16 Best Seafood Restaurants in San Gabriel

“The best Vietnamese Style Lobster and seafood! Always a long queue to be seated. Get here early for best parking and best seating.“

“I’ve been coming to sushi rolland for a while now, and I’d say, I’m pretty satisfied! I’ve been impressed by the freshness of the their fish, especially their salmon. I LOVE salmon, and their salmon is buttery and very good quality. For their price and quality, I’d say it’s definitely worth it. I’ve tried their salmon delight, crunch roll, dragon roll, blossom roll, salmon avocado combo, combo an and combo c. I tried out their new menu today, the salmon crunch, and I really liked it (apologies for the half eaten picture). Might be my new go to menu item. I really the fried onions on there. I always like getting their miso soup, such a good combination with the sushi. Highly recommend their combo plate, especially combo A!“

“I miss their old location with its great views of the San Gabriel Mtns...this new location on the first floor of the Hilton....kinda looks like a pop-up, temporary squat but it's not. So no view no ambiance (not elegant no Asian decor or any decor for that matter definitely no frills...just two huge TV screens, great for watching sports....in a huge ballroom. But...forget the non ambiance, the food is still bomb diggity.....and the reason for the happy diners...one of the best prices in SGV. It's cheap ya'll. Good cheap dimsum, Monday thru Friday.@ 3.99 prr dish. Its 4.99 on weekends. This explains the crowds on a Thursday afternoon...young people know this place....our venerated elders know this place...balancing prices, volume without sacrificing quality. Just don't look too closely at the stained chairs...or the rolling carts....it's what's in the steamers that matters. Also don't expect happy servers, especially the men attendants...its all business with them, no time for friendly effort, no smiles....but there were some cart ladies who don't ignore you, and are friendly and helpful...slip them some cash so we teach the others that good service with a smile pays, but yo...friendliness is a bonus, not a necessity....especially at these prices. Go for the awesome dim sum and smile at the cost....and be sure to order the sesame balls...unbelievably hot crispy on the outside, gooey yummiest on the inside....best sesame seed balls around. 10/5 also excellent is the beef balls 5/5, the tripe 5/5, the savory pineapple bbq pork 5/5, the bbq pork pastry triangle 5/5....the Chinese tamale., also excellent 5/5. Basically, all the dim sum is 5/5.“

“Great service! Go Dodgers 🧢⚾️“

“Fish was fresh and flavors were great. Love that they separate the warm rice from the cold poke when you get it to go. The only thing I’d say is beware if you add cucumber: my poke container had a lot of liquid at the bottom from the cucumber salad, which created a bit of an unpleasant texture to the rest of the ingredients that were also at the bottom of the container. But overall, I really enjoyed it!“

“delicious authentic Chinese food 😋“

“I really enjoyed the BBQ meats at Auntie’s Kitchen in San Gabriel. The BBQ pork, roast pork, and roast duck were all delicious, and each one had its own standout flavor and texture.

The roast pork was especially good—the skin was really crispy and crunchy, while the meat inside stayed juicy and tender. The roast duck was also excellent, with a wonderful aroma and rich, savory flavor. The meat was juicy, tender, and very flavorful.

The restaurant itself is a bit small, but it feels cozy and comfortable. Overall, it’s a great spot if you’re craving flavorful Chinese BBQ meats. I’d definitely come back for the roast pork and roast duck!“

“This is a very small dim sum place, one two table for 4 person, and 2 tables for 2. So maximum only 12 people can dine it. However, the dim sum here is one of the best we have had. Siu mai was rich in flavor and meaty. Stick rice and cheong fun were both top notched. Xiao longbao was juicy too. Due to the small dining area, I imagined it will be difficult at peak hour. Or you just need to take out. But if you do take out, the dim sum may not taste as good. Dilemma. But we were very happy with the food and service.“

“A typical fancy omakase meal that I’m not sure if I would come back.

The menu only had 2 choices, wagyu or seafood set, $128 person. I enjoy most of the food, out of 11 courses, there 4 dishes with different type of steak, while the meat is good I think I expected more creativity?( Caz honestly I could probably do that at home myself with the quality of the meat).

I feel the restaurant lacks decoration compare to most fancy upscale restaurant, so without the atmosphere, the vibe, the setting. I think the experience would be for food for the most part … and I feel like they could make it more fancy if that make sense“

“Well let’s say I going to compare other tacos to this one . So far top of my list ! I will definitely recommend eating here and maybe when you do invite me !“

“Our family loves to eat Korean foods. This place is a good one because you have many choices to choose from. The portion is pretty big so you can share it. Good service, very clean and most of all the foods are delicious. I highly recommend it.“

“Today we had grilled fish at Liu Roast Fish (San Gabriel). The two of us ordered a mildly spicy black cod. The flavor was authentic, and the fish was very fresh. It had great color, aroma, and taste, really whetting the appetite. The staff were friendly, gave detailed explanations of the menu, and the environment was clean and comfortable. Whenever we come to Los Angeles, California, this is the restaurant we must visit to enjoy a feast.“

“Recently visited King’s Congee and was seriously impressed. The seafood congee was packed with fresh ingredients — lobster, crab, scallops, and shrimp all cooked perfectly. The broth was rich, flavorful, and had that slow-cooked taste you can only get from a kitchen that takes congee seriously.

We also tried the pigeon congee and the morel mushroom congee, both of which were excellent. Every bowl arrived piping hot and loaded with ingredients, not just rice and broth like many other places.

The side dishes were just as memorable. The braised pork feet were tender and full of flavor, the century egg tofu was refreshing, and the duck wings were perfectly seasoned.

What stood out most was the quality and freshness of the seafood. You can actually see the live seafood selection, which explains why everything tasted so fresh. Portions were generous, service was friendly, and the restaurant was clean and comfortable.

If you’re looking for authentic Cantonese-style congee with premium ingredients, this place is absolutely worth a visit. We’ll definitely be back to try more dishes.“

“Tried New Golden Soup for their $12 lunch entree deals (at the time of this review) on Mother's Day. All pictured but the scallop (fantastic flavor) were part of the deal. I thought, for the price and portion size (we had 4 people in our group), everything was solid and my fave dish was the salt and pepper shrimp which I typically have high standards for.

However, my family won't go back for the following: our chicken clay pot (I forgot to snag a photo) was undercooked. I'm sure the holiday rush was a factor. They reheated the food for us but that was a deal breaker for my family.

I went straight at opening (11 am) got a table and was served right away. I'm glad we did because the restaurant got swamped a half an hour later. Really hard to get any staffer's attention after that, which I get. Food was good, until the clay pot!“

“Came here with a group of five for dinner on a Saturday evening, and the timing worked out. There was no wait so we were able to settle in and enjoy a proper family-style feast pretty quick.

We ordered several of their popular dishes, including the lobster with noodles, basil clams, and plenty more. Everything was flavorful, satisfying, and made for a family style meal. The lobster and noodles were definitely worth getting a little shellfish over. Also, highly recommend the fermented greens. Simple, savory, and surprisingly addictive.

Great food, good portions, and an enjoyable dinner all around.“
