Asian Food Paradise! There's Japanese, Chinese, and some various other random items mixed in.
Service is super friendly. Almost too friendly. Lots of talking when we just wanted to eat.
I thought the food was fine. My wife thought it was not so great.
I just loved having the choices of many different types of food. Makes it easy for everyone to find something they like. Or, to mix it up. Like sushi with General's Chicken.
I, personally, would go back. But, I'd have to do it without my wife.
I say it's worth checking out for the variety if nothing else. -

Terrible. Wife's pad thai had an acrid smell, and tasted bitter, and just wrong. The server was then very abrupt, and stormed away. The chicken teriyaki was dry, and covered in sauce to hide the flavor of the chicken. The Mongolian beef was mealy and chewy.
This place used to be a good place to eat. -

Wow. Tragic. We came here because we were looking for something quick and near Target, and we thought how bad could it be. The ladies working were very nice and hospitable. We were greeted right away and seated. We ordered Shrimp Pad Thai, Beef and Broccoli, and Cashew Chicken. Between 3 entrees they came with 5 scoops of rice, which was plenty of food for 3 adults and a child.
When the Pad Thai came, I knew we were in trouble. The shrimps were good size, cooked well, and tasted good. However the Pad Thai sauce was way off. It was too sour. Like way too sour compared to any Thai or Vietnamese restaurants we've had, authentic or not. So sour it almost tasted it was foul, even though it was not.
Next came the beef and broccoli. It was full of garlic, and very saucy. This is supposed to be a typical Chinese-American dish, and it was a bit strange to my tastes, being Chinese and yet have had my fair share of Americanized Chinese fare. It was edible though.
The Cashew Chicken was the major disappointment, even worse than the Pad Thai. It came in the identical sauce to the Beef and Broccoli, which is not supposed to happen. Cashew Chicken is supposed to be a take-off of the Chicken Almond Ding, which is a real Cantonese dish. But they used their run-of-the-mill garlic brown sauce instead. And it was full of oil...like pools of the stuff around the dish. Ick...
We had a lot of left-overs, and we left it all on the table. It is a sign that my entire family disliked the food that much, as we are typically a clean plate club kind of a family. My son who loves Pad Thai, barely ate enough to have his fill. He just picked all the shrimp out.
I really hate to write any reviews below 3 stars, but the food experience was basically the worst of our 3 week trip in Seattle. It would have been a 1 star save for their exemplary customer service.
I guess if you're in a hurry and need something quick, get the beef and broccoli on a lunch special. It is edible. Perhaps we should have gotten the teriyaki. We'll never be back to find out. -

Not even close to fresh. The chicken teriyaki was old and dried out. They did not even warm it up right. Warm on top cold pieces of chicken under and then put teriyaki sauce on top. Then the beef was over microwaved and the veggies were soggy. Overpriced to boot!!!

Just recently found this place and the food was delicious. The servings were huge. Had enough left to take to work lol. Will definitely go back. Good chance of becoming a regular customer.
