Crawfish & Hotpot

My hubby and I came in for a late lunch and our first visit here. I had the sandwich with pork, and it was wonderful. My hubby had the dish with noodle and greens with pork and shrimp and a egg roll( i can't remember the name) but he thought it was the best he has ever had. And he's he'd it in meny places, even in las vegas.. The service was top notch, very friendly and helpfull... We even came back on Wednesday ( but they were closed)... But we will be back... Thank you so much for being a resturant that cares.....

Lots of amazing food options here! Got the seafood boil with their house special and the sauce was a bit too sweet and not spicy enough but overall the seafood was amazing in it. Biggest crawfish I’ve had, good amount of crab in the combo, and shrimp was all so big and juicy! $80 for their seafood combo that fed two of us plus some leftover

I was really excited reading the menu, especially for the Vietnamese dishes, although not as much for the seafood boil.

My family ordered a beef broth hot pot, crab fried rice, snails in salted duck egg yolk, lotus root salad, and my husband had a vermicelli bowl.

The snails were expensive but sadly lacked flavor. I tried the salted egg yolk sauce on its own, and it was surprisingly bland, which was disappointing. Unfortunately, this trend continued with most of the dishes, as the fried rice and salad were both on the bland side as well.

The beef broth hot pot was the standout of the meal in terms of flavor.

While the broth itself was rich and flavorful, the accompanying ingredients were underwhelming. It included some beef, tongue, taro chunks, tendons, egg noodles, and chrysanthemum greens. The dipping sauce was a creamy fermented tofu sauce, which was delicious on its own but didn't complement the hot pot at all. Each component was fine on its own, but together, they didn't come together as I'd hoped.

I absolutely love hot pot, but this version just wasn't to my taste, and I didn't enjoy it as much as I thought I would.

Unfortunately, the overall experience didn't live up to my expectations, and it's not a place I'd be eager to return to.

I eaten at every reputable vietnamese restaurant in Seattle, good number in OC and San Jose, and been to Vietnam several times, but this is the best Pho ever! They also have great hot pot and other vietnamese dishes. Highly recommend!

Surreal dinner experience— in a bad way. A napkin caught fire, my partner burned his elbow, and I ate a mouthful of raw meat.

The “hot pot” is a monumental safety hazard. The broth is served in a TJ Max decorative bowl that is NOT insulated at all, so every part of it is hot to the touch, even the lid. This would be fine if they gave you a cloth or a mitt but instead, the staff themselves had to force the lid open with rolled up napkins and a knife because the lid was dented into the pot and wouldn’t open. It was also boiling on a rickety burner, and the propane was VERY pungent and enveloping the table.

As a table, we ordered a combo of crawfish boil, seafood hot pot, beef fried rice, and a beef bahn mi.

The fried rice was dull and flavorless. The beef was old and tasted almost sour when it didn’t taste bland.
My bahn mi was full of gray and RAW meat. Our server was so kind and quickly put in a new order and the second bahn mi STILL had raw pieces.
All the seafood we had was frozen at some point.

However, the folks at the table loved the grilled oysters. They were out of raw oysters for the day.

All in all, this place was not tasty. The tables were sticky. And we, unfortunately, will not be returning.

We ordered the small beef hotpot and beef short ribs with rice. Both dishes were very satisfying and matched my taste. The restaurant is nicely decorated, and the staff were friendly and helpful. I visited during non-busy hours, so I can’t say much about the atmosphere at peak time. I didn’t check the restroom, so no comments there. Overall, a pleasant experience and worth trying!

We ordered a seafood boil of crawfish and lobster tails with the house special sauce on the crawfish and the salted egg cream sauce on the lobster tails and they were so good! The lady helping us out was also super nice and very welcoming!

Really awesome Vietnamese restaurant in south Seattle that my friend and I popped into! The waitress and all the staff were super kind and even provided us with free fries for a longer-than-expected wait.

I had the wonton egg noodle soup and it was delicious with so much flavor. The meat was super tender and went well with the broth and some chili oil/sriracha.

Will definitely stop by soon to try their seafood boil!

We went during brunch on a holiday and it was busy, but there was plenty of parking. The food was decent with large portions, and there’s a big menu with lots I still want to try. Service could be better, we didn’t get enough spoons and staff weren’t very accommodating. They also host birthday parties. I’d come back to try more dishes!
