“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!“

“Underrated Teriyaki and Korean food restaurant with easy take out. Best teriyaki on Rainier and perhaps in town. The only fault that it is closed on Sundays. Quite delicious food options. This is the place you want to go for a delicious meal.“

“Walked by the night before and didn't have time to pop in after work, but took note of the cool looking new spot in GTown. Checked out the menu and my mind (and belly) wouldn't allow me to go another day without experiencing the enoki fritters, so a late lunch ensued with fritters and street corn today. Ridiculously tasty, will be back with friends and family to try the rest of the menu and I'm sure you'll be serving my coworkers (repeatedly) as well. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐“

“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!“

“This is a great teriyaki place. The teriyaki in particular is fantastic, and awesome fried rice as well. It's a small shop, not many tables, probably not the kind of place that you want to hang out and eat at if you're looking for atmosphere, but you are certainly welcome to grab a table if you so choose. People here are plenty friendly, but they are often very busy, so it can feel rushed, but they're just trying to make sure everybody gets service. They are a bit pricey, but what isn't in Seattle these days. I recommend getting the teriyaki, and get it to go.
Honorable mention to the awesome pork fried rice“

“High quality food made fresh at an affordable price. Hard to beat.
I ordered a Chicken bahn mi which was flavorful.
Chicken had grilled flavor, pickled vegetables are fresh and full of flavor but not overwhelming. Bread is firm but not overly hard. Sauce is tasty, creamy, tangy and salty. Would go again for the same food.“

“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.“

“I’ve lived on Alki since 1989. I’ve seen many restaurants come and go from this location. Lotus on the Beach is the best of them all. The ability to pick from a variety of Vietnamese and Thai dishes is its strength. The owner and staff welcome any and all critiques of the food and service.“

“My first time in and really didn’t have many expectations but was blown away by the friendly staff. Ordered papaya salad w/ tofu. Tofu came fried to perfection in my book. Requested some fish sauce, the server asked if I would prefer fish dressing, big smile on my face :). Ordered a (banh-mi) sandwich w/ tofu, tofu was a little soft for my liking but had great flavor and a overly fair amount of ingredients, two thumbs up 👍. I received a side of fish dressing I used some chilly paste in it, the other server asked if I would like to have the chilly oil… ohh man was I happy with that suggestion!! Loved it!! Would recommend for an authentic flavor and palates. Will return and try more. Super excited to have a very good pho place here at the beach!! Thanks for doing what y’all doing there!!“

“My son and I love pho, and on day after his dental appointment next door, we wondered over here and discovered this place.
My first impression is that this place has an inviting, home-like feeling. They bake some pastries/donuts fresh themselves.
The pho was a hit for my son, and we thanked the lady who said it was her very own (or family?) recipe? That was our first visit, so I can't quite remember exactly 😅
I tried their breakfast sandwich and it was delicious. Just the right amount, too.
I'm all about customer service and genuine people. And I can tell these guys have a passion for what they do.
We are always here when we come to this area 🌿🍜🍩🍽🥢“

“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!“

“My partner and I came in and was impressed by the taste of their pho broth. If you've been to Vietnam or remember mom's homemade pho, this is exactly what I got from this place. Easily my personal favorite restaurant to indulge when I want pho and amazing spring rolls.
Don't let the exterior or interior intimidate you, because their food is amazing. The interior atmosphere is reminiscent to how older Vietnamese restaurants looked like pre-2008 and made me remember fond memories.“

“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!“

“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.“

“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.“

“Had a late flight into Seattle, checked in and needed something to eat an hour before they closed. I ordered the chicken yakisoba noodles… and BBAAAABBBYYYYYYYY… these are the best noodles I have ever had! And I only took one bite so far!! SOOOO GOOOODDDD!!!!“

“I love this place.
It's delicious, always fresh, always quick, and the staff are very nice. They work really hard here to do their best, there is parking in the garage for free, they have a bomb drink selection, they give generous serving sizes, they have a vast menu of options. I genuinely have no complaints.
Support local businesses that are killing it like this one :)“

“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.“

“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.“

“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!“

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.“

“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!“

“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 🙃“
