Sk Seafood Restaurant

The food is delicious. All my family members love this place. Please remember to make reservations ahead as this place is crowded during peak hours. Will be there again!

SK Seafood Restaurant is located in strip mall in Chinatown in Las Vegas, just about 4 miles away from the strip. We wanted to check out the Chinatown and this local favored Cantonese cuisine restaurant and we were not disappointed. To avoid peak hours and crowd, we arrived at the restaurant around 4:30pm (before the dinner crowd). Traditional Chinese restaurant decor with fish tank, round tables, etc. Most tables were set up for 4 people and a handful of larger tables for 8 people as well. We were seated immediately. We ordered: fish maw crab meat chowder, SK signature crispy squab, ginger and scallion Dungeness crab, garlic ribeye and stir fried string beans with Malay sauce. After we placed our order, waitstaff brought out a very lively crab in a plastic bucket to show us the crab picked out from the fish tank for us and to get our approval for the selection. Waitstaff told us when we ordered that live crab was $60 each and she promised to get us the biggest crab, and she did! We also tried to order the traditional clay pot rice dish but were told that this dish required an hour advanced reservation. The first dish served was the fish maw crab meat chowder and we were pleased that there were lots of ingredients in this hot, delicious soup to start our meal. The Dungeness crab was so fresh as the meat was firm and sweet. The crispy squab was a bit small but very tasty and came with a side dish of flavored dipping salt and spice. Every dish came out fast, hot and tasty. Dinner included free tea and white rice. Quick refills on rice and tea. Our whole group was extremely satisfied for a delicious dinner at SK Seafood Restaurant. This restaurant offers authentic Chinese food, extensive and diverse menu, masterful wok skills, fresh ingredients, well portioned dishes and reasonably priced food. It serves lunch specials between 11:00am - 4:30pm. Waitstaff was attentive and provided helpful suggestions. Plenty of parking are available in the plaza. When we are back in Las Vegas, we will definitely dine at this restaurant to try their other dishes as well as the dim sum dishes.

The restaurant is located in a small plaza with limited parking. They are understaffed so service is slow generally speaking. The food portion is generous, food does come out hot and quick right after you order. This is a good option if you want some Cantonese food that locals in Las Vegas go to. The lunch menu option provides lots of good options that are tasty and generous in portions that will for sure hit the spot while keeping your wallet fat.

Ok, if you're not Chinese and you walk in, you might feel out of place! 😂 This is where all the local ethic Chinese people eat, so you know it's good! 😋 I read about SK and thought we'd give it a try for lunch and boy their menu is a traditional and authentic selection of good ole Chinese food. The wait staff doesn't speak top much English bit you can order by menu numbers. We had 4 dishes (bitter melon with beef, curry brisket stew, old fashion beef chow fun and salty fish pork). Damn, they were all so tasty and the portions were large enough that we had leftovers for dinner and possibly a lunch, all for $60. I will be back for dinner and really try their seafood dinner menu items. Based upon the lunch experience, I setting the bar high for dinner! Go try this place. You will thank me!

Exactly what I expected and more. Fast and good portion for $14 dishes. Succulent roast duck almost perfectly cooked with robust flavor. One of the best roast duck I tasted in a long rime, even better than Hong Kong. Seafood hot pot was good, but a bit too salty for both of us. It lacked that flavor, but still good. String beans with minced pork was good, but again too salty and lacking just a bit of that flavor, but still good according to my standard. Overall, a very good place for a solid Chinese comfort food. Now as always, the service was awful and I repeatedly asked for Chilli sause, but never got it. At one point they just ignored me. At least, they didn't yell at me like some places. This is the nature of dining out at Chinese restaurants. It's their signature cultural distinction. Anyway, worth trying once.
