Top Pan Asian Restaurant in Seal Beach
Pick Up Stix Fresh Asian Flavors
12430 Seal Beach Blvd Suite A, Seal Beach, CA 90740, United States
We picked up dinner here last night and we will never go back again. I ordered chicken with broccoli. My companion ordered chicken with vegetables. There were at least 5 people behind the counter and the kitchen seemed very busy. Mostly orders called in for pick-up, I suspect, because there werent that many of us waiting in their dining room. We waited almost 1/2 an hour. Ok. They were busy.When we finally got our food, we paid them and left a tip. And that was the best part of our dinner. Instead of receiving my chicken and broccoli, I too was served chicken with vegetables. So both orders should have been the same, right? Wrong. My companions meal was swimming in soy sauce, and besides the fact that her boneless chicken had bones in it, it was tough as nails and inedible. We ended up throwing it away and I made her a couple eggs. My chicken dish had no soy sauce and the chicken was prepared differently. It was tough and very chewy but at least it was edible. I called the restaurant to tell them what happened. Their phone rang 22 times before someone answered and I was immediately put on hold for over 9 minutes. I finally hung up.Terrible food, terrible customer service. Dont go here.

Spaghettini

After deciding to go somewhere else for our anniversary dinner that had a 1 hour wait, we drove down the street a bit farther and agreed on Spaghettini. It has been over 25 years since we have eaten here, and its right down the street!We were greeted by a cheerful gal that took our names and told us it would be a 5-10 minute wait. Perfect! We went to the bar a grabbed a drink. Lets just say they were fabulous. I started with a Lemon Drop Martini and the hubs got a Moscow Mule. They were a bit pricey but hey, its our 20+1 Anniversary (I needed a 20th do-over since we were locked down last year).We were seated outside on a makeshift patio that I have to say they did a tremendous job on. Who would have thought we were going to make outside dining available in parking lots and where ever else they can cram them into. It was beautifully decorated with heaters, lights, plants, flowers. Just nicely done.We started with the Ahi tower. It was to die for! Make sure you add avocado because I think it made it even better. The mustard aiolo and the toasted baguette were yummy.It was time for another cocktail so I switched it up to the Sitting Pretty (sticking with Vodka). I LOVED it. It was like the Lemon Drop but with a hint of sweetness instead of the sour. Hubby got a Porcupine. It was really spicy! Serrano infused tequila, lime, citrus agave with basil and cucumber. He loved it!Ok, time for the meal. I decided to go big with the seafood pasta. I was afraid it might be too much seafood but it was delicious. I devoured every last bite like it was my last meal!Hubby ordered the tomahawk cider brined pork chop. I am not one to order pork chops but I had a bite and need to consider changing my orders up a bit. It was super juicy and cooked to perfect. The potatoes were amazing and forget about the broccoli because god forbid he eat a green vegetable.Sorry but there was no room for dessert but we enjoyed a fabulous 21st anniversary dinner. They also had a band starting at 7pm. parking was $7 for valet but we found plenty of room to park ourselves. We will definitely return, sooner than 25 years from now!Thanks for the great experience, excellent customer service and fabulous ambiance.
Sushi Ryokan
1013 Pacific Coast Hwy, Seal Beach, CA 90740, United States
We arrived here at approximately 230pm on a Thursday afternoon. It was not too busy and we were seated right away.We were able to make their happy hour and enjoyed reduced pricing on a generous happy hour menu.Or meal started with their seasoned edamame. It was DELICIOUS! Ive had other seasoned edamame that I thought was good, but this one was even better and with a nice kick. Yum!We enjoyed it with sake and a beer.We tried different sushi rolls. All delicious and fairly priced.I would have liked a little more attentiveness. It took a bit of time to get the ginger and wasabi for our meal. They didnt bring it at the beginning as normal. And it also took us a bit to get our check. However since it was my first time, for all I know it could have just been an off day for them. Even with that, when they were serving us, they were nice and not rude so, I still give them high stars.Oh!! And if youre celebrating a birthday, they turn on the disco lights and sing happy birthday. It wasnt ours, but you can bet we sang along!! How fun!!!Honestly, the service wasnt a deal breaker. Id still go back again for the food and the happy hour pricing. I trust the service will be great the next time.
