We came here for dinner because we wanted lobster dinner.
Even with a reservation, as soon as we arrived we were told we only had a 2-hours seating limit. With some people in our party arriving late and a small baby, it was a bit of a concern. We saw empty tables throughout the night and they didn't rushed us out.
It was too bad that they forgot one of our dish (French Turbot) and it was served at the end of the meal after we asked them twice.
Ambiance:
The restaurant seems to have ample of space but I felt really cramped at our table. Fitting a baby seat was a problem and we had to juggle some furniture around.
Food:
The menu was in Chinese only and there was no English!!! Not cool. Only one person in our party could read Chinese and she had to make all the decision for the order. Not a lot of variations were available for the set dinners. We ended up with a set lobster dinner for 4 ($298) and 2 veggie dishes on the side.
Our set lobster dinner came with:
Fresh sashimi - Weird to eat sashimi with Chinese food but the sashimi was very fresh! I would totally came here for sashimi only.
Eel with black bean sauce was done well. The eel was tender and the black bean sauce wasn't too overpowering.
Fried lobster was huge and the fried bits were very crisp. It was one of the best Chinese fried lobsters because it wasn't greasy and not too salty. We changed the lobster with rice in soup to a fried rice with lobster. The fried rice was very well done.
Steamed French Turbot - the fish was very firm and not much taste in it. Because it was served so late (after lobster fried rice) we were so full and couldn't eat much.
Our 3 vegetable dishes - Pea shoots with goji berries, Stir fry mushrooms and broccoli, and green beans with olives was light, not too salty and not greasy.
Overall, the food was very good. Mainly because they were not greasy and salty. But price wise, Yu Seafood is on the expensive side. Usually a $298 set dinner would include a crab and a lobster and may be a few more dishes.
It will still be my choice for seafood but only when I feel I could splurge on a dinner.
