12 Moons Asian Bistro

Oof. This was...not good. For a place with such an upscale aesthetic and live music, I don't think we've ever been as sorely disappointed as we were during our meal at 12 Moons. Ostensibly an upper-crust hodgepodge of Asian classics, it's really just proof of the adage that you should never order seafood from a place this far inland.For starters, I wasn't feeling well, so I only ordered a bowl of the miso soup for myself; and yet it was my wife who ended up suffering the most. Her order of Mongolian Beef came with dangerously undercooked beef that was stringy and gristly, and to top if all off (well, bottom it off), there was a long hair (that wasn't hers) at the bottom. She ended up picking around the meat and just eating the veggies, which were fine.Unsatisfied, she ordered a spicy tuna hand roll which, even upon arrival, was unappetizing in its appearance: it looked like someone had topped it with a scoop of wet cat food, and sadly, it tasted like it as well. She couldn't finish it. There was also a $15 uni nigiri that was shared between us, as neither of us had had it before, and wanted to give it a shot (before we'd realized how bad everything else was here): it ended up tasting like buttery chlorine which, hey, that may be just how uni is, but given the circumstances, I suspect that is not the case.Big props to our server Lisa, who was wonderful, and the only reason (other than the delicious complimentary taro chips) that this review is 2-stars instead of one. Otherwise, in the words of my wife, this was "the worst meal" she had ever had. We wouldn't eat here again, even if you promised us a jackpot pull on a slot machine outside.

Combo of Japanese Chinese Vietnamese and Korean. They seem to do it all well. 12 buck oxtail soup and 6 for bok choy is is a screaming deal. The taroChips are super addicting.. more than any tortilla chip. Usually a wait to get in.. best Chinese east of Bellevue

I was on the way home from suncadia when I realized how hungry I was and wanted to stop off somewhere after getting through the pass. I decided to go to the casino and find a restaurant option. I chose 12 moons for the sushi. There was no wait, it was about 5:30pm on a Friday. I was greeted promptly by the waiter, Angel. They brought out a basket of taro chips which were soooo good! I've never had it before and thought it was a fun and unique snack. I ordered the Yuzu mule which was AMAZING! For food I ordered the miso soup, yellowfin nigiri and the Las Vegas role. The miso soup was soooo yummy and I loved the mushrooms and fresh tofu they put in there. The sushi plate presentation was beautiful and it tasted fantastic. Very fresh. The real stars were the staff. Multiple staff members checked in regularly making sure that I was all taken care of. I feel that it was moderately priced. I paid about $56 before tip for the Las Vegas roll, miso soup, 2 yuzu mules and yellowfin nigiri. I left incredibly full and happy. Will definitely be back !

Underrated restaurant. This place is awesome. Food: is actually delicious! I wasn't expecting this in a casino, but their Langzhou noodles are the best I've had in Seattle. It was recommended to us by a friend. Very nice sour tangy salty umami spicy flavor with tender oxtail and noodles. It's like a burst of flavor in your mouth. I think it's a must have here. We also tried our hand at the sushi and was pleasantly surprised at its quality and freshness. The quality matches its price. They also serve taro chips which are delicious. Ambiance: classy and beautiful. I wasn't expecting this little escape from the hustle and bustle of the main casino floors. So when we walked in to a peaceful beautiful setting with views of the trees and mountains in the Snoqualmie area, we felt at peace. It's beautiful and spacious inside. Service: we went at opening time after playing in the casino. They sat us pretty fast and Kimberly served us. She was very attentive, nice, and gave us nice recommendations on our food. We thought it'd take a while to get our food based on some reviews but instead the food came out very fast. Thanks Kimberly! All in all - I wasn't expecting this place to be this good. Despite the menu having a large variety of Asian foods, the food hit the mark. When you're in the casino and you need a little break from everything outside, this is a great place to escape to. I'm coming back!

Not worth your time or money.This restaurant is a testament to inefficiency. They have 3 people working the 'hostess' station; yet they claim to be 'short staffed.' At least one of the 3 at the hostess station didn't appear to be doing ANYTHING. Just standing around, occasionally walking through the restaurant.After a 35-minute wait to be seated, our food was underwhelming. Steamed rice was like a bowl of mush, more resembling oatmeal than steamed rice.The cucumber Thai salad came in a ridiculously sized portion - like for a child. The house salad with soy vinaigrette had too much dressing. The gyoza were like miniature samples, something they'd hand you at Costco to try.The sushi was good - it was really the only thing I'd come back for. But to come back, you navigate to navigate a smoke-filled casino, wait an inordinately long amount of time for a table, then realize that only your sushi order would be decent.Our server seemed shocked that we left so much food on the table and didn't want any boxes.Guess she hasn't eaten there.

SNOQUALMIE CASINO ASIAN FARE. We love sushi. So, we asked to be seated at the sushi bar. The place seemed well appointed, and there was a short wait to be seated. The ambiance appeared modern and pleasant with dimmed romantic lighting in this spacious restaurant with many tables and the sushi bar. We ordered some drinks and had a look at the menu. Since we were at the sushi bar, we thought the omakase (chef's choice) would be fun. We soon realized that the chefs behind the bar did not service those sitting at the bar but were instead filling orders for the entire restaurant. Thus, there was no sushi bar experience where you interact with the sushi chef, let alone an actual omakase experience where the chef makes the sushi in front of you and serves you one by one. Here you are given a plate with a variety of sushi items brought to you by the waitress. If you want to learn more about what a real omakase experience is, see my review of Sushi Zoe in NYC. For west coasters there is also one in LA and I recommend it highly. As for this place, both food and service were mediocre. Of course you are trapped in the casino as there are no other restaurants within walking distance EXCEPT for those at the casino. So, feels like 3 stars. So 3 stars then. Cheers!

I came here one time with some friends. We just wanted to try it out. We had never been here before. Honestly the apps were pretty good and the service was great as well but the actual main course was honestly horrible. I definitely recommend the appetizers and even some of the drinks, but if you're looking to fill up on some good food, this is definitely not the place

Good happy hour in the Casino, the HR selection is a bit sparse but the food is delicious. The HR drink selection is limited but again a good deal. The dinner menu is extensive we have enjoyed the ramen, Chow Fung, shrimp tempura roll and Mongolian beef. We will be back to try more rolls and some of the spicy dishes. We have been here twice and each time the service has been top notch, even when it's very busy the bartender and wait staff are fantastic. The restaurant is a nice place to unwind after some hectic gambling. Take a break and have some dinner at 12 Moons

It has a lovely ambiance, with the dimmed lighting, live music and a gorgeous view of the mountains. It would've been perfect if the noise level was quieter, it was difficult to hear. Our server was amazing, very attentive to details. The only complaint that I have about service is the extended wait time. We put our name down at 6:20pm and they said it'll be about 40 minutes. Checked in at 7pm and see where we are at the queue and they said it would be another 20 minutes. Finally, we got sat down and order by 7:30pm, it took them another 30-35 minutes to get all of our food out. If you're in a hurry and/or hungry, I would recommend going somewhere else, the food is not worth the wait. The only dish that I enjoyed was the shoyu ramen. They give you three thick pieces of pork belly and the overall flavor is great. I would not recommend ordering the katsu Don, the fried pork wasn't juicy (yet not dry) and the batter has lost its crisp by the time it came out - it's probably because they drizzled the sauce over the pork instead of putting it on the side. The lemon grass chicken is also a no go. There's no lemon grass flavor at all, it's literally just fried chicken wings with sweet chili sauce.

The food was ok. Typical diner food. Typical older diner, could use some brightening up.Both waitress's were flat out rude, as well as the owner. Horrible service on a non-busy week day with very few customers. We will not ever be returning.
