50 Best Asian Fusion Restaurants near Mercer Island

“Vivienne’s Bistro offers a cozy atmosphere and attentive service, but the food left me with mixed impressions.

The sesame shrimp toast had a pleasant crunch and satisfying texture, yet it fell short on delivering the distinct shrimp flavor I was hoping for.

The karaage, served with a sweet and sour sauce, lacked the juiciness and depth of flavor I was seeking, leaving it feeling somewhat underwhelming.

The fried cod was a letdown. It arrived overly oily, with a crust that crumbled apart. The seasoning was also far too salty, which masked the fish's natural flavor.

The squid ink fried rice had an intriguing look but didn’t deliver on taste. The dish was heavy with oil and salt, and the bacon flavor overpowered everything else. It wasn’t unpleasant, but it lacked the depth and seafood-forward notes I expected from a dish like this.

The short rib, however, was exceptional. Tender, juicy, and bursting with flavor, it stood out as the clear star of the menu. The sauce, while rich, added complexity, though it could be toned down slightly for a more balanced bite. This is the dish I would return for, even if the rest of the menu fell short.

Vivienne’s Bistro has great potential, and with some refinement, the food could better reflect the thoughtfulness of its ambiance and service.“

“Amazing food and staff was great!“

“Came for Happy Hour alone and decided to order each item from the bar menu and had myself a tasting menu. It was plenty of food... I really should have stopped at 3 or 4 HH portions. I highly recommend the garlic prawns, the chili cumin pork ribs, the duck spring rolls, and the tomato salad (with the salted egg). The bartender also poured me two exquisite cocktails... a sidecar and then a paloma. Yum!“

“Our goto special burger place“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Best wings in Seattle, hands down! We stopped at Golden Rooster on our way to the Seahawks game, and it was a game-changer. Walking in, the vibe was electric and welcoming, setting the tone for what would be an incredible meal. We were lucky enough to get a taste of the Korean BBQ wings (I think it was the owner who brought them over as samples!), and wow – they were beyond tasty. Those flavors sealed the deal, and we immediately ordered 30 wings, plus their sweet potato fries and some chicken strips. Everything was top-notch!

The wings were crispy, juicy, and packed with flavor, and the sweet potato fries were the perfect side. This place is a must-stop spot in Seattle, and it's officially our go-to before every Hawks game. Highly recommend Golden Rooster for anyone looking to kick off their night with amazing food and a killer atmosphere!“

“The place is very unassuming from the outside, and you could easily walk by this small establishment without noticing it. And it's a bit out of the way for tourists. But it's worth tracking down.

Got the Radical Bowl and it was great. Not only were the ingredients fresh and tasty, but the order was prepared so quickly, I barely had time to pay before the food was ready. The portion was generous and perfect; unless you have a very large appetite, you'll be satisfied.

The space is small, so dining in may be a challenge, especially if there are already customers and/or you come in a group. And I can imagine it being a lot busier during the work week. But the food is worth it.“

“Fabulous venue! Show was funny, food and drinks were great and the waitresses were fabulous.“

“Noodle soups, vermicelli bowls, so far we have order at least 10 different meals and they are all delicious!!“

“My grandsons say this is the best food they have ever eaten in their whole life. The fried chicken was perfectly crisp yet perfectly moist; the short ribs were exquisite; the pot stickers and sushi were great. We loved our flavors, food, and experience and will always come back. One grandson says he would take a plane from anywhere in the world just to come back here.“

“Buddha Bruddah catered our wedding; the service was spectacular, the food phenomenal, and our friends couldn’t quit gushing over how good. My husband looked dapper that night but not as fine as that glistening mound of mac salad.
Beyond the night of our nuptials, though, Buddha Bruddah has become our Friday night staple—a comfort food and neighborhood favorite. Nicole always has the biggest smile for us. Hallelujah for huli-huli!“

“Best Cambodian Restaurant in Seattle. Large traditional menu with non traditional items along with beer, wine, and boba“

“The food was delicious. The service was okay. The decor was meh. The bathrooms were a little sketchy. Surprisingly expensive for how low key the vibe was (about $30 for one entree, cup of drip coffee and dessert/fry bread). But I can't lie, the Japanese curry was phenomenally delicious. The fry bread wasn't bad either.“

“The Hue Style Beef Soup is Chef’s Kiss! Can’t recommend enough. Living in Belltown 15+ years, this is by far my favorite Pho, and only at Meekong! Set the bar high and is always consistent taste, quality, and (if you love #heat) a winner for sure. We’ll keep coming back and getting happily full with the Hue @Meekong. Cheers!“

“this place is awesome. good food, good drinks, good service. dang, Seattle , you got some good food.“

“One of the most interesting and flavorful combinations in the Seattle area. Amazing“

“A very nice experience today with nice service and nice ambience. I'm not a big sushi fan but there are many other nice options too here. 5 out of 5.“

“I had. The tonkatsu ramen here a few years ago, I think it has changed hands since. Today I ordered the Shibu ramen (kimchi) and enjoyed it very much. The broth and kimchi were the stars of this ramen bowl. They also sell canning jars of the fresh kimchi. The ramen is definitely worth trying if you’ve not had it before.“

“Can I live here?! Everything about this place screams fabulousness! From the delish food and sparkly foo-foo drinks, to the magical decor, to the attentive and festive team of servers and behind the scenes help. My daughter and I were so incredibly spoiled and we had such a wonderful experience. Brandon was absolutely amazing and loved his style and flair as well! A thousand thank-you’s!“

“Good vibes! ^^

Kind friendly owner. Love supporting woman owned local businesses. Clean welcoming space. Outdoor seating. Root beer. Lots of Korean food around so choose wisely :)

Recommended: Dakgangjeong (Chicken) Authentic Korean taste and big portion. If you prefer milder food you may think it’s a little spicy but that’s subjective!“

“The Chirashi was phenomenal! The assortment of sashimi was fresh, vibrant, and artfully presented. You can tell they use high-quality ingredients. It’s a great choice if you’re looking for something satisfying and elegant. I’ll definitely be back for more.“

“I’ve visited the restaurant for a few times now and I am thrilled to have a XinJiang restaurant in town, and located so conveniently in GreatWall Mall with Ranch 99. My favorite is lamb skewers, so tender and delicious. The Big Plate Chicken and Lamb Soup are also tasty and so flavorful. Especially the noodle in the Big Plate Chicken is a hit, so chewy and fresh. It definitely worth revisiting.“

“Great food and friendly service. Love that all seafood options are sustainably-sourced!“

“I place an ordering for our staff meeting, I came in early than the pick up time. While I was waiting, the lady came and handed me a free thai tea. What a world class customer service. Did I mentioned food was delicious? Price is very reasonable.“

“This place is inside the Ramada’s lobby.

Online says open until midnight, the menu says 1030p and the sign in front the restaurant says 11p. Anyways, we got there maybe 1130pm-ish and it was a one man show at this time! Welcoming and funny guy!

We ordered the wonton mein, beef pho and fried spring rolls. Everything tasted good, for a late night dinner! The wontons had that authentic flavor…it was good!

We paid in cash, but had to check the change.

Planning on doing breakfast here!“

“Great ambiance, nice food, good drinks.“

“Real beef and chicken pieces. Enough for two meals. Perfect sauce and perfect salad dressing.“

“Soy garlic chicken was pretty tasty, well cooked, and good flavor but surprised the “bowl” didn’t come with rice. FYI the side of rice is instant rice… nonetheless the value for the bowl size is great- so much chicken! Could’ve shared a regular size bowl with 2 people.

Two standing tables only- more a grab and go type place. Wish they had more proper seating and fresh rice options included.“

“Tried Ginger & Scallion and it lived up to the hype! Their rich, creamy Khao Soi is packed with bold flavors—no wonder it’s always busy.

Must-Try:
🍜 Seared Duck Khao Soi – Juicy duck, fragrant curry broth.
🥩 Beef Tenderloin Khao Soi – Tender, flavorful beef.
🍖 Oxtail – Fall-off-the-bone goodness.

Ended with Pandan & Thai Tea Tres Leches Tiramisu from San Bartolo Bake Shop—light, fluffy, and unforgettable.

If you love Khao Soi, this spot is a must!“

“Went here with my family. We had reservations so we were able to go in right away (there was a lot of people waiting). The drinks were really good and the food was awesome! Our waitress was very nice and suggested to split burger before we even asked (our family likes to share). We even made a reservation in two weeks to take other friends there! Definitely recommend!“

“Hands down the best restaurant in White Center. It’s affordable and delicious! You must come here if you want to try authentic Cambodian food. The moment you go in, the smell of fresh rolls and noodles hits your nose. The owners are very friendly and welcoming. They assisted me with the lovely choices there and treated me as if I was family. This will definitely be a place I will keep coming back to!“

“My favorite restaurant in Seattle! Hot Bop for life :)“

“My first time here, and I'll be back! I didn't call ahead, just ordered when I got there, and my chicken teriyaki was ready in about five minutes. The portion size was good for the price, and I appreciated the salad as well. Next time I'll ask for heavy sauce, but the chicken was excellent. No bad cuts of meat or gristle, and cooked enough to have a few pieces with a bit of crispness. Perfection!

Visit #2: I ordered the spicy chicken teriyaki, and it nearly melted my face off. I'm sensitive to spicy food, but still love it, so for some this might be an OK level of spice but I can't order it again. ? But the portion size was the same as lunch and it was cooked to perfection.“

“Really enjoyed grabbing lunch here! They have a great mix of food and I definitely appreciate their healthier options. Always very clean and the owners are super friendly as well. Would definitely recommend stopping by for a quick bite, especially during the workday“

“Beautiful decor great food,and super delicious food I think this will be a great addition to Belltown.“

“Very nice folks run this place! They are always so happy and kind! Great energy here! Great food! So delicious! Quick service and good prices for how much food they give you!

Parking: Has its own lot, but there are only a few spots. It's such a good place to eat that it's always full! :)

Kid-friendliness: Could not be more friendly! Not just with children, but everyone, including my service dog!

Wheelchair accessibility: There is a ramp for people in need of one.“

“Last time I ordered a super value single meal at Haidilao Seattle, it was just right! I chose the spicy hot pot with clear oil, which was spicy enough but not too irritating, and served with Angus beef, which was cooked in 8 seconds. The meat was tender and juicy, super satisfying! The portion was just right, and it wouldn't be wasted if I ate it alone, and I felt so happy after eating it~😋“

“The Calamari was the absolute best I've ever had. Their sushi rolls are very tasty.“

“We really enjoyed our time here at Grain House. The food and service are fantastic. Their O-Roll sushi and crab salad is a must try and if you are up for an adventure do try their fried banana sushi. Definitely worth a visit if you’re looking for a casual dinning ?“

“Family-owned local spot! Food comes out insanely fast, the shop aunties are adorable. Spicy chicken teriyaki is delicious (one order enough to feed me and my boyfriend), plenty of sauce, just enough sweetness of the salad dressing, rice was cooked perfectly, will come back again!“

“Great service, Great atmosphere and most of all....a great bartender! 🍻👍...love you Miss Nana!“

“Amazing food and service!“

“(had the K GRILL option) I’ve been to a lot of Korea BBQ spots and rarely are the sides AND the meat amazing typically it’s one or the other. But wow that was amazing. We had small beef feast for 2 and all the meat was AMAZING. Bean paste was AMAZING. The staff was SO helpful and delightful. Very handsome guy helped our table. It may be because of the high ceilings but the restaurant also didn’t have the super strong KBBQ smell. Which honestly was very nice! All around cannot recommend enough!“

“Absolutely amazing food & mimosas! Definitely 5 star service!“

“best Peking duck, great atmosphere, friendly staff. highly recommend the ginger onion fish fillet and lamb chops!“

“Supporting a family business has never been as enjoyable as at this hole-in-the wall cafe. You can tell the place is beloved by regulars and makes you want to become one. You immediately feel welcomed the moment you enter and the service and food quality is impeccable.

Kid-friendliness: A quiet, casual spot where you know a child could find something to eat they will enjoy.“

“I've passed this restaurant on the way to work every day for MONTHS, telling myself I'm going to stop by one day. That day was today and I could not be more pleased. Definitely recommend the chicken of course, the mandu (fried dumplings), and the spring rolls. For drinks definitely try the Honey Citron Tea; AH-mazing! I was so upset for not coming in sooner but I will definitely be back. Customer service was top tier!“

“Thanks to a jacked rotator and a shoulder injury that refuses to quit, I've become way too familiar with the polyclinic hospital this year. It's not exactly where I imagined spending my time, but there's one saving grace: this little eatery on the first floor that makes the trip almost worth it.

Their spicy Spam musubi and vanilla latte? Absolute perfection. The musubi is hands down the best I've had outside of Hawaii--it's like a warm, delicious hug from my childhood. Honestly, I've never been tempted to order anything else. When you find something this good, why complicate your life? But I have to admit, the rest of the menu does look pretty fantastic. Maybe one day I'll be adventurous... but probably not.

The space may be small, but it's always buzzing with good energy and the people that work here are awesome. If you're stuck making a polyclinic doctor's office run, this is the kind of place that makes the detour feel like a win.“

“The best Crab I ever ate in my lifetime ? amazing family Restaurant! My family will be here every month!“

“Best sushi. Joe is an exceptional sushi chef. His support staff are incredible. Vintage stereo equipment and vinyl records on the walls. Don’t miss out.“

“Spicy tuna, crispy rice, you’re tired and is chasing the dragon.“
