Chinn’s Seafood could use some heavy improvement. Entering in, you can tell it’s a hole in the wall. There’s seating but it’s only if you’re waiting for the meal. I had the 1lb seafood order of flounder and mussels, each with a different sauce. They both came with maybe one quartered potato and two quarters of corn – there’s a heavy portion of seafood which is always exciting to see, but it’s quite unfortunate when the food falls short from a lack of seasoning in the food itself rather than its sauce.
I wish the mussels were cooked a little longer. That would have helped pull that extra mound of meat off easier. The sauces themselves were not finger licking good either. The garlic butter sauce was weaker than Papa John’s included butter sauce, if that shows anything. Some parts of the dishes were seasoned well, others not as much. For today’s spice level, I had mild and medium, both of which felt the same. I guess I’ll try spicy next time.
Like the mussels, the flounder was about what you can expect. It felt like the fish wasn’t seasoned before breading, and the expectation is that you dip the fish into the seasoned sauce to enjoy. It was strange to not see the flounder in other parts of the Chinese entrees in there as well.
The broccoli was a nice touch, but it all comes down to cutting the quality of the dish by prioritizing speed. Upsetting.
Edit: Also, don’t bother getting their coupon from the website. You can guarantee yourself a stale set of dry, sketchy technically edible wings that were pulled out of the fridge and reheated for service like I did.
I ordered the Curry chicken. He asked large or small, I choose large.
He said 10 min, I didn’t time him, (You order Chinese you expect prep time!) the food came in what seemed a short time.
Very glad I found this gem. The food was delicious. I will have at least one more meal out of this order.
I will have to go back and try the cajin dishes. Not very familiar with cajin, but if their cajin is as good as their Chinese, it will be a great adventure.
The combination fried rice is delicious.
