I have only tried Capitol Seafood-and I was not too thrilled(although I love their Arcadia Branch) http://www.yelp.com/biz/capital-seafood-irvine

The Oc has some great Korean/Vietnamese/Japanese places-not so much for Chinese.

Going to try Mama Lu's for the first time(after living in the SGV for 16 years)today!

(9/9)follow up... Very authentic divey place with indifferent service. Food heavily laced with MSG and very oily. Dumplings ok-not great.Best to eat while hot because they are very tough once they cool down. I don't think I will return.
