I think I found my favorite Asian seafood spot in the area. I am absolutely in love with their crab roe specialty ! You have the choice of with white rice or noodles. I chose rice with the crab roe and later one decided to get an order to go with the noodles. The crab roe is to die for ! So much flavorful and deliciousness. Another order is the steamed Halibut which was also wonderful to the taste buds. The service from the kind lady was wonderful and fast paced. We didn’t have to wait long for the orders to come. The restaurant is located on the second floor of the plaza and the first door. The parking is hard around that area but I went on thanksgiving day so it wasn’t so busy. My favorite part is the restaurant is dog friendly !!!! I cannot wait to try other items on the menu and bring my pup. This place is a must try with so much variety off their menu.

The king crab was really bad :(. We were really looking forward to ordering the king crab combo, but were SO disappointed. It was very dry and old. Because I came with my Asian parents, we forced ourselves to finish it, but we finally opened the last one and saw that there was terrible freezer burn (see pic), indicating how old it is. We tried communicating to the staff/manager but they still made us pay for this meal. Maybe try the other seafood boil in this shopping center if you’re looking for seafood.

Maybe the worst seafood restaurant I have ever visited. food quality is terrible, fish and crab are smelly. A crab pot of 38 bucks only contains two small crabs that probably died few days ago, and the rest are all rice noodles. Zero service provided except for taking orders and checks. Stay away from this restaurant! It's nothing but pricy.

Food is authentic. Service is friendly and easy. Front desk area could be improved and landlord should do a better job for the corridors and stairway. Overall, really delicious food, not crowded.

Crab House (connected to Fish House) is one of those spots getting a lot of buzz online, especially for their crab roe over rice and noodles—and yes, the hype is real. We got both versions, and they absolutely delivered. The roe sauce is rich, briny, and deeply savory, coating every bite of rice and noodles with a luxurious, ocean-y umami. It’s bold but well-balanced—definitely a standout.

We also ordered the acorn squirrel fish, which reminded us of a sweet-and-sour whole fish. Super crispy on the outside, tender on the inside, and served with a bright, tart sauce that had just the right kick. Really flavorful and satisfying.

They do offer a seafood boil here, which we didn’t get this time, but it looked and smelled amazing at nearby tables—something we’d come back for.

The glass noodles with crab, however, didn’t quite match the rest. The noodles were soft and infused with mushroom flavor, which was a bit overpowering, and the crab itself didn’t add much—barely any meat and not a ton of impact. Just OK.

Ambience is minimal but clean. Not a lot of frills, but it works. Service was alright—not rude, but a bit inattentive. We had to follow up on rice we ordered with the fish, which took a while to arrive.

All in all, a strong 4 stars. A few misses, but the crab roe dishes and that sweet & sour-style fish are worth coming for. We’ll be back.

The food has a rather exquisite taste. It is unique to their own. My family and I wandered upon this place and are glad to have tried it! The atmosphere is very comforting and the service is swift, efficient, and welcoming. The crab stuffed buns were a personal favorite. Overall, a very nice place that I would highly recommend.
