About this business

Among the myriad tastes and aromas of Chinatown in Seattle, one can find a small eating place called Green Leaf, offering Vietnamese cuisine to more people than it can possibly seat. Word-of-mouth publicity is what brings new patrons here and the mouth-watering fare is what brings old patrons back again. Seafood, meat, vegetables and soups in the distinct Vietnamese culinary tradition are on offer. Prices are reasonable and portions sizable. It is advisable to reach early to get seats in time.

An amazing place! – This place immediately became one of my favorite Vietnamese locations! It took a few attempts to get there during a time it was open (it seemed that I'd come at a few randomly odd times when it was closed), but once in, all the other attempts seemed worth it! From great Pho, to scrumptious spring rolls and salads, everything here seems great! I love the dishware as well, with eclectic and matching styles to them! The service is great, even when every seat is packed!

Excellent food, great value and great presentation and – This is one of my favorite resturants and I've been to a lot of resturants especially in the International District. The food and presentation are amazing with prices to match. The service is usually good but can be lacking at times due to lack of experience but they've always been friendly and warm.

Don't believe the hype! – I was really excited to check this place out after reading all of the GREAT reviews. Unfortunately it did not live up to expectations. The Pho was pedestrian with tough beef and overcooked starchy noodles. And the other dishes were not much better. And to make matters worse the service was terrible. We were seated quickly and then watched as other tables were seated and orders were taken. There are some really good Vietnamese restaurants in this town, but this is just a fair one.

All the Vietnamese "mommy" food that you crave... – It's really sad that whenever I want Vietnamese food at a restaurant all that's available is "pho". Sometimes I want all those other dishes that I miss so very much - aka mommy's cooking. The best thing about this place is that if you're Vietnamese, Green Leaf has all those dishes that you wish all those other places have. They have "bun rieu" and will even give you "mam ruoc'! They have "banh xeo" (which was a little too many bean sprouts..but it's better than nothing). :)... read more

So Good!!!!!!!! – I love this restaurant-the food is cheap, the servers are always really helpful, and even though I have been here many times and tried many different things, the food is always fresh, flavorful, and clean (you don't get that bloated, "why did I eat that?!?!" feeling you sometimes get with Chinese food). I love anything involving the vermicelli noodles (the fake shrimp is good on the vegetarian option) and the lemongrass chicken is good as well. If you haven't tried it, you should definitely make a trip to t... read more

Wow!!! Wonderful and friendly – As the Stranger said in their review, you almost don't want to tell people about this place...it's that good. The owner and staff are extremely friendly and have pride in every detail of the place, from the tea mugs to the wine glasses. They are very helpful in selecting your dishes, and the food is just wonderful. The Lemongrass chicken had some definite kick to it, and the Vietnamese omlette/crepe is not to be missed. Great place, I'll be back!

Enjoyable spot – The food here is good. the service friendly and even more impressive is that all this at a reasonable price. I like the dishes I had that came with the seven courses of beef. All were great and tasty. The owner's wife even stop by to chat and help everyone feel more at home and relaxed. I enjoyed the reasonable price of wine. I'll be back.

Absolutely Delicious – It does get packed around dinner time. I had the bun bo hue, fried rice cakes and the tamarind soda. Everything was very good. I even ordered the shrimp papaya salad and tamarind dungeness crab to go. The service is outstanding.
