Meat Lover BBQ and fried chicken kitchen (Greedy Cat 馋猫烤鱼) — Restaurant in Riverside

This place is absolutely delicious. The $40 seafood monstrosity you get served is all made fresh and will feed your entire family. The sauce/broth is pure goodness and varies in spiciness depending on how much you can handle. Being a sissy myself, we ordered the crab and shrimp platter with moderate sauce. You have a choice of additions including glass noodles, rice cakes (highly recommend), or other veggies. I was lucky enough to venture here with my Mandarin speaking bestie, but both the server and owner are fluent in English and were the absolute sweetest. Water cup was never ever empty and the sweet woman noticed how much I scarfed down the rice cakes and brought over some more free of charge. The restaurant is close to UCR and I would highly recommend bringing some extra friends to help you eat the enormous portions. Really fun plaza with hookah lounge, dessert, and college hangout favorites! If you're craving fresh seafood...come try...

I ordered barbecue do you were's and they were almost out of all their meat so I ordered two lamb and one chicken and when I got to my car I had two pieces of chicken left the rest were pieces of griddle left from the chicken bones and no lamb and then when I went in to get my order that they forgot they had to have another customer translate and they told me that they would throw into extra lamb for free and I only ended up getting one because they said that they thought it was only going to be too they forgot they had forgotten my order and they kept going back-and-forth so i said fine whatever I'll just take two and then I left and when I got to the car I realize they didn't messed up again by giving me one !! so I'll never go to this place again even though their lamb is really good but...

For the most part very friendly service though when they're super busy they have a tendency to forget your order. Large menu and lots of drink options from the fridge if you want more mainland Chinese beverages that are harder to find in a local 99 ranch or so. Also the portions are huge for how much food you get especially in this economy and especially considering it's Riverside (I've found riverside to be more expensive for lower quality food compared to being in West LA, some parts of the bay, lots of places). The skewers with chicken heart don't knock it til you try it it's super flavorful. They also have a big beef hotpot kind of dish which could probably feed two very hungry big guys or the large for only $5 or so can feed probably 4-5...
