First time picking up food from this place. Order on the phone for the a pick up. Bill came to over $70. I order 2 won tong soups ,sesame chicken scallion pancakes and lamb ribs since they don't do spare ribs. I asked to see the bill and learned that they gave me $20 worth of soup. The ribs were $30. I asked for extra mustard ,they said they don't have it . I asked if they packed souse for the pancakes they did't have it. The gave me some vinegar in a little jar that was uneatable. The sesame chicken was smothered with souse and no sesame seeds and overcooked .The $30 were covered completely with dry rub and huge amount of red paper.I couldn't have second bite because it was so spicy. Threw away everything in the garbage. The soup was good but enough for a week. I did't want that much of it. Would not recommend this place

I've been this restaurant several times. My family and I really liked the seafood there. The fried shrimp is my nephew's favorite. The fish ball soup is my favorite. My sister likes the jellyfish. We have tried quite a lot of dishes there. My suggestion is to stick to the seafood. I'm not saying other dishes are not good. Just not as good as their seafood dishes.

Blown away!! Heard about this place from a friend who always knows the best and most authentic restaurants. This one is from Shandong which is known for their seafood amongst other things. Everything was perfectly balanced. We got razor clams, fish dumplings, tofu, pig trotters, pumpkin, and more. Also price was very reasonable. Can’t wait to go back!

It seems like this place has changed chefs, because the food quality has gone way down.
The ingredients aren’t fresh, and the seafood has a noticeable foul smell.
Also, be careful with the bill—they seem to tamper with it, as the prices don’t match the menu.

The food is not tasty and they have two different menus with different prices — very confusing.

My favorite Chinese seafood restaurant in NJ! Fresh and not too salty. Usually not too busy
The food here was incredibly flavorful and prepared very quickly – we were the only four guests around 3 PM. We truly enjoyed the taste and speed of service.
However, I was displeased to see that we were charged for six portions of rice when we ordered four dishes totaling $90. I believe that one rice portion should have been included per dish, making a charge for two extra portions fair. Given that our four dishes combined for $90, it felt a bit like a hidden $1.50 per dish to pay for rice that really should have been complementary.
While the food itself was excellent, the unexpected rice charges definitely impacted my overall impression.

The prices on the bill were higher than what was shown on the menu.The main menu and the simplified menu were already different, and neither of them matched the final price I was charged. When I pointed it out, the owner admitted the prices hadn’t been updated — and even acknowledged that I wasn’t the first customer to bring this up. It's unclear why they still haven’t corrected it. It almost feels like they’re intentionally using the lower menu prices to attract orders, then charging more at checkout.
This lack of transparency feels dishonest and sneaky. I don’t feel comfortable eating food made by a business that operates this way, and I would not recommend this place. The owner offered to refund the difference via Zelle, but actually they never followed up. I chose not to chase them for it, since the money itself wasn’t the issue, but the way they handled it was disappointing.

Enjoyed our meal. The restaurant was full and we were the only non-Asians eating there which tells me that the food must be consistently good.

Food was amazing but the waitress had a really bad memory and kept forgetting our order request
