"With a truly extensive menu of Vietnamese-inspired dishes that change with the seasons, Hai Cang is a true landmark for Houston’s seafood lovers. Try clams in sate sauce, deep-fried oysters, or yee mein with crab meat, and keep an eye out for seasonal favorites like geoduck sashimi and curry-sauced crabs." - Brittany Britto Garley
"Any restaurant with tables blanketed in a thick layer of plastic secured by a giant lazy susan means business. Hai Cang Harbor Seafood Restaurant, a Vietnamese-Chinese seafood restaurant in Chinatown, is one of those places. Those lazy susans fill with platters piled high with wok-fried lobster tails thickly coated in dry spices and garlic, and mounds of fried rice crowned with entire fire-red Dungeness crab speckled with glistening roe. The restaurant is built for groups, celebrations, and anyone hosting their own informal seafood eating contest." - gianni greene, chelsea thomas
"It would appear that the entire purpose of Chinatown restaurant Hai Cang, other than serving seafood platters so massive that it would make a merperson blush, is catering to groups. Equipped with massive lazy-susan-topped round tables that seat at least 10, Hai Cang can pack in a group of nearly any size and appetite. Load up on pounds of dry-fried lobster, giant Dungeness crab smothered in sticky sauce, and fried rice glistening with crab roe with a giant group of friends who like to eat." - gianni greene, chelsea thomas, julie takahashi
"Hai Cang, a Vietnamese-Chinese seafood restaurant in Chinatown, loads you up with spicy and tangy seafood by the truckload. The massive crab, lobster, and noodles platters are perfect for a big group dinner or perhaps an informal seafood-eating contest. Get particularly wild with pounds of lobster wok-fried in savory dry spices and a fire-red Dungeness crab carcass for fried rice, soft scrambled eggs, and juicy shrimp. Roll as deep as possible to Hai Cang and give the table’s lazy susan an extra spin for good luck." - chelsea thomas, gianni greene, julie takahashi
"Choosing Hai Cang in Chinatown for a birthday celebration lets people know two very important things about you. One, you really, really like to eat (a lot of) seafood. Two, you probably have, like, a lot of friends. Hai Cang’s massive menu, lazy-susan-ready tables, and wall of fresh seafood tanks are there to crush you with incredible food. Get pounds of Dungeness crab dressed in sticky tamarind sauce, dry-fried lobster, and platters of noodles and rice. Bring at least 10 people—you will need their stomachs—and revel in knowing that you are both full of great food and very popular on your birthday." - gianni greene, chelsea thomas, julie takahashi
