, Bellevue, WA*@nannoodle_bellevue is a small business in Bellevue that specializes in rice noodle soups . Their rice noodles are very special because they ship them all the way from Yunan in China to provide a more authentic texture and taste that you can't buy in local stores here. The rice noodles are then paired with different soups and toppings that starts with a soup broth made of pork bones, pork loin, spare ribs and about 30 whole chickens. The broth truly is delicious - hearty yet light, savory and umami. *Here's what we ordered: House Chili Oil Chicken Wontons in Well-Seasoned Chili Sauce (Dry) Traditional Crossing-the-Bridge Rice Noodles Small Pot Rice Noodles w/ an added Egg*Everything was super delicious and reminded Sam of his time eating these dishes with his mom - these styles of noodles are her favorite . The House Chili Oil Chicken reminds more of a sesame chicken but the sauce is super addicting and delicious, we took the rest home and dipped dumplings and mixed noodles with it . We loved the wontons because the filling was nicely flavored and the wrappers were the perfect q texture; not to mention, the dry seasoning on it was so addicting ! Between the two rice noodle pots, our favorite was the Crossing-the-Bridge because of how clean and flavorful the broth was a you can really tell how much love went into the broth and it was so good we drank it even without the noodles .*@nannoodle_bellevue shares a space with @mogetee_seattle so after you get your savory from the noodle soups and appetizers, you can get your sweet from their fruit teas and boba drinks . We definitely will be coming back as it's the perfect place to warm our stomachs during this rainy and cold season! Go check out @nannoodle_bellevue when you're on the east side and are craving something warm and comforting !*#chopsticksnboots“
“I got the spicy fried chicken and fried rice for takeout. Omg it was so good reminding me of home back on the East Coast. The price I paid was worth it because I actually have leftovers for tomorrow as well. Nice place to lunch in if you want.“
“This restaurant is huge with multiple rooms, but is understaffed. They tried to squeeze way too many tables with a table even almost right in the doorway. It's freezing at that table whenever anyone opens the front door. I think we only got our waters refilled once if at all, but we probably could have gotten more if we tried. It also took a while to get the check.We basically had one dish with each type of protein - free range chicken soup with cordyceps flower, steamed flounder with tofu, shredded pork with dry bean curd, and stir fried filet mignon, but also ordered the vegetable medley and "eggplants in hot garlic sauce".The chicken soup feels too overpriced, especially with the server spilling a bunch of it when pouring into the bowls. The shredded pork with dry bean curd and the eggplants in garlic sauce were both my favorite dishes. Their menu is huge, so there's going to be something for everyone. It seems like this restaurant is good for spicy dishes, even though we didn't have any.Parking: Tight parking spots“
“Definitely an authentic Sichuan菜 experience to be had here. Flavors remind me of some of the best similar restaurants I've visited while living in China.Dry hot pots, stir fried green beans, spicy noodles, and (non-spicy) beef and Chinese broccoli and fried rice for the kids made this an all-around great choice to please any palate. Vegetarians also have a lot of options, but I would probably check to ensure it's Western veg vs. Chinese veg to make sure no dietary rules are broken!Although it can get packed, as many other reviews have mentioned, service via QR code ticket gets things moving fairly quickly, and you shouldn't need to wait more than 20 minutes or so.“
“So yummy! I picked up my ribs and surprisingly found the desert I've been looking for a long time. 40 minutes later the food is still at very hot temperature. The portion is very generous - I've got two meals from the small order, cooked perfectly. Definitely coming back again. Not much seating space, very kind service crew.“
“Went to this place for a music event in the bar. $20 cover charge. Food we got was reasonably good, but they were short-handed with servers with only 2 people to serve a full bar of 50 or more patrons. To servers credit they and the kitchen did a fair job serving. Nice selection of libations. Music was lively and fun. Looking at the dining room menu I'd like to come back to try their dinner fare, in particular their oxtail dish.The bar menu of garlic with soy sauce was fairly tasty from the bar menu.“
“Across 4 people, we got two orders of the "Valuable Meal for 2", and might I just say: it is VALUABLE. The portions per person were enough for multiple meals of leftovers each, and everything tasted delicious. The pork stir fry noodle specifically was a standout. It was also very reasonably priced for the amount of food. But be warned -- come hungry! The web app used for ordering is a little confusing and not super user friendly - in particular I got kicked out of my in progress order a few times for no reason I could tell, and there was no option to split any of the payment per table when paying (this is something that should be piece of cake through a web app IMO).“
“It's easy to write a negative comment/review about a restaurant, but to receive service so good that you are so happy to leave a positive review.First off, my family of 4 arrived just when lunch rush began. So it is expected to wait for a bit. But the 2 ladies ran the front so well, things were cleaned up and set up in such efficient way, we were seated in no time. They have excellent communication between each other which made the process went so smoothly.Food was great, the C2 dish (crispy chicken with special spicy sauce) was really good. Not really spicy but for someone that doesn't really eat spicy, I have nothing to complain about. Too bad the fried chicken steak over rice was a bit overcooked and dry.At the end we decided to get some bubble tea. Although they were so busy they were spinning like a top, the lady with red hair took the time to introduce their drink to us, and even offered to split the drink for our kids so they each have one drink in hand (they were so surprised and felt special).Gosh, the tipping system is so abused nowadays, but for these 2 ladies? A hands-down "take my money cause you rock"!!“
“We went there for a dinner and it was a great experience. A minimal but great ambience and everything tasted awesome and fairly priced.We ordered the following:Pork & Crab Meat Xiao Long Bao (*2) - 8 pieces - $9.25 eaChicken Xiao Long Bao (*2) - 8 pieces - $9.25 eaFried Wonton with Chili Sauce - 6 pieces - $7.15 eaSweet & Sour Cucumber (*2) - $7.15 eaDan Dan Noodles (*2) - $7.75 eaPork Wontons in Chicken Broth - $7.75All the above listed items were delicious and worth praising. Absolutely recommended. We would love to visit here again when we visit Seattle.“
“The proprietress has a very nice attitude, and you can see the making process in the open kitchen... Not from Xi'an, I think the taste is generally good. The cold skin is not as delicious as expected, but it is far from the level of giving one star. The skewers taste Not “
“The chicken teriyaki is phenomenal here. I am very picky when it comes to teriyaki, since we have so many spots to choose from in the PNW, but this one might just be my all-time favorite.The chicken is grilled to perfection, with just the right amount of sauce. I usually get half spicy and half regular.The portions are huge, I usually eat half and save half for home, which will be another full meal at a later time. Great prices too.10/10 highly recommend !“
“We were recommended this Ramen restaurant and we’re quite surprised to find it. It’s actually more like a Chinese hot hot flavor. This is not Japanese Ramen at all and we were kind of happy because the Chinese hot pot style is so much better. The flavors are much more rich, and it’s a really fun environment and approach to making your own soup bowls. Highly recommend this place.“
“Ten Seconds | BellevueAt Ten Seconds in Bellevue, you're in for a treat! From the mouthwatering popcorn chicken to the refreshing cucumber salad, every bite is bursting with flavor. Trust me, that cucumber salad is something special—it's got this kick that just wakes up your taste buds. And the popcorn chicken? Not too greasy, perfectly seasoned—just how you like it. Even when it's bustling around lunchtime, the service stays on point. Can't wait to swing by again and dig into their noodle dishes. Ten Seconds is definitely becoming my go-to spot in Bellevue for a satisfying meal if you’re in the mood for chicken and noodles.#dinewithme4fun“
“So happy with the fried dumplings, so delish, great crunch then so juicy inside. Great and fast service, Winston was really helpful making sure that my frozen dumplings would stay frozen. He packed it well with ice, appreciate that as I live a bit far from Bellevue. Will come back and recommend to friends.“
“Scallion oil poached chicken from the fridge is so good. You know if you know. They also serve at Microsoft food court as well everyday in different building. I would recommend their braised beef bento box. Beef is very nice. Even the potato itself is surprisingly good.“
“BEST TERIYAKI in the area!!! My husband and i had been on the hunt for a good teriyaki place for over 1 year since moving to the Issaquah area. This location is a short drive away but totally worth it. The staff is also extreamly kind and attentive.I highly recommend their Chicken Teriyaki and Gyoza combo.**If you find my review helpful please click on the LIKE ? icon and follow my profile...thank you!**“
“One of the only authentic Shanghainese places around (the other being Shanghai House). Their flavor reminds me of my childhood. The pork mooncakes and radish pastry are flakey and delicious! The kaofu and tofu with shredded veggies are also very nice. The overall flavor is tasty and I'll be going back to try more of their dishes.“
“Not sure where the negative reviews are coming from. Clean, friendly service, the boiled vegetarian dumplings are much more flavorful than other local veggie options. Prices seem to be competitive considering their location in the heart of Bellevue. Would definitely recommend!“
“Really enjoyed grabbing lunch here! They have a great mix of food and I definitely appreciate their healthier options. Always very clean and the owners are super friendly as well. Would definitely recommend stopping by for a quick bite, especially during the workday“
“I normally prefer traditional Chinese restaurants but Peony came as a surprisely new take on Chinese based fusion, with flavors of Vietnam and the Med. I'll make a case for the beef and the squid ink fried rice. Sichuan standards like pop corn chili chicken are well executed, and also noodle dishes. Lighting could be brighter. There's free parking in the basement.“
“Groupon has a deal for a deluxe karaoke room up to 50 people but this isn't real. Their rooms are really up to 15 max. It was a bit stressful when I learned about this especially when I had planned an event for 40 people. However, the manager on site, Carl, was very accommodating and his staff gave us a great service to make up for the mishap. We still had to pay additional $36 for cleaning fee which really should have been included in the Groupon. All the staff were friendly and patient though. The food was just okay and the karaoke machine/audio was great.“
“Decent option for sit down Indo Chinese in Bellevue downtown. We got burnt garlic fried rice, chicken Manchurian and side of schezwan sauce. The Manchurian felt like it was lacking some sourness and fried rice some flavor. Overall it’s still one of the better options in Bellevuen downtown for Indian hence four stars. Otherwise I’d recommend Mayur’s bakery for better Indo Chinese. Also of course ambiance here is much better.PS: On a random Saturday night this was quite busy and had a wait time of 20ish minutes for walk-ins tor two people. Though from what I understand you can’t really reserve a spot without walking in either.PPS: They have meetha paan too which was unexpected and quite nice!“
“Ordered chicken wing simmer pot with non spicy sauce. Unexpectedly good. Chicken wings were so tender, wtf. The cloves of garlic were great. Quail eggs also great. Rice with the sauce was great. Wish I can come here without my kids to eat spicy bullfrog simmer pot“
“Such an astounding experience today for my whole family and especially my dad. We made a reservation here to celebrate my dad’s birthday. We had heard the customer service here was great but even so they definitely went way above and beyond and thoroughly exceeded our expectations. Kay was our server, he made sure the whole experience was so good from the very beginning to the end for us. He decorated the whole table for his birthday, which was totally unexpected, even brought the cake out with a lit candle!! He even gave my dad a small gift. While my boyfriend and I were waiting for the rest of the family to show up, he brought us a small plate of fruit. Such attention to detail!My parents were very impressed by the whole establishment. Our water cups never went empty, Kay checked in on us often. I’ve never felt so welcome and taken care of.Free validated parking. The bathroom was stocked with mouth wash, toothbrush/toothpaste. He gave us hair ties and lens cleaners for my brother and nephew. The dancing noodle guy did a great job as well!Definitely come for a birthday if you want the person to feel special! The tomyum soup was the favorite among most of us, miso as well!“
