The crust is ultra crispy, and the meat inside stays wonderfully juicy with every bite. Don't sleep on their egg tarts either -- they are insanely delicious, perfectly creamy and flaky.

The menu had so many options for drinks including a premium section! We ordered their kalbijjim with cheese and it did not disappoint. The cheese pull was immaculate and the meat was so tender. It definitely hit the right spot and was a much needed way to relax after a long busy day. Will absolutely come back here when we're in the area again

Really love the quantity and flavors. Took my parents to try galbijim for the first time and they…read moreenjoyed it. The experience itself was great and food was great. We loved the ban chan options a lot. It helped cut the meat and break uo the flavors. I will say the galbijim is good alresdy without the cheese. With the cheese all i tasted was cheese and when the food got cold it felt so thick. I'd rather just have the meat and flavors itself and enjoy it for what it was.

Amazing food! Jennie was our server and offered great recommendations. Will be coming back every…read moretime we visit Seattle

Located where Facing East used to be, they serve very delicious hand pulled noodles. We had the…read moreSpicy Tingly beef noodle, pork noodles, and beef sandwich. Everything was delicious. The beef noodle has a good kick but not overwhelming, you can still taste the flavorful beef broth. The noodles had a great chew. The kids had the pork noodles and that was also very delicious. 2 self ordering kiosks, most items had pictures which makes it easier to order. The gentleman behind the counter was really nice and helped me answer some questions regarding the menu. The space is nice and clean, shares the bathroom with Snowy Village. They also had homemade peach tea which was complimentary! Overall amazing experience. Kid friendly with kid bowls.

Just had lunch at Cho Dang Tofu restaurant and it was such a great time! Friendly, attentive staff,…read moredelicious food and fun atmosphere. When we first sat down, we were given hot barely tea. For food, I ordered the mixed (seafood + beef) tofu soup which came with 4 assorted ban chan, fried fish and ceramic pot white rice. Note: there's peas on the rice. My husband ordered the combo tofu soup + protein entree, which he chose beef tofu soup and bulgogi (thinly sliced marinated beef) and it was delicious! We shared the entree since it was pretty large size. The combo also came with side dishes, rice and fried fish. It was nicely grilled, easy to eat with small bones. Ban chan was pretty unlimited with staff constantly walking around to check in and make sure you have enough side dishes to enjoy with your meal. I have to note, the service is incredible! I couldn't have had a better lunch experience than my first time at Cho Dang. Will be back soon and highly recommend to friends :)

This was my first time at this restaurant, and they did not disappoint. I ordered the seafood and…read moretofu soup. It came with clams, oysters, and shrimp inside. The spice level was at spicy, but it wasn't an unbearable spicy. Just the right amount. Their tofu stews come with banchan that included zucchini, fish cake, bean sprouts, and Kimchee. It also came with a stone pot rice and a fried fish. Overall, the food was delicious and service was quick and attentive. They served us barley tea to start with and continuously checked to make sure everything was good. The layout of the restaurant itself is very spacious and clean. It's a very comfy restaurant and the food items pair well especially when it's cold and raining outside. Would highly recommend trying this place out.

Quality of the broths at YGF is phenomenal. The tomato and the spicy beef are the best. The…read moreservice is friendly and I'm not sure how they do it but every ingredient you put in the bowl ends up being cooked perfectly. All in all it's similar quality to what you'd get at a place like HiDiLao but at a fraction of the price and with more choice.

This chain restaurant has been on my list of establishments to try…read more Every time i pass one of these restaurants there is always a long waiting line. This particular restaurant has limited seating and was crowded, but there were a couple of tables available so we decided to finally try it. You get a really big soup bowl to fill w/ your favorite ingredients ( large assortment of : veggies, seafood, meats, mushrooms, tofu and noodles). Then you pick a soup broth. They charge $15.99 per pound for selection of food. Once your food is cooked in broth, they call your number and you pick up your bowl of delicious soup. (I chose "bone broth" and my dining partner chose mushroom broth) They have various sauces and dipping condiments, hot sauces, cilantro, scallions , etc to choose from too. They serve slices of watermelon while you wait for your soup and have soft serve vanilla ice cream to end your meal. Will definitely return to try more!

Absolutely AMAZING. First visit today and already started planning our next one before we even left…read morethe table. We were craving soup dumplings and wanted to venture somewhere new outside of our usual West Seattle orbit. So naturally, we chose to make the drive during peak rush hour. Completely worth it. The vibe here is ridiculously cute, and the playlist had both guests and staff singing along lyrics to songs I probably haven't heard in a decade. (Hellogoodbye & all American rejects?! Yesssss) And for the food we started with FULL HEAT: Szechuan Spicy Xiao Long Bao -- AMAZING flavor and definitely packs a punch. So hot, but so addicting. Far exceeded expectations. I want to live inside one of these lil fire balls of magic Hot & Sour Soup -- We added extra spice and it was perfect. It's also a generous portion which is shocking for $7.50. It came out first and we knew after the first bite that the rest of the meal was going to be awesome Spicy Shrimp & Pork Wontons -- not too spicy, great flavor and very meaty. At one point, our server came by to refill our sodas and asked, "How is everything, spicy?" And yes. Yes, it was. Though nothing lingered too long and the heat did not overpower the flavor of any of the dishes. All was perfectly balanced. Our server came to the rescue with her recommendation for the Mini Pan-Fried Pork Dumplings. Imagine a soup dumpling that decided to put on a crispy little jacket. SO GOOD. And a huge shoutout to Melyna, who was absolutely phenomenal. She knew the menu inside and out, was incredibly sweet, and was somehow always two steps ahead when it came to service and prebussing. She was attentive and made us feel genuinely taken care of. Honestly, this was easily the best service I've had in Seattle since moving here from Los Angeles. I know there's a location closer to where I live, but after this visit, we definitely fell in love with this spot. Thank you Melyna for making an already great meal even better!

Walk in on a friday night was probably a mistake. Had to wait longer than an hour. also my name got…read moreremoved for the waiting list when the whole group was literally sitting inside and waiting.. which was kind of annoying. They didn't even put me back on the top of the list, they just put me back as someone who just arrived. Staff didn't apologize or anything which is why I am giving 3 stars for this location. Also parking can be bad since parking lot here is full all the time. Food is great though. I usually get sichuan xiao long bao, truffle xiao long bao. I tried wagyu xiao long bao this time which was just okay for the price you are paying. I would prob skip next time. My go to is dan dan noodles and egg fried rice and chili wonton. I tried their spring beans and they were pretty decent! I would say all the food i've tried so far is pretty good, and I would like to try different dishes.

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.

Located in an unassuming strip mall. 4.5 Stars…read more The menu features a delightful mix of Korean and Japanese dishes, with some items creatively fused together. Inviting Atmosphere - The interior is beautifully designed, showcasing a lovely earthy forest green palette complemented by mahogany-toned furniture. Food - The California Roll ($12) was a masterpiece--expertly crafted with an optimal rice-to-filling ratio. A light brushing of sesame oil on top elevated the flavor of the entire roll. The Rose Tteokbokki ($20) was not to my taste; I prefer a more traditional version. The cream and cheese made it a bit heavy for my liking. However, the toppings, including bulgogi gyoza and shrimp tempura, were deliciously crispy and freshly fried. Excellent Service - The staff is exceptionally polite and attentive.

Bit of a late review, but swung by Jiang Nan for Seattle Restaurant Week with a same day…read morereservation at 6:30 PM. The Bravern does have its own underground lot that the restaurant will validate parking for and I'd say you can definitely walk in on a weekday no problem. The restaurant did seem extremely short staffed with service being extremely slow. We ended up taking more than 2 hours for dinner just because the amount of time it took to place our orders and wait for our food. Overall, the menu is a mix of American style Chinese food and some more traditional dishes. Most of the dishes were made well advance, but you can really tell. The Peking duck was insanely dry and the braised pork belly also wasn't braised quite long enough. The sweet and sour chicken wasn't super crunchy, but the flavor was solid; though I will say, the blueberries were just warmed blueberries on the plate and didn't add anything. The mushroom truffle fried rice was pretty delicious though as was the complimentary soup with the restaurant week set. TLDR food is a bit expensive with some standouts, but generally slightly subpar. Service is insanely slow.

It might seem a bit pricey at first but consider this in Bellevue, I would say it costs around, or…read morejust slightly pricey than Chengdu Memory in Downtown (both serve Chengdu hotpot). Their pork bone broth is tasty but also is the spicy broth as there was more to it than just numbing spicy. Their beef and lamb plate might not be as much as the platter at Chengdu but still fulfilling enough for two. Our servers are really nice and tentative. It's located in a building with free validated parking so the interior is very modern and spacious. It feels quite as a luxury fancy hot pot place than Haidilao or Chengdu

They have a veggie bar as well which you pay for per person. The side dishes aren't too vast, but there is a decent selection - I LOVED their woodear mushrooms! They were so garlickey and flavorful. The meats and sauces otherwise were pretty standard for hotpot. The spicy broth is quite spicy so beware. I really liked the basa fish, as well as the tender beef but towards the end they all kind of tasted the same. I did really love the dessert though, as they had all my favorites - black rice soup, red beans, jelly, etc. It's a good spot if you're in bellevue and want some authentic hotpot!
