I love fried chicken. I really do. In fact, fried chicken would be my last meal on earth if I had to choose. And if I had a choice, I would choose So Tasty or Jollibee's. I went here with this guy I had a crush on, and just sharing delicious fried chicken was so romantic. Great date spot. Amazing prompt service, easy ordering, and just memorable food. In the good way. The chicken was perfectly crispy, there wasn't even an overpowering oil aftertaste, the chicken was seasoned so well that I didn't even need sauce (but would love gravy with this) and the sides were refreshing. We got the green beans, cabbage, mango sago, and then the portuguese tart was perfectly flakey, sweet, and balanced. Superb quality all around. Good ambiance, clean area, nice staff, and happy belly. read more

I always love visiting So Tasty! They have the best fried chicken and egg tarts on the Eastside. Their soups are always so comforting. There're so many other Chinese styled dishes to choose from the menu. The staff are friendly and helpful. The restaurant has a nice open space with lots of tables. read more

This spot is quickly becoming my favorite place.The fried chicken is seriously the best and I am never let down with the juiciness and crispiness. I won't ever go to another fried chicken spot except here. I love their waffle fries too. Sometimes I get their soup pot and it is so filling and delicious. My only wish is that the noodles not be cooked all the way- but that's just a preference of mine. But everything else, from the ingredients and flavor of the soup - it's fantastic. Service is always so quick and the staff is always friendly. If you have a big group, this is a great place to come to. Plenty of seating! read more

I love super close to this. It's not so tasty. It's below average. Nice people. Price is ok but I was not impressed. Prob won't be back

Looks like it's been over 2 years and revisited last night when my mom was craving fried chicken! Hot Pot + Fried Chicken = equally THE BEST of both worlds in my opinion! Crispy juicy, not salty, warm fried chicken paired with hot pot that has your protein choice, Napa cabbage, corn, bean curd, meatballs, a slice of spam, fish cakes...what more could you want?! From 2 years ago, I remember their hot pot was bigger back then but honestly, I love this place so much, not a biggie at all! Small-medium area space, it's very popular so try to come when it's not peak lunch or dinner time! Please give it a try if you haven't already! read more

This might have been my biggest surprise of the year! This seemingly simple shop near Crossroads offers a somewhat confusing mixed menu of bubble teas, fried chicken and a few other Asian dishes like garlic pork belly. Sp it was actually hard to tell what this restaurant really was. Based on real estate space in the menu it seems to be primarily a bubble tea shop followed by fried chicken place. But I gotta tell you, we tried the fried chicken and it was fantastic!! Super crispy crust with a juicy inside. The pieces were huge, and to my preference they served just the best parts, legs, thoughts and wings. No dry chicken breasts here! We ordered the spicy and it really was, and I want to describe it as a more Asian spicy than your KFC type of spice. Still the spice was incorporated into the crust versus being a sauce, which I loved! If you have a craving for fried chicken, I would highly recommend giving this small restaurant a try! read more

We decided to stop by after a shopping trip in Bellevue and we were impressed! The restaurant is very clear and staff were kind. My mom ans I ordered a spread of items as we're samplers and everything we had was really good! My personal favorite was their So Tasty Pot, Garlic Pork Belly, and Spicy Mala Chicken. My mom really liked the fried chicken and the meat was very flavorful. Overall, we were impressed by everything and recommend you give it a try if you're in the area! EDIT: Their egg tart are a must get. We'll be back! read more

This place has been on my list for a long time so I decided to come here for lunch. This restaurant is tucked on the side of a plaza filled with various Asian businesses. There were plenty of parking around the complex, very close by to Crossroads. As my partner and I entered the restaurant, we were seated immediately. We had to scan the QR code to order our foods, which is a norm nowadays. This place is well known for their fried chicken so we immediately knew what to order. We both ordered the fried chicken combo and one of their lunch specials, the curry fried chicken rice bowl. We also wanted to try their egg tarts for desserts. Overall, the fried chicken came out very crispy and juicy with some spicy kick. The best part was the crispy skin which made it taste so much better. I really like the waffle fries that came with the combo since it wasn't soggy at all. The curry chicken rice was good with the usual potatoes and carrots and two broccoli florets for veggie consumption. The fried chicken was surprisingly crispy and not soggy. It was a very comforting meal to enjoy especially when I was craving for curry. The egg tarts were delicious as well especially when the crust is flaky with the oozing warmth of the egg custard. It is probably the best egg tart I've had around Seattle. I will for sure be back again to try their other dishes. read more

The soups and hot pots here are a definite must to warm you up on a chilly day. I really like their So Tasty mala soup pot that comes with your choices of four noodle and we opt for the rice noodles. Each bowl comes loaded with meatballs, a slice of spam, corn, bean curd, fried tofu, potatos, mushrooms and napa cabbage. You can also lay about $5 for other proteins but the bowl alone is filling enough for us. Our other favorite is the kim chi soup base hot pot. Don't forget the fried chicken is a must have and the pineapple fried rice is great too! read more

We ordered golden fried buns for an appetizer and the 2 thigh combo meal, original and spicy flavor, waffle fries, creme brûlée Oreo milk tea and buttermilk dipping sauce. For dessert we ordered the Portuguese tarts. (The best!) It was all delicious! The golden fried buns came in a pack of 6 with sweetened condensed milk to drizzle over the top. They are bite size portions, a perfect appetizer. The chicken was so crispy and juicy! The spice was just enough heat to hit the back of the throat. The buttermilk dipping sauce wasn't needed because the chicken was so good by itself. The waffle fries were seasoned perfectly and crispy. The creme brûlée Oreo milk tea ordered 50% sugar, light ice a great drink choice to accompany my meal. when I want fried chicken this is what I want! The best thing, they make it when you order it's not sitting around under a heat lamp. Next time im going to try one of the hot pots.! read more

Came in here for dinner and noticed there were a lot of door dash / Uber eat etc. For to go orders. They don't have physical menus, so we ordered our food via the QR code app. We ordered two fried chicken drumsticks. One piece was cooked perfectly and the other was slightly undercooked as it had blood running out of it. The chicken was very crispy and juicy. We ordered the deep fried bread with condensed milk and realized they might have used the same oil when they fried their fried chicken. Because our bread was spicy. The pick feet noodle soup was good, full of ingredients but the soup base lacked flavor. The spicy lamb pot was very spicy. We requested on the app for minimum/ little spice and it was still pretty extreme. So if you like spice, order that one. The lamb with rice was very bland. But it was healthy. The service was great. The waitresses were super nice and friendly. Overall, it tasted pretty good. I wished the chicken was cooked all the way, the bread wasn't spicy and there was more flavor to the broth and the lamb. read more

First of all, skip the boba. It's not terrible but it just isn't good. Boba itself is a mixture of overcooked and undercooked. I didn't know they had boba until I looked at the menu in person and wanted to add to my boba list. It wasn't a complete mistake, just know there are many boba spots nearby to satisfy that craving. Unless you also want to add to your boba list. They have online promotions such as a free drink when you spend a certain amount, but they seem to be takeout only and not dine in. I saw that Mike Chen visited and loved the fried chicken, specifically the drumsticks. That's also what they're known for and advertise, so it was an easy choice in ordering. Though my friends ordered other entrees so we had a good variety. They sold out of egg tarts when my friend ordered and they told us they're making a fresh batch even though they were closing in 30 minutes which was very kind. Fried Chicken (drumsticks, thighs, wings) - crispy and juicy but not the best I've had. If you're ordering fried chicken, I personally thought the drumsticks and thighs were better than the wings. I had a lot of hope for the wings but they were disappointing. They advertise "best fried chicken in WA" not particularly wings and when there Korean fried chicken exists, regular wings can be underwhelming. When I think fried chicken, I think the larger pieces like drumsticks and thighs anyway. Basically, skip the wings and order drumsticks or thighs. read more

A clean restaurant with lots of seating options. They have paperless ordering and a variety of Asian bites. My friend ordered the fried chicken combo that is super delicious and crunchy. I ordered the mala hot pot that was just right with my milk tea. The broth could be more spicy, hence the start reduction. Quite satisfied with parking, food and service. I'll definitely come back again. read more

Food A friend recommended us to try this chicken place so I tried their fried chicken and waffle fries (take out). The chicken was too dry for me (a bit on the darker color as well visually) and the seasoning was so so. The batter was crispy though. I prefer their waffle fries to the fried chicken. Service and Ambiance Pretty quick ordering process, card was accepted. Ambiance of the place was nice and cozy. Maybe next time I would just dine in. read more

This is why you can't trust social media influencers. I got got by one of the Seattle foodie IG accounts and they led me astray. First, it's probably not a good sign that I was the only one in the restaurant that ordered the fried chicken. But alas, hard to mess up right? Well, it wasn't bad. The chicken was fresh and juicy. My only complaint about the chicken was that it was pretty underseasoned. And so while it was crispy and juicy, it was bland. What really made me dislike my meal was how bad the fries were. They were literally the ones you get frozen from the store and they were very hard and unappetizing. It's very rare for me to not finish my fries but I couldn't. I'll come back for the other dishes next time but the fried chicken was not so tasty. read more

WOW! So Tasty exceeded my expectations! From the outside it looks like it's a small location, but it isn't! The restaurant is roomy and clean! There's not much parking in their lot, but there's plenty of street parking. The food was delicious! My mouth is watering just writing this...I ordered the original soup with braised beef and fried chicken combo. Mango green tea for my drink! My friend ordered the kimchi soup with braised beef. The soup is packed with SO much goodness! I couldn't finish it. The braised beef was cooked to perfection. The fried chicken was juicy and crunchy! Hands down the best fried chicken I've had in awhile. The service was just okay. You order everything through a third party website which I thought was cool because pictures were included, but it takes away from interacting with the staff. All in all, I can't wait to go back!!! read more

So Tasty - Original Soup with braised beef - Noodles Near Me - Bellevue, Washington

My boyfriend and I discovered this place through DoorDash. We were craving for milk tea and snacks so this place popped up. Afterward, we decided that we must visit this place in person and now it's our go to place for fried chickens. The restaurant used QR code ordering system so you can place multiple orders throughout your dining experience. The staff was polite and friendly. The service was super fast. Chicken combo comes with chicken, fries, and a drink. We upgraded our soda to the discounted milk tea. The waffle fries have potato wedges seasoning and crispiness. Their fries are the BEST I have ever had! I basically finished all the fries by myself. We tried both the original and spicy fried chicken. Our favorite is definitely the spicy ones because it just has more flavor and that bit of a kick really rounds up the texture of the batter. We were super impressed with the basil fried rice. The portion was huge! We really enjoy eating it with our order of cumin lamb. We were super full toward the end of our dinner but we decided that dessert is a must. So we got the cold grass jelly and one egg tart. The grass jelly was super soft and silky with a thin layer of condensed milk. The egg tart came straight from the oven so super hot! Probably one of the best egg tart I have ever had. The crust was flaky, almost a croissant like texture with a creamy middle. If you're going to only order two things from this place, please order the chicken combo and at least one egg tart. read more

Very interesting Chinese spot that specializes in fried chicken with a peppercorn mala taste. I ordered a combo meal with the chicken wings and fries and also tried a few of the egg tarts. Wings had such a nice kick to it, these may be some of my favorite chicken wings. The egg tarts has a nice outer crust, they may be some of the best egg tarts in the area. I also got their taro milk tea, not too sweet but you definitely taste the taro. read more

TLDR: the food here is fantastic and at a very fair price! There aren't many places on the Eastside open later at night, so I'm super happy to have discovered this place that closes at 9 on most days! You scan a QR code once you sit down in order to order your food. The menu is very extensive, serving hotpot, boba, fried chicken, and other Chinese foods. I've only tried a few dishes from here, but am excited to try many more on the menu because everything I have tried has been amazing! Mala Chicken: Note: They have a dine in promotion where you can get a generous serving of this which can feed 2-3 people for $9 and change. It's a huge amount of battered and fried bite size pieces of chicken, dusted with seasonings and served with peanuts and green onions. Salty, savory, and spicy but more of in a tingling sense rather than in an overwhelming manner. Basil Fried Rice: A simple egg fried rice that is somehow so much more elevated than what I can make at home. Now, you may be thinking, "Why should I pay for egg fried rice? I can make it at home for so much cheaper!" BUT YOU CAN'T. The texture of the rice is PERFECT and somehow every grain of rice is separated in this dish rather than glooped together. The best reference point I can describe it as is Din Tai Fung's EFR, but you get so much more here and for a much better price. Chicken Sandwiches: MOVE OVER CHICK FILA!! This is one of So Tasty's most popular dishes, and for good reason! The chicken is battered in a light, crispy, incredibly crunchy dough, but is still perfectly moist. The spicy version adds the perfect kick to it. Jasmine Milk Tea: This was a solid, standard milk tea! Good balance of the floral aroma, sugar, tea leaves, and milk. Also, more affordable than most boba places nowadays. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE let this be your sign to go visit this restaurant! They deserve more business and you won't regret it after tasting the food. It really does live up to the name "So Tasty"! read more

Let's start with service, there's one girl who works there is super nice and sweet. She would recommend me their best sellers or give me suggestions. I personally loved her personality. I asked can we dine in while my bf got outside food, she rejected us respectfully and gave us a proper explanation. She is seriously 10/10! The Portuguese Custard egg tart is the best thing on earth. I wish I tried it when it's warm because I had a long ride home it got cold. I agree with that hostess saying they have the best Portuguese egg tart. My bf is a picky eater and he was worried he won't even like it, so he wanted to have a bite from mine. Thank god I said no and told him if he doesn't like it, I will finish it for him. Guess what he ate the whole thing. The fried chicken and waffle fries are really crispy. They made it a great spice. I will definitely go back and try other things read more

Hmm, more like so not Tasty! I came here a while ago to try this spot out. Since a lot of people been telling me this spot is Lit... Okay. Stop by here and got seated quickly. I spoke Chinese to the staff she act like she didn't understand me and spoke English to me. My bad for assuming she is Chinese, but it is fine. I spoke back English to her. I got my water and waiting for my friend to join me. While waiting for my friend I was looking at their E-menu on my phone. And I can hear the speaking in Chinese toward each other.... In my mind, I'm like alright... I guess my Chinese is fluently for them to understand. But whatever Idc... We ordered a glazed Chinese donut and 4 pieces drumstick half and half for our appetizer to start out with. As for our main dish. I got the Mala pot with pork belly and my friend got one of their signature dish that comes with a pieces of fried chicken on the side lol... The Chinese donut tasted like any fried donut so nothing new but the portion is small like its only half of the full donut. For the fried chicken half spicy half original. Spicy one tasted better then the original. Decent fried chicken but I had better lol... As for my Mala pot. Broth tasted good not too spicy for me. Not much protein but mostly veggie. Mediocre, like I'm eating ramen at home. My friend liked his bland soup. As for the pricing about $17-20 bucks per soup. Overall, not my cup of tea for soup spot. read more

Everything was piping hot, if that was called for, and the people working that day were very cheerful and helpful. read more

So Tasty has been on my radar to try in the Bellevue Crossroads area for some time, and I'm glad I was able to stop by and give this restaurant a try! We went on a Saturday at 6:30pm and had a 5 minute wait to get seated. Orders at the time were mostly done through their online ordering system (QR codes at tables that take you to the site), and you order and pay your bill through the site, which is handy! I had a good variety of dishes which I'll review down below: Portuguese Egg Tart: Yum - This egg tart was scrumptious! The egg custard was creamy and I thought the sweetness in the tart was perfect. The puff pastry was very flaky and had a delicious and delicate texture, as in you could taste the layering of the butter - sort of like a croissant but a smaller scale - I would recommend this egg tart! Black Pepper Beef Combo: Comes with a sour plum drink! The drink had a good subtle plum flavoring with some tartness that was pleasing. Definitely a good refreshing option if you do decide to get some fried chicken, as it cuts through the richness/fattiness. Onto the entrée - they do indeed give you a good amount of food, as you get a kale salad and a tea egg in addition to the main you order, it is pretty filling! The beef was good - had a good consistency, and the black pepper sauce does give a good flavor from spice (not spiciness, but like a black pepper spice) - though I personally wished that I got a little bit more beef as at the end I was mostly eating rice. The kale salad was delicious! Had a good subtle garlic flavor, and it feels like the way they sautéed it gave a home cooked vibe - tasty! Fried Chicken Thighs: I wanted to try both the original and spicy version, and fried chicken thighs are usually my go to in terms of fried chicken. These were pretty tasty - the chicken was juicy and bread coating was crunchy and not too oily, delicious! The original flavor was good, but I personally like the spicy one more in terms of flavor as there was a comfortable amount of much needed spice to elevate the overall profile of the chicken. In the end, I spent about $30 for everything you see here. So Tasty is definitely a solid option as you do get a good amount of food given the price. I definitely would like to come back in the future to try the other options that they have to offer, and I recommend you come give So Tasty a try! (4.75 stars!) read more

We had a great experience at So Tasty. Their fried chicken was delicious, other dish also are good. Definitely will return.

Food was tasty and fairly priced! I was absolutely stuffed, which is great when he is able to finish the food I can't finish. The environment was very clean and mellow. However, it was cold, and uncomfortable in that regard for us. As for service, we were not expecting to have to do everything via our phones! We had to scan a QR code to get the menu, and then had to create an account for a service we didn't really want. This made it feel very institutional and somewhat impersonal. The two waitresses that were in there who brought us our food and water were very nice. In all it was an ok experience once we got past the initial shock of it not being what we expected. read more
