The owners are from Rowland Heights, and have opened up places there and at Artesia. I was there for dinner. Got the lobster 4 lbs, at their special price of $10/lb - 10/10 It was fresh, and amazingly flavorful - the manager got us a pregnant female lobster so that he could season and cook the roe. The Fish 2 flavor - 6/10 They take the fish and make soup out of parts of it, and then filet the rest with a flavorful sauce with tofu. I only wish the fish was a little fresher, but the soup had a very good traditional chinese taste. Diced French Beef steak - 8/10 Very flavorful,and peppery. BBQ Pork Chow Mien HK style - 5/10 I don't know why I always order this at every restaurant. It was a little to mushy - and not crispy enough for my kids. I am just glad that there is a real Rowland Heights/Irvine level chinese restaurant near me. I also read that they have dim sum on carts at lunch from yelpers.

Thu May 29 16:25:16 -0700 2008 3729496 58406 Zadok 3 3732401 Sounds like Great Sea Food House on Pioneer and 183rd. Thu May 29 16:40:19 -0700 2008 3732358 10131 Chandavkl 3 3732451 Wondering if it is the place next to Kim Tar? Hmmm...will have to find out now. Thu May 29 16:56:43 -0700 2008 3732358 77080 justagthing 4 3732454 Not next to Kim Tar, but on the other side of the building (you can't see 183rd St. from the front of Great Sea Food House). Thu May 29 16:58:11 -0700 2008 3732451 10131 Chandavkl 1 3732942 We went last week too. Shark Fin Soup - $50 for a bowl for 4-5 - 7/10 It was pretty good, but I feel like it just lacked something. It was a bit bland. Lobster - 8/10 Pretty good, the roe was a little over cooked. They sprinkle dried pork rousong on it, which made for an interesting twist. Newport Seafood is hands down the best in this department. French Beef Luc Lac - 7/10 Also pretty good. Newport Seafood has the best beef luc lac as well. Steamed Fish - 6/10 Our fish apparently wasn't very fresh. The sauce was also not flavorful enough. Vegetable - Big Pea Sprout - 8/10 Fresh big pea sprouts were pretty good. It's a good option for Orange, but if you drove a little further to Santa Ana, you could have Newport Seafood.
