I think I found my favorite Asian seafood spot in the area. I am absolutely in love with their crab roe specialty ! You have the choice of with white rice or noodles. I chose rice with the crab roe and later one decided to get an order to go with the noodles. The crab roe is to die for ! So much flavorful and deliciousness. Another order is the steamed Halibut which was also wonderful to the taste buds. The service from the kind lady was wonderful and fast paced. We didn’t have to wait long for the orders to come. The restaurant is located on the second floor of the plaza and the first door. The parking is hard around that area but I went on thanksgiving day so it wasn’t so busy. My favorite part is the restaurant is dog friendly !!!! I cannot wait to try other items on the menu and bring my pup. This place is a must try with so much variety off their menu.

First time here, the crab and shrimp boil was so fresh. Also the traditional Chinese dishes were excellent. I loved the crab roe with bok choy

Came here to try out their signature dish (crabmeat over rice) and wasn’t disappointed. My daughter also likes their fish noodle soups. The atmosphere is also pleasant as well.

8lbs of seafood for $78, best bang for your buck. Would definitely recommend for a large party looking for a good seafood spot.

Extensive menu, good for sharing. The fried shrimp were some of the best I’ve tasted. Loved the crab casserole. The noodles and mushrooms were great. Crab was a bit difficult to pick apart but the presentation of it was very nice.

I give it a five star because of the excellent service, cleanliness and price. It’s airy and quite open. The order came quickly and portions are reasonably large. II would come back to try other wonderful dishes such as the Crab vermicelli casserole. I’m sure it’s just as delicious.

This restaurant is a new addition to the plaza, and we were curious to try it out. The owners also run Wu’s Fish House next door, and they share the same kitchen. We ordered crab roe soup dumpling buns and crab roe tofu over rice. While waiting, we were given appetizers: peanuts, pickled radishes, and marinated cloud ears, with the latter standing out the most.
After a lengthy wait, I asked about our order, and the waitress apologized, explaining they had limited cooks. We finally received the crab roe tofu over rice, which my husband and I shared. The flavor was delicious, but the mushy rice was disappointing. It was also puzzling that our appetizers were served after our main entree.
We waited a while, sipping on $3 tea, before the waitress brought out the soup dumplings. The dumplings were very good, with on-point flavor. I recommend not using the fish sauce, as it disrupts the delicate taste. The skin was thicker than expected, but the dumplings were still sublime.
Although the restaurant offers more than just crab roe dishes, we focused on these for our first visit. We were quite happy with our selections. Here are our ratings:
– Crab roe soup buns: 4/5 stars
– Crab roe tofu over rice: 4/5 stars
– Service: 3.5/5 stars
– Atmosphere: 3.5/5 stars
Overall, we give this place 4/5 stars and plan to revisit to try other dishes.

The crab roes over rice or noodles were great. The pan fried crab roe buns were another Shanghai signature, perfectly done. We also liked their red bean paste moon cakes and zong zi for desserts. We liked them so much that we always ordered two more portions to go so we can enjoy them at home for snacks!
