I love their spicy shrimp and pork wontons! the one thing that has been really disappointing is that they took the stir fried rice cakes odid their menu. It was the one thing I would go there for as I can't find that easily at other places. The other disappointment is that they switched their stir fry noodle to a different type of noodle which is not as good. But overall the flavors are still great and service is amazing. The one in Bellevue is absolutely beautiful.

The food arrived fresh and well-presented, and everything we ordered was flavorful. The highlight of the meal was definitely the chicken wontons - they were perfectly cooked, packed with delicious filling, and full of flavor. They were easily my favorite dish and something I would come back for again. The overall atmosphere was clean, comfortable, and great for a casual meal with friends or family. Prices felt reasonable for the quality and portion sizes. If you're looking for a place with tasty food and friendly service, this is definitely worth a visit. I highly recommend stopping by and making sure to order the chicken wontons - you won't regret it!

When I was running my own restaurant, I often told my team: if a place has exceptional service but…read moremediocre food, it will still get good reviews; if the food is extraordinary but the service is terrible, it will inevitably get bad reviews. However, when both service and food exceed expectations, a restaurant becomes an industry benchmark. Service: The service here was truly, exceptionally outstanding. A friend brought me here today--he had only been to this restaurant once before--yet every single staff member remembered him, and even remembered what he had ordered last time! They were genuinely thrilled to see him return. The pacing of the dishes and the check-ins during the meal were both spot-on. Ambiance: A classic Cantonese restaurant atmosphere--full of character, dignified, and rich with Chinese design elements. The seating is comfortable, the restaurant is impeccably clean, and the management is clearly top-notch. Food: Great value for money, with very reasonable pricing. The fried rice was loaded with rich ingredients and seasoned to absolute perfection. The seafood tofu was mild in flavor and made with fresh ingredients--perfect for children. The green beans were fresh and had just the right level of spice. As one of China's Eight Great Culinary Traditions, Cantonese cuisine is defined by its freshness: fresh ingredients, vibrant flavors, and fresh execution. Preparing Cantonese food is far more trouble than people realize; because of the complex preparation, strict standards for ingredients, and a low yield rate, true quality is hard to achieve. Since this restaurant is run entirely by a team of Cantonese chefs, I believe it is ultimately their passion that drives their success.

Royal Kitchen is a decent place to go if you're craving dim sum in the Bellevue area. I went with…read moremy family around 3pm and it was not busy on a Thursday. We ordered shrimp rice roll, har gow, football, shrimp with eggplant, shrimp with bell pepper, spare rib, Xiao long bao, sautéed pea tips, chicken feet, meatballs, shrimp and chive dumplings, tripe, and mango pudding. I really liked the filling in the football, which contained ground pork and mushrooms, not so much the flour for the outer layer. I also liked the tripe, pea tips, and chicken feet. They were delectable. Other than that, it seemed a bit plain. I didn't really like the chili oil they used, it was more like a sambal. I'm glad we ended with the mango pudding for dessert. The mold for it was so cute. Hopefully next time I come here they change up the chili used.

They didn't even put me back on the top of the list, they just put me back as someone who just arrived. Staff didn't apologize or anything which is why I am giving 3 stars for this location. Also parking can be bad since parking lot here is full all the time. Food is great though. I usually get sichuan xiao long bao, truffle xiao long bao. I tried wagyu xiao long bao this time which was just okay for the price you are paying. I would prob skip next time. My go to is dan dan noodles and egg fried rice and chili wonton. I tried their spring beans and they were pretty decent! I would say all the food i've tried so far is pretty good, and I would like to try different dishes.

In defiance of my previous review, I've actually visited Xiao Chi Jie twice more, only going for my…read morefavorite dish, Sheng Jian Bao. The store is a little different now that Rooster & Rice has taken over some of the kitchen. In the ordering area, the left two kiosks are solely for Rooster & Rice, while the right three kiosks are for Xiao Chi Jie and Bento Bliss. The menu is drastically shortened, with all the Mila products and the Jianbing being removed. Honestly not a bad removal given how mediocre I thought they were. And surprisingly, pricing ($12.99) for the 5pc Sheng Jian Bao hasn't increased in the almost 2 years since my first visit. Their method of cook is traditional, bunching a large number of bao together with oil and water in an oversized and specialized pan just for this dish (with the required cover for steaming, of course). The quality remains the exact same as my first visit - good amount of fatty interior rendered aspic, strong umami and aromatic flavoring on the pork meatball filling, and a nice thin doughy skin. It's a very solid SJB, and probably the best that can be found in the Seattle metro.

Understandable but came the following week and more than half the items were unavailable. The food tastes the same but was barely warm whereas before it was hot and steaming. At the time we came, they did not have hot sauce and they did not provide sauce for the dumplings until we requested it. Service was okay. Given all the other choices in Bellevue and the price I would not recommend this place. If you want limited choices with barely warm food then this would be your spot.

We recently dined here with a party of 8, and it was a wonderful experience overall. What impressed…read moreus right away was that we called and made a reservation only 15 minutes before arriving on a Saturday, and the restaurant was still able to accommodate us in a private dining room. That made the evening feel extra special and comfortable for our group. We ordered a variety of dishes, and our favorites were definitely the Mongolian Beef, Shrimp Dumplings, Hot Seafood Noodle Soup, and Kung Pao Prawns- all were flavorful, well-prepared, and highly recommended. The Garlic Crispy Chicken and Singapore Noodles were also good. The only dish that didn't stand out to us was the Chicken Fried Rice, which was our least favorite of the meal. The service was excellent from start to finish. A special shoutout to the host, who was incredibly kind, helpful, and attentive throughout our visit. Parking was convenient as well, with a nearby garage offering the first 3 hours free. My only reason for not giving 5 stars is that the pricing felt a bit on the higher side, especially considering the portion sizes seemed smaller compared to other Chinese restaurants we've visited. Overall, a great dining experience with delicious food, outstanding hospitality, and excellent accommodation for large groups.

Food was good and came out on time. What we got: 2 glass of sangria Spicy crispy fish fillet (4/5) Good flavor nice and crispy. Not spicy enough tho. Combination chow mein (3.5/5) Good flavor; nothing crazy but it was good. Eggplant and green bean (3.5/5) Good flavor as well; but again; nothing crazy about it. They serve good foods; but it is in the middle of Belleveu so you will be paying that "Belleveu" price. Our bill were around $140 for the two of us. Which i think you can get the same kind of foods at other chinese restaurant for probably a bit more than half the price Would i recommend it? If you willing to pay that much; sure; their foods are good and we like it and hospitality was good I just dont think the price point is very balanced. Maybe they use better quality ingredients? I dont know; just couldnt tell since the dishes we order tasted just like something we could get at other chinese restaurants.

Okay, this is not your grandfather's Baron's. Something has changed. Every year or so my family…read moredrives over to Bellevue for their Beijing Duck. In the past we would order other dishes just for a little variety but not because they were delicious. That's no longer true. The menu is expanded. There's lots of choices besides the duck that are worth ordering. Well, worth is another question. Nothing is inexpensive. The cost of the duck, plus tax and tip might be enough for a meal at another restaurant! I lived in Beijing for most of the 1980s. During this time foreigners like me were still considered honored guests so I often was invited to eat 北京烤鸭。Roast duck. For most Chinese, eating this is a rare treat for special occasions. Baron's duck is as good as any I have eaten in Beijing. Unfortunately until yesterday it was the only good dish there. They must have a new chef. In addition to duck, we had 干炒牛河、wagu beef, sea bass and a shrimp dish. All excellent. The place was very busy. Lovely ambience, a bit different from many other Chinese restaurants, which appear to want to express that they want to put their money into the food, not the decor. Actually I believe the owner is not Chinese and most of the servers weren't either. Speaking of service, it was just okay. For the price you could expect more. It may be not for another year or two, but we'll be back.
