    Flaming Buffet I love their all-day buffet on Saturdays and…read moreSundays! They serve CRAB LEGS, FRESH OYSTERS, and ROASTED DUCK. They also offer a variety of seafood spreads. They have a grilling station with beef, pork, squid, oysters, scallops, BBQ on sticks, and many more! The restaurant is very spacious; no need for a long wait. They also have a spacious room for private events. The servers are well-experienced. Come and experience it for yourself at a very reasonable cost.

    I hate writing 1 star reviews, but I couldn't bring myself to be completely generous here. The…read moreexpression "you get what you pay for" proved true, unfortunately. This place legitimately deserves at least 1 star for the good customer service and plethora of food and dessert items. Our table was cleared of plates often, and our drinks were always replenished. That aside, however, my experience here was less than suitable. The quality of the food was mostly poor-not the way it was cooked or prepared, but in the general temperature of each item I sampled. Oddly, all the hot items had steam coming out from them. But that seemed to be merely for looks and was probably from the boiling water below each food counter, amplified by heat lamps. Even the freshest items coming out were room temperature at best. Some items obviously need to be kept cool, like the sushi, oysters, and other types of raw fish they served, so I understand it can be hard to entertain the needs of all entrees. Nevertheless, there is still major room for improvement. Additionally, the restaurant was cold and the AC was blasting, so this might've contributed to the lack of acceptable food temperature. I sampled their sushi, crawfish, oysters, tilapia, chow mein, their cheesy crab casserole, chicken drumsticks, multiple types of shrimp, multiple types of mussels, fried octopus, and clams to name a few. The items meant to be kept cold were okay. But even some cold items like the sushi were not fresh and tasted overly fishy. I went during a busy Saturday night, leading to a parking lot that was packed. And there ISN'T plenty of parking like another review mentioned. I was fortunate enough to snag 1 open parking spot semi near the entrance, but multiple vehicles behind me were circling the lot endlessly. What's more, the restaurant had a B rating. This is not your typical decent grade on an exam paper. Simple research shows this is indicative of potentially several things. "Common Reasons for a B Rating Pest issues: Finding signs of mice, rats, or insects. Temperature control: Failing to keep hot food hot or cold food cold. Sanitation habits: Poor handwashing or improper food handling. Maintenance lapses: Broken equipment, dirty surfaces, or missing ceiling tiles." I can note that other reviewers witnessed roaches in the bathroom, and while I didn't see anything like that I did experience dish temperature issues. I took several photos of the items they serve, and while they might look appealing in pictures, well... consumer beware. Eat at your own risk. I hate to say it, but the fast food I had earlier in the week tasted better than my meal here.

The Cajun seafood is excellent and, in our opinion, better than other similar places like The Kickin' Crab. What really sets their seafood apart is the basil leaves they add to the sauce. It gives everything an extra layer of flavor that makes it so good and keeps us coming back. They also have Thai food, which is a nice bonus when you want something other than seafood. Portions are good, prices are fair, and the food has been consistently delicious. Definitely one of our favorite spots for Cajun seafood!

    Thus review from a take out perspective…read more Ordered a pound if crawfish and a pound of clams, extra sausages and potatoes, with mixed sauce in medium spicy. The sauce was delicious, offering a Thai inspired flavor to this classic viet cajun style meal. The added basil was a very fragrant addition. California crawfish season is just about to begin, but I don't know if the restaurant started using fresh live crawfish yet because the majority of the crawfish shells were soft and mushy, although thr meat was still good. Based on the sauce alone, I'd definitely try again in a month or two to see if the quality of the crawfish improves as we get deeper into crawfish season. The clams were hit and miss as some were great while others were handy. Generous amounts of sausages and potatoes were given for a good price. My wife and I were able to finish the add ons in one sitting. I'd give the restaurant and overall 3.5 right now, 5 for the sauce alone and a bit lower than a 3 for the seafood quality. We still enjoyed the meal, but quality could definitely be better.

We were coming back from DTLA after a morning errands and the restaurant is conveniently located off the 5 in Santa Fe Springs. Upon arrival, we could already smelled the delicious aromas of pescado dorado, though we weren't looking to get deep fried seafood, but the smell was so appetizing. Pescado Dorado is a family owned business and Victor was such a wonderful and attentive in taking our orders and helping us! We ordered a variety of items, grilled fish taco, mixed seafood ceviche, and the dual grilled protein plates with mahi mahi and beef. We also had the seafood soup that they offered on the menu and I was most excited about this! The flavor was rich and with a bit of lime, it was perfect! The grilled fish taco was probably the best highlight for me! Full chunks of perfectly just right grilled white fish, grilled peppers and pico de gallo in corn tortilla. It was soooo good and full of flavor. The seafood mixed ceviche was also rich and full of sabroso and you really don't need to add any salsa or hot sauce at all! The grilled protein plate was also very good though I did like the mahi a lot better than the beef. Overall, one thing this place offers is that all their food are packed with tons of flavor and the best is their seafood! Service was awesome and the restaurant is super clean and so tropically decorated! They had quite a few recognitions over the years and I hope they continue to receive lots of customers who can come to appreciate what they have to offer! Highly recommend!

I was amazed to see the owner walk out with my son to ensure he made it safely to my car along with my receipt. He was so kind to my son and myself. Prior to coming his customer service on the phone when I placed the order was so gentle and friendly. Now let's talk about the food because wow!!!! The shrimp burrito is phenomenal and delicious. It hit the spot for what I was craving and I will be returning.
