Review Lionhead - Seattle

Sameet Sapra
Laidback, casual place with really tasty food! The standouts were the mapo doufu (with tofu), the rockfish, and the cumin beef. I didn’t care for the duck, I expected it to be more like Peking duck but it was not. Despite that the flavors were still good, I liked the fried veggies that came with it. I also didn’t think the cocktails were overly impressive.

The food was delicious. We had the soupy veg dumplings and Ghost pepper noodles. The Ghost pepper noodles was absolutely amazing, super super spicy but we loved it. Probably should have come with some warning because that is not for people with less spice tolerance. The waiter was friendly and welcoming. We are definitely going back to try their other dishes.

It's so nice to eat food that isn't bland. You can actually taste the seasoning in the food. The drinks (alcoholic and non) are phenomenal, and veer away from traditional boring drinks. The staff are very knowledgeable about the ingredients and are always helpful in picking items out. Especially if you're new to Sichuan style food. They have a/c!

Lots of flavors! Everything served family style. I had green beans, fried rice & prime rib with one friend & it was the perfect amount of food. My friend “loves Chinese food & can’t do spice” but this wasn’t too spicy for her. Good cocktail selection. Service was 🤔 but the server did say they were new.

The food is so good, and thank god because the service is so bad it’s actually funny. we sat down and waited at least 10 minutes to order our drinks. Meanwhile the servers are taking shots by the bar. We ordered the dumplings as an appetizer, which were totally forgotten and ended up coming out last. I miss their tamarind drink. I would recommend going here if you have low expectations for service and high expectations for food!

Delicious food and a great experience! Server was super friendly and helpful. The food was good and there were a few unique options. I would definitely recommend! There was one dish that had a little bit too many dried chili's, and not enough of everything else, but otherwise it was perfect.

This is one of my favourite restaurants in Seattle. Great food at decent prices. And friendly and service-minded staff!

They have a diverse and large selection of vegetarian options, almost half the menu. We ordered ghost pepper noodles, pumpkin cumin dumplings, and sweet, sour and tingling fried eggplant. Every dish had completely different flavor profiles, but equally intense flavors. The noodles were a tad bit too spicy, but then they definitely had the ghost pepper in there. Their non alcoholic drinks were a surprise; they use actual pulpy lychee juice! The place itself isn't very formal or unique. Go here for the punchy flavors.

We ordered the Pork Dumplings in Chili Sauce, the Ma Po Doufu, Gung Bao chicken, and Dan Dan mian. I thought everything was amazing. It was WAY too much for 3 people. I’d ask your server which meals are good for splitting. I thought the food and service was amazing. We’ll definitely come back. Great if you like Szechuan.

Bao buns are my favorite though you can go wrong with any of it. Some of the best spicy in town! Just had the rockfish. It’s nuts that this food is so great.

Excellent food! We tried this place for the first time and was pleasantly surprised how great it was. We weren't able to try a lot of the menu as there were only two of us and the portions are large. But what we ordered: “boneless crisp duck”, “yu xiang eggplant fries” was delicious and flavorful. Their drinks are delicious too, try “Chinese 5 spice old fashioned”. All dishes can be gluten free upon request. Service was great! Recommend for big company.

Overall a great experience including the service. Their house made chili oil is absolutely fire - salty with good acidity and a decent kick of heat. The mapo doufu was good, but I wish there was more doufu - sauce to doufu ratio was a little off, and I also would have liked a little more Sichuan peppercorn. Normally when I order that dish I don’t want to be able to feel my mouth. Regardless, still good. Cumin lamb noodles had a ton of meat. Noodles were perfectly cooked and flavorful. Will be back to try some of the other stuff on the menu!

Absolutely amazing Sichuan. I feel like at many Sichuan places, all dishes taste similar but not here. Each dish was so unique & flavorful. On top of the amazing food, our server Lindsey was so happy & knowledgeable about the menu. Her energy & attitude made the experience 2x better. I left happier because of her and the food.

My sister loves this place, so I tried it today. Wow!!! I've never had food like this before. The eggplant fries were tangy, crunchy and sweet. The Chinese bacon and rice cakes had a delicious savory dark soy sauce flavor. The dan dan noodles were my favorite. So savory and filling. As delicious as it looked! It was a filling meal with a great calm atmosphere. Also, this has nothing to do with the review, but the waiters are so stylish 👀 Thank you for dinner :) best food I've had in months I'm serious!!!

Great local spot for some good old Americanized Chinese comfort food like Kung Pao Chicken. Their spicy cumin beef is just fantastic and I'm salivating as I'm thinking about it. I loved their version of Dan Dan Mien and their stuffed Fried Tofu skin. All their dishes are well executed for what they are. They use good quality, locally sourced ingredients which reflects in the price of the dishes, but well worth it. Their food is flavorful and the portions are generous. The space can get a bit cramped but they have a full bar and also do take-out and delivery of you don't wanna wait around. Highly recommended if you're all about quality.

Whenever I travel back to Seattle, I stumble on a great restaurant. This is one of them. Straightforward dishes done well, with the flavors kicked up a notch. A handful of excellent vegan dishes on the menu along with inventive cocktails. Very warm and attentive staff.
Atina Tan
Everything was delicious. Garrett has a new pork dish in the menu that is a little saucy/soupy and very warming and satisfying. The frog legs are crispy and finger lickin’ good. The whole trout is yummy finished w chili oil. Go and order something you’ve never had before. You won’t be disappointed! Oh, and get the 5 spice old fashioned.
Zachary Cyr
The food was delicious but the portion size was tiny. Delightful atmosphere and very good staff. Would go again.
Cija Johnson
Easily fave restaurant. Awesome service, ridic flavor!
Andrew LaBonte
Best Szechuan food in Seattle. Happy hour is an amazing deal. Sexy space, cool atmosphere and friendly, knowledgeable staff. Not to be missed.
Rene Posadas
Excellent woksmanship! My fave: house made buckwheat noodles in spicy sesame sauce, Ma po doufu is only great if the tofu is, which it is! Crispy duck is my first order next visit and their rare puer tea.
Anita L. Elder
First time ordering delivery from your restaurant. We loved everything! I especially loved the dandan noodles and the eggplant fries!
Matthew Gregory
The numbing is everything � eggplant fries, lamb dumplings, the La Zi Ji chicken ��� I'll be back
Mark Bronaugh
When the restaurant first opened we were deeply disappointed. Last night’s experience was just the opposite. Great service and magical food. So glad we gave this worthy restaurant a second chance.
Elliott Pesut
Don't miss the Sunday brunch! It's excellent. Highly recommend the radish cakes & four-egg wok omelettes!
Chad Sheffield
Every time I go back there's more stuff on the menu and everything is still amazing.
Joanna M Austin
Amazingly different! soooo yummy. We loved the duck and the noodles were mouth numbingly delicious!
James C. Petersen
The worst! Pretentious menu bordering on the ridiculous, complicated tea service, A mandatory 20% gratuity with 10% caliber super slow and forgetful service, no holding area so waiting guests were surrounding tables diners were seated at. This place should go out of business.
Ward James
Excellent meal and great service. The numbing effect of the Szechuan pepper was amazing.
Mike Klozar
Outstanding authentic Sichuan flavors that are both tongue numbing and extraordinarily addictive. I now endlessly crave Jerry's Dan Dan Mein noodle dish. So will you.
Fiona Black Jackson
One of our favorite restaurants on the hill. The specials are always excellent . The BEST Ma Po Doufo(sp?) ever. Great food, great service.
Fifie Nevada

Katie Davis

Chadwick Radaz
