I'll get straight to the point: This place is lamb heaven…read more One of the best and most unique lamb ribs I've ever had. A thin crisp crust, falling off the bone tender lamb with a nice amount of fat. It's served with a salty spicy dry rub that adds more texture with each bite. The raw sliced onions, not something you'll see with western cuisine, but a staple served with mughlai kebabs in other parts of the world provide sweetness and additional crunch. The lamb buns were great. Unlike most buns or patties or quiche which usually have ground lamb, these had tiny cubes, along with potatoes. Just needed some hot sauce to unlock flavors for me. The lamb soup with noodles was light and super flavorful. Great for a winter afternoon. Service was nice. The place is inside the same mall which houses Ranch Market and is clean with nice comfy seating. Will I return: Definitely

Ooohh, now THIS is a slightly rare treat. Cuisine specifically from Xinjiang province in…read morenorthwestern China. Specializing in lamb, xinjiang naan, and more with a healthy amount of, of course, cumin. Lamb skewers - Glorious meaty flavor, with that very slightly gamey lamb taste and a lot of seasoning. Lamb stir fry - Delicious. I particularly love the lamb chunks that have a bit of fat or tendon on them. I also love the potato in this. Hand pulled wide noodles - These are on-point, especially after the sad and soft ones at Dough Zone. So much texture and the amount of umami they soak up from the juices of the stir fry is brain melting. Naan - They're definitely good, but these are.....sooooooooo dense and filling. As an analogy, if bread -- bagel, then Indian curry naan -- this naan. Honestly, these aren't my favorite, but I can't fault the taste or quality at all. Soup - Oh yeah, this was also perfect with the bread. At a glance, it reminds me a bit of pho broth, but you'll forget once the lamb flavor in it hits like a truck.

A party of 2 or more is recommended for the kbbq because of the amount of meat that is served. They do have entree items that are perfect for one person. We tried the premium butcher feast option and it gave us some flexibility in what kinds of meat we wanted. My personal favorites is the wagyu steak and the zabuton. Super tender and soft. Some of the other meats I thought were a bit too chewy or fatty. The feast is definitely more than enough for two people. It includes side dishes, salad, tofu soup and steamed egg. The interior is very spacious, clean and modern. They did an impressive job with the menu as everything looks appetizing. I'd like to come back to try the entree dishes. Overall, the presentation looks aesthetically pleasing. It is a little more expensive compared to other kbbq spots but you are definitely paying for the quality.

Talk about attention to detail! The drinks (Imperial Coconut and First Bloom) were gorgeous and tasty. As for the food, the Salt & Pepper Tofu, Calamari, and Crispy Garlic Chicken were all hits. The portions are huge, so you definitely get your money's worth. The highlight was Thien offering a complimentary birthday treat at the end of the meal. It really made my day! The vibe is clean and aesthetically pleasing, and the service is top-notch. Yes, there's a 4% card surcharge, but for an experience this good, I didn't mind at all. We'll definitely be back!

We got a table almost immediately, as we did get there relatively early around 11:30 AM. The place was already somewhat busy, but there were a number of available tables.

All in all it was a great lunch, with a nice active lunch scene and busy vibe. Thank you

We've been wanting to try this spot for a while every time we drive by, it's packed, which usually…read moresays a lot. Finally made it in, and overall, it was a mixed experience. Started off strong with the uni shot, which was really good, and the sashimi fresh, clean, and exactly what you want from a sushi spot. We also ordered the mushroom and pumpkin salad with spinach, which tasted great, but at $20, it felt a bit overpriced for what it was. The rolls, unfortunately, didn't live up to how they looked. Presentation was definitely there, but the flavor just didn't hit. On top of that, they were falling apart pretty easily when picked up with chopsticks, which made them a little frustrating to eat. Service was solid overall staff was attentive despite how busy it was but they did miss our hamachi kama, which was a bit of a letdown. A couple things to note: this place is cash only, and it gets very busy, so expect a bit of a wait. That said, the vibe is nice, and the design of the space is something I actually liked. Would I come back? Probably for sashimi and appetizers but I might skip the rolls next time.

This is the kind of place where birthdays, anniversaries, graduations, and "we just needed a really good night out" dinners turn into core memories. The atmosphere walks the perfect line between elevated and welcoming -- refined without ever feeling stuffy. And listen carefully: you MUST order the duck. The Forbidden Roast Duck is the showstopper. Crispy skin, rich flavor, beautifully presented, and honestly one of those dishes people keep talking about days later. It's not just good "for Mercer Island." It's genuinely destination-worthy dining. Every dish we've had here feels intentional, creative, and balanced without trying too hard. The kind of restaurant where you order "for the table" and suddenly everyone is fighting over the last bite. Mercer Island is lucky to have a place like this. Families celebrating life's big moments -- or just wanting an incredible dinner together -- should absolutely put this spot on the list.

The lollipop chicken was nothing like the menu's photo. The serving was excessive for an appetizer. The garlic was all concentrated on top and overly potent, while the breading had no flavor. The eggplant was a little too sweet and quite bland. Where's the spice? The Kho beef was served with an excess of baguette. Half the baguette would have been enough. The dish is very fatty and difficult to finish. Three dishes, three misses. Service was alright. Staff is polished and attentive. The room was surprisingly noisy despite the restaurant having a lot of empty tables.

I really enjoyed how customizable everything was, from the fresh ingredients to the different noodle choices, it made the experience fun and personal. The broth was the highlight for me: rich, flavorful, and comforting without being overly heavy. We got #1 which is classic herbal it's not that spicy as they say more on the light mild spicy. However, #6 has no spice at all, so it's perfect for the kids. We got the chicken broth for them with their favorite udon noodles (there's so many types of noodles.) We paid around $45 with two bowls, it honestly fed my family of 4 and my daughter can eat, eat! :P You can really taste the quality in the food. Service was also smooth and efficient despite how busy it was, and the staff kept things moving quickly. Overall, one of the best malatang spots I've been to so far. Great food, great ambience, and perfect for anyone who loves building their own bowl exactly how they want it. Ps. If you do a review here or Google they will give you a cute magnet or keychain in which my daughter got so she's very happy with her tiny noodle magnet.
