Definitely an authentic Sichuan菜 experience to be had here. Flavors remind me of some of the best similar restaurants I've visited while living in China. Dry hot pots, stir fried green beans, spicy noodles, and (non-spicy) beef and Chinese broccoli and fried rice for the kids made this an all-around great choice to please any palate. Vegetarians also have a lot of options, but I would probably check to ensure it's Western veg vs. Chinese veg to make sure no dietary rules are broken! Although it can get packed, as many other reviews have mentioned, service via QR code ticket gets things moving fairly quickly, and you shouldn't need to wait more than 20 minutes or so. read more

Didn't expect much from Tian Fu but came out pretty impressed. I don't handle spice well so I was a bit apprehensive coming to a Szechuan place, but they have a wide assortment of items on the menu (including a non-spicy section) and you can customize spice level. We got the twice cooked pork as well as the spicy braised beef stew with eggplants, and both were really good, especially the twice cooked pork. The portions were huge as well. We got medium spice level, which was perfect and not that spicy for even a low spice tolerance eater like me. Service was quite friendly as well. Interior is a bit dated though. read more

Horrible mgmt. We waited over 50 mins for our table when a bigger group walked in for 10 mins and got a table in front of us. Only because they asked if they could have the table and the front desk did not check the list as the waiting list indicate we are next in line (ie no party in front of us to be seated). I confronted him and was told it was a party brought in by mgmt. Well then mgmt should treat their friends when it's off time not when there are other clients waited over 50 mins and hungry. I politely told him he seen me there for over 50 mins and he keeps on saying sorry but I am too hungry to wait for what could be another 20 mins. So we left hungry but I guess with self respect? read more

Excellent food and flavor! You need to know that they will not seat you if not all members of your party are present. read more

I'm pretty confident that any bad reviews for this place are from people who don't know what to do with themselves in a sichuan restaurant. Every single aspect of our dining experience here was a top tier experience. This was my parent's last meal in Seattle so I wanted it to be good and I took a chance on Tian Fu even though I'd never been here since I had a gut feeling it would be up their alley. Best decision ever. There was a short wait but we were comfy sitting in their waiting area in these cool asian-style seating that they had. After we ordered online, the waitstaff was so prompt to come out to confirm our order (and ask if we wanted the dessert we'd ordered now or later) and throughout the meal they were always super attentive - bringing napkins, checking how we were, the one time they came over and we asked them to refill the water jug they were so apologetic that they hadn't noticed but like I feel like it's usually the norm to need to ask before someone notices?? The serving size for every dish was generous, they all looked and smelled appetizing from the moment I laid eyes on all of them and they all tasted even better than they looked. We started with the 口水鸡(mouthwatering chicken), then 农家小炒(farmer's stir fry)，孜然羊肉(cumin lamb)，干锅肥肠(intestine dry pot)，无骨辣子鸡(boneless spicy fried chicken). These are all loose translations since I have no idea what they put in the english on their menu. My mom also got a lavender something jello dessert 凉粉. We had 5 people for all those dishes and I'd thought we wouldn't even get close to finishing it all but turns out that when something tastes that good, you become highly motivated to ear as much as you can possibly stuff into your stomach. read more

Really good and clean food/restaurant!!! A lot of their dishes are spicy.. like spicy spicy if you're not used to spice this might be like a spicy noodle challenge for you. So if you're expecting orange chicken or chow mien, this ain't the place for you ‍. Their prices seem high but their portion sizes are large!! I LOVED their mr and mrs smith, I've been trying to find a second favorite to little ting's fuqeifeipian since their change in ownership and this is tops my new fav! Tried some of their other dishes and the sweet and sour beef soup (comes with noodles) SOOO FIRE!! we took the soup back home and added our own glass noodles, enoki and meat. 2 meals in one! Who doesn't love that? #leftoversrepurposed read more

Finally got to dine in. Came early with no wait so service was great at first but they got very busy quickly. Food: Authentic, spicy, salty. Flavors were on point but felt a little too salty. Our favorite was the green beans. Braised pork belly came with a lot of pickled veggies that was too salty. Wish it came with more buns! Service: Friendly but understaffed. Try to be understanding. They gave us a pot of hot water and pot of iced water. Was able to play by phone. read more

Food tastes great, very flavorful and authentic, not some average Panda Express place. The service is good and the place is nice and large inside. Highly recommend if you want authentic Sichuan food with their local spices, but the spicy level is still manageable. Large portions. read more

The quality of the dishes has gone downhill between the two times I ate there. You can taste the bad quality ingredients they choose to put in the dishes, such as almost rotten tomatoes, low quality meat & eggs. With the price they charge, we expected way better quality food, and felt ripped off and cheated. The only good thing is this place is the service. read more

I ordered Dandan noodles. Very authentic but also hot to me. Recommend it if you can handle spicy food well. read more

My family and I came here for Chinese New Year. This is the food that I've found in Washington that's closest to the food we can get back home in China. It was so great to have an authentic taste of Chinese food on that special day. My mom and her friends come here often but this was my first time. I really love everything that this restaurant has to offer. The drinks were delicious too! The service was great and I love how when you input the items on your phone they still come over to double check everything that you've ordered. The ambience is great too and the whole time we were there it was very pleasant. I'll be happy to come back many times, and also introduce my friends to food that I think is more authentic. read more

Since I've so far only ordered delivery from Tian Fu, this review won't get into ambiance and only tangentially into service. I'm only recommending dishes that I have tried, and for the sake of space, I am not detailing all the dishes I've tried from Tian Fu. First, the food here goes beyond the standard American-Chinese menu. Many items on the menu are based on cooking from the Sichuan province in China and are likely to be spicy with both chiles and Sichuan peppercorns. For starters, I've especially enjoyed the Mr & Mrs. Smith Beef, the pork in spicy garlic sauce, and mung bean noodles. All three are delicious and spicy. Another excellent item on the menu is the dan dan noodles. The main dishes are excellent. Both the mapo tofu and the twice-cooked pork, two of the dishes that Sichuan restaurants are often judged on, are very good. The mapo tofu (which can be ordered with pork or as a vegetarian dish) is well spiced with both chiles and Sichuan peppercorns, giving a flavorful introduction of the spicy/numbing (ma/la) experience integral to many Sichuan dishes. Other dishes to try include hand torn cabbage with pork belly, chongqing chicken with chile peppers. For more adventurous eaters, there are dishes including offal (organ meats) to be tried. These include pork kidneys stir-fried with chiles and a dish with dry-cooked pork intestines. While I enjoyed both these dishes, they obviously aren't for everyone. Based on the food, this is an excellent chinese restaurant. In my opinion, this is one of the best Sichuan style restaurants in the area. read more

We came with a larger group on a Thursday night, and the staff were efficient in finding us a spot. Ordering was done via a link/QR code, and it had an extensive menu which included teas and boba. We really enjoyed their boiled fish with tofu, their crunchy string beans, and refreshing cucumber wood ear mushroom salad. Would definitely come again. read more

First time coming here and the food was excellent. When they say spicy, it's make your mouth numb, make sure you have water spicy. The non spicy dishes we had were suitable for my 1.5 year old and he loved the cashew prawns. On arrival for my kiddo, they had a high chair, plastic plate, plastic disposable utensils and small cup water with a covering that you'd use for like a boba drink. My favorite dish were the Dan Dan noodles. We also tried the bone in Chongqing chicken and it was a medium spice that also was somewhat sweet. Would order the boneless next time to make eating easier. The pork belly fried rice was also very good, lots of pork flavor. Clean inside and made reservations at 5pm (opening), by the time we left at 6:30 with our party of 5 adults and 2 children, there was a line. They are so quick to double check your order after ordering with a QR code and using your phone. Great experience overall and gave my son a lollipop because he was fussy while we left. Very kind. Already looking forward to our next meal there. read more

Definitely expect a wait here! They used to do to-go's but they got so busy they stopped taking to-go orders :( I always get the spicy dry intestine hot pot, it's crispy and juicy and chewy.. it's SO good. I come here every time for that. Also the mushroom fungus cold salad is super delicious. The spicy beef tofu stew is delicious. The Cold mung bean noodle is also a good choice! Always get white rice too! I usually never order rice but it's a must here with all the spice! I have been a regular these days haha I come here a lot.. read more

TianFu was one of the best tasting Sichuan restaurants that I've tried. We went on a Saturday for dinner and the wait was pretty long around 6, 7 PM. But once seated the food was served VERY QUICKLY. The taste was 90% authentic which could probably please most people. We ordered a ton of dishes and everything including the drinks was tasty. The staff there was very friendly and helpful, and the overall dining environment was clean. Will definitely eat there again probably during less busy hours. read more

Good food. Just remember to join waitlist early or you'll wait a long time. We love the dou-hua-yu best.

Finally made it in on a Sunday afternoon to try them. I like them. Their spicy level is just right for me. The dry pot with chicken wings is good. The potatoes in the pot soaked up all the flavors, yummy! The Peking shredded pork is my kiddos all time favorite but I think they are too sweet. I've had better ones. The mapo tofu is good, so mala, so much heat but pairs well with steamed rice. Their cold dishes were good. I will be back. read more

I seldom write review on Yelp but I feel like a need for this place. Been seeing lots of good reviews recently from other social apps and decided to give it a try. However, I was so disappointed. One star for the food, and another extra star for the service. They advertise it's an authentic Sichuan style Chinese restaurant. As a native Chinese, I have to say this place is not authentic at all. The dishes are more like Northeastern x Sichuan fusion. My first impression with these dishes are not good, given the mix of veggies. Not understand why they put onions and green peppers, and they are tasted very raw to me. The Sichuan eggplant is too sour to eat, and the pork intestines are smelly, meaning they are not cleaned enough. Also the price is not cheap. We two spend $75 for dishes shown in the picture. Give the quality of the food, I guess I will not return in any occasion in the future. read more

Arrived here around 12:30pm on a Saturday and was able to get seated without a wait, although it was either the last or second to last available table, so ymmv. Not sure if they take reservations, came here on a whim. Plenty of people were waiting in the front area, guessing for take out? Food took a bit longer to come out, approx 20 minutes longer than how you normally need to wait at a restaurant. Guessing either staff shortage or busy kitchen. The food was great though, we just randomly ordered stuff and everything was delicious. The price is more expensive than what your normally expect for a dish, but the portions were large. We had so much leftover that we were able to have a second meal at home. (Ordered like 4 dishes for 2 adults and 2 kids). If you take that into account the price is pretty reasonable. The parking lot isn't large, and it's usually near capacity when we come, but you'll usually be able to find a spot. Will definitely come back again in the future, not as often as I would want to because of two things. 1) It's in Factoria... 2) Prefer smaller portions and price adjusted accordingly to allow trying many different dishes read more

Our whole family loves this place. The wait honestly for a table is a bit much but still worth it. If you plan ahead and go around the non busy hours it's fine. Ordering to go works well, not as much calling when they're busy. read more

Food poisoning TWICE!!! Not to mention the food is incredibly spicy, too spicy to eat with enjoyment coming from someone who loves spice and carry's hot sauce in their purse. Because of the spice I could only have a little of our takeout the first night but the next day I had terrible stomach pains and diarrhea which I blamed on the spice. The next night my husband and I both ate the leftovers, but I avoided all the peppers in hopes of not wasting all of our ordered food, but lessening the spice. I also tried diluting it with more rice. A few hours after eating, my husband and I both wake up from sleep in excruciating stomach pain and diarrhea. The same food got us both sick again like clockwork. I am telling you that this place needs to be avoided at all costs. It is hazardous. Speaking from experience. Major GI pain and issues. read more

wow, I did not expect this. I don't usually write reviews on restaurants unless they are super bad. This is actually my first reviewon restaurants haha! At first I thought price was bit high! but then I took it home and opened it and it was A LOT of food.... I ordered 2 main dish , 2 sides and 2 small rice for me and my wifey, but now I am cooking more rice since there are so much food left! and I eat a lot! I have big belly! we ordered cucumber salad, Sichuan chilli wonton, and Kung pao Chicken plus hot and spicy braised fish with tofu. They were all superb good! It not like those typical American - chinese cuisine where all you can taste is sugar and soy sauce! funny enough my favorite was cucumber salad haha! going to try cucumber salad with black mushroom! oh and food is generally very spicy here! which is how Sichuan foods are. I am spice lover so I enjoyed it, but if you can't handle spice they have non-spicy food section. ok this is taking too long, it is hard to explain how good it is. so you will just have to try it! read more

The master chef is not there, the food quality is bad- fresh ingredients but just not cooked right, my pork has weir smell so I didn't touch it after a few bites, shedded potatoes was over cooked, way too soft, chicken is lack of favor. Service is attentive but food is bad- not the worst but don't wanna go back unless the master chef is There to control the quality read more

average chinese restaurant. nothing particular, hard to find parking. Service is okay too.

They're awful for service. We got there once they opened and was willing to wait to get takeout (mind you, for a family of four, not just a single order). They told me, they're too busy tonight and won't be able to do to go orders! The restaurant is EMPTY. Talk about a great first impression! read more

Food was fresh. Staff was quite attentive. Never eaten at a Sichuan place before. As scary as the chili oil on the saliva chicken was, it was pretty mild in heat and much more garlicky. Chicken was nice and tender. read more

Very bad experience. Very bad service. After bill, they didn't return my credit card back and they thought it was my fault for not asking for it. Looks like they don't think it is their responsibility to return customer's credit card back after the bill. I had to drive 1 hour to get my card back. Surprisingly, they had no apology and was very rude. Btw, their dishes are supper salty. Highly Unrecommended!!! read more

I have never had a bad meal here. Everything is to die for and the service is excellent! My favorite Chinese restaurant in WA!

They create great food from Southern part of China. Superb services by the staff. We come every week! Highly recommend to anyone who's a big fan of spicy Chinese food read more

Don't come to this store, I have ordered the meal 20minutes before I come to store and waited on the store for over 30 minutes. I have also asked two staffs to check if the food is ready. The. After almost one hour I ask the manager to see if the food is ready. Then the manager told me that they are too busy and that they did not make my dishes and said they don't take the meal anymore. The most terrible store in Seattle!! read more

I dont know what happened but my wife and I both had stomach upset from one serving of dandan noodles. not gonna go here again

Super authentic Sichuan food. So far we haven't found a another place in WA that offers the same level of authenticity.

This is the third time I ordered from them. Gotta say everything they sell taste great! Store manager is an extremely nice girl, she introduced me their best selling dishes - how they made it, what's the flavor etc. Will definitely come back and try more of their dishes. read more

I ordered take out on a weekday. Restaurant was busy but my food was ready in about 10 mins. Highly recommend the Chongqing chicken w/chili pepper (I had bone-in) - perfect level of spice and crispiness to the chicken (be prepared for a healthy amount of peppers). This dish is family-sized so I ate it over a couple days and it was just as good warmed up. Also ordered the cucumber salad (sweet) to offset the spiciness of the chicken and I'd get it again next time. read more

This place seems to be too busy for takeout. Ordered a single vegetable dish (standard menu item, no customization) on Sunday at 11:20AM. Said they were busy so it could take 25minutes. After waiting for 30+ minutes asked them to check on it. At around 35 minutes from order person comes and says they need another 10 minutes. Waiting 45 minutes for a simple one vegetable dish at non peak time seems excessive. Anyway, if they needed 45 minutes they should have said so upfront instead of saying it would be ready in 25 minutes. Strangely they also don't have a proper name plaque. read more
