Ah, yes, the classic Chinese lunch specials. If you’re unfamiliar with “lunch specials” you’re really missing out: soup, Rice, and an entrée at a rock bottom price. If you are spending more than $7 per entrée, you’re really getting ripped off.

Newport seafood is the quintessential lunch special spot; solid and authentic food for about $5 a head. We don’t question the quality of the meat or whether the vegetables are laced with pesticides. This is Chinese food, we go here to be merry and eat tasty food.

The prices range from 3.95, 4.95 and if you really want to splurge, 5.95 for seafood dishes for your usual Chinese food. Menu is littered w/ your kung pao beef and clams in black bean sauce type dishes. Pictured are beef with Chinese broccoli and basil fish. Both dishes are authentic tasting, tasty, and well-executed.

I would come back. Dinner is pricier, about $10 for the same dish. I recommend the lunch specials. Their fried pork chops is especially good. Not really a seafood place, despite their name. Just a regular Chinese place you will be happy giving them $7 for a meal.
