“ I recently dined at Newport Seafood Restaurant and indulged in their lobster dish, and I must say, it was an incredible experience! The presentation was stunning, with a generous serving of perfectly cooked lobster atop a bed of flavorful noodles. The lobster was incredibly fresh, boasting a sweet, succulent taste that paired wonderfully with the savory sauce. Each bite was bursting with flavor, and the addition of green onions added a nice crunch. The noodles were cooked to perfection, soaking up all the delicious juices from the lobster. The ambiance of the restaurant was inviting, making it a perfect spot for a special occasion or a casual dinner with friends. The staff was attentive and friendly, ensuring our dining experience was top-notch. If you're a seafood lover, do not miss out on the lobster at Newport Seafood Restaurant—it’s a dish that will leave you craving more! ”
“ Worth every penny. Highly recommend. This place is authentic. And it'll help if you go with someone who speaks Chinese. But that's because we were the only non-Chinese patrons there (my assumption based on the observation that I only heard ppl speak Chinese). When I looked around, the tables were all full even though it was like 3 p.m. And each table was full of food !!!! These are expensive too. So you know the native patrons appreciate these dishes. I also noticed that some people were taking home 'the sauce.' This can mean only one thing: the sauce cannot be replicated at home. Anyhow. If you are looming for authentic Chinese seafood, this place will not disappoint. 100% going back. My aunt paid on this occasion after I passed an exam. But I'm going to rake my out-of-state visitors here from hereon. ”
“ Absolutely delicious, very large, family style portions. Super fast service, perfect for families, or groups of four or more. Friendly staff. Prices are worth it. High-quality cuts of beef and enormous shrimp. ”
“ The restaurant has a distinct Chinese charm, featuring beautiful mahogany partition decorations. The seafood served is exceptionally fresh, which is a highlight. I also appreciate valet attendant, very dedicated and polite boy! A good tip is to make reservations ahead of time on weekends for a smoother experience. ”
“ Second visit and it did not disappoint!!! It's a must Seafood restaurant when you’re in San Gabriel/Alhambra area. Attended a birthday celebration and absolutely enjoyed almost every single dish ordered. Steamed King Crab - the presentation is the same as the taste! Soft, tasty and it’s worth the 700 price! 5/5 Beef Loc lac - tender/juicy and the right amount of pepper and salt. Dipping sauce is available too. 5/5 Newport Special Lobster - seasonings coated the lobster meat so well with tons of green onions that makes it too tasty. 5/5 House Special Fried Noodles - fresh and delicious vegetables. It just the right amount of sauce for my palette. 5/5 Braided Crabmeat and Fish Maw Soup - had two portion since it was good. Perfect soup for the chilly night. 4/5 Crispy Fried Sole fish - nothing special. Fish is thin so it’s crispy. 3/5 Special Fried Rice - it could had been perfect if it just a little more salt. Love the toppings though. 4/5 Our servers were great and attentive. Great dining atmosphere. Newport Seafood is the spot to go when craving for seafood/Chinese dishes. Strongly recommended!! Be prepared for a valet if no available parking spots on the street. Wish it’s free since I am guessing parking is solely for the restaurant. ”
“ A friend recommended the lobster here, saying it was delicious. We ordered the largest lobster in the restaurant that day, weighing over 10 pounds. It was stir-fried with ginger and scallions, and tasted wonderfully fragrant and flavorful. The geoduck sashimi was also incredibly fresh and tender. The other dishes were decent, though not particularly outstanding. The complimentary dessert was a sago soup with a unique Vietnamese fruit—I'm not sure of the name—along with coconut meat. It was absolutely delicious. The downside is that the private rooms are quite small, and there are no effective partitions between them. The adjacent room might host a gathering, and the sound of collective laughter can be heard constantly, making it very noisy. ”
“ Newport Seafood never disappoints! My recent birthday dinner was perfect—no wait for an early seating. My family has been loyal patrons since Newport Beach and Golden Deli strip mall days, and the owners’ warmth (remember those delicious oranges?) still shines. The house special lobster is a must-try, perfect for out-of-state visitors. This San Gabriel gem is one of my top picks for an unforgettable seafood experience. ”
“ A wonderful Chinese restaurant that specializes in seafood. The lobster and crab are gigantic and the highlight of the menu. All other dishes are priced well and the portions are huge. This place is ideal for big celebrations or gatherings with large groups. The staff are very nice and friendly, and the interior is well decorated. BEWARE OF MARKET PRICE, if you are not aware then verify before you buy, much higher than I expected. ”
