“Stopped by a small boba spot in La Puente and it turned out to be a hidden gem. The drinks were fresh, not overly sweet, and the boba had that perfect chewy texture—exactly how it should be.
What really stood out though was the service. The lady who helped us was amazing with my kids—super patient, kind, and made the whole experience even better.
The place itself is simple, clean, and has a chill vibe. Definitely one of those spots you want to come back to. If you’re in La Puente and craving boba, it’s worth checking out and supporting local.“

“Yumi Time is one of those low-key neighborhood spots that quietly wins you over with real comfort food and genuinely kind service. A Taiwanese homestyle flavors, and everything we tried tasted like it was cooked with patience instead of shortcuts.
The braised pork rice bowl was the first “okay, this is legit” moment. The pork was chopped into glossy, tender cubes with that rich soy-braised aroma, spooned generously over hot white rice. It hit the perfect balance of savory and slightly sweet, with enough collagen-y goodness to feel luxurious without being greasy. The little pop of bright pickles on the side (and fresh cilantro on top) kept each bite clean and addictive.
The noodle soup was just as satisfying. It came in a big metal bowl with a clear, comforting broth, loads of bean sprouts and greens, and a braised egg that tasted properly marinated. The noodles were light and slurpable, and the soup had that simple, clean depth that’s hard to get right—especially when you want something soothing but still flavorful. Add a touch of chili (if you like heat) and it becomes even more craveable.
We also ordered the braised pork knuckle bowl, and it’s absolutely worth it if you like melt-in-your-mouth texture. The skin and meat were tender, richly seasoned, and paired perfectly with rice, pickled ginger, and herbs. It’s hearty, satisfying, and the kind of dish that makes you slow down and enjoy the whole bowl.
Don’t skip the side dish with tofu puffs and cabbage—soft, spongey tofu that soaks up sauce, plus cabbage that stays crisp-tender. It’s a great add-on to balance the richer braised items.
Service was a highlight. Staff were warm, attentive, and quick to check in without hovering. Food came out fast, everything was neatly plated, and the overall vibe felt relaxed and welcoming. Portions were generous for the price, and the dishes all worked well family-style if you’re sharing.“
“Was a perfectly fine boba place. We had the coconut based drinks, osmanthus and jasmine, with cheese foam. The osmanthus is more fragrant, perfect at 75% sweet. The jasmine probably needed 100% sweetness because it was a bit lighter in taste.
Quick and efficient service.“

“Breakfast specials until 11:30am including weekends. Strong coffee and great muffins are a nice pair. The carrot muffin and lemon muffin are our favorites, however the strawberry muffins are great but only available in the summer. We are usually seated right away and the coffee is refilled frequently. The staff are friendly and attentive, the dining room is bright and restrooms are clean. Some lunch and dinner options come with a slice of pie. They have a nice separate room for private parties. It's a great local restaurant. If you stop by for lunch or dinner, some of the options come with your choice of a slice of pie.“

“Whenever I'm in this side of town I look to pop by here. They really do keep it interesting with their drink lineup. My favorite is the their classic mango but I've also had some of their other seasonal drink lineup. Eager to see what other drinks they have in their rotation next.“

“The Food was Hot and delicious. The Cooks ( Chefs) were hard at work and really know how to cook fish. Never spoke to not one wait staff never approached never asked how everything was, just called my name and handed me my tray. So can't rate service. And had to use their order screen and was a little confused since this has been placed in the store's.“

“Mr. Rice Restaurant was exactly what I needed after a long day. We came in late, and I had not been feeling well in my stomach the entire day, so I wanted something warm, comforting, and easy to eat. A bowl of their rice noodles was perfect. After eating it, I felt so much better and much more comfortable.
The rice noodles were warm, soothing, and satisfying without feeling too heavy. The broth and flavors were comforting, and it was the kind of meal that really hits the spot when you are tired or not feeling your best. It felt simple in the best way — warm, flavorful, and relaxing.
We also tried the BBQ items, and they were very good as well. The flavor was tasty, savory, and enjoyable, making the meal feel more complete. It was a nice surprise because the rice noodles were already comforting, but the BBQ added extra flavor and variety.
Overall, Mr. Rice Restaurant was a great experience. The food was comforting, the rice noodles made me feel much better, and the BBQ tasted good too. I would definitely recommend this place if you are looking for a warm, satisfying, and comforting meal.“

“I really like 疙瘩汤 here. The BBQ is pretty good too. I do wish they had more seasonings on the side though, like cumin or chili flakes.
One small thing: one of the servers was kind of rough when putting down plates and bringing out food. The movements were really fast and the noise was pretty loud, which caught us off guard a bit.
Overall the food is solid, and I’d still come back. Just hoping the service can be a little more relaxed next time.“

“I have been coming here every Saturday for 5 years straight. This is the greatest bowl of pho you will ever consume in the city of Los Angeles, possibly even the country. The broth is the definition of perfection, buttery from the fat and made from bone traditionally, not fragrant or made from a vegetable stock.
The customer service is straight forward. They take your order, and bring you your food. Just because they don’t baby you or pamper you doesn’t mean they are “rude”. With their methods of customer service, they are able to bring out your bowl of pho in 2 minutes, while providing the same equal attention to detail to the rest of the customers, and the cleanliness and efficiency of the restaurant.
The owner and staff have a wonderful restaurant, and truly make us feel like family.“

“I guess I’m kind spoiled in Santa Monica when it comes to getting everything together but the cashier thumbs up she was amazing from the beginning she so happy engaging wow she was so amazing I couldn’t believe it highly recommend going there just for her . Her name is D’nice I haven’t seen customers service like that in a while and that’s why you guys got 5 starts from me. There was one person who had a bad attitude I thought my other drink was ready because it was the same drink I assumed the one that was on the other counter was mines my mistake it happens right :) . She had the worse attitude saying we are busy in a tone that wasn’t necessary her name was Isabel I’m sorry you had a bad weekend you shouldn’t take it in to your work place and of course you can play the video back not once was I rude . I went to one of the table waiting for my drink but then I got up for a water and here goes Isabel (karen ) that’s how I felt she was and she says we are busy your drink is coming up ok . I went for a water I wasn’t ask for my drink because she already told me it was coming . It sucks because I was about to put a one star but here comes D’nice to save the day . Gave me the water talked for a few and I sat down called my name for my drink had a couple of sips not that good but the bagel was amazing.. well I’ll be calling as well for D’nice she was amazing“
