shopped here a half dozen times.
If you want anything half decent you need to call in advance. the flash frozen stuff is sometimes twice frozen.
How does a fish market run out of clams half our after opening? Oysters?
Full retail price. ($25 for amaebi)
Other fish markets in the surrounding area offer wholesale price.
only redeeming factor is they accept CC and marta (at the service window) is really nice.

Nobody helped. Pitiful selection of live seafood (halibut and amaebi only).
Pacific Fresh fish had better prices and friendlier service (1 star extra for each). TBH 99 ranch selection is greater other than some sashimi cuts. (don't talk to me about quality, i know, but really).
You want to see a real fish market go to Japan or Hong Kong...... personally I like live fish and you can find more seafood selection in a tank at xyz random chinese restaurant than here. Freshness is king.

It's an Okay place to go to get Chinese food fix for west-siders who don't want to travel all the way to SGV or...Hong Kong.
That said, would recommend LUNCH ONLY.
Dinner prices are astronomical:
Dou miao (snow peas/qing chow): $15.95 for a plate of vegetables.
Walnut Shrimp is double the price for the same lunch portion (done pretty well, just...same size for double the price).

I can handle myself, but there are much better boats where they bust their ass getting you on fish and helping out. It's the difference between going to a restaurant where they wait on you or if you gotta flag them down for every napkin, etc.
For instance when you get a sculpin with spines, good crews are already there with dikes/clippers to cut the spines off. They're loading bait from the stern and bringing it to the bow to make sure everyone has bait.

If you're a guy and like to eat a ton of food (combination plate beef & chicken + small salad + heaping scoop of rice + hawaiian plate style macaroni salad)... mm i'm a sucker for macaroni salad... and mixing my food together and shoveling it down my throat.
I can spend $30 on Thai takeout and order 3 things from Ono Hawaiian BBQ fo myself, so for a place to fill me and be tasty for cheap is a +++.
If you're a girl and like to eat a ton of food you'd like this place.
If you're a girl who wants to show your man u care about him, you'd take him here over Urasawa...jokes, but for fast + comfortable + lotta food, would definitely come back.
The owner is a nice, helpful, smiling dude.

{SERVICE} was pretty good/fast to correct kitchen mistakes (there were many).
The tea they couldn't get right - one pot was served with hot water, the other pot with lukewarm water you could dip your finger in and hold it there.
-------
{AWFUL ENTREES}, the chicken pot pie was old garlic (the kind that turns color because it's so old).
the rabbit special was salt overload, the rabbit ravioli tasted more like the chicken pot pie than the chicken pot pie.
the beef wellington was fine but how can you go wrong with meat and puff pastry
the oxtail gnocchi, well it tasted like a piece of shit but not even a piece of shit cause the gnocchi tasted like diarrhea, there was no bite nor chew to it.
the broccolini supposed to be with garlic and chili came with no garlic, no chili. then when it came again, you could definitely taste the POS garlic they use.
Buying these staples shouldn't cost $10!
