Often praised
- foodMy family and I had an extraordinary experience at this street court in the middle of Seattle downtown. We thoroughly enjoyed the food, location, and the ambience so much that we returned on our layover. The restaurant is conveniently located next to Nordstrom Rack and is easily accessible by public transport, including the bus and light rail from the airport and the Seattle Needle.
- portionsIt's a neat concept for an Asian food hall where you order from a touchscreen kiosk and then pick up your food and/or drinks from the respective stalls. The food was delicious with huge portions. I also enjoyed the great Thai iced tea.
- Asian foodIt reminded me of Bugis Street from Singapore. The banh mi was to die for, and the Asian food in general was amazing. I got the tofu meat and the pot, and everything was just so good; I would eat that every day!
- food optionsIt's a joyous market themed place perfect for grabbing delicious food on the go or meeting up with friends. The food options are excellent, and while the service is minimal as you help yourself, it's still excellent.
- varietyLots of variety of South East Asian food choices
- FoodFood:5
- authentic Thai foodreminds me of the authentic Thai food in Thailand.
- conceptcool concept, a place where one can sample food from various Asian countries
- crispy pork bellyThe crispy pork belly was, well, crispy. It had great flavor.

Frequently criticized
- foodMy experience at this restaurant was frustrating due to a complicated ordering process. We were directed to use kiosks, but these only offered drinks, leaving us unable to order food. It was a complete waste of time.
- food qualityAfter an hour of waiting, my food finally arrived, but it was way too crispy, to the point where it was painful to eat. The service was incredibly slow, and the food quality was very poor.
- chickenThey didn’t even debone the chicken properly
- egg sandwich40 mins for a basic egg sandwich is ridiculous
- brothRegrettably, my expectations were not met. The broth was disappointingly underwhelming, almost bland, lacking the rich, savory depth and complexity anticipated from a well-prepared Tonkotsu. The characteristic unctuousness and nuanced pork flavor were noticeably absent.
- crab rangoonWhen we finally received the order and opened the box, we were super disappointed. It contained five tiny rangoons that tasted like they were frozen from a box, comparable to what you'd buy at a grocery store. I will not be returning unless there are serious changes in cleanliness and food quality.
- food experiencemost Seattle food experience I have had in a while
- menusome of the places weren't even on the menu
- noodlesThe characteristic unctuousness and nuanced pork flavor were noticeably absent. The noodles were equally unremarkable, possessing an uninspired texture and taste. Based on this experience, I would unequivocally advise against ordering this specific ramen dish.
- orange chickenorange chicken that cost twice as much as it does at Panda Express and it tasted about a quarter as good
If youre looking for a place with a wide array of Asian dishes and dont mind a bit of a gamble, it's worth a try for the potential tasty finds and generous portions. However, be prepared for some inconsistency in quality and flavor, as it might not always hit the mark.

- serviceI was impressed by their commitment to sustainability, as they emphasize reusable cups, plates, and bowls to reduce waste. The Hainanese Chicken Set was a standout dish, and overall, the food, service, and atmosphere were all rated a perfect 5. The price per person was between $10–20.

Frequently criticized
- waiting timeMy experience at this restaurant was extremely negative due to its disorganization. I waited an hour and a half without any indication of when my food would arrive, leading me to leave and void the charge on my card. I did not receive my food, so I cannot comment on its quality.
- service88, and while it was comforting to have a hot meal on a cold night, the overall experience left much to be desired. For the price, I expected better service. Not only do you have to carry your tray to the cleaning area after you’re done, but you also need to separate food waste, cutlery, and trash yourself.
- refundI've been here two times, and both times the wait for our food was ridiculous and the service sucked. We waited over an hour for our food and they wouldn’t give us a refund either. I do not recommend this place whatsoever.
- ordering processI visited the Asean Streat Food Hall with a friend a few days ago. While the food court offered many options, the ordering process was a bit cumbersome. We weren't allowed to look at individual menus, and had to order from a main computer kiosk, which took some time due to the sheer number of choices.
- wait timewait time was way longer than it should have been
- ordermy order was never seen by the vendor
- ownerthe owner accused us of trying to pull a fast one on us
- food pickupvery confusing, as to where to pick up your food
- ordering systemThe ordering system was difficult too
- staffThe staff panicked and werent sure what to do
If youre lucky, you might encounter friendly staff, but be prepared for potentially long waits and a confusing, disorganized ordering process. Its a bit of a gamble, so manage your expectations if you decide to visit.

Awesome Food Hall Concept!
It took me a minute to understand what this place was when I went in looking for one place, but I found a place with more than a few food joints all together. What an awesome idea, and both plates we had were very tasty. The food was a 5 and the service was a 5, with an atmosphere score of 4.
The price per person was $20–30 for lunch.

Amazing Food, Long Wait
My experience at this restaurant was marked by some of the absolute best chicken katsu curry I've ever had. However, be prepared for a LONG wait. Despite the wait, the staff were incredibly friendly, and the food was superbly fresh.
You are definitely getting your money's worth at this fabulous spot. My partner enjoyed the beef bulgogi eggwich and was in a state of well-fed bliss.

Authentic Thai Flavors in a Food Hall
My colleagues recommended this food hall, and it was an experience worth having. As lovers of Asian, especially Thai food, we were impressed by the variety available. There's even a separate dessert section on the upper level, and the parfait ice cream is a must-have.
It's a self-service setup; you order via kiosk or booth and pick up your food when your number is called. We enjoyed the crispy pork, Hainan chicken, and Pad Thai chicken, all of which were very tasty and reminded us of authentic Thai cuisine. The decoration was nice, and there's plenty of seating.
I highly recommend this place for anyone craving Southeast Asian food, particularly Thai.

Mixed Experience: Good Thai, Disappointing Fried Rice
My experience at this restaurant felt like a food court specializing in Asian cuisine. It's a semi self-service model where you order and pay via an iPad, and they call you when your food is ready. I tried the Thai dishes, and while the Thai chicken basil with rice was good, the chicken fried rice was a bit disappointing.
On the positive side, the price is okay and the seating is comfortable. It strikes a balance between a food court and a traditional restaurant.
