Absolutely Delicious - Cleared My Bowl! The menu calls it a "Bamboo Shoot & Pork Trotter Bento," but it's actually a top-tier, incredibly satisfying Pork Trotter Rice Bowl! The meat is rich, deeply flavorful, and literally melts in your mouth. If you are looking for the ultimate cheat meal to hit the spot, this is it (just look at the generous meat portions ！） What really sets this place apart from others is the side dishes. Every single one is spot on. The baby spinach is fresh and cuts through the richness of the pork perfectly. It's also loaded with tofu puffs, stir-fried cabbage, pickled veggies, and half a braised egg. Unlike other places that skimp and only give you a tiny pinch of pickles, this bowl is packed with variety and will leave you completely stuffed. The best part: They also serve beef noodle soup, and you can add extra portions of braised beef, beef shank, and beef ribs! As someone who prioritizes high-protein options, finding a restaurant that absolutely nails both a macro-friendly fitness meal and a decadent cheat meal under one roof is a massive win. 10/10, highly recommend! read more

OMG I wish I had access to it-- and then realized I do! I came to the food truck by accident, but they have a stall location in Asian Family Mart plaza! The food is great. The portions are great. The veggies are great. 5 stars for all of it! I appreciate that not all of the options are deep fried as well. I previously enjoyed their friend chicken, of course, but I also really like their lu rou fan, as well as their take on mapo tofu! And their cabbage/spinach stuff is excellent. I think the only thing that isn't my favorite is their stewed egg; I've had better. But other than that, A+. read more

Located in a food court style area so you can choose to get a few things from different stalls if you'd like. The beef noodle soup was delicious! I like that you can choose what type of noodles, spice level, etc. Added braised beef to my bowl and it was a decent amount of meat. The lady who served our food was very friendly and offered to adjust the flavor of soup to our liking. read more

I added this business and posted the first review on this page back in April 2025, but for some reason Yelp decided to move it over to the food truck location. Just moving it back to the correct location after noticing the move more than a year later (Yelp doesn't give notification for some reason). I was getting groceries next door and decided to wander over to the Asian Street Food food hall for lunch, eventually settling on the Taiwanese biandang place, Lunch on the Plate. This seems to be the first B&M location for a food truck that roams around SLU. They sell a variety of different lunch boxes, with a kiosk in front of the stall for easy ordering. My food took about 10 minutes for them to fry up and assemble and soon I was digging in. Old School Fried Pork Chop Bento ($16.49) - They package food up in a plastic container with the lid on and tied in a plastic bag. I opened everything up as soon I as I picked up the food in order to preserve the freshly cooked texture. Upon opening the container, the strong fragrance of five spice and white pepper hits the nose, indicating liberal use on the two included pork chops. The pork chops are lightly breaded with coarse sweet potato starch and fried to a light crisp. They are exceptionally flavorful with the aforementioned spices and salt. There's a rim of fat along one side of each chop, conserving some of the moisture in the meat. The meat itself is not dried out or tough. On top of the fried pork chops, they scoop some minced preserved veggies, tangy, salty, and a bit spicy. Underneath the chops are a wide variety of vegetable based sides. There's corn in a butter and black pepper sauce, soft and tender stewed carrots, a mixture of cabbage, carrots, and black fungus, spinach, and finally half a marinated hard-boiled egg. This is all on a bed of perfectly cooked medium grain rice - fluffy but with a bite, allowing each individual grain to be felt. There's an excellent balance of protein, veggies, and rice, which is very well appreciated. Overall, the food feels more like home cooking rather than restaurant food, which is not a bad thing. It's probably way healthier and more nutritious than most restaurants around. (4/5) The food served at Lunch on the Plate is a bit on the pricey side, but portion sizes are pretty generous. It's a pretty good place to get a quick lunch after grocery shopping. Bathrooms - Larger ones as part of the food court. read more

I brought a friend with me to try here on a Saturday evening around 6pm. This is inside the Asian Family Market in Bel-Red and takes up a stall with other eateries around it while sharing a shared table and chair area for patrons to sit and eat at. Several foodies I followed on IG have been loving this place as of late, and the sheer number of people coming to their kiosks to place orders for their food reflected the hype I was seeing. They are best known for their big bento boxes of various kinds, and looking at their food on my phone made my mouth water. I got the braised pork hocks with bamboo bento, which came with the protein in the name of this dish along with corn, veggies and something that looked like tofu but wasn't. Maybe the food was left out a little too long, but the whole box and everything inside was lukewarm when I got it. I also didn't enjoy the overly chewy texture of the pork hocks, and the braised seasoning on it wasn't my favorite; it was salty and sweet yet something in the meat didn't complement that well. The hard-boiled egg and corn were actually my only favorite parts of the dish. My friend got the two-protein bento, one of the proteins also being the pork hocks. He also didn't enjoy the bento for the same reasons as me. I really wanted to enjoy this place and my food here but I couldn't get myself to finish the rest of the meat due to all the conflicting textures and taste. This was probably a one-off thing, and I'd like to give their fried proteins (fried pork chops, crispy fried chicken) a try the next time I come here. read more

Located in the food court of Asian Family Market, Lunch on the Plate is serving up Taiwanese comfort foods and bentos. They've got all the classics! We went with the Two Protein Bento with Popcorn Chicken & Classic Braised Dice Pork Belly and a Braised Beef Short Ribs + Beef Tendon Bento. Both came with corn, veggies, and half a boiled egg. Everything tasted super homey, warm, and familiar. You really can't go wrong here! read more

The roasted pork bento is incredibly value-packed! Crunchy roasted pork with crackling skin is insanely delicious, paired with herb seasoned pork, tea egg, fresh veggies and sweet corn over steamed rice; varied side veggies (spinach, pickled cabbage, pork liver) bring fantastic balanced nutrition and texture. Braised beef noodle boasts deeply concentrated spiced beef broth, ultra-tender braised beef and springy wheat noodles, fresh bok choy brightens up the whole bowl. Getting both meals together makes for an ultra-filling, flavorful Asian feast with layered savory tastes from roasted meat and slow-simmered beef soup. read more

Lunch on the Plate - Pop Corn Chicken Bento Braised Beef Noodle Soup (Choose Your Own Meat. Start From 9.99) - Taiwanese Near Me - Bellevue, Washington

I have been wanting to try this place from their food truck days, but never could due to their odd hours. Now that they have an actual shop inside Asian Family Mart, it makes it so much more convenient. I was able to order online and received a text message when it was ready for pickup by the time that was specified during the order. I ordered the two protein bento where you can choose which 2 proteins you want in addition to the accompaniments that included rice, corn, marinated egg, stir-fried cabbage, blanched spinach, and a a marinated tofu block. I chose the Spicy Pepper Chicken and Pork Hock with Bamboo Shoots as my proteins. Both were excellent. The Spicy Pepper Chicken was crispy, spicy (medium level-ish?) and flavorful. The pock hock portion was very generation and cooked to perfection. The skin was nice and gelatinous and the bamboo shoots added a slight stink to the dish (if you know, you know). The pork hock added a $4 additional charge as an option making my bento around $22. The portion was plentiful and I made it last 2 meals which I think is a pretty good deal. The parking in this plaza is decently sized, but if you are familiar with this popular Asian market/eatery plaza you'll know that it can get difficult during the busy meal times and sparse other times. So it really just depends when you go. read more

Sometimes Instagram influencers hype up the place too much and it's not real. And sometimes they aren't hyping it up enough! This place really does have the best beef noodle soup! The only thing I would say is that the the influencers had way more beef in their bowls than I did! Even the ones that said they didn't add extra. I'm sure the restaurant was a bit more generous for the promotion. But still, the beef noodle was amazing. The most flavorful, riches flavor I've had in the area. Meat was tender. Flavors were well balanced. I also love that because it's in a food court next to Asian Food Mart, there are many other restaurants nearby if the rest of your family want something else. Casual seating, bus your own table. Popcorn chicken was okay. Nothing great but also not bad. Pork hock was okay, not worth the upcharge in my opinion. The crispy chicken was really yummy. read more

I'm happy that Lunch on the Plate has a storefront after seeing their food truck around SLU. They are located in the Asian Family Market Food Hall in the front. Everything is ordered through the self order kiosk. I like that almost every item has a picture too. All items are packaged to go but there's self seating in the food market. I ordered the two protein bento and it was almost $20. I went with popcorn chicken and braised Taiwanese tofu. The popcorn chicken was crispy and flavorful. The braised tofu had two different types of tofu. I had a bite of my friend's pork chop and it was nicely crispy with no bone. I also had a side of tomato egg and it was okay - I wish there was more tomato flavor. Overall, lunch on the plate had a good selection of different items. The bentos were good but on the pricey end. I would like to they their beef noodle soup next time. read more

I saw a clip about the beef noodle soup at Lunch on the Plate. I decided that this was one of the places I had to try while visiting Seattle on this trip. I am staying near Southcenter in Tukwila, so it's around a 30 minute drive to Bellevue. I arrived shortly before closing on a weekday, it was a rainy day, so the food court was fairly empty. My first impression of their storefront was it looked very bright and clean. After studying their menu boards, I walked up to the counter to ask if they accepted cash payments. The worker said yes and took my order. I wasn't too hungry, so I ordered the beef noodle soup. He suggested that I add the beef and egg, which I did. The food took around 10 min, it wasn't too long of a wait. I absolutely loved this soup, the noodles were soft and a bit chewy. The broth was spicy and had lots of depth. The beef was soft and easily broke apart with my chopsticks. I did find it a bit difficult to enjoy the soup with the provided plastic spoon, I ended up drinking it from the bowl. When I first got the bowl of soup, I was worried it wasn't going to be enough to fill me, even though I wasn't too hungry... I was wrong, it was very filling. Since my first experience went well, I was driving back from up north and decided to stop at Lunch on the Plate again and pick up take out. This time I ordered the noodles, side order of pork chop, and the spicy chicken. The worker and I were talking and I was given a bento to try also. I absolutely loved everything I tried. I don't like cilantro and the sauce for the chicken had it; but I was able to eat it without the sace and still enjoy it. The bento had their braised pork hock and tofu with vegetables, both were very flavorful. The pork hock was cooked perfectly, it held together well, but wasn't tough. There was some kind of meat served over the rice, which reminded me of a chunky pork floss, that was very good. All of the food traveled and reheated well. I met a friend today for lunch here, again. My third time in a week; I would come back more but I leave later this afternoon. My friend and I both had the beef noodle soup, and each ordered a two protein bento. I got the pork chop and popcorn chicken. The employees here are very friendly, the food is reasonably priced and very good. Their food is also consistent, which is rare. read more

We ordered two beef noodle (thick and thin) soup and tripe side dish. Soup was flavorful, beef tender (melts in your mouth), and noodle is chewy so great mouth feel. I do wish they had hot chili oil as I like mine spicy and the sriracha hot sauce they do have doesn't do the noodle justice. Quick and friendly service. I appreciate that they offer and can adjust the salt level to customer's taste. They are also thoughtful with to-go containers. Instead of simple basic plastic containers, they have the plastic to-go containers that split the noodles from the soup base. Definitely will be coming back again. read more

I came by for a quick lunch with my son, and we were most impressed with the freshness of the dishes offered and variety of the dish offerings. Ordering was easy with a touchscreen system with well displayed pictures of everything available. The wait for the food afterwards during a busy lunch time was far shorter than we would've typically expected. My son went with the Two Protein bento, and I got the Old School Fried Pork chop. With the bento he chose the Beef tongue and Pork Belly for the protein sources. Both came with lots of rice that were well sauced. Alongside all of that I ordered extra eggs. Everything that was advertised as crispy was exceptionally crispy and everything was very flavorful and fresh tasting. The serving sizes were more than adequate, and we had to take home leftovers. I work nearby so I am now compelled to come back regularly so I can work my way through all of the dishes available. read more

Don't let the name and food court fool you! Great Taiwanese food with huge portions at a very inexpensive price! We had beef tendon noodles which had great flavor, ample tendons and noodles in a huge bowl. My Chinese mother approved! Also had beef shank noodles and the pork chop bento box, both equally delish. Quite busy for a Sunday evening with mainly Chinese speaking customers which proves the authenticity of the food and how popular this is. Owner and staff were very hospitable - found this place on social media and want to also spread the word! read more

Absolutely loved this place! The owner/ Lili? is incredibly friendly and makes you feel like family the moment you walk in. The beef noodle soup is out of this world -- rich broth, super soft beef, and perfect noodles and the tendon and tripe? Tender, flavorful, and done right. My daughters loved everything- the popcorn chicken, braised beef and braised pork belly bowls. All were super delicious and just the right level of seasoning. I'm already excited to come back! read more

I first heard about LotP from a YouTube video from a Taiwan news channel and I was really happy to find out that they opened this eastside location, saving me a trip to Seattle. So far, we've tried a few items and enjoyed all of them but, to my surprise, it is the braised pork belly bento is what I've been craving. There's plenty of the sauce and the meat to cover all the rice and it works well with the accompanying stir fry cabbage and braised tofu and egg (I'm getting hungry). I also have to call out the stir fry cabbage. It is one of my favorite dishes. The ones I had in Taiwan are saucy and the leaves are tender. So far, many Taiwanese places around Seattle gave me flash stir fried style with close to raw leaves. Only Memory Corner in Richmond BC gave me cabbage like what I had in Taiwan. I'm glad to say that LotP has the same kind of cabbage saving me a two-hour drive. Service wise, the Bellevue location is inside a food hall so there's no waiter and stuff, but the staff is friendly. I got to meet one the owners and I can tell she's passionate about their food. Anyways, definitely recommend giving this place for Taiwanese food. read more

We were buying some things from Asian Family Mart, and decided to check out the new food court. We already had dinner at home, so was not planning and buying any food. We looked at the menus at all the restaurants, and came back around to this place again. Their Spicy Pepper Chicken just sounded so good, we decided we needed to try it. We ordered the Two Protein Bento, and chose the Spicy Pepper Chicken and Classic Braised Diced Pork Belly for the two proteins. It came with some steamed veggies. We decided to sit down at one of the benches there. I just wanted to try a couple bites real quick while it was fresh and take the rest home, but it was so good, my bf and I shared it and finished it all there. The pepper sauce for the chicken was very flavorful and the chicken was tasty. The diced pork belly was also tasty, and came with half of an egg and corn. Even the veggies were good, and had some garlic flavor to it. We definitely plan on coming back soon. read more

Lunch on the Plate is inside the food court adjacent to Asian Family Market. Whoever came up with the idea for the food court: thank you, love it! There's plenty of parking outside and it's super convenient to go from the market into the restaurant area to browse what's there. The restaurant is facing one of the doors, close to the market, so easy to find. They have multiple menus posted, with photos, and you place your order at the kiosk, then it automatically texts you when your order is up. There are various tables and chairs throughout the food court if you choose to dine in. I ordered a two-protein plate (lu rou fan and pork chop); the lu rou fan was lighter colored than I'm used to seeing it, but it was delicious anyway, as was the pork chop. I also ordered a crispy pork belly plate; the owner told me he didn't have a full order's worth of pork belly left, so he wanted to know if he could comp me a pork chop for the shortage - um, yespleaseandthankyou! The food was all delicious flavors of childhood, and I love the biandang concept. Will definitely be back! read more
