    Crab House (connected to Fish House) is one of those spots getting a lot of buzz online, especially for their crab roe over rice and noodles--and yes, the hype is real. We got both versions, and they absolutely delivered. The roe sauce is rich, briny, and deeply savory, coating every bite of rice and noodles with a luxurious, ocean-y umami. It's bold but well-balanced--definitely a standout. We also ordered the acorn squirrel fish, which reminded us of a sweet-and-sour whole fish. Super crispy on the outside, tender on the inside, and served with a bright, tart sauce that had just the right kick. Really flavorful and satisfying. They do offer a seafood boil here, which we didn't get this time, but it looked and smelled amazing at nearby tables--something we'd come back for. The glass noodles with crab, however, didn't quite match the rest. The noodles were soft and infused with mushroom flavor, which was a bit overpowering, and the crab itself didn't add much--barely any meat and not a ton of impact. Just OK. Ambience is minimal but clean. Not a lot of frills, but it works. Service was alright--not rude, but a bit inattentive. We had to follow up on rice we ordered with the fish, which took a while to arrive. All in all, a strong 4 stars. A few misses, but the crab roe dishes and that sweet & sour-style fish are worth coming for. We'll be back.

    Crab meat sauce with noodle
    Cathy W.

    The food is definitely delicious and flavorful. Although the pricing is higher than expected, but it's worth a try. Besides the crab meat noodle, I actually really like the soup rice. It was sweet and great seafood taste. The service was good. Waiter was very friendly and gave some suggestions since we're first time guests there. This would be a place I would return back.

    Crab Roe Soup Buns. They do not need any sauce.
    Brenda C.

    This restaurant is a new addition to the plaza, and we were curious to try it out. The owners also run Wu's Fish House next door, and they share the same kitchen. We ordered crab roe soup dumpling buns and crab roe tofu over rice. While waiting, we were given appetizers: peanuts, pickled radishes, and marinated cloud ears, with the latter standing out the most. After a lengthy wait, I asked about our order, and the waitress apologized, explaining they had limited cooks. We finally received the crab roe tofu over rice, which my husband and I shared. The flavor was delicious, but the mushy rice was disappointing. It was also puzzling that our appetizers were served after our main entree. We waited a while, sipping tea ($3) before the waitress brought out the soup dumplings. The dumplings were very good, with on-point flavor. I recommend not using the fish sauce, as it disrupts the delicate taste. The skin was thicker than expected, but the dumplings were still sublime. Although the restaurant offers more than crab roe dishes, we focused on these for our first visit. We were quite happy with our selections. Here are our ratings: -Crab roe soup buns: 4/5 stars -Crab roe tofu over rice: 4/5 stars -Service: 3.5/5 stars -Atmosphere: 3.5/5 stars Overall, we give this place 4/5 stars and plan to revisit to try other dishes.

    Attractive Shanghai style food! Didn't order the signature crab roe over rice or noodles since it is pretty pricey and I am not a big fan of crab. However those dishes I oreded really bring me back to southern China! Shanghai and Jiangsu area. Miss the food in China so much. This is great.

    Came across this place and were guided to a table by the hostess, who then realized the table had plates and nothing was cleared. We sat for like 10-15 minutes in the bench and finally seated. The service throughout the dinning experience is what made me give this restaurant a 3/5. The staff service was really delayed and some plates never even came to us, we ended up canceling them. Overall the food we ordered wasn't anything to rave to home about. It was average, but we were so hungry. I wouldn't run back to the restaurant for the specialty crab plate, but I'm glad that we tried it once. I wished they had more plate options. The ambience was decent and just a small shop, just had several tables, but nothing that sticks out.

    Pan-fried crab cakes

    All the things I ordered were great. I got the seaweed salad and crab cakes for starters. I ate alone but these two appetizers are probably portioned to be shared by at least two people. The eel rice bowl came out a little later than I thought it would but it was hot. Unfortunately it wasn't as my hopes had been tricked to expect it to look like accompanied by broccoli as on the ipad menu picture. Upon asking staff told me that it was just a picture. I might get a plate of broccoli next time if I come with a party as the broccoli and carrots really did the menu picture justice in selling it to me. Other than that service was fine, I don't like to be bothered every five minutes by staff asking about the food and I was only ever approached by staff when they had my food since I ordered everything from the ipad. Chinese music was playing in an otherwise quiet and vacant restaurant at least before 3 pm on a Thursday. I would like to visit again. I thought the crab cakes were a little salty but otherwise everything was fine.

    Sweet and sour spare ribs
    Karen K.

    My love for seafood brought me to this new restaurant conveniently located in the hmart shopping center. It is on the 2nd floor above the korean skincare store. The restaurant actually shared the same space as the fish house. One side is the fish house and the other side is the crab house. We it's for the crab house because it was something different. We were seated at the window with a great view of the shopping center. It wasn't all that busy around 12pm on a Saturday. We ordered the crab roe over noodles, can roe and roast pork soup dumplings, and sweet and sour pork ribs. Woke waiting for our order, they brought our salted peanuts, black fungus salad, and this pickled dish. Loved the black fungus salad. It was light and refreshing! The pickled dish wasn't something I would normally gravitate towards so it was barely touched. The soup dumplings and crab roe noodles came out first. At first sight, the amount of noodles that came with the crab roe was very little. I know crab roe is expensive but they could of given more noodles, which is relatively cheap. Overall price for this dish was $32.95 so although it was very delicious, it 32.95 wasn't worth the price for the portion size. There wasn't much flavor to the crab roe and roasted duck soup dumplings. There was a slight duck flavor which definitely covered up the crab roe flavor. I would recommend just getting the plain crab roe dumplings on their own. Last dish was the sweet and sour pork ribs, which was very flavorful and tender. The meat was fall off the bone and the sauce was more of a tomato sauce. Overall, an OK place to check out but don't expect to walk away feeling full. All serving sizes are quite small for the price so something to keep in mind if you decide to give this place a try.

    Decided to try this place out for lunch. Ordered their crab noodles, steamed buns with crab meat, soup with crab meat and appetizer Szechuan chicken. Everything came out luke warm and the noodles was cold. The idea is good, but feels like everything was just prepackaged and warmed back up then served. Also the Szechuan chicken with cucumber appetizer was terrible. It was way too dry and the bland. Will not be coming back.

For our entrees, we had the seafood paella and penne vodka. The portions were a nice size, and the paella came with colossal shrimp that were so good. Everything was well-seasoned and satisfying. They also offer mocktails, which was a great touch. Overall, we spent about $120 on appetizers, mocktails, and entrees, and it was well worth it.

Bar was hopping with the after work crowd. The restaurant has high ceilings and all hard surfaces so the acoustics are very lively. Bartenders were preoccupied with their regulars, but they were friendly and attentive. Cocktails were pricey, but on the mark. Blondie had a margarita and said it was as good as I make. I had Hendricks up with olives. Nicely chilled glass and shaken to perfection. When our friends arrived we were seated in the front of the dining room along the windows. Acoustics a little better but I still had some trouble hearing my wife across the table. The wine list had a decent selection and even some good values mixed in with the typical 3X prices. We had a couple of bottles of Sancerre which arrived properly chilled and went well with our food. Oyster selection was very good. I let the chef pick some cold water varieties from PEI. The Bad Boys and Momma Mia were excellent. Briney, properly chilled and nice accoutrements. We also had calamari and zucchini which were perfectly fried. The bread was pretty good too. Worth noting. For entrees we had the Branzino (2), Sole and Halibut. They were served with a small portion of tasty potatoes and generous pile of sauteed spinach. All on the mark. Server was very attentive but not overbearing. Perfect pace. Bussers cleared plates timely. We had a nice relaxing and enjoyable evening. Solid dining experience. We will definitely return. Perhaps sit at the bar next time. The one pecular thing about the place is that you need to get on an elevator to go to the restrooms which are located in the basement. I would prefer to use the stairs but apparently, they are for staff only.

We ordered some apps --entrees (some ordered seafood boil) others plated meals.. dessert as well. Everyone loved the flavored lemonade. Standouts for me where the crab fries--omg, every bit of a fry in this place was so delicious... from the plain, crab, and sweet potato. They were all prepared perfectly with the right amount of seasoning. My husband was very disappointed in his wings... it seems as though the recipe or chef changed since the last time we were here for the wings and the garlic noodles--they were both very underwhelming. My Canadian King salmon was perfectly medium which I appreciated.. not very seasoned, but I really liked the texture. Some of the party didn't really like how spicy their boil was and with not enough sauce--and their boils are pretty pricey, so that was a bit of a bummer. I heard good things about the dessert, specifically the key lime pie. They were very thoughtful in playing Stevie Wonder's Happy Birthday for our birthday girl.. it was definitely the extended version lol.. but it was really cute. Love the music videos playing on the screen in the center of the room. Also a cute touch. Overall, there were some misses, but I believe the hits were spot on, hence my rating.. I would return to try the rest of the menu.

I visited Steakhouse 85 for the first time on Thursday, March 19th. We all know the food is fantastic, but what impressed me even more was the employees. When I walked in, I was greeted by the hostess, who had a big smile and bright eyes. She showed us to our table swiftly, and during our time there, her smile and warm welcome continued as she greeted other incoming diners. Our waiter appeared quickly with the first question would you like something to drink, water, etc. After the initial greeting, and now ready to take our order, he excitedly told us he had the pleasure of tasting most of the items he suggested. His excitement about the food he had the "pleasure of tasting" (his words) was apparent. Also, I had the pleasure of speaking to Monica, a manager at Steakhouse 85. She was kind, thoughtful, insightful, and well spoken. I could easily see why she holds that position and could have talked to her as I would a good friend. How a great manager like Monica gets those around them to react positively is by example; in other words, it's the ripple effect. It is easy to see that she is the type of person who, no matter what she does or where she goes in life, success will follow. Also, I want to say thank you to the owner and all the managers because hiring the right employees, from the cooks, busboys, and servers, is not an easy job in itself. The key to success is not just about the food; it's also the employees who add to the establishment's success! Great Job To All Of You! Kindness should never be taken for granted these days! Frances
