10. Miyabi Restaurant

Sashimi was fresh. Crunchy roll was supposed to be Shrimp Tempura. Turned out to be fake crab meat. Busy place so you canât linger over dinner. There is a line out the door with more customers waiting to get in. Not a place to enjoy dinner. Just eat and leave. Convenient location with parking in the strip mall.
9. Mizuki Buffet

Better than most buffets but Feast buffet in Renton is better. Mizuki's Senior dinner buffet on weekdays is $23.49. Feast is $24.29 but Feast is much larger and much more selections to choose from. Here was not bad compared to others but Feast is better. Sushi was substandard-almost bland and no flavor for most. Their prime rib was good and so was their sausage. They had some baked scallops and shrimp that were good and bacon wrapped shrimp. Shumai was OK and they had cold chicken feet in the salad bar. Interesting-tried it. I had eaten them heated in dimsum but never cold. OK and they had warmed up pigs feet that were quite good. Many people seemed interested in their desserts and ice cream. They had snow crab but no crab cracker so I had to ask the waitress for one. Some of the staff seemed to lack English skills and sometimes did not understand what you were asking-young lady at the front desk. I asked her how old is a senior and she did not understand. They were not that busy but waitress was good. Young lady at front desk was on her phone most of the time looking at things.
8. Bai Tong Thai Restaurant

I checked out the Tripadvisor reviews to find a goos local restaurant after getting in to Seattle at dinner time. There was quite a few Thai restaurants in the area and Bai Tong Thai looked promising, so I decided to visit it. I ordered Khao Soi, a type of Thai dish I had not had yet had. The dish has crispy egg noodles, shallots, lime, pickled green mustard, sliced red onion and chicken in thin yellow curry. I enjoyed the meal, it had a light, refreshing taste. I would recommend a visit.

The first thing you notice is that the service is impeccable. Servers are very efficient and very friendly, some of the best service I've had. The food is amazing with a good variety of Chinese dishes. Definitely recommend coming with a group so you can order and try a variety of dishes. There are no reservations so get there early or be prepared to wait for a table.
6. Masaes Teriyaki

Having been rebooked due to maintenance issues, an eatery was in order to tide one over. Surrounding the array of hotels near SeaTac airport is an ample array of your typical US fast-food places along international boulevard. Not a block south of the intersection with S 188th street is Masaes Teriyaki. The eatery isn't fancy, and seats, at most, 25 people. It offers an enticing array of dishes. Their gyoza were crispy, flavorfully filled, and accompanied by a gyoza sauce in which the rice wine vinegar, sesame oil, ginger and other ingredients were very well balanced. Their Udon vegetable noodle bowl was as delicate and flavorful, with the rice noodles cooked to perfection. Why spend the same amount for a meal at a fast food place and come away with that typical bloated aftermath, when a short walk away is a gem. Highly recommended.

I had a huge chicken teriyaki bowl with rice for under $6! There were other great lunch specials and menu options (including spicy teriyaki) in the $7-10 range. Very big servings and really delicious teriyaki. I like the way this restaurant seems to grill the whole chicken breast and then slice it up. If the chicken is cut up before cooking, it just ends up rubbery. Highly recommended for dine in or take out. Either way, order at the counter first.
4. Phra Khun Thai Bistro

Phra Khun Thai Bistro is under a new management from late March 2016. The owners are from Thailand and are serving their authentic Thai food. The restaurant is decorated into a home-like environment along with their friendly services.

Perfect place for date night. Husband & wife team do an excellent job preparing Thai favorites, including Pad Thai and numerous curry options. We particularly love the Tom Kha (chicken soup made with coconut milk) and Avocado Curry, one of their signature dishes with Panang curry, chicken, bell peppers, fresh avocado & coconut milk. We usually choose "mild", but because everything is made fresh to order you can dial-in any desired spice level. For dessert, we think the fried banana & coconut ice cream is particularly luscious. Located along the main drag (Marine View Drive) at the north end of Des Moines.

This place is amazing -- Vietnamese food (including Pho) and some Thai dishes and other generally-southeast-asian dishes, all of great quality, very friendly staff, and very fresh ingredients. Large to huge portions, moderate pricing, and even when the restaurant is full, speedy service. I'd strongly recommend a detour to visit this place, and if you're in the vicinity of the airport, it's a great option. Everything I had was great (although I stuck to pretty classic dishes -- singapore vermicelli noodles with shrimp; mongolian beef; pho with ribeye) -- the unexpected but still great item was tempura/fried cheesecake as a dessert.
2. Mango Thai Cusine & Bar

Mango Thai is within walking distance of the Seattle-Tacoma airport and the multiple hotels/motels in this area. The food is just exceptionally good. It is quite obvious that the vegetables and fruits are extremely fresh and of the highest quality. Moreover, the cooking and sauces are very close to perfection. As the food, the service is excellent. The staff is knowledgeable and friendly.The restaurant itself is a pleasant room and noise level is minimal. Mango Thai is definitely a âgo toâ place if staying the area or even between flights. At 5:30 on a Sunday night, the restaurant was already almost full and the take out service was very busyâ¦â¦â¦â¦â¦â¦I think this illustrates the excellent reputation.
