    Pork banh mi
    Sophia W.

    Fast service with great food! The space is very cozy, with plenty of seating. What you pay is what you get, I've only gotten banh mi sandwiches here, but I'd love to try their noodle dishes! I tried a little of my friends pad Thai and was impressed by the large portion and flavor.

    We both ordered the Grilled Chicken Vermicelli. Portion was well sized and it had a lot of chicken. Would have liked more basil and perhaps not the best I've had, but solid and well priced. The woman working there was friendly and the food was ready quickly.

    Time Bistro is a local favorite in the heart of the U District. It's a casual and cozy space perfect for a quick and simple meal. The service is consistently fast and friendly, even when it gets busy with students. They have a full display of vegan and vegetarian options that mirrors their regular offerings. Some locals told me the Banh Mi sandwiches are easily one of the best in Seattle and I was disappointed that I didn't get to try one myself. We wound trying this Bbq fried rice dish and a sampler of their most popular appetizers. Definitely a neighborhood gem for quality Vietnamese comfort food at a fair price.

    Needed food and found this spot. Walking inside you see tables and the register in front. They have a QR Code menu or a regular menu. I ordered the Beef Short Rib Plate, Garlic Butter Wings & Strawberry Lemonade . Beef Short Ribs were good....Garlic Butter Wings were good....Strawberry Lemonade was good. If you're in the area swing by and check this place out.

    The food was packed full of flavor! Great portion for price. Service was fast and quite pleasurable. It's a small spot yet accommodates many tables. The bathroom was very clean and smelled nice. Great leftover as well. Air fryer for the reheat win.

    I ordered a beef banh mi sandwich and it was the best beef banh mi I've had! Beef banh mi from other restaurants I've been to are not as delicious as Time Bistro's. The amount of fillings gave a balance profile and the French bread wasn't too big, thick or overly toasted-- it doesn't hurt the roof of my mouth. It still had a good crunch though! The service was quick, thorough, and friendly. I'm definitely coming back to try other items on the menu.

    My favorite spot to get pho in U District! Service is always fast here and the flavors hit the spot for me. My friends and I always come here after a long day of classes or on a rainy day when we're craving soup. We love ordering the crab delights from here!

    Great food and a nice spot to check out if you're in the U-district area! It's a casual little spot with tables inside. Service is friendly and it was nice because they did split checks for us. They have a vegetarian menu which is separate from their regular menu and my friend with some dietary restrictions really appreciated this! Lots of options for vegans as well. I got their combo noodle bowl which included pork skewers and an egg roll over noodles and salad. Very refreshing and well balanced. The meat was tender and very flavorful. The sauce could have been a little more tangy but still pretty solid.

    As of right now, I thought this was alright for Vietnamese food but, I do think that it is a good convenient place for UW students since its place on the Ave. The inside was kinda small, and the staff was really nice and welcoming. Anyway going onto the food, maybe I had ordered the wrong thing because I felt like I wasn't getting my money's worth with the vermicelli bowl (portion size). I was there with my friends and I thought the pho seemed more worth it and good. Then lastly I also tried the tofu appetizers but I thought they were ok too. But I will come back to try other things!

    Shelby C.

    Solid vietnamese place on the ave! The menu has so many options and I definitely want to come back to try more things. Got the pork skewer vermicelli and it tasted pretty good and good portion size. Also tried the flan and loved the texture and flavor. The food came out pretty quickly as well

    A subpar pho place. The broth is not flavorful, and they gave one small tray of bean sprouts to the three of us having pho.

From that first dish, we knew that this fresh, foraged menu was going to be something different. The rest of the night was one knockout showcase of seasonal farm to table masterpieces to the next. The entire presentation was delivered by attentive wait staff putting on what felt more like a well-rehearsed play with each act starting with a wickedly creative, hand-crafted drink pairing (non alcoholic for us, but you can get wine, cider, or a cocktail) before each course. The whole vibe isn't pretentious or bourgeois; it's grateful. Everyone there including the chefs know there isn't anything like this in the city, much less the state. It was one of the more pleasant restaurant guest audiences I've ever been around too. It felt like all the nice people in the city decided to meet, so this 5-star review is for our fellow diners too. The only thing missing was a moment for the chefs to take a bow at the end, but instead they sneaked out the door, off to wherever superfoodie heroes go after a night of saving palates. #salute.

We shared a bunch of appetizers: bolani, burta, and the mushroom qorma. Burta was my fav but every single dish was so flavorful. For my mains, I got the murgh kebab.. the chicken was so tender and well-marinated but the flavored rice stole the show for me. Also the place feels super authentic, cozy, warm, not trying too hard, just real. And the owner was hilarious, so witty, and made the whole experience feel extra special. You can tell he cares and it shows. Now the saddest part: I just found out this restaurant has been around for decades and is closing forever soon. Truly heartbreaking! I really wish I'd discovered it sooner. If you've been meaning to go, don't wait. This spot is a gem and def deserves a visit before it's gone. FYI, it closes on Jan 3rd 2026!

This was my first time trying Afghan food so I was excited to see what the cuisine offers. We got the combination kebab for 2 (2 red meats - lamb and beef, $100) which is basically a full set course menu and a fish qorma as another entree as there was 3 of us. The combination kebab is definitely more than enough food for 2, as the 3 of us shared that plus one entree and we were all stuffed. Ash - traditional noodle soup with kidney beans and chickpeas. I like the salty and slightly tangy aspect of the soup and it definitely whet my appetite for what is to come. Badenjan Borani - eggplant. I don't like eggplant but found the taste of this to be delicious. It is a bit on the mushier side for my liking though Fish qorma - fish was cooked nicely in a tomato based sauce Seekh kebab - beef. I didn't really like this one as much since the meat was tough but the flavor was great. Bara kebab - lamb. I love this one as it was juicier and more flavorful Kabuli palaw - the rice dish that comes with the kebab. I love this - it's like jeweled rice from Iranian and Persian cuisine, which offers carbs and a bit of sweetness to it. Pairs excellently with the dishes Firni - cardamom, pistachio, rosewater pudding. Classic Afghan dessert. Quite sweet but refreshing at the same time. Love it Dogh - an interesting salty drink made with yogurt, fresh mint, and salt. It felt like I was drinking sauce but more palatable. Service is good as dishes were taken out in good cadence and food came out at a decent pace.

The food took an hour-- clearly understaffed. I was very hangry and frustrated but didn't say anything. The staff knew it and knocked off 50% off.

The Cajun fries with the spicy Srirancha is a must order. Perfectly crispy thick cut fry with some magic seasoning on top makes us demolish this quickly. My friend got the Oxacan bowl-- what flavors. The rice, slaw, veggies, beans and the sauces were perfection in every bite. My Bahn Mi bowl was okay-- i found the sauces too vinegary so this one is on me.

The vibes were really nice too - the outside patio is dog friendly and they brought our pup a water bowl too. If you want alcohol though you need to be inside or on the back patio (not pet friendly). Will definitely be back to eat my way through more of their menu items!
