Best asian restaurant i have ever been. Oyster pancake and stew shrimp are yummy yummy. It is also not costly. I will definitely go again

Haydn Dalton

Facing East have a great selection of foods, but I cannot go there without having one of their Pork Burgers as an appetizer , they're amazing! Stay away from them if you have a peanut allergy, though.

David Go

Very interesting variety of food. Not many chicken dishes mostly seafood pork and beef . Spicy crisp chicken is the best appetizer . Stewed pork over rice is good too. Don't forget to ask for hot sauce !

Carmen

Hard to pick one favorite. We were a group so we asked for a family dinner and got to try five or six different dishes. Btw, Taiwanese food is not very spicy . The staff is efficient and friendly .

Norbert Hu

Align your taste buds with the pork belly appetizer and just about anything you order will be fantastic. This place serves authentic Taiwanese food only. Ask for the house made chilly sauce .

Nancy Raymond

Had dinner here last night and it was really good. If they get a liquor license, a beer would greatly enhance the amazing flavors.

Mingfei Yan

I come here often because it's close to my place. Very nice pork stew over ice and pork burger . Always crowed. One of the best Chinese food in town .

Martin Messah

Like what so many others mentioned, the pork burger is good. I had the spare ribs in black pepper sauce and I highly recommend it. 3 cup chicken taste good but a bit dry

Gun Street Grrl

Best restaurant in the world EVER! Every time I get back from SF I come here to refuel. Get their sesame noodles , clams stir fried w/basil, salt and pepper shrimp , and citrus tea !

Keri Ding

Authentic Taiwanese cuisine in Seattle. Can't go wrong with ordering anything. I especially like the appetizers

the pork burger , basil clams , Hakka stir-fry, pan-fried rice vermicelli , and the pickled radish fried rice are some of my favorites. top it all off with their new red bean matcha smoothie !

Whether it's your first time or tenth, you can't go wrong with the Braised Pork Stew (http://chewsy.com/r/a/4tsfO) or the Sliced Lamb (http://chewsy.com/r/a/WHFq0). Read more

The pork buns (gua bao ) are fantastic (much better than David Chang's in my experience). The basil fried chicken is totally addictive.

To get the extra long noodles from the beef noodle soup in your bowl, put your small bowl on the table and use gravity to let the noodle fall in.

Mariko L.

All good but the pork stew over rice , oyster pancake , and 5 spice chicken are my go to favorites.

Vikki K

Pleasantly surprised by their painted hills beef short ribs . Great for fans of black pepper .

Kassyn Ng

Everything is so good. Love the pork belly most! Melt in the mouth.

Genki U.

Great service. But conflicted about the food. Flavors are good, except a lot of dishes taste sweeter than I'd expect. America, are you hiding in there?

Jessica

Really authentic food; be ready for some line ups!! Even for take out . I had to call numerous times just to get someone to take my order

Monica Do

The pork buns are a must try! The bread is so soft and the meat is so tender!

chesty ben

Honestly, the pork chop was dry and not very good. And I love pork chops . Mustard greens and service were good? Other than that not the best taiwanese restaurant I’ve been to.

Martin Gontovnikas

The Taiwanese Burger and the pork stew over rice were so so amazing.

Jennifer L

My favorite restaurant ever! Order any of these and you will fall in love: basil clams , 3-cup chicken , sauteed lamb , oyster pancake , and of course, PORK BURGER !

Try the cold chrysanthemum tea but with boaboa (tapioca ) in it. The most soothing and tastiest drink ever!

Julie Mao

Their pork over rice dish is absolutely amazing and so are their pork sandwiches .

Alex Abossein

Their pork over rice dish is completely amazing and so are their pork sandwiches .

David Delgado

Nice place to have dinner . Try the pork burger , it is delicious!

Saurav Mukherjee

Spicy pork stew with rice . And of course the burger .

Zongxu

Lots of people during dinner time.. Booking available for 6 or more only, and you'll be seated only if everyone is present.

Norbert Hu

They make perhaps one of the best pork buns (刈包) in North America! Try one and tell me you love it. Thank you!

Katy Ionis

Spicy lamb was my favorite of the dishes I tried.

Tasty but heavy food. The pork stew was a highlight

Hailey Nguyen

I really like the food, but service is not great. They forgot one dish in our order, and when reminded it took a long time for it to come out after we finished our meal (the restaurant wasn’t full).

Nemo

Awesome place.. the pork bun is delicious.

ᴡ Santos

Need to get pork belly burgers . Each order is enough for two.

They have added a neon specials board in the entrance. Be sure to check it out or ask about it before you order!
