    One of the best places to get your barbecue ducks! Come to Seattles International District and visit King's Barbecue House! Make sure to bring cash only. No cards excepted! The service here is super quick, order your choice of barbecue and they'll cut it up for you and you'll get that yummy goodness duck sauce!! The best I've ever had!! This place doesn't really catch your eyes or anything like that with pretty decorations. But they do display at their windows the choices of meat you can choose from. It's the barbecue and the people that works there, that'll make you want to come back for more.

    I don't think this is the right spot for Chinese BBQ for me. I came here to buy a lunch combo during my break time. Two meats and rice. Pretty basic item that I tried in numerous restaurant. I picked the roast pork and scallion ginger chicken for my two meats choice. I didn't really pay much attention until I got back to my office. When I open my bag and taken the food out. First impression didn't make the cut already. It is really messy and small portion. Not to mention that the cut of the pork and chicken are huge like... can you chop pieces correctly?! Most of the places I went to before for Chinese or Cantonese cuisine for BBQ, they will pair vegetable on the side but this lunch combo is just plain. The taste wasn't there as well. Roast pork was too fat and greasy, usually a great roast pork should be balance lean, fat, lean, fat... There roast pork is mostly fat. The chicken was too big and flavor tasted unbalance. And still got plenty of chicken hair in them? Extra protein?! Lol... Overall, no second chance here!

    Turkey - they brine, marinate and roast it for you for a perfect thanksgiving.

    This review is long overdue. My parents and I have come here since I was a baby when Seattle felt like a small town. The butcher and the lady who work here are so kind and familial. They always remember us and greet us gladly despite how busy they are. The location is close to uwajimaya and there is plenty of street parking to hop off and grab some quick dinner. The food is amazing. We have ordered everything from meal boxes to a whole roast duck. They also have phenominal barbecue pork and roast pork. Their food is not for the vegetarians in this neighborhood, but if you are a meat eater this is the place for you. They can chop and package meats for you or leave them for you to roast and chop. Whatever you choose, their roast meets are crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside with perfect seasoning. The service is always great, sometimes they are very busy so it is helpful to have an idea what you like and come with a little patience or not near meal hours for less crowds. The prices is fairly reasonable. They do prefer cash so if you can try to bring some. Overall, highly recommend king's bbq whether for a quick lunch box or for a nice family dinner. This is the best for asian roast meats! Pro tip: for thanksgiving and christmas you can drop off your turkey and they will brine, season and roast it for you. Yum!

    Half pound of bbq pork and half pound of sausage
    Huong L.

    We decided to go out of our normal bbq place and checked this place out. There was a line outside so that's always a good thing. We had lunch prior to this so didn't really want to grab too much food so we ended up getting half a pound of bbq pork and half a pound of sausage. The butcher did a pretty rough estimation so we ended up getting more than what we need and paid more as well... The meat was just ok in my opinion, not great but not bad. The sausage was something unique that I don't see often and it was tasty. It looks like there lunch special is a good price so I might come back for that. Oh and it's cash only.

    Lunch bbq duck
    Ngoc-Diep P.

    Duck was meaty and good. Duck roasted is a bit less than other places aka less crunchy but the meat was tender and yummy compare to other places. Wish they include veggies like at least cabbage or something with their lunch plate. It was just rice and meat. Good deal still. Nice folks. Clean looking facility

    We celebrate Chinese New Year's Many selections but you better go early We like the roasted pork especially.

    Old meat, old skin. I should have paid more attention to them choosing the cut.  垃圾都不如

    Old meat. Old skin. I should have paid attention to them cutting. Cantonese bbq shops are know to put in scraps to add on the weight but I don't think they did that because the cut is scrap itself. 垃圾

    Probably the best duck that you can get on this side of the Pacific ocean! I've been eating here since 2012 and keep coming back for all that goodness. It is a simple restaurant with no seating and no real amenities except for the fallen angels making the food. I always get the duck and rice combo. They also have a couple other options but make sure they dump some duck fat on top of the rice for that extra flavor!

    King's is where I end up when I don't quite know what I want for lunch. My go to is usually the roast duck. But friend and fellow Yelper, Nelson L posted about their BBQ sausage on Instagram. So of course I was craving it, and it's close to work, Only going in a couple days of week with the stay at home order. They open at 10am which is nice since I had to help on something at noon. They take cash only. It was definitely nice to get two proteins a try this time the variety was nice. This place is nothing fancy but it's always clean and quick.

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.

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

    We came across the Seattle restaurant week menu and just had to try it. It was $50 for two people…read more We happened to go on the first day of restaurant week so luckily we made a reservation because it got a bit busier around dinner time. The wontons were good, but the chili sauce was the star. It was numbing and a little minty feeling. It was really great over the fried rice, which didn't stand out to me but was good to pair the dishes with. The crab and pork soup dumplings were sooo tasty, I would definitely get them again. The prawns we got were also great, I really enjoyed the crunchy coating and extras that came with it. I really enjoyed the space and food, I will definitely be coming back!

    WOWZA!!!! We were looking for a reservation in short notice and was surprised they have one within…read morethe hour for a group of 5. We showed up with half our party since the rest of our group had a hard time looking for parking, but they sat us right away and didn't give us a hard time at all. The decor is cute - darker lighting with spotlight on their cultural elements. Not gonna lie, when a restaurant over emphasizes its Asian decor, usually I have pretty low expectations for the food since it will likely be Americanized. This place proved me wrong! Their menu was a mix of Cantonese dishes, Taiwanese elements, Shanghainese dumplings and noodles, and Szechuan mala flavors. We probably over ordered but seriously enjoyed all the dishes. From most to least favorite: - Ginger & Scallion Fish Fillets: Sooooo fragrant and honey. LOVE! - Typhoon Shelter Beef Short Ribs: The fried garlic seasoning is fantastic, usually seen with crab or seafood but with short ribs it was excellent and super flavorful too - Black Truffle Wagyu Fried Rice: A pretty big portion for the price! The aroma of the truffle was fantastic but not overpowering - Half Hong Kong Style Honey Roast Duck: Hard to find good roast duck in the US so was happy to see it in the menu, skin was crispy and flavorful and the sauce was authentic as well. A tad too salty if I were to be nitpicky which is why it's not higher on the list - Traditional Kurobuta Pork Soup Dumplings: Good but not standout, not the star of the show compared to places that specialize in dumpings - Stir-Fry Green Beans: A little bland, can skip The Hong Kong Style iced lemon tea is just okay, but it's hard finding one truly authentic around here. Still enjoyed it! For the price point, ambiance, and quality of food, I was blown away and highly recommend!

    Went to Asian Kitchen in north Seattle for a family dinner and had a mixed experience…read more Service was pretty slow, even though there were only a few smaller tables seated. It took a long time for the food to come out, and when our entrees finally arrived, we weren't given rice. We had to go ask for it so we didn't end up eating everything else first. It felt like they might be understaffed, which didn't help the overall experience. The appetizer platter was a bit disappointing. The honey walnut shrimp didn't really land for our table -- though I will say the crispy coating was interesting and I appreciated that they used actual walnuts. The entrees were better. The chow mein was my favorite -- great smoky wok flavor, well seasoned, and just really satisfying. The seafood clay pot was also solid, with shrimp, fish, and tofu. The beef broccoli was nicely cooked too, especially the broccoli with garlic. Overall, there are some good dishes here, but with how slow the service was, I'm not sure I'd pick this spot again.
