Absolutely superlative! The beef chow fun and lemon chicken were divine.Couldn't ask for better service as our waitress had a sweet disposition and was very attentive.A wonderful experience and will definitely be back!
Most likely not the earliest Chinese restaurant in the area, but definitely the longest-running still in existence today! Since 1935, till now! If you just came over from taking one of the guided tours at the Wing Luke museum --HIGHLY recommended-- you may have noticed that one of the restaurants mentioned was this place! You walk in, and you're greeted right away. Kind of a dark atmosphere, but still pretty well-lit. Nice staff! Clean! Bruce Lee History Fact: This was Bruce's favorite place to hit up with his friends and disciples. He'd always order the 蠔油牛肉(Oyster-sauce Beef) I heard. So obviously, I had to get that too! Also tried their 椒鹽蝦 (Salt & Pepper Shrimp). They used frozen shrimp instead of fresh shrimp with the shells and the head. Different taste, but I don't have to peel away the parts with most of that flavor like the fresh ones.Not bad! Best of all, even though I didn't ask for the booth, there is a dedicated corner dedicated just for Bruce Lee, filled with his memorabilia and pictures on the wall. Next time I come back, I'm asking to sit HERE! It's not just a restaurant; it's a living testament to the cultural tapestry of Seattle.
Our family has been going here for over 20 years.Great food, visit Bruce Lee's table he sat at and the wall of all the famous food critics visitors.It's a restraunt set back in time well worth the visit.The only place I can find legit fried rice WITH bean sprouts.
