Ten Seconds Yunnan Rice Noodles / Nai Brother Chinese Sauerkraut Fish

One of the best value meals you can find in Seattle. For a group of 5 (that wasn’t starving), we ordered 3 Ox bone soup sets (R1), sauerkraut fish, and two sides: spicy pig ears + spicy cucumbers, and the total only came out to only $15pp pre-tip… I’m in disbelief! Service was excellent. Our water cups were never left empty, even after we lingered after the bill was paid. The server informed us that we would get a free coconut dessert if we spent over $70 and we were just a couple dollars short, so we added a side. We got the mango coconut dessert which was so refreshing! The food was so good, I’d definitely come back! They also have FREE PARKING in the lot next to them (be sure to park in their designated stalls and let the servers know your license plate to not get towed).

The rice noodles here are absolutely delicious and authentic! The service is friendly, and the dishes come out very quickly. The grilled fish is also amazing — flavorful and perfectly cooked. Everything was just perfect! The restaurant is very clean, there’s convenient parking right next, and they even offer tasty desserts. Highly recommend this place — whether you just want a quick meal or a nice sit-down dinner with friends, it’s a great choice!

The food was okay, but the service staff were unprofessional. I ordered the lunch set (a main dish + a side). I chose the popcorn chicken as my side, but the staff upgraded it to a larger portion and charged it as an à la carte item—without confirming with me at all. They also didn’t show me the bill before checkout. I only realized after paying and looking at the receipt that they had automatically upsized my side. There were three of us, and we all insist that we ordered the side included in the set—we never asked to upgrade it. So I feel like I got ripped off. Next time you come here to eat, please make sure to double-check your order details with the staff.

Came to try out their new dish. Personally recommend this way more than the Japanese ramen stores. I got the $12.99 pork bone broth with addition of corn, beef, and vegetables (included) with my friends.

Our visit to Seattle was very rainy and cold. This place did not disappoint. All our meals were delicious. The soup was amazing and tasty. It’s definitely good for sharing. Make sure you park in their designated area so you’re not looking for a parking space like we did. Just ask them first before parking anywhere.

Driving through the area and stopped here because they are amongst the few restaurants downtown that offer free reserved parking spaces. I did not have very high expectations, and I was absolutely blown away by their offering. I had Beef & Tripe Dry Rice Noodle and it was spectacular. The portions were generous, especially the meat, and the food was delicious. It had just the right amount of heat, and the fried peanuts added a delightful crunch. I didn't expect them to have spicy crayfish on the menu, and upon seeing it I knew I had to try it. It was deliciously spicy, pleasantly numbing and tasted very authentic. The crayfish were on the small side and didn't have much meat on them, which is unfortunate. However overall this restaurant is very underrated and I highly recommend coming here to give their food a try!

Came on a workday for lunch and has a few groups of guests. Plenty of parking space on their designated parking spots next to the building. Grilled fish (pickled flavor) was great. It was marked spicy but actually very mild. Not too salty either. Lots of veggies. We also ordered their classic rice noodle. For a limited time they offer a free coconut desert with the grilled fish order. Tastes great too! Just perfectly sweet and authentic flavor. I’d come back more often.

Tasty and great price only 12.99! Got the thing at the top of menu, crossing bridge noodle? , it came with beef in the soup. Broth was great. You add in all the noodles and other things on the side to the broth. I didn’t use it but I saw they have the parking lot out front which is great. And didn’t seem too full. Wasn’t busy went I went, a lot of seating and seemed modern looking and clean. Server seemed good. Good deal on a meal.

Food was good for the price imo Also came with white rice without ordering it. Nice deal for amount of food you get.

=== Overall === Good place to hang out with friends & good value. === Food === My friends ate the Sauerkraut fish next to me while I got the ten seconds Yunnan rice noodle set for under $15. I've had the same thing multiple times at different locations and never been disappointed. It felt good and soothing, would recommend. Sauerkraut fish comes with a Yeti coconut dessert. === Service === Service was pretty friendly and efficient. When you come here they ask if you parked on the side- if you did, make sure you write down your car license plate and model on their clipboard, they seem serious about towing people who aren't properly parked. === Ambiance === The area you're in is a little sus but the inside is clean and peaceful, the workers are professional and efficient. We walked in as a huge party of like 7 people and had no problem.

Sooo good! I love the noodles here it's always served quickly and the service is friendly as well :) I recommend their calamari it's delicious and so crispy

Parking here requires extreme caution. Triple-check you're in the exact correct stall, or better yet, park on the street or Uber and skip the stress entirely. Frankly speaking it's probably not worth the Uber. I had a valid dated parking permit from the neighboring restaurant (Chengdu Memory) in apparently Ten Second's stall and was (as judged by the court) illegally towed for nearly $500. I contested in court, and the judge ruled the tow and signage non-compliant with WA state law and ordered a full refund + court fees. This restaurant appears to have a strained relationship with their neighboring restaurant, so the staff here will not try to find you and ask you to move the car--instead they call the tow truck immediately. The owner has admitted to me they have accidentally towed their own customers in the past. As seen in other one star reviews it's been a pattern for quite a while. Hope management figures out their beef with their neighbor so others don't go through the same ordeal. 警告一下，这里停车必须万分小心！容易被拖车，一定再三确认自己停在正确车位，或者直接街趴或者打Uber省心。是不是值得打Uber的钱就自行判断了。 第一次去，不小心停到十秒到的车位上了，车里放着隔壁蓉城老火锅的停车许可，被拖了，花了差不多500刀拿车。我去法院打官司，法官认定拖车违反州法，判全额退款+庭审费。 这两家店的关系好像很僵，所以他们员工根本不会去找你让你挪车而是直接叫拖车。十秒到的店员在电话上跟我说过，他们连自己顾客的车都拖错过。Yelp上的评论也能看出来他们干这种事不是一天两天了。 希望老板早点认识到问题，跟友商把梁子解了，别再拿客人出气。

Stopped in for a quick bite in what may be the longest restaurant name I've come across (the sign outside reads "Ten Seconds Yunnan Rice Noodles / Nai Brother Chinese Sauerkraut Fish"). I tried the Beef Fried Rice and the Popcorn Chicken Dry Rice Noodle. The fried rice was a little on the bland side, but the popcorn chicken noodles was really satisfying. Service was friendly and efficient -- food came out quickly. What caught my attention, though, was their specialty: the Yunnan-style rice noodle soup. They serve it as an interactive meal -- you get a bowl of broth and a dozen or so small side plates of meats, veggies, and noodles, all meant to be added in yourself. Definitely an experience I'll be coming back to try next time!

The rice noodle is pretty good. But got a parking ticket for $112. While we 3 people just spent $115 in the restaurant. Will never back here again, the Bellevue location is better, at least easy and free parking.

Lunch special is such a great deal! For the lunch special I got a fish dish and it comes with a soda and an appetizer. Picked the broth first then the type of fish. I had Golden Pickle Sauerkraut with the Crisp Grass Carp and Popcorn Chicken. Lunch special is only $19.99 and the price changes depends on the add-on to your dish or if you chosen the expensive fish. Also got the Dry Pot FrogLeg, it was definitely spicy but the good kind of spicy. What else is in it? We'll, there's cucumbers, onions, bell pepper, crisp potatoes, and cilantro. The service at the restaurant was pretty solid considering the circumstances. Our waitress was handling at least seven other tables on her own, which is a tough task for anyone. Despite being so busy, she still managed to get our order in quickly, and the kitchen had the food out in a reasonable amount of time. She did forget our soda, but honestly, given how much she had on her plate, it's understandable. Overall, she was doing her best under pressure, and it showed. Would definitely come back in the future to try other dishes.

I usually comes here during rainy days for their tomato soup rice noodles as my comfort food and it's working haha.

This was a nice surprise in Seattle Chinatown. The name says Yun Nan noodles which was kinda misleading. The restaurant also serves grilled fish and fish hotpot. We tried their grilled fish - 2 pounds for $55. The fish was tender, nearly boneless and very tasty. I haven't had live fish for a long while so this was a nice surprise. The fish pot also came with a variety of veggies including napa, bean curd, mushrooms and potatoes. $55 also came with a complimentary coconut jelly jar which was great value. Worth the visit for sure!

The food is very delicious and fresh. The server was very nice, friendly, and helpful. Service was fast and the place felt comfortable. I really enjoyed my meal and will definitely come back again.

Best Asian cuisine we have had in Seattle yet! Seating is comfortable. There are so many authentic yunnan favorites. Food arrived quickly and was so delicately prepared. If you like spicy seafood noodles, try A14 "Spicy Fish Rice Noodles" with Basa Fish. My daughter had A22 popcorn chicken with dry noodles and loved it. Mango dessert with Pamelo completes the experience. Would definitely come again!

Ten Seconds is one of my favorite places to go for a meal in CID! Their service is excellent and their food is predictably great. I usually get the beef brisket rice noodle soup, which is one huge pot of soup with noodles, beef brisket, and other toppings arranged on the side. When you're ready to eat, you can pour in any amount of the toppings! I love putting the beef brisket into the soup early to give it tons of flavor. I also think this dish is the best bang for your buck, the portion is so big that I have trouble finishing it in one go. I've also gotten the Beef and Beef Tripe Dry Noodles, which is also great. FYI it comes with peanuts which is not mentioned on the menu. The perk is that it comes with a free soft drink! As mentioned before, the service is awesome. We have always gotten complementary red bean sago soup and a lemon chia drink as dessert. They also have a couple of free parking spots right next to the shop, which I always forget about! Will definitely be coming back.

I really love this place. The staff is helpful and the food is GREAT - we come here at least once a week and enjoy really great food.

Service was great, food was good! The noodle soups were flavorful and hot. Though, I really don't understand the idea of separating all the ingredients and you just end up dumping all of it in the soup? I guess you have the option to put as little or as much of a certain ingredient in your bowl. But there are other noodle soup options where there is no option to have all the ingredients on small dishes! The fish soup was delicious. It's quite large so there's definitely leftovers. The server was really nice, he answered my parents' million questions and was patient. They gave customer a refreshing juice at the end! We came on a Tuesday around dinner, so it was empty with only 1-2 tables, but later more customers came filtering in. Place was clean and bigger than I thought.

Came here with a group of ten for dinner on a Wednesday night. I got the A3, beef brisket noodle with pork broth, it was delicious and came with a lot of sides you put in the soup. We also had the popcorn chicken appetizer which was super tasty. My husband had the dry noodles with popcorn chicken which had a nice numbing spice flavor. Service was quick although they missed one person's order so it was delayed. The ube coconut dessert was nice and refreshing too.

I ordered for pick up. I tried their beef and tripe combo dry noodle and pig ears as a side dish. They provide a large portion of the noodles. The dish was flavorful. I really like the braised tripe. It also included pickled vegetables which helps change the flavor. The pig ears are crunchy and spicy which I enjoy. Would love to come back and try other dishes.

Such good food and reasonably priced!! It takes one or two tries before you get addicted! All the appetizers are legit and delicious! The grilled fish dishes are so fresh and phenomenal tasting best to share with 3 or more people! We tried most of the noodle flavors and the favorite is the golden sour noodles dish. We ask for slightly less spice. Without that it's too spicy to be enjoyable. The kitchen will make the spice level accommodation even if some new servers don't know. The first time I was thrown off by the chicken wing but it's braised and delicious!

Don't go to this restaurant!!! We oreder 3 bowls of rice but all of the rice are extremely dry. So we requested the waitress to exchange another one for us. Suddenly, the manager came to our table and yelled at us. I said "you don't have to scream out and yell at us. She is very rude. Then she left and called 911 on us. Is it crazy??? Her daughter is working in the restaurant as a waitress. She told us "the manager is her mom and her mom's name is Susan."

Absolutely amazing flavor for the sauerkraut hot pot with beef. So much meat they never skimp out on the portion. I crave it at least once a month, and their servers are always super nice!

The flavor is good overall but the portion of the protein is very small for the price. Only a few slices of beef and 1 chicken wing. I'd appreciate more protein.

Just really really good sauerkraut beef with rice. They give you so much beef and quite a bit and variety of tofu. The servers are always really nice and attentive. I keep coming back!

A welcome addition to CID! My husband and I share the fish sauerkraut hotpot and added rice noodles. When our hotpot came, I added the rice noodles to the broth and it was perfect! It comes with a bowl of rice but we just took that home. We would def come again! There is 3 spots for free parking to the lot next door.

good food good service like the ambience. The stuff I a bit spicy though. Would come back.

First time eating here. We tried the Mala spicy live fish. It was super tender and delicious. The waiter explained items on the menu throughly and made recommendations. Water was filled often. There was complimentary dessert. The interior was nice and clean. We really enjoyed the food and will be coming back to try other items on the menu. There is free parking in the lot next to the restaurant.

I have no idea what I ordered. Service was excellent, but ended up with a super-hot booking soup with 1/2 chicken on bone it bottom of pot. It was overpriced. But I still have no idea what I ordered.

So happy to see that they've opened a location Seattle side! I've been going to the Bellevue location for awhile now- it's by far my favorite noodle place! I'm happy that the quality is consistent. My go to is either the regular pork bone broth (crossing bridge noodles) or the tomato broth with fish - it's always a 10/10 generally the one dish is more than enough food but if you've got a really good appetite or have friends to share with, I recommend the popcorn chicken or seaweed. Restaurant and bathroom is clean Service may be underwhelming to some people but the staff are nice and it's not hard to wave someone down.

I'd previously been to the location in Bellevue, but recently tried the location in ID as well (as a tip they'll validate your parking if you park in the lot next door)! Just as it was in Bellevue, they have a few broth options and different combos to build out your soup. You can either get all the trimmings on the side or already put inside (which, I prefer to have them do it as otherwise you have to wait for some components to cook in the bowl). The menu seems larger and more complicated than it was previously which I'm not a fan of, but the service was great and the food was tasty (and buy 2 get 1 soups when we went, does it get any better?) so it's hard not to recommend it!

Service was terrible and food was underwhelming. The owner is spiteful and will have your car towed if it's in the wrong space. Even if it's within an hour of closing on a Sunday. Had five cars towed in a single night.

I ordered tomato beef noodles and my husband ordered yunaan chicken ~ both tastey and delicious! Service was very good + restaurant is modern, clean.

I've been here 2 times with my friend. The first time we've gotten a lunch special, which is an individual hot pot that comes with a side and a drink. We got the sauerkraut hot pot with beef, spicy cucumbers, and cola! Beware, it says Pepsi on the menu in English but the Chinese is Coke and what they give you is Coca Cola. The second time we split a lunch special again, this time trying the tofu mushroom base with fish, and pork gyoza and sprite. It costs $20 and it is available weekdays 11-3. It can feed both me and my friend and we were very full after, so I'd say it's a great deal! $10 per person for a good filling meal!!! Henry a server is always nice and remembered us because we ordered 3 servings of eggs as it was so yummy lol. The space is clean, bathrooms are very clean and spacious. Overall will come back! Love love love!

A good noodle restaurant in the ID! We got the sauerkraut fish noodle soup and it was everything I wanted. This is one of my favorite foods so I'm glad to have a reliable place close to me. The portion is big enough to feed 2-3 people. On the other hand, the popcorn pork was dry.

Parked here accidentally going to Chengdu and they towed car. Ive seen Ten seconds customers and people park in Chengdu spot as well . Sadly Ten seconds called the tow provider to tow me . They were rude when i confronted them,I know it was our mistake but they could've easily walked next door to advise us to move. Now paying $600 to get my car out.

Came two more times to try different flavors, both are great. Henry is wonderful and he is always so kind and helpful. We really enjoyed dining here, will definitely come again and try other items;)

Today me and my friends went to this restaurant I very like the new item spicy crawfish' is tasty yummy ,restaurant very clean service is fantastic and they have a new special for July 4,and we will definitely be back on July 4

Decent for a quick noodle fix. Register your car when parked in the lot next to store, park where the indicated reserved signs. Once ordered, food comes out quiet quickly.

Food are good but waiter don't seem to care about anything and never come check on you even when customer drop a bowl of sauce on the ground nobody come clean it up

Impeccable.The best hot pot i have ever had。Also can hear the sizzle of the soup. I would come back again with my family.Because of the grate service and nice food。Also they have fish hot pot. I would like to try next time.

Was back in the area and this place strikes again. They had just released new recipes for their live fish. Fish is super tender, meat comes right off the bone. I believe they fry it first, drizzle it in their special sauce, and then bake it. Lots of steps so the flavor definitely marinated in. They come with base ingredients but you can always add more from the menu. Averages around $50-60 for one, slightly cheaper than what you can get elsewhere. The crab dry pot is also amazing. You get the whole crab, some potatoes, and lotus, and it really just opens up your appetite. Definitely get some rice for this, it can be a little spicy. Everything is made with care and you could totally just tell from how much work they take to set the plate.

Traditional yet modern - a really unique experience in International District! Worth trying multiple soup bases if possible - the bone broth and fish hot pot (with numbing spice) are both well worth it. Can be modified to be less spicy, too! Finish it off with the sago dessert.

Found this spot when I was craving noodles and ended up returning the next day to try the bubble waffle and tea. Everything was tasty and exactly what I was looking for. The noodle soup was flavorful and perfect for a cold rainy day, plus the presentation was fun and they didn't skimp on the ingredients! The bubble waffle with pork floss was awesome too.

Be careful! They charge you 18% mandatory service fee before tip! And they expect you to tip more! Never gonna go again and will make sure friends and families know that as well.

Decided to give this place a try but I was very disappointed. It was a waste of money. Service was terrible. it was hard to find parking and they would toll your car if you don't park it at the correct location. Definitely did not work the $500 dollars tolling fee.

Very delicious food that brought me back to visits to China! Quick and kind service as well

Excellent food and noodles. They are firm, delicious and very tasteful. Authentic taste and excellent customer service with great side dishes to pair along with it. Well worth the money and time spent. The staff were friendly and cordial, overall excellent experience.

This was my first time visiting this restaurant and it looks clean. When I said I could eat mildly spicy, the waitress recommended some dishes to me based on my preferences. I chose the kimchi rice noodles, which had lots of toppings. It tastes good and not too spicy. I would consider bringing my family. The price is reasonable.

Food and service were underwhelming. With all the other noodle food options in International district i wouldnt even bother.

Their meals have lunch meat in them. It's yucky and unhealthy. My kids think they smell and taste like dog food. Some people may like them but for those who don't, I suggested to allow switch them out. But the cook said they won't allow it. $3 tofu for $3 lunch meat needs to add extra money. I simply asked them to take lunch meat out. It doesn't make sense. I suggest the owner reconsider and offer the options that do not include lunch meat. I asked this a couple of months ago to a waitress when I ate here there first time and she said next time I can make the request. They probably don't care what I said. I am suggesting it here.

The servers were very inviting and we were seated almost immediately. There was a good selection noodle dishes with many different variations. Provided a very hearty meal. Would definitely come back again.
