The seafood guy by 1998 Cafe

Food is absolutely delicious. Deep fried oysters are crispy like I tried in Hong Kong. The best Hong Kong food I’ve ever had in the UK. Highly recommend

Loved this place. The menu offers a great selection of not only seafood but chicken, pork and beef. Some highlights were the takoyaki that was fairly authentic, the oysters were huge and definetly try the pork knuckle, it was delicious and sizeable, so worth sharing. However, needless to say, that although catering for vegetarians it's main focus is meat based dishes currently - so you might feel a bit restricted. Staff were also super friendly, it's a nice interior and it's great having the shop on the front with lots of small bit you might struggle to get elsewhere. I'll definetly be back to try more of the menu soon.

Had some of the best food I have ever eaten last night @theseafoodguyuk. I was a bit doubtful as there have been a lot of gushing comments on Insta about this place. But it lives up the hype... Phrases like hidden gem are overused... But this is the full treasure chest. Every dish was delicious and the portions are full plates not small plates, meaty ribs, fat scallops everything perfectly seasoned I love Sichuan spice and thus was up there with the best . It's definitely not just seafood either lots of chicken, beef and pork dishes . But the seafood is amazing, my mate and I agreed we are heading back very soon for the whole crab which we didn't have cos we wanted to try a few different dishes. Reports from other tables were that it was sensational. There are pictures on the menu so you know what to expect but they don't do the food justice. The food for the two of us 3 big dishes plus rice was less than 40. We had leftovers and are both big eaters. We got a decent bottle of wine to share which was reasonable too. They have some great meal deals on with mains, drink and rice for about 15 and cheaper at lunchtime. It's less than 10 minutes walk from Nottingham Station and you get beautiful views up to the Castle as you walk there. The staff are lovely and helpful if you are stuck on what to choose. Go there now.

The Seafood Guy - if you’re looking for authentic Hong Kong cuisine in the heart of Nottingham city centre look no further. With page and pages of dishes to choose from. They offer all the meats and a large selection of seafood dishes including crab, lobster and scallops. The restaurant had a real family feel and we were made to feel so welcome. They embrace the sharing culture and this was clear to see with the families around us all tucking in. A special shout out to Crystal, she was lovely and we especially enjoyed her stories from home and information on the restaurants background. When we left there wasn’t a spare seat in the house which is amazing for early doors on a midweek night and just shows how popular the restaurant is.

Visited on a Monday night so it was fairly quiet however dead nice food, very welcoming and hospitable. Definitely recommend the pb french toast, good sake collection as well. Not your usual Chinese/English style food. Definitely more authentic. Will be returning

The food are super nice and staffs are friendly too. The toast is my favourite, the peanut butter inside,the fried toast ,the whole thing is just perfect. The coating of the black pepper chicken is also really nice ,it's super crispy , it's just that the black pepper sauce is not strong enough imo. Other than that, the beef cheese baked rice is so flavourful and the beef is so tender. And I would really recommend getting the lunch set ,just need to add another 3 pounds for the red bean ice cream drink which I would recommend others to try.

Such a great experience we had here, started with a cocktail whilst being run through house recommendations, everything was amazing, oyster duck egg omlette was definitely a new one on us, deep fried but not greasy at all. Flaming chicken hot pot was something special, strawberry sweet and sour pork was alot better than your standard ss dishes from takeaways. And you must have the HK French Toast, don't be afraid to try something new. Service is impeccable, dishes explained very well with stories behind them.

I had a great meal at The Seafood Guy by 1998 Cafe in Nottingham. The beef vermicelli noodles were rich and brothy, packed with flavor. I also had spring rolls, gyoza, and wings—everything was fresh and delicious. They brought out French toast, which I thought was complimentary, but I later saw it on the bill. No complaints, though—it was absolutely worth it! The food was so good I forgot to take pictures. Definitely a spot I’d recommend for great Hong Kong-style food.
