Reviews for Orient Restaurant in Seaside, CA

I'm a regular to this restaurant because their food is always good

A multi-cultural Asian menu with limited options for each cuisine. For example, one kind of beef pho. Which makes it great for... people who has a hard time deciding. Quality of the food for the price is hard to beat. The food was simple but comforting ,tasted great and leave you wanting seconds. Kind of like going over to your favorite relative's house for dinner and they areone hell of a cook in the kitchen. Read more

We had BBQ chow main, mandarin chicken, spicy crisp pork, and broccoli in oyster sauce. All very nice. They still include free... rice with each order. Pricing is great for the area. Read more

I ordered 2 different soups ( sizzling rice and noodle ) yesterday. Both were over salted, smelled bad and most likely contained... MSG in high quantities. I developed allergic reaction ( MSG does that to me). They use the same broth for any soup you order.Will not come back. Read more

Was hopeful after reading the reviews, but I must say I am not a fan of the food. A star was given because every employee i had... an interaction with was pleasant. Mongolian beef was in a weird grey gravy and had no spice or flavor. It had an unusual smellas well Read more

Nice place to have a very good meal, quick service, tasty selections, limited parking, plenty of indoor tables, great prices.

This place is the best! Their lunch specials are freshly made, as well as all the other items on their lunch menu. I have to... wait 20 minutes for the food, because it's being cooked, not microwaved, like other places. Believe me, people come here fromall over the Peninsula, because it really has the best Chinese and Vietnamese food! Read more

I wouldn't return to this place. Bad service, long wait just to order while the place was practically empty, the sauce for my... broccoli beef wasn't flavorful and was watery, and I had to fight a knat from flying into my food. If there are knats in thedining area I can imagine how dirty the kitchen must be! Read more
