We come to Issaquah a few times a year, and when we do this is the place we eat. They have a huge menu and honestly I don't think I have had something I don't like. The Mongolian beef is the bomb and the fried rice is awesome too. Give it a try you will not regret it.

Have been there 2x since I live up near the Canadian border. Good selection and service. Very nice people. Prices are a bit high but I think it’s that way for many good dim sum places these days. Good dim sum places are hard to find especially in the suburban areas.

Nope. Typical commercial food.

Good food Tate like authentic Chinese must try if you love Chinese cuisine

While the food is decent, it’s the service that really stands out. The ladies at Macky’s are incredibly friendly and attentive, which makes the experience feel warm and welcoming.
Sure, the best dim sum spots are still across the bridge in Seattle, but when I’m feeling lazy on a Sunday, Macky’s hits the spot. It’s a solid local option when you want something convenient without sacrificing a pleasant dining experience.

I’ve been coming to Macky’s for the last 2 decades. It’s always been such a special place to sit and eat delicious food with family and friends. It sounds like they’ve been having issues with racism and mistreatment from the landlord and I hope the local community can step up and stand up for this special family-owned restaurant!

So consistent and delicious!

Took a group of friends from out of town here and we all devoured our food even though it was only suppose to be a “snack”. I wasn’t sure what to order for a group of 6 of us but Macky handled everything for us and everything she ordered was spot on.
We got two types of noodles - chow mein & chow fun (which was our favorite), Steamed BBQ pork, Shu Mai, Potstickers, Har Gow, the GREEN BEANS.
Being taken care of by Macky and the rest of the staff is truly made our experience so special, so warm, and so rare to find these days.

We arrived a little bit close to closing and we had originally wanted to dine outside but there seems to be some construction going on. As we entered, the restaurant was gorgeous with soft piano covers of different classic songs. They had a beautiful fish tank in the corner of the restaurant. All tables had a soy sauce container, chili oil container, and sugar. We were greeted by a male waiter who directed us to our table with menus. He brought us waters and gave us ample time to look over the extensive menu. We decided to get the dinner for two as it came with dim sum which was I mainly wanted and we also got their hot tea, broccoli beef, Szechuan seafood, pork fried rice, and a large egg flower soup.
The hot tea was very comforting and the perfect accompaniment with the food coming. We received our soup first and the waiter was kind enough to scoop out our portions which I thought was hospitable. The egg drop soup was seasoned well but I love spicy chili oil in my egg drop soup for that extra kick. We received our dim sum next and it was piping out, so be careful cause I burned my mouth a lot but it was so worth it. The dim sum was huge and full of flavor. We then received our entrees and it looked so delicious. My boyfriend was raving about the beef being some of the tender beefs he has ever had in his life and I'm inclined to agree. It just melts in your mouth! I liked the flavors of my dish but the vegetables were pretty tough and it was making my teeth sore. The choices of seafood options were tasty but it was hard to enjoy the vegetables which some of them I had to leave leftovers of. The fried rice was delicious too, the wok hei taste was very present and the BBQ pork was excellent.
The service was attentive and they checked in on us to take plates away, to see if we needed anything else, or if we needed refills.

After giving this place a try, it's well worth the 15-20 min drive to the Bellevue area for much better fare. I'm sure the restaurant had its moment years ago, but I noticed too many red flags for me to consider returning (if you've ever worked in a restaurant, you know what to look out for). Couple these signs with their known food safety violations, its not much of a surprise. For the size of Issaquah—and how fast it is growing—it has a surprisingly good and diverse food scene. It can certainly do much better than this.
