    The clams! I ate almost the whole dish by myself hahaha
    Jamie Y.

    Food: we got the fried rice, mala spicy crab, the crawfish noodles, the sautéed cabbage, the egg yolk crab, the clams, and the passion fruit drink. Everything we got was so fresh and delicious! You know the chef really cares about the quality of food and that's so important when you're eating seafood. The mala spicy crab was the star of the show if you like spicy. The numbing spice was addictive and spicy! I really loved the egg yolk crab if you don't like spicy. My husband's favorite things were the egg yolk crab and the fried rice. He said it was on the of the best fried rices he's had. He even encouraged me to ask for the recipe from the chef. Hahaha. Needless to say we will be back for the food! Service: We got waited on by two lovely ladies. They were so sweet and super attentive. The staff helped us with some suggestions. The menu is in Chinese and I'm not the best with reading Chinese. Ambiance: The restaurant has a small amount of tables. They do a lot of take out but we dined in. The tables were clean and minimalistic. It's a casual dining restaurant where people eat family style. It's a restaurant where you eat with your hands. They provide gloves so your hands don't get spicy so keep that in mind. I really enjoyed the atmosphere, it reminded me of eating seafood in Asia without the long flight. Tldr; I would recommend this place. I will be bringing my friends here. I am a stickler for quality and I am willing to pay for freshness. I still crave the crab, clams, and fried rice. So so good. Trust me!

    dry pot crab

    Ordered the dry pot crab from here for the first time for take out. The crab was so delicious and spicy, seriously, I'm craving it as I type this The service was quick and friendly. The decor inside is very aesthetic too, I highly recommend eating here!

    Crawfish fried egg ramen

    Best seafood place in LA. Must try the spicy blue crab and egg yolk crab. Crab fried rice and crawfish noodle are must orders!

    Crawfish instant noodle
    Eris H.

    It's very authentic, I can't eat too spicy, so we ordered mild. it's just the perfect level of spiciness for me, the service is friendly and ambiance is quiet. All dishes served within 10 mins, pretty fast, the portion is large, I love this crayfish instant noodles, it's so much that two people can't finish it. Spicy crawfish is really fresh, the sweet shrimp is sweet.

    Love the marinate shrimp!
    Icy Z.

    incredible dining experience!The food was amazingly flavorful and delicious, leaving my taste buds truly satisfied. Not only that, but the portions were huge, making it a great value for money. The seafood dishes were a particular highlight, bursting with rich flavors and expertly prepared.

    Mixed Spicy Crab
    Raymond T.

    I don't eat seafood in general but this place is actually good that I ate so much. Everything is so fresh and flavorful. My favorite is the Mixed Spicy Crab. I love the side veggies, potato and rice cakes. The Spicy Duck Blood is so soft and fresh that it's like tofu! One of the best I've ever had. The Stinky Tofu is crunchy on the outside and soft and aromatic on the inside. The Taiwanese kimchi that comes with it are spicy and compliments the Stinky Tofu. The Stir-Fried Clams is so fresh and yummy! I forgot to take a picture of the Stir-Fried Cabbage because it got devoured before I can pull out my phone: it's that good!

    Mixed seafood dry pot with crab - giant portions! Filled with rice cakes, lotus roots, veggies, and potatoes

    Freshest seafood in LA! The restaurant is rather small and unassuming but definitely a hidden gem. The staff and the owner/chef were super friendly, and the service was super fast. They helped walk our table through the menu and really worked to give us great recommendations. All the food was delicious - from the egg yolk crawfish to even the stir-fried cabbage. My favorite was definitely egg yolk crawfish. The sauce was so rich and the crawfish were extremely fresh. It's very messy to eat but they make sure to give gloves and bibs. It was an instant hit with the whole table. The mixed crab dry pot was gigantic and packed full of great seafood and was my personal favorite. For the more adventurous eaters, I also recommend the fried stinky tofu. Its not for everybody but was surprisingly good. I will definitely be going back!

    So good : spicy  。love it!!!
    Jie W.

    Good service the frog and crabs you can taste really fresh even my kids like it very much good place to eat with friends and family

    Cheryl N.

    First time trying out this seafood place with my friend and the foods were bomb!!! I have not tried seafood with such flavorful seasonings (my go-to is usually cajun). The frog legs and stinky tofu are good with rice!! The crab is very delish!!!

    每日菜品,每日新鲜!
    Edward W.

    Absolutely one of the best places for crabs and crawfish! Their crabs are super fresh! We've been here almost a dozen time and their quality control is amazing. I had the opportunity to talk to the owner and they said all their crabs are delivered fresh daily! Service is strong and communicates well on estimated time for food to be ready. I would say their selections are worth of their pricing. Will absolutely return in the future. 最喜欢的就是他们家的蛋黄蟹, 小龙虾,辣炒蛤蜊,红糖糍粑. 基本上都很好吃. 食物都很新鲜!

    Raw marinated shrimp
    Zoe S.

    This our favorite restaurant for Chinese spicy crab and raw marinated seafood . Their seafood are always live , fresh and of high quality. The price is not low, but you get what you pay for. Hands down the best Chinese spicy and raw seafood.

    Crystal D.

    The food is good for people who love spicy! We ordered some crawfish and crab! It's my first time here and I feel's it very surprising me! Especially the noddle! It's perfect taste when I eat with the crawfish! Love it!

We ordered the Big plate chicken to share, and let me tell you, it was phenomenal! The dish is a spicy chicken stew made with Sichuan peppercorns, cumin, and chili paste, and comes with handpulled noodles. It was my first time trying this type of Chinese-Uyghur crossover dish, and it definitely surpassed my expectations. The portion was incredibly generous as well, as the dish was more than enough for the two of us plus leftovers.

    The food is absolutely phenomenal. I have been meaning to go here because of all the hype on social…read moremedia about their San Gabriel location so I was excited to realize there was one nearby. Their HK style food is authentic and delicious. We started with the hot and sour soup and it is literally the best version we have ever had. It had a bit of the Szechuan numbing spice and was a huge portion so we took half home. We also ordered their steamed rice rolls with shrimp and chive and you can tell it was made fresh by the wrinkles in the rice paper. The last item we ordered was their chinese sausage clay pot. It was exactly what we were craving. Crispy rice all along the edges with perfectly steamed rice, chinese broccoli and crispy chinese sausage. It was hard to choose because their menu was huge and we came late so we missed the pineapple buns but definitely need to try it next time. I also saw everyone ordering the lemon iced tea and realized it's because they do free refills! That's another need to try. I felt the value was really great and we definitely are coming back. Service was also great. The waiters quickly came over when you waved them down and they checked on you just the right amount of time. The decor inside is very cute and I love the retro style. Only complaint I would have is that we sat on the left side of the restaurant and there were quite a few mosquitos on the booth so we ended up sitting on one side.

    My family and I came over for lunch, and it was loud and crowded on a Sunday at about noon. We…read morechecked in and got a number. It took about ten minutes for us to get a booth table, but we were waiting inside. The staff member called numbers firstly in Cantonese then in English. After we sat down, the waiting line persisted past 1 pm. Similarly, the bustling loudness continued on during the course of our meal. Food arrived quickly, however. The price point for the delicious food is competitive. We got French-style filet mignon ($18.99), braised tofu in brown sauce ($14.99), chicken chow mein ($14.99), and a steamed rice noodle roll with barbecue pork ($5.99). A pot of rice was included in our meal. The steamed rice noodle roll with barbecue pork was a nice appetizer that arrived first. I enjoyed how the French-style filet mignon was garnished with Thai basil, black pepper, and ginger. The meat was flavorful and tender. The braised tofu in brown sauce was consistently hot on the inside. The delicious brown sauce soaked throughout the vegetables. The chicken chow mein didn't have a lot of sauce, but it was still delicious with a lot of meat included. Overall, it would be nice to visit again outside of a peak time because the food prices are competitive. The menu is expansive, and the breakfast selections look interesting. The atmosphere during the Sunday lunch peak time was consistently bustling. I think the restaurant started to play Chinese music loudly at random points so that people could finish dining more quickly.
