| - Lunch specials all the way. I forget when the lunch hour finishes, but I have gotten here around three and was still able to order off the specials menu. This is always the go to spot when I want to treat my parents to a meal. It is only becoming more difficult to convince them to go out with the economy, but with the mere mention of Capital they are getting ready. It has a lot to do with the prices, quality, and service.
The prices are cheap for the amount that you get. I am not a fan of getting a large plate of substandard and Capital Seafood does not make me feel like I am lowering my expectations.
The whole fried fish in sweet and sour sauce ($7.95) comes out so crisp that you can eat the bones around the edge. An order of kung pao tofu ($5.95) comes out looking like the Great Pyramids topped with whole chilies, peanuts, and chunks of scallions. My sister's favorite seafood chow fun in gravy ($7.95) is always hot and filled with gai lan and a variety of shrimp, fish cakes, imitation crab (only bummer), squid, and fish fillets. The Peking pork chops (6.95) are massive and plenty. I wish they were more crisp. The fried battering gets soft quicker than the ones at other restaurants. The bonus of being connected to the Vietnamese restaurant is that I can order a che ba mau. They make my favorite version in Vegas. I recently had a bad experience with this dessert at a different place, but Capital restored my faith. In the end, my mom and I packed up the leftovers and had enough food for the rest of the day.
