    twice cooked pork
    Lucy M.

    Stopped by Haiyu for dinner with a group of 5 (plus one kiddo) last week. We got there around 6:15PM and were seated immediately but within ten minutes there was a pretty significant line at the front of the restaurant, so definitely recommending coming earlier if you don't want to wait. Didn't remember to get a picture of everything we ordered, but our favorites were the salt and pepper noodle fish (3rd pic) and the twice cooked pork (1st pic). Crab fried rice (market price, $49.99 + $12 for glutinous rice) was also huge and very tasty. On one hand, you know for sure they gave you the whole crab because it's all mixed in with the fried rice. On the other hand, it's kind of a pain to have to use shell crackers to get into some of the crab legs. Loved that there were plenty of fried crab guts in the main shell, and the flavor of everything was on point. Not sure I would get this again just because of the hassle of eating the crab and the high price point, but definitely a good dish for patient crab lovers. Only remembered to take a picture of the twice cooked pork by the time we were halfway through it, so just know the portion size is actually about double the amount in the photo. This was extremely well-cooked; the skin wasn't too firm or chewy but was super succulent and soft, and the fat was rendered perfectly. Brown sauce had excellent flavor and tasted great over steamed rice. Salt and pepper noodle fish was the surprise star of the show for everyone at dinner. I believe this is small white fish battered and fried to perfection. The batter was so thin and light and crisp, and the fish was flaky and succulent despite being so small. The dish was also not too oily/greasy at all. Mixed in with the fish were bits and pieces of fried aromatics like garlic chips and julienned ginger, which really helped amp up the excellent flavor of the dish without making it too salty either. Definitely a must order IMO! Not pictured were the garlic sautéed pea shoots (market price, $17.99 last week) and the seafood pot with tofu (filled with lots of clams, shrimp, possibly sliced geoduck?, and squid). A bit bland in flavor after everything else, but the tofu was soft and silky. After I finished eating, the live fish tanks in the back of the restaurant helped keep the kiddo entertained while the other adults cleaned up the rest of the food. Their menu is huge and encompasses more than just seafood. It's slightly pricier than other Chinese restaurants, but we thought the quality of the dishes were also impressive enough to warrant the money. Service can be a bit slow but I think they're still getting into the groove since the place is so new. We'll definitely be back to try other things.

    This was our first visit to the restaurant. The place is clean and looks newly opened, which creates a nice first impression. The staff were friendly 。We tried several dishes--they were decent, though nothing really stood out. We eat out often, so we are a bit particular, but we'd still consider giving it another try in the future. 这是我们第一次来这家餐厅。餐厅很干净,看起来是新开的,第一印象不错。工作人员也很友好 .我们点了几道菜,味道还可以,虽然没有特别让人惊艳的。不过我们平时经常在外就餐,口味也比较挑剔,还是会考虑以后再来试试。

    Food was delicious. It was a big family dinner. I especially like the tofu dish that was ordered & the soup. It was cooked well & good flavor. Wish I could have taken the leftover but I'm just visiting so no place to store the food. But would definitely go back the next time I'm back in the area.

    First time I went in was a Valentine's Day, it was too busy. So I didn't really like it. Second time I went was Chinese new year so it was fully booked I gave it a third try bc I am a big fan of Chinese seafood. OMG, the food is amazing there. And the owner is super friendly especially the lady boss. I started to go multiple times whenever we're available. The lady boss recommended something really good. First time I ate such good hometown flavor food after leaving China for 10 years. Highly recommend the fried fish and the Chinese style crab

    I'm so glad they opened this new restaurant. Their original restaurant was Wu's Superbowl, opened years ago, and had 5 star food in a 1 star location. The owners had humble beginnings as a stand in a Supermarket, but when that closed they took over a location in a restaurant in the same plaza. While every other business around them failed, they thrived, and now with this move, they've evolved into this beautiful place. The décor is on point, and finally comes close to matching the quality of the food. I can guarantee you the best prepared Alaskan King Crab you've ever had. Tonight we tried the Spicy Lobster, and it was fantastic. Also had the tofu seafood soup, and the pork chops. These were all dishes we've never tried before, and they were excellent. Literally everything the chef makes here is amazing. He has such a good palate. While the food tends to be a touch spicy for me (I'm a woos with spice), the flavor makes the burn worth it. For anyone who enjoys more spice, they will go as spicy as you request. For me it's nice to have a restaurant where I don't have to order either dumplings or the sizzling beef. Their food is authentic, from the chicken feet to the intestines, all the way up to the Lobster. The pumpkin desserts are the best I've had, and are addicting. We usually order those early so I'm not too full to eat fresh when they come out. Come here. You won't be disappointed.

    Its a cute place to dine in. They remodel this place from the previous business and its look classy. Pretty busy for a Thursday night and server immediately inform me that if we purchase 4 dishes, they have this promotion of free lobster. Food is delicious, however it took them more than 40 minutes for the rice noodles to be out while the rest of the food already out 15 minutes after we order and since they are new, they are still everywhere. Servers kept sending the order to the wrong table. They are yelling at each other. Almost all the tables around me missing one order. Its a little chaotic. Will definitely come back to try other seafood dishes they offer.

    Ok to explain my rating; the 3/5 was on food only. Service, menu selection, presentation all that was a 5/5. My friend and I wanted seafood for lunch so we googled a place near us. We saw the so so reviews but still wanted to try it out. The menu is great, they offer a variety of things and pricing can go from low to high here. Our waitress was amazing so sweet and very helpful. We ordered way more that the pictures shown. Our bill was well over $200 for lunch because we wanted to try it all. Out of all the dishes we got our favorite was definitely the shrimp, crab and a stir fry not shown. They have fish tanks in the back of the restaurant so we were both thinking yes this is fresh! The food wasn't bad at all, the other dishes not mentioned just were lacking flavor. But the shrimp dish was the most flavorful and spicy. Our experience was pretty decent overall, and my rating initially was a 4/5.... But shortly after leaving we both got sick tummies and were glued to the bathroom the rest of the day. Not sure what it was but I normally have a stomach of steel and well it felt terrible. Not saying food poisoning but something we ate was definitely past expiration date.

    Lobster was in the house when you spend more than $80.00 at this time 11/10/2024

    Our dinner was amazing! Our children didn't want to change zsichuaneese food for seafood but they loved it so much! They asked when can we comeback again? Thank you! Service was great and delicious food

    Real life seafood

    The restaurant specializes Chinese seafood with live seafood tanks. The dishes are delicious with spicy dishes too. Remember to tone down the spiciness if you r not a spicy person. When we went there were only 2 waitress working managing the whole operation. From seating, ordering, serving, cashier, table clearing. Service was Ok. But 1 more person would definitely help. As noted we did enjoyed the 3 dishes we ordered.

    Everything we had were amazing. The staffs were attentive on a friday's night. The place is kinda small and not many tables. We will be back to try more seafood they have.

    Salt and pepper fish
    Leonard L.

    My wife and I came here for lunch after church. The Salt and Pepper fish was delicious and our server suggested the Cauliflower and celery was good choice. The serve was prompt and we would come again. The seating was very nice.

    We were a party of 7 and was able to reserve a table. The food was good overall, but not exceptional, and the service was fast.

The decor on the walls is fun. The blue is happy and feels ocean like. They have a television to keep you comfortable and occupied while eating. The air conditioning was not working well so it was a bit HOT. They apologized for the inconvenience. Food: 3.5 STARS I ordered a combo with fried shrimp and fish. I subbed out the french fries for corn and potatoes. The shrimp were my favorite part of the meal. The shrimp were juicy, fresh and big. The shrimp sauce was delicious. The shrimp were cooked perfectly. The fried fish was cooked to order and came out hot. It was cooked perfectly, but it was just ok. It satisfied my craving and the hot sauce served with it was spicy and tasty. The hush puppies were good, along with the corn and potatoes with the garlic butter medium heat. Overall I had a good experience and left full. It's not the best fish, but it's not bad. I would definitely recommend and order the shrimp again. I'm going to try something else on the menu next time. I feel I need to go back when the air conditioning is working properly. I am also curious about other menu items.
