Seafood King Restaurant
Reviews
If you arrive from remuera road go through the mall, take a right into the exit stairwell, go down a floor, along the corridor, outside then around to the left through the main door. Delicious food but hard to find from the address!
The restaurant has changed name and owners – basically a new restaurant – earlier in 2013. It's now called the Seafood King Chinese Restaurant. The owner is also a big supplier of crayfish and other seafood to many other Chinese restaurants in the city, and he said that they were all fresh every morning (and they looked it). Whereas the old restaurant may have slipped in quality, the new one is so much better. At Sunday lunch the large restaurant (seats 250, quite a surprise) was bustling, with a mainly (but not 100%) Asian clientele. It was very clean and fresh, with pristine tablecloths, and even the chairs were shiny. There is a window into the kitchen which looked clean and busy. When I and some friends had Yum Char at Monday lunch, the dishes were delicious and very authentic Cantonese. We could easily have been in Hong Kong. The waiting staff struggled a bit with English, but that was the only negative in an otherwise great dining experience.
