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!“

“Summary:
A great spot if you’re craving dumplings/potstickers. Their chive and shrimp dumplings are fresh and flavorful, making it worth a visit. However, I wouldn’t recommend the Dan Dan noodles as they fall short of authenticity. Service is quick and polite, run by what seems to be a hardworking couple. Overall, it’s a solid choice for dumplings, earning four stars.

Ambience (4/5):
The atmosphere is simple and no-frills, but it’s comfortable and welcoming. It’s a cozy spot to enjoy a casual meal, especially if you’re in the mood for dumplings. The focus here is clearly on the food, which is the main attraction.

Authenticity (3/5):
The dumplings are definitely the highlight, and the chive shrimp variety stands out as fresh and flavorful. However, the Dan Dan noodles were a letdown. They arrived in a stone bowl/pot, which looked unusual, and the taste was just okay—definitely not authentic. You can find better versions of Dan Dan noodles elsewhere.

Flavor (4/5):
The chive shrimp dumplings were fresh, with a great balance of flavor. I really enjoyed how the chive complemented the shrimp. However, the Dan Dan noodles were underwhelming in both presentation and taste. Stick to the dumplings—they’re what the restaurant does best.

Cost (4/5):
For the quality and portion sizes, the prices are reasonable. You’ll get a solid meal without breaking the bank, especially if you focus on the dumplings, which are definitely worth the price.

Service (5/5):
The service was excellent. It seems to be a couple running the restaurant, and they were fast, efficient, and very polite. The speed of the service really impressed me, and they made the dining experience smooth and enjoyable.

Tips for Visiting:

1. Stick to the dumplings: The dumplings are the star of the show here, especially the chive shrimp dumplings. I’d recommend focusing on these and skipping the Dan Dan noodles.
2. Quick service: The service is speedy and polite, so even during busy times, you won’t have to wait long for your food.
3. Casual spot: If you’re looking for a casual place with good dumplings, this is a great choice. The ambiance is simple, but it’s all about the food here.“

The sweet and sour pork was like nothing we've had before, and the pot stickers are clearly made from scratch on site, they taste soooo fresh. Best of all, the chef had just whipped up a bath of popcorn chicken with this amazing sweet/spicy seasoning, and let us try it to give our opinion on the new recipe. So good! Very high quality food, made fresh, and incredibly reasonable prices. (Most entrees I saw are $9-12.) And the owners are exceptionally kind and professional. This will be our go to when we are in the neighborhood.“

“Summary:
This noodle bar in Seattle offers an incredibly authentic Szechuan dining experience, with bold flavors and even real peppercorns in the dishes. The fact that an American chef could execute such an authentic Szechuan dish was a pleasant surprise. Although they close early at 2 PM, which cut my work time short, the food and overall experience were so good that it still deserves 5 stars.

Ambience (4.5/5):
The atmosphere was casual and welcoming, perfect for a quick lunch. It’s a cozy spot that has an authentic feel, and though it’s small, it offers a comfortable setting for enjoying a meal.

Authenticity (5/5):
The flavors were spot on! I was impressed with how the chef, despite being American, created such an authentic Szechuan dish. The use of real peppercorns gave the dish that unique, numbing spice that you’d expect from a true Szechuan meal.

Flavor (5/5):
The flavors were bold, spicy, and perfectly balanced. The peppercorns added just the right amount of heat and tingling sensation, making the noodles incredibly flavorful. The authenticity of the flavors definitely stood out.

Cost (4.5/5):
For the quality and authenticity of the food, the prices were very reasonable. It’s a great spot to grab a quick, delicious, and affordable meal without breaking the bank.

Service (4.5/5):
The service was good overall, though the only downside was being asked to leave right after lunch when they closed at 2 PM. While understandable, as they were closing, it would have been nice to be able to linger a bit longer, especially since it’s a great spot to sit and work. That said, the staff was polite about it, and I have no complaints.

Tips for Visiting:

1. Arrive before 2 PM: They close early, so plan your visit accordingly, especially if you want to sit and enjoy your meal without feeling rushed.
2. Try the Szechuan noodles: If you love bold, authentic flavors with real peppercorns, this is a must-try dish!
3. Great for lunch, but don’t plan to stick around for long as it’s a quick-service spot that closes in the early afternoon.“

“Chef Liao Asian Fusion Cuisine is a cozy little spot conveniently located near the Woodland Park Zoo in Seattle. It’s a perfect choice for a quick and satisfying lunch after a morning of exploring the zoo.

The portions here are incredibly generous, so come with an appetite! The service was impressively fast and very friendly, which made for a pleasant dining experience.

I ordered the Chicken Pad Thai, which came with white rice, hot and sour soup, and an egg roll. The Pad Thai was flavorful and well-balanced, with just the right amount of tanginess and sweetness. I also tried the Sweet and Sour Chicken, which was delicious but, in hindsight, I would recommend asking for the sweet and sour sauce on the side. It wasn’t a huge issue, but it would have allowed for a bit more control over the flavor.

Overall, Chef Liao is a fantastic spot for a hearty, delicious meal with quick service and a welcoming atmosphere. If you’re in the area, especially after a trip to the zoo, it’s definitely worth a visit!“

“How would I describe Spicy Sichuan? Perhaps as a journey of flavor. It's as delicious as it is authentic. The spicy numbness hits you in all the right places.

Being part of a largely Taiwanese family, it suffices to say spice and flavor isn't quite their forte. That's why it's such a treat whenever I can come here. We typically get one spicy dish and everything else ask for non-spicy. Even the reduced spice food was delicious!

The restaurant isn't terribly large, but I felt like it was an efficient use of space, as I've never had to wait too long for a table.

I would recommend the twice cooked pork and the boiled fish dishes. Definitely my go-to!“

The noodle is cooked with soup that's alkali (pH>7) to make it tender, so it needs the vinegar to balance out the taste. Everything including the wonton, and broth are authentic to the original form.

Other dishes like dry cook beef noodle and brisket rice plate also resemble the tastes in Southeast China region.“

“Wide range of delicious choices, prepared consistently well and served with care. The atmosphere is indeed a strip mall, so it's not fancy, but it does have booths and they are comfy. The 2nd generation daughter was running the entire front of the house well, the place filled up but wasn't super crowded. This place is quick to get to from Bothell; we'll be back!“

“My family grew up coming to this restaurant. It is truly comfort food for us. The dishes are iconic, generously portioned, and downright delicious. We have our go-to items that we always get (mushu vegetable, egg drop soup, general tsos chicken, others) and they never disappoint. They even roll the dumplings for you :)“

“The prices are great and that orange chicken was bomb!! Loved the texture and it was unique from the other orange chicken I tried. I like how it’s not too too sweet so it depends on your taste palette. The beef and broccoli came out saltier than I’d like but I’m assuming this caters more for the general American public than Asian ones (again, everyone has their own preference).

Came in during dinner and seems like business is doing well. I saw a few customers being impatient and grouchy with the lady in the front with the long wait, but please be mindful that they seem under staffed and dinner time could be a bottleneck like in many other places. Auntie is super kind and I applaud her for being patient and showcasing good customer service even during busy times.“

“Best Chinese food in Seattle! I’ve tried multiple dishes here and they were phenomenal! If you order certain dollar amount you get an appetizer or entree free which is a bonus! Everyone that I encountered in the restaurant are so friendly and welcoming which made me feel so special and genuinely care about their customers unlike a lot of restaurants in Seattle. The portion is big so you can definitely split but I usually order several dishes to eat the next day and still tastes amazing! Highly recommend if you want good Chinese food with great value!

Foods I tried that were amazing!
- Hand shaved noodles
- Singapore noodles
- Sweet and sour chicken (you can get this free if you order $45)
-Mooshu veggies
-Salt and pepper squid

Every time I go, I’m trying new items but I guarantee everything here is very tasty!“

“Amazing food since new management took over. Authentic Sichuan chicken with enough Szechuan pepper.

I ate the fish too fast for the photo because it was so tasty.

Their chicken is amazing too but their fish is truly out of this world.“

“I LOVE this place. Dining in, I had tofu and crab rangoon for appetizers, and 3 different sushi maki rolls. (Pic includes sushi and rangoon. Rangoon had 6 total, fyi)

All the food was GREAT. I also had honey walnut shrimp and beef fried rice to go. Even that also tasted amazing.

The service is one of the best. My water glass never went empty, and they always check on you for what you may need.

I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS PLACE.“

“I just got back from a week in China last month, and have been really craving some of the food that I'd had while there. After cruising some of the spots on the Ave, I went in here and was NOT disappointed. This is a very authentic restaurant, and will have dishes that you don't usually find on the menu at other chinese places. Service is minimal, atmosphere is super fast casual and minimal, but you're not there for that- you're there for the 10/10 food and they certainly deliver!“

“Excellent Chinese restaurant with Week end Dim Sum menu that is brilliantly executed. The portions are well served and the prices reasonable. The service is fast and friendly and there is a good parking on the premises. This is what Chinese restaurants in America used to be and there is a bit of nostalgia if you depended on them for meals when I. College in the 80s.“

“The food was amazing as usual. I have enjoyed food at Redmond location a bunch of times, but this was my first time at Bothell location.

Kid-friendliness: My concern with this place is always the space. But with toddlers, it felt more crunched. My baby in her seat was able to eat from our table as well as reach out to the neighbors table, and I felt horrible and kept saying sorry. Also, you can literally hear the whole conversation on the next table as it's not usually that loud in here, plus if you have toddlers trying to express themselves or enjoying their food, your neighbors might not necessarily enjoy their dining experience, just saying.“
