When we came back to the area over the weekend, though, there was a line out the door. We ordered a handful of dishes to share, and everything came out quickly. FOOD REVIEW - Pan-Fried Pork Bun 5/5 - A must-try. - Dan Dan Noodles 4/5 - Spicy Wontons 5/5 - One of our favorites. - Pot Stickers 4/5 - XLB Pork 5/5 - Another favorite. - XLB Pork & Crab 5/5 - Equally delicious. - Pork & Shrimp Dumplings 3/5 - Sweet & Sour Cucumber 4/5 - Refreshing and really good. We were pleasantly surprised that our bill came to under $100 for everything. The portions are on the smaller side, but it was still enough to fill us up. They have multiple locations, so it's definitely worth checking out if you're craving dumplings.

The lamb noodle soup and pork noodle soup are so packed with flavors. Noodles are freshly handmade, just had my noodle soup and the old lady in the back slapping the noodles!!

My first experience with Xi'An Noodles was at the U District location and I recently was craving…read moretheir Rou Jia Mo and was excited to see one so close to me. However...their bun is pretty dry and not like the flaky/oily bun that I expected. The pork was flavorful but they definitely did not want to fill the bread because the bottom half was all bread no protein. For 7.50 it's not the *worst* but I'm still missing that taste I had in U District. Service was also pretty slowly considering they just pan fried the bread in the griddle and the meat was in a container pre made already and there were no other patrons than me. I highly recommend the U district location though!!

I try to check out new restaurants every time I visit Seattle. Some make the list from…read morerecommendations, some from Yelp reviews, and some from TikTok. This time, I checked out Chan Seattle, and baby, they left NOTHING on the table. I enjoyed my entire experience from start to finish. When I arrived, there was a sign asking guests to wait for the hostess to be seated. I stood there for about 2-3 minutes, but no one ever came to the hostess stand, so eventually I just seated myself at the bar. ‍ Not a huge deal, but definitely worth noting. Chan is located inside a hotel, and the restaurant itself is pretty spacious. The actual bar only seats about three people, but there's also open-kitchen counter seating with maybe 8-10 seats. I grabbed a seat at the bar with my book, although I mainly ended up listening to a podcast while I ate. Perfect little solo dinner vibe. One thing that made me laugh: the restroom is part of the hotel, so Chan staff actually have to give you a key to access it. Top-flight security over there! Now, THE FOOD. I started with a glass of cava from the happy hour menu and the tuna tartare, topped with avocado, radish, and sunchoke. Both were $10 each. For my meal, I ordered the roasted cauliflower from the happy hour menu for $10 and the small portion of Alaskan black cod from the protein menu. Everything was absolutely delicious, but that tuna tartare?! That was the star of the evening. Fresh, flavorful, and easily the dish I'd order again without even looking at the menu. The service was wonderful too. The bartender seemed a little stiff and rigid when I first sat down, but he eventually warmed up and I got to see his kind and friendly side. He was attentive and offered recommendations, which I always appreciate when I'm trying somewhere for the first time. The regular menu prices are definitely on the higher side, but Chan has $$$ on Yelp, so you know what you're signing up for. That said, the happy hour specials are GREAT and make it easy to try several dishes without running the bill all the way up. Between the food, service, atmosphere, and happy hour, Chan Seattle is absolutely a must-try. I'll definitely be back on a future Seattle visit, and the tuna tartare already has a spot on my repeat-order list!

I've heard about this place for awhile, and finally was in the area to try it. On a weekday…read moreevening, it was quite empty. We were greeted and sat immediately. Service was super friendly and quick. My friend and I shared the pork sliders, brussel sprouts, beef cheek ragu rice cakes, wagyu ssam, and the ginger crème brulee. Everything was so surprisingly yummy. Pork sliders were juicy, flavorful, nice fluffy bun. Good proportion of bun to filling. Brussel sprouts at first were your average well made sprouts, but when we reached the bottom of the dish where the sweet potato puree was, it changed the entire flavor profile of the dish! So good. Maybe better served in a wider bowl so we could appreciate the puree sooner haha Beef cheek ragu was super good too. Flavorful rich sauce and I loved that the rice cakes were extra thick and charred on the outside. Made for the perfect texture: lightly crunchy on the outside, soft and chewy on the inside. Wagyu ssam was great too. Not as standout as the other dishes, but solid steak pieces that were perfectly tender. I think my favorite has to be the ginger crème brûlée. The ginger flavor is light, and the hardened sugar on top tastes like crystallized ginger candy when chewed. The doenjang caramel drizzle balances it out as well. Overall, a fantastic meal. It's definitely on the pricier side, and all the dishes could use a bit less salt, but I will definitely be thinking about that crème brûlée for a long time

I usually try not to leave a negative review without giving a restaurant a fair shot across multiple menu items, so we made sure to try several dishes. We ordered what the staff told us were their absolute top dishes, and we even brought a bowl of the peanut sauce noodles home to try later. Unfortunately, everything was just kind of bland across the board. The flavor profiles simply fell flat, and even the cucumber salad fell short of expectations. Overall, we were just really disappointed. It has a lot of potential, but the food just did not deliver on flavor.

TLDR: we walked out of Seng Tong Thai wishing Yelp would let us give 0-star, that's how bad it was…read more Food was 3.5/5 at best and service was 0/5. Let's start with their atrocious service: We were a large group of 12 people. Each one of us got one entree, and we ordered one more to-go. They charged us for two additional entrees (15 entrees on receipt in total) and wouldn't admit that dishes unserved were added to our receipt. When I pointed out that we clearly only had 12 people in the group with 6 chairs on each side of the table, and we only ordered one additional entree to-go so in total we ordered obviously only 13 entrees, the staff insisted that we had had 13 people?? For a moment I was legitimately confused and looked around and counted repeatedly and thought either I hallucinated or there was a ghost??, until she said when we walked in we said 13 people in the party (untrue we arrived saying we had 11), and even the receipt wrote party of 12. I got frustrated and repeated the basic facts in higher voice as she wouldn't listen at all, and she immediately snapped at me accusing me of being disrespectful to her and she was never even the original staff who waited on us thus she should take zero blame. Sure she didn't wait on us initially, but she was also the person who gaslighted me by repeating that we had 13 people (one being a phantom??). Sure, it was a team lunch and big group thus things were chaotic, but most of it was on them providing extremely unprofessional service - they served several entrees to the wrong people, served one unordered entree to us, kept mixing up beef and pork and prawns, and served one of the entrees 30 minutes late than the other ones. Oh on top of that, when one vegetarian in our group asked for pad kee mao vegetarian version with tofu and no fish sauce, our waitress rudely interrupted him and said "yea I know what vegetarian is".......... They never apologized for the super late entree or the additional entrees charged to us. The first waitress who got into an argument with me at least offered to have the kitchen make the additional entrees for us to take to-go, yet when our original waitress came over, she flat out said nothing was wrong, and asked me to flag the entrees unserved . When I pointed them out, she denied any wrongdoing... not sure if it was a trick she played as she saw more than half of our group already left to catch meetings... Yet with all these atrocious service we had to deal with as paying customers, we had to pay the mandatory tip as a large group. Ridiculous. Or maybe that's why they didn't feel the need to give us proper service?? Oh then the food: Fried chicken wings were the worst I've had at any sit down restaurants - McDonald's quality at best. Pad Thai/Pad See Ew/Pad Kee Mao were all overly sweet, making us wonder how much sugar they put in. The late entree - a chicken curry was apparently super bad, overly cooked and sweet. Never returning and I hope everyone avoid this scammy rude business.

There were definitely quite a few people waiting for a table. We came at just the right time. The restaurant is in Capitol Hill where there is a good variety of eateries and shops. The space itself has high ceilings in an industrial-type space, but filled with red lantern decor and just enough graphics to make the place pop with liveliness. The menu is simple which I can appreciate. My daughter got the pork ribs dry mix hand-pulled noodles, but of course we share everything and taste everything together. The noodles were a good consistency of texture and flavor. We also got the chive and pork handmade dumplings. Consistency was good, but the flavor was just okay. I ordered the fried tofu bao which I wasn't sure what to expect, but it turned out to be a good choice. The fried tofu is paired with nicely seasoned chili sauce in a crispy bun. The bun was prepared well - not overcooked. The service was good and fairly quick. The bathroom was clean (I think there are two single room bathrooms.) Chill, casual vibes. Four stars.

Both of my items came out quickly. The pho was just okay to me. Not bad, but the broth was not good enough to rush back. I prefer a bit more onions and green onions and the limes were rather hard. I love Thai tea, but this one was really disappointing and weak. It just tasted like cream with a hint of tea.
