    DanDan Noodle
    Sandy N.

    Came here last Thursday for my boyfriend's birthday and I surprisingly liked it despite the low amount of reviews it has on Yelp already. After doing a couple errands my boyfriend and I decided we were in the mood to eat Chinese food, so we chose Tian Fu. It was quite empty when we stepped in as the restaurant closes earlier at 3pm and then reopens at 5pm. We got the DanDan Noodles, Sichuan Chili Wontons, and the Chicken Gizzard Rice Noodle Soup. All were very good and had really good portions. The DanDan Noodles had the perfect pea-nutty and tangy taste while the Chicken Gizzard Rice Noodle Soup was spicy and very oily. I didn't mind the oiliness as it does happen to be apart of Sichuan Cuisine, it just made it harder for me to drink the broth. Otherwise, it was a good dish. The Sichuan Chili Wontons were good, but I've had better at other restaurants. The wontons seemed to be more dough than the actual filling. The environment was pretty quiet, no music playing at all. It was just us, the employees, and other customers. I would prefer for there to be a little bit of music, but it's not a big deal. The servers were friendly and attentive. I don't really have anything big to point out. After eating at Tian Fu, we did watch a movie at the AMC next door. So I would say if you are nearby the area try out Tian Fu. It's a good eat before watching a movie.

    Always pass this place and I figured today I'd give it a try. That was a very big mistake. The only positive about this place is that our server was very nice. The ground was sticky, it was silent, and very dirty. The food was particularly plain and wholly unsatisfying. The reason for my one star review though, was the legitimate rat poop on the windowsill. Absolutely disgusting, I wish I would've noticed that before I ate any of the food. Gonna go home and throw up now.

    Decent authentic Sichuan Chinese food even though the menu is rather limited. Quick service and friendly service.

    One of my OG, long-time favorite Hong Kong spots in Seattle. It's a little restaurant tucked away…read morein Chinatown, easy to miss unless you already know it's there -- but absolutely worth seeking out. Their rice bakes are incredible, the beef brisket dishes are consistently tender and flavorful, and their chow fun is hands-down my favorite in the entire city. They nail the Hong Kong-style classics every time, with that nostalgic, home-cooked feel you just don't find often anymore. Right now they're running a borscht soup special, and it tastes exactly like the versions I grew up with -- comforting, rich, and perfectly balanced. If you're craving real Hong Kong comfort food, this is it. Service is quick and friendly enough for a HK place.

    Parking in ID can be difficult on the weekends, so try to come on weekdays if possible! Help out…read moreall the restaurants in this area! Quick service, free hot tea in plastic cups (a classic), and chili oil at the table. Ask for white pepper btw! Depending on your taste, I like adding white pepper to my fried rice, chow fun, and soup. Wonton soup: the wontons are huge and filled with pork and shrimp. The soup however was kind of sour? Not sure what they added in, but the flavor of the broth was not my favorite. There's so much good wonton soup in the area! I wish this broth was better and more savory. Beef chow fun: pretty tasty and the beef was pretty tender. There was no work hei, so didn't have that distinct flavor Half chicken bone in: this was surprisingly our favorite dish! Steamed chicken with a ginger oil. The ginger made this dish and the chicken was very tender. The chicken comes cold so eat it with some rice and it's the perfect combo

    We ordered the Mixed Basket Xiao Long Bao, Lychee Sweet & Sour Pork Tenderloin, Stir fry Chow Mein…read moreNoodles with Chicken. The Chow Mein had a wonderful Wok Hei flavor and the chicken was juicy and tender. It was our favorite of the dishes. The Mixed Basket Xiao Long Bao was super fun to be able to try them all and pick your favorites. Mine was the wagyu beef, the original pork and the truffle. I was kind of sad that they didn't include soy vinegar and chili oil. I feel that those things enhance the Xiao Long Bao. The Lychee Sweet & Sour Pork Tenderloin I was most excited about. Unfortunately, it was the worst dish. The flavor was great. I love that it had lychee in it, but the breading was mush, and the pork was so hard and overcooked. It was inedible. Because of that dish and not including the condiments is my three star review.

    We came across the Seattle restaurant week menu and just had to try it. It was $50 for two people…read more We happened to go on the first day of restaurant week so luckily we made a reservation because it got a bit busier around dinner time. The wontons were good, but the chili sauce was the star. It was numbing and a little minty feeling. It was really great over the fried rice, which didn't stand out to me but was good to pair the dishes with. The crab and pork soup dumplings were sooo tasty, I would definitely get them again. The prawns we got were also great, I really enjoyed the crunchy coating and extras that came with it. I really enjoyed the space and food, I will definitely be coming back!

    Went to Asian Kitchen in north Seattle for a family dinner and had a mixed experience…read more Service was pretty slow, even though there were only a few smaller tables seated. It took a long time for the food to come out, and when our entrees finally arrived, we weren't given rice. We had to go ask for it so we didn't end up eating everything else first. It felt like they might be understaffed, which didn't help the overall experience. The appetizer platter was a bit disappointing. The honey walnut shrimp didn't really land for our table -- though I will say the crispy coating was interesting and I appreciated that they used actual walnuts. The entrees were better. The chow mein was my favorite -- great smoky wok flavor, well seasoned, and just really satisfying. The seafood clay pot was also solid, with shrimp, fish, and tofu. The beef broccoli was nicely cooked too, especially the broccoli with garlic. Overall, there are some good dishes here, but with how slow the service was, I'm not sure I'd pick this spot again.

I had been meaning to check Tai Tung out, and having a group is a great opportunity to try a variety of dishes family style. We ordered the fried chicken wings, half peking duck, beef chow fun, beef in oyster sauce (Bruce Lee's favorite), crab fried rice, and noodles with tofu (one girl had to be healthy!) The food was solid and nostalgic. It reminded me of the kind of Chinese food I would get in the 80s and 90s when we went out for Chinese food in New Jersey. We stayed, talking, until the restaurant closed. As my friends packed up and said their goodbyes, the staff noticed me looking around at the different tables. I wanted to find Bruce Lee's favorite table, which I had seen on online reviews of Tai Tung. The staff member very proudly brought us all into the next room, turned on the lights, showed us the photos on the wall, and told us about the history. We got a history and culture lesson with our meal. Best of all, our friends all congratulated me on the "great find!" of a restaurant, and isn't that the kind of validation every Yelper wants?
