Small charge for hot tea per person. Were able to ask any staff for help when needed, no assigned waitstaff, which was ok bec. service was fast. Walking distance from Broadway/Queens Blvd so Elmhurst Ave stop on M, R train and a few bus lines. Restrooms available.

Wow! Ocean Bay Seafood Restaurant is now open 10am everyday for dim sum! Yay! so happy because I…read morelove dim sum Definitely recommend Ocean Bay Seafood Restaurant to family and friends. We came for dim sum and stayed for lunch. I loved that the rice rolls were made only if someone ordered them. My fav is the shrimp rice roll. The shrimp rice crepe wrapped me in its warm embrace while the fresh shrimp was almost crunchy, steamed just right. The chicken feet will always be one of my favorite dishes, they marinate it well and it's usually very flavorful. Our seafood chow fun was very well made, fresh rice noodle with shrimp, scallops, squid and other seafood cooked just right. The chefs here are spot on every time in taste, texture and the degree to which everything should be cooked to perfection. It's always a joy to feast here for celebrations, family dinners and everything in-between. Two thumbs up! Ocean Bay Seafood Restaurant is definitely a hidden gem and consistently brings amazing comfort food to all who crave an exciting foodie adventure.

When the…read morewaitress presented me with the ipad for the tip she had already preselected the lowest amount. I don't care, I tap no tip and apologize. She just barked at me "No! Tip not included!" and presses the tip amount for me again. I ask her "Oh, are tips obligatory?". At this point I definitely didn't want to give a tip anymore. She just shouts the same thing at me again. I press no tip again, sign my signature and when I go to press confirm she presses the tip amount right before I confirm. She essentially just forced me into giving her a tip with her slight of hand, maybe hoping I wouldn't have noticed. I say "Oh really? Well, I guess we'll never see each other again." She just turns around and shrugs her shoulders. I was absolutely shocked. To top it off: Really bad food. Tiny bowl of noodles with three sad little leaves of bokchoy.

***This review is strictly for their banquet-style entrees, not dim sum***…read more THE FOOD ---------------- + Banquet-style platters were solid - Our group of 3 tables ordered the Five combination cold appetizers platter, Fried Tofu, Braised Fish Fin and Crab Meat Soup, Sliced Abalone with Mushrooms and Bok Choy, House Beef Short Rib with Broccoli, Lobster, Crab Fried Rice, Crispy Fried Chicken, Steamed Fish, Longevity Noodles were all decent. Highlights included: ++++ House Beef Short Rib with Broccoli - Meat was soooooo tender. It literally fell off of the giant bone in the middle. ++++ Steamed Fish - I wasn't sure what type of fish was ordered, but the fish was delicious. Fish sauce was tasty and the fish was silky smooth. ++++ Lobster - Can't go wrong here, although it wasn't the traditional Cantonese-style as it was drier, but, nevertheless, still excellent. THE SERVICE ------------------- = LIGHTNING FAST! Our entrees for our 3 table banquet came at a ridiculously furious pace. Before we could even pick up the community spoon to scoop food from the prior entree, the next one would come out. It was wayyyy, waaaaayyyy too quick. THE SURROUNDINGS ------------------------------- + MASSIVE main dining room that is perfect for dim sum on weekends. + Private dining room - We sat in here for our small banquet. There were 4 large tables inside, but it was plenty spacious. - Valet only parking lot behind the restaurant was a nightmare and JAM packed, even on a Thursday afternoon at 12 PM. Can't imagine what it's like on a weekend during dim sum hours. Yikes! = The restaurant is located in a residential area, so you can potentially get lucky with a street parking space, albeit a few blocks away. RANDOM OBSERVATIONS -------------------------------------- = There is a takeout area connected to the main restaurant. They sell dim sum, bakery pastries/buns and roast meats there.

During cold weather, it was also cold while inside so good for a quick bite. Located near one of the 71st St-Continental Ave subway exit. Parking meters in the area.

Pork & Crab Dim Sum -- little bombs of flavor that disappeared faster than my paycheck on a Friday. This place is a gem. Customer service? Top notch. And here's the kicker -- every time you spend over $10, they bring out a WHEEL. Spin-to-win action like I'm at a Vegas buffet in Queens. Elmhurst, you did it again.

Definitely a hole in the wall kind of place. It's not a restaurant nor even a place to sit, stand to eat. It's busy and pretty packed here on the weekends.

Love just watching how the rice rolls and chow fun are made here. Also, got the large grass jelly. On a hot n humid day it's always refreshing to have some cold grass jelly- like jello. Will be back to try their other rice rolls.

The counter person was not the owner (I think maybe he was the son) -- very helpful and patient answering all the questions posed by my friends. I forgot to take photos of the food.
