    Prawns with veins not removed
    EN P.

    I ordered dinner from King Do Seafood restaurant for Sunday night dinner and was very disappointed by what i received. I ordered via Uber eats. My courier was excellent. When I opened the package to get started, I noticed that the deep fried prawns were packed in such a way that allowed the steam to vent, and kept them crispy. This was a nice touch. That's almost entirely the top end of why I liked this restaurants food. The wonton soup was lukewarm and bland. They provided me with some soy sauce that helped it out afterwards, but otherwise it was bland, and muted, with fresh vegetables at least, and cooked well for what it was. Very standard wonton soup. The deep fried prawns were.. nasty. Not only was the first prawn I bit into tough, chewy, and overcooked, but it became apparent that my order had been cooked a second time, and served to me. The inside of the prawns were rock hard, brittle, rubbery and overcooked shrimp, that did NOT have the veins removed, and the outside was golden brown. I've never heard of a deep fried prawn having darker colour inside than out, unless it was old food, REFRIED, to give to someone later. And the veins were still in?? Gross. Threw this dish away. As for my Mongolian beef.. there were undercooked pieces of beef. Flavour and heat was nice but... undercooked? Come on.. Ruined dinner for Sunday night, with all around bad food practice, at a high price for what you get- recycled food and undercooked beef, with a side order of bland soup. I'm sorry but I will not be ordering from here ever again. And I think my dinner is cancelled

    Revisited this place after a long time. Food and staff have all changed. I found the place to be sooo cold. The server who took our order was working while wearing a winter coat... I had to keep my winter coat on as well throughout my meal. The sweet and sour pork and fried rice were ok. The crepes for the Peking duck were stale.

    Lots of food

    I think the food is pretty much hit and miss. The first time I was here was with friends after the lunch rush last year. The food was way better then. Maybe because they were not as busy after the rush? Or maybe because a friend in our party knew the owner? It was a good experience. My next visit was a year later right when they opened. The food was not as good as the first time. Maybe we were the first customers? The bowls and spoons and cups were dirty. We had to ask for replacements. Be sure to check. The Chinese donut in the rice rolls tasted old. Either refried in old oil or reheated till it was hard. The congee was very watery and bland. We had to ask for soy sauce. The fried soy noodles was partially cooked and very salty. The har gow and eggplant with shrimp paste were much better. The star dish was the salted fish and chicken fried rice. That was very tasty. The chili sauce we were given was not very good, maybe we should have asked for chili oil or something instead. The service was good even though they were busy. More people came in about 30 minutes after they opened and was almost full. Prices have also gone up and it is now about $7 for a dim sum basket. Parking is available at the back or in front.

    My family has been eating here on and off for the past few years. When my parents and I had Dim Sum here a few weeks ago, I figured it was time I write a review. The restaurant is located on one of the main thoroughfares in Surrey; you would need to have prior knowledge of this restaurant location to eat here. There is a small parking lot in the front, plus more spaces in the back. My parents and I have always always managed to find a parking spot, though I suspect it's because we usually try to go later in the Dim Sum hours in an attempt to avoid the rush. We managed to snag one of the last small tables and were given menus and magic markers to circle our orders. (My one complaint here is that the markers were orange and made the orders hard to see). We decided on the following dim sum dishes: Prawn Rice Roll. There were only four prawns in the entire dish, but they were JUMBO and at least twice as big as the other prawn rice rolls I have tried in the past. Good for a table of four, else you will have to figure out your own unique way of cutting up the prawns. Steamed Scallop & Prawn Dumplings. My only complaint here is the dish only came with three dumplings, whereas I expected four (I guess that's only for steamed prawn dumplings). Besides that, I appreciated the generously sized scallop and shrimp roe to accompany the dumpling. Steamed Shanghai Dumplings (aka Pork Soup Dumplings). Having been spoiled by some awesome soup dumplings I've had in Vancouver restaurants, I had some unfairly high expectations. These dumplings seemed to only have a tiny bit of soup inside, and I admit I was a bit disappointed. While it is nice to know I have this option to order, I think I will save my Soup Dumpling orders for other restaurants. Halibut Rod with Shallots & Onions. After the experience with the soup dumplings (see above), this dish more than made up for it. I've tried the halibut rod at fancier restaurants before and found this dish seemed to contain nothing but skin on halibut bones, and always came away feeling a little ripped off. I was impressed with this dish: there was a ton of meat on each halibut rod and I happily chomped my way through this dish. I think I will vow to order this dish only when I'm at King Do. My impressions from this visit: while there is at least one higher end Seafood Restaurant a short drive away, I like the vibe. It is a place frequented by locals where the tea is hot, the vast majority of the food is good, prices palatable and service is friendly. Verdict: Foodies who wish to indulge their taste-buds can find higher end Seafood Restaurants a short drive down the road (you will pay more), but those who have a craving for Dim Sum and a good time conversing with friends can achieve that by choosing King Do Seafood Restaurant.

    Came by for some dim sum goodness as a group. Parking is available in the secret hidden lot behind the the building. There are also some spots in front. The inside is rather dated (looks like 1980s) but typical for the type of restaurant. This place also has live seafood (didn't try this time) and fresh BBQ (pork, duck etc.) that is also available for takeout. Staff were friendly, though we did have to wave them down a few times. As of the time of writing, dim sum are mostly some $6 a basket. I must say that the portion sizes are nice and large. Brings me back in time to the 1990s or so, when a basket was really a basket. Food quality is quite decent. Nothing was overcooked, and everything seemed quite fresh. My friends and I loaded up here. They definitely don't skimp out. As a result, we ended up ordering too much food. First world problem. The only complaint is that there were some flies inside that we had to wave away every once in a while. They do have an electric bug zapper on the wall though. We heard a few pops while eating. I will definitely be back in the future. Recommended.

    Came here for dim sum with friends. We ordered a lot of food. There were 5 of us and we ordered 16 items. OMG, we left super super full. The prices are way cheaper than Vancouver or Richmond. We had the following: Steamed Prawn Dumplings Steamed Porkshrimp Dumplings Steamed Chicken Feet in Black Beans Steamed Mini Sticky Rice Wrap Steamed BBQ Pork Buns Steamed Bean Curd Wrap in Oyster Deep Fried Pork Shrimp Dumplings Pan Fried Eggplants Shrimp Paste Shanghai Bun Chicken Fish Fried Rice A dish of BBQ pork, Roast Pig and BBQ Duck The portion size here are huge. It is like what dim sum used to be 10 or 15 years ago in Vancouver. Everything was very tasty. We go the Chrysanthemum po'er tea. Service was good. I will definitely be back.

    This restaurant is now called "New King Do Seafood Restaurant" as new ownership took over. It has been a number of years since I have eaten at this restaurant. For starters, the restaurant did not have any rice rolls available during their dim sum hours. I am not sure if it was because it was a weekday afternoon that affected the availability. Then our server processed our order incorrectly and missed an item. We had to bring it to her attention to get our order straighten out. Our teapot water was not refilled until we asked our server to do so. Basically, the service side was below average. The food was surprisingly good for Surrey standards. My parents told me it was their favourite restaurant after eating dim sum at a couple other restaurants in Surrey this past month. Portion size was good for the price. I liked that lotus leaf was used to make the sticky rice wrap. Sometimes restaurants would use another leaf to cut costs. There was bits of pork, a piece of sausage, a bit of duck egg yolk and garlic slices in the rice. It was flavourful and aromatic. Only downside was it was not served as hot as I would have liked. The middle of the wrap tasted a bit cold. The dumplings were made well. The congee was some of the best I have eaten recently. The noodles had wok hei and showed a skilled kitchen chef doing the cooking. There is not much parking spots available which is the downside. Credit card payment accepted. The food was enjoyable so it compensated for the underwhelming service. Ambiance is dated and nothing fancy. I would come back on a weekday to try other items. I would not stop by on a weekend and hunt for a parking spot.

    We ordered from King Do tonight as some wanted Chinese food and others wanted dim sum. They have an amazing variety of both. We were blown away by the portion sizes. The dumplings were humongous (almost the size of my fist) and equally as delicious. They were extremely generous with the chicken and shrimp in the House Special Fried Noodles. It all tasted fresh and so flavorful. We will definitely be ordering again!

    Came here on a Sunday after church because my grandparents were craving dim sum. I had zero expectations but was pleasantly surprised at the service and quality of food ! it wasn't too busy, maybe half the tables were full, but our server checked on us pretty frequently; providing napkins and refilling our tea, etc. I don't get dim sum often but I enjoyed everything we ordered, the dumplings were hot and tasty. My only inconvenience was that they missed an item, however we were already full when we realized (with leftovers too; portions were generous) so we didn't even mention it in the end . Parking can be difficult during peak hours, but I 100% recommend if you're in the area!

    Typical Chinese restaurant and expect that all dishes taste the same. They all taste very good. Presentation, taste,service, portions were good for a fair reasonable price like most rests would price theirs. They do have dim sum available to order for dinner and the owner is very nice to us returning customers. We come here often to eat meals and for special parties. They have a private dining room for parties as well and high chairs for young children. Service and food was quick and they will check up on you in between meals and refill water. Always love those fortune cookies as the end ! Lots of people come here and you will never wait in line for a table. Parking is easy to find. Clean washrooms and nice servers and nice looking restaurant. This is my fav Chinese restaurant in surrey!

    My wife and I were a little apprehensive about trying this restaurant, as there were no reviews on…read moreYelp, and those on Google were less-than-enthusiastic, although looking more in depth, it seems that the negative reviews were all several years old, and things seemingly had improved significantly in recent years. And while there are no shortage of seafood restaurants serving fresh crab on the Steveston waterfront, we wanted to give The Crab King a fair shake. I'm so glad that we did! My wife ordered a King Crab for herself which, after tearing it literally limb-from-limb, eventually declared it to be tied for her favorite boiled crab dish anywhere! High praise coming from such a consummate crustacean connoisseur! For myself and our son, an order of fish and chips, and the grilled chicken sandwich rounded out our order, both of which were crispy, tasty and delicious. Regarding the fish and chips, they appeared to be tempura-battered, and I'm still not 100% sure what type of fish it was. It may have been cod, but it seemed more like catfish, but either way, it was tender, juicy, flaky and delicious. No complaints here! More than anything, though, the employees here went out of their way to make our experience enjoyable. Our toddler son, who is normally extremely well-behaved in restaurants, was having a bit of a fuss here and there. Without prompting, the servers brought us a little radio to play music for him, as well as a couple of toys to play with, one of them being a wind-up truck that they gave to him to take home! He loved it there, and still plays with it at home! They even played peek-a-boo with him from behind the counter, soliciting laughs and giggles, for the better part of 15 minutes! That sort of customer service is nearly impossible to find, and should be praised and cherished wherever it is found! Whatever the past may have held for this restaurant, the Crab King is an entirely new animal now, serving up fresh seafood by uncommonly wonderful employees, in a fantastic floating location. They even offer to cook spot prawns and other seafood purchased from the boats docked at the nearby waterfront marketplace, for a modest fee. With all these things going for it, there's no doubt who wears the crown of Crab King in Steveston Harbor!

The first was my birthday last year, chosen by a friend (I'd never heard of it). This year I was asked where I wanted to go. I did not hesitate to say here! I couldn't be anything other than delighted in my decision--from the pleasantness inside, the wonderful view from our window, the delightful staff and the incredible food and drinks, this place is wonderful. Lucky me that my birthday was on a Wednesday so I could be totally influenced to have oysters-on-the-half shell due to a generous Wednesday night special. I do love raw oysters--and these were so tiny and briny and so incredibly good, I could have eaten five dozen! (I am kicking myself for not finding out what kind they were, but no matter. I would be happy with any they are serving here, I am sure.) I had already planned on having the Oysters Rockefeller (known here as Manor Rockefeller), and so, despite having just downed some oysters, I went ahead anyway and am glad I did! They were wonderful. And there was no real reason for me to pause for a moment in my decision, having already had oysters, because these were soooooo different. It was almost like eating a delicious oyster casserole in a shell. The Mediterranean Mussels were wonderful! (Notice, I was having a dinner of appetizers...) The broth they came in was beautiful (and drinkable, if one were so inclined). I loved the surprising tastiness of the Mama Lil's Peppers swimming around in it. At first I wondered if they would be too hot and compete with the flavor--overwhelming it--but no! Not at all. They were a perfect and flavorful touch. Absolutely wonderful. (And having said that, I know that "pepper heat" is an individual thing--I can tolerate a goodly amount, fyi--I just didn't taste these as hot at all.) Our server, Drew, was immensely helpful (and always charming!) He paired our food with a delicious wine. I guess we would assign my bowl of clam chowder to the dessert category--very thick and creamy--along with a lovely after-dinner cocktail, made by the wonderful and delightful bartender, Sherry. She made me a lovely mocktail to start--I asked Drew to have the bartender just make something up on a whim. It was pretty, colorful and delish with what in it, I have no idea. But, not only was it delectable, it was a vision! All festive and fuchsia, with a "bartender's cherry," and a hot pink umbrella. When I learned Sherry made it, I was so happy because I remembered her from last year--very skilled and very fun to chat with. A wonderful birthday--I highly recommend the Manor.

It was delicious, but for the smaller portions of fish, I felt it was a bit overpriced compared to other fish and chips I've had for cheaper and with larger portions of fish. My friend ordered the Ground Chuck Cheeseburger with Bacon and Fries. It was juicy and a filling choice. The main draw of this restaurant is definitely the amazing views that almost everyone reviewing this restaurant mentions. Plus, the fact that there really aren't a lot of restaurants to choose from in this area. I think the next time I dine here I would try to time it during their Happy Hour or Brunch, which they claim is "the best".

This was not a fun soup to eat... It was also served with a crumbly muffin, which was not my favorite. The Mussels & Clams in white wine sauce was tasty, though it had the same issue of being sandy.

I believe our smaller ones may have been the Fat Bastard and Sweet Select, while the larger one was off menu from Washington. On the topic of busyness, we didn't get our oysters until very late into the meal - nearly an hour. They actually had forgotten our order, and we had to remind them, which they said "soon" until "soon" ended up being nearly 20 minutes! We were told that a shucker was working on it, only to see that tray being sent to another table... sad!

We arrived in time for our reservation but there was no one at the front. We waited for a few minutes for someone to notice we were there, and were immediately seated. It's a nice looking place - very classic whites, and feels like a fine dining restaurant. We decided to try the following: - Beef Carpaccio: Good. Maybe a bit light on the meat, as it was buried by the arugula and pickled shallots, so seemed unbalanced, but overall tasted great - Seafood Linguini: Mixed. Linguini was good. Scallops were really good and tender. Mussels were tiny. Red snapper was tough and dry. As a dish, it was OK, but could be better. Seafood is seasonal, so I'd think they would be better off rotating what seafood is used. - LuLu Island: OK. Same issue as the linguine. Prawns were fine. Mussels tiny. Red snapper wasn't enjoyable. Broth had flavour, but didn't come out very hot. Service was pleasant but slow. I only saw one server and one busser, so not enough staff to handle 6 or 7 tables they had. Starter came n reasonable time, but main dishes seemed to take over 20min. Took awhile to get our plates cleared, and probably 15+ minutes to get the bill. Overall, it was OK. Food was OK, but not special. Service was nice enough, but couldn't keep up with timing. Glad I got to try it, but not special enough to go back.
