I went here because I saw the garlic noodles online they looked really good, so I was tempted to check it out I ordered the garlic noodles with the surf and turf. The steak was a little tough.....sliced really thin with 3 shrimp on top. I put a picture on here for reference. It didn't look super tasty but it wasn't too bad. I asked for them to make it spicy, it was spicy and I feel like I'm still on the search for a better garlic noodles. The drunken wings were really good. The truffle fries were good. They also had happy hour when I went happy hour is every day from 5 to 7...even on the weekend. I went on a Saturday Also during happy hour oysters are a dollar I did not get any. The duck look really good. The duck is prepared to order. It takes about 45 minutes. A few orders of that went out. Will probably go back. Customer service was cool. Dennis is the best. Thanks for taking care of me.
Really disappointing experience at Drunken Lobster. The tables were dirty when we sat down, and the music was way too loud--hard to even have a conversation. The food quality didn't match the pricing at all. The duck tasted like it was reheated, with uneven temperature (some parts hot, others still cold), which is unacceptable. Only positive was the garlic noodles--they were actually good. Service was poor. We were given water without cups at first, and when cups did come out, they were plastic... at a place serving wagyu and lobster. That just doesn't make sense. Overall, the experience felt careless and not worth the price. Definitely expected much better.
The food was really tasty and very well seasoned. The staff took care of us but it kind of took a second for them to realize that we're not here to play around and we literally want to eat and order everything on the menu. We came here when there was a lot of construction outside and in the parking lot, not sure what it looks like now but don't be turned away by the looks of the outside. Trust, my mom almost wanted to go somewhere else. Glad we at least got to try this place out. They were sold out of a couple seafood options we wanted but the crawfish was really good and the oysters yessss. The steak garlic noodles were a favorite as well as the fried rice. Not too many drink options here so don't expect cocktails or anything too fancy but what we did have was good enough and went well with our food.
Drunken Lobster is owned by a local singer who relocated back to Houston after years of living in California while he was a member of the band Asia 4. I had high hopes of enjoying this place enough to become a regular and support the business but unfortunately, the food didn't quite meet my expectations. I ordered: Salted Egg Clam Pasta - I'm a huge fan of the salted egg flavor so I had to try this pasta dish. However, it was a complete disappointment. The pasta was all color but no flavor whatsoever. So, if you're looking for that salty egg taste, you won't find it here despite the name. Fried softshell crab--the order included one crab and one dip. The dip had a mayo and Sriracha mix flavor. The batter was light, and the crab had a soft crunch. I would probably order it again, but I would ask to leave the red seasoning on top out. Shaking Beef - my partner ordered this dish and I was told that the beef had a pretty good flavor to it but nothing about the dish really stood out. I understand that many Californians are relocating to Texas and opening restaurants. While I don't mind paying California prices here in Houston, I do expect California flavors so to speak with that kind of pricing. On the positive side, they have an appealing happy hour menu featuring $1/fresh oyster. Overall, I would rate this place 3 stars for its food and 4 stars for the combination of clean ambiance + quasi friendly service + easy and ample parking + support for a local singer.
This was our last dinner before flying out and I'm so glad it was! We came on a Friday night for a late night dinner around 9 PM. The place was packed, but to be fair, it's a pretty small restaurant. This looks like a crowd favorite for large groups as most guests had at least 6+ people to their table. We were a party of 3, and lucked out as a table was just leaving as we arrived. We still had a 10 min wait though while they cleaned up. They had a live band playing by the front door and while I really enjoyed the music, it was just way too loud for the space. You literally can not hear each other unless you're speaking directly into the other person's ear, so not really a good choice for a first date or any event where you actually want to socialize with your party lol They specialize in seafood so what did we get? Seafood duh! We ordered the following: Drunken Lobster - House dish, you get to choose the size of your lobster (small, medium, large). We went with the medium for the two of us and killed the whole plate. It was about $58, not too bad considering it's served with a ton of garlic noodles underneath. They use spaghetti noodles though, so not my fav, but they were cooked well and held the flavors nicely. The lobster was cooked perfectly, and easy to get the meat out. The flavor is very umami, heavy on the oyster sauce. Wish there was a spice level option! Sizzling Clams - Seriously SOOOOO good! Would get this again. Comes with two sauces, one is a greenish spicy tart flavor, and the other is more sweet fish sauce forward. Use both and it's a flavor bomb! Queen Scallops - The scallops themselves were sooooo tender but the flavor was bland AF. This was such a shame because if they came with a sauce like the clams, this would have been a top notch dish. IDK if they prepared ours right tbh cause I can't imagine this dish is meant to have no salt at all. Super disappointing. Fried Soft Shell Crab - We loved this! The crabs had the perfect crunch, but still tender and juice inside. Paired with the spicy mayo (not that spicy), it was a good app. $10ish for 3 crabs, not bad at all. Fried Shrimp w/Fries- my picky daughter is a french fry fiend. Fortunately enough she loves shrimp, so this was her dish. The fries are actually really good and they pair well with the spicy mayo. They have ketchup too if you want that. The shrimps still had their tails but they look like they were split in half length wise and then battered and fried, so they kinda look like tentacles lol The batter is a little heavy but not too bad. A good option for the kiddos. Dozen Oysters - Apparently they serve $1 oysters EVERYDAY after 5 PM. I didn't know this before going but holy smokes! If this isn't reason enough to visit, then idk. Initially they told me they were out and I was super bummed about it. Bummed is an understatement cause my BF was already planning to bring me somewhere else for oysters right after dinner but some time later in the evening, they told me they were able to get some. You guys! The way my eyes lit up when they brought my oyster platter out, you had to be there. The oysters are so fresh and so clean, clean (IYKYK) and they're huge! Despite being large oysters, they're so sweet and not briny at all. They serve this with a saltines, cocktail sauce, limes, tabasco, and horseradish. One of my oysters were a little small so they actually gave me an extra one to make up for it. This was my fav dish the whole night and I ate all 13 of them. I was a happy girl and my BF was a happy man cause he didn't have to hear me cry about how I didn't get my oysters lol Staff is friendly but disorganized. Servers brought the wrong dish to our table 3 diff times, very weird. They also only gave us 1 plate, but 3 sets of utensils so we had to ask for more plates. Other tables seemed to have the right amount though, so idk what that was about. In addition, when our food started coming out, they actually took away our clams even though we still had 1 uneaten clam on the plate. We let them know and they were apologetic about it. Instead of making a new one, they told us they'd discount it but when the check came.. no discount lol We let it go though because they saved the say by bringing me oysters and for my man, my happiness is PRICELESS haha. All in all, a great experience. Food was delicious and I would come back again if we're ever back in Houston!
Deliciousness!! We got the garlic steak noodles, egg rolls, and lomo saltado. Everything tasted very good. The service was nice and the food came out pretty fast. They have so many things on the menu. Can't wait to come back and try something new.
I really like the food here! We came here on Saturday for a late lunch and wanted a few light bites. We ordered the papaya salad, cooked oysters, and tofu. All were really delicious. My favorite was the tofu. Service was relatively fast and the restaurant is clean. Restrooms were also clean. The total came out to be ~$60. The cocktails they had seemed interesting so I will have to come back and try. Parking is plenty in the lot outside. 1 star off since you could probably get a better deal elsewhere for the same food with how competitive Chinatown is. I hear there is live music, so we will probably be back soon.
After volunteering with some classmates, I went to try Drunken Lobster afterwards in bellaire. They have a lunch special where you can get one of their entrees for $11.95. I got the bánh canh tôm cua. It's a crab shrimp soup with udon noodles. I also added a soft shell crab on the side. The broth is thick and crabby. It comes with thick and chewy noodles that absorb the broth very well. It also comes with tons of slices of meat and pieces of shrimp. They also provide a veggie tray as well as some condiments like a salted fish paste if you want to make your broth more salty. I really enjoyed mine and so did everyone else. I would pass on the soft shell crab next time though. I want to try their garlic noodles next time. Their stir fried lobster with garlic noodles dish especially sounds appetizing
Came here with a friend and the restaurant was not busy at all, it was a little toasty in there though but there was a standing fan. The lady taking our orders was really nice and recommended many things for us to try. The food was good but can get very pricey in my opinion! The lychee drink was great but a little on the sweet side because there's no vodka in it, just sake. They don't have hard liquor in the establishment. Overall a solid restaurant and very clean!
The service was phenomenal. Very friendly from the time I walked into the restaurant to the time I left. The food was beyond belief amazing. The garlic noodles were so delicious and the steak was so tender. The soft-shell crab was amazing and had some of the best flavor. The restaurant was clean and very welcoming. It gave a real family friendly atmosphere.
Disappointing. Had read the great reviews and saw the yummy pictures of the food here and so we were excited to try it. We wanted to order so many things but ended up ordering just 3 things: steak garlic noodles $15.95 garlic butter crab fingers $14.95 salted egg clam pasta $19.85 total: $54.96 the steak garlic noodles was our favorite. the noodles had good flavor, and the steak was well seasoned. the crab fingers were so dry and didn't taste fresh at all. the salted egg clam pasta was too saucy, heavy, and the flavor was weird.. can't even explain it but didn't taste what you would expect "salted egg" to taste like (and i love salted egg anything!). very disappointed that we paid almost $60 and only 1 of 3 dishes was decent enough to eat. so basically we had to throw away about $35 of food because nobody wanted to eat it.
We came here for my mom's birthday on a Saturday afternoon and was seated immediately! The good prices were okay for Vietnamese seafood. My favorite fish was the soft shell crab tamarind flavor (not pictured). We ordered grilled oysters, soft shell crab, snails, razor clams, and the drunken lobster special. The lobster noodles were actually really good! The lobster was cooked perfectly. The noodles were FULL of savory flavors. The restaurant was a small cute Vietnamese type of restaurant. Restrooms were clean!
This review is based on a dinner at the establishment for our party of three. Pros: Service -- our waitress was nice and courteous and not pushy or try to upsell expensive dishes. Garlic Green beans dish was great. LOL That is my fav here. Love the garlic noodles with shrimps Cons: Not cheap Truffle fries were just meh.

Very good seafood and service. It's pricey though with small portions. The food was packed with flavor. On Friday nights they have live music. I would recommend their Godly fried rice and wings. I also liked the scallops. read more
Food is amazing. Had the egg shrimp and I thought about it for 3 whole weeks. It was so good. I'm not a shell on shrimp person so I did take it off but it was so good. The sake cocktails are flavorful. The scallop appetizers have the greatest sauces and toppings. Fridays at 7:30 is live music and I loved it. Fridays it does get loud and busy. We got there around 6:40 and was able to get a table within a few minutes. read more

Their garlic noodles are worth a trip in itself! the drunken lobster plate was delicious. I got a "small" and it was enough for at least 3 people. The steak was seasoned well, almost had a mild spice, and tender! The service was fast. They were out of a few beverages and she came a few times to report, so I would have wanted her after the first time to let us know what else wasn't available. Somebody else came again and said the 3rd choice was out but wouldn't let my guest sample a Thai tea (never had it before). Although not expected to receive samples, had he allowed a sample it would have been a really excellent gesture considering the back and forth interruption a few times. The inside was modern/farmhouse style. I thought it was a little odd considering the menu but It felt comfortable and enjoyable dining experience. read more

Love this place !!! Everything is so flavorful and exquisite! My Favorite is the lemongrass basil clams. The best I've tried in town! You also have to try their drunken lobster noodles. Worth every penny! read more
Solid meal of delicious seafood. The drunken lobster was devoured along with the accompanying and perfectly cooked garlic noodles. The soft shelled crab was inhaled. The sizzling clams and queen scallops were delightful. Even the truffle fries were addicting. Even loved their lychee tea. Two thumbs up. read more
Very clean Asian restaurant in Bellaire. Usually restaurants in bellaire are pretty run down but this place is clean and pretty spicy. The godly fried rice is probably the best thing I ordered here. Prices are pretty high here but they offer many things to choose from. Service wasn't too bad and food came out pretty quick. I will try their lobster noodle next time whenever I want to splurge on more food choices here! Solid 3.75/5 stars ! read more
The food is delicious and flavorful. The staff was friendly but not very attentive. We sat for a while waiting for them to bring out our bread to eat with bo ne and refill our water. We had to ask someone and they asked another person. Overall, It's a very clean restaurant and the food was good. read more

Food: Highlight is drunken lobster for sure. The lobster was seasoned perfectly which combines well with the bed of noodles. The snails were big and juicy but could skip out since they lacked flavor. Try the cocktails! Service: Great staff! Super accommodating. Ambiance: Lighting was great and it's pretty spotless. read more

Definitely lots of great flavor in their dishes, but much of them were a little too raw for my liking. -Soft Shell Crab - 5/5! I would definitely order again. Tasty and crunchy! -Lao Sausage - 3/5. Some sausages were raw and would prefer if it was cooked a little longer. I did like it was over a bed of salad. -Sizzling Scallops - 4/5. Robust and awesome flavors, but again, a little too raw. The onions were really good! -Beef Salad - 2/5. The beef were a little hard to chew and to enjoy. Their spicy tamarind salad dressing was surely on the spicier side for me and my mouth was on fire :P Don't forget to check-in to redeem your Winter Melon Tea! It was sweet and refreshing which helped with the spicy tamarind salad dressing. I'd return for the attentive customer service and to try other things like their Steak Garlic Noodles or Godly Fried Rice! read more

Came here with a pretty group of friends and they were so accommodating! We ordered so many plates I kind of lost track of the names. I would recommend every dish we did have though. My favorites overall would be the lobster and the snails. Houston has long been overdue for a Vietnamese seafood place. Set it was great and food was amazing ! read more

Great date spot in Bellaire, the dishes were pack full of flavor. One of the few places in Houston that has good garlic noodles. So good that I would even order the noodles without the protein. Soft shell crabs were crispy, garlic noodles n beef was fantastic , and the rice with shrimp was decent read more

What an awesome place. A friend of mine suggested this place for a different take on lobster. The druken lobster did not fail at all. It is truly a great place to eat and have fun. Friendly staff and they told me to come by on Friday because they have live music. read more
Drunken Lobster is a new seafood fusions restaurant in Houston's bustling Chinatown. The reviews are great and the seafood is good, but the customer service is impeccable. A group of 9 of us ordered two servings of each: - Curly Fries - can't go wrong with these twirly whirly crunchy goodness. 5/5 - Drunken Wings - my personal favorite. Crispy, hot and flavorful wings and juicy with every bite. 5/5 - Ungodly Fried Rice - this was good but honestly, not my favorite kind of fried rice. There were shreds of beef mixed in and an egg topped the mountain of rice. It was lacking flavor for my liking. 3/5 - Sizzling Scallops - topped with scallions and a dark sauce poured on once the hot plate hits the table, this dish was good but definitely on the pricey end. 3/5 - Sizzling Clams - one of my favorites! This came on a bed of onions, which when paired with the clams, created a perfectly balanced bite. 4/5 - Surf and Turf Noodles - the shrimp was flavored well, but nothing special. The beef was perfectly seasoned and cooked. The noodles were a bit plain but the entire dish was good, nonetheless. 3/5 The service was a huge 5/5. All the employees were extremely friendly and took care of us very well. They were attentive to us the entire 1.5-2 hours we were dining. I would definitely check this place out if you're debating something good to eat. Just be prepared to pay high prices for the meal! read more

I was just a CA kid visiting Houston to impress my Vietnamese Gf's parents and family. Coming from a Filipino family, I knew too well how important it was to impress your significant other's parents. I'm not a doctor and I didn't attend Harvard, so I had my work cut out for me. Having heard that Drunken Lobster brought over the California Vietnamese style fusion famously coveted in Westminster/Fountain Valley, this looked like the place to lockdown that approval. To say the least, the Godly fried rice was heavenly and beckoned me to repent to all my ex gfs. The Truffle fries made me feel like a French pig searching in the forests, while the sizzling clam and scallops whispered savory seduction to my tongue. The artisanal lychee drink was also amazing. Looking over at my potential in-laws, my future Ba locked eyes with me as he took a third serving of the Drunken Lobster dish. A slight nod and smile validated what I could only interpret as "you're the best boyfriend my daughter could ever deserve. Let's be best friends and hand feed spring rolls to each other." Mission accomplished! In summary, forget the ring. If you want the in-laws to like you, you better put a Drunken Lobster on it. read more

Ambiance and Service: Rule of thumb: don't go here on a Friday night unless you want your eardrums to rupture. I guess on Fridays they have live music at night. The singers and musicians themselves were talented, but the volume was way too loud for such a small restaurant (around 80-90 dB). We saw one group leave before they ordered bc of the noise and another had put headphones in bc the sound was unbearable. We could hardly hear ourselves at the table and we could also hardly hear our waiter. Service was unremarkable and staff was relatively inattentive. We had to ask for more water and more napkins ourselves. Food: We didn't get the lobster this time around but the food we had gotten was mostly unimpressive. Bland at most times. We got the surf n turf w/garlic noodles, crispy chicken wings, godly fried rice, tamarind soft shell crab, and clam pasta. Here's a review of each 1) Surf n turf: (6/10) shrimp was good size but unseasoned. Steak was chewy and unseasoned as well. best part was the garlic noodles that had a nice flavor and bite to them 2) Wings: (3/10) unseasoned. the texture and juiciness of the wings were fine but they had no flavor. The sauce that was served with it was like a watered down creamy buffalo but even that was only okay. 3) Fried rice: (8/10) This dish was the best out of all that we had ordered. A nice richness and flavor and you could definitely taste the truffle. however, i feel like it was lacking in acidity in the form of a sauce that could had tied the whole dish together. 4) soft shell crab: (2/10) this thing was tiny and the inside of the crab had an off-putting flavor. sauce was alright but it made the crab soggier 5) clam pasta (4/10): i feel like this dish lacked in flavor overall. the presentation was nice but it just tasted like a bland cream sauce with a clam flavor. also they got small ah water cups. you take one sip and you already gotta refill. i'm just picky i guess. overall, i'm highly disappointed in our experience here and will probably not be coming back. if you do go here just consider the godly fried rice, any dish that comes with the noodles, and any other dish we didn't try. read more

Drunken Lobster looked promising from a video I saw on Instagram so I decided to try it out with a friend. The aroma outside the restaurant and seeing the groups of people enter the restaurant also seemed promising. However, this was a perfect example of don't always believe the hype you see online. My friend and I left disappointed! - soft shell crabs (2): would not recommend. very small, not much crab, and lacking in flavor ! It was basically like eating unseasoned batter. The sriracha mayo is what (kind of) saved it. - Godly fried rice: overpriced dry fried rice. description says, "braised oxtail and brisket, fried with jasmine rice, served with sunny side up egg & truffle seasoning." The meats are shredded so you can't really tell them apart, but I feel like it was mostly brisket. Dry brisket might I add. At least the egg was cooked slightly over easy, but the yolk couldn't even save this dry dish. Wouldn't pay $17 for this fried rice. - Drunken lobster: $58 for 1-1.25 lbs of lobster. I will say the lobster was large and we did get a lot of meat out of it. I think the proportion of noodles to lobster didn't match. The noodles were also very underwhelming. I think it was comparable to Panda Express' chow mein. Overall, flavor wasn't up to par with my expectation. I guess I was expecting more garlic, butter, lemon, something! Would definitely say it was overpriced. Customer service was fine! They kept checking on us. A slight confusion on if they gave us the right platter, but they said it was correct. The wait time was longer than expected though and the restaurant wasn't full either. The interior was clean and spacious. I liked how tables were not stacked next to each other so you didn't feel like you were dining with your neighbor. Overall, I would say the experience was 2.5/5. I really really hate giving low ratings, especially to new businesses. So I'll round up to 3. It seems like with the restaurant being new, they're trying to work out a lot of kinks. Understandable and I might give them another try, but not any time soon. Perhaps a year or two from now for them to really get everything together. Also, I will note that this review is based on when I went in end of May and their menu now has slightly changed. So it seems like they're adding and making changes as time goes on. read more
I've been meaning to give this place a try for a while now, the food is great! We ordered the drunken lobster which is a big plate of garlic noodles with drunken lobster on top ($68). The consistency of the noodle wasn't as good as I expected but overall taste was good! We also tried a bunch of their appetizers and it was all delicious. Only problem is that the food was a bit pricey (appetizers and drinks were all around $10-$15). Good fusion restaurant with interesting selection of food. They did have a special running for 2 lobsters for just under $50, maybe we'll give that a try next time! read more

Visited here on Saturday 06/18/2022. We had a group of us that went, so it was perfect so we could order family style to share. We were greeted immediately and then sat not too long afterwards. It was busy but staff was attentive. After sitting we ordered drinks. Got some nuoc mia, passion fruit mojito, but the best IMO was the minty lemonade. Really fresh feeling drinking on a hot day. We ordered these for sharing: Truffle Fries: very crispy and hot. Good truffle spice seasoning on top. Great sharing appetizer and suggest it for any group. Soft shell crab: super soft and was able to eat while thing without issue. Good taste and seasoning. This can be hard to make just right but pleasantly surprised. Sizzling scallop: one of our group favorites! The sauce that was the scallop was really good. We actually asked for more of it to eat wit our meals. Scallop was cooked perfectly. Sizzling clam: another very solid dish. We liked this one but the scallop sauce was so good when compared to this one. Sea snail: this might not be for everyone but these snails were so good. They were fresh and the nuoc mam cham (fish sauce dip) that came with it was a perfect fit. Was my personal favorite thing. I wish I had more but we were sharing. Steak garlic noodles: the plate wasn't bad, we enjoyed the noodles but we got a mild spice level and wish we got it a littler spicier. The steak was cooked medium and was great with the noodles. We ate it with nuoc mam but likely some might add salt. Godly fried rice: oxtail pieces were good! Had some crisp on the rice. It's not like a normal fried rice so be sure you know that before ordering. The egg was cooked sunny side up, but was slightly more fried style. When cut it was runny over the rice. So good. It was a few people's favorite overall dish in our group. Drunken Lobster: the star of the show and it did not disappoint. We got a 3lb lobster. The sauce on the lobster was really good and had a little kick to it. This then also added much more flavor to the noodles as well. The noodles served with the lobster was awesome, this is the way to get it. It was one of the later dishes we had and most of us were full but we tore through the lobster and noodles. We made sure to clean every part. The restaurant gave us nice shell cracker tools to use and even told us that these lobsters are flown fresh in from Maine. We were even shown the lobster prior to cooking and it was definitively fresh and alive. We also learned all other seafood is brought fresh through local vendors. So big plus there for supporting local. The owner did by the table greet us and the staff answered many of our questions. We also found out they plan to do a seasonal menu. So we are pretty excited to hear that. Want to see what items they move and add. It makes sense since most fresh seafood are only available during specific seasons. Can't wait to come back try new items and hit up some of our favorite dishes again. Decor is very fitting and wasn't overly done. Nice modern feel and very good space inside. Was happy to see that since so many other places in the area cram so tables in a small area. As of the date of this review they are working on their beer and wine license. Didn't get to capture pictures of everything as everyone dug in real quick but was overall a great experience. read more

Tried this place out today with a good friend of mine. Decor was mehhh. Service was top notch. I was most excited for the salted egg shrimp because I had never had it before but it was a bit underwhelming. And then the steak garlic noodles came out. I would come back again and again for that dish alone. It was incredible! The steak was cooked perfectly medium rare. The noodles were sooooooo good. And seriously the service was awesome. Everyone was super accommodating and super sweet. I'll hopefully be back soon read more

I've been wanting to try this place. Its a take on asian cuisine. We came with a group of 5. We shared the fries, scallops (immediately devoured), salted egg clam pasta, fried rice and drunken lobster. Every dish was cooked to perfection. The service was very attentative. We were drinking water quite a bit and they refilled it every time. This will definitely be on our special occations list of restaurants. read more

They lost 1 star right off the rip because when we first walked in, there was a lot of smoke in the restaurant. The ventilation is not good and with a lot of sizzling plate dishes adding more smoke to the restaurant, it was not enjoyable. Luckily there were some portable fans but it was still smokey and hot. I couldn't imagine what it would feel like during peak hours when the sun is at it's hottest since we went at 630pm. Service was fast and good. The Jasmine Lychee Tea was very refreshing! As for the food, we ordered 7 different dishes to try them all out. 1. Tôm Nướng Mì Xào was buttery and cooked nicely. 2. Biển Nướng Bo Tiêu was chewy and so good! 3. Nghêu Nướng Mỡ Hành was pretty tasty and flavorful. 4. Holy Cow Fries was alright. The meat was more on the salty side and it didn't have enough sauce for the amount of fries given. 5. So Điệp Nướng was a little too raw for our taste, we had to cut the scallops in half and put it back om the sizzling plate to cook it a little more but it was still raw. 2 out of 8 people in the group threw up and got a stomachache after eating and we think it's from this? 6. Cua Lột Chiên was okay. The batter wasn't as crispy and didn't have enough flavor, even with the sauce. 7. Nghêu Xả Lá Quế Sup was flavorful and had that sweet and sour taste that was so good to just keep sipping on the broth. As for the clams, they were ivercooked and chewy. Overall, good food. Good vibe. I would come back for some of the dishes and maybe try some of the other ones but they need to get that ventilation fixed! read more

okay so my bf saw this place on Instagram (i think) and we decided to give it a try. guys, the place is actually really good!! we got the garlic noodle surf and turf (5/5), truffle fries (4/5), and their godly fried rice (4/5). truffle fries were as expected. godly fried rice (not pictured) was pretty good, i just thought there was something missing, it wasn't as flavorful as i was expecting. now, the garlic noodle surf and turf was soooooo good, the noodles was the perfect flavor of garlic and the steak was cooked well & shrimp was paired perfectly. service was quick and easy. we haven't tried their drunken lobster but we'll definitely be back for it! (and the garlic noodles lol) I definitely recommend if you're in the area! read more
