Amazing! had the string bean chicken with garlic sauce and let me just say the food speaks for itself.

First off I walked in and had to ask what they serve. Couldn't tell if it was Boba , some different Japanese dessert or food, Place is rather childish in nature, crude pictured and decorated like 1st grade classroom. But hey , give it a shot right? Basic chicken and vegetable dish was MSG gravy on rice. not good read more

I had a real craving for Chinese food today, I'm really glad I didn't go the generic Panda Express route! I was pleasantly surprised by the service and attentiveness of their host. I ordered the the egg drop soup for my appetizer and the chef's special egg fu yong for my entree with a to-go order for beef n broccoli. I'm pleased with the egg drop soup because it came hot and fairly bland so I could add salt to my satisfaction. The egg foo yong...next time I'll pick a protein instead of all three (beef, chicken, pork.) The texture was great, it was hot and definitely presentable. I just couldn't nail down a specific palette that it hit...even with salt it wasn't enough to capture an exact flavor, it was ok, like I said, next time I'll pick a protein, lol! Beef n broccoli was, hands down the best dish!! No disappointment, no off taste, no need for salt at all!! I'll must definitely be back!! read more

Really wanted some quick Chinese food for lunch and my usual spots are 20-30 min away. I found this place on DoorDash and was shocked at how decently priced their lunch specials are. I ordered 2, the bbq pork fried rice and sweet and sour chicken, since I couldn't decide and with tax both were under $25. The portions are large and come with a soup or soda to go. My food was hot and fresh and was ready immediately once I arrived. Lunch special pricing is M-F until 3 pm I believe. I will definitely be back! I appreciate this small business and the friendliness of the man working. I will be recommending to my friends who live closer to Burien too! read more

Really cute Asian cafe with decor and good food! We had the fried tofu and a couple different congees in a cold night and it was satisfying! The tofu crispiness was good. Service was good, we got an hour before closing and the lady was still really polite about giving us to-go boxes. read more

Eat Time - Salted Pepper Crispy Soft Tofu - Cantonese Near Me - Burien, Washington

Definitely on the greasier side but since it's close to the airport, it's a nice detour to pickup some takeaway after a trip without much Asian food! Located in a strip mall, it's probably not a place I'd eat in but takeout is fine. Extensive menu options with pretty reasonable pricing and portions. read more

We are regulars at Eat time, both via Door Dash and eat in. What's earned our repeat visits: Our favorites: - Delicious fried tofu and veggie dishes - stone pot fish/eggplant and tofu dishes are all excellent!! - out of this world flavor on the special fried rice - dishes with veggies are bringing great texture, veggies are perfectly cooked and nice big pieces - really generous portions...and the leftovers reheat well and we're excited to eat for lunch the next day rather than abandon in the fridge The restaurant is usually pretty quiet with most choosing to takeout, but the times we come in person it's actually very relaxing to sit and eat there, eg no strangers yelling about their work drama at your elbow, lol read more

A few months ago, I wrote a raving review about this restaurant when I rediscovered it having a new chef who did a splendid job preparing a few dishes that we favor. Since then we have been going back fairly regularly. However, 2 days ago I went to pick up a few dishes to take home, i,e. General Zhao's chicken, garlic egg plants and Singapore noodle that we order fairly regularly. To our honor, other than the noodle dish, the other 2 items were major disasters! We all know what General Zhao chicken and garlic egg plants taste like, but these came out totally sweet & sour and nothing else. I called the restaurant to complain about them. Instead of making them right, I was told they have a new chef now and that's the way they cook these dishes now, sweet & sour. Take it or leave it, I was told. No apology, no nothing. I rarely write bad reviews, but I think this is terrible attitude from a small local business. We will never go back again, and would not recommend any of our friends to go. Yes, I was from Hong Kong and I do know what basic Chinese foods like these ought to taste like! I hereby withdraw the good review I previously wrote about this place. read more

Looks small from the outside but actually has a good amount of seating, also thought the decor was nice & bright. We ordered our food and was pleasantly surprised by how fast we got our food & how good it all was. Would definitely recommend & come back again. read more

I really wanted to like this - knowing, of course, that this would probably be fairly typical American-style Chinese food. Unfortunately, Eat Time fell short of that rather modest expectatiuon. First off, everything was too salty. The Dai Pai Dong Seafood Fried Rice, rather than having that smoky flavor from the wok that we crave in fried rice, was darkly-colored, over-seasoned rice with overcooked, mushy seafood. No thank you. The moo shu pork came with four wrappers, one of which had black spots which I'm pretty sure were mold. The best dish of the three I ordered was the ginger and onion beef - the beef was tender and the flavor was good, with plenty of fresh ginger. read more

I have tried this place several times and it is disappointing every single time. The flavors are totally off. My family of 5 loves Chinese food and none of us like this food. We want to like it and keep trying, but this was the last. read more

Came here for dinner on a weekday night and we were the only ones in the restaurant. There is a decent amount of space but it didn't give off the most sanitary vibe as the sauce bottles and other stuff on our table was a little sticky. The food was relatively reasonably priced for the portion size, but honestly the quality was pretty mediocre. The beef chow fun was extremely oily and the curry beef just tasted ok. read more

I took my daughter and brother here today for the first time. I saw that they had duck tongue so I wanted to try. I got duck tongue and salted pepper deep fried soft egg tofu for munching. It's an entree size. I got my bro and daughter beef brisket noodle soup and I had seafood noodle soup. The soup is plain no flavor but we finished our noodle. However, the portion of duck tongue and deep fried soft tofu is more than enough for 3 of us. Or maybe each of us also had a bowl of noodle soup. I just like trying out some dishes when I go to a new place. We were munching on the tofu and duck tongue while waiting for our noodle soup. I was beyond stuffed. We had one piece of tofu and a few duck tongue pieces left. I packed left to go. The ambience is ok for a casual. It's just an ordinary and small place in a complex very near Burien downtown. read more

This review is solely based off my first and only time at this restaurant and ordering the Baked Chicken & Cream Sauce over Spaghetti. My favorite and go-to Hong Kong style food restaurants in Seattle are located in the Chinatown-International District (C-ID): A+ Hong Kong Kitchen and Hong Kong Bistro. I've had the baked dishes at both restaurants and was excited to try it at Eat Time. Unfortunately, I was very disappointed. It was gross and sadly, I only had a few bites and didn't finish it. I see the many glowing reviews on this place and believe that other dishes may potentially be better, so I'm willing to come back and try other them. But I would not order any of the baked dishes ever again. P.S. The Hong Kong Style Milk Tea wasn't bad and came in a bucket of ice, which was interesting. read more

Tried ordering takeout and they only delivered 1 of the items I ordered out of 3. If the majority of the order is unavilable, you'd think they would call to ask if you want to swap. That didnt happen. The fried rice (the only item that was delivered) was completely bland. Don't bother. read more

The food was delicious, with very nice sized portions, the service was quick and the people were very friendly and helpful!

Love this restaurant! I go here with my boyfriend whenever we're craving authentic Chinese food. It's a quiet little spot that mainly does takeout orders so I've never had trouble getting a table or waiting for food. It's more Taiwanese style but they have lots of options and it's always good. It's family style eating so the portions are large and meant to share. My favorite is the brisket noodle clay pot. But the garlic green beans are very good too! Service is always speedy and friendly! read more

We love Eat Time. They are our go-to for Hong Kong-style Chinese food, which is generally our preference. The tofu is a bit dry - and for instance, we wish the General Tao's tofu was done with silken tofu (which maybe would have to make that a totally differently named recipe but that would be great, too!) - the sweet sauce for this dish is amazing, I eat it just with rice, but the tofu that comes with (if you get the tofu) is too dry and with hard edges. Nevertheless, we order here as often as we can and also enjoy visiting in person - their décor on site is quirky and fun and also shows a lot of determined effort to create a unique space for guests. Always good service. read more

We usually only get takeout, for our own reasons, so can't comment on the ambiance, though it seems very pleasant. But their service is quick & efficient, they have an extensive menu with "something for everyone", & they have been very flexible with substitutes and special requests. Lots of nice fresh vegetables & decent portion sizes. The basic Cantonese restaurant staples we remember are all represented, along with more interesting dishes. read more

This was my second time here and it did not disappoint. Came here for lunch this time to try some Chinese comfort foods on a rainy Saturday. We were kindly greeted by our server and were escorted to a table. We ordered the beef chow fun, stir fried xo noodles and clay pot beef brisket with radish. I thought the stir fried xo noodles was just okay. It didn't have the wow factor. The clay pot was bubbling hot when it hit to our table. It tasted pretty good but I wished it came with rice. The best I had was the chow fun which is always delicious when they make it right. It has plenty of "wok hei" flavor, which made it taste so good. Highly recommend ordering again! read more

Food is east coast Chinese! Better than average for flavor, size, and cost. Super prompt service. Clean on the inside and full of plushies on the wall. I have yet to have a bad meal from eat time. The only thing I could say that could be take negative is add more garlic in certain dishes!! It's a hole in the wall in Burien, given the choices, go here! read more

Great food. Big portions. Need to remember that rice is extra. Always a good meal. If you like " East Coast" chinese then this is the place. Only downside is they dont have ribs like I'm used to, but no biggy. read more

*Open for dine-in and takeout July 2021* Friday at lunch time is completely empty. This place offers lunch special Monday through friday, if you are looking for a good deal (generic stir-fry with rice, soup and drink for $10.99 or $11.99). We tried the following dishes: *Stir-fry rice roll with XO sauce (4.5 stars, $11.99) - great wok flavor! *Peanut butter toast (4 stars) - Crispy toast with a thick layer of peanut butter and a little butter topped on top. Best eaten when it's HOT. If possible, ask the waiter to bring it last. Or order it at the end of your meal. I enjoyed it a lot, but my friend said it left a weird dry feeling in her mouth, which I thought was just too much peanut butter. *Roast duck (3.5 stars) - kind of bland and not very tender. *Salt and pepper fried tofu (3.5 stars) - It's the Chinese kind that the tofu is fried a lot, so it's crispy, but hard. Nothing too special. Inside is spacious and clean, with cute HK cafe style decor (pictures of food, wall art). Service is good. I may come back to try late night snack or dessert. read more

If you're looking for solid Chinese food in Burien, check out Eat Time. They have a huge menu if you are seriously craving Chinese food. Here are my thoughts on what we ordered: Salt and pepper chicken: This was my favorite dish out of everything we ordered. The chicken was perfectly crispy, seasoned well, and not oily. I came here with 3 other people, and this was the only dish where the portion was too small to be shared family style amongst the 4 of us. Mandarin style green beans: Solid dish. I thought the green beans could have been crispier. Not the best, but not the worst I've had, either. Honey walnut prawns: Their prawns were huge and the flavor met my expectations, but they forgot the walnuts in this dish. Duck tongue: I've never had duck tongue before, but I decided to try it along with all of my friends based on all of the raving reviews that mentioned duck tongue. I would describe the concept as eating chicken feet, where you nibble around the bones and spit out the bones. Another way to describe it: a very small chicken wing with no meat and a tiny bone in the center. I thought the flavor was fine, but it's not something I would get again after trying it once. Other random things to note: Rice is extra and charged per person. The decor was very cute. Parking is easy because it's located in a large parking lot. Overall, if I'm in the area and craving Chinese food, I would revisit Eat Time. read more

Eat Time - Hot and Sour Soup (Large) - Cantonese Near Me - Burien, Washington

I was really craving Hong Kong style café food and I Yelped and found this place and I wasn't impressed. I thought the food was mediocre. We ordered the Beijing duck, baked seafood & cream sauce over rice, chicken & salty fish fried rice and assorted vegetables with tofu dish. - The seafood baked rice was lacking seafood variety. I've had better elsewhere. - Beijing duck was okay but I've had better elsewhere. - Chicken & salty fish fried rice was okay but I've had better elsewhere. - The assorted vegetable with tofu dish was good but it's a dish where I feel like you cant mess up at restaurants. It went well with the fried rice. I also ordered their Eat Time exclusive milk too. It was in a cute presentation but I didn't care much for the milk tea. The décor in the restaurant was cute. Hello Kitty figurines and stuffed animals on their wall. It gave me a cute Hong Kong feeling. The Yelp reviews were so promising but I felt so disappointed. Maybe I ordered the wrong things? Until someone leads me to the right direction, in the meantime, sorry, but no, not coming back. read more

I came here to have some lunch with the hubby. We got a verity of different things to share so we can try a bit of everything. We got the honey walnut shrimp, they were amazing! We also got the peppered wings and wonton soup these burg also amazing. We got the braised beef brisket and sweet and sour pork. The pork was good as well the only thing we didn't really like was the brisket. The restaurant was clean and bright and the service was speedy. Over all we will return and would recommend to a friend. Thank you for yummy Chinese food. read more

Eat Time is an oasis in a Chinese food desert down south. There is not much else to compare it to from West Seattle to Burien. I have tried several dishes since they have been around, but tonight I had a craving for some of longtime faves: moo shu (any kind is good, tonight was chicken), scallion pancakes and hot and sour soup. I don't know if they have a new cook, but the food was even fresher and brighter than its usual high standard. The moo shu had a wider variety of vegetables/mushrooms (I am going to guess wood ear, lily flowers, maybe shiitake), and everything was cooked perfectly (not limp and overcooked). Soup had just enough cornstarch, because there is nothing worse than hot and sour that is too thick. My only complaint is they put hoisin in with my pancakes (which was probably just meant for the moo shu), and I missed the thin style sauce that usually comes with scallion pancakes. It's really easy to order online, and they text when the order is ready. If you eat in, service is always friendly, and I wish I could get one of their cute staff shirts. I have a feeling an Eat Time jag is about to happen! read more

Really wonderfully authentic Chinese food in Burien. The vegetables in each dish are fresh and stir fried to a tender crispiness instead of mush. Both the chicken and broccoli and beef and broccoli are succulent and delish with a side of very well made white rice that, amazingly, remains soft and smooth the next day even after a night in the fridge (so many restaurant rice become crunchy kernels of flavorless mess within a few hours). Their pork won ton soup is also highly recommended with a bounty of fresh veges and a wonderful, warming broth. Highly recommend their lunch specials that includes the entree of choose with sides of rice and a choice of hot and sour or egg drop soup. Each one under $14. There's very little dine in it seems at the moment, but it's the perfect take out dish for a home movie night. read more

I order from here when I don't bring lunch, the guy at the front is nice and portions are not too bad for one person.

I ordered the beef chow fun and salt and pepper squid, they were both very tasty. I was disappointed that it was not spicey and had to add it when I got home. I don't know if this style of cooking uses hot spices. Service was great, called it in and the food was ready in 15 min, The place is very bright and clean, and the employees were great. I'll be back for the beef chow fun. read more

The food was decent. We liked the flavor of the fried rice, the Mongolian beef was tender, we also had sweet and sour chicken and it had a nice crispness. I just couldn't get around the filth - the table cloths and even the empty tables had dirty tops. During covid when cleaning is at the forefront, and tables have been moved and separated, this would have been the ideal time to wash the tablecloths, the floors...etc. It was good enough food- but not the high stars others have given it. read more
