“Love the food but y’all forgot my rolls in my Door Dash order 😭“

“Wow great fried chicken - my brother claims it was life changing 😀. Nothing more to say except it's recommended by Oprah!“

“Sometimes a place hits just right. If you’re lucky you can get a table by the window for that epic 1st and Pike people watching. Get some braised brisket and appreciate. I liked the space with the exposed wood ceiling and old school windows. Service was timely and friendly. I look forward to coming back to try the baked fontina cheese dip appetizer or the fried bread pudding.“

“The cheese is amazing!!! It's a must each time I go to Seattle.“

“Our first visit was yesterday for lunch and we had Chicken Xiao Long Bao, Chicken pan-fried potstickers, Chicken and Vegetable Won-tons in sweet and sour sauce and Spicy (Ma la) noodles.....all were very good! The service was excellent and we enjoyed the whole experience!!“

“This location is truly exceptional! The staff is outstanding, with Daniel standing out in particular. He went above and beyond to ensure my group had a fantastic experience. I highly recommend both the ambiance and the service, especially Daniel and his remarkable hospitality!“

“They make some of the best pizza in Seattle, and honestly some of the best pizza I've had anywhere! Delicious sauce, great crust, toppings are excellent - best lunch is a couple of slices + a cookie and a Mannies :D“

“We came for the pool tournament and stayed for the steak! Absolutely incredible food! Highly recommended! Hospitality and service were top notch. From the time I gave them my card I was addressed by my first name and treated like a friend. Couldn’t ask for a better night! 5 star!!“

“Went there for an event and decided to have lunch, got seated very quickly and the server was a total sweetheart, very friendly and bubbly. Checked on me often and made sure i was doing okay. The food was amazing, i dont know how the chefs cook the bacon but i think i felt my soul leave my body! Best bacon ever!! Will be coming back over and over again. I love the service and food there.“

“This is my safe haven as a creative with celiac. The food is incredible and full of unique flavors, a rarity when it comes to gluten free. The general atmosphere is always so friendly and cosy, I love stopping by for a quick bite or hanging out getting some work done while snacking on a spam musubi. Thank you Yeobo <3“

“This was the most memorable experience I’ve ever had ordering take-out.
The owner absolutely made the experience. She talked to me the whole time she was making my food. I loved how she spoke about cooking. She just wants to make good food and put her heart into it.

Come here for the love of food.
Don’t come here expecting a regular service restaurant.
Call in order, pick up at the door.
You might have to look around quite a bit to find it.. Just have an open heart. It’s freakin delicious.“

“Food was amazing. Quick service“

“Cool vibe, friendly servers & tasty food!“

“I feel fortunate to live so close to a family-owned restaurant like Cheeky Cafe. Whether you want a sandwich, pancakes, or spam and eggs, Cheeky Cafe has something delicious for everyone and for every day. Gina and everyone here are so friendly, welcoming, and truly wonderful.
Come to enjoy my favorite food any time of day— breakfast!
And if you don’t like breakfast for dinner, my personal favorite is the coconut curry quinoa, and my wife’s favorite is the pasta carbonara. Come find your own personal favorite!“

“I absolutely loved this little gem in Kent! The restaurant has a warm, cozy, and welcoming atmosphere that immediately makes you feel at home. The owner is an incredibly kind and gracious woman, which made the experience even more enjoyable. I ordered the Ethiopian platter, and it was outstanding. The flavors were authentic, everything was perfectly prepared, and the presentation was spot on. You can tell the food is made with care. I love exploring ethnic restaurants, and this one is definitely a place I’ll be coming back to. Thank you for such a wonderful meal and your warm hospitality. I highly recommend giving this place a try!“

“Historical saloon with tasty food and drinks. Also, great atmosphere for amazing live music. Highly recommended!“

“I stopped by Oh Dang! in a Cup for a meal and was pleasantly surprised by the experience. The food was amazing, and the atmosphere had a really nice, welcoming vibe. I wasn’t sure at first whether I wanted to wait outside or sit by the bar, but I ended up playing a few games while I waited.

Natty was especially helpful and gave me some great recommendations from the menu. Natty and the rest of the Black Cat staff were friendly, attentive, and made the experience even better. I really enjoyed my visit and would definitely recommend!“

“Dough Zone did not disappoint! I’m not sure how authentic it is, but it was a great family friendly spot, and I’d rate it 8/10. Everything we ordered was delicious, and every dish was full of flavor. The pork xiao long bao was so good that we had to order another round! 😋 Definitely worth a visit if you’re craving great dumplings and comforting Chinese food.“

“We had an amazing dinner! Every dish was delicious - highly recommend!“

“We were looking for a new Chinese restaurant for celebrating Father's Day. Thought we couldn't go wrong with a place that shared a name with me 😉 this is a very good Cantonese restaurant tucked into the corner of the factoria shopping strip.

We ordered chicken fried rice, beef chow fun, Chinese sausage clay pot, shrimp wonton noodle soup, and braised pork belly. Overall the food was very good. The chow fun noodles were lacking on seasoning but the kitchen stir fried them again with a bit more sauce.

I will definitely come back here for future orders. I'm glad to have found this gem in factoria.“

“Nice small space with great Korean hybrid food. 5 stars here for the salad medley and fermented pickles.“

“In one word, Delicious! The photos do not do the food justice. The food is fresh, beautiful, quick and scrumptious! The portions are generous. The entire family enjoyed their meal. Highly recommend for bento, poke and the rest of the menu, as Donburi House is a new favourite.“

“This is a hole-in-the-wall type of place in Chinatown, which, in my experience, is usually the best. Gan Beo didn't disappoint. The place is just big enough for a bar and a few tables, with the kitchen in the back. The atmosphere is friendly and cozy. The bartender/hostess was very friendly and helpful. We just ordered a couple of simple dishes to go - ong choy (a.k.a. morning glory) in garlic sauce (ong choy is pretty hard to find) and fried tofu. The food was great. I'm sure they would have been even better if we ate there. Will definitely be back.“

“House of Eve is located in one of the newer buildings at South Lake Union. Recommended by a friend, the restaurant is charmingly inviting and modern despite being in SLU concrete jungle. Kudos to the designer. All our food is precisely prepared and delicious. Our server is sweet and helpful answering my questions. A service charge of 20% is automatically added. I believe they have validated parking, but we found free street parking on a Sunday.

Fun fact: From the first moment I saw our waiter, I thought that guy is a performer. At the end of our meal, I asked if he was a dancer. He said he is and is just started to get back into it, and that I made his day when I said he looks like a dancer!

The Food:
Salmon and Pesto Sandwich, $32 – 5 Stars
A sizable slab of wild-caught salmon is expertly grilled and justifies the price. Paired with pesto aioli, baby kale, arugula, and tomato, with side of perfect fried potatoes, I can order this dish again and again.

Duck Duck Goose, $36 – 5 Stars
Pan-fried duck breast, roasted carrots, baby potatoes are wonderfully seared and beautifully plated with piping of orange glaze. Everything tastes as good as it looks.

Brussels Sprouts, $16 – 5 Stars
These are deep fried, mixed with sriracha hot honey, and covered with pickled onions. These are mischievously tasty. The goat cheese is served on the size per my request.“

“Wow great fried chicken - my brother claims it was life changing 😀. Nothing more to say except it's recommended by Oprah!“

“We left another location and came here! We know Kent Dough Zone is best service, best location, BEST FOOD!

They took us last minute with only 25 min till close.
The servers were very polite and accommodating (even though it was basically closing time)
I came in with 3 teenagers

We had two spicy mala noodles, two dan dan noodles, two orders sweet and spicy garlic chili pan fried chicken wontons, and hot & sour chicken wontons, oh and a green onion pancake.

Everything was so good as always and they even gave complimentary pork and crab soup dumplings.which reminds me
We also ordered the chicken xio long bao (chicken soup dumps)

Such a great place
All that under $80

Best place ever
Thank you so much

Didn’t get photos cause we ate as soon as they brought it out lol“

“U know i lived here so long and never tried ezelles and I finally did today.im glad I did. Chicken was juicy,breading was crispy,all was seasoned well,potato salad was good and roll was fluffy and delicious I will definitely order a half dozen next time. I preferred the spicy over original but they were both good. I will definitely be back
My cat inspected everything for poison and all was clear lol“

“Wow great fried chicken - my brother claims it was life changing 😀. Nothing more to say except it's recommended by Oprah!“

“A great rooftop deck for enjoying a cocktail and feeling the city around you. Unlike a high rise rooftop where you’re paying extra for vibey drinks 100-feet above the street, this is a second floor rooftop in the heart of Capital Hill. Also one of the best boozey slushies, and they actually have booze in them. Most of the cities boozy slushy‘s are SLUSHIES with a little booze. These are proper cocktails.“

“Very beautiful and fun experience with a vast selection and large portions.“

“The cheese sandwich was so gooey and tasty!“

“Very good food , hoping that the waiting time at dinner is less because when we try to eat last night the waiting time is 2hrs ,so we left and come back next day at after lunch like 1pm and the waiting is better and took us less than 30mins.“

“Boiling Point is fantastic, and their service is even better! We had a party of seven, including kids, and the staff took such great care of us. Everyone was friendly, attentive, and made sure we had everything we needed. We had a wonderful dining experience and will definitely be back!“
