“Had the pleasure of visiting Tacos El Sobrino in the city of Downey, CA.
I've been enjoying their food for years from a their location off of 54th Street and Central where they sell Excellent Tendon Tacos. Now, they have this Brick and Mortar location.
I had the Birria Ramen and a Tendon Taco. Everything was delicious! Will be back again.“

“I had an excellent lunch at this Panera Bread today! The service was efficient and friendly, with the staff making sure my meal was prepared just the way I like it. I had the Bacon Turkey Bravo, which was fantastic—crispy bacon and tender turkey on fresh, soft bread. The ambiance was just right—bright and airy with a calm atmosphere. It’s the perfect place to enjoy a delicious meal in a laid-back setting. I’ll definitely be coming back for more!“

“สนุกสนานอาหารอร่อย บรรยากาศดีมีระดับ“

“Love that this is in Bell gardens! I no longer have to travel for good pho! I tried the spicy beef pho -so good, however I think next time I’ll get the regular beef pho, so I can control the flavors a bit more. I also got the milk tea. The flavor was great and not too sweet which Is great given that some places over due it with the sweetener. Women who helped was friendly with a lovely smile. I used the drive thru this time next time I’ll give sitting in a go.“

“Me gusta la comida pero no tienen q perder el cuidado en la presentación de los platos y asegurarse q lleven todo eso es muy importante aun tengan mucha junte haser los platos con la misma cuidado de ciempre“

“Visited Muboongri Cerritos and loved their Chadol Jjim! Juicy, tender beef with flavorful beef broth—perfect with rice. Not too spicy, great for families. Clean vibe, friendly staff, and quick service. Around $40 for two, such a steal! Can’t wait to try their Soondae Guk next. Highly recommend!“

“We had a wonderful experience here!! Service was 10/10 and they helped make my friend’s birthday memorable. The ramen is delicious - not too salty or oily or heavy, and the broth is super tasty. This establishment has a rich history; ask the servers!

Thank you to Mija, our server, for an amazing experience!“

“Great all around food choices with excellent quality! All the staff are personable, friendly, and knowledgeable. Great service with great prices!! Love Appu’s“

“So delicious! Many selections for all palettes!“

“Everything we had here was fantastic! I loved the mango iced tea because it actually tastes like mangos, the chicken was nice and crunchy on the outside, juice and delicious on the inside. We also had xiao baos and their dry noodles with peanut butter sauce which were both fantastic! I would recommend against getting their devils hot sauce unless you have like an amazing spice tolerance! I thought my spice tolerance was fine because i can handle tapatio and valentina easily but this sauce left me chugging my drink and feeling the chili under my tongue for hours!“

“😃I like the way they cook all family members working real Thai Food cook by Thai people“

“As we walked in, it smells delicious 😋 but I ordered the Chile Verde with potatoes and let me tell you... It's absolutely delicious and authentic!! Everything was great. The Huarache of carne asada was Soo good my mom loved it and the tacos de lengua 💣 bomb .. we ordered agua fresca de Limon and it too was delicious 😋 not at all over powering of sugar it was perfect and I mean perfect. I'll definitely be coming back here .“

“Delighted with their service and food. Serving is perfectly good for 2 and with reasonable price.“

“I enjoyed this place a lot. It was a little bit hard to find at first, as it is located above the supermarket. The server was very friendly, helping me to find a good vegetarian option. The cold sesame noodles were tasty and refreshing, and the price is not bad ($8.99). The dining area is spacious and comfortable.“

“My family came here before, and loved it so much they made us drive 1 hour 10 through LA traffic to come again. All vegetarian (some contain eggs, clearly marked), mostly vegan. First class food. The best was the Vege Fish with Pine Nuts; but even the Chopped Mustard with Tofu Skin was excellent. The other tables were all filled with Chinese people - it looks popular.

“The place has a cozy, vintage charm, perfect for relaxing with friends over a few drinks and some freshly grilled skewers. Every skewer was perfectly seasoned and cooked — smoky, juicy, and full of flavor. The staff were friendly and welcoming, making the whole experience even better. A must-visit spot if you love good food and a great atmosphere!“

“Food is delicious and great variety“

“Excellent, clean, attentive, friendly service. Definitely would go back.“

“Came here after a Dodger game and was very happy with the food, service, and quiet atmosphere. All the food was delicious and came out quick. It was exactly what we needed.

Staff informed us right away there is no bathroom in the restaurant but directed us to the nearest one if needed.“

“Nem Nướng Khánh Hoà is widely praised for its authentic Vietnamese cuisine and warm atmosphere. The restaurant’s specialty is nem nuong cuon, a dish of grilled pork meatballs wrapped in rice paper and served with fresh herbs and vegetables. The dish stands out for its flavorful, fresh grilled pork and the crunchy texture of the accompanying ingredients“

“Have lunch with co-workers every week here. Great food and very friendly service. Best Thai food I've found in the South Bay area!“

“Me encanto este lugar todo muy rico y muy atentos buen servicio“

“My first time and very satisfied. I ordered pork soup with rice and it is soooooo good!“

“I've been to many Pho restaurants and this one stands out because, they offer unlimited noodles for free!!! They have different types of noodles but the traditional noodles you typically get with Pho, you can ask for an unlimited amount. Just the noodles so no proteins but how cool is that? One portion was good enough for me, but I saw plenty of other customers asking for extra noodles. What a way to stand out. What adds to the appeal is that the food was good. I ordered the Pho Tai with meatballs and the food tasted clean wasn't greasy or heavy. The service was good and brisk as most Asian restaurants are. The prices were reasonable as well and would definitely come back.“

“Fish tacos are AMAZING!
The Lengua was boiled or over cooked for me.
Great food, homie feel inside, service is VERY Good.

Parking: I usually park in the liquor store parking lot

Kid-friendliness: Very clean.
Lots of seating.
Salsa bar.

Wheelchair accessibility: It's a slim doorway but worth the amazing food.“

“Went in today !! Gotta say the food was great .. had spicy beef soup and my wife had bulgogi and dumplings … was completely satisfied with this place !! Also we were the only 2 customers there .. which was shocking after having tasted the food … very delicious… how is this not a popular place ???“

“Today I went to eat with my friend and I liked the food and I’m happy to see that they changed their staff since previously the other boy had a terrible attitude to serve customers but today I left very satisfied to see that they served me very well“

“Our go to Ramen location. My daughter and I have been coming here since before they got popular. They definitely put out a great ramen and various offerings including sushi rolls. Highly recommend coming in earlier for dinner as they fill up quickly, especially on Friday/Saturdays.“

“Very clean, nice environment.
They have changed ownership and go by Vietnamese restaurant express now.
Bartender gave out free ice chia lattes when i was there which was really nice.
It was also slow so don’t count on the same perks when you visit.
Definitely would try again“

“I been coming here for a year now happy to see dine in is open again, amazing beef noodle soup and I yummy fruit tea. Very worth the price and family own business that has amazing customer service 10/10“

“The meat pies are flaky and soup-filled—eat carefully! Green onion pancakes are also solid. It’s a cozy room with simple service and quick turnover. Great spot when you want something comforting and a little different. Cash or card both fine on my last visit.“

“The Tofu Spring Rolls are good, but lacking flavor. Me personally, I like peanut butter, but the Hoisin Sauce with Peanut Butter had a weird aftertaste. The pork chop was nice and charred, but also lacked some flavor. The vermicelli (noodles) is a nice filler. Great service, and overall nice interior, the only real problem is being crammed with space.“

“Came here on a whim with my husband, and I was not only surprised by how wonderful the atmosphere was. The food was delicious and got out quickly, the price was also very surprising. I will becoming back here, it's definitely a cozy spot for brunch! Especially with the staff being so nice and attentive, can't say enough good things about it!“

“Our first time ever Trying the Vietnamese food! One word ; THE BEST!!“

“me gustó la sopa y los apps“

“the food is really good.and the service is very good. love it.“

“This is a place I often visit. The broth is truly delicious. It's prepared with fresh ingredients, and the sundae is beautifully plated. The kimchi is exceptionally delicious, and I love the variety of side dishes. The best part is the hospitality. I always feel delighted when I visit. When the owner is kind to his guests, everyone respects each other and enjoys the meal.“

“Love their duck salad! I've never had duck cooked this way before and it's delicious. They have this awesome deal... if you buy the half duck salad, get a bowl of noodles with it free! But it's dine in only.
Been here 2x now and definitely would come back. I want to give food 4.5 stars only bc the Thai tea I had was barely sweet. Didn't love it.“

“There are only so many Korean spots in Monterey Park, so I come to Lee's every now and then for some Korean comfort food. Even though the menu prices are a little higher than your average Korean meal, the service and taste never misses. I love the tofu soups, kimbap, cold noodles, and ban chan. Also can't go wrong with any of their meats or variety of entrees they have!“

“This place is so good you know it’s fire when it’s elderly Thai mommas cooking 🧑‍🍳

Reminds you of Thailand 🥹

Note: thai food is normally on the hot end so ask for less spicy if you can’t take the heat.

Will be back thank you again!“

“Service was top notch tonight“

“El personal super amable , las pupusas y el atol de elote delicioso !! Hemos ido varias veces y siempre son tan serviciales !! Muchas gracias 😊“

“Had a really good experience at BCD Tofu House in Artesia. The service stood out — everyone was super attentive without being overbearing, and they made sure we had everything we needed throughout the meal.

The food was solid and came out fast. The tofu soup was flavorful and comforting, and the sides were fresh and well-prepared. We also got the galbi combo, and the meat was tender and nicely marinated.

Overall, this is a great spot for Korean comfort food with reliable service. Would definitely come back“

“This place is an old school Korean restaurant but the food is excellent. As someone who recently moved from Koreatown LA to a gateway city, I had to find my go to Korean restaurant and I think this is one of my favorite places. We like to get the Uhndaegoo jorim (braised black cod). Some of our other favorites are the dahk gae jang, as well as the bohtsahm. The atmosphere is very modest and simple, but this is the kind of place that suits me.

I highly recommend this place both for Korean traditionalists as well as non-Koreans who just want some really good quality Korean food.“

“The food was generally tasty, and the service wasn’t bad either.
However, I found it a bit sneaky that the tip suggestions—18%, 22%, and 25%—were calculated based on the total including tax, rather than the pre-tax subtotal, which is the standard practice.
I’m not sure which credit card processor the merchant uses, but it felt a bit misleading.“

“Thai Chili Express is a hidden gem that truly delivers an authentic Thai dining experience. From the moment you step inside, you’re greeted with a warm, cozy atmosphere that feels welcoming and relaxed. The staff are incredibly friendly and attentive, making you feel like a valued guest rather than just another customer.

The food? Absolutely amazing. Each dish bursts with authentic Thai flavors, perfectly balanced and expertly prepared. Whether you’re craving a classic Pad Thai, a rich and creamy Green Curry, or something with a bit of a spicy kick, you can taste the care and tradition in every bite. The portions are generous, and the presentation is on point, making it a feast for both the eyes and the taste buds.

If you’re a fan of Thai cuisine or just looking to try something new, Thai Chili Express is a must-visit. Their combination of delicious food, friendly service, and a cozy atmosphere guarantees a dining experience you’ll want to repeat. Highly recommended! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟“

“When I first arrived to this restaurant, I didn’t see any other diners and was quite hesitant. But soon enough they proved my ‘pre-thoughts’ wrong.
Definitely one of the best Vietnamese home cooked meals at a restaurant in the area. The flavour is so authentic that can transport you back to the Southern of Vietnam (mien Tay) in a bite. We ordered the lunch set for family and cannot fault a thing. It came with canh chua, ca chien, goi tom thit, ca kho, bap cai chua. Flavour was mouth watering and all very good value for money. This is such a hidden gem. Highly recommend!“

“This pho shop makes a super rich broth that feels homemade. The filet mignon pho is melt-in-your-mouth good. Service is quick, though the restaurant gets crowded on weekends. Prices are reasonable for the portion size. A reliable stop for comforting pho“

“Different Vietnamese cuisine in the United States, sour soup with hot stir-fry, several bowls of rice, burgers, jellyfish salad (like chicken salad ?), pan-fried pomfret, Vietnamese pickles, salty crispy shrimp, and other dishes Five dishes and one soup, come and try it?“
