Full House Seafood

Traditional Cantonese style cuisine with large portion of serving. The dishes are delicious without heavy MSG after taste. Price is also reasonable.

Maybe we got lucky or people eat late here but as soon as we walked in we got a table. It took us 7 minutes to figure out what we want and place our order (my mom signaled our server that we were ready). We ordered spicy salted fried squid, fried stuff tofu, sautee water spinach (i think), house noodle soup, two orders of rice, and Crab in black bean sauce. First dish was out in 5 minutes. Since we ordered many entrees and ate family style, we ate whatever was ready first. Everything was flavorful but only if you know how to eat some things. For example, my mom claimed the fried squid was bland but she needed to get the salted garlic pieces from the plate to have the right taste. The squid pieces were perfectly fried with a light coat of starch but like all fried foods, it is best to eat them before they cool off cause it will get soggy or too hard (think of your McDonald fries in the same way). The tofu breading was too thick but that is the only way it doesnt fall apart because the Tofu piece is too big. If they cut the Tofu into half the size, then they can use less breading which would make it perfect (use sesame soy sauce to dip). The house special noodle soup had big scallops (nice surprise), shrimp and pork pieces along with egg noodles in a light broth. You will need to add soy sauce to dip your pork pieces for flavor. Do Not pour soy sauce into the broth, it will ruin the soup (unless you like it that way but it changes the flavor profile). Portions were huge so we got left overs which we didnt plan on having. Prices seem reasonable for 5 dishes. Bill was $140 since crab was market price.

Decent food with big portions, served with house tea and the check comes with with orange and fortune cookies. The beef stew is good but the only issue is that the radish is not cooked with the strew, they were added to the stew last minutes with no favor.

Never disappoints! Hearty serving. Tasty and fresh ingredients. The duck is ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️! Tender, juicy a must try! Service is also a 👍

I got a little too greedy and bought too much for two people BUT needless to say it was so delicious here! Stopped by around 9-10 pm ish for a seafood-Restaurant moment I think— this place may have the best soup dumplings: generous sized with plenty of soup and meat inside 👍👍👍 The shrimp fried rice was so delicious and the salted spiced fried squid was fragrant-mouth watering. Definitely not too salty either which was nice! My friend and I foolishly also ordered an amazing fried tofu dish salted and spiced as well. The texture of the tofu was it’s the crispy batter was just so so good. Did we partake in too much fried food? Yeah— but was it yummy? Also yea XD so no regrets! It’s not as expensive as one would think for the portion size— the value I would say is fair! Could’ve def fed at least 4-5 ppl with the four dishes ordered. The staff was super friendly and food wait was not long at all. The total was about 60 bucks after tax between two people but I think on average one would spend 20$ per person depending on how much order versus number of people at table We were too full too quickly thanks to the dumplings so we had to take leftovers to go but it was an awesome meal. 10000/10 will come back and try some other dishes and of course: satiate those soup dumpling cravings again!

Great place! They have delicious food and great customer service.

When in LA and you're craving authentic Chinese food, this is the place to go! I have not not liked a single food I order here. My family has been coming here since in the 90s. Good place for a big or small group. You'll be coming back once you try it.

Great amazing food. Wasnt busy when we got there at 6 but more people came in around 715pm. Great place for a family dinner.

FULL HOUSE SEAFOOD RESTAURANT is a small restaurant that can handle large orders. We ordered five party trays and fed over 20 people with it... with leftovers. FRIED RICE is delicious. CHOW MEIN is cooked and seasoned well. RICE NOODLES was definitely NOT flavorless. ORANGE CHICKEN was crispy. The beef in the BEEF BROCCOLI was super tender. The broccoli was crisp. The portions are ginormous!

I think this is the OG of Chinese restaurant in Chinatown. There are a lot of choices in Chinatown for Chinese food but this one never disappoints. Price is good value for the serving, there are cheaper places (Wongkok) but this one balances out since the dining area is clean and service is also fast. Great food for groups so you can try a lot of dishes. I especially love the crispy squid and that you can do Peking duck - even for half order. Most places yoill need to order full duck. Came here on a Friday night - with DTLA parking is always street or find a paid parking lot nearby.

Only giving 2 stars because food was good But service was quite awful Worker after paying came up to me and kept pushing me to pay him more money And I kept telling him I payed but he didn't want to Listen and kept pushing me to pay him so I payed him $5 in cash but he kept asking me for more And I called back to complain but they just didn't want to listen to what I had to say about their workers... Honestly ruined it for me forever Don't recommend due to Service

Great ambience amazing food. Great customer service!!! I highly recommend! Best seafood!!!

I have been coming with the fambam here at Full House for as long as I can remember - We've always come here as a group to celebrate a birthday or a special family event or sometimes just for a casual dinner when we don;t feel like cooking. The food here here has always been good and service has never been tardy, typically after we order, the food starts landing on our table one after the other often 2 to 3 at a time, our family likes to eat and we love how generous Full House is with their servings which is perfect if you come here as group! I remember my Dad's favorite here is the whole deep fried sole fish, it's actually really good and crunchy down to the bone, my personal favorite is the Salted Fried Pork Chops garnished with lots of Jalapenos and also the Calamari! Everything fried here is yummy - why is that? LOL But seriously, I've never had anything here that I did not like hence Full House has become our go to place when we are craving some good ole' family style Chinese food or if we're taking our friends from out of town who also craves a good Chinese dish - you can never go wrong! Their hot & sour soup is always a good start, add some calamari and their house fried rice then you can just go kray-kray with your order after that lol (don't forget the honey walnut prawns! TDF!!!), they have a myriad of options which I can confidently say, out of the many we ordered, none has disappointed me... yes, even the salty fried shrimp in shells!!! sooo good! Obviously, I can just talk and talk good food and good eats here at Full House, but there is nothing like trying it out for yourself! I know everyone has their own preference but one thing for sure is that you'll leave here full! There is a paid car park on the same side of the street or just a wee bit off Bernard, there is a structure where you could also pay to park your car in this almost deserted haunted building (just kidding - it's not haunted...or is it?) Enjoy! Cheers!

One of the few remaining banquet-style Cantonese restaurants in our beloved Chinatown is still holding well on its own. Smaller in stature behind some of the other bigger names and locations, Full House may have been in the shadows, but they have shined in fulfilling staples in Cantonese Cuisine. This is not a Dim Sum restaurant, but you will have dinner favorites with especially fresh seafood varieties. As they may struggled through recent years, there are hits and misses, but you will get a good Cantonese meal with decent service. Parking is street, and/or a couple of local pay lots. Evening hours don't seem to have too many issues in finding street parking within a short walk.

I have been coming here for the past 18 years and every time I come eat, it just brings me back memories of my first time being here. Everything looks the same and the food never changes, in fact it just gets better every time. So happy to see that their food, quality of service and ambiance remain the same. Since Chinatown doesn't look as nice as it used back in the days. This restaurant stays loyal to the dot. Our food was delicious and our server's were the sweetest ! If you want real authentic Chinese food, this is the place !

Food is good. Service is good. Quiet restaurant most days of the week. Not ADA accessible.

I have no idea why I haven't gotten to reviewing my all-time favorite Chinese restaurant. But this place has given my family a taste of delicious Chinese food ever since before I was even born! My grandmother showed my parents this when they first arrived here in the late 90's. Growing up, this was the spot for large family gatherings or for a family meal together. We always leave Full House feeling SUPER FULL and satisfied, and RARELY come out without any leftovers. The serving size, portion, taste is amazing. Over the years, I have watched the waiters improve on their English. They have practically watched me grow up too. All time favorite go-to orders: - seafood soup (heavenly, hearty mix of seafood base soup with soft tofu and assorted veggies and soft fish) - crispy rice noodle (chowmein) with seafood, such a delicious clump of saucy noodles with seafood mix and broccoli - fried squid with spicy salt (delicious calamari!), my mom's all-time favorite dish from here. Each piece of squid is flavorful and has a nice breaded crunch around it - fish fillet with crab meat sauce (extremely delicious pairing of warm crab meat sauce with soft breaded fish, my all time favorite dish! Other things we have tried: - sizzling plate of filet mignon Cantonese style (sweetly marinated, curry-like sauce on the meat leaves a very delightful taste on every first bite of meat. Meat is tender and delicious!) - seafood hotpot (served in a small 'hot' pot, there's assorted steamed seafood faves such as squid, scallops, shrimp, fish, etc) - fried chicken (crunchy fried and flavorful skin, my least favorite simply because I enjoy dark meat and juicyness more) - sizzling rice soup (crunchy rice that slowly softens up the longer it is in the hearty broth) - chinese broccoli (steamed veggies topped with a delicious oyster sauce) - beef broccoli (classic taste and familiar take on this well-known dish) My family and I love to come here when we can. We all get a nice meal in and have leftovers for a very great price. I've gone here during lunch, but mainly come here at night for dinner. In the morning/ lunch, there is always a lot of empty tables for you to get a quiet meal in. For dinner, it gets more busy and especially for weekends where families come together in large groups. It's very convenient to come here after any event in LA because they are open fairly late. The latest I've eaten here was at around 2AM. It is located on the street of Downtown so at night, I definitely suggest to always be on the lookout walking to and fro the restaurant. Parking can be tough but the closest parking in the area is along the sidewalk for metered parking spots. There used to be a parking plaza that was more active that let you park for free if you got it validated from the restaurant, however, after COVID the business shut down. Our best hopes are to find parking for free along the streets or pay metered parking. I heavily suggest to make sure to eat here with others, not only for the amount of food you will be so full from, but out of safety being in the city.

Five stars for the restaurant service and friendliness. We came here since it was the only place open around us. The server helped us order quickly and came out with the food very fast! The food honestly is good but not amazing. My favorite would be the sweet and sour pork or kung pao chicken. The fried calamari didn't have much flavor and it wasn't crunchy. It tasted a bit bland. The chow mein wasn't that good either, the noodles were super soft. But good service and good price for the amount of food we got.

This is one of the best places in town, if you're looking for a hole in the wall joint with an amazing variety of dishes you need to come here. I ordered the combination 2 special for two which came with egg rolls, fried shrimp, bbq pork, sweet and sour pork, mushroom chicken, a large bowl of soup, hot tea, and two sodas for $45!!! The service was quick and prompt, this is definitely my new favorite spot in the area. We're so stuffed and there's still enough food for left overs. Place is a hidden gem in Chinatown.

I haven't gone here in a long time. Today I came with 18 people for a birthday. We had the best experience and superb service. Everything went very well no mistakes on the food. Everyone was happy. The food is always consistent from the first day I came here till now. They deserve the 280 gratuity. I highly recommend full house. It's in Chinatown so don't expect a fancy place. Parking is pn the right. Right when you exit from the freeway it's 10.00. Definitely coming back for many more years

This place was the first restaurant we saw driving on Broadway. Parking was not too good, but we got lucky. We entered and was seated immediately. There were no patrons but us. The place was the typical Chinese themed restaurant with Chinese artwork. We ordered the lobster with black bean sauce, Kung Pao Chicken, and noodles. The food came out fresh and the lobster was amazing. We partially devoured everything The downside was the neighborhood. A homeless person came in with his bike and a big commotion ensued with the staff and him. It was quite an unpleasant moment while we were eating. Overall, he food is great- perhaps you might come during the day. I'm not sure what it would be like at night. Stay Safe Foodies.

This is our best Chinese Restaurant authentic and super taste food we love this place big thanks to everyone work here

Always spot on delicious and staff are accommodating, swift, and kind-hearted. The steamed spinach. With garlic bits is healthy and scrumptious as well as braised tofu with veggies in a brown gravy that is light and tasty. For a fast meal if you're heading to a downtown concert, this is your spot!

Don't get- Crispy noodle - unless you eat it right away. Maybe it was good. I don't know. I guess I waited too long and it got soggy. This isn't a favorite dish of mine so I can't really rate it. Fried pork chop - not salty or peppery enough. Overall just bland. Orange chicken - too chewy. Pieces are also small so I think it's more batter than chicken. Flavor is typical and good though. Okay dishes Chicken wonton soup - soup is perfectly bland, but soothing. Wontons were plentiful and tasty. Overall I liked the soup and the wonton, but not together? Maybe needed more seasoning Chicken chow mein - I'd recommend. This dish wasn't bad String beans - I can't say anything about the flavor because my table ordered it less salt and man! You gotta have the salt! But MAN were these string beans CRUNCHY! Xiao long bao - overall good! Definitely recommend this dish Service - good. Not too overbearing and checked on us plenty of times. Would have given this place a two star, but the service brought it up

This has been the spot in LA Chinatown. Excellent food and a good place for late-night. Orange chicken is quite tasty as well as the pan-fried noodles and Chinese broccoli. This is a staple in LA to be celebrated, even with its modest dining atmosphere and lack of street parking that affects all of Chinatown. 5 stars)

This place needs a makeover. Feels worn out and worn down. Food the quality of Panda Inn really, nothing noteworthy but maybe our fault cause we didn't do any of the live seafood cause it's very expensive. Didn't like flavors or textures to be honest, with tourists seeming to be the only reason this place can stay open.

The best Chinese food in Chinatown. Not gonna blow you away with amazing presentation or fancy names of food, just straight up authentic Chinese food. Fast, Hot, Flavorful and pretty big portions. Service is what you'd expect, not the best English, but they are very alert and will get you what you need if you request something. Ambiance is good for large parties, we usually come here last minute with big groups or I come here with my wife around 9pm for their sizzling rice soup and baked pork chops (add their chili oil, it's a must to any dish for that extra hot flavor). Always consistent and comforting to give me the food coma I need to rest. There are many great Chinese food restaurants in Chinatown but this has been my favorite as an LA resident for the past 35+ years

Nice ppl work here, Very nice quality food, head to the chef We enjoy the quietness and yummy food Lunch special 10.99-12.99 My fave are seafood hog pot and salt pepper tofu Great service IMO :-)

Thin crispy noodles, glazed walnut shrimp, garlic snow pea leaves were amazing, Mongolian beef and Chinese broccoli were also good. Orange chicken was very crispy, but a little hard to taste the actual chicken. Ambiance is family friendly. Service was quick and kind! Parking is street metered parking, I believe 1 hour is a dollar and it's free after 8pm. There is a paid lot a block over.

Food was great!! Love the egg drop soup Service was awesome Love the glad lazy Susan on the tables and the oranges at the end of meal.

I always order take out from here and the food is always fresh and yummy! I absolutely love their crispy noodle chowmein! It's so fresh and the gravy they use is delicious! I haven't eaten in the restaurant in a while but I'm sure it would splendid if I did. Highly recommend this place for the food!

I found a piece of plastic cooked into the bbq pork of the bbq pork buns I had doordashed. DISGUSTING. Who knows what other garbage they carelessly get into the food? Doordash refunded me but I still ate some of the bun and my kids ate the other dishes. I will never order from them again. Be warned.

Decided to give this restaurant a try as I was driving by and saw many people waiting outside. Thought it must be good, right? lol The service was fine, but the food itself was pretty terrible. I ordered the Mongolian beef and the house special noodles. The Mongolian beef was so chewy and oily. The meat had no flavor at all, it just tasted like hot oil. The noodles were okay but definitely not worth coming back for.

I have not been to Full House Seafood restaurant in years but I'm glad that the food quality has remained the same, if not, has become a little bit better now. Celebrated my sister in law's birthday today and of course, true to Filipino tradition, the birthday celebrant pays for the birthday meal and treats family and friends. We opted for the family-style spread: Crab Meat with Fish Maw Soup, Shrimps Spicy Salt in Shell, Seafood Pan Fried Crispy Noodle, Combination Fried Rice, Mongolian Beef, Lettuce Wraps, Deep Fried Sole Fish w/ Special Sauce, Fried Pork Chops w/ Spicy Salt, and Glazed Honey Walnut Prawns. Overall, all the dishes were well-seasoned and came out piping hot from the kitchen. The fried rice had that distinct wok smell so you know you're about to dig in something tasty. The deep fried shrimps with the shell were crispy and not overly salty. The glazed prawns were coated just enough and had the right balance of honey and mayonnaise. The prawns were also plump and walnuts the right crisp. The beef was cut against the grain (therefore, tender) and the sauce was the perfect viscosity (hence, not too thick with cornstarch). The pork chops did not have any bones and residual layer of fat as I've seen in other restaurants. Probably the only dish that did not wow me was the soup. While it had crab meat in it, it was well under seasoned. And yes, you can bet your dollar all the dishes were seasoned with mono sodium glutamate. Parking in the area can be tough depending on the time of day. But if you do find yourself in Chinatown after a weekend of Dodger baseball or just looking to celebrate some event with a big family style meal, be sure to try A-rated Full House Seafood. Be warned! There is another restaurant called Full MOON House directly across which is a B-rated establishment. And in case you haven't heard, recent scientific studies have debunked the myths that MSG is bad for your health. Discover Magazine has reported that the FDA considers the addition of MSG to foods to be 'generally recognized as safe'. So the next time, don't consider passing up on some umami-rich Chinese food for some other cuisine.

My favorite place! The food, service, everything is the best. You can always count on a good time here.

this is a great restaurant in china town. 1.great service 2. great food especially the crab, and shrimp overall great food, great service and, nice a clean environment

This place was honestly a 10/10! I would definitely recommend to anyone coming to Chinatown or passing by LA. The beef curry was just mouthwatering, everything we ordered had so much flavor and spices in it, we loved it. Waiters were also amazing, they kept checking in on us making sure to fill our water cups and asked if we needed more napkins or anything else. We brought our 10 month old and they were baby friendly, even set up his chair for him! The restaurant looks overall really nice, it sort of looks like a buffet but I really like the fish tank and their style of decorating. What we ordered: Beef Curry, Orange chicken (OMG literally the crispiest and tastiest orange chicken I've ever had), and Beef Chow Fun (soooo saucy and flavorful, loved every bite) The total for my husband and I was only $50.25 which is such a great price! Not to mention we stuffed ourselves in the restaurant and still has enough leftovers to eat for lunch the next day lol! Overall: loved the food, the people, the area and the experience

The wonderful thing about this place is it's always the same, the people, the service, food, portions, hours, but... my 2 favorites were different! :( after I spoke with a friend, I heard that they had a new chef. That would explain the change in the presentation & batter of the "calamari" (fried squid with spicy salt) & the fried shrimp with spicy salt. Sadly, The batter is now heavy & it's a bit greasy. Everything else was great!

OG Chinese restaurant, the food here is amazing, fresh , so delicious and generous! They are open till 1 or 2am, which is crazy..but much appreciated. Good fast service and the price is right too! If you want really really good Cantonese/Chinese food.. go here! You cannot go wrong...

Today I ordered our usual menu with the exception of honey walnut prawns & Chinese broccoli w/oyster sauce. As I expected from Full House, their food is always excellent. Another exception is I used Door Dash instead of Grub Hub and I will always use Door Dash. I recommend everyone to use Door Dash.

The food is the main attraction, the Orange flavor beef is comparable to Yang Chow but way cheaper especially during lunch specials for $13.99, the salt and pepper calamari is $14.99 . Pan fried noodles get the thin noodle as it comes out alittle crispy at $13.99. The service was attentive, they kept our tea kettle full and re filled our glasses of water. Ambiance is typical Chinese restaurant with a large menu. Highly recommended

I would say about 3.5 stars. The restaurant is hot with not much ventilation. I'm not the biggest Chinese food fan. We ordered quite a bit for 4 adults and one child. Peking duck was typical but good. The Bao made it better because they were soft and sweet. Calamari way too salty as well as the pork. Wonton soup was on point. I definitely liked the broth and wonton. Honey walnut shrimp was okay. The sauce wasn't satisfying. I can't pinpoint what it was. My daughter loved it and she's 9. The service was actually good and quick

My family and I have been coming here for over 30 years and all I can say the quality has gone down. My last visit was a few years back since I had moved away for a few years. I had a girls day with my daughter, sister and mom and we were excited to take my daughter here. We wanted a little bit of everything so we were pleased to see a lunch portion menu. We ordered house pan fried noodles, shrimp fried rice, beed n brocolli, sauteed asparagus, garlic green beans, salt and pepper shrimp, salt and pepper calamari, salt and pepper pork chop and an order of juicy dumplings. They informed us that the juicy dumplings would take 20 mins and we were ok with that. But, it came out sooner. The dumplings were not steamed all the way as the wrapper was still doughy and meat slighlty uncooked. So we went it back. Then we received the salt and pepper pork chop and that too was not cooked all the way and the meat had a weird taste to it almost like it was old meat. We were not the only table who sent it back, the table behind us did as well. The calamari had no seasoing at all and tasted just like bland batter, no salt and pepper. We would have left this as a full plate but my mom felt embarrassed to leave it. If we left it it would have shown that it was not good. We packed the rest of the food but it definitely was not what we remember. Needless to say we will not be making the drive to Chinatown to eat here again.

This is my all-time favorite Chinese restaurant located in the heart of Chinatown. It has become a family tradition for us to come here to celebrate special occasions. In my opinion, it offers the best Chinese food in Chinatown. My favorite dishes include the salted fish fried rice, fillet steak with black pepper, fried pork chop, deep-fried calamari, fish fillet with black bean sauce, and Mongolian beef. The best part is that it's reasonably priced, and the staff is friendly and welcoming. The service is fast and efficient, and the ambiance is excellent. I highly recommend this restaurant and would definitely come back!

Me and my Dad decided to come here after the Laker game. We were greeted with rude behavior from a woman at the front who just yelled at us as we walked in saying, "WE CLOSE". Never coming here again.

Huge portions, great food and service. Full House Seafood is located in the heart of Chinatown. It's open late with takeout, delivery and dine-in options with good social distancing practices. This restaurant attracts a mixed clientele of local families, downtown workers and tourists alike. You can choose from Chinese-American classics like orange chicken, chow mein, fried rice and wonton soup, ordered ala carte or family-style, served with appetizer, soup, entree, for 3 or more, or more traditional Chinese dishes like congee, winter melon soup, abalone, and seasonal seafood. Inside, the tables are spaced far apart for customer safety, with limited capacity. The lunch specials look like a good bargain, as well as the traditional Chinese breakfast, served before 10 am. The Cantonese-style rice noodles is made gluten free here, with a combination of chicken, pork and steak, sauteed onions and vegetables with a hint of curry. The portion is very big, enough to share. The fish fillet dishes come with a large portion of fish, about four six ounce fillets at least. Choose from preparations like Kung pow, black beans sauce, garlic sauce, moo shu and more. Homemade chili oil is available for $5 at the register. This place is an especially great deal for the large portions since one entree can be divided as few ways. Meals can be as little as $5 or per person with the addition of rice.

Service is great !! Really nice people, the relax ambience the restaurant it's pretty popular,Food is amazing !! Only reason that I'm given 4 stars it's because on the scallops with bean sauce have a lot of seasoning making the sauce really salty but great dish , we love it !!! To be our first time , we are coming back to try lobster and crab

Poor service the food they gave was cold and slightly raw the waiter was rude and the food took almost a hour to come out and the kitchen is very dirty and right next to the guy restroom is also very dirty I don't understand how this place is still in business. I will never be coming here again full house seafood restaurant you lost a couple of customers today that will never be coming back

This was the best Chinese seafood I have had to date. I love the revolving table which allowed everyone to get to whatever dish they choose. We were there celebrating a birthday and we ordered plenty of food. We had the fried sole, walnut shrimp, zucchini, water spinach, shrimp fried rice, fried pork chops, calamari, pot stickers and beef stir fry. The peanuts, tea and chili oil was perfect. We thought we had too much food however, we finished all of it. Everything was scrumptious, fresh and came out hot and very flavorful. This is definitely in our go to list.

They gave ma a fake 20.00 change . That was the only place i went and got change , I called and of course the cashier wouldnt admit anything .

This place never disappoints! My family has been coming here for over a decade and the food /prices /service is consistently great. We came here for NYE dinner, were seated right away and had all our favorite dishes with no price gauging because it was a holiday. We tried this lobster this time in the black bean sauce, it is definitely a new favorite . My top favs are the sizzling rice soup, tangerine chicken, chow fun, and honey walnut prawns

I just want to preface that I've been coming here for years. We enjoy their lunch special but today was an off day. We ordered the Chinese broccoli with oyster sauce, pan fried chow mein, chicken fried rice, and chicken with black bean sauce. Today we found maggots in our chow mein and our Chinese broccoli. It was very off putting and normally I'm not one to complain but it was concerning to wonder why there is maggots in their kitchen. When told about the maggots not much was done. The waitress said it's because it's "organic" lol.

INCREDIBLE FOOD!! The fried rice is some of the most authentic and tasty. Their service is awesome and fast. Whats not to love? Love this place.

Old school since 1981. After the Dodgers game we stopped by for a late dinner at this restaurant, there are so many to choose from in the area. We ordered the Beef Turnip in clay pot and spicy Kung Pao Chicken with a two person serving of steamed rice. The food was very good and we enjoyed the meal in this tired but brightly lit restaurant. We had two waiters and they were both great and efficient.

I had been introduced to Full House during the early 1980s by a friend of the family. Whenever we visit Los Angeles Chinatown, we try to make it to Full House. The reason for our latest visit was the annual Lunar New Year Parade. We decided to have a post-parade meal before heading home. We ordered the braised beef stew with turnip clay pot and fish filet and vegetable. The beef stew was superb. It included tender pieces of beef brisket and tendon, just the way my grandmother cooked it. The fish filet dish was made up of pieces of sauteed white fish on top of Chinese broccoli, drizzled with a chicken broth based gravy. Another patron saw us enjoying the beef stew. He was definitely attracted by its aroma, so he asked what it was. I pointed it out in the menu, and he was grateful for the advice. The next time you're in LA Chinatown, pay a visit to Full House Seafood. You will not be disappointed!

My review is only for the food. I've never dined in, but I've ordered through Uber Eats several times. This is a solid Chinese restaurant serving solid Chinese food. That's why I keep ordering from them. I'm hesitant to try new places only to end up disappointed. What's good: dry-style beef chow fun, fish in corn soup, Kung pao chicken, fish in black bean sauce, baked pork chop, braised Yee mein, and French style filet mignon. I've noticed the portion size decreased, which is disappointing considering they raise the prices on the Uber Eats menu. On Yelp they're two $$, but on Uber Eats they're four $$$$. If I could offer some suggestions for them, it would be to take out the peas in the king pao chicken. I'm glad it has peanuts, but I think the peas need to go.

Full House is my go-to spot whenever I'm looking for a place to eat late at night. It is one of the few sit-down restaurants in LA still open at midnight and there always seems to be customers at every time of the day here. I always order the Westlake Beef Soup for the table and it's so heartwarming and delicious. I also love any of their veggie dishes (string beans, chinese broccoli) and noodles (chicken chow mein and beef chow fun). For meat dishes, I've had their sweet and sour pork, roast pork, and beef with pea pods. The flavors of all of these dishes are fantastic, but the sweet and sour pork is so good- especially when you pour the sauce over steamed rice. Also, they give you fortune cookies and sliced oranges at the end of every meal which is so sweet of them. Overall, Full House never fails to provide excellent food and great service.
