32 Best Asian Restaurants near Kent

“We had such a wonderful experience! Our server Javier was incredibly bubbly, accommodating, and knowledgeable. He made us feel so welcome from the moment we arrived, answered all of our questions, and gave great recommendations. My husband's soup ended up being a little too spicy, and he was so kind to replace it without hesitation. That level of care and excellent customer service truly made our dining experience even better. Such an amazing young man, we really appreciate his kindness and professionalism. We'll definitely be back!“

“My boyfriend was craving teriyaki on a Sunday which as many of you know that teriyaki places are usually closed on Sundays. However, we saw that this place opens on Sundays (they had several banners saying that they were open on Sundays too) after the original place we wanted to check out had a sudden kitchen maintenance. This restaurant is a lot bigger than other teriyaki restaurants with booth and chair seats, plenty of big or small tables, two TVs playing different sports, and it was the temperature was perfect. They have a big menu so it's easy to see the prices and their offerings, which consists of teriyaki, soups, Chinese food, sushi and bubble tea. Their prices are very reasonable and the upcharge on fried rice is the lowest I've seen but I think there's a reason for that (it's pretty bland). The cashier lady was efficient at her job but definitely could be friendlier and I wish she wasn't super snappy, there was no real rush and we were maybe their fourth order during that time.

We opted to dine in and took our seat waiting for food. They have offer fountain drinks and bottled drinks, as well as water cups. We got our utensils and sauce cups first then our food arrived not too long afterwards. My boyfriend got their chicken teriyaki and chicken katsu combo with fried rice while I got their chicken teriyaki and California roll combo. I love that they have steamed veggies as I like to enjoy any remaining teriyaki sauce with them. The California rolls were decent, not the best but not the worst either. The teriyaki sauce is pretty good, it is a great mix of sweet and savory. They are also very generous with rice as there was a bed of under my teriyaki and two scoops. My boyfriend enjoyed the katsu and the sauce that came with it was very delicious! The only issue we had was that the fried rice had no seasoning or color, I almost thought it was white rice with some veggies at first. Other than that, a solid teriyaki joint that seemed to have a good amount of people coming in to pick up orders for the most part.“

“My friend suggested this place, and I finally had the chance to check it out. The spicy chicken teriyaki and chicken wings were absolutely amazing! Definitely the best in town. I would give it a solid 5 out of 5.You've got to try this spot if you're in the mood for some delicious Halal wings and Teriyaki.“

“this restaurant needs more location food is great!“

“Nikko is one of my go-to lunch spots. Their teriyaki chicken is the best in the valley. The portions are generous, and the sauce has a unique spice in it that I love, not your ordinary bottle variety sauce. Service is fast and always friendly.

In my most recent visit I strayed from the usual to sample their yakisoba noodles. Again, large portions for an exceptional value. It was fresh and hot. I ate it all, but I probably won't order it again, as I found the sauce too sweet. Next time back to the chicken.

Also, the gyoza are worth the splurge!“

“INCREDIBLE!! You gotta eat here. It's delicious, fresh, light and loaded with amazing flavor. Go nuts because the portions are reasonable and every dish is different. We had the perfect day to use the sunny patio and really enjoyed the presence of the super kind staff. There is easy parking behind the Angkor Market corner grocery store. It was relatively inexpensive for such a decadent meal!

What we had, good for 2-4ppl:
Fried chicken wings, 6pcs appetizer: the perfect fry on the chicken WOW!!! Must have with the papaya salad, trust me

Lemongrass Beef Skewers, 3 pcs appetizer: succulent and tender YUM!!!

Papaya Salad: fresh and perfect to pair with the fried chicken! Do it, pair it with the fried chicken wings! Choose your spiciness level carefully.

Phad Lao (chicken): lovely flavor and perfect texture, YES!!

Eggrolls, 2 piece, veggie: perfect crispiness, light and well wrapped, mmmmmm

Mango Sticky Rice: lovely way to end the meal, perfect mango!

We added on a round of Lao/Thai beer and it was heaven. We thought we had ordered so much we would have to bring some home but ended up eating every morsel.“

“Sooooo happy to finally find an authentic Cambodian only restaurant near me! The papaya salad and skewers were amazing and beautifully plated, got my spicy fix today! Anytime I’m in Federal Way you’ll find me there!“

“We catered food from Yamada Teriyaki and were blown away. The samosas were perfectly crispy and flavorful, and the House Special Fried Rice was a total hit, generously loaded with tender meat, shrimp, and vegetables, all seasoned to perfection.

Everything arrived fresh, hot, and beautifully packed. The portions were generous, and the quality was outstanding. The service was smooth, friendly, and reliable. For the price and portion sizes, the catering option is absolutely worth it.

One thing I also really like is that Mandalay Deli Mart is right next door, so it is super convenient to grab drinks, snacks, Burmese goodies, or quick deli items all in one stop.

Highly recommend Yamada Teriyaki for catering, authentic flavors, great presentation, and excellent value. We will definitely be back for more.“

“Best Chinese food and pho in the area. Wok N Pho by Safeway is always super clean, the staff is friendly and professional, and the food is consistently delicious. Our family favorites are the sweet and sour chicken and orange chicken combo, pork fried rice, and the brisket pho. The kids love it too. This is our go-to place when we want a great meal and a good experience every time.“

“The portions are HUGE!!! Food was delicious. Order at the kiosk, grab a number and staff bring it out to you. They checked on us a few times. Great service. Tip is added at the kiosk, wish it was an option after the meal. I don't think I left enough tip.“

“always have good food and good service“

“Fast, courteous service, great food and good prices. I tried the Mongolian Beef...it was fabulous! Great flavor & the beef was melt-in-your-mouth tender. I was surprised at the number of menu items available to choose from. I'll definitely be going back!“

“I recently dined at Anchovies and Salt, and I must say, it was an amazing experience! The food was absolutely delicious, showcasing the best of Vietnamese cuisine with a unique twist. Each dish was flavorful and beautifully presented, making it hard to choose a favorite. The environment of the restaurant was inviting and cozy, with a vibrant atmosphere that made for a perfect dining experience. The staff were friendly and attentive, adding to the overall enjoyment of the evening. If you're in Seattle and craving some incredible Vietnamese food, I highly recommend checking out Anchovies and Salt. You won't be disappointed!“

“So good! Food was served quickly & SO delicious. Staff was friendly and very accommodating. Quick to clear our table of empty dishes. Highly recommend! We will be back very soon!“

“The minute you walk in, the atmosphere is so alive with the music, TV and friendly welcome form the staff. The place is visually and smells clean. They are so quick in getting my order out. Only 15 minutes from the time I ordered. Food tastes great with hefty portions. Great place to enjoy Teriyaki ,Chinese and Korean cuisine.“

“This spot feels less like a restaurant and more like a community hub. Homey & welcoming.

Coming from the restaurant background, I grew to love food places that have no gimmicks and are true to their standard - Pho Liu is on top of that short list in Seattle.

I go here 3 times a week & they serve consistently high quality pho. The small bowl (pictured) is more than enough & leaves room to try their delicious apps. Fish-sauced wings, spring rolls, egg rolls are all phenomenal.

One way to tell they take care of their craft is how long the noodles can sit in the broth without releasing any starch. Fresh noodles, perfectly cooked, and well strained. Also their bean sprouts and herbs are extremely fresh. Never once have I had soggy or bitter bean sprouts here - which is more common at pho places than you’d think.

The owner family & servers here are great & kind people, as well. The subtle cues are how many regulars I’ve seen on random visits and how well the fish (in the fish tank) are taken care of.

This neighborhood place is truly one of the last pre-tech boom Seattle relics.“

“Great food and customer service“

“Fantastic food at good prices!! Great service! When the machine didn’t like, an employee offered to help, was polite, and even gave me potstickers on the house. Amazing experience. I think the only thing is the employees spirit. A smile can go a long way 🙃“

“This is not fast-they make to order, chicken tasted fresh, and was tender, not the rubber chicken you get from many establishments. I would have liked more vegetable options or greens upgrade. Many low reviews are from years ago. I work in the area and would return. I will get two meals from one order. (Note in pic the kimchi was added by me- not offered there.)“

“Service was great. The young lady taking orders was very pleasant and helpful. And just to save you some time YES! I recommend this place and I will go back.

The bad: So the spring rolls were an absolute disappointment.

(Please not the photo is was taken after the rolls sat out overnight so the lettuce is brown and wilted. That part is no fault of the restaurant. The roll was fresh upon pickup)

Per the photo I opened up the wrap and it appears that a bag of lettuce was used to create the wrap. So ultimately The wrap consist of a handful of bag lettuce (the kind with the purple cabbage and thinly sliced carrots), some rice noodles and about two shrimp.

There was absolutely no flavor. I’m guessing because the ingredients were not freshly cut as far as the vegetation. I’m used to having fresh cut carrots, cucumber and lettuce in a FRESH spring rolls. The roll was bland and unfortunately the sauce it came with was also underwhelming

On the other hand the GOOD:

Beef chicken combo was DELISH!!! portions were generous, flavor was on point! I will certainly go back for their entrees.“

“We love nori presto teriyaki. The portions for the teriyaki are huge. You definitely get your money’s worth. We also particularly love the fried rice that comes with the teriyaki, but recently the option to pick fried rice is gone from their website. Please fix this so I can have more delicious fried rice!“

“This is my favorite restaurant in the area. I'm addicted. Choice of fresh vegetables. fresh meats. Spice as you desire. Terrific price for what you get. It's a must to visit. Staff is great so please tip!“

“Pleasantly surprised by the teriyaki chicken. The food was delicious in a generous amount.

Ate in the restaurant and the food was brought out to me. Aside from a dark interior (it was already a gloomy day), the food was enjoyable.“

“Absolutely love everything we ordered. (Crispy Garlic Chicken, Pad Thai, Panang Curry). 10/10. Would definitely go back.“

“Great food and the best service .“

“Good place to eat, clean, and great looking menu“

“Went there today and had a wonderful experience. Haven't been here in awhile but hoped for the best. Had the best service I've had in awhile from this waitress with a gorgeous ponytail. Food was great and hot, definitely recommend the mango trout!“

“Really enjoyed this spot. Their Pad Thai is exactly how I like it, super saucy and hella flavorful. Definitely one of my favorite Pad Thais I've had in a while.

The Pad See Ew was decent too. Not my favorite and I think it could be a little better, but still enjoyable.

I'd come back for the Pad Thai alone“

“You know it’s good when you don’t have a microwave but you eat your leftovers for breakfast & they are almost better than when it’s fresh n’ hot. Chicken stays crispy too—which is a testament that they know how to do fried chicken. I ordered the General Tso Chicken. I would eat here again & again. Oh, & although they are in this old hotel don’t let that fool you! Next time I’ll try the chef’s recommendation (beef pho). Sorry no pic!“

“The food is always great!“

“I went here out of desperation, despite the bad star rating, not expecting a good thing. And I’m shocked to say I had the Pad Kee Mao with chicken and it was delicious!! I’ve lived in Maple Valley for 8 months and have tried other Thai places and they were terrible. I’m pleasantly surprised! We finally found a place we can get some decent Thai nearby. I will say, they are doing the atmosphere all wrong. No music, wind noise coming through the door, the place looked empty. Our server was a little old lady, I’m assuming this is a family business. But the food is good! Makes me feel bad for them. I recommend eating here, mostly for takeout. Also, their prices are really cheap. They should honestly raise them.“

“We love Trapper's a bit pricey but well worth it. Only complaint I have is we ordered the teryiaki chicken tonight with some Sushi rolls. The teryiaki chicken was very bland had not taste to it. 🤔😒“
