Best dumplings and potstickers

by tobepepe

I do believe the potstickers can rival the ones in Taipei. The food is so reasonably priced. I highly recommend the potstickers, the spicy pork dumplings, and definitely the onion pancakes.

• Pros: Fast service, reasonably priced
• Cons: Limited restaurant hours, no high chair

Great Value and Food

by lysistrata

I think it would be hard to find a better value in the International Distircit. I think they have the best dumplings and green onion pancake in the International District. The green onion pancake is crispy on the outside and flaky on the inside. Its fun to watch them make the handmade dumplings at the table by the fridge. It is the type of place that if you run into a friend here you know they must have good tastse in food.

• Pros: Great Dumplings, Cheap

Best Deal In Chinatown?

by huskyduck

You would be hard pressed to find a better overall value in Chinatown than this terrific little noodle house. Authentic, hand made Szechuan noodles are the cornerstone of the menu. However, many believe the best dumplings in town are the ones made daily here in a little corner of the dining area, usually by two ladies. And no meal here would be complete without an order of onion pancakes.

Great authentic Chinese food, cheap, fresh, friendly service. One of the best deals in the entire city.

• Pros: dumplings!, noodles!, onion pancakes!
• Cons: no parking, likely wait

Weekly Treat

by turnpike74

I eat the dumplings here almost every week. The spinach/tofu is my favorite.Everyone agrees about the scallion pancakes, they are super leftover for breakfast too. This is a dining experience worth having, and I think you could go on a first date there......as long as your date is not a snob. Just go somewhere dark and romantic after......they'll be impressed that you explored something a little different.

• Pros: value, quality

Very good!!!

by alexisml

I went to many China Towns, many resturaunts, Toronto, Chicago and Hong Kong. I have eaten noodles on both hemisphere's and this is up there with Hong Kong. If I ever have a craving for Authentic Chinese noodles in Seattle, I would recommend this place. Caution...if you have a large car try finding a place to park on the street. Their parking lot only accommidates 10-14 cars and has a steep slope. The astmosphere is more pleasent now they have re-modeled... Try the Wonton Noodles with Extra noodles.

• Pros: Inexspensive, good food, plenty of seating
• Cons: packed during lunch

I'd die without them...

by pfdavidson

This place rocks.... Cheap eats, great food. The Green Onion Pancake is the best. Try the spicy noodle with beef tendon and throw in some Bambo shoots for a treat. This would cost you about $9 and there is now way you would be hungry.

Simple is best

by Warabi

Szechuan Noodle Bowl keeps it simple. I like their spicy vegetable dumplings (jiaozi), green onion pancakes, seaweed salad, and have occasional cravings for their cold noodle dish. The staff is pleasant, sometimes stuffing a tray of dumplings in the dining area while customers are making up their minds. Inexpensive, but remember to carry cash.

• Pros: inexpensive, comforting, good for vegetarians
• Cons: no credit cards

Green Onion Panckaes and Soup

by jessamyn_west

I have been going to this place on Christmas for as long as I can remember. It's a little hole in the wall with a friendly smiley woman who seems to never leave. There's often someone making dumplings on the table next to the one you're eating at. The green onion pancakes are cripsy and hot and makea great complement to any of their excellent soups. They serve Coke and Pepsi and keep your water glass full.

• Pros: friendly, tasty, mom n pop
• Cons: not super attractive, small menu
