“Don’t judge this place by the storefront. It looks like a typical Chinese restaurant from the outside, but they also serve Cajun seafood boils.

We went for lunch and ordered a combo with 1 lb shrimp, 1.5 lb clams, and 2 lobster tails with the “mix them all” sauce. The portion was generous. Since it was just the two of us, we couldn’t finish everything and had to pack the leftovers.

The seafood tasted fresh and well cooked. The shrimp and lobster weren’t mushy, and the clams were good and fresh. The sauce was garlicky and flavorful and coated everything nicely.

Overall it was a pleasant surprise. It’s a simple, casual spot but a good option if you’re in the mood for a Cajun-style seafood boil without the usual long wait or high price.“

I would definitely go here again, I had the ceviche it was superior. I also had a mango drink which was delicious.

“Kevin's Noodle House is the proverbial new kid on the block on Grand Avenue, and it has stepped right into direct competition with Ben Tre. It honestly feels like two local titans going head to head for neighborhood pho supremacy.

That said, I personally prefer Kevin's. I definitely have a soft spot for it since I grew up going to their other locations, and this one delivers that same familiar comfort. The food hits the spot, the flavors are consistent, and it feels dependable in the way a good noodle house should.

The space is clean and modern, and service has been friendly and efficient every time I have been. They renovated this building quite well. Ben Tre is still a strong option and longtime favorite for many, but Kevin's feels a little more my speed. One little quirk I noticed about the waiters - none of them write down orders. They are very good and always get it right. I am glad they opened here, and I will keep coming back.“
