Firstly, this is not your normal seafood restaurant, prices here are really high as they cater to the higher paying customers. Their focus is on large, huge lobsters and crabs so you got it, the larger they are, the rarer they are, the more expensive they are.
The expensive seafood here has no fixed price, they are priced by weight and size, so read the menu carefully to see which ones suit your need. They do have many set menus where they charge a fixed unit price per pound for lobsters and include some dishes so if you find one that suits your palette, you can request for the size of the lobster or crab to go with it. The one we got was way way bigger than my feet (maybe I don't have a large foot but it's really huge).
The lobsters were mostly fried to crispy on the outside with the coating but inside is still relatively moist. The parts nearer the shell tends to be a little dry. One thing I do wonder is why do they fry for everyone? Is it possible to steam them so that the original flavour can be tasted? I reckon the problem with steaming is that once it cools, it is not as nice whereas when it's fried, it can last longer tasting good. In addition, they do include a whole lot of fries in there so you don't have to worry about going hungry.
The other dishes are pretty good as well, fried rice, vegetables and soup but usually customers just rave about the huge lobsters and crabs.
Would recommend coming here if it's to impress people or bring non locals for a really good impressive experience but be prepared to pay upwards of CAD 500 for a group of 6.
The food here was amazing! Super flavourful, good portions, well seasoned and I never imagined to eat seafood in so many varying forms in one sitting. We had the $500 family meal. Just beware the crab is by weight and they will offer you their bigger crabs that will cost you more than the set price. Just keep that in mind. Servers don’t speak great English and come off a little rude, but I wouldn’t say that it ruined out experience by any means.
Delicious food albeit pricey.
I came with a group of 4 and got the "King Crab and Lobster Dinner for 4" combo.
It's supposed to be $488 but we paid about $80 more because the lobsters and king crab they picked out for us weighed more than what was included in that price.
The dishes were good and make for great photo ops. Although it might be obvious, just come for the seafood. I think they have some beef and pork dishes, but not much. Also, compared to other Chinese restaurants that usually have sweet soup at the end, this place only gave one macaron each. Kinda of a let down considering the price; it would've been nice to have a better finish.
Although it's pretty pricey, the portions are big and we took home a lot of leftovers.
I'd recommend this place for big celebrations once in a while!
Great place for seafood and family dinners. Even going with a large group of friends to devour a mountain of lobster!
They did raise the price from before but the portions are still large. They go by the weight of the seafood so there's no fixed pricing but they do have crab combo options or lobster combo options. There use to be the dessert soup at the end but all we got is macaroons and there was only a dot of filling in the center. A little dissapointing but over all the mains were good.
They did follow covid protocol so that was great!
Wonderful place for dinner with family and friends. A bit pricey but the food is so satisfying good. Seafood is very fresh. The taste is very good. Staffs are friendly and accommodating. My friend has food allergies. They did their best to serve. Definitely I will go again.
If you like lobster and crab, this is a place to celebrate a special occasion. The restaurant is expensive but it is a great experience.
They only accept cash or debit. Huge car park and the restaurant is big but always filled. There are floor to ceiling tanks filled with lobsters.
I have been here twice and the service is great and the food and the experience enjoyable.
They have set menus to choose from. Part of the experience is they bring your lobster or crab to the table where you have the opportunity to take a picture with your “catch”. The food is then freshly prepared and served.
If your “catch” is larger you pay the difference than the size/weight in the set menu.
It’s better to come in a larger group.
It would be great if you can cook your lobster in multiple styles vs one style.
There are very popular for their Lobster Mountain Dinners. Another group had the huge tower while we were there.
This is really worth to go for seafood restaurant in Toronto. First to be here invited my friend. The environment, food, taste and service are impressive. Especially the lobster taste is so fresh and delicious. So many people are here , good business. Strongly recommend to be here for family and friends gathering. Won’t be disappointed!
Ordered a small set meal and tacked on e-fu noodles, sweet and sour pork, and deep fried oysters. Lobster mountain was fun and filling but lobster fried rice left much to be desired. Prices are steep, as expected for seafood, but you also get the sense that some staff are pushing you to buy larger and more expensive sets. For context, king crab was $70 a pound the night we dined. Given that the minimum weight of crab was 5 lbs, you’re effectively increasing your bill by $350 minimum. Food was overall delicious.
As an aside, it feels a little unsettling to be surrounded by the live shellfish you’re about to eat.
