Customer Reviews
Reviewing it as a seafood place. Chinn's Seafood could use some heavy improvement. Entering in, you can tell it's a hole in the wall. There's seating but it's only if you're waiting for the meal. I had the 1lb seafood order of flounder and mussels, each with a different sauce. They both came with maybe one quartered potato and two quarters of corn - there's a heavy portion of seafood which is always exciting to see, but it's quite unfortunate when the food falls short from a lack of seasoning in the food itself rather than its sauce. I wish the mussels were cooked a little longer. That would have helped pull that extra mound of meat off easier. The sauces themselves were not finger licking good either. The garlic butter sauce was weaker than Papa John's included butter sauce, if that shows anything. Some parts of the dishes were seasoned well, others not as much. For today's spice level, I had mild and medium, both of which felt the same. I guess I'll try spicy next time. Like the mussels, the flounder was about what you can expect. It felt like the fish wasn't seasoned before breading, and the expectation is that you dip the fish into the seasoned sauce to enjoy. It was strange to not see the flounder in other parts of the Chinese entrees in there as well. The broccoli was a nice touch, but it all comes down to cutting the quality of the dish by prioritizing speed. Upsetting. Edit: Also, don't bother getting their coupon from the website. You can guarantee yourself a stale set of dry, sketchy technically edible wings that were pulled out of the fridge and reheated for service like I did.
This has become our “go to” place for carry out. Some reviews here are out of date. This is not a seafood restaurant. Excellent traditional Cantonese, including shrimp, with a few Mongolian and Schezwan dishes. I do phone or online order, live nearby and leave right away, yet order is ready when I arrive or within a couple of minutes.
Pretty decent crawfish, the sauce is best with corn or potatoes. The only thing that would make it better, is if they could add more crawfish in 1lbs.
First of all this is a seafood restaurant, not a Chinese restaurant. That being said, I haven't been to the original in years and my wife (who waitressed and bartended at another location) has never been and it was Outstanding! How can you beat eating fresh fish that was swimming in Hawaii yesterday on your plate today cooked to perfection. With some Calamari & garlic rolls to start, and a side or two...my mouth is watering all over again 🤔 Highly recommend
I ordered combination lo mein noodles. It was supposed to come with beef, chicken and shrimp. I got two shrimp a few pieces of chicken and they used pork instead of beef. I don't eat pork and didn't have time to go back since I was on my lunch break.
