" Powell's Seafood brought back memories from my childhood! The salt and pepper shrimp were crunchier than I remembered, and the portions are huge, perfect for sharing. I loved the family-style atmosphere, although it did get quite busy at times. My only criticism would be that the staff seemed a bit rushed, but the food quality more than compensates for it. I'm planning on bringing my family next time! " (*Curated Review*)

" Had lunch here recently and while the food was affordable, I wouldn't say it stood out in taste. My shrimp dish lacked any real seasoning. I will say our server was attentive, which was a pleasant surprise given the restaurant's busyness. I just think better flavors would really elevate this restaurant. If you're in the area definitely give it a try, but keep your expectations reasonable. " (*Curated Review*)

" The food was flavorful but lacked authenticity in some areas. I ordered the Mongolian beef, which I found a bit overly sweet compared to what I’m used to. My partner enjoyed the crispy chicken, which was lovely, but we felt the service could use improvement. We waited quite a while for our drinks to arrive and had to remind the staff twice. It's a decent place if you're looking for a quick meal, but I think there are better options for authentic Chinese cuisine in the area. " (*Curated Review*)

" My family and I tried Powell’s Seafood Restaurant last Saturday and it was an overall delightful experience. The service was quick, and our food arrived steaming hot. I particularly loved the salt and pepper squid, which was crispy and packed with flavor. It reminded me so much of the classic dishes my grandmother used to make. The portions were generous, indeed even for the fried rice, which could easily feed two. We also ordered the pork dumplings and they did not disappoint either. Although the ambiance was quite casual, the food speaks for itself. Would definitely recommend to anyone looking for excellent Chinese food. " (*Curated Review*)

" I have mixed feelings about my visit to Powell's Seafood. On one hand, the food was tasty. I particularly liked the salt and pepper squid! However, the service was confusing. My family's orders were all mixed up and we had to flag down staff multiple times. The portions are generous, and the prices are reasonable for the quality of food. I might give it another try, but hoping for smoother service next time! " (*Curated Review*)

" I brought my family here for dinner after a friend recommended it. Let's just say the food was nothing short of extraordinary! The portions were hefty; we could have easily shared between two people. The food had vibrant flavors with a clear reminder of authentic Cantonese cuisine. The staff was friendly and attentive, making sure we had everything we needed. I left feeling satisfied and couldn’t stop raving about the honey garlic spareribs. Highly recommended for anyone craving genuine Chinese food! " (*Curated Review*)

" Powell's is a staple for good reason! The atmosphere is bustling yet welcoming, the food is packed with flavor and authenticity. I loved their salt and pepper dishes—they're just perfect! Portions are so generous that we struggled to finish our meals even as a group. If you're seeking traditional Chinese cuisine in Portland, you really can’t go wrong with Powell's Seafood.
