  • Heard a lot about this place. Saw many photos on social media of these lobster mountains and decided that I needed to check it out for myself. Some friends were in town for the weekend, so it was the perfect opportunity. It's loud, like most Chinese restaurants, and there are aquariums circling the entire dining room that are filled with live lobsters and crabs. To be honest, I thought it was a tad creepy (I have phobias of things with many legs). We hummed and hawed between getting king crab, lobster, or both. In the end, we really wanted to get the lobster mountain, so we ordered the "lobster mountain dinner for 4-5". It came with a soup for the table (black chicken soup), 15 lbs of HK style lobster, poached snow pea tips with wolf berry, a bottle of wine, and dessert (black sesame soup). The servers were able to accommodate our request to substitute the wine for beers instead. There were 5 of us, and there was definitely enough food to comfortably feed 6 people. Prior to preparing the meal, the servers brought out our lobsters and we had the opportunity to take photos of them. We were informed that our lobster was a "bigger lobster" so would be an extra $17. That was fine with us. (I don't really know if it was bigger or not, but whatever.) The food came out relatively quickly. The mountain was enormous! It was piled high with large chunks of deep fried lobster, garlic, and tiny fried fish. As hungry as we were, we were unable to conquer the entire lobster mountain and ended up having a tray of leftovers to bring home. It was delicious, but very filling! I was thankful for the snow pea tips - they were a welcome contrast to the meaty, fried lobster. They also served Japanese ginger (the kind you get with sushi), which was a good palate cleanser. Service was decent for a Chinese restaurant. We got plastic gloves to wear while eating and the servers offered to change our plates about 5-6 times. After tax and an automatic 10% tip, our bill was about $320. For 5 people, that's really not so bad. I would consider coming back again in the future to try the king crab. But I've had enough lobster to satisfy me for a lifetime.
