She took care to bag my chocolate cookies separately so the heat of the food didn’t melt them, and ran out to the parking lot to catch me when I forgot one of my bags. Best customer service ever!“

“Been going here for years !!!“

“So my roommates and I try new pho spots all the time, and this is one of the best spots we've been to in a while. The broth is herby, and just full of nice flavors it's not just the meat. The meat is also fantastic. The staff,
(I believe the owners?) we're an absolute delight. They cracked jokes with us, gave us recommendations, showed us a way to mix the sauces we hadn't already done. It was genuinely a great time and we will all be back.“

“This place gets pretty busy on weekends! The parking lot may be full but you can still park along the street. It’s pretty large so there’s usually seats. I love the borracho fries, so good! Also the pulled pork and the cheeseburger are tasty too. The service is good as well. My one complaint is they run out of their popular items by 2pm, tri tip and hot links get sold out really fast. I know they can only bbq so much but maybe add some more of the popular meats?“

“This is really a hole in the wall just like in Mexico. The best food comes out of those places. The food is fresha nd hot and very good here. We love the tacos. I ordered the chilawuiles and didn't care for them they doused them in sour cream it jsut was not good. All the other food I have had was so good.“

“I have eaten Vietnamese cuisine throughout California, and Grandpa Tao ranks among the best. In addition to the amazing tastes, the casual restaurant is friendly and comfortable. Ingredients are fresh, the environment clean and relaxing. I particularly recommend the Pho, the Rice Vermicelli (try it!) and the Shaking beef. You'll like it.“

“I like the bean burritos.“

“Super nice people dident take long to have my order ready I made a post on fb looking for a big pizza and a bunch of friends recommended this place I’m happy I gave it a try my family is happy and we only finished half the pizza it was perfect thank you for your service 🙏🙏🙏🙏 will be back soon I posted pictures of the after lol thank you guys“

Going back for the Sunday Buffet everything put out is always delicious but my favorite is the menudo!! I guess I'll hover around that bowl 🥣 do your self a favor go there and enjoy you won't be sorry“

“The best Cheesesteak I’ve had in years, I’ll definitely be back. The Vanilla Cream soda was pretty awesome as well! I chowed down before I took a photo.
To Antonia who left a 1 star review because it mistakenly had onions, get over it. I’m pretty sure they’ll make you a new one.🙄“

“Best fish and chips and fried zucchini is amazing. Long wait in drive through but get a shake and you will be happy. Peanut butter butter banana is my favorite“

“Maverick, was an amazing host. Flora, was an amazing Server. Lily, was neither the host or our server but gave the upmost greatest customer service. We went out to another restaurant earlier and we're highly disappointed and dissatisfied with the customer service, presentation and even the taste and temperatures of our food. They say the third time is a charm but today it was saving the best for last! No complaints, beautifully great customer service and satisfying time!! Thank you team for the amazing job! We will be back!“

“Had such an amazing experience at Botani! Luiza was truly the best chef, the breakfast was honestly 10/10. Everything tasted so fresh, flavorful, and perfectly made. The customer service was also amazing, and the whole atmosphere felt so welcoming. My friends and I had such a great time and genuinely enjoyed every moment there. Definitely one of the best breakfast spots we’ve been to!“

“This has become a favorite spot for our family. They’re always adding new menu items, and the staff is consistently kind and welcoming to both us and our kids. It’s a great casual sushi restaurant for families who want to try different dishes without spending a fortune.

We appreciate having an affordable local restaurant where we can enjoy a fun night out without breaking the bank.“

“I ordered 5 Ground Beef Kabob Skewers , 5 Chicken Tikka Skewers, 1 chicken cream chop, 1 Shawarma Wrap, Rice, Hummus & Salad. Served with Pita Bread, Grilled So when I got home I find out there is only 4 Ground Beef kabob and 4 chicken Tikka And that was so embarrassing for me because I invited 5 people for lunch That was really bad experience“

“Excellent service, friendly atmosphere..food very satisfying“

“4/4/2022 My first time getting a pizza from here, and it was amazing! I look forward to trying other items as well.“

“It’s been a while since I’ve been here. Me and my buddy came here and wanted to try a lot of food. We started off surf n turf burrito which was spectacular. They ask you if you want Mexican guac ( pure avocado ) or American guac ( avocado & sour cream mixed ). The shrimp is marinated and the asada is fresh and tasty ! Then we shared the hot Cheeto carne asada fries. After that we each shared a half of carne asada torta ! Very delicious. Last item was a carne asada quesadilla supreme which was loaded ! We sat outside and enjoy the beautiful weather. Our cashier was helpful in telling us what to order. Definitely coming back here“
