Very very yummy Chinese food in a clean and modern place that is neither fine dining nor fast food. Lots of great vegetarian and vegan options. Their sweet and sour cucumber is a must have. Dan Dan Noodles were pretty good too but the portion was quite small for US standards. Perfect for European portions though. I went her for lunch and had to be at at meeting on time afterwards. The ordee taking process is fast through an app but it took half an hour for the Dan Dan Noodles to come, that too after I asked the waiter to check on them. When they did come, they were piping hot though. 👌🏼 I highly recommend this place for vegetarians!

Just off the Chinatown Station of the 1 Line a joint that serves Taiwanese cuisine. Similar to Din Tai Fung. The Xiaolong Bao were pretty juicy. Try their pan fried pork buns too and the beef pot stickers. They are the bomb. The beef noodle soup is pretty rich and spicy. The beef are cut into small cubes making it easy to eat but difficult to use chopsticks on. Not much staff and the place can be a bit noisy. Not quite as good as Din Tai Fung but pretty close up there.

This is a fantastic, reliable place to get great steamed dumplings (Xiao Long Bao), buns, and noodle dishes (Dan Dan 🤤). Fav drinks like milk teas w/boba and hot teas (Jasmine/Chrysanthemum) are perfect for different weather and seasons. Don't expect friendly, conversational service as these guys are all about efficiency, esp w/the volume of traffic they get on certain days. To get on the waitlist at the ID location, they now use Toast but have been jumping back and forth with other services, like OpenTable. Quality of the food has been recently mixed bc some dumplings have had obvious freezer burn, which expectations would have preferred fresh dumplings. Gone are the days of 10 dumplings and A-Choy 😔. Overall, Dough Zone is a great compliment to the vibe of ID with a great location across the street from the light rail station and nearby Uwajimaya.

A great stop off, especially before heading out to other plans! Very clean and perfect comfort food on a rainy day. The bathroom is a little bit of a walk and a code is needed, but it's shared with other businesses in the building. The food was quick amd tasty and very filling, especially for the price point - I look forward to coming back.

Stopped by during my stay in Seattle and I’m so glad we chose this place for lunch before we left. Everything we ordered was so fresh and delicious. Soup dumplings were so flavourful. Cucumbers were so crunchy and refreshing. Really reasonably priced (USD) compared to the other restaurants nearby, but as the CAD is awful.. it was not great for my wallet. Would definitely come again
