My friend recommended this place several years ago. I'm glad it survived the pandemic and that I was finally able to try the food and service.

While waiting in the seating area, one of the guests, a frequent diner, recommended the fried shrimp. It was a very good recommendation.

The 2 of us oredered 5 dishes so we could a little of each and take home the rest.  The first dish was the fried shrimp. It had a unique Cajun flavor. It was more like a prawns. Very hot and tasty with a little spice and bite. Itd be perfect with a beer.  But the shells were tough and not completely edible. It was excellent, but Bistro Na still has the best fried shrimp in the land. Better than famous Thai Garlic Shrimp dishes of Portland or Vegas (see my other reviews.)

Our 2nd dish was the fried and salty pork chop.  Hmm, it's exactly the same Cajun spice as the fried shrimp.  We should've ordered the honey garlic pork chop instead. Our mistake.

Next came the clams.  I really enjoyed the nice black bean sauce. Not too much black beans iverpowering the sweet clams.  Perfect with steamed rice. My other favorite clam dish is from Boston Lobster. Their basil clams dish is also excellent. It's a tie.

Beef chowfun was the next dish. Also excellent. They use the same noodles used for most pad Thai noodle dishes. The noodles were infused with a nice smokey, charred, grilled wok flavor. The beef was nice and tender. Our other favorite for beef chow fun, with the same smokey flavor is Arcadia Garden Cafe'.  My wife judges Chinese restaurants and their chef's by how good their beef chowfuns are prepared and taste. This easily passed.

Lastly was the beef with Chinese greens. Wow, this simple dish came out super tasty. It exceeded my expectations. Again, it's the rich tasty sauce that pairs well with good ol' streamed rice. The beef was tender and the greens were fresh and tasty.

Next time,.with more family/friends, we'll try the House Special Vietnamese Lobster. The MP was $29per pound and all they had were 3 lbs lobsters. That was too much for the 2 of us.  We'll update our review next time we come back. It'll be dungeness crab season in a couple weeks. We'll review the other seafood dishes too next time.

We lived by a near AirBnB just across the street to Henry's. We saw a line up almost every day at night, and the parking lot was packed just for this restaurant alone.

One our last day, we decided to order their lobster for a try, and this was the best decisions made!

The lobster was super fresh, bouncy, juicy, and just super delicious! We tried their house special for the seasoning and cooking. Absolutely a wonderful taste experience!

We ordered as take out, and heated the lobster the next morning. It still tasted amazing!

Wish we had more time to try other dishes.

One of the best Chinese restaurants in town. I know there are hundreds in the area, as a SoCal native, I’ve sampled many of these restaurants but this one really stands out from the rest.

The lobster w glass noodles is a MUST ORDER. We also enjoyed the curry beef stew, salted pig feet, and the Vietnamese styled fried fish. All were excellent.

Authentic Cantonese food. I enjoyed the food. The service is meh but what can you expect from an authentic Chinese restaurant. All the dishes were good but we didn't get the lobster because it was too expensive for just 4 of us. Overall I would come back again!
