Read moreGreat for a family dining experience of 8 adults and 2 children. If you come here with a large group make a reservation. We normally make a reservation but forgot this time and tried to just wait it out. The parking lot was packed for a Friday night @ 6:30pm. We gave up trying to circle the lot as a bunch of people were stopped and not moving so that started getting some folks frustrated. We parked on the street and walked in to avoid the hassle. The wait was close to minutes and was a little tough for the impatient elders and toddlers. Once you get seated and order you will notice it’s a really big restaurant. They can seat a lot of people and large parties with no issues. There is tons of staff and once ordered, the food comes quick. I believe this was the $388 set meal with additions. We added garlic noodles under the lobster and swapped out the sea cucumbers for fried calamari and also added a fried tofu plate. The bill ended up being over $500 when we were done. Even though it looks like a lot of food there wasn’t a lot left over. The starter soup is thick and cornstarch-y and after adding pepper it was decent. The food is ok more like 3.5 stars on food instead of the 3 I gave. Skip putting the garlic noodles under the lobster as it comes out very oily on the bottom.

Our crab needed to be meatier since being dried fries made the meat shrivel inside the shells and seemed...

Executive chef from Newport Seafood is the star man who started Boston lobster. Looks like he didn't want to extend his stay at Newport so he took some of the working staff and took off. Lucky for me, my main waiter came along too who speaks Vietnamese and now there's a shorter wait for the same exact menu as Newport!
Here's an all-star cast if it's your first time house slecial lobster basil clams bo luc lac kung pao chicken (really though, it's no Panda Express) salty pork chop walnut shrimp salt and pepper crab pea sprouts steamed fish
Try to avoid: Canh chua (if your vietnamese you'll be disappoint that it's not the right flavor) anything with sweet and sour sauce seafood sizzling plates (lacks flavor)
Why not 5 stars?
If you have been to Newport, you'd know that the restaurant is done very well with well designed layout and decorations, side rooms for private families, big beautiful display tanks to showcase the massive crabs and lobsters. This place lacks all of that. It is a congested restaurant with nothing on the walls. The layout feels really tight because it's a lot smaller space. It just doesn't feel as clean.
Parking lot wars
There hasn't been a time when I've came into this lot without witnessing someone do something extremely stupid. A fairy must have sprinkled dumb dust all over this lot. Do youself a favor and street park it or park in...
