I really wanted to like this place, but I just don't get the hype…read more This was my first time trying New Ocean. I've heard about this place basically my whole life, and after my favorite Chinese restaurant, Pearl East, closed, I kept hearing people tell me, "Try New Ocean, they're the same owners." Well... I'm sorry, but there is absolutely no way this tasted like Pearl East. I ordered the orange chicken lunch combo. The food came out insanely fast. I literally went to wash my hands and came back and my food was already sitting there. It was hot, so I'll give them that, but the orange chicken and sauce just didn't taste fresh to me. The sauce was very runny and honestly tasted more like something I could grab from the frozen food section at the grocery store. Then came the bigger issue. I specifically asked what vegetables came in the rice because I did not want onions. I was told peas and carrots. My food came out with a LOT of onions. I was pretty grossed out because I had specifically asked beforehand. I told the server and, to his credit, he offered to let me leave without paying. I appreciated that. But when I reminded him that I had specifically asked about the onions, I was told it was the kitchen's fault. I understand mistakes happen, but I ordered based on the information I was given. Maybe I caught them on a bad day, and obviously everyone has different tastes, but after hearing so many people recommend this place, I honestly don't understand the hype. And as someone who absolutely loved Pearl East, I'm sorry but this was light years away from Pearl East for me. I wanted that old Pearl East flavor and unfortunately I just didn't find it here

Stepping in, my boyfriend & I were greeted with a smile from the employees. They were kind, welcoming, & joyful. We ordered the beef pad see ewe & green curry with chicken.

It was creamy, delightful, & perfect with the side of rice. The veggies along with the chicken were straight yummy. 100% recommend Bee House to anyone & everyone looking for authentic, delicious food.

Food: AMAZING Service: GREAT…read moreAmbiance: COMFORTABLE, SMALLish but cozy. I had the Pad Thai, and my wife had the Pad Basil with chicken. Both were fantastic. Service is great and this place is immaculate. Not a spec of dirt or grime anywhere, not even on the windowsills or bathroom. There is countertop, sushi style spectator seating right near the kitchen, about 6 to 8 seats, or you can catch a high top or regular table nearby. Looks like there's about eight tables total. Medium spicy here on my Pad Thai is probably leaning more towards very spicy. I would opt for mild and then use the hot condiments they provide at the table. Tons of jumbo sized perfectly cooked shrimp and fresh vegetables. I asked for extra sauce because some places go light and it makes it dry. Noodles were cooked to perfection. My wife's chicken was perfectly seasoned, very savory with a nice basil flavor. Sauce was delicious and the vegetables were cooked perfect. This place was so great we are going to plan a trip back to the area as we were traveling from out of state on a whim getaway, and we will definitely be returning to try something else on the menu. Do not miss this place if you're nearby.

We were promptly greeted upon entering and directed to our requested booth. We chose their buffet which, at around 12 noon on a Wednesday, is $16.45 per person. There is no senior discount (at least not posted). Buffet is a nice size with a variety of common dishes like orange chicken, kung pao chicken, chow menu, sweet and sour pork, pot stickers, egg rolls, and mushroom chicken. My favorites were the tangerine beef and, orange chicken, and green beans. There was also a dessert section with soft serve and assorted cookies, cakes, and fruit. Staff was welcoming and friendly and bussed our table often. Ambiance is simple and fine. Their buffet is a great value and I'll definitely be back when I have a craving for Chinese food especially if ,I'm really hungry like this time.
