I came here last night and was oddly surprised as I have done two types of 'seafood boil's' in a close enough time span that I was not wanting seafood. I have seen many pictures of this place and was going in with no expectations. As you all know this is a hands on affair, which means prepare to get messy.... depending on your eating habits, real messy! If you do not know... this place serves seafood, that is a given, yet they do it in a Chinese manor... in the flavor. You can go plain if you are not adventurous, but if you want to change this you can go 'Ma La' chili crazy hot, deep fried salty pepper style, to even a curry style, and that is just to name a few. Don't worry about the mess, they give you a bib and some gloves, and they will give you more gloves as the flavors seem to have broken right through to my fingers on this occasion. If you are wanting more of the non-seafood variety, you can have this.. as they have meat skewers, chicken wings, and even Chinese style hamburgers with pulled pork. The background music is a twist on the new Chinese classical music, the decor is actually very pretty for a style of cuisine that does not need it, think of this as a classy way to have seafood boil with your hands, nut-crakers, and mallets!

Barely OK food, but absolutely atrocious service. Incredibly slow, untrained staff who don't know what's on the menu or what dishes look like, appetizers arriving long after the main dish, some dishes never arriving, at there arriving although not ordered and appearing on the bill, annoying owner insisting on getting everyone (crappy) beer of his own choice, even when we told him that we are not drinking, charging us for wrong dishes, charging for alcoholic cocktails when we ordered virgin. Also, most of the mussel and all of the scallop shells were empty, and what was in the dish did not seem to match in size to the shells. Looks like they used a cheap seafood mix and threw in some empty shells to hide this. Decor is nice though.
Food is mediocre, but prices are exorbitant and off the charts. Furthermore, the restaurant tries to take advantage of you in every way possible: drinks are 60% ice, the shrimps are dead shrimps and the "soup" has no actual food inside. Waiter was rather pretentious.
