Service was okay, but food was all on point. Braised goose is savory and full of umami, plus it's sizzling for minutes after coming to table. House special stir fry was not memorable but not a bad dish, wish it had more wok hey though. The pork stomach was the best thing that night, but be careful with the mustard if you cannot stand the heat, or pro tip: you can have it on the side.
3 stars on Yelp but packed with Asians on a Friday night? All the signs telling you this place is going to be good. Don't sleep on this one folks- Renton Seafood is no frills and serves up classic and authentic Cantonese dishes without having to trek to the ID. FYI they don't serve dim sum. Ask about their fresh seafood selection and then get whatever it is steamed with garlic, I promise you it will be good. Every time I've been here, nearly every table in this packed house will have a wasabi chicken on the table. If you like cold chicken salad type things, I highly recommend this dish.
Ordered take out and the food came out so quick. We ordered black bean chicken with veggies, salt and pepper pork chops and 2 orders of beef chow fun. The flavors were delicious. I know times are hard but I felt the amount of food was on the minimal side.
With few Cantonese restaurants on the Eastside, my family ventured south to Renton Seafood Restaurant. This was my first time, but my family had been once before and said it was pretty good overall. We came at 5pm on a Sunday evening and the place was packed, granted that the restaurant is pretty small. They have about 7 tables that seat 8 people and maybe 5-6 tables that seat 4 people each, but with little walking space in between. They don't play any music, but it was comfortably loud with all the conversations going on at the other tables. We were immediately seated in the corner near the door, which FYI can get a little drafty when the door opens and closes. They didn't wipe the table down well as there were some strands of noodles, but I had a wet wipe on me and just wiped it off a bit more; we probably could've asked them to wipe it down, but they were very busy attending other tables. The carpet is also worn and the floor isn't that clean, so don't look down. The menu is quite extensive and has 6 pages plus a lunch special menu on the back. We ordered the ROASTED DUCK (HALF), the FRIED TOFU AND FISH STONE POT, the MUSHROOM YEE-MEIN, and the GARLIC PEAVINE. Of the dishes we ordered, the ROASTED DUCK (HALF) and the GARLIC PEAVINE were the dishes that stood out and would order again. The ROASTED DUCK was well-marinated and very meaty. For $16, it was well worth it. They drizzle a sauce on top which is savory and just slightly sweet. The GARLIC PEAVINE was super tender and had strong garlic flavor. It was fresh and a deep green color. This dish is about as good as it gets. The FRIED TOFU AND FISH STONE POT was alright. It wasn't super colorful as both the fried tofu and fish were brown, but there were mushrooms and napa cabbage on the bottom. It was savory, but kind of on the bland side. I also wish there were more vegetables in it. Lastly, the MUSHROOM YEE-MEIN (fried chewy noodles, like chowmein's chewier cousin) was a little overcooked. The noodles were lacking chew. The dish was also soupier than it should've been- normally yee-mein is served dry, but this dish was saucy which made the noodles soggier than preferred. Service varies depending on how busy they are. They brought our dishes out in a staggered order, but we had to wait a while for the peavine. They didn't forget, but we had finished all the rest of the food and were waiting a while for it to come out. Servers are friendly and they give you complimentary orange slices at the end. Overall, Renton Seafood is the most authentic Cantonese food we've found outside of International District. While I wouldn't go back for all their dishes, they are better and more authentic than Mai Place, Yummy Garden, and Royal Kitchen, but a step below the recently closed, Red Bamboo. 3.75/5 for food, 3/5 for service, 3/5 for atmosphere
Multiple friends recommended Renton Seafood Restaurant's Roasted Duck (aka BBQ Duck) so we had to go try it. The decor of the restaurant is typical of most neighborhood Chinese restaurants but it is bright and well-kept. Menu offers a good balance of vegetarian and non vegetarian options, a good variety of seafood dishes, and some interesting chef's special. We ordered the Roasted Duck and it did not disappoint. It was SO good! The skin was crispy, and the meat was tender, juicy and flavorful. Steamed Oysters with Garlic and Scallions were fresh and tasty. The Sautéed Fish Fillet was a bit salty but still decent. The Stir-Fried Cured Meat with Veggies and Lotus Root was refreshing and the Beef Chow Fun was tasty. Food was served promptly, service was good, and prices were reasonable! A very pleasant experience overall. Will definitely come back for more!
We previously had dim sum here and wanted to pop in for a late lunch vs down to Lucky House, Triumph or Great Wall Mall. Yup, it was the same place, with greenish interior, but I saw no dim sum plates on anyone's table. The waitress came with the menu, we flipped through several pages and saw lunch specials on the back. She comes back and I ask about dim sum. Nope. New owners and they haven't served it for five years! We ended up staying and ordered garlic green beans, almond chicken, and fried sticky rice. I've never seen almond chicken like this (probably the prepped chicken for various stir fries and then dipped in a coating), but everything was actually really good. We had plenty to take home for another meal and I snazzed up the rice with scrambled egg shreds, and more cilantro and green onions.
