“Had the 8oz filet. It was perfectly cooked. This is one of the few restaurants that the quality of their food has not gone down hill. And the service is always spot on. Keep up the good work guys!!”
“The food is amazing, the place is clean, and the staff was nice and polite. They have a 1 and a half hour time limit, so don't be surprised when they try to kick you out. A bit too loud with people talking and the music, but if you enjoy those environments, go ahead. I enjoyed it.Parking: They have a parking lot with room for many cars so enjoy.Kid-friendliness: I saw a few toddlers and they gave them a high seat so I think kids can go there.”
“It was my first of going there for lunch with my friends . There are variety of foods you can choose such as Hummus , eggplants , grilled kebab , pizza , grilled veggies and lots of salads . All of them fresh , flavorful and tasty . Highly ”
“As someone who loves to eat a lot of food, this place is great for others like me. The sushi was fresh and filling, the appetizers were flavorful, and the price was not too bad. Definitely come with friends for a great time!”
“Would leave 7 seven starts on service if possible. Nicolas was great, super friendly and attentive without being over bearing. Would ask for him again! Thanks so much. Buttercake4life.”

“Great little place for quality bites of sashimi!! Family owned for 18 years! Eat here when you crave mouthwatering, quality, coastal Japanese creations that satisfy!!”
“My wife and I needed a quick lunch fix, and the photos of kimbap caught our eye. The shopping center isn't much to look at, but the cafe is such a cute and charming place! We ordered a kimbap and a cup-bap, which appears to be their spin on a lunch plate with several sides. This is really a mom-and-pop shop in the best sense, like if your parents were cooking a cozy meal for you. They even sell instant ramen, and will prepare it and serve it up to you with a side of pickled radish. Wish I lived closer - we would definitely be back!Kid-friendliness: The cafe's atmosphere is very casual and family-friendly.”
“Hey Foodies ❤️ if you're looking for a place where Thai meets seafood in a bag, Nine Seafood Restaurant is where it's at. Best time to go before things really get jumping on a Saturday is about 4/4:30pm. After that you will blink and see half the place start to fill up. When I came in I was greeted, and ask to hang out for my table to be prepped. Just a few minutes and away we go. The customer service by far is a 10 double ++ for those of you who are not used to being tended too, asking if you need anything during your time at an eating establishment you are in for a treat. The host, server, etc were very sweet and sincere. To the food.....I'm sorry my tastebuds just had a flashback. Where do I start? The flavors were bold and complimented one another something fierce, I had a Brazilian Carnival going on in my mouth. We started with the Edamames with a cajun seasoning. I was stuck here a while, even when our food came i was still going through them. Next was the curry. The yellow curry was rich, smooth with chunky potato and big juicy shrimps. I poured this delectable treat over my seafood fried rice which sent me to another dimension of tastebud euphoria. The class, mussels, shrimp, crab was just mmmmm mmm. Finally we had the Pad See Ew Combo with flat noodles, Broccoli and egg yummy. I mixed this in with the yellow curry, can somebody give me a ride home because I feel a food coma coming. Absolutely loved every dish presented, this hidden gem is a golden nugget. I wish them much success, blessings and favor to the employees and management of this establishment in Jesus name for your work shall not be in vain. May your fruits continue to bear in and out of season.”

“loco moco=star of the show happy hawaiiaan = OK, spam was alright beignets= amazing, soft Jalapeno & cauliflower poppers=good crab cakes=Ok service= amazing!”
“Food is always excellent. I went in with a party of nine. So automatically your gratuity is included. Which in this case is all bad 20%. So he got a $63 tip and only came to the table twice because his tips guaranteed.”
“Second visit in a week.Hands down the best pho I have ever had. I believe that they use real bone broth (not the powder), so I can tase the umami, didn’t even have to put any garnish in the pho.Also, the fish sauce fry is a must try, can’t find it elsewhere.”
“Was craving Korean food and saw that this place was highly rated so decided to check it out. The beef bulgogi was so good, flavors were on point + the owners were really sweet!! Will def come back to try out all the other food. Inside was really nice and clean too!”
“My family and I love stopping by at this location for a meal whenever we in town visit my parents. I never get disappointed. Last night, 12/23/23, our meals were not prepared correctly. What impressed me is that they rectify it immediately without any negative attitudes. Compliments to the manager and staff at this location for continuously making my family’s and mine dining experience so enjoyable. Thank you.”
“Ive been to Gobi a few times now for a sweet treat after dinner and it never disappoints. The texture of rolled ice cream is different than your traditional scooped ice cream or soft serve, but I love it! It's also cool to be able to watch the workers make your order in front of you. The fruit bowl is my go-to here. I don't know how they do it but all the fruit they put on top is super fresh and delicious every time. Highly recommend this flavor. The workers and nice and there's a few seats inside. Love to support a small local business! 4 stars- will come back if I'm in the area”

“Came across this hidden gem while driving down from the valley! Great quality and flavored drinks and one of the best Matcha latte with brûlée and oreos. An absolute game-changer! They use ceremonial grade matcha straight from Japan. The earthy matcha flavor combined with their cream brûlée made it an unforgettable experience.Not to mention their service and attentiveness is top-notch.”
“This place was good!!! We tried it in passing and found everything we ordered to our liking! Coffee refills too! Small place but has outside dining. Friendly staff.”
“AH-MAZING! DELICIOUS! Pleasantly surprised. Can’t wait to go back. I went with 3 friends and we all loved it. What’s not to love with homemade tortillas, steak, cheese, guac and PERUVIAN BEANS!! So creamy and delish! MUST TRY! You won’t be disappointed.”

“This is the holy grail of oc mini malls: a class third wave coffee spot next door to a great local doughnut spot (goody's). Having an Americano from here with a goody's doughnut costs you like five bucks and is the most heavenly coffee/doughnut combo I've experienced in my whole entire life (and half a decade of active searching in all parts of California.Vegetarian options: YepDietary restrictions: CoffeeParking: Shopping center lot.Kid-friendliness: YesWheelchair accessibility: Yes”
“04.02.2024 - Anniversary breakfast for my Mom & Dad at @aloha.stacks I've been here before, but it was their first time here, and they enjoyed every bite! We had no leftovers to take home. From left right: *Iced Coffee *Ube Coconut Pancakes *Hamburger Patty Loco Moco *Kids Cheese Omelet with Fruit *Kalua Pork Omlette with Potatoes I must say, the Ube Coconut Pancakes were actually good and not overly sweet. They were pretty light and fluffy, too! I'd recommend it! You can't go wrong with Loco Moco. I couldn't quite decide what to eat so I went with a dish, I already know I'll like. They have different options of protein that you can choose from, too! My Dad said the Kalua Pork omlette was very filling. It was actually jammed pack with Kalua Pork. My daughter likes egg and cheese, so that was a win for her. I highly recommend this spot, especially if you're looking for that good hawaiian meal. Keep in mind, their hours of operation is only from 6:30 a.m.-2:00 p.m. There's a good amount of seating area inside, but it does get busy. The earlier, the better. Also, you order your food first at the counter and then find a table.”
“Awesome food!!! I mean delicious ?Everything is clean, the stuff(I think the owner) is super friendly. Five stars and recommended!Godzilla sandwich and the special soup with vegan duck and dumplings ??”
“Best cookies EVER!!! Haven't been to the store, but have used the online site for sending gifts. They're delivery service is spot on punctual! Fantastic company!!”
“I love sugar cane & I am very open to trying new places with new flavors.I was in the Cerritos Area having dinner with my little family. I came across this place called Vita Cane. My daughter & I wanted to try their drinks. This shop is new & it's located in a strip mall near the other food & drink places. It's near Sprouts if you have a difficult time finding it. Vita Cane services healthier alternatives for rehydration. I chose the Mojito Orange Bang & my daughter chose the Coco Melon. As I took a few sips of the Mojito Orange Bang, it tasted very similar to this fruit called Calamansi. The drink itself was sweet & a little sour, but very refreshing. I want to try their Lemon Berry Berry cane & the Fire Dragon. The staff were so sweet & friendly. The ambiance was very vibrant. There is a giant mural & bright LED signs inside the shop. Bathrooms are clean as well.”
“A good friend and I decided to have dinner here. I have to tell you, since the pandemic, I have slowly been going back to old favorites, and this is one of them. I really looked forward to trying this place again. Would it be the same? Would it be better, or worse? Well I have to say that they did not disappoint. I don't know if I missed coming here or if they just got that much better, but it was good!We definitely got there just in time because once we were seated, the place started getting very busy.The service was great in spite of how busy it got. George was our server and he was very helpful and accomidateing. Needless to say that what we ordered was outstanding.I definitely forgot how much I enjoyed this place. No question on whether or not I'm coming back because that's a big yes.Parking: Plenty of parking. No problem finding a spot.”
“Omg ? I love this place, we drive all the way from south LA just to enjoy this delicious food. My 5 year old daughter loves it. That means a lot coming from a kid. Worth every penny.”

“Awesome food and great service but can't say much for the atmosphere sincd I'm sitting in a long line of cars waiting to get food . Open a third line why don't you .?”

“We went here to hang after dinner on a Saturday, and it was really quiet (quieter than some of the libraries I've been to). Felt bad having a normal conversation, because of everyone studying around us.”
“The service here is fantastic. They are quick with getting your food to the table without compromising the quality of breakfast! From what it once was to what it is now, Off Street has done an amazing job bringing this once almost dead cafe back to life.”
“We had a great time here at this restaurant. All the dishes were delicious, but the chicken wings were the best. The sea cream taro milk tea was good. I ordered 25% sweetness, but it was pretty sweet for us. Overall, it was a good experience. We will definitely come back to try other dishes.”
“Would leave 7 seven starts on service if possible. Nicolas was great, super friendly and attentive without being over bearing. Would ask for him again! Thanks so much. Buttercake4life.”
“I stopped at this Korean influenced coffee shop on my way between LA and the court in Westminster. Obviously the name is a little...uh...unusual but when you walk in its clearly a coffee shop with food. Big interior with plenty of space to sit. Eclectic, Korean influenced drink menu. My cappuccino was very good. Some exotic Korean pastries, a sausage embedded croissant(pictured) and like savory cheese buns? I would need to be in a mood for one of those. Instead I got an almond croissant, which looked pretty standard but turned out to be quite delicious. Like unexpectedly delicious. It was empty at 8 am, hopefully they get a student crowd at some point?Vegetarian options: CroissantDietary restrictions: Bread and coffeeParking: Free shopping center lot.Kid-friendliness: YesWheelchair accessibility: Yes”
“the whiskey selection is outstanding!! but the service sucks! this is our second time and the first time we were at the bar since we were face to face with the bartender we got service but tonight the service was horrible.. its like the server forgot about us.. we had other servers kept coming over to take our drink orders because our MAIN server was never around and when she was we were like sorry but someone else already took care of it.. even the couple next to us walked out because no one came to ask them if they wanted drinks or even to check up on them and they were sitting there for about 20 mins and still no service.. again service was two thumbs down ?.. i guess next time ill do the bar because i at least there i know someone is always attentive..”
“Great local spot for coffee and snacks! I had the iced ube latte and a red velvet cupcake. Usually with ube anything it's either not enough of it or it's too sugary, but this one was just right. Great prices too!”
“Amazing! Went today for the first time as we were in town running some errands. Restaurant is super clean and updated, service was on point and fast. The food was the star of the show, we had a wet burrito and a taco, enchilada, chile relleno combo and it was so good, fresh and a great value for how much food we got. If you’re looking for a great little place for some delicious Mexican food, Mi Burrito is the spot!”
“We went to dinner on a Tuesday night, and our waiter David was very kind and attentive. We also got a free dessert which was delicious! Thank you David for your great work!”
“Our waitress was very kind and attentive.The food was so delicious! I ordered the falafel wrap. The portion was so generous and the food incredibly yummy. Next time I’ll order the salad as a side.”
“Omgeee Otto Kitchen! I ordered take out last night and it was so freakin good! I couldn't stop saying how good it was while I was eating it lol we ordered the black bean noodles and spicy pork plate and oh man the flavors in those sauces were incredible! I also ordered the sweet and sour pork and Mongolian noodles for the kiddos they were good also but the other two dishes blew me away. Service was very friendly, so I will definitely be back!”
“I come here for often for lunch.Gave it 4 starts on atmosphere for the only reason that it gets very busy during the week days.Lunch time so expect delays.They offer a great variety of different food. I had the cheeseburger for lunch and it was pretty tasty.I highly recommend the breakfast burrito and the chicken club sandwich.If you’re feeling brave the Pastrami sandwich is a must !!”
“The coffee spot is cozy, with soothing background music and a relaxing atmosphere. Both the cold brew and black coffee were delightful. The waffles exceeded expectations, and the ham and cheese jalapeno panini made for a delicious breakfast sandwich. I'll definitely be returning for another coffee and breakfast experience.”

“This is where we go for special occasions when we want solid Korean food, particularly savory soups. But that is not to say the other stuff on the menu is not worth trying. Some of the dishes deserve special recognition, because they are not typical (in my experience) or because they are exceptional. Not typical could include the Yeolmu Boribap, which is daikon radish greens mixed with barley rice and other ingredients. Very tasty and filling, even if I can't recall having it elsewhere. We really like it. Seasonal? Maybe. Exceptional could include the Doenjang soup/chigae, which we all agree is maybe the best we have tried in years. It is a treat. Many regard this dish, served elsewhere, as a pedestrian food, ordinary and a staple, but here it is elevated. The Chunggukjang is a more rustic version of the Doenjang soup/chigae, and it is very delicious. For the uninitiated, this is a stew made from something like (Japanese) natto, and it isn't great for a hot day, but rather, awesome for cold weather dining. Delicious, not for the delicate. In sum, this is a mom-and-pop style place, not some corporate chain, exactly the kind of place we like to support. People in the area who seek good homestyle Korean food will know this place and appreciate what they do here.”

“Green onion pancakes are crispy, flaky, and fragrant. Dry crispy pork spare ribs with spices, amped up with chopped garlic and jalapenos. My favorite every time mala spicy prime beef noodle soup, tasty sauté of mushroom medly with Chinese celery - a perfect accompaniment to spicy dishes and their house specialSpicy noodles for those of us who like it hot! I'm so glad they have good service and consistently delicious dishes!”

“Mul naengmeyon and dulsot bibimbap were fantastic! Very deep soup base flavor. Noodles were perfectly chewy.Everything is self service and the place is not necessarily the nicest but the food is fantastic. We got there at 10:45am and there were already a few people there right at opening.”
“I highly recommend this place, I've been coming here for many years. The food is very good and the sushi ? is awesome and drinks ? are the best. Give it a try and I guarantee you'll be back again and again.”
“Haven't been here in a really long time, thought we would try it again and was pleasantly surprised. Service was great and the food was good. Menu changed a bit and miss some stuff that existed on the menu pre-COVID, but will visit again soon.Dietary restrictions: Vegetarian and vegan options”
“This is my go-to hot pot spot in OC. I stopped going to boiling point a long time ago. They have such a long line, pricey, and a small portion. This place always has a plenty of seats with a nice ambiance, and customer service is very quick and efficient. If you go there for lunch, they give you free iced black/green tea. I”
“We had such a great experience! The food was AMAZING! Denim was our server and he was incredible. Probably the best server I’ve ever had. Definitely be coming back again.”
“Not bad. Not bad at all. Quite tasty. Not greasy. A good amount of food for the price. 3 item combo roughly $14. Orange chicken & jalapeno chicken, eggrolls. Other, orange chicken, Kung pao chicken, eggrolls. Rice has peas & carrots. Just a tad dry.”
“Great food, ambiance, and service. We are from out of town and we enjoyed our lunch here specially the (milk fish) bangus sisig and the (grilled pork raw tuna) sinuglaw. We're definitely going to try it again when we are in Artesia-Anaheim area”
“From the moment we walked in, at opening, everything was amazing. The lady who was the hostess was funny and kind. Our server Chloe was incredible and on par with all her suggestions. The food was served in perfect portions and marinated perfectly. Would immediately say yes to returning and suggesting the place. By the time we were done the place was busy and rightfully so with how good it was.”
“Frida has such a amazing atmosphere.The service here is incredible. I’ve been at few frida locations but this location is the best one, the manager here is great he’s always around helping, he is a team player. The food is great I recommend the shrimp fajitas and they have great vegan options on the label menu. Honestly the whole place is just a vibe to be at.”
“LOVED IT!! How have I not known about Lucilles before? Well, I know, know this place is awesome. Decoration on the inside of the restaurant makes you feel invited along with the aroma of bbq. I did not make reservations and had to wait (with a party of 7) for about 35 minutes. So I recommend getting reservations if you can. Our server was a nice young lady who checked on us several times and refilled our drinks. The food is outstanding. We ordered the family tray full of meats and 3 large side dishes, 2 full bbq chicken, 2 racks of ribs and one other choice of meat....our group wanted sausages too so we ordered 4 sausages as sides for $4 each, the sausages are good but were super spicy, im not sure if they had a not so spicy choice, I wish the waitress would have mentioned they were hot when ordering. The family bbq meal tray was around $130, we ended up taking a lot home because it really was a lot of food. If you like the 3 different kinds of bbq sauces then you can purchase some on your way out. Enjoy.”
“Definitely worth the drive! Everything from the lau lau to the Spam musubi was absolutely amazing! The chicken katsu was crispy and fresh! The lau lau was perfection!”

“This is a tough one, I'm picky with my pokeI make my own that meets the exact flavor profile I want. Umami, salty, slightly fishy, scallions, sesame oil and seeds, and a dash of seasoned rice vinegar. Hey that's a lot to ask for you say...sure I agree but that's what I like, and I didn't get it.There was nothing wrong basically but I thought it was all very densly packed into a small bowl separating all flavors, making it tuna here, seaweed salad there all flavors scattered independently from each other....Could it be fixed? Sure start with a wider birth on the bowl, maybe give people an idea what makes for a great sauce mix as the house sauce was lacking umami.”

“Yummy soup! Perfect place to go on a cold day.My girlfriend and I stopped here yesterday for some lunch. As busy and full as the parking lot was, this restaurant was nearly empty with only 3 parties in there around lunch time! It seems like most of the people that were parked there went to get dim sum, AYCE sushi, or Korean BBQ.We knew what we wanted to order (we normally order the same thing everywhere). We ordered A2. Shrimp and Pork Spring Rolls, I got P2. Rare Steak, and she got P1. Flavor Pho Combination.The results:- A2. Shrimp and Pork Spring Rolls: They come in a pair with each cut in half. Accompanied by the usual sauce with peanuts in it. It tasted refreshing and was pretty good.- P2. Rare Steak: I feel like most people order this as it's simple and good. The soup was delicious. I ordered an extra side of rare steak for more protein :). Good soup!- P1. Flavor Pho Combination: My girlfriend said it was really good and she finished a large bowl plus the spring rolls! That says a lot.Service was good. The man who greeted us and helped us out was always smiling and cheerful. We sat ourselves and was helped immediately.Parking was a little bit of a pain since it was packed due to the other restaurants in the plaza. There's only a few spots in the front of the restaurant, and unfortunately two of the spots in front are for curbside pickup for AT&T (what the heck!).I recommend this pho place if you're in the area!”

“RECOMMEND!!! The food is delicious!! You get an awesome quantity of food, price is well with it! Very economical Service is speedy! Ambiance gives you a New York feel definitely coming back again! Thank you to The Halal Guys!”
“I liked how you could mix the base for the bowl and I got to try their acai and ube base. I personally liked their acai base better base: acai, ube, coconut chia pudding and they have unlimited toppings this was their smallest size”
“Hosted a night out with friends and was looking for a local bar to go to and hang out. Was pleasantly surprised when I went in bar looks like it has been renovated has a big bar and nice size tables to accommodate parties of various sizes. Ordered some food like the nachos and bitch were excellent and tacos were delicious also had the lumpia taquitos which were on point with the sauce. The beer selection is good mixed drinks were priced moderately. Over all service was great we had two servers in charged of our table both were great. Was disappointed with all the 49ers decor but service and food made up for it.”
“OMG??? EVERYTHING WAS SO GOOD??? Okay let me go in order. The Thai tea.. was the best Thai tea I've had in so long, and for the portion the price was just right in my opinion just as the other meals, PLENTY FOOD FOR SUCH REASONABLE PRICES IS CRAZY THESE DAYS. I got the kimchi tom yum, and omg. See I'm not s big soup person unless it's pho, and this tom up was so good you guys. SO GOOD. It was the right amount of spicy and sour and the kimchi tasted so fresh. We also got the cucumber salad, and this was new to me because I usually get cucumber salad at restaurants but the style, presentation, and taste was completely new. I liked it I definitely did enjoy it, it's my second favorite kind of cucumber salad right now. I also got the cream cheese wontons, the crispyness of the wonton itself was decent and the cheese was so smooth I enjoyed it AND IT WASNT ONLY 4 PEICES GUYS THIS IS IMPORTANT IT WAS LIKE 8 FOR AROUND 8 BUCKS??? WOW. My boyfriend got the pineapple fried rice, I'm not s big fan or fried rice or anything but he really liked it and it was a big portion and he almost finished all of it. I ASKED FOR BOXES FOR EVERYTHING BECAUSE GOOD FOOD LIKE THAT SHOULDNT BE LEFT BEHIND. The atmosphere was super calm and I really enjoyed myself please this place deserves an award.”
“Omg ? I love this place, we drive all the way from south LA just to enjoy this delicious food. My 5 year old daughter loves it. That means a lot coming from a kid. Worth every penny.”
“This place is my favorite, delicious cacao nut bowl.. you can't beat the taste and freshness. The place is a bit small, but doesn't really matter. The service is decent. "No cash"”
“Tabouli salad varies greatly from vendor to vendor. This one at the Kabob Shop seems perfection to me! Just the right ratio of parsley, onion, grain, and lemon. Mmmm!And the chickpea salad is right next to it in perfection.Both perfect paring with the saffron chicken kabob”
“I was in the Cerritos area so I stopped at this location. I walked in and was greeted so nicely by a tall young man who also took my order.It was about 30 min before closing time, which made me nervous that the food wouldn't be fresh. It was not only fresh, it was delicious!Try the Cue with ranch dressing. Omgeeee! So good.”
“We've been going her since the 80's. Best Chinese food in town. Going to miss the place when they close all the business in that center for some new construction. I hope they re-open somewhere else. We love all the staff, food & simple ambiance ?”
“The bread and sauces were good. I had the Saltado chicken which was underwhelming. The flavor was decent, but the chicken was like rubber. I saw that it was chicken breast which might explain why it was so dry. Chicken thigh would have worked better. It was so bad that I stopped eating it. Maybe the cook had a bad day. My friend ordered the same thing except she got beef. It did taste better. I also ordered agua de maracuyá which was delicious. If there is a next time I'll try something different. I did notice other people enjoying their food. The wait staff was attentive and the restaurant was acojedor (cozy).”
“Now the service is excellent thanks to new employee Terry! She’s a 5 star girl! Made our visit very pleasant today ? I only took one star off because the place is a bit pricey.”
“First time in this place went to get some to go dishes, the food is really good the lady in the front was very helpful and friendly, my family enjoyed there a lots.”

“Clean, staff was friendly and took our orders quickly.Kid-friendliness: At the end of our meal they even gave my son a certificate to receive a free kids meal on our next visit.”
“You have to join the waitlist as this restaurant is really busy. But the wait is good due to the quality of their Dim Sum. Service is fast as long as you already know what to order. You have to scan the QR code provided to you and choose your order from the ”
“For my personal experience, going here every time I can is fire! I love the sandwiches. I personally ask for extra sauces. Their fries are very good as well. You should order the first sandwich listed.”
“Lunasia is always a solid choice for dim sum these days no matter what city Cerritos, Monterey park or Pasadena. All of them have a decent sized menu. Whether you're craving dim sum for lunch or dinner it's always good. Depending on where you go the staff is always busy, Monterey park has a pretty long line most of the time. But you can also try and order through the kiosk, app or online. If you don't mind waiting in line for a Chinese dining experience then you'll get the full Saturday and Sunday lunch experience. Overall they're always pack let and very busy but the food is solid.”
“Good basic burger with lots of options. Five of us had lunch for $60, so not cheap. Staff was efficient and got the whole order correct. I recommend the salad with chicken - really good. My husband's hamburger was also very good. We sat outside in the shade and the tables and chairs were clean and comfortable.”
“Jessica A. worked the counter and register alone! on 5/27/23. There was a long line yet she did a great job and continued working hard getting everyone what they needed. She exhibited great customer service. She deserves to be recognized from management. Manage apparently sent employees to other Pandas Express, leaving this location short staffed. Not so smart. I hope Jessica gets promoted there or elsewhere. She's great!”
“I'm a huge fan of Chick-fil-A's burgers and fries, and my recent visit to the branch in Cerritos Mall was no exception. The food was as delicious as always, living up to the high standards I've come to expect from this chain.However, the only aspect that was slightly disappointing was the limited dine-in hours, which ended at 9pm. While this might be due to the location within Cerritos Mall, it was still a bit inconvenient for those wanting to enjoy their meal inside the restaurant.Despite this, I found the experience enjoyable nonetheless, especially since I opted to order through the drive-thru. The efficiency of their service and the quality of the food made up for any inconvenience caused by the early dine-in closure.Overall, Chick-fil-A remains a top choice for delicious burgers and fries, and while the dine-in hours at this particular location may be limited, the drive-thru option ensures that customers can still enjoy their favorite meals with ease.”
“I've lived in the area for years and never noticed there was a KFC in this shopping center. I've been twice and have been able to be in and out in no time (take out) . Just wish it had a drive”
“I HOP is a great go-to for comfort food. The pancakes and country potatoes with avocados were so fresh, and the plant base was impossible pattie. Hot tea to top it off. Any time is the right time for a breakfast meal.Vegetarian options: The impossible pattie had great texture and taste. Highly recommendParking: Shopping center parking lot more than enough parking. Easy parkingKid-friendliness: Great for kids, a family environmentWheelchair accessibility: Tables are labeled for handicapped seating.”
“Haven't been here in a really long time, thought we would try it again and was pleasantly surprised. Service was great and the food was good. Menu changed a bit and miss some stuff that existed on the menu pre-COVID, but will visit again soon.Dietary restrictions: Vegetarian and vegan options”
“Tips for a busy night: Placed party of 3 on waitlist, it was anticipated to be 59-78 mins, then arrived on time to check in. The hostess asks what you want to order at the door (so be ready). Once a table opens up, you are seated and your food comes out almost immediately. Ambiance: Easy, laidback, food shared family style Food Ordered: Bulgogi Garlic Noodles Garlic Fried Chicken Wing Luv Dduk All 3 of us voted for Luv Dduk as our fav despite getting heartburn later. That is to be expected at my ripe age, but so worth it! Then the fried chicken comes in second, followed by garlic noodles. I would totally come back. Friendly staff, good food, bumpin' playlist and easy parking. What more could you ask for!”
“Enjoyed some great service from Dan... He gave us some great pointers on what beers to order and introduced us to the beer club which we absolutely love!!! We've been coming here for 4+ years how did we not know about this Gem of a club .. thank you once again Dan !!!”

“Polly's has kept itself relevant by adapting its ambience, food choices, etc. to changing tastes. The menu items are mostly home-style comfort food -- many with a twist, a spice or special ingredient that makes them unique. The prices are very reasonable considering the quality. Even if you're there for breakfast, you should never leave without having a slice of pie. You can't go wrong. They are all winners.”
“After some time visiting our go to Filipino restaurant in Lomita and after they changed location, raising prices, and deciding to go full blown commercial, decided to take a drive to Cerritos and pay 'Pinoy Pinay' a visit and give them a try.Me and my family came with a healthy appetite for Filipino home cooking.Being our first time not really knowing the outcome observed the many people visiting this spot.The smells and displays of their food was quite tantalizing. They have a large variety of dishes to choose from and our favorite is curry chicken, chicken/pork Adobo, pork menudo, pancit, lumpia, and I love binagoongan (which to my disappointment they didn't have today).My wife and daughter got their special combo with Curry chicken, grilled pork skewers which came with 3 scoops of rice. One bag of Lumpia and sweet dipping sauce.I got their special combo with Filipino menudo, pork Adobo, and the 3 scoops of rice. One of the servers behind the hot cases asked if I wanted their free bowls of homemade soup (being that I love soup) "Yes please" she also asked if my wife wanted one as well for she was ready to pay without getting any. She turned it down knowing she wouldn't finish it.After getting our food we selected a booth and started to enjoy our meals.To all of our surprise, everything was delicious. I was disappointed in the soup for it was just a tad bit on the vinegary side. I have had the chicken soup at our old Filipino go to restaurant and enjoyed it there, however here, was not for the taste palette.With the soup being too vinegary and their fish sauce/vinegar bottles on the dining tables needing a little tending to (could use to change to a more convenient dispenser), being my only gripe, I give this restaurant a 4 star.Restaurant was clean, organized, and had great service. We will be coming back to check out more items on the menu.Great Filipino food Pinoy Pinay!”
“I love their milk tea boba! Just the right amount of sweetness and the boba has a nice soft chewy consistency. I get the small pearls with my drink. My school gets drinks catered by them and I do have to say it's a great choice! I will have to try out the other drinks at their location but from the drinks that was catered by Twinkle they are amazing.”
“Stopped by to get our toddler a slice of cake to reward him for getting his haircut ( he hates haircuts so this has been our solution lol) we walked in showed him all their pastries and he decided on a slice of cake, strawberry cream cake. There were two cashiers at the front but took them a while to get to us but we were not in a rush so it was okay! The inside pastries are well displayed and everything looks nice and clean! Will definitely be back when in the area!”
“Upon entering we were greeted by a sweet hostess, the place is clean and spacious. We were seated at a booth with a privacy wall. We ordered appetizers and we ordered the spicy pork yum. It was crunchy and savory. The sauce had a sweet and sour feel to it and the cilantro made it very airy and fresh. Delicious! For my main, I ordered just a regular fried rice topped with some of the veggies and pork from the appetizer and it was amazing. The waitress was really kind and made sure we had everything we needed. The food was delicious, and the portions were great. We met one of the main chefs behind the kitchen and thanked him for the meal. This place has a lovely team behind it and the food is just an added plus!”
“Perfect place if you are seeking the authentic Korean experience. The mudfish soup is really good and healthy. We also regularly get the octopus stir fry which is equally amazing.”
“One of my favorite places to go to when I come back home to Cerritos. Easy to find, plenty of parking, friendly staff, and quick service!Location - 5/5On one of the more busy streets of Cerritos - fortunately It's down the street off of Pioneer in a huge plaza. I appreciate the large parking lot and it's proximity to other good treats (shout out Pinoy Pinay~).Service - 5/5Most days they don't know how to spell my name but hey at least they try and try again. Most days/times of the week, there is some sort of line, but it's line of busy workers bust through orders like nothing. Two things I appreciate: 1) their patience dealing with so many people; and 2) willingness to quickly make things right. Good people!Drinks - 5/5We all know Sharetea is franchised - so there aren't any drinks IMO that make me choose Sharetea over others. However, I enjoy that this Sharetea is always consistent with the quality of their drinks. When you order a Blended Taro with pudding in January, you are going to get the same Blended Taro with pudding in October.Overall - 5/5- Great location; lots of parking- Patient and kind people willing to work with you on drinks- Consistent quality drinks”
“A fun casual restaurant. I'd highly recommend trying one of the hot pots. It's massive with tons of stuff packed inside. Different vegetables, tofu, egg, meat, and more. So good! The plaza it's in also has a lot of great bakeries and boba and other spots.”
“Fantastic! My nephews work here and love it. Their boss is super chill and runs a good business. I love the pizza and crust. Thin for me and lots of cheese. Sorry, I didn't take any at the time, but I will post them later.Parking: It's a smei small parking lot with a good amount of parking.”
“Such nice and friendly service! I came in the morning and grabbed some bread from the section, and they offered to give me fresh ones that just came out. The bread was still warm!”
“Enjoyed a great brkfst. both times. Service was good considering they were very busy and appeared short staffed. Overall atmosphere could use a litttle makeover.”
“A quiet gem on the 2nd floor of Nordstroms. Even though it is a little odd to order and pay for a full-service meal with the hostess before sitting at a table, the food is really worth the visit. I ordered the Heirloom Tomatoes and Burrata as an appetizer. I think it needed to be seasoned a bit more appropriately, at least with a sprinkle of salt on the burrata. I followed it with a French Dip sandwich on a parmesan baguette served with a rich au jus and it was served with salt & pepper crush french fries and kalamata olive aïoli on the side. Great lunch!”
“Came here with my friend and the drinks were solid. I got the Osmanthus Tropic and Thai Tea for my friend. Solid Thai tea flavor and quite standard.Their fruit teas are way better though. The Osmanthus Tropic was flavorful and fruity with a deeper tea flavor. I got it with crystal boba. Id recommend this!”
“Very yummy food! Got the umaya ramen and curry jambalaya. They made the umaya taste different enough compared to other ramens with the ginger and egg. Place is a little loud and cramped. Will definitely go back though!”
“Love their basic milk tea and the Jasmine lychee green tea has real lychee pieces inside. Main issue for me has been the wait time for drinks compared to other 85 degrees otherwise it would be a 5”
“This is my go-to hot pot spot in OC. I stopped going to boiling point a long time ago. They have such a long line, pricey, and a small portion. This place always has a plenty of seats with a nice ambiance, and customer service is very quick and efficient. If you go there for lunch, they give you free iced black/green tea. I”
“Good old Sam Woo. Solid, reasonable, tasty food consistently. We're still mourning the closing of the stores in Irvine. Often take advantage of the multitude of stores in SGV when we are visiting. We were in the Seal Beach area, jumped onto the I-605, and were at the Cerritos store in about 15 minutes. It had been a long day and we just wanted takeout to take home and eat. Got a whole roast duck, cut up, and an order of chicken chow fun dry. Can't go wrong with those dishes. Great to have that consistent quality without driving up to San Gabriel Valley.”
“I saw this place as I was leaving and figured that I would try it out, it's somewhat hidden. (located next to dicks sporting goods) The employees were really nice and welcoming. The cashier also offered different suggestions to fit my tastebuds, since it was my first time here. I ordered the Jasmine milk tea, and honestly, it's now one of my favorites! It has a nice floral taste to it, not so overpowering. Although, it seemed to be a bit busy for them, I could see that they were working as fast as they could to get mine and other customers drinks out asap. Will for sure come back to try something different! :)”
“We had such a great experience! The food was AMAZING! Denim was our server and he was incredible. Probably the best server I’ve ever had. Definitely be coming back again.”

“I recently dined at Yuzu Shabu and Grill in Cerritos, and overall, it was a fantastic experience with just a few minor hiccups. Nestled in a popular food area, the first challenge I encountered was finding parking during peak meal hours. It's definitely worth considering arriving early or carpooling if you can. Once inside, the restaurant's cozy ambiance and friendly staff helped to set the stage for a delightful dining experience. I was promptly seated at one of their spacious tables, but I also noticed a vibrant bar area equipped with a handy heater for cooking. For my main course, I opted for the large brisket sukiyaki with raw egg, and I must say, it was a delectable choice. The tender slices of brisket paired perfectly with the broth and the raw egg added a creamy richness that elevated the dish to another level. Each bite was bursting with savory goodness, leaving me completely satisfied. One thing I'd like to highlight is the restaurant's Yelp promotion. By checking in on Yelp, I received a generous $3.00 off on my choice of soda or beer. It's a nice little perk that adds value to the overall dining experience.While the parking situation and potential wait times during peak hours can be a challenge, the delicious food and friendly service at Yuzu Shabu and Grill make it well worth a visit. I highly recommend trying their sukiyaki, and don't forget to take advantage of the Yelp discount for a refreshing beverage to complement your meal.”

“Second visit in a week.Hands down the best pho I have ever had. I believe that they use real bone broth (not the powder), so I can tase the umami, didn’t even have to put any garnish in the pho.Also, the fish sauce fry is a must try, can’t find it elsewhere.”

“Best cookies EVER!!! Haven't been to the store, but have used the online site for sending gifts. They're delivery service is spot on punctual! Fantastic company!!”
“I liked how you could mix the base for the bowl and I got to try their acai and ube base. I personally liked their acai base better base: acai, ube, coconut chia pudding and they have unlimited toppings this was their smallest size”
“This place is incredible! I’ve only ever had katsu sandos from Japan at local convenience stores (Family Mart & 7-11), they were delicious however they weren’t super fresh and weren’t crispy due to having to be microwaved. I wanted a taste of Japan so sought out some Katsu sandos and landed here. It far exceeded my expectations. I got the Rosemary Katsu Sando with Spicy Mayo. The chicken was audibly crispy and fresh, the bread nice and soft, and the spicy mayo was the perfect level of spice and the perfect compliment to the sandwich. I got a side of waffle fries which were arguably the best waffle fries i’ve ever had, they were perfectly crispy and had a light seasoning that gave them an amazing taste and set them apart from the waffle fry competition. Nice portions on the sando however it’d be nice to fit in some more fries. I had a bite of one with berry sauce and it was too sweet for my liking but still good, i’ll be sticking with the spicy mayo (or maybe try the baja chipotle sauce). I wish they had more drink options such as homemade lemonade.Katsu Bar: 9.6/10”
“Frida has such a amazing atmosphere.The service here is incredible. I’ve been at few frida locations but this location is the best one, the manager here is great he’s always around helping, he is a team player. The food is great I recommend the shrimp fajitas and they have great vegan options on the label menu. Honestly the whole place is just a vibe to be at.”
“I like it here but the wait time tends to be long and because they are so busy, there is always some sort of mistake made or servers don’t have a whole lot of time to make sure you have everything you wanted. Not necessarily the worker’s faults though. Not trying to be not picky here either, this is what has happened every single time I’ve been here so far. Regardless, is a pleasant experience. You just might have to compromise a little bit due to the fact they tend to be so busy.”
“Beautiful location with wonderful windows and nice, bright ambience. They have an excellent location that is easily accessible and looks great! Their baked goods are pretty good, but not wonderful and excellent. There is a much better Korean/French bakery up the street and other Asian-style bakeries nearby. This is more of a place to hang out and a backup place. Still, glad they are open.”
