Tian Fu has a reputation of being one of the best Chinese restaurants in the area. Their menu is exhaustively authentic. Bring a lot of friends and suffer together. The phone QR code menu makes it easy to order for everyone.

It was our first time to visit, lunch time on a weekend. Not too many people. We were seated in a timely manner. Service was great, waitress and food servers were very courteous and friendly. Also, very accommodating when we asked about food spiciness level. Menu a variety of food choices that would cater for customer’s preference but since this is more of a Sichuan cuisine, we should probably not try to adjust the food spiciness just to fit with our tolerance. Food overall is okay, just probably not too happy with the twice-cooked pork, there was an after taste to it. But then again to be fair we have asked for the non-spicy version. Parking over RTC park and ride is fine; half of the spaces reserved for permit holders and the half are free and available on a first come, first served basis.

We had dinner here on a weekday evening and found the restaurant nearly empty. It was quiet and spacious, creating a relaxing atmosphere. The Sichuan-style food was delicious, and the waitress was very kind, even helping us pack our leftovers. Overall, a great dining experience!

Went there around 6 o’clock on Sunday. There were not many people and we didn’t have to wait too long. It was an authentic Sichuan taste. Many Chinese restaurants in the United States have lost their original Chinese taste. The waiter also thoughtfully provided a mobile phone holder and asked the lady if she wanted hot water. Will definitely come back.

Really great and authentic food. The Dan Dan noodles and Sichuan wonton are amazing

This is our second time back at this restaurant and it will likely become one of our favorites. The taste is so authentic and remeniciant of the 10 years my parents spent living in Szechuan. The Manager Stacy is very professional and catered to any seasoning changes suggested to make the dish better tasting. The food is well proportioned and spicy enough to make my palate tingle and my nose run Highly recommend anyone who loves authentic szechuan flavor cuisine to try this restaurant !!!

Food wasn’t bad, atmosphere is nice and chill. Cumin lamb needed way more lamb. For $20 you get a plate that looks impressive but doesn’t have much meat at all – it’s all cilantro and onion. That is my only complaint. I would come back and try their other dishes. But this place is definitely on the pricier side of chinese food.

Had a fantastic lunch experience here. The food is excellent and it took 12 minutes (!!) To get our food. It tasted great and I can’t wait to go back. At least at the Redmond location, I don’t have to worry about someone stealing my catalytic converter. The management here is also super polite and attentive. Aces all around!

TL;DR: Tian Fu Redmond is about as good/bad as the Northgate one. Simple cooking mistakes make me want to eat elsewhere.
Tian Fu isn’t bad, but it’s not good, either. There are so many great Sichuan restaurants around the Eastside that it’s hard to justify eating at a place that can’t even make rice properly. Add in over-salted laziji and under-seasoned vegetables and this is the second time I’ve had a mediocre dining experience at a Tian Fu.
The staff were nice enough. The restaurant was clean. And the decor was pleasant. But it always feels so impersonal ordering from a website. And the ingredients didn’t impress.
So it’s not that they make horrible food, it’s edible, but there’s so much room for improvement that I can’t even justify 3-stars.
I just don’t enjoy what Tian Fu offers. I can get the same, made better, elsewhere.

Tian Fu is hands-down the best Chinese restaurant in town and my absolute favorite for authentic, flavor-packed Sichuan cuisine. From the moment you walk in, the tantalizing aromas of spices and sauces let you know you’re in for a treat. The dan dan noodles are addictively savory, while the fish fragrant eggplant packs the perfect punch of heat and sourness. But the real stars are the dry pot dishes – hearty proteins and veggies cooked tableside in a sizzling blend of mouth-numbing peppercorns and chili oil. Each bite delivers an explosion of bold, complex flavors. Excellent vegetarian options too. Beyond the phenomenal food, the warm service completes the experience. Tian Fu simply can’t be beaten for delicious, spirit-tingling Sichuan specialties. Highly recommended!
