There's a reason why Oc & Lau has two locations! Solid spot for family style Vietnamese dining…read more Parking is in a big plaza shared with many other businesses, but we've never had too much trouble finding a spot. Service was good for how busy they are! What we got: - Crab fried rice - delicious and so buttery - Steamed clams - not my choice but it was a good choice for others in our party - House special lobster - a must, especially if celebrating - Seafood platter for Thai hotpot w/ vermicelli noodles - my family always likes a good Thai hotpot - Mung bean pudding dessert - not too sweet, and I believe this is complimentary Everything tasted really good, 10/10 no notes. The menu is HUGE and I'd want to come here again with a big group just to order different plates.

We had initially passed Oc & Lau Restaurant a few months back when we were getting dessert nearby…read more We were definitely intrigued by the amount of people waiting outside and could see through the window all the food on the table. After a quick look at the menu, we knew this was someplace we would enjoy. We were in town on a Sunday evening and knew we wanted to check it out. With the two locations, we got on the Yelp waitlist knowing they were both nearby each other. (Our mistake was not getting on the waitlist earlier, so we did have a wait a good while.). We had perused other Yelper reviews and had a list in mind of what we wanted. Definitely take the time to look at the menu beforehand because it is long and extensive. Right off the bat, out of razor clams! Bummer. Nonetheless, we still got a bunch of things. * Grilled King Scallop with Fish Eggs $27 - Nicely cooked. 4/5 * Grilled Escargot with Garlic Butter & Peppercorn $16 - Yum! 5/5 * Mango Squid Salad $14 - This was noted in so many reviews, and it did not disappoint. We ended up getting a second order! 5/5 * Crabs & Shrimp Fried Rice $17 - I was not a fan. It was just fried rice, nothing special. It lacked seasoning and definitely needed the accompanying sauce. 3/5 * Deep Fried Smelt Fish $15 - Another winner! I haven't seen smelt fish this large before and it was so good, we got a second order. 5/5 * Coconut Swirly Escargot with Basil Leaves $14 - This came in a pot with such a delicious sauce. I would have loved some noodles or something to eat all that sauce up with. 5/5 * Spicy Seasoned Grilled Shrimp $17 - This shrimp were a good size and did not disappoint. 4/5 * Escargot with Tamarind $15 - Our least favorite of the escargots we ordered. It wasn't bad, just okay. 3/5 * Complimentary dessert - I have no idea what was in this che beyond coconut cream and rice, but it was pretty good. I probably would have ordered it. Service was okay. Because they are so busy, they definitely do try to rush you out. We were still eating and someone came and brought dessert to our table. Mind you, we were literally still putting food in our mouths and I looked at the waitress perplexed. We told her we were still eating and going to order more, so she took the dessert away. There's definitely this anxiousness about the staff to turn over the tables, which I get with the long lines. But I think they could have addressed it a bit differently by simply asking instead of assuming.

Went here on a whim since they're open until midnight, and I'm so glad we did. The first thing that…read moresurprised me was how affordable everything was compared to other seafood boil spots. You really get a lot for the price, and the shrimp were HUGE. The sauce was packed with flavor -- the perfect balance of spice, butter, and seasoning. Simple, messy, and absolutely delicious. Service was also great. There was only one server working, but he stayed on top of everything and made sure everyone was taken care of. The place itself is a little small, but it actually made the experience feel more cozy, and we got seated right away since it wasn't too busy. Definitely feels like a hidden gem and one of those spots you almost don't want too many people finding out about. Will definitely be back.

A friend and I went on a search for seafood locally. We found this place, Boil daddy and decided we…read moreshould go because of the seafood and the Cajun-style seasoning along with a seafood boil. The place has a basic setup of table and chairs and each table is covered with white butcher paper. I had blacked shrimp on skewers, boiled eggs, and fried instant noodles. The shrimp came with a buffalo dipping sauce. The place is in an unassuming small strip mall. The place is quiet, and family run. The place has a busy vibe to it. That is to say there are diners, pickup orders, and food delivery going on. It does take a bit longer to get the food. So, I was anticipating shrimp on skewers that were blackened and well seasoned. What they mean is deep fried and well seasoned. The dipping sauce was good and boiled eggs are boiled eggs. The shrimp had a nice crunch to them and were not soaked in oil. The fried instant noodles are surprisingly bland. I asked for more buffalo sauce to dress it a bit, but to no avail. This is a dish that needs a heat scale with the seasoning. The noodles are well prepared and the texture is perfect, but they were served luke warm and with only Tabasco sauce on the table. Also, my friended order the shrimp boil over rice and found the potatoes undercooked. This place is worth the money and with a few adjustments on seasoning, remembering that blackened shrimp or any food has a chard appearance to it and does not come to the table as fried food. When I'm back in Anaheim, I will return to Boil Daddy, it will try a different location, since this is a chain restaurant.

Quite possibly the last seafood boil that offers combo packages!…read more Came at 5pm and there was only one table aside from us. However, the service was quick and the ambiance was clean and casual. We ordered the #2 combo which was $72 (crawfish, shrimp, lobster, sausage, potato & corn) was included. The crawfish was live so they charged an additional $3 which brought the total to $75. The lobster tails were decent and cut in half. The restaurant was kind enough to bring a side of the torpedo sauce for us to dip. The seafood was fresh so no complaints!

Service was patient, describing the food, and making suggestions. They're busy so it can take a little effort to flag down someone. We ordered one of the preset meals and added an extra pound of crab claws for our party of 3. I'm not a huge fan of Cajun flavors but the Raisin' Cajun sauce that combines their Cajun, garlic butter and lemon pepper flavors is delicious! It's a tad expensive and worth it for a special occasion or treat.

They were also giving out complimentary Cajun or regular fries with our order, so that was a nice bonus. The Cajun fries were wonderful. They also offered ice cream at the end. We got naked shrimps with Raisin Cajun sauce. I like that you have the option to have peeled shrimps. The sauce was pretty addicting. It made me keep eating despite feeling pretty full. We also got some add-on items with the shrimps. Only weird thing I noticed is the boiled egg was added with the shell intact instead of being peeled. Kinda strange since it wouldn't absorb flavors that way.

Sad, sad... We sat the booth table by the window where we'd used be in the past. We got only 2 appetizers, coconut shrimps w pina colada sweet sauce, Shrimp crab Flautas. I tried Mexican lager tab for the first time. Big surprise for the lager! So refreshing, so good....I loved it. I think the best lager so far. My wife liked flautas w shrimps crab, spicy chili dipping sauce. My wife said they didn't have any pasta w marinara sauce all the time. Only alfredo... We wish they add more pasta dishes w marinara sauce. Today we had a great time right after the 4th of July. We always liked fresh baked sour bread w creamy butter to start. Interior, ambiance, service are all great, nothing changed. Pros Parking is huge. No problem to shop and enjoy dining including watching movies all day. Cons Pasta menu: No marinara sauce Tacos: only soft shell, hope they make hard shell.

My work team had our team luncheon at the Market Broiler last week - and we were served by the…read morewonderful and attentive Ernesto - who was training Brittany (who also was great!). It was a Tuesday lunch time, right before the rush - but we were seated promptly since we had reservations. Despite it's size, the Market Broiler has great acoustics - no issues hearing our end of the table. Selection is great - a bit of a bummer that the daily specials offering Cioppino is ONLY for Sunday - guess I'll have to make the trip back to try it out. We started out with a generous helping of their freshly baked sourdough bread, accompanied by butter cream. This would be perfect to go with a side of New England Clam Chowder! I opted for the Truffleyaki Butterfish - 7 oz. miso marinated black cod with a truffleyaki glaze, jasmine rice and broccolini. The dish came out in about 15 to 20 minutes - plenty of time to chat with my colleagues. The fish came out sizzling - perfect scoop of fluffy, moist, cilantro jasmine rice, and several sticks of broccolini. The fish was fresh, good size portion for lunch - might be a bit light for dinner. Everyone else on my side of the table (and as far down as I could see the rest of my table) also enjoyed their entrees. Service was attentive - drinks were promptly refilled - plates were cleared. I definitely plan to be back - at least on a Sunday to check out their Cioppino. Hard to find a decent Cioppino in the area - the last place I had great Cioppino was in Monterey, CA.

We stopped by here on my birthday for a nice evening dinner. Got there a little before sunset. There's just something magical about eating outside during a sunset, especially at the Orange Plaza. The restaurant has such a cool look and vibe! We started off with the Hamachi crudo, salmon ceviche, and a bowl of clam "chowdah". The crudo was absolutely delicious, highly recommend. The salmon ceviche was really good but a bit heavy on the sauce for me. The clam chowder had whole clams in the shell throughout. That was fun to pick them out! For entrees we got the lean and mean plate with sea bass. It comes with salad and rice, we substituted the rice for black beans. We also got the skirt steak "bulgogi" which was served on top of mushrooms and bok choy with a sweet soy sauce. They accidentally brought out salmon instead of sea bass, but were very apologetic. They brought out a sea bass on the side and comped the entree to make up for it. Great service right there! The salmon and seabass were both delicious and cooked perfectly. The steak was tender and juicy, full of flavor. As a birthday gift they brought out a thai milk tea blondie sundae which was soooo good! Get it if you like sweets. I wish the owners all the best in their future endeavors, they created a great restaurant that many will miss. Thanks to all the servers, hostesses, cooks, and bussers as well for making my birthday dinner so special!

*To-Go Review* My partner and I went to visit The Crawfish…read moreHut since there was a BOGO event so we got 2 lbs of head-on shrimp in total. We placed our order online and it took around 45 mins. We arrived at the restaurant and the cashier helped us right away. We got our order in a brown takeout bag and grabbed a few of their bibs & gloves. The bag definitely felt heavy. They double bagged our order so it would not spill whatsoever. They also gave us a bunch of sliced lemons and two containers of salt & pepper. Let me tell you, these shrimps were BIG. They were very meaty and super flavorful. I adored the seafood boil sauce that it comes in because it had SO much garlic and I really liked how tasty this was. The shrimp absorbed all the flavor, but it did not stop us from dipping it in more of the sauce to make it even more tasty! We even squeezed some of the lemon into the bag as well. It is such a messy meal, but so fun if you're a seafood lover. I think it's worth trying if you have never tried a seafood boil before. This was more of a Vietnamese-Cajun styled seafood boil, so I found it to be even more tastier!

We started with a 1/2 dozen Kumomoto Oysters. I enjoy a splash of cocktail sauce and horseradish on mine. For dinner, I went with the Farmed Colombian Tilapia and my boyfriend had the Shrimp & Scallop Combo. I went with sautéed fresh spinach and Sweet Buttered Brentwood Corn, while he chose Brussels Sprouts with Mac and Cheese. They offer a basket of incredibly warm bread and butter. We skipped the option for dessert this time. They have indoor, bar, and outside patio seating. In inclement weather, ceiling fans or heaters help patrons stay comfortable. The restrooms are clean and the tvs show a variety of sports on them. Reservations are encouraged, especially when the Angels or Ducks are playing a home game.

Food *Clam Chowder, cup ($9.50): 4/5. Rich, creamy, well-balanced. My girlfriend calls it the best she's had, but $9.50 for a cup is a tough sell on value alone. *Yellowtail Carpaccio ($19.50): fresh and clean, but a modest portion (5-6 pieces) for the price just feels like a big upsell. I'd ask for the dressing on the side; it comes drenched otherwise and would drown out the fish. *Fisherman's Shellfish Platter ($55): this is the best value on the menu. Great variety, shucked and prepared beautifully. The rock crab is broken and cut for easy cracking. Easily serves two as a medium lunch with a couple apps. The kitchen was accommodating on swaps. We traded mussels for extra littleneck clams w/ no issue. Alcohol Check *Lalo Blanco Tequila, shot ($14.50): If you're curious what a shot goes for at any given place. Would I Return Rating? Yes. For the shellfish platter specifically. I'd come back to work through more entrées and apps around it, but the platter is the main reason to return.
