Disappointing Meal, Won't Return
My experience at this restaurant was largely disappointing, particularly regarding the food. I ordered the jumbo combo, which included General Tso's chicken, Mongolian beef, fried rice, and chow mein. While the portion size was generous, the quality of the food was not up to par. The fried rice was described as the worst the reviewer had ever had, and the General Tso's chicken tasted like bland chicken nuggets that relied entirely on the sauce. The reviewer noted that even Safeway offers better food. Despite the large portions, the overall food experience was poor, leading to a decision not to dine here again. The service was rated highly at 5, and the atmosphere was rated a 3, but these couldn't compensate for the subpar food.

Affordable and Generous Plate Lunch
In Seattle, where an average lunch out seems to cost $30+, you really can’t beat a $12. 00 plate lunch! I usually get the Lucky Meal with sweet and sour pork or mapo tofu. The staff are very generous with the portion sizes, making it easy to split into two or even three meals. There are many wonderful places to eat in the ID, but if you’re in a hurry and need something affordable and quick a few minutes from the Link station, this is the place!

Delicious BBQ Duck and Pork Manapua
My experience was seriously delicious! Your best bet is the BBQ duck lunch box and BBQ pork manapua. The duck is ridiculously juicy with super crispy, flavorful skin. The vegetables on the side are a little heavy on the sauce but lacking in flavor, but that's alright—the portions are big enough that you'll be plenty full from the duck that you don't even really need the veggies. There are plenty of tables in the food court. There's also a restroom, but you'll need the code that's printed on your receipt to access it.

Huge Portions, Lacking Service
My experience at this restaurant was a mixed bag. The food was great, and the portions were huge. However, the service was a little lacking; I had to flag someone down for assistance even though employees walked by. The atmosphere is that of a typical food court.

Terrible Food and High Price
My experience at this restaurant was very negative. The food was super salty and super fishy, and unfortunately, it gave me food poisoning. Compared to other poke places, the quantity and quality were very low. Additionally, it was more expensive than GoPoké, making the overall value poor.

Disappointing Food, Average Service
My experience at the restaurant was largely disappointing, primarily due to the food quality. I ordered the General Tso with fried rice and the fried fish. Unfortunately, the fried fish was chewy and tasteless, and the General Tso was bland and stale. The fried rice was just alright, but the chicken and fish were very disappointing. I would not recommend the food. The service was normal, nothing extraordinary. Overall, the experience was quite disappointing.

A Must-Visit in Seattle!
I absolutely love love love this place! My first visit was so good, and I can't wait to be back. It has become a must-visit every time I'm in Seattle.

Sweet Poke, Fast Service
My experience at this restaurant was a mixed bag. The food tasted like it could have been pretty decent poke, but it was unfortunately overwhelmed by a bunch of sugary goo. On the upside, the service was very fast.

Terrible Experience: No English, Bad Food, Dirty
My experience at this restaurant was extremely negative. The sever doesn’t speak English, which made communication very difficult. The food is disgusting, and the overall place is noisy and dirty. I would strongly advise against coming here.

Passable Poke, Lacking Flavor
My experience at this restaurant was passable. While the serving sizes are generous for the price, the flavor wise, the marinades still leave something left to be desired. You can definitely find better poke places in the area.
