I always like this place. Their portions are good and the food comes out pretty fast. It was a bit crowded today, but we got in without reservations. If possible try not to sit by the restrooms. The smell isn't helpful to enjoying a meal.

I've passed this place many times and ate here a couple times in the past. I always thought the place was pretty good, especially their seafood items. They have a parking lot in the back and a huge menu of items to choose from. They have lunch specials and even lobster specials when you purchase an entree. I recently had a jajangmyeon craving, so we came for lunch recently and luckily it was pretty empty. We ordered from the lunch specials and of course we had to get a lobster. Salt and pepper is my favorite preparation for the lobster. They cut the lobster up really well so you don't need any utensils to get to the meat. The food was pretty good and came out pretty quick. ******** Oh hi Lobster King Chinese food and fresh seafood Have to lunch specials

The food was ok but the service was the worse, we felt so discriminated. After they sat us down we were ignored until i got up to ask for help. We would have left but we were very hungry and wanted to give a chance to correct the mistake. After our order was taken they kept ignoring us, i had to get up and ask someone for the food we still needed and even then they took a very long time to come back, they werent even busy. Horrible horrible service

The Chinese young man's way of serving dishes was very bad. When I took a new plate from the next table instead of bringing a new plate to put in the empty space, this man loudly said that he would not let me take that plate. My whole family and I were very disappointed with the very bad service at this restaurant and will never come back.?

Don't make my same mistake.Drove past this place for years.It's not that "Elite". It's reasonable.It's just a huge Chinese Restaurant with a BIG NAME. ??We had a big family party. OG staff will take care of you. Wheelchair accessibility: ??

We enjoyed the foods: mushu pork, they actually rolled them for you already. String bean was a little plain but acceptable. Lobster for $24.95 green onion and ginger sauce - delicious. Ample parking out front. Although when we went it was packed. The hot and sour soup is extremely intimidating. They say it Korean level spicy so if you cannot eat spicy food like me then ask for the mild version.

The food was good. The service was good. Its a big noisy restaurant. What more do you need to know? The menu was huge but we finally decided on our choices. A 5 lb lobster steamed. Was a little over cooked but the butter helped with that. Duck bao. Winner!! Oxtail in wine sauce. Winner. Green beans with garlic. Ono! And beers. Always good.

We went on a Saturday night with no reservations. It was very crowded. Wait was about 20 minutes for a table. It took another 15 minutes for our orders to be taken. Menu was extensive. Definitely worth studying the menu before you go. Mix of Chinese and Korean blended foods. Oysters albeit small was fresh, lobster noodles was a little salty, and Peking duck was on point. Portions were relatively large definitely made for family style sharing. Lobster King was definitely vibing, good for groups, and very loud. Restaurant staff were a mix of hurried, abrupt, and some did not speak English making communication somewhat difficult. It was clear if you spoke Korean or Chinese your table was serviced quickly. Towards the middle of our meal we came across a couple of very helpful and nice staffers. Overall, food was palatable, atmosphere was upbeat and experience was interesting to say the least. Parking is a bit tight. Definitely make reservations before you go.

Lobster King in Hawaii's was close to Ala Moana Mall. It was a plus to be seated even though not everyone in my party had arrived yet. I opted for the pre-set meal for 10 as it was an easier option for a large party. With 7 adults and several kids in my group, there were plenty of leftovers. The food met my expectations in both appearance and taste, and I especially enjoyed the pleasantly mild almond jelly dessert and soup. It's evidently a favorite among locals, given its popularity. Despite the restaurant being a busy night, the service was still good. The noise level remained manageable. Overall, I had a good experience and I would recommend here for a large party.

It is a bright and spacious hall rather than the heavy atmosphere of a Western restaurant, and the amount of food is quite large, so it is advisable to share the food by type rather than ordering according to the number of people. Even though the taste of the food is not comparable to that of domestic broth, local Koreans also say that the abundance of ingredients and generous hospitality are good.

worstI wonder if Jjamppong was boiled with a red pepper paste base.Not a tasteSweet and sour pork tastes averageStir-fried beef tastes like pepperLemon blah blah blah, I can't eat fried food.Crab soup contains fish intestines.Garlic fried rice is very edible.Except for the fact that they have a Korean menu available in Korean, it's garbage.
