We were told ownership has changed again. We ate here a few times over the last several months getting our usuals (which was great for the last several years) but sadly the food quality has changed for the worse!! :(

Server was great / very prompt. I ordered dim sum and a lunch special and it was delicious. The shui mai and har gow was very generous in size, and pricing seemed fair, since it hard to find good dim sum in Seattle. Congee was good, needed more duck eggs.

Went here with a few coworkers after a morning playing tennis as it was walking distance from the upper woodland courts. We came in on a saturday at 1130 am and seated ourselves and it was not super busy. There was booths along the side and circle tables in the middle of the restaurant. We decided to go dimsum style with around 6 dimsum platters and salt and pepper wings. The highlights were the siu mai and the har gow where the portions were really big and were flavorful. The less known dishes, vegetable spring rolls (super oily) and the lava buns (lukewarm) were not as great, but the classic dim sum dishes are super good.

Craving dim sum so stopped at Bamboo Village today for lunch. Server was very nice and attentive and food was all excellent. Everything was hot and fresh tasting delicious as ever. Not real busy so it was quick.

Met a former co-worker here for dim sum. We got the usual items including siu mai, har gow, sticky rice and pork spring rolls. Pan fried chive dumplings and pork egg rolls were standouts for me. Not pictured are the soy sauce noodles, which came out a little oily for my taste. The curry chicken and BBQ pork pastries are reserved for weekend only. This is the type of place you order with the server and there are pictured menus. They do not have push carts. They also have a dedicated parking lot. Overall, good dim sum experience in the north end.

Lunch special, Prawns and vegetables, egg roll and soup!

Every once in a while, you find one of these hidden gems. I just happened to be working across the street and I had to take a break and just so happen to try this place and what a wonderful find!! The restaurant was super clean! It's spacious and the service was great! and the food was just as I had hoped it would be by that I mean delicious and vegetables were very fresh! The price was reasonable, so I took some takeout with me home after sitting down and enjoying my lunch!

Porridge (already dished out to bowls), 73. Dry Beef Chow Fun, assorted veggies, 1. Ha Gow (Shrimp Dumpling)

It's perfect for locals and families who enjoy Cantonese style food. My kids love Bamboo Village's porridge and all-the-time dim sum. It's one of the few places I can get them to eat their vegetables. It's not like places that specialized in spicy Szechuan food but for Chinese American style food, this place is good, fast and lots of seating for families and groups.

63. Broccoli with Garlic 33. Sesame Chicken 79. Fried Rice

Food is very good and has tons of options. We love the fried rice and the sesame chicken. Can't go wrong with the veggie options as well. Great location and staff is nice.

Pebble

This was good food. Up until I cracked a tooth on a pebble.... Yes it's a damn pebble in my food. Never wrote a yelp review until now but this was quite an unwelcome surprise

21. Mongolian Beef

The food is decent for the price. I came around lunchtime and got one of their specials. Service was excellent. Restaurant was clean. Definitely would come again if I'm in the mood for Chinese food.

I ordered the sesame chicken for delivery and it came fast, hot, and crispy. I just wish it had come with rice.... Was just a huge box of chicken!

You can tell this restaurant is family owned and run. The dim sum is pretty good for the neighborhood. The service was a little slow, but we got everything we needed. There were some hits and misses for the dim sum, and they didn't have everything you'll traditionally see on dim sum menus. I would come to this place if you're not looking to drive into CID.

Excuse the blurry photo of our meal - 7. Wonton Soup, 33. General Tso's Chicken, and 80. Singapore Style Vermicelli

Dropped by since my husband loves Singapore noodles and they had it on their menu. Restaurant was fairly empty when we went at 6:30pm on a summer Sunday. Seemed clean Servers reminded me of my Chinese aunt and grandma; you can tell this is a family joint. They commented on what was good and knew the regular who came to pick up her take out by name. Joked when packing up our leftovers that of course no food could be wasted :) Service and food delivery was fast and portions were pretty large for the price; we could have fed 4 people for $60. Wonton soup -- enough for a family of four to each have a small bowl and then some, tasty broth with plenty of wontons and a decent selection of veg (snow peas, water chestnut, carrot, and bok choy). Singapore noodles -- husband asked for extra spicy which they delivered on (and he does not recommend haha). He said it was delicious. Included a decent amount of shrimp, pork, chicken, bean sprouts, etc. General Tso's chicken: chunks of white chicken in a tasty sweet sauce that wasn't very spicy, and quite a thick and crispy coating which amazingly stayed crispy for absolutely forever. Even my last bite 20 minutes after it was delivered was still nice and crunchy! Also came with broccoli that was a nice counterpoint and stayed crunchy and green. Will have to come back to try their dim sum!

A tiny place with big portion and authentic food…read more We came here on a Sunday afternoon, the restaurant was almost fully packed. I had my all time favorite dish at a Hong Kong café cuisine, gon caau ngau ho (乾炒牛河), aka beef chow fun, along with a childhood favorite drink, iced Horlicks. I liked how everything moved at a quick pace here and yet the staff were still friendly. The best part was that no one stopped by to ask how the food was while your mouth was full, because they already knew the food was good. The beef chow fun was just as good as the ones back home. It was savory and full of wok hei (iykyk). The bean sprouts were added at just the right time, so they were still a slightly crunchy. The sliced beef was tender too. If you like adding extra spice, be sure to try the crunchy chili sauce on the table. It was awesome, fragrant, spicy, and full of flavor. Just be careful not to choke on it, I did, and it wasn't fun. I hadn't had Horlicks in twenty years, and the first sip brought back so many memories. Be sure to stir it well and maybe wait until the ice melts a little, otherwise it may be slightly too sweet. My partner is a vegetarian. He looked through the entire menu and said there weren't many things he could order (listen, people, choose your future SO accordingly if you like sharing big meat dishes). He ended up ordering the curry vegetable rice and added a fried egg. He said the curry was delicious. I tried a bite of it and agreed. I think there may have some coconut milk in it because it was rich and creamy. The rice was a little too dry to my liking. Sitting there and listening to the background music from the Hong Kong TV news, I felt like a kid again.

Parking in ID can be difficult on the weekends, so try to come on weekdays if possible! Help out…read moreall 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

For most people, I feel that we find a Chinese restaurant and if we like it, we commit forever. I haven't had Fortune Garden and felt adventurous, was not disappointed in taste though I'd be interested in comparing value across the shops in Chinatown. They have some nice lunch combos, but sucks that they don't provide soup for takeout. Could substitute with a rice or something! Honey Walnuts Prawns - honey walnut shrimp is such a classic, easily one of my favorites from childhood and still near the top of my list. I don't know if it's the takeout container, but the quantity with respect the box was disappointing. Felt like there was less shrimp and walnuts compared to what I'm used to, but I think I also pay closer to $22-25 for the dish (the one here was $20). Minced Pork with Green Bean - now this was a hefty box, lots of green beans tossed with the classic XO sauce and a solid amount of pork. Honestly not much to comment on, this was a hearty dish and very comforting. Would recommend for green bean or string bean lovers.

This place is a true gem, serving satisfying, delicious food in a relaxed atmosphere at an affordable price. The restaurant looks small from the front, but space is used efficiently and they manage to fit quite a bit of seating into not that large of a dining room. Tables are mostly four tops, quite spacious at that, and surrounded by sturdy wooden chairs. I came for dinner on a Friday evening and there were a few other tables at any given time. Service was quick and our water never ran empty. We had the wontons in hot oil, topped with peanuts, I had the beef chow fun, and my dinner buddy had the pork with hot sauce noodles. The wontons are very very good, stuffed with flavorful pork and swimming in a sauce that sits in that perfect spot at the intersection of hot and sour. The peanuts and scallions add a delightful crunch. Their beef chow fun satisfies every bit of childhood nostalgia I have for this dish, with lots of wok hei, bouncy noodles, and the most tender of beef. I think my favorite beef chow fun in the city still lives at A+ Hong Kong Kitchen, but this is a close second. The portion here is also huge. I am a human vacuum and I actually brought leftovers home, which is rare for me. The pork with hot sauce noodles is seemingly a fusion of zha jiang mian and dan dan noodles. My friend really enjoyed it and actually finished the whole thing, which is saying something given that she doesn't usually eat that much. There are so many other items on the menu that I'm eager to try, so I will definitely be back.

The start of the journey began with the requisite parking fiasco and issues that are perpetual in the Seattle ID...but that should never, and I mean never, stop an important mission like finding a truly delicious noodle restaurant. When we went in, it was pretty empty. We were immediately sat, and ordered. The hot jasmine tea quickly followed. Our Calamari came out quick and was delicious to the point I nearly had to fight my son for the last piece. I quickly surrendered as he does stab people...see above...he parried my fork and stabbed the last piece before quickly finishing the move. Our mains came out shortly after we finished the calamari. The 14yo ordered beef brisket noodle soup. He said it was delicious, but too spicy after he added too much chili oil. The wife scoffed at the idea that there's such a thing as too much chili oil and ate some of his soup. This was after she dug into her hot pot. I did get a chance to sample the delicate pork pieces and the flavorful rice. The slightly crispy rice at the bottom of the pot were so delicious. I had the Singapore style fried noodles. Really tasty. The noodles had so many flavors from the vegetables to the meats (shrimp, chicken meat & egg, and pork) and the sauce. I enjoyed the meal, and look forward to discovering more dishes to try on our adventures trying to find parking. JuFeng, thank you for the delicious meal!

Also, when did we start calling it, "The International District". If we had Mexican, Italian and other ethnic restaurants in the neighborhood, I'd get on board, but not only do San Francisco, New York and L. A. have the biggest Chinatowns, cities also have Barrio's and Little Italy's, so clearly cultures are ok with us specifying. A friend brought up Scallion Beef, so I did a search, Scallion Beef is sometimes called Ginger Beef, so H Bistro came up in my results. Initially, I wondered if H Bistro was Hong Kong Bistro and they rebranded, but HKB is still in business and around the corner and not very good mind you. Reviews for H Bistro are strong and the photo's convinced me that this should be a better than average meal. People talked about the lunch special and since I had a meeting downtown in the afternoon, I thought I could pop in here before my meeting. Once there I was sat. I didn't see lunch on the menu, so I asked and was told, lunch was no longer offered. Again, with no website, I had to rely on Yelp so despite reviews from 2024 talking about lunch, it's not longer offered. I got the Ginger Beef and asked if they did soup by the cup and was also told no. That is why Chinese Lunch is so popular, you typically get soup, rice, entrée and even an appetizer. That is a full meal. I just had my entrée and rice. I asked for chili oil and was brought a very small portion, It had good flavor, but no heat. The entree was good, but without soup and appetizer it just wasn't well rounded. Also, the food would have benefited from being served on a hot iron plate. Not only does it add sear, but it keeps the dish hot. Post meal, I had hoped for a cookie and despite being a block from the fortune cookie factory, no cookie was served. Would I return, sure, with a large group, that would be the only way to truly experience the menu. With 2 people I could have added soup and appetizer as the entrée is also large enough for 2. That said, this was one the cleaner places in Chinatown. That is not to say Chinatown is dirty, but many restaurants need paint, have old furniture or have water stains. This place was fairly nice inside and could be classy with a few more bucks invested. This place really shot itself in the foot by discontinuing lunch, despite being decent, there was just too much disappointment today.

My favorite tea to wash this all down is Buddha tea. I like the buddha tea because it's less bitter than others and has a golden taste to it. Honestly with the exception of the spare ribs, everything on the dim sum menu is pretty good, I just need to bring a bigger group of people so we can just try everything on the menu!
