Tai Tung was Bruce Lee’s favorite Chinese restaurant in town. That’s not the only reason this place is steeped in history—it also happens to be Seattle’s oldest Chinese restaurant. Here, you’ll find nods to Bruce around the dining room, including cardboard cutouts and a memorial booth. Bruce’s favorite dish was the beef with a rich oyster sauce, and while that’s delicious (especially spooned on top of Chinese sausage fried rice), Tai Tung also has some standout kung pao shrimp, potstickers, and the best dish in the house: battered almond chicken that crunches like a heap of October leaves. Use it for weeknight takeout, use it for a business lunch, or even use it for a night out with friends, as you clink green-glinted bottles of Tsingtao (or chopsticks clutching barbecued pork).
