East Ocean Seafood Restaurant

Hey this is a mini version of East Ocean from Alameda. The truth is this mini do not offer much choices as the one in Alameda. Majority I would say ok. The quality of dimsum i ordered was kind of below average, not sure which parts were wrong? If you haven't been to both location, I definitely recommend you go to the one in Alameda first. One thing about parking in the walnut creek location, even it has parking lot, but it is bit hard to get a spot for parking.

I never knew this place is now East Ocean and if it was related to the famous Dim Sum place but the food was definitely in that higher level. Pea shoots were fresh and tender, both sweet and sour and mushu pork were authentic. Mushu pork even had wood ear mushrooms, which many places had abandoned due to cost and time. The waitress was kind and patient. She even gave us a small complimentary order of xiao long baos. My two grown sons were very happy with the dinner. Will definitely visit again.

Came here for dim sum for lunch. It was meh. Alot of msg. The keystone to test it all is the ha gaw and the wrap was very thick, filling was also ok. Nothing special. However the star of our order was the amazing bok choy with garlic. It was perfectly cooked and a bright green. It was also cut in a way that highlights the vegetable. It really was spectacular. We also got the bok choy in oyster sauce, which was still good. Got chow mein... Was meh... Alot of thick noodles, not enough shrimp. I would go back for that bok choy...it was that good. I hope our experience is not a one off, and only because whoever cooked it that day just was able to channel the food gods.

Thanks to the authentic selections chosen by my wonderful wife, I can confidently give this place a solid four stars. While the food was fantastic, a few design improvements could elevate the overall experience even further. I highly recommend trying the Beef Dry Chow Fun ($19.95)—a flavorful mix of tender beef and perfectly cooked noodles. Be sure to pair it with their authentic hot sauce, conveniently available at every table, for an extra kick. For a well-balanced meal, add the Special Pea Sprouts ($21.95) as a fresh and delicious veggie side. And don’t miss the Salt & Pepper Calamari ($10.95)—crispy on the outside, yet juicy and tender on the inside, making it a standout appetizer. To complete the experience, enjoy the complimentary tea, which adds a warm and comforting touch to an a

Always enjoy a trip to East Ocean, the food is so fresh and well prepared. Generous portions and attentive friendly service. Especially recommend seafood options: Salt and Pepper calamari and seafood chow mein are what always bring us back, plus the dim sum, which you can get at dinner; love the shrimp and chive dumplings! Vegetarian options are plentiful and the broccoli is just gorgeous on its own. I recommend dining in as most of the dishes are best enjoyed hot from the kitchen. Parking is plentiful and free. Four star on atmosphere as the music was a touch loud last visit.. small thing.
