The biggest disappointment was the kabob plate. It was mostly rice with very little meat, and the beef was fully well done even though we ordered it medium-rare. The fries were also soggy and tasted like they had been sitting for a while before being packed. The fattoush was fresh enough, but for around $20 it felt like a very basic salad. I had also heard that dine-in guests receive unlimited pita refills, so opening our takeout order to find just a single pita felt super disappointing . Maybe this restaurant shines more as a dine-in experience, but based on our takeout order, I left pretty disappointed. Between the portion sizes, quality, and overall value, it just didn't live up to the price.

I got the classic smash with an extra patty. There's an obvious focus on quality ingredients, and overall the burger was enjoyable. The meat itself could be seasoned a bit more, so I'd recommend going with one of their more adventurous options to add some flavor. My biggest gripe has to do with the fries. $5+ is steep for the portion they're offering. Overall: 3.75/5

You order online for delivery or swing by to pick it up (which is what we did) :: when you get there, you just let them know which kitchen you're there for, and they quickly bring out your order. We ordered a couple of truffle mushroom smash burgers and a spicy lover's smash burger, and every single one was fantastic. They delivered exactly what you want from a smash burger: juicy patties with perfectly crispy, caramelized edges, all tucked into soft, toasty brioche buns. The buns were a standout - they held everything together beautifully and soaked up the juices without getting soggy. The fries were crisp and satisfying, rounding out the meal nicely. This is definitely a spot we'll be adding to our regular rotation.

Easily one of our favorite K-BBQ spots on the Eastside. My husband and I liked combo options and…read morethe portions. Their menu may not have an all-you-can-eat option, however the serving portions and variety are more than enough. This KBBQ is located in the Redmond Town Center. Their dining space is spacious and perfect for large parties. Their menu features 3 types of combos. We were advised the small size comfortably serves 2 while the large is serves 4. We opted for the small mix combo which had the prime ribeye, beef brisket, king prime short ribs, la seasoned ribs, beef tail flap, pork belly, pork jowl, pork shoulder, and seasoned boneless short ribs. We also ordered a bottle of soju to share. The meats were beautifully presented. They also served an array of banchans including onion salad and lettuce. Service was amazing. Our server always checked in and offered to change our grill pan. Pricing was on par for the meat quality and amount that came with our order. We even ended up with a couple to-go boxes. Overall, I recommend this spot and will be returning to try out the other

Steamed eggs came out looking amazing (haven't seen it like this before) but was on the dry side; to each their own but we like it more brothy like Chicken wings were ok not great... the dish I didn't expect much from was the fried rice but it turned out to be the best dish!! Not because it's just "better than the other dishes" but it was truly amazing, it just had a great taste to it! Soup was yummy too and came with clear noodles Proportions are to the smaller size making prices a bit high but banchans were refilled quickly. Recommend because their food had its own special taste/ dishes that you will remeber it by. Was a fun place to eat and staff was friendly!

This was one of my favorite eats while my husband and I had our holiday in Seattle…read more We were driving from our friends house and my husband was really craving teriyaki and we found Grillbird online, it was close and their menu was exactly what we wanted. I ordered the chicken teriyaki with white rice and asked for a side of the spicy sauce, my husband ordered the build your own plate choosing five spice beef and chicken katsu with plenty of teriyaki sauce and spicy sauce. We had a hard time ordering on the kiosk, so the cashier took our order he was really nice and super informative. You can't eat in the restaurant so it's perfect to just order online and go but they do have seating to wait for your food. When we got back to our hotel we had a little bed picnic, can I tell you this is the best teriyaki chicken I have ever eaten. The sauce is perfect not too sweet and had hints of cherry, not sure if that's even right. I also wanted to try the spicy sauce and holy, that is spicy my mouth was on fire but in the most delicious way. I wish that we had a Grillbird in San Diego, I wonder if you can order their sauces to be mailed?

Some of the brisket was tough and hard to chew. There was also part of an onion skin in my soup. I don't think I'll be trying this joint again.

A little different than what we've had before but tasty. Might have enjoyed a little more pickled veg on them. I wish I was in this area more often. I'd love to try more things on the menu!

As you can see from my two older reviews for this place, I have always been a Xi'an noodles…read moreloyalist and still am. Since my last review the restaurant has closed and reopened, and expanded their menu, to now include more dumplings and varieties of noodles. They also now have a very handy duo of ordering kiosks, which you order at prior to sitting down. I found their kiosks easy to use, which isn't always a given. This being my first visit back in a while, I had to get the spicy cumin lamb biang biang noodles. However I had to try some dumplings, so we shared the lamb dumplings, while my dinner buddy had the spicy cumin lamb rice noodle soup (the same kind of noodles you'd get at a ten second yunnan noodle type of place). They also now have a complimentary side dish bar that has seaweed salad, peanuts, and kimci, as well as some condiment type things like scallions and minced garlic. I helped myself to some seaweed salad to nibble on while waiting for our food, and it was good although food comes out quickly enough that you don't necessarily have to rely on it unless you're really chomping at the bit. The spicy cumin lamb biang biang noodles are just as good as I remember. The biang biang noodles here are perfectly chewy, and the rest of the dish has a lovely flavor aside from just spice. They're generous with lamb and cabbage which add a lot of textural variety to the plate. The lamb dumplings were the sleeper hit of the meal, filled with juicy, tender hunks of lamb surrounded by toothsome clearly hand-rolled wrappers. Absolutely do not skip the lamb dumplings. My dinner buddy really enjoyed her rice noodle soup with spicy cumin lamb, which I think would be a great option on a cold day. Everything is pretty much self serve here, so don't expect full service -- although they did stop by to refill our water once. The food here is so good, though, and prices are so reasonable, that I truly do not care that the experience is pretty bare bones otherwise.

I had ordered the regular spice, but for me, I would've chosen the spicer one as I like spice but wanted to be safe. There was lots of really good flavors.
