知食份子 Northeast Kitchen

A pleasant surprise. We were planning to visit another place but we were fooled by the sign (it’s just an empty space at the moment). One thing that stands out from this restaurant is the 鑊氣—every dish is piping hot and you can tell it went through a high heated wok. Slightly on the oily side. We’re not familiar with NE cuisine and will come back to try out more.

If you like greasy, spicy, and home style cooking, this maybe Ok. If you expect good value and friendly service, this may not fit.

Food was fine. However, they started playing TV pretty loudly when the employees were taking a lunch break. We were forced to find a different place to chat.

Prior to knowing about Northeast Kitchen, we would drive to Richmond BC for authentic Jilin food. Northeast Kitchen is fantastic!! Servicing home cooked Jilin food and some staff are from Changchun 👏🏻 Ordered twice cooked pork (authentic Chinese style), pork intestine, fried croakers, spicy chicken bones, and 3 treasures. Every dish was delicious and I couldn't stop eating. Definitely returning soon to try more of their menu.

Great tease if you are looking for traditional Chinese North-east style dishes, the sour-sweet pork is the best I have in Bellevue，and the tofu skin with green pepper is great!
