“Oh my God, the gluten skewers and potato noodle soup are just too good. The gluten skewers are mouth wateringly charred, coated with flavor, and very crave worthy. The dumplings are melt in your mouth, and the potato skewers are good as well. Skip the spicy peanuts, they're too salty. The rice cakes are just sweet, and not enough as a complete dish. The price point is incredible; you can comfortably eat for two within 50. The ambience is casual, but clean and spacious.“
“This place is amazing if you visit in person! We ordered once during the pandemic and wasn’t impressed, but decided to give it another try. We were not disappointed! The menu is pretty extensive. We ordered an assortment of skewers (our favorites were the pork belly, beef and fat, and chicken gristle) which were all nicely cooked and had great flavor. We also got a side of cold cucumbers which were refreshing and slightly tart / sweet and the spicy rice noodles. My husband loved the noodles which were very comforting to eat alongside the skewers. Everything tasted very fresh, was served quickly, and decent in portion. We hit $88 and the waitstaff gifted us with a shrimp dish, which was also very yummy. After the meal, staff also gave us two yakult drinks to wash it all down. The service was also great - water and napkins were provided without us having to ask. So glad we decided to stop by! We will definitely be back to try more things!“
“It had been at least 5 years since we've last been to Din Tai Fung. We enjoyed our meal. I think I liked the Shrimp & Kurobuta Pork Spicy Wontons the most out of all the things we've selected. For dessert, we loved the Chocolate & Mochi Xiao Long Bao, and I could have finished an order of 5 on my own because of how good it was. I'm not sure when we'll be back, but I eventually want to try everything on the menu at least once.“
“I am constantly in search of good hot pot places in Seattle. While Hai Di Lao has been my go-to choice, after a meal at Qiao Lin it is definitely rising the ranks on my hot pot list and has the potential to overthrow hai di lao. During our visit, my friends and I chose the four-broth option, featuring two mild selections (tomato broth, pork bone broth) and two spicy options (Chongqing spicy broth, pepper pork broth). The waiter told us that the pepper pork broth was not as spicy but we found it to be the spiciest of the lot. We ordered the beef combo and the presentation was one of the best I've seen at hot pot. The combo arrived on a golden cow and even had a cool fog experience for the first few minutes it was on the table. Every cut of beef on that platter was a delight, especially the Wagyu. Since the platter was pretty filling we only ordered a few other items: quail eggs, skewers, noodles, and meatballs. These were good but honestly didn't compare to the wagyu from the beef platter. The wait staff were exceptionally friendly and responsive throughout our entire dinner. Their patience was notable especially when they graciously waited for us to finish our meal and didn't push us at all even though we were the last party to leave. I will definitely be back to Qiao Lin, primarily for the remarkable beef platter and the commendable service.“
“I absolutely love this place. Spendy? Yes, but the quality of this food is exceptional and clearly shows why it is spendy. I have gotten to know the staff as well as me and my family are regulars! For me, this is the only hot pot place I will go to in Seattle. I know everytime I come in I am getting a superb meal.Vegetarian options: You don't have to order meat at all. I bring vegetarian friends over and we split the pots to make sure no cross contamination, and that their soup base is vegan.“
“We ordered through DoorDash, I was craving like comfort Chinese food and they really delivered. The dry style beef chow fun was one of the best I’ve had in recent memory - the rice noodles were super fresh and soft and the beef perfectly seasoned. We also had salt and pepper pork chops and General Tao’s Chicken. Both had big tender bites of meat and good crispy breading that’s not too thick. Portion sizes were excellent too, enough for leftovers. This is our new favorite Chinese spot.“
“Is this in the backrooms of Seattle? Yes. This is in an old mall in Seattle that's 3/4 abandoned and empty. The only heart of that building is now Din Tai Fung where you can have the best dumplings on the West Coast. My partner and I showed up without a reservation. It waw a small wait to sit at the bar. I would have liked to see plates of (12) dumplings in stead of (10) but that's because I'm paying $15 for an order. more than $1 per dumpling is a sad reality but worth every penny if you're looking for damn good dumplings and a bit of an experience. Come hungry and ready to spend $60 per person on dumplings, apps, and drinks.“
“One of my favorite restaurants in West Seattle. The Chinese food they serve here is absolutely incredible for a bar. I also love the interior styling to make it look like a tiki bar. The drinks are colorful and come in fun glasses. The bartenders are also great“
“We got the boiled beef tripe mixed it’s good If you like spicy and numb. You definitely need to eat with rice. The portion is good to share with friends. We are two people, we order one dish and two bowls of rice. But if you’re a big party you can order various dishes to share. We will coming back again for sure.“
“To be honest, this wasn’t for me. I did not enjoy the noodles I had at all. Although the honey chicken wings were probably the best wings I have ever had in my life, they’re really crispy and full of flavor. I would highly recommend them above anything else.“
“I had beef stuffed jianbing, lunch mate had spam and potato jianbing. Passed on the duck giblet stew. Some refer to these as Chinese crepes. Very filling.. I will go back.Parking: Find a pay lot and walk or take the Light Rail or a bus. Walking distance from Light Rail station.“
“I moved to ID just to be within walking distance of this amazing place. This is my favorite food in all of ID!!! There’s not a single bad dish on this entire menu. No matter what time you order or who’s working, it’s always fantastic. The meats are always cooked perfectly, the noodles exquisite and the quality of their veggies are S+ They’re very accommodating to food requests and the ladies up front are always so kind!“
“By far the best food I had in Seattle!!!The portions are plentiful and it’s really, really delicious!!The mapo tofu is filled with very soft tofu, and as soon as you take a bite, you get a really delicious Mala flavor, and it's just a very impressive taste...? The fried chicken is warm and crispy, and the delicious seasoning is evenly coated, and it's not chewy at all, and it's just really delicious! And if you eat the noodles as is and add a lot of chili oil, it tastes really refreshing without the need for hangover soup!! It's just really delicious haha“
“Omg. The food was amazing. I had the Kang Pao Beef - incredible! My wife had the Eggplant and garlic sauce. Wow! I normally don't think Chinese food is good. This was surprising. Very kind host staff as well.Dietary restrictions: I'm gluten free and the waitress was very helpful making everything with Gluten free soy sauce.“
“After getting hand made noodles in Oakland, I was seriously craving some upon my return. Dumpling the noodle satisfied this craving and made it into my list as a vegetarian spot for going on dates. Absurdly good food, with one split place of the chili vegetarian lamen, mushroom buns and the shiitake bokchoy dumplings I felt as if I’d been through an entire feast with my partner.Ingredients, presentation and price is all incredible for the value. One of my favorites!“
“Love this place! Seating is a little tight because it's so popular but their food is pretty good! Very affordable and always consistent with the taste and flavor. I would recommend but I don't want others to visit so I don't have to wait. lol“
“This is a gem. The service staff was very attentive, kind, and friendly. It was clear their customers are important to them. We enjoyed the walnut shrimp and egg rolls. It felt like we got to experience a bit of true Seattle history at one of the oldest chinese restaurants in the city (1935). All of the thank you cards, photos, articles, and nice messages to the team over the years along the wall make it clear that the owners and team care about community and service. We felt it to. Thank you Tai Tung team!“
“Sooo fast and good! Got takeout to reheat for dinner and it was so delicious omg. It was ready in 5 minutes when I walked in. The worker was very kind and welcoming, and helped us with the menu. SO MANY OPTIONS!! And the prices are the best you’ll find in this area for food. Every meal came with salad and rice, the atmosphere was super nice and clean. Highly recommend for takeout or dine in. They had tons of drink options too!Vegetarian options: Lots of vegetarian options, the tofu is delicious and the vegetables are so fresh and yummy“
“This was such a treat. My husband is heavily into Chinese cooking and particularly loves siuhchuan and I am gluten free and can never eat Chinese out with him. Not only were most dishes available gluten free but the food was phenomenal. In the top 3 best meals I've had in Seattle and we eat at a lot of restaurants. Highly recommend. Just don't do what I did and rub your eye after.Dietary restrictions: Lots of gluten free options.“
“Came here on a Sunday night for dinner and ordered off the happy hour menu. Most of the tables were full despite making reservation. We ended up sitting at the bar. We had five items: Dan Dan noodles, chicken wings, broccoli, shrimp egg roll and pork short ribs. Everything came out quickly and was so delicious! This is definitely elevated Chinese food. Dan Dan noodles has such savory aroma that it was love at first bite. ? The waiters were definitely busting their chops to get everyone served. Will definitely come back to try other menu items.“
“The food is good - I ordered takeout and picked it up on my way to the train station. Cute packaging….but there are no eating utensils, napkins or even sauce for my dumplings!!! I understand not including especially utensils and napkins - that turns into garbage. But at least ask if one needs it when you hand over the order! And for sure include the sauce with the dumplings. Who ever heard of such a thing??“
“- Great food but no duck/pig blood-We came here tonight for the all-you-can-eat option, and I had to get on the waitlist ahead of time since they usually get busy at night. We waited for maybe 15 minutes there before we got our seats. While waiting, you can grab their complimentary snacks and enjoy if you are too hungry.You can pick two kinds of lamb and two kinds of beef for all you can eat, and we never figured out which is which lol! And for seafood and fried appetizers, they always get me a set amount no matter how many I want (which is funny). We don't really need to order 3 rounds, but I did order the golden fried bun and the fried mochi for the last round since they gave us so little each time. We were disappointed that we didn't see any duck blood or pig blood on menu since it's a must for hot pot :(! Btw, we didn't get the sauce bar as their appetizers aren't very appetizing and we aren't interested in other stuff either.I was super full afterward, and my husband skipped two meals after and lost weight :D! I got some soft serve on the way out and the texture is between soft serve and a slush haha! We later came back for their $39.99 weekday lunch combo for 2 and found the amount of food more appropriate for the two of us.“
“The dumplings looked like it was made awhile ago and kept steaming in a to go container.I ordered the pork chive dumplings and they were.. subpar at best. Not even tenderness throughout, and little flavorings. I couldn’t really taste the chive. The pork itself was good though.“
“I really like this place for its Beef Biang Noodles. There pretty decently spicy, and have the usual chewy noodles your expect. I usually get the one without soup. They also have some decent spicy wontons. Beyond those two, I think their other stuff is pretty okay (I had the pot stickers before, and they were okay). You can allay get milk tea and smoothies here, but I don't think they're known for them. I did like my Honeydew Smoothie here, though. Overall, I do recommend checking it out, if you're in the area.“
“Update 2023 sep:Ordered Braised pork rice, the braised pork was so little on the top and the rice texture was so wrong. Give 4 stars cuz the flavor is alright and I wish they read this review and have better quality control. A year ago was really good.2022 reviewFoods here are SCRUMPTIOUS and v authentic Taiwanese food!! cant believe I didn’t know this place earlier!“
“Second place In Seattle that my family goes to often . It feels like a hole in the wall place but it's an atmosphere we enjoy. Loved everything. Well first thing I didn't love was the fried chicken in salty egg yoke. I might just not be a fan of salty egg yoke. It didn't have much “
“Great place for lunch or dinner. The food is delicious and the portions are bigger than other restaurants. The vege ingredients are fresh and cooked to crunch. The owner, Lee, is very friendly and genuinely cares about your dining experience. I recommend this restaurant for dine in or to go.“
“Im sitting in Youngs waiting for my to go order....the 2nd one in a weeks time. Figured I should leave a review. Youngs is our go to now for all things Chinese. Its not perfect but it is really good. My partner told me its his favorite. Guess its mine too! The fried rice is the best Ive had in a long time. Their sauces are done well...sweet and tangy. Ive just discovered their Yor Wonton soup...love it. They must do their bbq pork in house...its delicious and a must try. I dont love that its served on a bed of lettuce...but aside from that its wonderful. I lived up the street from this place for YEARS and didnt find it until I moved out of the area. Bummer. But...distance wont keep us away. We're huge fans. One day we will give breakfast a try too. Thanks Youngs!“
“Adorable mom & pop place with classic tea house balcony and solid food. Staff was extremely friendly and food was tasty and freshly prepared. Good mix of dim sum staples and classic Hong Kong and Macau dishes like the baked casserole and coffee/tea mixed (if you really know HK diner food then you know this iconic beverage). Quiet and no wait so give them a try next time you're huddled outside next door!“
“If you're in the mood for some delicious Vietnamese cuisine, Rainier Restaurant is the place to go. The broken rice with pork is definitely a standout dish - it's absolutely delicious. Cocktails and drinks here is really as well. The staff is friendly and overall it's a great place to eat.❤️ ?“
“Good terriayaki, constantly the same everyday! I have eaten more terriayaki than most people, I know teriyaki, and I'm just starting to share my thoughts because I have some extra time in my life. One thing you can expect from this place is constantancy in their food. The teriyaki chicken is juicy, and not rubbery meaning they know how to grill it!. The spicy chicken is cooked with love by infusioning their spicy sauce by wok and adding fresh cut onions, just by taking the time to wok it tells you they are not lazy. The other things on their menu are decent and is above the standards in Seattle's terriayaki world.Serving size is decent, and you will have a little extra if you are the average person with a appetiteThe only issue I have is price. You decide for yourself......I ordered:1 spicy chicken1 terriayaki chicken1 order gyoza2 coke bottlesCost= $46.80“
“My Taiwanese parents thought all of the noodle soups we ordered were delicious! And they have high standards. Not easy to find great food like North Noodles and Dumplings. We are so glad we decided to try it out last night. Taiwanese beef noodle soup, chive dumplings/ beef stew.... Sorry I don't remember the English names. And my son loved the won tons and xiao long Bao as well. Service was excellent too! She was busy but still kind and friendly to us.“
“Food is excellent but on take out orders there is too much sauce and leaks through the takeout container into the bag. Last time there was hole in the bag and the sauce dripped everywhere before I realized. Need better containers or to use less sauce.“
“This has been our go-to for Chinese take-out since we moved to the neighborhood several years ago. We order regularly from Chopsticks and our mixed family of vegetarians and omnivores, adults and kids, has been happy with pretty much everything we've tried and especially with the variety of flavorful tofu dishes. The service is friendly and reliable.Vegetarian options: Plenty of vegetarian options across the various sections of the menu.“
“Ordered several different dishes, though you can taste the same chicken in all dishes, and all are pretty salty. Wish they could just leave the teriyaki sauce aside for the customers to dip on their own. Also, they could add more variety to the flavors/dishes rather than just using the same meat across the board.“
“I love this place so much. The food is regional bar food in a home cooking style made with lots of love. The bar seating is excellent for chatting and it is such a fun spot. My biggest complaint is that they are tiny so you can't always get a spot if you have a group but that also feels like part of what makes it feel homey and special.Oh, and if you want to be basic and order the orange chicken, no one will judge and it is delicious.“
“Hm, after leaving Taiwan 2 weeks ago and eating here, 19Gold is reasonably taiwanese.You can’t beat the prices in Taiwan. Bowl of Beef rice is $2-3/bowl vs stateside for $8. Plus the motherland is better typically in flavor. 3.5 star out of 5.The Mala noodles? I don’t like the 5-spice but it’s good. Comparable to the motherland. 3.75 star.The beef noodle? Solid enough 3.75 star. The popcorn chicken? Very good, 4 star. The fried Chinese doughnut? Average 3.5 star. Good execution in frying it but it’s off somehow, probably the dough. The green milk tea with grass jelly? Very good, 4.5 star.Food overall? 4 star. Price and value? I’ll round up to 5 bc Seattle is expensive and everything else in Taiwan is half or 1/3 the price so you can’t compare.“
“I came in at the last 5 minutes because i didn’t notice the time. The staff were very accommodating and had my food ready in less than 5 mins. I got home and sat down to eat and let me tell you, this is the best teriyaki I’ve had in a long time! Well done!!“
“Super authentic Sichuan food??PARKnSHOP Shopping→Shu 1, Shu 2, one-stop dining is so funTheir dishes are rarely over-the-top, and we recommend [Small Stir-fried Pork] [Mao Xue Wang] [Griddle Pot Fat Sausage] [Stir-fried Chicken Gizzards with Sour Beans]The basic traditional Sichuan cuisine is quite authentic and delicious, and spicy enough! The portion is huge!The only one that got me wrong was the [Double Pepper Fish Head]White water fish smells fishy and tastes bad. Problems with fish. Seasoning??“
“Came from Vegas and visited the woodland park zoo. This was 1 min away from the zoo and we were famished from walking all day! And we were not disappointed! Portions sizes are huge and plenty for a family of 4. We ordered the shrimp fried rice, almond fried chicken, and beef broccoli and they were so delicious! Almond fried chicken was crispy and tender and the sauce paired well with the chicken. The beef was super tender and the brocccoli was not too soft and had a crunch (which we like!). And don't forget the fried rice! They were so yummy and paired well with everything we ate! Soo goood! Friendly family owened business. Owner was super nice and suggested places for us to visit so we wouldn't get stuck in traffic. Will definitely stop by again whenever we are in town!“
“Located in SLU, this is a pretty decent Asian fusion noodle spot opened up by owners from Plenty of Clouds. The concept features a slightly more upscale format for noodle dishes of dry and wet varieties, as it doubles up as a bar with some cocktails. I personally tried the Wanza Mian which had ground pork, numbing spices, chickpea, and spicy and tangy broth. The noodles were flavorful though a little bit on the softer side, but the dish itself is very hearty and not too spicy. I liked it overall, but the dish is on the saltier side. Also, $19 for not that much food is on the higher end of the pricing, and they also just raised the prices so that did not help. I had to get half of the dish to-go because I was not able to handle that much salt in one seating, and I eat out often enough to tolerate salt decently well. Service is fast and more casual, so the meal was a relatively quick yet enjoyable one. I may try a dry noodle dish in my next visit and see if anything changes.“
“Don’t let the unassuming looks of this place deter you, try it!I ordered pickup from this place for the first time last night. The service was extremely friendly, food was done when expected and it was super fresh and tasty!!What really impressed me is that when I placed my order, they offered to bring my food out to my car when I arrived. I am disabled, which they had no idea of knowing, so saving those extra steps really makes a huge difference to me! The employee who came out was also masked, which I appreciate, since I am immune compromised and high risk for respiratory illness.Oh, and did I mention the food is reasonably priced? I was able to get a huge portion of veggie fried rice, steamed rice, and egg flower soup for under $20 before tip. I will definitely be returning!“
“Absolutely delicious! We got the fried pork dumplings, beef stew (extra spicy) and noodle soup with chicken leg (less spicy). They were both very tasty. The spice level for the beef was wonderful, flavorful and not overly spicy. The chicken soup was very savory and they both had a great amount of noodles! It's always so disappointing to go places and they give you such a small amount of noodles, here that absolutely was not the case. Eat here, it's worth it!“
“I visited Little Ting's for lunch on a Sunday and had an excellent dining experience. The dumplings were bomb! The service was top notch, as well.At the time I visited, there were open tables to accommodate our party. I only saw one delivery driver come to the resturant to pick up an order, which I only mention because so many other reviews state that Little Ting's prioritizes delivery orders.I think the cherry on the sundae (other than the delicious Garlic Green Beans) was the to-go boxes and ADORABLE reusable bag they gave us to take our leftovers home in.Thabk you for a wonderful dining experience, Little Ting's! I'll see you soon!Wheelchair accessibility: There are no steps at the entrance or inside the resturant. The tables seem as though they could easily accommodate a wheelchair, and the resturant has enough space to create flexibility in regards to the table arrangements.“
“malatang. you have my whole heart. this is my favorite place ever to get soup, and I think you can tell by how crowded it always is during meal time. only good things to say.. it is delicious, not too expensive if you know how to portion out a meal for yourself, and sometimes you can't get a seat without hovering over someone's table for an awkward amount of time. but you give and take I suppose. In this case, I find it to be worth it. sometimes the restaurant is also humid, so you get sweaty while eating. I also recommend not wearing white or anything you love that might accidentally get splashes with oil. but, love this place with my whole heart, always hot and tasty. ?“
“Didn't know that the regent bakery served Chinese food. This is a hidden gem ?Spice-perfect General Tso's chicken, shrimp-packed Singapore fried rice, and light, fruit cake satisfied every craving. Super fast service too - perfect for a busy day. #HighlyRecommend“
“My friend took me here because she swore it was her favorite noodle place in Seattle. And boy, it did not disappoint. I ordered, the pork and vegetable dumplings which were alright. And the beef Sichuan noodles (spicy).I normally enjoy a medium spice level but sheesh was this spicy (in the best way!). The broth was rich and spicy. So good that I ignored the spice and had to finish the bowl. I'm not a very big eater and I'd suggest sharing if you have the option.I did enjoy the fact that you can select a few toppings to customize your soup.Will be back again!“
“Simple food made well. Stopped in for some take out (that's the only option here), and found a diversmenu on the wall. Seems not everything is available, but my choice of chicken and duck on rice made the cut. I also had a choice of coke or sprite. That's it. They prepare the food right in front of you - don't get picky about boneless meat! They chop up your bird with hefty swings of a cleaver and ina few minutes, you're out the door. Aside from spitting rib bones once in a while, the food was great. Simple seasonings, simple presentation....and not screwed up in any way whatsoever. They even price things so that - after tax - your final prices are rounded to 00. I'll be back“
“Honestly I am scared to share this place with anyone. It's great value and delicious. There's a huge variety of things to try, so much that I have my next 3 orders already nailed down. They have Chinese American, teriyaki, and Korean food! The owner was so sweet and friendly as well. Just a great time overall. Katsu rating was a 8.5/10 pretty darn good, crispy, not dry and well seasoned!“
“This is my favorite spot in Greenwood. The phos and the beef salad are excellent. And, the portions are big. Each time we visit I leave very full. The first time we came on a Friday around 6:30 and had to wait about 45 minutes. Since then, we've arrived earlier at 5:30, and there hasn't been a wait. So, it's all about coming it at the right time. Even if you do have to wait, I think it's worth it.“
