I stopped by Lobster Guys in Fountain Valley by myself, and I honestly had such a great experience…read more From the moment I walked in, the staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming. The decorations are very nice and make you feel like you are right by the beach. I got the Classic Lobster Roll and it was absolutely delicious. The lobster was incredibly fresh, buttery, and perfectly cooked, and the roll was packed with flavor. The portion was generous, and every bite was just as good as the last. Easily one of the best lobster rolls I've had in a long time. What really stood out to me was the quality of the food and the level of service. Even though I was dining by myself, I felt completely welcomed and taken care of. I'll definitely be coming back whenever I'm craving seafood. If you're in Fountain Valley and love lobster, Lobster Guys is absolutely worth checking out. Easy 5 stars!

Tried Lobster Guys and decided to do a little lobster roll taste test! We ordered the Maine Style,…read moreConnecticut Style, and Classic Butter Lobster Rolls. All three were loaded with a really generous amount of lobster, definitely not skimpy, and at around $22 each, I thought the portions were pretty good for the price. The Connecticut Style was my favorite. The lobster is served warm and poached in butter, with just a touch of mayo, green onions, and Old Bay. I really liked the combination of the warm buttery lobster with the creaminess from the mayo. The Maine Style is served cold with lemon aioli and celery, while the Classic Butter is warm buttered lobster with Old Bay. Both were good, but I'd order the Connecticut again without hesitation. If you're a lobster lover, this is a fun spot because you can try the different styles and actually taste the difference. Connecticut Style = the winner for me!

Folks always talk about how there are certain types of restaurants they avoid. Mostly it's because…read more they don't like the taste of the cuisine. Or maybe they like the cuisine, but for health reasons they've been told to avoid eating it. I know for me I just haven't come around to a lot of Asian cuisines that are focused on high vegetable and low protein content. But to this day Toby and I have never shared a seafood boil together. She has a germaphobe reaction to eating food with her hands and there's no easy way to knife-and-fork stuff like shrimp, crawfish, crab, or lobster. She's offered to get something else like fish n' chips or a plain steak or something, while I get myself a boil. However, one of the joys of boils is digging into a mound of Cajun-flavored seafood together as a group effort. A wondrous temple to the art like Roux Seafood Kitchen would be wasted on her. I couldn't get enough of their shrimp and crawfish. They were both plump, flavorful, and disassembled easy in my hands. At a lb. each, I was more than stuffed at meal's end. I think the only thing that could've made it better is if I had ordered a lobster tail in there. That would've been my ideal order. The service was great here for my party. The drinks were refilled quickly, the food was brought out in an efficient manner, and even the order taking was controlled in what kind of have been haphazard conditions. I liked the ambiance too. The dining room was a spacious and accommodating. The music was low. And the crowds were busy but not super full, which is where I like it. Nobody was on top of each other at neighboring tables and the noise level wasn't drowning. All in all, I think this is the perfect example of a seafood boil joint. The only thing that could've made it better is if my oldest eating buddy (and ex) could've miraculously gotten over her condition and joined me. That's the dream.

This festive News Orieans-inspired resto with Asian flair in Huntington Beach did not disappoint!…read moreIt's a few miles away from the beach, but it is on busy Beach Blvd! We just ordered two staples: Jambalaya & Shrimp Etoufee. Entrees came out in about 20 minutes hot, fresh & amply sized. They're reasonably priced, too!

I had a glass of KJ Chardonnay to accompany the meal and it was pleasant. Service was very friendly and helpful from both servers working today. 5% discount if you use cash!

Restaurant has lots of seating for big groups!…read more Great concept that keeps your Pho super hot - but it was too hot for my liking. I wasn't able to eat too quickly because of that and my noodles were pretty soggy. They give you a LOT of noodles so two people could definitely share a Hot Stone Pot. The meat is very good but the only redeeming quality about the Pho because the soup was super bland and watery. The Cajun seafood platter was way overcooked so all the seafood inside was mushy AND bland. Service was really quick and the staff there was quick to help. If you're starving and have no other late night options, this is an alright spot but not recommended otherwise.

One of the reasons we wanted to visit this restaurant was to try the NOLA Grilled Oyster Combo…read more($69.99). Along with that, our table also ordered: the quail with sticky rice ($20.99), salted fish and shrimp fried rice ($24.99), shaken beef with garlic noodles ($22.99), bok choy with sautéed garlic ($12.99), a hot tea ($4.00), Coca-Cola ($5.50), a mojito ($15.00), and a margarita ($15.00). With tax ($17.71), our ticket was $209.16 before gratuity. The NOLA Grilled Oysters come sizzling on a hot griddle, with four different fillings, four pieces each, for a total of 16 oysters. The price might seem a bit indulgent, but not if you consider the effort and ingredients that go into this presentation. Each type was flavorful, and there wasn't a single one I didn't enjoy. The salted fish fried rice was an interesting experience. I enjoyed the dish, though the salted fish was less salty than I expected. Someone in our group, who usually doesn't like salted fish fried rice because they find it too salty, actually liked this version for its milder flavor. The plate also includes four large shrimp. The shaken beef was tasty and tender; the garlic noodles were al dente and had just enough garlic--not excessive. The sautéed garlic added a smoky, nutty taste to the bok choy. The quail was marinated well and tasted good--but I wonder if it was fried just a bit too long. After this meal, I chatted with a friend who lives in the community. He'd been to this spot before but dismissed it as just another seafood boil joint. After our conversation, though, he said he'd be willing to give it another shot. I guess your impression of this restaurant depends, at least in part, on what you order. The service, by the way, was excellent. The dining environment was clean and comfortable, with plenty of television screens so people could keep up with World Cup matches.

We got the mentaiko pizza, fried cauliflower, calamari, crab spaghetti, and seafood pasta. The portion sizes here were quite large for the price. The mentaiko pizza was delicious.

They make their pasta in house and noodles were super bouncy! 8/10. The crab spaghetti was a highlight of the meal. The crab flavor was super strong and it was topped with ricotta and lemon. The lemon really pulled the whole dish together, 10/10. We came on a Saturday afternoon and it was very busy, but we only had to wait about 10-15 min to be seated.

The restaurant was kind enough to bring a side of the torpedo sauce for us to dip. The seafood was fresh so no complaints!
