🙂 4/5 - Surprisingly good food. Prices weren't too bad.

On Saturday, April 22nd, my wife and I entered this restaurant for the first time. We were there to discuss business, and relive great memories with friends.
As soon as we pulled up, someone was begging for change right at the front door of the restaurant. This was a new person begging for change, as usually the same people beg for change up and down Tualatin Valley Highway. We gave him some change, and promised to return with some food for him when we were done with our meal. We always like to help people out, if they are really in need.
Entering the place, I wasn't sure what to expect. This building has changed hands many time over the decades. My sister and all of my cousins worked there for years back when it was a Sea Galley Restaurant. Later, they continued working there when it turned into The Keg Restaurant. After that, it was Cooper Mountain Grill, and even more recently, it was The Spot for a short time. Then, it was empty. It's a very large building, and some of the previous incarnations used the size to their advantage. I was surprised, then, when I entered the building this time, and found that East Harbor doesn't appear to be overly large inside, for some reason. I recognized the floor plan, of course, but it's nothing like it used to be. For starters, it's a lot brighter in there now than it was back when it was Sea Galley or The Keg. That's not a bad thing, as the overall setting of the those two were on the darker side.
So, we sat down, and immediately discovered the language barrier that I've seen reported previously about the place. It's there, and it could cause something of a struggle for some patrons in the ordering. This time, it wasn't that much of a problem. The waiters and waitresses are patient, and will stick around until they are pretty sure they have the right order in mind for what you want.
Speaking of the right order, the menu is fairly impressive, featuring many dishes I've never heard of, or imagined anyone would want to eat. The term "Authentic" springs to mind, instantly, upon viewing the pages and pages of items on the menu that I'd never try, myself. Jellyfish spaghetti sounds absolutely frightening, but it's in there, and the photo that accompanies it gives me the impression that the spaghetti noodles on it are arms from the jellyfish, itself.
There are pictures for every dish, so you have a good idea what you are getting. The photo for the Egg Flower Soup and the Fish and Corn Soup are the same photo. Also, there are several instances where things are misspelled on the menu, and I've seen this in other Chinese Restaurants, too, so it's no big deal. The misspellings weren't enough to confuse me on what it was supposed to be.
The food came out quickly, and I was very surprised by how good it was. I ordered the Egg Flower Soup, and it had a lot of corn in it, which is ok. It made me wonder though if it was the right order, since the menu showed the same picture for this and the fish and corn soup.
The beef fried rice I ordered was very tasteful, which I appreciated. I also ordered egg rolls, which turned out to be spring rolls, but were still good.
My wife ordered a Beef Noodle thing that she really liked. I thought it was passable, but slightly bland.
One of my friends ordered the Orange Chicken. My son orders Orange Chicken at every Chinese Restaurant he goes to, so I purposely avoided it on the menu, just because it almost always tastes the same everywhere, and no longer does it for me in terms of satisfaction. At East Harbor, though, I'm going to have to remember that this isn't the case, because the Orange Chicken here is different, very tasteful, surprisingly so, in fact, and left me wishing I'd ordered that, instead of the egg rolls.
The size of the orders is also pretty good. The cup of soup I received was larger than any other Chinese Restaurant soup cup size in the area, for sure. It seemed to be, anyway. The dishes that we ordered, since it was a Saturday, were all of the dinner menu, since they didn't do lunch on the weekends. Each order took up an entire plate, and were sizeable enough for sharing, which we did. The prices on the dishes weren't too terribly bad, either.
I will come back to this location, in time, I'm sure. I'm a lot more positive I'll return to the East Harbor than I ever wanted to return to Cooper Mountain Grill. I never even went into the place when it was called The Spot. This newest incarnation of the old Sea Galley building is a good one, and if you're looking for Authentic Chinese dishes, you'll find them here.
