While the name says it is a noodle house, they are also known for their clay pot rice. We went here…read morefor an early dinner and actually it was quite busy, while the restaurant emptied out during the conventionally peak dinner period. We got the preserved meat clay pot rice, salt and pepper fried fish filet, and beef brisket and wonton noodle soup. The clay pot rice was okay - the pricing is fair but the execution could be a bit better. I felt like the rice was a bit lacking in flavor, and they only have the standard soy sauce, not the ones in a sauce tray that is usually a bit sweeter. The salt and pepper fried fish filet was good - definitely recommend that for the taste and value. The noodle soup was also good - the wontons were okay but I loved the beef brisket. Noodles seem to be handmade as the texture is a bit uneven, but I appreciate these types of noodles more. Service is standard for a Chinese restaurant - you just need to flag them down and requests are fulfilled in a timely manner

I'm sad that it took me this long to finally try Jufeng Noodle House, but now that I have, believe…read morethat I'll be making up for lost time. 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 negative thing was the seats are too close to each other, our neighbors chairs kept hitting ours. Small cocktail menu but they're all pretty good. Definitely worth coming back for! My favorite was definitely the PARAN Galbi. The meat was tender and flavorful, but I especially loved the bright citrus taste! It added a refreshing balance to the richness of the galbi. This one is a must! The Je-yuk was another standout. The savory, spicy pork paired with the creamy sauce was such a smart combination. I have to say it's not super spicy. Maybe it's the creaminess balanced the heat perfectly and made every bite really satisfying. The Rose Jjim-Dak was rich, creamy, and comforting, with great sweet and spicy Korean flavors. It does come with some rice cakes. M.B.P: A fun, fruity vodka cocktail with mango, berries, and peach. If you prefer something smooth, sweet, and refreshing, then you need this drink. Matcha Lush: Another vodka based cocktail that balances sweet and bitter matcha. It's sweet at first and the aftertaste is more earthy. Golden Garden: A gin cocktail with fruity notes and a tropical feel. Light and also refreshing. You can definitely taste the gin for sure.

Bo ne or sizzling beef with pate, eggs and fresh baguette is one of my all time favorite foods. This is probably the best I have had outside of Orange County, CA. The beef stew is delish and all our friends raved about the banh mis and the fresh bread. Our waitress convinced us to try some new menu items, the salted foam Vietnamese coffees (not pictured) and salted foam strawberry matcha and a Pandan coffee. I have had Viet coffees in vietnam, all over the east coast in NYC, Philly and in Houston and Westminster, CA. These drinks were the BEST! Flavors were fantastic and price point was great. I came back to Philly for a sea salt Viet coffee and was saddened it didn't taste as good as this one in Seattle lol. Parking is free via QR code inside. Dont leave visible valuables in your car (honestly anywhere downtown Seattle) and come give this place a try for great food, drinks and friendly service at a great price point.

Raku Shabu Shabu is always one of the best places to go for shabu-shabu in Seattle!…read more I love their ingredients: they're fresh, simple, and high quality. The servers are very friendly and attentive, checking in regularly even though it's an ayce shabu shabu restaurant. I've been here many times and always enjoy bringing friends back. We're always craving great-quality shabu shabu, and Raku never disappoints. The dining environment is wonderful as well. It's bright, clean, and comfortable, unlike many other places. The tables are never sticky, and even the restrooms are well maintained. I've always had a great dining experience here. And don't forget the best part: they serve high quality ice cream at the end of the meal. I'd say it's another must try at Raku! I can't wait to come back again!

Raku is a really solid shabu shabu spot in the Cap Hill neighborhood. I went for dinner there with…read moremy husband, who is vegetarian, and he was very happy with their options for him. When you go in and are seated, you order on an iPad at your table. I had the single set that included one meat option (I had the thinly sliced beef), one noodle (I had the fresh noodle) and one broth (I had the spicy mala broth) which was $36, and he had the single veggie set and chose the miso broth. I was surprised and impressed by the fact that they had more than one vegetarian broth option, when most hot pot places only have one. You then wait for them to bring your broth and meat to you, which each come in individual pots that you cook on your own stove. The AYCE portion here is the veggie bar and the sauce bar. The veggie bar includes a bunch of fresh vegetables, tofus, and seafood balls. You can load up with items from the buffet whenever you'd like, but don't go too crazy as you get charged money at the end if you don't finish what you grab. The sauce bar has everything you need to make your own personalized dipping sauce. I appreciated that everything was clearly labeled (because differentiating one dark brown liquid from another can get pretty dicey without labels). I found the individual stoves very responsive, which allows you to waste minimal time waiting for your broth to boil. It also makes it easy to turn your heat down when you're not actively cooking something, so that you don't have to worry about your broth boiling over or burning to the bottom. The vegetables are very fresh and delicious, and the meat that I had was lovely as well. I enjoyed the mala broth, found it to have a mild kick without being overly spicy, and my husband really enjoyed his vegetarian miso broth. Overall, the food here was great. I do wish that the vegetable bar also included things like noodles or dumplings, though, which I have seen at other hot pot restaurants. I do think that the veg bar selection could be larger, but the quality of what they do have is great. The restaurant is very clean, and seemingly well maintained. One odd thing, though, is the seating arrangement if you go as a duo/couple. Rather than having standalone two tops, they seat groups of two French style at a four top, across from another group of two, where the two groups are separated by a physical barrier in the middle of the table. I have no issues sitting French style, and often prefer it, but what this means is that on a busier night you will likely spend your meal sitting right across the table from a duo of strangers. No problems with this in principle, but in practice this means that you can hear their entire conversation and they can hear yours, but you can't see them, which does honestly feel kind of awkward. I understand why the restaurant does it, to maximize their space, but it is the one thing I didn't enjoy about the experience. The playlist here is also a bit random. Service is solid, quite unobtrusive but they are good at keeping your water filled and the buffet stocked. Overall this is a really solid option for shabu shabu, great for vegetarians, that we will likely visit again.
