Pike Place - Reviews

My experience at this restaurant was mixed. The window view was decent, but I wouldn't recommend sitting down. If you ask for water, they'll bring you bottles that cost over $3. The portions were small, and while the food was cooked well, it was way overpriced for the size and standard fare. The hombow was good, so I'd suggest sticking to ordering from the window.

This Chinese restaurant, located in the heart of Pike Market, offers a good view of the Seattle water. However, the experience was largely negative. Each dish we ordered was a small portion but cost around $21-22 USD. The chow mein was dry and bland, and the fried rice was oily. To make matters worse, they do not provide service water, instead offering tea for a fee. A significant issue was the automatic 15% gratuity fee added to the bill without prior notification, which is separate from the tip. I would advise dining elsewhere, as the majority of reviews being negative is telling.

My experience at this restaurant was disappointing due to several issues. The water was charged at $3. When I asked for one shrimp dumpling, I was given four and charged $18. Additionally, there was an involuntary 15% tip added to the bill. I would not recommend this place.

My experience at this restaurant was average. The food was just okay, and I was surprised by a 15% service fee that wasn't clearly communicated. This was my first and last visit.

We were looking for something to eat around Pike Place later in the evening, and many restaurants were closed, so we ended up here. The experience was very overpriced, and the food was nothing crazy, though the portions were good. We tried the vegetable chow mein and the wonton soup, and both were just okay. A big plus was the beautiful view of the water.

My experience at the restaurant was a mixed bag. The view and the service were great, earning a perfect score. However, the food was just okay and a bit pricey. While the atmosphere was also rated highly, the food quality didn't quite match the overall experience.

My experience at this restaurant was overwhelmingly negative due to the exorbitant prices and tiny portion sizes. A plate of General Tso's Chicken, costing $20. 98, was barely a scoop of chicken with only three pieces of broccoli, and it didn't even come with rice – that was an extra charge. The other three dishes we ordered were similarly disappointing. To add insult to injury, a can of Diet Coke cost $5, which felt like highway robbery. To make matters worse, there's a mandatory 15% service charge, so you can't even opt out of tipping if you're unhappy with the service or food.

My experience at the restaurant was fantastic! We stopped in to split an entree after wandering around for a bit. The restaurant was empty, and we were seated right away. When we asked for tea, the waitress promptly brought it over, and the jasmine tea was great! We shared the house-style noodles with tofu, adding chili paste, and it was perfect. The tofu had a wonderful texture, the noodles were expertly cooked, the vegetables were crisp, and the serving size was just right for two people. We're definitely planning to return to try more dishes. I also appreciated that they offered more tea if we wanted to stay and chat, even though we were ready to leave. Plus, the view was amazing!

My experience at this restaurant was very poor overall. When I asked for water, I was charged $6. A can of Wake was also way overpriced. The food was perhaps a 5/10. The lady who served us was not very welcoming or kind. This restaurant felt like we did not get good value at all.

My experience at this restaurant was disappointing. The food was extremely overpriced for what it was, being both oily and served in small portions. To add to the frustration, we had to pay for our own water, and there was an automatic gratuity added to the bill. The food quality and value for money were very poor.
