One of my OG, long-time favorite Hong Kong spots in Seattle. It's a little restaurant tucked away in Chinatown, easy to miss unless you already know it's there -- but absolutely worth seeking out. Their rice bakes are incredible, the beef brisket dishes are consistently tender and flavorful, and their chow fun is hands-down my favorite in the entire city. They nail the Hong Kong-style classics every time, with that nostalgic, home-cooked feel you just don't find often anymore. Right now they're running a borscht soup special, and it tastes exactly like the versions I grew up with -- comforting, rich, and perfectly balanced. If you're craving real Hong Kong comfort food, this is it. Service is quick and friendly enough for a HK place. read more

Parking in ID can be difficult on the weekends, so try to come on weekdays if possible! Help out all the restaurants in this area! Quick service, free hot tea in plastic cups (a classic), and chili oil at the table. Ask for white pepper btw! Depending on your taste, I like adding white pepper to my fried rice, chow fun, and soup. Wonton soup: the wontons are huge and filled with pork and shrimp. The soup however was kind of sour? Not sure what they added in, but the flavor of the broth was not my favorite. There's so much good wonton soup in the area! I wish this broth was better and more savory. Beef chow fun: pretty tasty and the beef was pretty tender. There was no work hei, so didn't have that distinct flavor Half chicken bone in: this was surprisingly our favorite dish! Steamed chicken with a ginger oil. The ginger made this dish and the chicken was very tender. The chicken comes cold so eat it with some rice and it's the perfect combo read more

A nice little business that is selling Hong Kong cafe food in Chinatown, Seattle. Tried peanut butter toast and also ordered noodles with egg and shrimp and claypot rice. This place is like a fast casual spot and the food is super tasty. We had to wait a little bit but it was worth it. If you want something fast and delicious, this is a good spot to come to! The noodle with egg and shrimp was my favorite and was cooked so well! If you haven't ever had it give this a try next time! read more

--Location/Parking-- Located in the international district where parking can be a struggle to find, but there was a paid parking lot across the street. --Ambience-- Small New York style restaurant and tight space. I had very little room when I picked up my order, but I wished I dined in, but the clientele tells you that this was authentic Chinese food. --Service/Staff-- Typical Chinese restaurant service, which can be blunt and straight forward. You will definitely get quick service. Wait time can vary because of the large crowd. --Products/Service-- Home style family kitchen with authentic Chinese food that you can't go wrong with --Capacity-- Tight indoor space. --Overall-- Great spot for authetic Chinese food. Service and attitude may vary, but you will still get delicious food! read more

The food is amazing and very authentic. Service is very quick and efficient. We ordered a clay pot rice dish, which took a little longer which they communicated and they brought out all the food together The atmosphere was nice, close to other patrons and can hear the kitchen in the background. There were a lot of families there and I enjoyed it overall. read more

Authentic chinese food at a hole in the wall. The radish cakes are full of radish and not just starch fillers. Very good. We also ordered the spareribs black bean rice pot and the beef chow fun. Food was good but not great. The place was full on a Friday night. The server was nice but not chatty. This place has tvs in Chinese and is reminiscent of being in Hong Kong. Well done. read more

The clay pot rice, drinks, wet style eggy chowfun, and stir fried intestine with pork were all amazing. Just top notch textures, from crispy rice to the tender vegetables. The only thing I wouldn't recommend would be their Mala noodle soup which was incredible light and lacking in depth of flavor or spicy mala-tingle. Very forgettable compared to the flavor bombs of the other ordered dishes. Service was quick and the food gets serves piping hot, just the way we love it! Small space inside so not easy for large families/groups. read more

Seating was quick! Maybe not the cleanest but you get what you want and can go after! Mango sago pomelo - too frozen, not very flavorful, some sago is over boiled and so soggy while others seemed undercooked. Not good 0.5/5 Beef brisket noodle soup - not bad. Meat was soft but some pieces maybe too fatty, noodles like wonton noodles. 2.5/5 Pan fried radish cake with XO sauce - actually pretty good! Hot and goes well with chili oil on table 3/5 read more

I was able to try their beef fried rice and it was pretty good! Very flavorful and the pricing and portioning were good. I'd say there was a decent amount of meat too, but I'd definitely would've enjoyed more. The service was okay. Nothing extraordinary. The food didn't take long at all to make. The ambiance was okay too. I wished it was more organized, clean, and decorated. read more

In an unassuming quiet street of Chinatown is a hole in the wall restaurant with authentic Hong Kong flavors. My boyfriend was quite ecstatic that I found this place in Seattle! We got the hot yuan yang ($4.75), beef brisket noodle soup ($10.50), toast sandwich w/ peanut butter & condensed milk ($5.50), coconut milk sago soup ($5.45), salted pork & chinese sausage rice ($15). Everything was delicious! Authentic taste + friendly service. :) read more

Really delicious and authentic Hong Kong cuisine for a steal of a price. Place is decently sized but does get hot and stuffy during the summer weather! Service was super efficient and straightforward; they got us seated, took our order, and brought it out! My family loved this place, it was very fulfilling to eat here! The dishes were outstanding and flavorful, just what we needed after a long flight. We ordered pork belly, beef brisket curry, shrimp/pork wonton soup, and beef clay pot w tendons. I highly recommend everything except the wonton soup, it was tasty but the other dishes outshined and was worth ordering more! read more

It was a great experience! Quick and prompt service! We had hainanese chicken rice. It was very tasty and the side of broth that came with it was wonderful and very well season! Pork congee was great as well. Mango sago was flavorful but not a fan of the frozen sago. Overall we're glad that we decided to give it a try and will be back! read more

They open at 10 am on Sundays and we got there for a party of four around 11 am with a 15-20 min wait which wasn't bad since it is a small small place with maybe 9 tables? Service wasn't great very very unorganized, unprofessional and just bad communication between the staffs and customers. Best thing to do is ask them to repeat your orders back to you but they're in such rush that we couldn't even ask them to. In such hurry to rush off so god know where? There's 3-4 servers mind, there's only 9 small tables.... We got extra teas because they thought we didn't get it(made us pay for it) and got the wrong baked spaghetti..... even my mother who's 63 Asian lady said wow, what a bad experience and service we shouldn't tip that much. read more

Another day another great food experience at A+. Clay pot rice 10/10 and not super salty. Highly recommend 梅菜排骨飯 but I've tried a few and they are all good and consistent. Clay pot rice takes a while to make (~20mins) but it's worth the wait IMO. Their service is quick and everything else will come out pretty quickly. There's limited space inside which is part of the authentic HK experience if you think about it read more

Came in for dinner on a sunday and waited about 20 minutes. The menu is very extensive but they absolutely had everything we ordered, no problems there. Dishes: -Ice hong kong milk tea- legit. -cart noodles with satay broth, thin egg noodle, curry fish balls, handmade beef balls, and sliced lamb. Bold and satisfying. The beefballs were juicy and extra bouncy. - baked seafood over spaghetti. Baked just right in a creamy white sauce. None of the seafood was overcooked. Definitely tastes like home. Good amount of seafood -stirfry bokchoy with garlic- light end delicious - dessert: fish maw and gum karaya cooked in a light coconut milk. Unique dessert, lots of collagen. Comes as hot or cold. Overall: portions are huge. We saw someone in the next table order a stew with rice and there was a mountain of rice. It seems hungry college students frequent this place. Service was good- they speak english and mandarin but nonetheless the food was spot-on hong kong cuisine. They checked up on us a lot to make sure our water was filled,etc. The restaurant is a small place so seats we're too abundant. Definitely a grest hole-in-the-wall. read more

Food: 5/5 I got several dishes, most notably the beef chow fun, fish slice congee, and minced beef with egg stone pot rice. Everything was legit and satisfied that comfort food craving. You know this place is authentic when my grandma from Hong Kong says it's good. Everything was perfect, no notes. I came in with high expectations and it exceeded them. Service: 5/5 They were quick, efficient, and respectful. Great service all around and they spoke cantonese as well so my grandma felt right at home. Ambiance: 4.5/5 It's quite a small hole-in-the-wall spot, so space is limited and it was super busy in there. But to be honest that doesn't really take away from the ambiance, I felt very comfortable and liked how lively it felt in there. read more

I cannot believe I have not reviewed this spot yet! This has got to be my favorite Hong Kong style restaurant in all of Seattle and I stan their clay pot rice so much! I usually go to their sister location down the street but they were closed on Wednesday so I came here for an early dinner instead. I got the Chinese bacon and sausage stone pot rice as well as their rice rolls with house sauce. So good and comforting. While I usually go to their sister location because of the spacing I do like the vibes here being more old school. read more

This place is pretty authentic according to some friends from Hong Kong. The ambiance inside really felt like we were in Asia. Super quick and efficient service. We ordered: - French toast w peanut butter: a classic Hong Kong dish. This was good but I saw others ordering buns so maybe I would get that instead next time. - Rice rolls w pork: honestly a skip, the noodles don't absorb the flavor too well but it tastes pretty good when it's super hot. Not mind blowing but not bad. - Minced pork w pickled vegetables clay pot: will say the clay pots are a LOT of rice, so maybe order one to share. We preferred this over the second clay pot we ordered. If you leave the rice for a bit it crisps up really nice. Worth trying - Radish cake in XO sauce: THIS was the highlight of our meal. The XO sauce is made with a strong dried fish flavor so if you're into that I highly recommend. I'm still thinking about this dish as I write this review. read more

Would you believe me if I told you that I found this place by following where the crowd from the metro train walked to? This seems like a place that if you know, you know. Located in Chinatown, this unassuming small restaurant was packed and busy on a Friday night. There were two servers frantically running the front of house while a few more cooks in the back were grinding out dishes. Their menu is huge and likely will have something for everyone. We ordered the chow fun with beef topped with egg sauce and a Mala Tang with beef. The chow fun was flavored and seasoned well and the egg sauce, which I would describe like a thickened egg drop soup, was delicious. The Mala tang is a personal hot pot with spicy Sichuan broth. It was kind of bland aside from the spiciness, but it loaded up with crystal noodles, cabbage, tofu, woodear mushroom, and beef. It was perfect for a cold day. The servers ensured we got hot tea and our orders placed, but since they were so busy, you will need to flag them down if you need anything else. read more

This is my favorite ID restaurant. The staff are friendly (rare!) and the food is top notch. recently had brisket rice rolls, baked spaghetti with pork chop and some various other things. The spaghetti was standout the sauce was amazing! Inside, there isn't much to say about the dining room - it's no frills and a well worn but the food is so outstanding I would recommend you come here to try. TIP: there's two "A+ Hong Kong" restaurants, this one is the better one and it is located next to Fuji bakery and opposite the park. read more

After an amazing experience at the Titanic exhibit and to celebrate my good friend's early birthday, we decided to try A+ Kitchen in Seattle! She was craving Chinese food, so it was the perfect opportunity to sample some delicious dishes. We ordered century egg & pork congee for $9.95, Chinese donuts for $4.95, curry beef brisket in a stone bowl for $18.50, pork hock with bean sauce in a stone pot for $16.95, Szechuan beef lo mein for $12.95, beef brisket noodle soup for $11.95, hot milk tea for $4.45, salted lemon with 7up for $4.45, and hot salted lemon with honey for $4.45. This restaurant is definitely worth trying! The food was delicious, the portions were generous, perfect for sharing--and the prices were affordable. It's a great spot whether you're dining with friends, family, or even on your own. The service was good too; even though they forgot to bring my friend's rice, they apologized right away. The place is always packed, but we had a fantastic dinner and created some memorable moments together. read more

Visited A+ Kitchen on July 4th holiday, very appreciative that they were open. This is hands down my favorite place for Cantonese/ Hong Kong style food. Service: We got seated very quickly during dinner time. Teas were served instantly once we sat down. Food: Ordered baked seafood over rice and baked pork chop over rice. Both were served in generous portions and came out hot. They are a MUST-ORDER item! As I grew up in HK, this is the closest to what I used to have. I tried their mango sago in the past and the sweetness is on point (not too sweet) filled with mango flavors. Ambiance: Clean and simple restaurant. Will definitely return again! :) read more

Was craving vegetables so found this Hong Kong spot to try! We ordered rice rolls and a plate of vegetables to share and then we each got our own claypot rice. The rice rolls was made with soy sauce and a peanut sauce and it was actually so good. I'm usually not a big fan of rice rolls, but the savory and sweet flavor was amazing. The vegetables were just what I needed, and I love the variety of vegetables provided. I got the pork belly and preserved vegetable claypot rice which was but by the time it had arrived, I was already quite full from the rice rolls and vegetables so I was able to take almost 75% of it to go which made a lovely lunch for the next day Service was very fast as well. Highly recommend! read more

A+ Hong Kong Kitchen delivers a satisfying dining experience with a variety of flavorful dishes. The Stir Fried Rice Roll With XO Sauce stood out with its great savory taste from the XO sauce, perfectly cooked exterior with a slight crust, and a soft inside--definitely a dish worth repeating. The Baked Portuguese Chicken Rice featured a nice cheesy crust on top, tasting like Thai curry with some vegetables mixed in. The Salted Pork & Chinese Sausage Rice Stone Pot, complemented by a side of Chinese greens, was a solid choice. Pro-tip: let the rice sit for a bit to get a nice crust on the bottom. The pork was tender and flavorful, while the sausage was standard but paired well with the crispy rice. The side of greens was good, nothing special. For dessert, the Mango Sago Pomelo with Purple Rice was tasty but I wish it had more purple rice and sago, though the mango sago itself was nice. The Grass Jelly with Mango was good despite the mango not being fully ripe and the grass jelly coming from a can; the condensed milk paired nicely with the ingredients, though more of it would have been better. The Mango Smoothie with Coconut Milk and Sago was sweet and tasty, with a strong mango flavor that paired well with the coconut milk and sago. I would come back just for this drink. Service was quick and attentive, with hot tea served at no charge and water available upon request. It's small inside and there's not a lot of seating but it's cozy that way. Overall, A+ Hong Kong Kitchen offers a delightful array of dishes that make it worth a visit. read more

Ate here tonight with hair in my stone pot after being little more than half way done. (My son sharing with me) next bite, I pick it up and there's hair in my food! It wasn't my hair cause I have long black hair and the hair I found was short and slightly colored a yellow hint. I take it out and tell the waiter. He nonchalantly brushes me off and tells me that he will "go look" after waiting over 5 minutes he said the manager will come to my table to talk to me. My family and I still waiting for another 8+ minutes with no one coming to my table. We then just ask for a check. The waiter then brings a mango puddling to the table and said that's for the hair in your food. No apologies from anyone who works there. I get home to open the puddling and things just keeps getting worst. The quart is broken from the bottom like someone dropped it and it wasn't me. read more
