The first location I tried was in Bellevue and it was delicious so I wasn't surprised when the Lynnwood location was delicious as well! The jjajangmyeon is a must order! Well seasoned and perfectly cooked noodles. Order the one with extra meat for a punch of protein & perfectly seared strips of pork! We also enjoy: Garlic chicken wings Sweet and sour chicken - the batter is much crispier and reminiscent of fried chicken Sweet and sour pork - classic Beef jampong- nice and clean w/ a touch of spice from chilies The service is good and they're friendly as well. We will always be back for our fave Korean-Chinese food! read more

I actually prefer this location over the bellevue one - Similar parking situation but neighboring a boba shop and a bakery! Dishes are pretty standard Korean Chinese food. Jajangmyeon is good both standard and stir fried. Wings are small but tasty and come with fries. I'm not a huge fan of Korean's take on the sweet and sour pork overall, but it tastes pretty standard to the other similar restaurants. You order at the counter prior to finding a seat. This location is way less busy than the Bellevue one, with newer and brighter interior. read more

I enjoyed the jajangmyeon but was not too impressed with the sides. Ample parking in a nice plaza right next to the mall. Order first and pay before sitting down. It can get quite packed and tables may not be cleaned, so dining in can be hit or miss. There's no real service but they do clean up tables, so no bussing dishes back. Stir-fried Jajangmyeon - larger portion, amazing for sharing! Rich and savory. Bits of pork, squid, and shrimp make up the protein here and everything is mixed together which makes the dish ready to serve and share. They provide a pair of scissors to help cut those long noodles stuck on the mountain of food. Overall good bang for the buck while also being tasty. Sweet and Sour Chicken - I'll start by appreciating they decouple the sauce and the chicken. Not sure I would have finished the food if they were together because there was an abundance of sauce that was overly sour. Chicken wasn't dry but also wasn't the most juicy. Each piece was fried lightly with a nice crunch. I did not feel like there was much meat for the price. A lot of the sharp, protruded corners were simply fried batter and no meat which make the plate visually full. read more

Been craving some jajangmyeon for a while and heard this one opened up in Lynnwood. Came here a little early for dinner on a Friday night. Decent amount of seating inside. You first order your food at the counter and then you pick a table. They quickly brought out a side order of sweet and sour pork that I was sharing with my kid. Appreciate how they give the sauce in the side so you can sauce up your deep fried pork and much or as little as you want. The pork was lightly battered and airy. Nice sauce, not too sweet. The jajangmyeon was just the right portion of noodles and sauce. I opted for the meat version, which had an extra portion of meat. Noodles were wonderfully soft and allowed the sauce to mix in. Well balanced flavor. This place definitely hit the spot to cure my craving. Thankful we came in early as it got busy real quick after we got there. read more

Get bang for your buck! Big portions, food feels fresh and kind service / owners. The same owners own the Bellevue one as well. Feels like a casual fast dining restaurant.

Paik's Noodle - 쟁반짬뽕 Stir-fried Jjamppong - Chinese Near Me - Lynnwood, Washington

Came in when they reopened at 430pm and it was already bussstlin w people This is a joint where ya order first before sitting down--luckily there was a spot for us immediately after ordering I got their regular jjajangmyeon + a "sample size" jjamppong, which ended up being about $25 after tax/tip. The jjajangmyeon was solid, the noodles were fresh and the black bean sauce was pretty tasty considering the nature of this restaurant. One thing I do wish I got different was their jjajangmyeon option that includes extra pork. Now for that sample size jjampong.. I was confused bc apparently it's just the soup without any noodles haha. Idk if this was general knowledge but I was stumped by that lmao. The soup itself tasted.. burnt? Idk. I wasn't really feeling it read more

Paik's is great if you like a blend of fast casual with modern authentic food. The food comes very quick, but we ordered only fried items, so maybe that's why. Food has to be paid for ahead of time, and there's no wait staff. The only time workers came by was to drop off the food, so water was never refilled. The water container they provide is barely enough for 3 people after 2 rounds. We tried the sweet and sour fried chicken and fried pork. They use the same sauces. I preferred the fried pork more than the fried chicken because I didn't realize from the picture that it was literally fried chicken. The fried chicken was super hard and crispy and cutting my mouth from the inside. It was also mostly breading, so I didn't see the value in the sweet and sour fried chicken. read more

Overall a great experience at Paik's Noodles! The jajangmyeon had fantastic flavor. Rich, savory, and well-balanced. The black pepper beef was another highlight with bold, satisfying seasoning. The sweet and sour pork was decent, though the sauce leaned a bit too sweet for my taste. Not a dealbreaker, but I'd probably try something else off the menu next time. Solid spot! Would definitely return! read more

Paik's Noodle - Sweet and Sour Pork & Jajangmyeon - Chinese Near Me - Lynnwood, Washington

I've been wanting to go to Paik's Noodle for a while, and considering the franchise is run by celebrity Chef Paik Jong Won, you'd want to see how delicious it actually is. This was my first time going to a Paik's Noodle location. I know there is one in Bellevue, too. I came here with my friend, and we both ordered the jjajangmyeon, of course. The jjajangmyeon came hot and very saucy. Upon eating it, the black bean sauce was so delicious and perfectly coated both the vegetables and the noodles. Paik's jjajangmyeon contains peas, which I'm not much of a fan of, but that doesn't matter if the overall dish can blend them in. I would say the ratio of vegetables to pork is more vegetables than actual meat. They definitely try to skimp out on it. My friend and I were able to finish our jjajangmyeon, so you know the portions are quite reasonable for one person. I would mark this as a standard jjajangmyeon spot in the area, and I can't wait to come back and have their other dishes. read more

Paik's Noodle - Jjajangmyeon - Chinese Near Me - Lynnwood, Washington

This is the new location in Lynnwood at Alderwood Plaza, and there's generally plenty of parking available within walking distance. I've visited this location twice in the past few months since they opened and had two very different experiences. First visit: It was a party of three, and we added our name to the waitlist. We were called to order at the register within about 15-20 minutes, which wasn't bad considering it was lunchtime and pretty busy. After ordering and paying, we took our number and found a table. The staff was attentive and even checked in to see if we needed refills on the pickled radish. Second visit: This experience felt like a complete 180. We came during dinner with a larger party of six (including a baby), so we expected a longer wait--which was totally fine. However, the process was very different this time. After our name was called, we were seated right away and told someone would come take our order. After about 10 minutes with no one stopping by, we had to go up and ask. They apologized and said they had forgotten, then came over to take our order. Food timing was also inconsistent. Some dishes--like the fried items and stir-fried jajangmyeon (black noodles)--came out quickly, while one of my friend's meat jajangmyeon arrived much later, after most of us had already finished eating. It's hard to say if the difference was due to how busy it was, since both visits were during peak hours. Food & ambiance: Despite the service issues on the second visit, the food portions were generous and the quality was great. The ambiance leans more toward a fast-casual style--order, eat, and go--rather than a relaxed, full sit-down dining experience. Overall: Even with the inconsistent service, I still enjoy the food and would come back. I'm giving them the benefit of the doubt that it may have been an off day or newer staff still getting up to speed. TL;DR: Great food and portions, but service can be inconsistent depending on the visit. Worth coming back for the food--just be prepared for possible hiccups during peak times. read more

I LOVE Korean-Chinese food! I'm glad to see that Paik's has opened their second location here in Washington! We dined for lunch and it was busy, proving that I'm not the only one who loves Korean-Chinese food! The jjamppong had a decent kick to it, with a decent amount of fresh seafood. It more than fixed my noodle soup craving! Jajjangmyeon and tangsuyuk are such a classic pair, and they're both done extremely well at Paik's Portions are definitely big enough to share, but you might not want to. read more

First time for us to try this restaurant. Happy that this restaurant specializes more with noodles, as opposed to Korean BBQ. Not that I don't love that, but it's great to have a different option. So the menu is a bit limited, but what they do here is really good. We had the fried chicken wings and they were crispy, including the French fries. Really good! The noodle bowls were large, tasty---the one with the beef, rich snd flavorful broth. The seafood really tasted like fresh from the sea. The sweet sour looked beautiful and unique with the coating. The sauce was a little thin, though and not too sour. Maybe that's the Korean take on it. The room is one large room with a lot of tables. Noise level is quite loud. Food came out reasonably on time. The servers were nice and friendly. Our experience was good. read more

Paik's Noodle is a new place in Lynnwood. Got to try soy garlic chicken wings, sweet and spicy chicken wings, sweet and sour pork and couple of noodle dishes. It's not your typical Korean restaurant as this is a Korean Chinese restaurant. I personally didn't enjoy the food because it's not my kind of flavor profile. Some were lacking in flavor in my opinion. It's was just spicy. Some of the sweet and sour didn't taste like it. Service is good. You actually order from the counter and food is served. However we were such a big group that they offered to get our order from our table. It's a clean restaurant. When to sit, water, utensils and condiments are by your side. read more

Tried out this new spot and honestly, it did not disappoint. The shop is super clean and has a fresh, modern vibe. Ordering is simple you place your order first, then grab a seat, which keeps everything moving quickly. Service was fast, and the food came out hot and fresh without a long wait. Everything we ordered was flavorful and well-presented. You can tell they care about quality, not just speed. Definitely a solid go-to if you want something quick but still really good. I'll be back. read more

I been wanting to come to this place ever since I watched culinary class wars. When I heard there's a new location in Lynnwood I knew I had to come. It was quite busy when we came and had to wait for a while. We got the spicy seafood noodle soup and the sweet and sour pork. I loved the noodle soup!! It was soooo flavorful and we loved the flavor of the soup. There was soo much toppings as well and the squid was really soft. However the mussels were chewy. The sweet and sour pork was okay. The sauce was way too sweet for us and we would have rated it higher if it wasn't as sweet. Too overpowering. But the fried pork was nice, I like the chewiness of the batter. read more

I love jjajangmyeon, but a restaurant that does it right is hard to come by in WA. My cousin and I have tried Paik's in Carrollton, TX and liked it there, so when we heard they were bringing one to Lynnwood we had to try it. There's plenty of free parking available in the lot as this location is in the same plaza as 85* degree bakery where the old GameStop used to be. Upon walking in, you should walk to the counter to place an order with the person there as there's no menus at the tables. The menus are instead projected on the TVs above the register or they one a physical copy too taped on the counter. Each item of food has a picture by it and you order then pay before you sit down. You can choose any table as they're all set up with water and utensils already. jjajangmyeon: we decided to order a bowl each and this was a smart decision because we were both pretty hungry. I think that if this is your main entree, get one each but you could definitely split it if you were ordering some other dishes as well. There was a healthy portion of noodles and they were more of the thicker side. I personally prefer thicker noodles because they hold the sauce better in my opinion, but my cousin prefers thinner ones. They have a good bounce to them and are chewy. The sauce itself had lots of beef, onions, and green peas inside. It wasn't too watery like other locations, but I did wish the black bean taste was stronger. It's more of a light taste, so I added vinegar & the red chilis on the table to enhance the flavoring which helped. soy garlic chicken: you can choose between 5 pieces or 10. We chose 5 and they were all pretty large pieces. It's a mix of bone in drums and flats, but fried very nicely. The meat was succulent. The batter wasn't thick at all and the sauce stuck to the chicken well. You could taste the garlic and hint of sweetness. The fries on the side were also very fresh. You can tell they fry them to order and had the perfect ratio of soft potato inside to crispy outside. I feel like the prices were pretty reasonable for the portion & quality of food. Everything was fresh and the staff were all very sweet! You take a number tag with you to your table so they can find you. The food all came out in about 10 minutes and they'll check in on you if everything's good, but leave you alone for the most part. There's many tables in the restaurant and they even have booths against the back wall for larger groups. I liked how spacious, open and clean the interior was. It's a very chill spot to come get a quick meal or catch up with friends. We saw lots of Asian grandmas and grandpas in there which is always a good sign :) I'd recommend & will be back. read more

Paik's Noodle is worth the visit. The interior is clean and airy, with an open layout that the staff made even more welcoming. They happily rearranged tables to fit parties of all sizes without missing a beat. We went with the jajang rice and tangsuyuk, and both delivered. The jajang sauce is the real deal: rich, deeply savory, loaded with tender onions and meaty bits. Easily one of the best in the area. The tangsuyuk was a pleasant surprise: fresh, crispy, but with a mochi-like chew to the breading that adds a satisfying texture. That small twist that makes a big difference. Solid food, great staff, and a space that actually feels good to sit in. Highly recommend.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ read more

Came here with some friends who know the show and had to give the celebrity restauranteur's spot a try. The dishes on the menu looked interesting at least, black bean noodles which can be hard to find around here. We got those and the wings, sweet and sour pork, almost half the menu really. Everything tasted like the kitchen was clean, good techniques, good ingredients, just bad recipes. Everything was a flavor and textural nightmare. The pork was basically dehydrated and I'm not even joking. They had cooked any juiciness completely out of it and you got concentrated dried pork and oil that was not a great experience. Everything else was pretty bland but nothing 'bad' per se. I came here knowing celebrity spots like these are usually disappointments so at least I set my expectations correctly. Skip this spot and try one of the many great local Korean spots around town instead. read more

I really wanted to like this place. I may be willing to give it one more try and also had high hopes because my sisters took me to this chain in San Diego back in October last year and liked it a lot so I was looking forward to it! My husband and I ordered jjajangmyun, jjampong, and the sweet and sour pork. Everything tasted smokey and not in a good BBQ kind. I couldn't wrap my tastebuds around it but it was just smokey and also really black pepper-y. I don't understand why the sweet and sour pork was also sprinkled in black pepper from the looks of it. I'm usually not a jjampong person but the seafood portion was great at least. Both the noodles were more on the firmer side which I like mine softer and chewier. The sweet and sour pork, I appreciate the sauce being on the side and I know it can get kind of runny but 10 minutes in, it felt and looked like gelatin, kind of disturbing if I'm being honest. The staff were nice so no complaints there although we witnessed some major safety hazards... but that's a different story. read more

Good food with quick service! I got my noodles to go and appreciated that the sauce, noodles (and even radish) were included in separate containers! There was plenty of sauce, maybe more than needed for the noodles too. If I'm in the area, I'd come back if I'm craving some jajangmyeon. read more

This is a fast service type place - order at the counter, find your own seat, and they'll bring you your food. The utensils are self-serviced by the counter, though we had a server who brought us our chopsticks since we're a bit of newbies at this place (also they're not that busy at the time). Seating area is clean, bright and simple. We ordered stir fry jajangmyeon and cream shrimp for 2 people. It's the right amount of food to share. Cream shrimp is basically Chinese honey walnut shrimp, but with almonds instead. The dressing is divine! The noods is standard affair, exactly as expected so I call it a win. I would def come back to try other things on the menu. read more

I love Paik's! One of the more solid chains I've been to so I was excited to see they opened in Lynnwood! It's a spot where you order at the counter and they give you a number to take to your table. We got the jjajeongmyeon and soontofu jjamppong which are my go-tos. Both really great! The noodles were perfectly cooked in both, and I especially liked adding the tofu into the jjamppong. I only wish they did the thing at many other korean spots where you can get smaller portions of both in one order. That way I wouldn't have to choose which one to get! read more

Paik's Noodle is a Korean chain that specializes in Korean Chinese food, and they have been expanding like crazy throughout the US and even Europe. This is the second location in the Seattle area with another location opening a couple years back in Bellevue. The Lynnwood location delivers the same menu but in a larger more open space in a strip mall with a larger more spacious parking lot. Went there with the fam and we tried the standards - Jjajangmyun, Jjamppong, mandu and Tangsooyuk. Overall, the food is similar to Bellevue. The noodle dishes were pretty good but not as good as places in BC.The sweet and sour pork was fried well, but had a slight after taste. The dumplings were really good with being crispy and a little chewy at the same time. Service is also the same as Bellevue - order at the counter and they will bring out the food. Overall, it's nice to have a location on this side of the bridge. read more

Casual dining, upon walking in we saw signs to order at the counter. Fairly prompt service although not very helpful. After ordering I realized you can get jjamppong with rice instead of noodles. It was assumed we wanted noodles rather than being asked. Fried dumplings were basic. Hubby got meat jjamppong while I ordered the standard. His came out first while mine took a bit longer. Broths tasted the same his just had more of the 'meat worms' as he called them. Broth had a nice seafood base, not very spicy or thick. read more

Paik's Noodle - Sweet & sour chicken, jjamppong and stir-fried jajangmyeon for takeout - Chinese Near Me - Lynnwood, Washington

Came here for dinner a few weeks ago and the place was packed, which is usually a good sign! Just a heads up--don't come here unless you're ready to wait about an hour, or try coming on a weekday when it's probably less busy. The process was a bit confusing at first since none of the staff explained how it worked. There's a waitlist machine in the corner where you enter your number, but it's easy to miss. The wait times online also didn't match the actual wait. Once your name is called, you'll order at the counter. It's best to wait near the counter since that's where they call names--if you wait outside, you might miss it. After ordering, they give you a number and you can find a seat. The food itself was pretty good and tasted fresh, which I appreciated. Overall a solid spot, but personally not something I'd wait an hour for again. read more

Paik's Noodle - Sweet and sour pork, stir fry shrimp noodles, and meat jajangmyeon! - Chinese Near Me - Lynnwood, Washington

I had a disappointing experience ordering from this Lynnwood location. We ordered three dishes, one of which was Jajangmyeon. After paying, we sat down and waited for our food. When the first dish arrived, it was Sweet & Sour Pork (Tangsuyuk). We were confused because we thought it might have been intended for another table. We pointed this out to the employee, but she insisted that it was what we had ordered. We explained that we had clearly ordered Jajangmyeon, but were told that they had already made the dish and there was nothing they could do. She then tried to justify it by saying that she had asked whether we wanted extra rice because Sweet & Sour Pork is often eaten with rice. Since we specifically wanted Jajangmyeon, we ended up ordering it separately, which meant paying for four dishes total, including one that we did not order. What was most frustrating was not the mistake itself, but how it was handled. If the order was entered incorrectly or misheard, I would have expected some effort to make it right. Jajangmyeon and Tangsuyuk sound completely different, so it was surprising that the mistake happened in the first place. Being told that nothing could be done simply because the food had already been prepared was disappointing. In my experience, most restaurants would try to correct an ordering mistake, especially when it appears to have happened on their end. Unfortunately, the unwillingness to resolve the issue left a poor impression. read more

Pretty tasty and a little spicy to your liking but not too spicy that you feel like your mouth is on fire the whole time. I got the stir fried noodles which was also really good with different kind of veggies and meat of your choice. Staff is friendly and helpful. Overall had an excellent experience. read more
