    $35 Honey Walnut Prawn 核桃蝦
    Gareth P.

    Walnut Shrimp - Tub half full, with half an inch of lettuce at the bottom. Shrimp chewy / overcooked. $35! Sesame Beef - Tub half full, quite tasty though to be fair. Sesame Chicken - Dry chicken, mostly full. Definitely not the best. For the price, quite outrageous. There is much better out there for the same price. Or to be brutally honest, nicer Walnut Shrimp at Panda Express for less money. Yes, Panda Express...this is not good.

    So good, will come back again! The customer service is superb. The Chinese donut is fluffy and crunchy.

    Orange Chef Special Dinner for 2
    Jojo L.

    Since I was craving rice, my friend brought me to a Chinese restaraunt called @best_wok , and the food was authentic and comforting! We got the Chef Special Dinner for Two, which consisted of egg flower and won ton soup, barbecue pork, orange chicken, kung pao beef and fried rice all for $60! The staff were incredibly friendly and sweet as we talked story and exchanged laughters talking about the Zero purse I was wearing and how our servers daughter loved The Nightmare Before Christmas Disney movie, too! They were especially appreciative of us trying to speak to them in their dialect (Mandarin). The interior of the restaraunt felt very homey, and they also had a cute fish tank display where we ate at! The only thing I could note was that I wish the soup portions were a bit larger.

    Chicken with Cashew Nuts

    This is still good. But not as good as before. The taste has declined. In the cashew chicken, the chicken was lower in the proportion compared to the rice. The staff is still nice and so is the inter.

    Hunan Chicken lunch special

    Very well made! Standard Chinese food fare and everything I've had was cooked and seasoned well. Fresh and hot. Get your favorite go-to items or try something new, it'll all be well-made! Try shrimp toast if you've never had it.

    Large menu with American-Chinese classics, executed well, but having inconsistent portion sizes with high prices. There are A LOT of authentic Chinese restaurants in Bel-Red for the large Asian population that lives in the area. Sometimes, you just want to eat comfort food, Americanized Chinese food that you can find all across the country and chains like Panda Express have made standards. My wife really wanted a good egg drop soup on this cold Seattle day, so my daughter suggested Best Wok as a good choice, ordering carry-out for the four of us. The two locals amongst us had eaten before (both dine-in and carry-out), and were really happy with the dine-in experience (good service, large portions, great taste). There is a slight discount for cash, and the order was ready within 10 minutes of placing our order; it was still hot by the time we got back to the apartment. White rice was separate, so she skipped that since she had rice back at home. Everything tasted good. The large egg flower soup ($12 was excellent, it looked like it would be too gelatinous, but it wasn't...and the sweet corn was a great add. The Dragon and Phoenix ($30) was OK, consisting of a half portion of sauteed seafood (in white sauce) and a half portion of General Tao Chicken. For the price, it was disappointing: small amount of medium size shrimp, not much scallops. The General Tao chicken used freshly breaded white chicken and the sauce was good. The Pan Fried Noodles ($20) was a good size, with a large quantity of chow mein given (this is what actually gave our entire meal heft and allowed us not to be hungry after finishing everything). Zucchini was very prevalent in the dishes, being used as the filler vegetable. Would strongly recommend eating in, if possible, since it sounds like they do a better job of matching the portions and sizes with the pricing.

    We were told this restaurant has really good food. Let me tell you this place didn't disappoint AT ALL! The service was excellent & the food omg it was delicious! We have another good restaurant in our rotation.

    Sweet & Sweet And Sour Pork lunch special. Soup, entree, spring roll, rice for $18.
    Sara M.

    Met a friend here while in town for a visit and realized I had eaten here decades ago! Impressed it was still around and doing great business. I chose the sweet & sour lunch special which includes entree, soup, choice of rice and spring roll for $18. I wanted wonton soup which was a $1.50 upgrade and it came with two wontons and very good. Our meals came out quick, hot & delicious but service for drink refills was slow. Plenty of parking, friendly staff, easy location and clean bathrooms.

    Kung Pao Chicken and Fried Rice with Beef so delicious
    Kim C.

    This is what I've been looking for!!! I am so picky about my Chinese food. My favorite place as a kid in Las Vegas closed many years ago and I have never found anywhere that tastes the same anywhere I've lived. I love my kung pao chicken with no veggies just peanuts and chicken. Best Wok delivered the nostalgia of good homemade Chinese food I have been missing for many years. The restaurant even gave me that same feeling before I got my food. I drove past here a few times when I take a back way home from work in Kirkland and I'm so glad I finally ordered. The man working was so friendly and thorough and these portions are huge. I ordered via Yelp for pick up. I am now the biggest Best Wok fan and I can't wait to come back and bring friends and family. I would like to try their sweet and sour chicken next, please try them out and support small business.

    Xi'an Noodles seemed like a promising place for biang biang noodles in Bellevue. We went in for a…read moreweekend lunch, only to be terribly disappointed. This restaurant is mostly self service; there are two kiosks right in front for ordering and a table full of prefilled drink cups. I think the only upside to this restaurant is the free cups of mango tea, which are slightly sweetened and fruity. I wouldn't say they are very mango forward though. Hot Oil Biang Noodles ($13.99) - The biang biang noodles here aren't very good. They seem to be stretched somewhat, but then I feel like they take shortcuts. Instead of being almost completely stretched via bouncing the noodles on the table, they only stretch it probably half as much as normal, then they cut the dough lengthwise several times - this is why I can see multiple clear corner pieces in the noodle instead of it being relatively straight. They also don't care to make it consistent in thickness. This causes major issues because the thinner parts are soft and mushy while the thicker corners are doughy and slightly undercooked. I don't know how, but the noodles also clump together, so in some bites, I'm eating three strands of mushy noodles right on top of each other. The sauce here isn't much better. It's supposed to be aromatic, blistering hot oil mixed with chili/vinegar and aromatics poured directly on the noodles. The problems here are multifold. Firstly, they don't drain the noodles properly, resulting in an excessive amount of water diluting the sauce. Secondly, they use far too much vinegar, making the sauce overly acidic. The vinegar is by far the dominant flavor in the dish. While the dish seems like it will be spicy due to the red color oil, it's almost completely diluted out by the vinegar and noodle cooking water. The dish is basically not spicy at all due to these factors. (2/5) Spicy Cumin Lamb Biang Noodle Soup ($14.99) - This dish suffers from the same noodle issues as above, but the soup format improves some aspects slightly, but worsens other aspects. Since the soup is hot and the noodles are soaked in the broth, they soften more readily, so the soft portions are even more mushy than the "dry" noodle. The thicker portions are nice and bouncy though. The soup itself is relatively flavorful, slightly gamey, and tastes like it actually is a lamb bone broth, but it doesn't really have depth of flavor. Again, it's not really spicy at all. The lamb on top seems like thinly sliced hot pot lamb, pan fried until very dry. If not for the fact that the lamb is sliced thin, it would be extremely tough. It does have a nice fragrant cumin flavor though. (2/5) Those were the two worst bowls of noodles I've had in a long time. I wasn't particularly impressed with the noodles at the U District location of Xi'an Noodles either, but they were far better than these two steaming piles of excrement. Bathrooms - Two unisex room shared with Snowy Village. One was locked though

It was a little busy so it took about 20 minutes before we were seated and my boyfriend's bowl came out. I noticed that my number was called but when we went up my bowl was not there. We asked the guy in the window if it was there or just a mistake and he said he had put it out and asked to see our receipt with the bowl number. He looked at our receipt and then went around the entire restaurant and found my bowl and the person who took it! (It was an accident, still frustrating). He told us that I could remake my bowl at no extra cost, but by that point we didn't have enough time to wait for it to cook and eat. They refunded us and brought over an extra side of oranges and gave us three drinks for free, which is extremely generous considering it was not their fault at all. I was bummed by not getting my meal but very grateful that they cared enough about my experience that they wanted to make up for a mistake that they didn't make. Now I'll have to come back again to get my bowl! TLDR: my bowl was taken by another costumer but I didn't have time for it to be remade so they gave me extra sides and free drinks **please don't take advantage of them, they WILL check your receipt and find your bowl

    Amazingly fresh Korean food. I would 100% go back again…read more I got the vegan kimbap which had a great proportion of vegetables to rice (more veggies, just the bottom of the bowl with white rice). My spouse got the poke bowl which had fresh salmon and all the usual fixings you'd have with poke. In the middle of eating, the server brought us a free salmon kimbap he wanted us to try. He said the salmon was fresh and from Canada. Very generous place, easy parking outside, and the mall is fun to walk around in after you eat. Some people in the reviews mentioned that the food is overpriced but it has pretty normal prices for the area. Everything is more expensive than it used to be nowadays. I didn't feel cheated by this restaurant.

    Ok so here are my thoughts…read more Taste/Presentation of the dishes - 3.5 to 4 stars. My daughter and I ordered Rosé Teokbokki and Signature Kimbap. Both dishes were quite tasty and the presentation was excellent but Kimbap was cold (I guess that is okay but it should really be served just slightly colder than room temp) and the sides that came with Rosé Teokbokki were premade stuff from Young Ocean or another vendor, not housemade. Also the sauce for Rosé had "Korean Corn Soup" in it. I love the Korean Corn Soup but it's a cheap instant stuff you can buy at any Korean Grocery. Service/Venue/Ambiance - 3 stars. Simply put - not memorable but not bad either. Place was clean but very blank. It definitely does not feel like a place that should charge the price they do (more to come on this later). Food came out pretty fast and the server was okay. The space was pretty big and we didn't have to wait to be seated (Sunday 11:30am). Price/Value - Negative 5 stars. 20 dollars for what we got is quite ridiculous. Terrible value! Half the food we ate wasn't even made in house. On top of all this, they charged 80 cents more than the listed prices on the menu!! Wow and why? They ask for tip too. There is nowhere on the menu that says they charge 4% service fees. This is such a scam imo. Restaurants that charge service fees! Please stop. Unless the fees go to pay the wages of the employees, it should be illegal for businesses to do this. Overall, you can definitely live without this place. Food is pretty good but you really deserve better than feeling you got ripped off plus the extra 4% when paying the bill.
