Fifty One

Surprisingly authentic and tasty for this area! I didn't have high expectations, but Fifty One far exceeded it. Out of everything we ordered, I highly recommend the Cantonese BBQ Platter & Stir Fry String Beans. The portions are generous and can easily feed 3-4. We also ordered the Hong Kong Ribs & Chicken Lettuce Wrap, but it was mediocre; I would not recommend these two dishes. The ambiance is pretty cool for a nice casual dinner. Service is good, but nothing to rave about. Expect to pay $30-35 per person and have leftover to take home. I would be returning!

I went there since the reviews said its good, but I was so disappointed. This restaurant gave me a disgusting half-cooked steamed pork, and then 30 minutes after I just reported it to them, they gave me another half-cooked egg custard mun. The service attitude is also horrible, I asked an Asian waiter about my orders since I had already waited for twenty minutes without anything recieved, then he just shaked his shoulders and gave me a non-sense gesture. I dont know how to describe the gesture, but it make me mad under the circumstance. I will never go there again.

Best Chinese restaurant in Culver City! Loved the half off dim sums on Sundays! Their chicken Xiu Mai and dumplings are really good! We have also tried the Mixed Fried Rice and the Kung Pao Chicken (in the pics) and both of them were tasty. They have Chinese beers too! The wait times are a bit high but I can understand because of the less staff members. Keep up the good work, Fifty One! Me and my wife will visit again!
