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!“

“There are a handful of restaurants that I’d seriously vouch for in Seattle/Bellevue - Dan Gui is definitely top of the list.

I don’t think I have any notes. The food was phenomenal. Everything was made with intention to perfection - the spicy pork, the tofu, and the green beans. The tofu with crispy skin and a soft filling inside was just too good. The portion was very generous, and even when I thought I overate, the food went down really well. Quality ingredients & not overly oily for the Sichuan cuisine!

I appreciate I could sit & talk for a while at this place without the server even once approaching the table or rushing us out. Once I needed service, everyone was attentive. Food came out extremely fast as well - for a decently sized menu, the kitchen must have internalized every item extremely well to be able to push out dishes so fast.

Extremely impressed. Such a wonderful hidden gem. I will certainly return and make sure everyone I know know about this place.“

“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!“

“The song selection here is amazing and includes so many different languages. It’s so cool that the machine has YouTube built right into it! We're here for a company gathering, and we have a lot of teammates who aren’t native English speakers. The owners really went above and beyond to make this setup so inclusive for different languages.“

“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 One thing is you should disregard the inside tables/chairs are out of date, because the restaurant puts more efforts into the quality menu.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.“

“Best dumplings outside of china.“

“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.“

“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!“

“the food was bomb but I would love to keep on coming back because the service was excellent!! The host was very sweet and he made us feel at home when we dined in.

Def prefer this over any ayce and the servers were kind enough to put a cover on our clothes while our hot pot was cooking that way it would protect it from the food smells.

There’s also complimentary ice cream!!“

“Outstanding food and excellent customer service! We ordered several dishes for the table, including dumplings, sesame chicken, lo mein, and fried rice. Every single item was delicious and beautifully presented. The flavors tasted authentic and balanced, not overly salty or greasy like some places. The staff checked on us regularly and made sure our drinks stayed full. Wonderful dining experience from start to finish.“

“I really love coming to this restaurant. The owner is incredibly friendly, and the staff are always smiling and welcoming—it just makes the whole place feel warm and comfortable.

The food is consistently delicious, and they pay great attention to details. Every time I ask for something like “no spicy,” they always get it right, which I really appreciate.

The owner is also very attentive—whenever customers need anything, he’s quick to come over and help. The service here is genuinely excellent.

This is definitely a place we come back to regularly. The prices are reasonable, and the overall value is great. Highly recommend!“

“Best fried rice ever!! I’m vegan and this place has amazing vegan options: tofu, fried rice, veggies, etc. The prices are very reasonable and the portions are huge. The service was also 10/10 and the atmosphere was just an amazing place. I will 100% be coming back here again. Thank you so much!“

“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.“
