  • This review is based on dinner. We had the mother's day combo for $288, which comes with a lot of good stuff: -18 pieces sashimi -Lobster/pumpkin cream soup -scallion chicken (cold) -scallop & shrimp in herb sauce -Giant lobster -Steamed fish -Lobster fried rice -Papaya/white fungus dessert We added a mushroom e-fu noodle on top as we were afraid seafood wouldn't be filling enough. The highlight is definitely the lobster. Big chunky pieces with lots of meat. I love the fried garlic style that I don't know the English name for. Sashimi is much more fresh than your typical AYCE place. The cold chicken is pretty standard. The lobster fried rice probably should have been bigger portion but there are good chunks of lobster "goo" in it. So it tasted good. The scallop shrimp dish was also very good. Big pieces of scallop and shrimps. That herb sauce was superb. Now for the bad...the e-fu noodle was pretty meh. Hardly any scallop in it. Mostly noodles and sauce. Not even much mushroom. My mom threw a fit about the "steamed" fish. Before the food came, they told us they don't have sea bass and offered another type of fish. We had no choice so ok...the problem was that instead of a live steamed fish, they gave us fried fish. In Chinese food, you steam fresh fish. Frying is for dead or frozen fish. Also, its quite common for Chinese seafood places to do this...the combo price is for 6lb lobster but they will bring the lobster over. They will nearly always pick one that's bigger and tell you to pay the difference per pound. You'll never get exactly 6lb so you always end up paying more than what the menu says. So I would have given this place a 4 star otherwise if they didn't screw us on the steamed fish. I can let the bigger lobster thing slide since it's common practice. My mom really wanted to eat steamed fish, not fried. This is why Chinese are so good at doing business. They always find a way to screw you. They have a fish market right next door and could have easily given us any other fresh fish but wanted to unload their dead fish stock first. It's a pricey restaurant and final damage was about $400 for 5 people including tax and tip.
