    This restaurant is famous for its Dim Sum and it's being flocked by many Seattlelites because of its fine Chinese cuisine. The restaurant is very authentic and there Dim Sum service is very fast! This makes it very easy for travellers who are on the go and local residents who just come in and eat on their lunch hour break.

    The restaurant is on the fourth floor of the Pacific Building and has a lot of parking. This is a convenience of customers since Seattle has the worst parking situation in the Nortwest!

    I didn't really like to pay for parking or look around for parking when I go to restaurants, so Kowloon Restaurant is the solution! There is no problem in parking.

    As a family, we order the Dim Sum since it is fast and it is very easy. A server with its pushcart of food will roam around the restaurant and all I had to do is pick what I want to eat!

    I love their steamed "bok choy" vegetables and I also love their dumplings.

    Chinese / Japanese Cuisine: A great place to take the family!
  • Tip Rating:
  • Satisfaction:
  • This restaurant is located in a small house in the Northgate area of Seattle on Roosevelt. I've been coming here for 8 years and have never had a bad experience. The food is excellent and the portions are great for a family event. If you are any where near North Seatlle or Northgate Mall this is a must!

    So many favorites! I love the chicken chow mein with homemade noodles. The homemade pot stickers are excellent. My sister in law loves their egg plant. My husband loves the Generals Chicken. My brother in law loves the sweet and sour soup. Our whole family loves this place!

    'Ohana

    'Ohana is great fun. The decor is like a tiki bar, and they serve tropical drinks and island and japanese food.

    The menu is set up so you don't have to order a big meal. You can order a robata and a few pieces of sushi, and get out of there without paying an arm an a leg.

    I love sushi, so that's what I've primarily eaten at 'Ohana. Love the Unagi. The Beef and Asparagus Rotaba is also quite tasty.

    They make a nice vodka martini too, if you're not into sweet drinks.

    Chinese / Japanese Cuisine: A Sushi Find in Ballard
  • Tip Rating:
  • Satisfaction:
  • I've been meaning to try Sam's Sushi for some time now and finally got around to it. I can't believe what I've been missing! The do take-out, which is what I had, but the restaurant is nice and clean and the service is friendly.

    I got a couple pieces of nigiri (unagi and hamachi) but the item that really impressed me was the Rainbow Roll. I've ordered this roll at many sushi establishments and am usually somewhat disappointed. But this Rainbow roll was fantastick! Fresh & tasty fish, avacado at the perfect stage of ripeness. Delicious.

    Chinese / Japanese Cuisine: Another Dim Sum in Seattle
  • Tip Rating:
  • Satisfaction:
  • There are many Dim Sum restaurants that are really, really good in Seattle. One is the Kowloon Restaurant which is located at the end of the International District. Now, there is a brand new one which is located in South Seattle.

    The restaurant is called Golden Daisy Restaurant. Not sure why most of the Chinese restaurants have names like Golden or Lucky. But, definitely, when you are in South Seattle, try this restaurant.

    They have Dim Sum, Barbecued Food to Go and Catering.

    The business hours are Monday - Saturday from 9:00 m - 8:00 pm.
    Sunday is from 9:30 am to 7:00 pm.

    The restaurant is closed on Tuesdays!

    The restaurants have tons of food to choose from: appetizers, soup, noodle soup, congee, rice, fried rice andchow mein, seafood, beef, chicken, pork, vegetable...They have lunch special, too.

    The dim sum includes the ham bao, meat bun steamed bbq bun, rice rolls, shrimp rice roll, bee rice roll, pork rice roll, bbq pork rice roll, mushroom rice roll and onion dried shrimp rice roll. There is also a black bean sauce chicken feet, beef meat ball, shrimp dumpling, steamed shui mai, steamed spareribs, Malaysia cake, Stikcy rice in lotus leaf, deep fried sesame ball and deep fried dumpling! Yum!

    Chinese / Japanese Cuisine: Jade Garden - Chinatown
  • Tip Rating:
  • Satisfaction:
  • While walking through Chinatown in the rain, we stumbled upon the Jade Garden. Stereotypically name for a Chinese restaurant, but it looked cleaner and nicer than some of the others in the area. The interior was well-lit and decorated with a creative mix of vines, bonzai trees and a big brass Buddha.

    For dinner we decided on the beef congee ($5), the restaurant's "special" soup ($10), and the Szechuan shrimp ($10) with tea and white rice. It was tasty, but way too much food at around $30 for two of us! The beef congee was exactly like I remember it in Hong Kong, a thick porridge-like soup made of rice with some thin yet tough slices of beef mixed in...topped with some hot sauce and it was good. The special soup was a unique mix of just about everything in the kitchen including shrimp, chicken, pork, beef, squid, and several other items, along with a mix of vegetables. Finally, the Szechuan shrimp was also a nice dish, but not too spicy.

    Open late! Seven days a week 9:00 a.m.-2:30 am. It is said they have some of Seattle's best dim sum, which is served all day.

    Chinese / Japanese Cuisine: Purple Dot Cafe - Chinese Restaurant - Chinatown
  • Tip Rating:
  • Satisfaction:
  • After having dinner in Chinatown, we wandered around looking for a good place to get dim sum for breakfast. While wandering around, we noticed the oddly-named Purple Dot Cafe had dim sum until early afternoon, so we decided to give it a shot the next day for lunch.

    We arrived around 11am, and were seated at one of the few empty tables...yes, this large restaurant was that full on a Friday! We only wanted dim sum this fine morning, and we were not disappointed. We had three dishes--shrimp balls that I could have done without, regular old bbq beef bun, and some bean curd egg roll-type things (so I'm not good with the Chinese names of the food items!).

    The food was all very good, especially the beef buns. Our total bill was a very reasonable $15 considering the two of us were pretty full at the end of our meal. Service was iffy, especially when trying to get our bill, but I'd be willing to go back next time I'm in Seattle!
