Came here on a Sunday. Party of two seated immediately. Service was quick! Venue is good for groups. This place reminds me of good authentic Chinese cuisine. We ordered the house special lobster, beef luc loc, and pan fried noodles. The lobster is based on market price. It was $32 per pound when we went. Smallest lobster was 3.5 lbs. They actually brought the live lobster out to show us before it was cooked! Poor guy didn't stand a chance! (Sorry don't mean to offend anyone). The lobster was fresh but a bit on the Spicy side. So if you can take the heat! This was a win win! My favorite was the beef cubes - dipped in salt pepper and lemon - sooo good over white rice. Trust. My hums and loved the pan fried noodles... crispy and fluffy. Just like me. Overall good experience. If you're ever in Westminster and craving Chinese food - they won't disappoint!!
First time here and the food is so comforting. I order teo chew seafood clay pot, sautéed Ong choy, house special pork chop, and fish with black bean. Everything that we order is very authentic and delicious. The ingredients that are using is very fresh and very flavorful. The hot jasmine tea has smooth taste and little bit of bitterness. Balance out the heavy meal. The service is fast and the waitress is very nice and attentive. The restaurant is clean but I can smell the cleaning chemicals around the dining area. Overall it's a good experience and definitely will be back!!
Hours: Mon, Wed-Sun: 11:00 AM - 9:00 PM Tuesday: Closed Came here around lunch Lunch dishes are 14$ a plate. I was craving salt and pepper pork chops hence the name "salt and pepper," but it was more SALT than anything. Overly fried and excessively salty too much fish sauce. We ordered mang cua soup but were initially brought a different soup, which was later clarified. The house special chicken and basil clams stood out as the better dishes with more balanced flavor. Although there were small hiccups. The waitstaff were attentive and responsive to our requests. Our plates and a teacups was dirty, which was gross . Coffee was average, mediocre at best, dragonfruit lemonade was not too sweet so a plus for that. Overall, an average experience with a few highlights, but some inconsistencies in seasoning, order accuracy, and cleanliness.
Food is ok. But when we asked for spicy sauce, they brought out 2 small spicy sauce, one is only oil. And the bill came out, they charged $2 for EACH PERSON, there were 4 of us, and they charged $8 for for 1 tbsp of spicy sauce and 1 tbsp oil that we couldn't eat. It's not about the money but this is a scam.
Came on a Sunday evening. Parking was easy and my party of 10 got seated immediately. Service was great quick, kind, and fast. It took me many years of coming here to finally perfect my order that everyone loved no notes. - House specials shrimp add garlic noodles 5/5 MUST if you get anything order this the shrimps are huge and this dish is so much better than lobster bc you don't have to pry it out of the shell - Honey walnut shrimp 4/5 could use more flavor I dip it in sate and soy sauce - House special fresh squid 5/5 my favorite crispy salty flavorful (you can also get noodles under this) - Fresh squid with salt and pepper 4/5 could be more flavorful but just as for more salt pepper and lemon on the side to dip it in - Pan fried whole fish I don't eat fish but ordered for the family if you like fish get it as it's always a first to be finished - Kung pao chicken 5/5 always a must so tender and flavorful - Sautéed peasprouts 5/5 needed veggies - Sateed ong choy 5/5 daily veggie intake needed and done - Pot of white rice 4/5 rice is rice it is needed for all this salty food Everyone left happy and fully highly recommend my favorite Chinese restaurant in the area.
This is our first time there and we really enjoyed the food and the service was great. Not sure why there are bad reviews on the service but we were seated promptly and the food came out fast and they check on us often if we needed anything. We really enjoyed the green beans w garlic sauce and the steam fish was fresh and delightful! Everything tasted great and we would definitely go back again !
I was brought to this spot for a celebration with close friends. There are plenty of Chinese family restaurants but I got to say this is hands down on my top 3. The taste of food is always on point. Always taste the same everytime we come here. I'm very big on having family dinners and this one right here is my new to go. Just like many others this one gets packed so get here early ! The staff members are always helpful to make sure you get everything you need. You know it's serious when you see statues outside of the restaurant ! 10/10 !
You know what they say, if the service is bad, the food is going to be good haha! And yes some of the servers were a tad rude here and there but we came for the lunch specials. Service wise, to reiterate yes they were a little rude but got our order correct. It takes them a while to get water like what some other review said and you can see some of the servers bickering and getting mad at each other too but whatever. The main point is the food and is why we initially came here. Our go to spot seafood port closed down and we've been trying to find a nearer spot to replace that. And so far it got the approval of my dad because he's the Chinese food connoisseur and he said compared to other Chinese spots, it's sweeter and has a lighter flavor and made him question if they even use MSG. But let's say the lunch special portions are worth it! And we will be back for it. Aside from that. I also judge places based off their bathrooms and it was pretty clean but I did notice that the soap dispenser was broken... and I wasn't going to dip my hands in that soap. So brings me to question them, are they washing their hands after use? Food 5/5 Service 3.5/5 Bathroom 2.5/5
Solid Chinese/Viet restaurant, complete with glass turntables and hot jasmine tea! I like this place a lot, I think it's homely and nostalgic. The servers are kind and very hardworking. Flavors are big and garlicky! But big flavors also come with a lot of sodium, so you'll be knocked out for the rest of the day lol. But it's worth it if you're willing to take the plunge :)
Not authentic canto flavors. This is definitely different from all the other capital seafoods. The taste and quality is not good. It's passable, just below average but would not return. The noodles were cooked but hard in the middle, the sprouts didn't have that garlicky flavor. In fact non of the dishes have the signature wok hei smoke. The fried rice was also just ok, felt like they didn't know how to do a proper cook on the egg or rice. The honey walnut shrimp had no sweetness, the salt and pepper squid's batter was bland and thick. No flavor in the squid and even pouring the extra salt and pepper that came with the dish, it added no flavor. Didn't give red vinegar/white pepper for the fish maw soup. We asked for chili oil and they said they ran out. Lol... what? Service was OK. No wait on a Sunday night. 100% would not return to this location.
Absolutely Terrible Service We have been wanting to try this spot FOREVER... we're regular Seafood Cove goers/ Peking Gourmet goers. Yet finally trying Capital Seafood was the biggest disappointment ever! Worst service I've ever had in my life. My son spilled a small glass of water, four staff walked by and did nothing ... no napkins... no refill... no help... yet they constantly checked on other tables. Restaurant wasn't busy, felt rather slow compared to their long lines they usually have to be seated. Yet we still waited forever for two items. You even have to pay for steamed rice per person. Seafood Cove would never.. Ordered House Special Lobster w/ Garlic Noodles, but it was overly peppery & lacked garlic & butter. Kids couldn't even eat them because it was too spicy/peppery. Sucha bummer if that's truly their house special because we love house special every where else & here wasn't even close to that buttery rich taste you usually get from house special items. Even their salt & pepper pork chop didn't hit the mark the way it does at some of our other go to spots. We had to flag someone down to ask for water, which mind you was half way through our meal before we even received any drinks.... when we finally got water, they brought only two glasses... but there was FOUR of us... so ridiculous. So we had to ask for two more. Between being ignored, getting food we didn't enjoy, and long waits, this was beyond disappointing.
One of the best Chinese restaurants in OC. Service can be slow if you come during peak times, but the 'House Special' dishes here are winners. We ordered the squid, fish and string beans lunch specials -- 3 items for $40 including a bucket of rice and hot tea (but no soup). Their House Special Squid is better than most Italian restaurant fried calamari and most Chinese restaurant salt & pepper squid. *Note* This is not the same "Capital Seafood" in Irvine or Monterey Park -- different owners, different food, different ambience entirely. Also FYI- their lobster price is $29/lb
Wanted fresh live lobster and this place had the best price per lb. To give you an idea, Kings Fish House was $67/lb, the other Capital Seafood at Irvine Spectrum was $45/lb, and this place was like $28.99/lb. So we made the drive to Garden Grove. What stood out to me over the Capital Seafood in Irvine was the much friendlier service and the 90s R&B music in the background which was cool. Got the Lobster with house special sauce, Roasted duck with steam buns ($50), and Sautéed Pea sprouts veggies. * The lobster was definitely the star but just know the sauce is very buttery so may try a lighter sauce next time. Also still needed to crack some pieces so hands got really dirty (4/5) . * The duck was unfortunately too dry and tough and skin not so crispy so I will prob skip next time. But portion was good. (3/5) * The peasprout veggies were good and had a nice crunch but needed a little more salt. (4/5) Hot Tea was smooth, seating comfy. Only thing it was freezing cold and they should prob drop the AC a few degrees. The white girl server was super nice and always checked on us. Overall good experience and will be back. read more
I've been going to Capital Seafood with my friends and family for a very long time, and after a very long hiatus, I finally got to try it again with my brother. The dishes were cooked to perfection, and if you're having that house special type of feeling alongside some really great and fresh seafood, I highly recommend the Capital Seafood restaurant, as now the son is a current owner and executive chef. Really great for the dishes overall around. I highly recommend the house special fish and the house special squid. Adding on to this, we also got an order of clams and, of course, the salt and pepper shrimp. All really delicious and it really hit the spot. 10 out of 10 would recommend, especially for a family night out or just a nice fun night with friends as well too. Service was quick and easy, and they really upped the decor in this place! read more

Came back to try this restaurant after the remodel. This was our go to place way back in the day for family gatherings. It was nice to go back to try everything. It was fantastic!!! All of our dishes were great! Perfect portions, food came out hot and steamy. Service was great! It's how I remember everything except the decor and ambience was remodeled for the better. read more

I have been coming here since their grand opening n later change of ownership. It has been always the best Chinese food now in Little Saigon after FuriwA n Seafood World went out of business they are It! So why you may ask why it's 3 stars today. 1) the bathroom lock was broken at least 15 years ago, seriously they remodeled the entire restaurant last year n still didn't replace the lock? I was tired of defending my privacy, it's time I mention this. 2) Very few places charge for credit card in fact most stopped as this turned people off, I was ok w it when they charged 2% but it's now almost 4% it's not cool at all. 3) It was freezing cold n so windy, the door was constantly being open, the restaurant was so cold as it was NEVER EVER HEATED. I was going to dine in but decided to take out not wanting to be uncomfortable n might even get sick . Shock me at least by fixing the lock n maybe 1 of 2 items changed n I will rate it 5 stars again. read more

Came here for Friendsgivings and it was a good option for big group! They were super friendly, tentative, and always making sure we were taken care of. The food came out quick, the highlights of the night were the honey walnut shrimp, stir fry veggies, and the soup! Love how they combined the tables for the 13 of us instead of doing 2 separate round tables! read more
It's been a while since we have eaten here (probably 12 years). I've been hearing about the changes and remodeling that this spot has gone through. We normally go to Seafood Cove down the street- that is usually our go to for authentic family style Chinese food. I was able to make reservations for a party of 20 for my son's 16th Birthday. The restaurant as nicely remodeled and decorated. The service as top notch & you don't get that often at these types of establishments. But this place was definitely different! We ordered so much food and I don't think we took a lot back home - which means the dishes were finished. Their house special lobster was so flavorful and delicious. I think my favorite dish out of the 6+ dishes was the House Special shrimp! Omg they were big and plump packed with so much flavor!! I think I ate most of it haha. I'd definitely come back here for sure with just my little family. It was absolutely delicious. read more
I seen a lot of mixed reviews but have been wanting to give this place a try. I went in yesterday afternoon (Saturday) and it was pretty empty. I was expecting a full house. There were only 2 other tables dining in. Throughout our meal there were people trickling in and out for takeout and a few more parties came. It's a Chinese higher end restaurant that's on the pricier side that has a huge selection of items, but I think I hear the waiters speak what sounded like Khmer. Probably Cambodian-Chinese family owned. The older sweet lady taking our order and helping us the entire time was wonderful! There was a big language barrier but bless her heart we were all trying to understand each other. Other than that she was really attentive and like a caring grandmother who takes care of you. We ordered the live house special lobster with noodles, the fried intestines, salt and pepper chicken wings, and the house special calamari. Everything was amazing I'm not sure why so many unfavorable reviews. The house special sauce complimented the lobster really good I enjoyed the flavors! The noodles were cooked perfectly and thick and bouncy how I like them. You must also get the house special calamari! I read good reviews on it and it lives up to its hype! It was deep fried but covered in the house special sauce which might be the same as the lobster sauce. They were big rings and piping hot. The salt and pepper wings were cool but nothing too crazy. They were kind of pink still inside but I'm sure they were fully cooked. I love the toppings it came with; big chunks of green onions, white onions, and Serrano peppers. The fried intestines were good but average. They were paired with pickled veggies and sweet and sour sauce. All foods were delicious we really enjoyed it! They were all perfectly cooked and the flavors all went together so well! A lot of reviews here complaining of the price but again this restaurant is more on the pricier side of a Chinese restaurant with most entrees costing about ~$22. Their portions are generous though and the quality speaks for itself. read more

Having hard time deciding between four or five stars. They do have more Chinese dishes than your typical Americanized Chinese restaurant. But their taste isn't very Cantonese or authentic. It's not that they are Americanized. I think they need to figure out their seasoning and details better. For example the soup is too sweet. Dishes are too salty and sweet. Tea wasn't hot enough so it quickly became lukewarm. I've been here before they closed up during the pandemic and the food was really good back then. Other than that, the interior has brightened up a bit. Food quantity and prices are decent too. read more

The food here is amazing! This is the only spot I trust for com phan family style! I was so taken back of how delicious the house special intestines was! Ugh I can order two orders of that. We ordered: House special lobster 3lb House special fish Salt & pepper pork chop House special intestines House special scallop Pea sprouts Honey walnut shrimp Viet hot & sour soup Salt & pepper crab Salty fish fried rice All I got to say everything was on point! Would definitely order it every time! 10/10 this place is an Orange County institution. Service was great too! read more
This was our first visit. Waiting for a table took approximately 35 minutes, but we did arrive at peak time on Labor Day. The restaurant specializes in DELICIOUS seafood-focused Chinese entrees and Asian small plates. The location offers ample free parking, including designated disabled parking spaces near the entrance, making it convenient for those with disabled parking placard permits. The staff was busy, but our server attended to our needs promptly without delay or requiring us to ask for assistance. Ambiance was tranquil and enjoyable! Looking forward to visiting this restaurant again!!! read more

This place is packed on Sunday dinner. Also it's a place where a lot of families come to celebration bdays. We waited for 20mins for table for 3, and 10mins to order. The foods came out one dish at a time, with 10-15mins gap. We ordered 4 dishes and by the time we down with dish one, we have to wait 5mins for the next and so forth. They are popular with lobsters since 90% of tables have lobster (we didn't) and they came out fast....The foods are good, nice portion, and tasty. Service is great, friendly and helpful...wish the foods can come out faster. The place is a typical Chinese style, just more of modern side and clean and airy. Prices wise are not bad, very reasonable. Overall, beside slow turnaround, very good. read more

This is the classic Orange County Chinese seafood restaurant you come to for all the special occasions. My retired lawyer dad has been bringing his clients here since they first opened, and it's still just as good today. The food is bold, rich, and full of flavor. Our family favorites are the House Special Lobster with Garlic Noodles, Shaken Beef, Honey Walnut Shrimp, Salt and Pepper Shrimp, Crispy Fillet Fish, and Green Beans. The service is good, but you do have to flag them down sometimes since it's always busy and packed. Once they come, they're fast and efficient. The restaurant still has that classic look, which I love, but it could use a little attention in keeping the space tidier and supplies out of sight. The tables, though, are always clean and ready. It's one of those places that becomes part of your family story. Every gathering here turns into a core memory. read more

Worst experience I've ever had. No rice. Poor service. No wonder they shut down before. Keep it up and it'll shut down again. Do yourself a favor and go to Seafood Cove down the street. Better price. Better service. Better food. And most importantly they have rice. read more
Solid Chinese food spot! We ordered the Mongolian beef, honey walnut shrimp, salt and pepper pork ribs and the seafood hot pot (Canh). All dishes were delish! Loved how the hot pot soup was flavored - both sour and umami notes. I also loved the sauce the salt and pepper pork ribs came with- had garlic and jalapeños! Honey walnut shrimp was ok, had too much batter. And lastly Mongolian beef has a sweet satay type of sauce but overall pretty good! I would go here again. read more

I needed something quick and yummy and since I was passing Capital seafood and usually love their food I decided to call in and order a house special fried rice. It was 8:30pm and they close at 9pm so I don't know if that had anything to do with the bad quality. The fried rice was soaked in oil and so greasy that it had to be thrown out. $17 down the drain. So disappointed because I usually love the food here read more

We came here to celebrate Chinese New Year and enjoyed a delicious feast, but unfortunately, the service didn't quite match up. The restaurant was packed with large groups, and it was clear they were understaffed--servers were rushing around, and getting assistance took quite a while. That said, the food was great, and we could tell they were doing their best given how busy it was. We might give this place another try after the CNY rush to see if the experience is better when things aren't so hectic. Would recommend coming during a less busy time if you want a more relaxed dining experience! read more

I love coming here for my Vietnamese / Chinese fix. All the dishes are comforting and anything house special is delicious. My go to orders are the Kung pao chicken, house special shrimp or calamari, whole fried fish and canh chua. Sautéed pea sprouts are good too I just don't think the price is that worth it. If you pay cash, it's a few dollars cheaper. I never had to wait for dinner before. read more
We came for a Lunar New Year dinner and it was a good experience. We had a reservation, so that helps bypass the wait. The ambiance is clean and typical. The service was friendly and a little slower than usual, but they gave us a heads up it would be a little slower since it was busy. The food was just okay. The portions seemed smaller than other restaurants. The clams hardly had any clams, the soup was noticeably smaller. There were four of us and all the dishes were almost empty with each of us just having one normal sized serving. The taste of the food was good, yet nothing special. The most flavorful was the E-mein and House special fish filet. read more
