    Fish blossom
    Richa T.

    We came here for lunch the other day and the food was absolutely fantastic! Pros: + Fish Blossom - cooked to perfection. The perfect thing to halt the sweet and spicey cravings + Tons of vegan options - they do not have a special vegan menu printer, but they can make a lot of their dishes plant based. Take a look online at their vegan section + Friendly Service + Reasonable Parking Cons: NA IG: AndTheNextAdventureBegins

    We've come here twice and had a great time both times! If you're looking for a Taiwanese place with dishes similar to Din Tai Fung but more affordable, more authentic, and less pretentious, Chiho is definitely your place. Their mixed basket xiaolongbao is super fun and all the flavors were great, but you can't go wrong with the classic pork. The beef noodle soup is my personal favorite, but the Dan Dan noodles were probably a close second. Definitely a place people should check out, whatever you order I'm sure you'll have a good time

    I want to preface this my saying, I bet it's better when you dine in. I ordered delivery and was a little disappointed by the dumplings coming in a paper container instead of plastic, like the fried rice I ordered. There was a loss of juice in the soup dumplings, flavor was still really good. The fried rice was really good as well. I was kinda sad I didn't receive any sauces with my order. No soy sauce, so chili oil. My overall delivery experience would have been better if the dumplings came in a better container. I would have appreciated the rice in the paper and the dumplings in plastic or a aluminum take out container and some sauces, because I had none at the place I had them delivered to.

    Great ambiance for this restaurant! Inside is very nicely decorated. It's also very clean and organized and has nice lighting. It would be a nice place for a date or a celebration. Unfortunately, the food was pretty average to me. We had their chow mein and fried rice and both were only okay. To be honest, their fried rice was one of my least favorite Chinese fried rice I tried in Seattle. The amount of protein was very small too. Maybe just 2 oz of meat? The fried rice was decently salty and overcooked/moist. I liked the chow mein more. It was tasty and sweet and the prawns were soft and fresh. The service was good. The server answered any questions we had and the food didn't take long to make.

    More modernized Chinese food with American Chinese, Cantonese, and some Sichuanese dishes! I came here with a friend and they had a pretty good happy hour! We got their dandan noodles (happy hour), mala soup dumplings (happy hour), mixed basket soup dumplings, honey walnut shrimp, and honey roast duck. My favorite was absolutely the mala soup dumplings it totally slapped! Everything tasted really good so no complaints!

    Inside

    There's so many restaurants in Belltown so I'm happy when I get to try a new one out. Came here with a friend and loved the inside. The coloration and decorations made for a good vibe. We were seated immediately. I decided to go with a Prawn Chow Mein dish. I was surprised by the large portion! The noodle part of the dish was great and very tasty. The prawns themselves were cooked well but were slightly lacking in flavor. Our server was quick and helpful and was knowledgeable in answering our questions. If you're in the area, it's worth checking out this place.

    Came here as a group of 5, and we all thought it was pretty delicious. Our favourite, unanimously, was the crab soup dumplings. Staff were friendly too. Also we really liked the mapo tofu.

    Atmosphere: a really pretty decorated little spot in downtown Seattle. Service: fast and friendly service Food: our group wanted to try just throw everything on the menu so we try to get a large variety of everything. The only thing that was out was the roasted duck and that was kind of disappointing, but we were able to get just about everything else we wanted. We really liked all the stirfry and the fish dish and all the buns. They even had vegetarian options, though I would not recommend the vegetarian options if I was not a vegetarian. The noodle dishes were all really yummy as well. I think the highlight was the fried fish dish.

    Rachel S.

    For me the food was just okay. We ordered the Black Truffle Wagyu Fried Rice, Mixed Basket Xiao Long Bao(7), Spicy wagyu beef noodle soup & Half Hong Kong Style Honey Roast Duck. I did like the Black Truffle Wagyu Fried Rice & Spicy wagyu beef noodle soup. Service was fast, ambience feels inviting and fun.

    ALTERNATIVE DTF (4 stars) - FOOD: Very good Chinese food - PRICES: Fair - SERVICE: ok but felt kind of rushed - AMBIANCE: Inside was a bit outdated and tacky for a Belltown restaurant I haven't hung out in Belltown in a long time but I always like eating in the area. When you want soup dumplings but you don't want to go to DTF, you can come here for the alternative. Their menu has more offerings and their soup dumplings pretty good. :: JUDGE THOSE DUMPLINGS :: Handmade dumplings! We all know any xlb will be compared to DTF dumplings. Soupiness - very soupy. Texture - close enough, thin, no hard top, and easy to puncture. Doe it have the 18 folds, probably not but good enough. Flavor - flavorful. PORK XLB - yum. yes, order. Tasted like typical XLB, not the best but good enough. WAGYU BEEF SOUP XLB - good. not sure what's so special. Reminded me of fine ground beef with some pieces of tendon or fat from time to time (that I was not a fan of). :: NOODZ :: Stir fry Chow Mein Noodles with Prawns - greasy but not overly greasy. good flavor. The prawns were de-pooped and cooked well. Flavor was tasty, I couldn't stop eating the noodles even when full. Until the next review....

    I have frequented Chiho a couple of times but this is by far the best visit. Kaka our server was amazing with recommendations and the service. Right at open they were extremely busy so you know this place is good! They have everything you could want on a menu so there is something for everyone. What we got and the combination was so good, no notes. Get this exact order Crab rangoons (with real crab!!) Mixed basket of dumplings Roasted duck Typhoon friend prawns (crunchy garlic + onion heaven) Dan Dan noodles Green beans 100% will be back, portion sizes were amazing and made great leftovers!

    Stopped by for a late lunch on rainy Seattle day and it just hit the spot.They have many vegan options and it was all very yum.not too expensive either and we had lots of leftovers. Service was quick and friendly and ambience is cozy for a lunch or even dinner. I will return to try the vegan soup dumplings next time. Would highly recommend

    Does this restaurant have a parking lot?

    No, just street parking but on 3rd Av, you have several public parking lots.

    Are dogs really allowed here? It's tagged that way, but it also says no outdoor seating and it's not clear from the pictures either.

    No they are not

    This place is a true Seattle gem. After sampling the heavy hitters, I'm comfortable saying Dim Sum…read moreKing has the best dim sum around without going to Vancouver. Not only that, but it's also the most affordable with a price-per-piece around $1.35 for most items. The Siu Mai, BBQ Pork Bun, Custard Bun, and Shrimp Cheung Fun are personal standouts. With that said, this is not your typical dim sum restaurant. You'll find no leisurely rotating tables or endless pots of tea. Instead it operates more like a bakery, optimized for takeout. This seems to be a point of disconnect among other reviews here. Service is focused on efficiency, but you can take as long as you need to decide what you want by using the paper ordering sheet and referencing pictures on the wall. There are tables you can usually snag to dine in with, but expect everything to be boxed regardless. Go in understanding this, and you'll have an excellent time. overall 5+/5

Like the Food Walk itself, this place gets very crowded during peak lunch hours when they're open; every seat was taken and everyone else - myself included - got our goodies for takeout. You pay depending on how much you get; for example, one piece of siu mai is $1.30 each as of this writing. All other food items follow in a similar suit. We got the following: - Egg tart: my favorites though they have cookie crusts. I do prefer flaky crusts but the egg yolk has the right amount of sweet to balance the crust. - Siu mai: fresh and piping hot. Meat was also fresh and didn't have a weird aftertaste. - Green onion bun: each one is pretty big, and there's just enough green onions on them to distinguish between similar buns like the baked BBQ pork bun. - Sponge cake: didn't eat this myself but parents thought this was all right though a little too set. - Baked BBQ pork bun: my dad's favorite. BBQ pork is sweet and complements the bun itself. - Meat bun turnover (Shanghai pan-fried buns): I always like getting these in places like Din Tai Fung and Dough Zone. The ones here are even better, with a ton of filling in each bun and a nice crisp from the pan fry. A classic staple of Chinatown that serves awesome dim sum that edges out the competition pretty well considering dining in has gotten a lot more expensive lately! I see myself coming back a lot more, beyond the number of times I've gone here since high school, of course.

I had my all time favorite dish at a Hong Kong café cuisine, gon caau ngau ho (乾炒牛河), aka beef chow fun, along with a childhood favorite drink, iced Horlicks. I liked how everything moved at a quick pace here and yet the staff were still friendly. The best part was that no one stopped by to ask how the food was while your mouth was full, because they already knew the food was good. The beef chow fun was just as good as the ones back home. It was savory and full of wok hei (iykyk). The bean sprouts were added at just the right time, so they were still a slightly crunchy. The sliced beef was tender too. If you like adding extra spice, be sure to try the crunchy chili sauce on the table. It was awesome, fragrant, spicy, and full of flavor. Just be careful not to choke on it, I did, and it wasn't fun. I hadn't had Horlicks in twenty years, and the first sip brought back so many memories. Be sure to stir it well and maybe wait until the ice melts a little, otherwise it may be slightly too sweet.

For food, we ended up getting the peking duck, mongolian beef, and wonton soup. The duck was just okay, we both thought the flavor was a little off but the meat quality was still good and we loved how it tasted with the buns and all the works! The mongolian beef actually surprised me because it was super soft and the flavor was a perfect balance between sweet and savory! The wonton soup was my personal favorite; it was warm and delicious and the wontons were so juicy! We added in some of their housemade chili oil and it was perfect! This is a clearly established restaurant and I would definitely recommend it as a late-night outing!
