SEA Restaurant

"Delicious! We had papya salad, shrimp and pork spring rolls, crispy noodles, fried rice and pho. So good!"

"I use to go to Sea a lot but since I don’t work in the area anymore I haven’t been. We decided to stop in for lunch and so happy we did. Jenny is so nice and knowledgeable. She is the best! And the food was great as well! We ordered the beef pho, a rice dish with pork chops and a noodle dish."

"As a Vietnamese-American, I can say their pho is not good. When it comes to pho, broth is KEY. The broth here had a weird, unclean taste. It just wasn’t good. I think it might be because of the meat. The meat wasn’t 100% clean, and by that I mean - after it cooked in the water, there was still remnants of dirty foam (if that makes any sense lol) still floating in the broth. It’s to be expected and normal when you’re cooking meat like that, but it then needs to be scooped out of the broth to be clear and “clean” tasting. I cook pho at home often and have to do that a lot. I’d give the pho a 2.5/5. Saigon Pho on Lyell is better. The garnish dish is very disappointing compared to your typical Vietnamese restaurant serving pho. One stem of basil leaves? It was hardly anything. Basil is a very important garnish with pho, and they cheaped out. Also, one tiny lime isn’t enough, and there was one minuscule cup for the dipping sauces (hoisin and sriracha). Also, where are the jalapeños? The restaurant has Vietnamese items on the menu, which is great and I love that, but the sandwich is not correctly spelled. A for effort and including that item, but please spell it correctly. It’s “banh mi”, not “bahn” I like the service and vibe here; the ladies were attentive and incredibly friendly. The place is decent, I just wish the pho was better. I couldn’t even eat half of the bowl. I was craving pho today, too, but after several bites of the mediocre broth, I had to throw in the towel. The price of the pho was definitely fair."

"The place is nice and the food is okay. Inside is clean and staff are friendly. The green curry was just a watery broth and not very good, but it had a big portion. I was expecting a thicker, creamy curry like at other places so was pretty surprised at the soupy broth. The spring rolls were pretty bland, and just so so (only shrimp, noodles, and lettuce - no mint or cucumber or any other greens). The pho was pretty okay, probably the better of the dishes we tried."

"Fantastic place for some fresh and delicious Thai! Bubble tea - fantastic. Egg rolls - very unusual but liked them! Fried rice - super delicious. The star of the show - crispy fried noodles with beef. WOW, such crispy noodles that absorbed the sauce at the bottom when you were ready for it and became even more amazing. The SAUCE, a very thin broth, had a very rich flavor. Great mix of fresh sautéed veggies and the beef was delicious as well. Would happily return!"
