Amazing Chinese food and great service! Finding a great Chinese restaurant in Long Beach is such a find. I've been twice and the dishes are tasty and fresh, service is great and it's a nice ambiance. Even the kids like it. I can't say enough about finding very good Chinese food in the neighborhood. If you like Chinese go ASAP!!

Went here for lunch on. Wednesday. The jalapeño chicken was PHENOMENAL! The chicken was chicken breast and so moist and flavorful. The dish bursts with flavor. Have enough for 3 meals. You get a lot for your money, a bit on higher price but so worth it. Took home a chicken fried rice and that too is superb! I will definitely be back! Well done EA!

A friend and I visited EA earlier this week and had a fantastic lunch. We ordered a variety of dim sum options and main dishes, all of which were fantastic and delicious. I had not had dim sum in a really long time so I was looking forward to this visit, and I left quite happy with a bag full of leftovers to enjoy for dinner. The honey walnut shrimp and pan fried clams with ginger and green onion dishes were among my faves, along with the BBQ pork bun and shrimp dumpling dim sum picks. Our waitress was lovely and gave great service and we had our own little corner to ourselves and to catch up with each other. Highly recommended and will come back again for sure!

This was a spot my girlfriend found on Instagram. It's within the confines of California Heights in North Long Beach sitting on the corner of a strip mall. You would never suspect that this place could push out some terrific dishes, but they certainly do. You walk in through the door and it looks like a Japanese spot (which is what it used to be). However, the dining experience was a fantastic outlook. My lady chose to have dim sum and chose shrimp dumplings, shrimp and pork shu mai, shrimp rice noodle balls, deep-fried mochi dumplings with pork and baked BBQ pork buns. I decided to try beef chow mein and vegetable fried rice. The rice didn't have a lot of bright color but there was an immense amount of flavor in each spoonful. The chow mein was good but now I want to see if their chicken is better. The ambiance was nice but the repeating music got a bit much. It wont stop me from making more visits to this busy restaurant, even on a Friday morning.

Now serving Dim Sum during lunchtime, EA Seafood has elegant dining areas, very different than most Chinese restaurants in Long Beach. We came during that slow time between lunch and dinner (where some restaurants just close, but EA was open). We were in the area to run an errand, and came explicitly here to dine. The outside isn't much to look at...don't really see anybody driving by to stop in on a whim. Prices are on the high side for Chinese food in LBC, but the ambiance and portion sizes seem to justify it. They no longer seem to have a lunch menu, and since we had eaten an early lunch already, I just wanted to stop in to sample. Thus, we ordered a couple of classics that weren't too expensive. Minced chicken lettuce wraps ($11.95) - these are made for you (4 of them) vs the other style of letting the diner create them. This resulted in the the lettuce cups being generously filled with the chicken mix (diced chicken, water chestnuts). It also had quite a bit of mushroom which I really liked (my wife is not a fan, so ended up eating 3 of them by myself). It comes with hoisin sauce. Seafood Pan Fried Noodle ($16.95) - the description says it comes in a brown sauce, but this was a white sauce, so the dish tasted delicate. I don't think there is a consistent view of what 'pan-fried noodles' mean. This version meant that the crunchy thin noodles were placed in the middle, and the seafood/vegetable mixture was placed around it. It was then up to you to determine how you wanted to eat it. We enjoyed this dish and it came with a good amount of quality seafood (shrimp, squid, whitefish). I really like chinese broccoli, and there was plenty of that. Service was ok throughout. Like mentioned before, the inside dining area is really nice...reminds me more of a Japanese restaurant (even had an empty area in the back that reminds me of a sushi bar serving omakase). After reading about this restaurant online (where they indicate they still have a lunch menu), we really want to try their dim sum menu (which is only served until 3 pm). It's clear that the chef knows what he/she is doing, and many of the other dishes on the menu would be something we would want to try next time (along with the dim sum).

We literally circled the area looking for EA Seafood, not realizing the Japanese resteraunt with the former name still up was now EA Seafood. I'm guessing the banner flew off. We walked in to check, and the menus at the entrance confirmed it was indeed EA Seafood. You'll immediately notice that the inside decor still has remnants of a Japanese restaurant. We were welcomed in and realized that we made it just in time for the lunch specials, which ends at 3pm. From the lunch special menu, we ordered the Kung Pao Chicken, which came with egg drop or sweet and sour soup, an egg roll, and a small bowl of rice. We also tried the Honey Walnut Shrimp, not on the lunch special menu, and Combination Fried Rice. Overall, your best value is the lunch specials. Everything was good, but I found the food to be a bit bland. I'll come back to try more of the menu.

DELICIOUS Cantonese food, coming from someone who just visited Hong Kong. We got the Singapore vermicelli and kung pao chicken. 1. Singapore noodles 8.5/10- has a great bouncy noodle texture that most Singapore noodles lack. It has a strong curry flavor which I love, and the shrimps were surprisingly succulent. Usually shrimps in Singapore noodles are dry and overcooked, but these were well done! 2. Kung Pao Chicken 10/10- BEST KUNG PAO CHICKEN!! The chicken was super tender and the sauce was amazing. The only critique is that I wish there were more peanuts but I won't dock a point because it's just that yummy! Friendly staff and a peaceful ambiance. They've got zen music playing and I felt like I was at a meditation class. The decoration and furniture was very Japanese inspired, but I think they took over after a Japanese restaurant closed. I highly recommend, and I'm so excited for them to add dim sum to their menu soon!

I had heard that a new Chinese restaurant opened up in Long Beach, so I decided to come check it out when meeting a former coworker for lunch. There is a dedicated parking lot which was not too full for lunch on a Wednesday, which made parking easy. The interior is beautiful and reflects decor of a former Japanese restaurant. Service was good though occasionally it would take some effort to flag someone down (we were not proactively checked on as regularly though when we got the servers' attention they would come to refill soup bowls or water without asking). I did hear some workers conversing in Cantonese. The menu is large and while it has all the Americanized stuff there was a decent offering of more authentic Chinese dishes as well. We ended up ordering primarily off of the regular/dinner menu, which while a little pricier comes as very large generous portions. We enjoyed the sauteed snow pea sprouts, clams with green onions and ginger, and black pepper beef dishes. My coworker ordered a large egg drop soup and two spring rolls. The egg drop soup was nothing special, though I did ask for white pepper. The clams dish sauce was a bit too thick/starchy for my tastes, but was otherwise tasty. There was a separate charge for steamed rice, $2.25 per large-ish rice bowl. While this charge does happen even in many Chinese restaurants, I always feel just a tad annoyed when rice doesn't outright come with the meal (though I suspect rice does come with the lunch specials). The lunch specials menu offered cheaper and smaller portions of several dishes, likely accompanied by rice and a small bowl of soup. Many restaurant patrons looked like they were working and came in to have a quick business lunch. Overall, food was not bad and service was solid. Prices were also fair and portions large (for regular/dinner menu items). I would definitely consider coming back to try more off of their menu!
