    Shrimp fried rice
    Eilene C.

    Located in a centralized food court at the airport, we were able to purchase Chinese food before our flight. We got our food quickly and was able to sit down and enjoy our meals. However, we were not accustomed to the flavors they used in their dishes and were a little disappointed that their fire chicken wasn't as spicy and the fried rice had red bell peppers. Overall, it was conveniently located and near other restaurants/cafes.

    Chicken pad Thai

    Good pad Thai. Service was pretty quick for how busy it was. They have other Asian options too.

    Those noodles are all stuck together. The chicken is tender, maybe too tender.  The sauce was good

    Pei Wei is OK. The food is pretty good but it's not like eating at a full-blown restaurant. aching get busy at lunch and dinner so be prepared for a little bit of a wait as for the dining room. There's nothing special but it's clean and the air conditioner works really well if you have some cash and want a little fusion American Chinese this might fill your bill

    Decided to try out this place while waiting for my flight. The staff is very busy but they work hard to tend to you. I appreciate that. I ordered the shrimp pad Thai. It came out nice and hot. I waited a few minutes to eat it but then I noticed it was very oily. It seeped through the cardboard container, leaked thru the bag and onto the counter! Lol I had to grab some napkins because I didn't want to leave an oily mess in the counter. The noodles were short and in pieces but the shrimp was good. As for flavor was lacking in spices and it was hard to eat with all the mess.

    I will say how shocked I was to find this rice was pretty decent. It come out piping hot and fresh. Bonus is it doesn't have peas!!!! Their spring rolls are mini so perfect bite size. If you are in the mood for Chinese stop by...you might be actactually surprised.

    Teriyaki Chicken and Coconut Curry Chicken - looks same but tastes different.  Not bad! 4 stars.

    I was surprised by the quality of the food at Pei Wei, the main Asian food stand at Seatac Airport's main food court. Unlike Panda Express, Pei Wei has chefs fire up the wok and make food to order. They have both Chinese and Thai-inspired rice and noodle plates available. They also go easy on the sauce, which is how I like it. Both Teriyaki Chicken and Thai Coconut Curry Chicken dishes were good. The chicken was surprisingly moist despite being white meat. Only ding is that their kiosk ordering system can be a bit buggy and slow. Press too hard and you'll be ordering for an army.

    While waiting for my flight, I grabbed lunch at Pei Wei. I ordered some egg rolls and shrimp pad thai. The egg rolls were piping hot, crispy, and very yummy. The pad thai had a good amount of large shrimp and the dish was delish! I enjoyed my meal very much and thought the portions were great for the price. My order was freshly made and the wait wasn't too long. The lady taking my order was sweet. If you want good food fast, stop by Pei Wei!

    Firecracker Chicken
    Karl A.

    I ordered the flaming chicken. The food came out fairly quick. The sauce is thick on it and the chicken has an odd texture. I would hardly fall this flaming chicken either. It has all the heat of ketchup. The container was mostly full of undercooked rice. I'd give it a solid 'meh'. I know it's airport food, but I would try and find another option at SeaTac for your dining. Decent service, blah food.

    Overpriced and food was so so. The noodle option was just plain noodle, not even chow mien and no option of half rice half noodle so you'll have to buy extra. Had to wait a few minutes for food to come out. This is in the airport food court so it's nice and bright but tables are kinda hard to find. We got lucky though. The food court dining area was clean.

    Just learned Pei Wei actually cook food on the spot (unlike Panda Express and the likes). The food was served fast and taste above average for a fast food Chinese chain. We ordered the pad Thai with chicken and a shrimp/beef chow mein. I can taste the entrees are less oily and a bit more watery. I guess this is good for health but still one entree sets you back 1200 calories

    Bland, no lime, need siracha or it's rubbish

    I had been to Communion before and was excited to finally take my husband. The menu had changed up…read morea little since my last time but everything was still really good so no complaints there. It is a small spot (sorta) so you kind of get in where you fit in. We ended up at the bar and honestly it worked out perfectly. Our bartender was friendly, engaging and just made us feel right at home. Another staff member came through at some point and was equally as kind. The service all around was great. Now let me talk about the food because that cabbage had no business being that good. I know that sounds random but it was my favorite thing and I did not see that coming. The mac and cheese was delicious, the fried chicken was really good, and my husband was all about the rice and black eyed peas (surprisingly). I also ordered a non alcoholic drink and even though I cannot remember the name it was really good too. The only minor thing was that one of the items, I think it was the hush puppies or cornbread, came out a little lukewarm. They mentioned it can be hard to keep that particular item hot, and flavor wise it was YUM so it was not a dealbreaker. Everything else comes out fresh as it's cooked so just know timing can vary by dish. It did get crowded toward the end and they politely let us know people were waiting outside. They handled it with so much grace it did not feel uncomfortable at all. I will definitely be back. Already curious about what will be on the menu next time.

    This was hands down my favorite meal of my weekend trip. I found this spot through TikTok, and it…read morecame highly recommended. We didn't have a reservation, but after about a 10-minute wait, we were lucky enough to snag two seats at the bar. From the moment we walked in, the vibe felt warm, welcoming, and genuinely hospitable. The seating seems intentionally designed to bring people together, and you could see it in the mix of large groups, couples, and even solo diners. Like the name, it had a "communal" energy that made the space feel alive and intimate. The hostess, bartenders, and our waitress were all phenomenal. They were attentive and easy to talk to. Also, the playlist was good. It really added to the overall experience. We started with the sweet potato hoe cakes, and they were absolutely amazing. I loved the texture. They were soft, pillowy, and balanced. They weren't too sweet, even with the honey butter. I wish I'd ordered more to go because I haven't stopped thinking about them. I'll have to try recreating them at home. For my entree, I ordered the stuffed trout, and this is where things really took off. It's a whole fried trout stuffed with a seafood dressing (shrimp, catfish and oysters), and it immediately caught my eye on the menu. I'm not used to eating whole fish, and I don't think I'd even had trout before, but this dish was mouthwateringly good. The fish was crispy, hot, and perfectly seasoned. The béarnaise sauce really set it off. There were so many layers of flavor and texture, and everything just worked together perfectly. On top of that, the presentation was stunning. I posted it on my Instagram story and immediately had people asking where my food was as from. This meal was very memorable. I have zero notes. The ambiance, food, music, and service were all top-tier. Side note: There is a 5% "communal" surcharge added to every bill. The money is used to support staff benefits, the support staff, and the line cooks. This is separate from the gratuity. This surcharge is clearly explained on the menu, and I really love and appreciate the transparency and that they care about the employees. But yeah. Super good. We love a good meal and we damn near left there skipping.

It also only had 2 kinds of Vietnamese cold cut meats, which I didn't mind, but it needed more in there. There's a super thin layer of mayo and pate I think. Bread was very fresh! I give 3/5 Kimchi fried rice had good kimchi flavor. Portion size was large. 10 piece fried chicken (wings) was good. The skin was way fattier than I would've liked and it could've been fried longer to help melt some of the fat out and make it crunchier. It was super hot, fresh, and juicy though. Radish was free. It came with sauce but only on the side. Personally, I would want to try other korean fried chicken places to compare before coming back here again Waffle fries come with either ranch or ketchup. Large portion sizes! For all we ordered, it was around $55. Great price for the portions and variety imo. Service was outstanding as I mentioned. One older woman worker felt like she was my auntie. She refilled our water and checked in on us despite this being a place where you go up to order.
