Very hard to find a good and close to authentic northern Chinese food in Seattle. Owners are friendly and nice. Love the handmade noodles, marinated ducks, chicken etc.

First time customer but officially a fan! We came in on Christmas for some calamari and scallion pancake wraps. The flavors both of both were EXCELLENT-the scallion wraps had the best sauce, with egg and romaine inside. The cashier was so nice and professional, and the staff was on top of cleanliness and had hand sanitizer at the ready for customers. Next time we return, we will be getting the duck wings-according to another customer, that is one of their highlights. I would love to dine in when it is safe.

This place is Chinese AF. I love that about it. I stopped by to order takeout, and the woman handling the orders greeted me in Chinese. Although I’m half-Chinese, I can’t speak the language. She didn’t speak much English, so we order by pointing at the menu and also with her using a translation device.After about 5 min of this, I’m able to order the beef combo noodle soup, duck gizzards, beef tripe, and a pancake. I honestly was just so appreciative about how patient and kind the staff was, despite the language barrier. That alone is enough for me to want to return.As for the food itself, it was such a nice and filling meal. The beef combo noodle soup had lovely warm spices, and the housemade noodles had a good chew to them. The duck gizzard and the tripe were tender and well-seasoned. Although I had ordered a plain pancake, the lady was nice enough to upgrade my pancake and added a marinated egg, bean sprouts, and a savory sauce to make it a pancake roll for FREE!Nice, attentive, and patient service. Good food. I’d recommend this place any day.

This spot has the nicest owners! Their hospitality is what got me come and to check out their restaurant. The food was amazing but the service feels like you're just back home.

We came in here for lunch here the first time today. My friend had the Oxtail Noodles and I had Lamb Noodles, both served in broth with vegetables.The meats were perfectly cooked and tender, the broth was flavorful abd balanced but the noodles..... the noodles were SO GOOD!I think they make the noodles in-house because they were so fresh and perfectly cooked. I just got back to work and I'm already thinking about having the noodles again.I think the owner seated and served us. She is a very nice, sweet lady!

Authentic northern Chinese noodle house. High-quality and clean, it is my monthly, if not weekly to-go place for lamb soup (a must) and a few packages of cool dishes to go home with. Beef is their specialty and I will definitely give it a try when I am tired of their lamb soup. I also love their braised pork feet. Saved me time to clean and cook for long hours. The ambience in the sitting area maybe a little off, but the food is definitely ace! No MSG!!

We had the worst experience with them. Ordered a delivery, which did not arrive until 5 hours later. Ruined our night.

We just got home and I just tasted the beef and tendon noodle soup and it was so tender and delicious. Chef was so nice and waiter too. Waiter had a bit of a language barrier but that's ok. He got a tablet to translate what he didn't understand because I had couple questions before ordering. The chef then came out and explained the quality of meat to what will be more suitable for myself and my toddler. I'm glad I went with the chefs recommendation. Also, I'm so glad they don't use msg and the broth is an actual bone broth not any artificial powder of soup base. For the previous review he mentioned the broth was oily but mine was not the case. So, not sure what he ordered. The restaurant was very clean and I loved their wood tables and chairs. Very authentic. The wait is longer then the norm because they make the handmade noodles and it's a lot of work since I have seen it done before. So, I didn't mind waiting but my toddler was getting unruly so we left with our Togo order. We were outside playing with the coin machine toys and they came out and gave us our order. I've been to all the restaurant in Great Wall mall shopping mall. And literally 90% of them have horrible customer service and we always leave with a bad taste even tho food was decent. There's another noodle place there and they are always busy but customer service is terrible and bathroom was always dirty. So, now that I tasted this restaurant I would go here from now on whenever I'm at great wall shopping mall. Keep up the good work and great service guys! My only recommendation would be to have music playing because the tv connection was circulating the whole time due to bad internet connection. :)
Great food, reasonable price, slow service. Our order got mixed up with others twice during the stay.

Very authentic & presentation was nice. Flavor was to mild for our taste. Definitely worth a try if your in the Great Wall shopping center. Spring Rolls are delicious.

Super good food. The price is even better and the customer service is excellent!!! I had the beef stew and my son had the seafood one!

When you're going to a restaurant, you wanna enjoy your meal, the whole experience package, right? So here's my honest response. The lamb soup base was good, flavor was there, no doubt, very close to China authentic way but a little salty, not fitting the healthy categories. The beef broth was way too oily, I don't understand how hard it could be to make broth cleaner and clear, Jesus, really? Stewed beef and lamb was good though, but the noodle, the owner mentioned it several times it was hand made and how good it is, I think they used the wrong flour, which makes the noodle no any different. The restroom was quite disgusting, and fridges outside were packed with ice, floor was packed with spilled whatever it was. So, basically, this is a Chinese joint after all, you'll see chef back there carrying crying grandchildren and whatever the f*** is going on.
