What People Are Saying About Indochine Asian Dining Lounge

The Owner

Indochine Asian Dining Lounge

Owner

In 1995 Ly & her family opened the first Indochine Restaurant in Federal Way. Many years and two more locations later, the tradition of tantalizing food and relaxing atmosphere continue. Opened in 2005 this restaurant is almost like a work of art. From the high cielings and dark woods along with beautiful drapery, to the brushed aluminum & brick, this is an amazing setting. The flavors of Thailand, India, Japan & France are all combined here along with a fine selection of wine and bar beverages to complete a most memorable experience. Feel free to call for reservations for two or a your next…

In Short – This long, candle-lit space exudes worldly exoticism with its dramatic decor of gleaming cherry wood tables and sleek black leather chairs. Many tables in the dining room are set around a gurgling U-shaped fountain; diners can also opt to eat in semiprivate booths or large round tables surrounded by shimmering orange curtains. The menu focuses on Southeast Asian cuisine with fusion accents, like shrimp tossed with a Thai basil pesto and served over soba noodles.

Editor's Tips

The Extras:
There's a takeout gelato counter in front open during the summer, offering flavors like lychee, coconut and peanut.
What to Drink:
The back bar has a long list of Asian-inspired specialty drinks, like a martini made with Chai tea.

Service goes the extra mile

by AmberS at Citysearch

The service at Indochine made such a great impression on me. There is always someone to greet you at the door and we are always promptly seated.

I had laryngitis when my boyfriend and I first dined here, and when I mouthed to the server that I lost my voice, she recommended I stay away from the ice water and drink some hot lemon tea with honey, which she promptly brought to the table. I was amazed at how friendly and attentive she was to how I was feeling.

When my boyfriend started to order, she recommended dishes that we could share, and her suggestions were perfect. The food was delicious!

This is definitely one of my favorite restaurants, as it always provides great atmosphere and service.

  • Pros: Great service
  • Cons: None!

Great Restaurant to impress

by AlanC at Citysearch

I have personally been to Indochine many times after got hooked on my initial visit. The first thing you will notice is unmistakable décor that oozes Asian influence. From the Thai dancer statues to Chinese bamboo umbrellas, they all tastefully decorated. Workers are all professionally dressed. It is almost like in a 5 start hotel. The design and layout of the restaurant is very unique. The water features are strategically placed to create a peaceful dining experience.

There are just multitudes of cuisines to choose from. From mouth watering Beef Rendang to refreshing Thai ice tea for the guests selection. They also provide different heat/spiciness level for those who enjoy a little more “kick” in their food. The cuisines are sort of fusion but yet very authentically traditional. They are all fresh and scrumptious. I have not had anything that is even remotely just Ok. They are all excellent.

Here are my ratings:

Food: Excellent. Many varieties and very satisfying

Service: Professional and prompt

Speed: Prompt. I don’t have to wait more than a few minutes to get what I need. My glass or water always full.

Price: A bit pricy. But worth it unless you eat there every day. Won’t leave less than $20 per person (with Tax and tips)

Ambiance: Good for any celebrations. Dining for 2 to company gathering are all suitable.

  • Pros: Everything is excellent
  • Cons: Tat pricy

Pretty good food, but..

by rich4goodfood at Citysearch

Way overpriced for average to tasty Thai food. The manager is also difficult to speak to and seemed to not care about a complant. Overall, this is another example of a style over substance place in which service takes a backseat.

  • Pros: Location, nice trendy interior
  • Cons: Way overpriced, poor service and costomer service.
