“Great service, My friends and I come from Germany, and our English is so so, most of this I had to use Google Translate. However, there was a kind young lady who was able to help us in German with a name something along the lines of Jessi, and she was very helpful, especially for my friends who can't really speak English well. So I wanted to give credit, and the food was great.“

“Amazing Japanese cuisine in Costa Mesa, CA. This place is one of the best Japanese restaurants in all of Orange County. The interior style resembles what all Japanese restaurants should look like, and most importantly, the food and service was top notch. They have an extensive sushi menu and it has always been very fresh and also Japanese imported. Hands down, my top 5 favorite Japanese restaurants in California.“

Tacos Al Pastor

“Love this place and it deserves way more love than it's getting. Was desperate to find my new fix when we moved to the area and this place quickly slammed it out of the park. For the price (48) for everything we got (1 2 liter Fresca, 1 birria burrito, 1 chile verde combo plate and 2 medium drinks) it was a steal. Don't let the medium denomination deceive you this place can but a big gulp to shame and the plates especially the burrito was stacked out the ass with the best birria I've had outside of Ensenada. Everyone was very nice and good came out faster than I thought! Give this place all the love it needs there's tons of food spots but I'm definitely not hitting the others up after this!“
