According to Yelp, this review will be my 100th Chinese food review. I chose a sentimental eatery for the occasion. I enjoy supporting the underdog. Sometimes, it is the mom-and-pop place over the big-name place. Sometimes, it is the restaurant around the corner from the one who seems to get all the attention. King Noodle is in the latter category, being around the corner from its shinier competitor, Mike (who does have good food). King Noodle offers a wider array of choices, more categories of food types, and accepts credit cards! Their food is on-point, and their prices are very reasonable for a sizable portion of food. King closed for a very long time post COVID, and we finally made our first return visit. The meal is so homey, satisfying, and we have lots of leftovers. The restaurant is simple and tidy. The service is what I call Chinese no nonsense, which gets the job done! See my menu photos for the many options available. If you want take-out, call the restaurant directly. She said the apps charge a steep fee. The Food: Noodle soup (mine), $13.49 - 4.5 Stars These are huge portions with choices of two proteins and two veggies, plus noodle type and soup type. The classic name is "cart noodles". I chose original fish soup (same as genuine wonton soup), wonton noodles (sometimes called egg noodles), wonton, deep fried fish cake (slices), leek, and mushrooms. The soup is fabulous; the noodles have a wonderful chew and texture. The wontons are made fresh daily with fresh pork; these will still look somewhat pink after cooking. My only small ding is they use canned button mushrooms, which is kinda gross. I wish these were the black Chinese mushrooms. Noodle soup (hubby), $13.49 - 4.5 Stars Hubby chose original fish soup, wonton noodles, wonton, beef brisket, cabbage, and mushrooms. Same opinion. Congee with prawns and century egg, $11.99 - 5 Stars Congee includes choice of two items. Prawns cost a dollar more and well worth it. The congee is flavorful and so warming on a cold night. Chives and Pork Dumplings, 6pcs, $9.49 - 4.5 Stars These generously stuff dumplings are wonderfully seasoned. I would have liked the pan-fried version to be crispier, but I am happy with them anyway. Delicious! Hong Kong Milk Tea, hot, $4.99 - 5 Stars They serve these with the sugar separate (yes!!) in an insulated mug (yes!!). I *LOVE* places that serve the hot drinks with the sugar separate since I only want a hint of sweetness. The insulated mug kept the beverage warm throughout our entire meal. This is my most satisfying hot HK milk tea for a long time.

The little shop peaks out to the view of the courtyard in Chinatown Seattle. The menu is pretty simple, you order either a congee, noodle bowl, or a rice bowl. Then you pick two selections for each of the main bowls and then order with the waiter. The place is a bit small so when it gets packed the chairs tend to touch on some of the other chair and tables. We came in around 11 and was the first one there but around 12pm it started getting packed. The food was pretty good and to the core very much authentic. I liked how the clay pot rice had the crispy bottom. Extra points for getting the HK milk tea taste right!

This is the first place I tried when I first came to Seattle so it always has a special place in my heart! I absolutely love how customizable their noodle bowls are from the type of noodles down to the broth and toppings! It is always a warm bowl of noodles that is seasoned well with a great portion to fill up especially on cold rainy days. My favorite broth is the spicy one with the beef and tripe with the flat white noodles but the fun part is you can change out to have a fun new soup noodle dish every time! Highly recommend because their soup noodles are solid at an affordable price!

Found this place while looking to get noodles in the International District. It has these and it's more authentic than many of those around it. King Noodle gets its name from the street it's on. Also it opens pretty early. There's lots of meaty things to order, but vegans can find a few things. Best place if looking for an authentic Chinese noodle restaurant atmosphere. It's pretty accessible to American preferences if you can decipher the menu. This is one of those places where you put a check next to the stuff you want on a piece of paper. A few ingredients are unfamiliar but just ask. It's about $11 for the Noodle Combo. First you choose the soup base. Vegetarian one is the Thai Tom Yum Goong. After this you choose the noodles and toppings, any combination. I got it with the vermicelli. A lot to choose from. The toppings we chose included bean sprouts, leeks, and tofu skins. Bowls were full. This was the best of the noodle places around here at least in my opinion. Crazy thing is that it opens early. It's located on King Street between Maynard and 6th amongst many other noodle places around here. They actually open at 10 A.M., so you can get noodles at breakfast if you really are craving these, or maybe hungover and will just anything put on a plate.

The food came out fast and was hot and delicious. I would highly recommend the dumplings, they were soft with a nice crisp to them

Large portions and full of flavors. The broth is amazing and wontons almost as good as mikes noodle house. The service was good; server speaks Chinese and English. Lots of seating today and overall good experience

Before I did reviews, I used to come here specifically for their noodle bowls, and those were on point here! This time I went because I heard their stone pot rice dishes rival that of some other places in Chinatown I visit frequently, some of which I still consider my favorites. I went here during a Saturday around 6pm, and there was plenty of seating inside. There's not many tables but the place feels relatively quiet, which is nice when it's hot outside. My friend and I were seated relatively quickly and we made our orders. The server was really kind to accommodate one of my orders and answer questions I had on the menu. I ordered a stone pot rice with pork spareribs, Chinese sausage and eggs. As a side note, you get to choose two toppings for your stone pot rice, and get charged extra for each extra topping you add. This may also be the case when ordering noodle soup here too. The whole pot felt pretty much exactly what I'd expect from a stone pot rice bowl and more. I loved how I could choose the toppings and make it more of my own, and everything tasted great together! Both my friend and I were very satisfied. This place is one of several I like to take visitors to because of their quality of food, I highly recommend here!

Never expected that the clay pot rice is so good as I usually come here for the soup noodle. Lots of toppings and cooked so quickly that still has crispy rice at the bottom! Big portions of food. As a restaurant in Chinatown it is quite clean and the staff are friendly. Don't miss this hidden gem and it's easy to get a table.

I love noodles, and King Noodle hits the noodle and soup spot for me. The restaurant is small- it has 9 metal tables crammed into a cozy space, and you can see the kitchen through a small window in the back. I've only ever seen the same man working there; he is quiet but friendly and efficient. When you walk in, you'll be pounted to an empty table. The server (the aforementioned man) will bring utensils, water, and a half sheet of paper. This paper is your menu and order form. I like to get the pork and vegetable dumplings, pan fried, of course, and a bowl of soup. The menu/order form def felt overwhelming my first time there. There are no pictures or descriptions of any of the items. I have since learned that- you can't really go wrong with any of your choices. My noodle order of choic is usually something like- original soup, noodles (yep, one of the noodle option is just "noodles" among choices like "flat rice noodle" and "udon"), cabbage, beansprouts, wontons, and another meat or vegetable. I got roast duck the most recent time. This gets me a large bowl full of delicious and filling food. I love the texture of the cabbage and beansprouts against the perfectly tender noodles. I have not had their rice bowls, but they come out sizzling and seems to be a favorite amonst the regulars. I got there around 11:50AM on a week day last time, and noticed I was just ahead of a rush that came in around noon. Turnover seems pretty fast though, so I wouldn't let a full restaurant or a large crowd deter you.
