As a Vietnamese guest, I was genuinely impressed by this restaurant’s ability to elevate our traditional street food into a refined, fine dining experience. Each dish was thoughtfully reimagined without losing the bold, authentic flavors I grew up with, especially the spring rolls, which were fresh, flavorful, and artfully presented.
The ambiance was just as memorable, elegant and serene, with koi fish swimming beneath the glass floor under the tables, adding a unique touch. The special cocktail our waiter recommended was also outstanding — beautifully balanced and a perfect complement to the meal.
💯 masterpiece, ty Chef

I am not happy with Crustaceans any longer. I dont know what happened but it is not the high-end restaurant it use to be. Me and my family went here for our anniversary and the service was mediocre, you are constantly bating flies over your food and the flies in the hall and in the bathroom is ridiculous! I know they are in the kitchen. They blamed it on being a simi-outdoor restaurant but Ive been to many outdoor restaurants and they did not have a gnat/fly infestation all over the restaurant! They give you a fan for your table but that don't stop the gnats! The food was dry and clearly not made fresh. Because a lot of the items are popular it seems they make a bunch and let it sit. The food is very high and they give you very little. I cant believe we paid almost 300 dollars for this. They gave us some Jasmine sorbet and it tasted like cough medicine. It was so disgusting. I wont be returning here again

Crustacean Restaurant is delicious with excellent dim sum and shareable plates. The service is warm and attentive, making it a perfect mix of casual and elegant dining.

Checked out Crustacean for the first time specifically for Little C Pop-Up by Chef John.
Chef John’s thoughtful creativity; use of fresh ingredients; and exquisite plating were on point. Our only minor complaint was the oiliness of Banh Xeo, which Chef John immediately addressed and even offered to remake them for us.
My husband & I had a lovely chat with Chef John and we were thoroughly impressed by him. Looking fwd to stalking his culinary career and what he gets up to next.
Unfortunately, our lunch dining experience and interactions with Crustacean staff, including Chef Helene An, were subpar.
2 different servers asked what we thought but were taken aback by our less-than-glowing response. When I mentioned that the dipping sauce for DIY Goi Cuon was too oily for our liking, he said “that’s the first time we’ve heard that feedback”.
Chef Helene An approached our table but immediately talked over me saying “thank you for visiting our restaurant”, while bowing slightly and walking backwards away from our table.
My husband & I were left feeling confused by the dichotomy: asking us for our dining experience versus not being open to hearing our honest feedback.
Having lived in LA for over 2 decades and knowing how lucky Angelenos are with this City’s diverse cuisine options, I don’t feel the need to spend our money here at Crustacean.
My husband & I are in agreement. We will wait for Chef John’s restaurant and enjoy his delicious creations then.

I came here for the first time with my mother, and we had the best time ever. She was in town visiting for Mother’s Day, and I took her to Mother’s Day brunch here. Everything from the decor to the service to the food presentation and the taste was amazing. Even the bathrooms were awesome and super pretty. I couldn’t stop taking pictures with the full body mirror.
Everything we tasted it was delicious. some things we ordered were very simple, but it packed a punch and it was well worth the money. my new favorite cocktail is a lychee martini because of them.
And the DJ and the music was perfect for the day. We saw a few celebrities and the rest of the clientele were very nice and sweet. It was an overall wonderful experience and I look forward to coming back more often for brunch. we took a lot of photos and will cherish that day forever. My mother truly felt special and I’ve never seen that look on her face before until I took her there. thank you for that memory.
As a girly girl, I loved coming to this pretty woman-owned place where they pay attention to detail like me :) there were even fish swimming in the floor, which was a wonderful touch!

Little C at Crustacean is a fantastic pop-up specializing in Vietnamese street food. The food was incredibly fresh and flavorful.
We were a party of 3, and all raved about our dishes. Together, we ordered the “Banh Hoi” Tiger Prawns, Chicken “Cha Gio” and Pho. I had the Chicken Pho while my dining partners had the Filet Mignon “Pho Xao Lan.” All agreed it was among the best pho we’ve had.
The service was great, and the atmosphere for Little C was fun. I will absolutely be back to try Crustacean. I hope they bring back Little C more often.

From the moment you walk in, you feel it. The ambiance is calm, clean, modern, and yet inviting — there's a subtle elegance in the way they've designed the space. It's a perfect blend of minimalism and warmth, making it equally ideal for a solo visit, a relaxed meeting, or a quiet afternoon with friends.

Honestly I'm very surprised this gimmicky restaurant is able to stay open, I can't imagine anyone going back or recommending others try it out. The atmosphere was neat and the service was fine, but the food was quite terrible, maybe a few items were mediocre at best. Overall everything was heavy
and greasy and absurdly over priced. Ofcourse small, expensive portions are to be expected at a fine dining restaurant, but usually the food is so delicious it feels worth the price. Not here, you'll get FAR better food at any hole in the wall vietnamese establishment. We had three people and we paid over $450. Literally one of the worst and most expensive restaurant experiences I've ever had which is why I'm leaving this review. If this restaurant was good in the past, it's days in the sun have unfortunately sunset.
