This is one of the best restaurants I’ve ever tried in the states.

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.

Great authentic food. Just need to ask if they have fresh fish before ordering any fish dish. Otherwise, everything is great.

It tastes pretty good. The portion is a bit small, eight points for vegetables and two points for seafood. 100 dollars for two people without packing.

I wouldn't say this is a good restaurant to go for Qingdao Shandong style seafood. The steamed bao is mediocre. The menus are quite confusing with different prices for same dishes.

Some food was just taste-less, and some was not bad. We ordered the Fried Fish with sweet & sour sauce. It was bad. Somehow, it had a bitter taste and kinda fishie [we're not gonna order this again] Sea Cucumber Fish Maw Soup was no taste at all,
