“First time eating there, very nice place food was delicious and the servers was great 😊”
“The price for lunch is too good. I cant choose my favorite dish because they were all very good. Im also not a fan of ice creams but their gelatin like ice cream was too good. I finished everything”
“We had a great dining experience at Urban Plates in Long Beach. Mariana explained the menu choices in a very unrushed manner, and we decided on the steak. I ordered the Chimichurri grass-fed steak with balsamic brussel sprouts and herb-roasted potatoes. All of it was delicious ( and healthy too!). The deserts were absolutely killer too. We will definitely eat here again next time we're in Long Beach.”

“The best place to try Bosnian food! I can’t pick one favorite, from cevapi to pizza to pita , this food taste like homemade. All employees are nice and friendly, but the owner is an amazing human being, so humble and approachable, honest and relatable, love chatting with him every time we visit Cali, which is usually 2-3 times a year and we make sure we eat lunch and dinner at Sofra Urbana every day. See you soon! Can’t wait for the most delicious Bosnian food on the west side of the United States.”
“Absolutely loved this place! The Turkish breakfast platter was amazing, everything was so fresh, flavorful, and delicious. The restaurant has such a warm, homey feeling, and the owners were genuinely so kind and welcoming. You can really feel the love and hospitality in everything they do. Definitely a spot I’ll be coming back to next time I’m in California ❤”
“Linh, our server was super friendly and pleasant. She always smile and attentive to her customers. You always feel happy to have her serve you. She's best at her jobs.

“Sushi Koto is always a treat for me. I love to come here for what I feel is the next best thing to eating in Japan. There is always a wait for Sunday brunch, but they do take reservations. Excellent service and friendly staff. This is definitely not your ordinary neighborhood Japanese restaurant. Highly recommend it!”
“Always a blast at the Blarney Stone! Regulars that will make your day and bartenders that know your drink! They are hard working and great people you will love them all no matter who is working! All the memories and Great Wall decor it’s worth checking it all out! Different things going on all the time no matter what day of the week! I go every time I visit Orange county! You may just find your people here !! Cheers!
(Also.. you can get food next door , just ask and anyone will tell ya! I recommend the carne asada fries)
Forever grateful for the people I have met here!”
“We were a party of 5 with two babies and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. The food was excellent, super friendly and attentive. My absolute favorite was the takoyaki, it’s probably some of the best I’ve ever had. We ordered the Bento box for the kiddos, and 5 other rolls, all equally as delicious. The decor is super cute and cozy, ideal for a date night as well as a family meal. I can’t wait to go back.”
“Matcha - need I say more? lol The matcha quality is great. Their drinks are not on the sweeter side so you really can taste the matcha. My sister got this matcha drink with water instead of (oat) milk, which I think is silly but hey, it worked lol The ambiance is a cute coffee shop vibe with limited seating and tables.”
“Highly recommended, eating here feels like I am in Bangkok already! Thick flavor authentic Thai food😍 everything is perfect and in big portion🥳 recommended this place to my friends when I first came here, and we will come back again and again!”
“Every time I come here the food is amazing. The staff is kind and everything is so fresh and clean. I love Turkish food and so thankful to have a delicious place just around the corner from me!!”

“An Evening at Kin Izakaya: Where Tradition Meets Ambiance In the culinary haven that our city embodies, Kin Izakaya emerges as a sanctuary of authentic Japanese flavors combined with the convivial spirit typical of Japan’s iconic gastropubs. It’s here that tradition and modernity collide to create not just a meal, but an experience worth savoring. The moment you step through the doors of Kin Izakaya, you’re greeted by an atmosphere that’s both lively and intimately comforting. The ambient lighting, coupled with rustic décor and understated oriental motifs, offers a welcoming reprieve from the city’s hustle and bustle. The soft murmur of patrons engaged in animated conversation sets the backdrop for an authentic izakaya experience. Kin Izakaya’s menu is a harmonious blend of traditional Japanese fare and innovative culinary creations. The tapas-style dishes, perfect for sharing, encourage a communal dining experience. From the delicate flavors of their sashimi to the robust, savory notes found in their yakitori selection, there’s a delightful complexity in each dish presented. The agedashi tofu, with its perfect crispy exterior giving way to silken tofu within, is a testament to the chef’s prowess in honoring traditional flavors while serving contemporary palates.”
“Our first time here, and we had a great experience! The food, service, and ambiance were all excellent. My husband’s favorite was the braised pork over rice, our teen boy loved the lamb dip, and my favorite was the mango forbidden ice snow. Prices are very reasonable for the food quality and overall experience. Good to know they take reservations.We’ll definitely be back!”
“This place is so good every time we go and order it’s sooooo good. Their food is made fresh and delicious. It’s my favorite Indian food restaurant. Me and my family love it so much we drive for like 20 min to get it instead of another closer Indian food place that couldn’t even come close to this one. I definitely recommend getting this”
“Came to Huntington Beach to run some errands and found this cafe on the map. It’s such a lovely place, with delicious food and fantastic service. Highly recommend it, and we’ll definitely be back if we get the chance! 🫰❤”
“This is my favorite raw vegan restaurant! They also have a large menu of cooked vegan (or maybe that should be the other way around). I haven't tried their cooked food, but it looks absolutely delicious! I have not been to LA or the area in many years, and I am missing Au Lac!”

“For 20 years, after we have a family get together. Its been a tradition that we all have breakfast at the Magnolia Cafe before we all part ways. It’s always clean, the food is always delicious and the service has always been wonderful. It is truly a special establishment!”
“Amarith Farmhouse Restaurant & Pie Shoppe is a casual farm-to-table spot with a big menu, made-from-scratch dishes, fried chicken, and pies. They also have a farm where some of the restaurant's ingredients come from, which was pretty neat. They even let us try watermelon from the farm. In addition to the food, they also had lots of pies and even frozen chicken pot pies in the fridge/freezer.
You order at the front, and they bring the food out for you. The restaurant had a chill vibe with light music in the background. Just know that they can run out of items quite early. We went on a Friday around 6:30pm, and I wanted to try the Short Rib Pasta, but they didn't have it.
* Bone-in Fried Chicken 5/5 - This came out hot with crispy skin and a crunchy texture while still being light and juicy. I was thinking, it's just fried chicken, but it ended up being pretty good. You also get 2 sides to go with it.
*Brussel Sprouts side 4/5 - These tasted decent with a good texture.”
“Best matcha I've ever had in my life and I'm not even joking. had a beautiful strawberry matcha with real strawberries not just syrup and super rich and earthy dark matcha that was not grainy. despite the line being outside the door, it moved quickly. while im not the hugest fan of minimalism, the inside was very nice. my drink was around $7 which is the usual price of a matcha.”
“The food is fantastic, the staff is very friendly. There is plenty of seating if you want to come with a bigger group. The outside seating has plants all around and looks gorgeous. Place is very clean and well maintained. The prices for the food is nice , you get amazing portions for the price. It is definitely become one of my favorite spots and will come here more often when I'm around the area. If you haven't already you need to try food at this spot!”
“We recently used Moonlight Pizza&Chicken’s catering service for our event, and everything exceeded our expectations! They prepared a wide variety of dishes, and every single item was fresh, flavorful, and absolutely delicious. I had tried their baklava before, which was amazing and one of the reasons I decided to use their catering and they definitely did not disappoint. The food was beautifully prepared, our guests loved it, and the service was professional and reliable. I highly recommend Moonlight Pizza & Chicken catering for anyone looking for delicious food and a stress free catering experience. Thank you for helping make our event so special!”
“I had a wonderful experience at Bon Tofu & Grill (Korean Cuisine) and was impressed by the quality of the food and service. The restaurant has a warm and welcoming atmosphere that makes you feel comfortable right away. The staff were friendly, attentive, and provided excellent service throughout the visit. The menu offered a great selection of authentic Korean dishes with plenty of delicious options. The tofu dishes were flavorful, fresh, and prepared with great attention to detail. I also enjoyed the grilled items, which had amazing taste and perfectly balanced seasoning. Every dish was served hot and beautifully presented. The portions were generous, and the quality of the ingredients was noticeable in every bite. The restaurant was clean, organized, and had a pleasant dining environment. The staff were helpful when explaining menu choices and recommending popular dishes. I appreciated the authentic flavors and traditional Korean cooking style. The service was efficient while still allowing us to enjoy a relaxed meal. It is clear that the chefs put care and passion into preparing each dish. The combination of great food, friendly hospitality, and a comfortable atmosphere made the experience memorable. I enjoyed trying different dishes and discovering new flavors. This is a great place for both Korean food lovers and anyone wanting to try something new. I would definitely return to explore more items from the menu.

Overall, this restaurant offers delicious food, excellent service, and a welcoming environment that makes every visit enjoyable. I look forward to coming back again.”
“Marco is a phenomenal asset to the Paderia team! I recently started visiting this location, and I am beyond impressed. The service is outstanding, the drinks are delicious, and the cookies are absolutely amazing. Every visit has been a great experience thanks to Marco and his incredible staff, Mikayla and Jaydin.
They are all friendly, welcoming, and clearly take pride in providing excellent customer service. It’s refreshing to see a team that truly cares about the customer experience. I will definitely continue coming back and recommending this location to others!”

“Fresh, healthy food with a super quick turnaround 🙌 The staff is genuinely friendly and the whole place is spotless every time I come in. You can tell they really care about both the quality of the food and the customer experience. Definitely a go-to when I want something clean, fast, and satisfying.”
“You want that classic diner feel with great service and food to match? Papa Zs is the place my friend. In my youth it was the place to go when I was hungover with friends. Now it’s a place where I go with the family. I absolutely love this place!
Should you go to Papa Zs? Hell yah dude!”
“One if the best Pho's in the area hands down. The broth is VERY hot which i love. Ive had the chicken, beef, and shrimp pho and all are consistenly good. The noodles are firmer than most places but it works well since the soup is very hot and the noodles don't turn to mush.”
“Im here from norcal for training. Was craving some chow mein somewhere close by, gave this place a chance and it does not disappoint!! Huge servings with quick service even though it was lined up to the door. I got the combo 3 with house special, orange chicken, rice and chow mein, and cream cheese ragoons. 10/10 recommend. I'll be thinking of this place for a long time”

“This place NEVER disappoints. Every other pizza shop is a complete rip off and pales in comparison to the quality and price of this establishment. The pizza always comes out commercial ready, and I mean picturesque without sacrificing the taste. The ingredients are always fresh and their pies show. Do not believe me, try it for yourself.”
“Ugh.... First the driver delivers half of our order with half of someone else's order. We ordered 2 small pizzas, large chicken caesar salad and 2 large meatballs. We received our two pizzas with someone else's small pizza and mozzarella sticks. We called the store, told them what happened. The other lady missing her food had already called. So they will send a salad and meatballs (and yes, we offered to pay for the extra pizza and mozzarella sticks). 45 minutes later the salad arrives with NO dressing. And 8 tiny meatballs... Bummer!!! PS: We still love you FCP!”
“wow so glad i found this place from ig! it is like a candy store for an adult with great taste! I didnt know portuguese food was so amazing until here, theyve got everything and i carried a bunch of stuff like egg tarts, olive oils and sardines with me. they even have frozen fresh sardines from portugal! you will be amazed!”
“They have the best Canh Chu Ca! Really really. My family has been going for years. We crave it. When we tried to go on a Tuesday and they were closed we went elsewhere but it just wasn't as good. Mirada cooks the fish so that it is still so succulent. The flavor of the broth is perfectly balanced and tart. Please give this place a try for healthy Vietnamese food.”
“There is a sublime, almost religious satisfaction in sitting down in front of a live fire with a plate of raw, heavily marbled beef and a freezing cold beer. It’s an interactive theater of fat, smoke, and instinct. And if you want to experience this ritual at its absolute peak, you don't look for white tablecloths or corporate steakhouse polish. You look for a place that feels a bit tucked away, cozy, and smells instantly like caramelized soy, rendered fat, and sweet wood charcoal the second you open the door.
This is world-class Yakiniku.
You start with the yukke—the raw beef tartare. In lesser hands, raw beef can be a texture game with no payoff. Here? It’s seasoned with precision, rich, clean, and spiked with an egg yolk that ties the whole beautiful mess together. It’s a declaration of intent: we know meat, and we know how to treat it.
Then, the main event. Plates of A5 Wagyu, Kobe outside skirt, and prime beef tongue arrive, sliced with the kind of geometric reverence usually reserved for fine tailoring. The marbling on the Wagyu doesn't even look real; it looks like a geological map of some frozen, beautiful landscape.
You drop a piece onto the grill. It hisses. The fat hits the element, flares up, and perfumes the air. You don't leave it on long—just enough to get a quick sear, a bit of char, while keeping the inside beautifully rare. You dip it in the tare, put it in your mouth, and it simply ceases to exist as a solid. It melts. It’s an absolute explosion of umami that makes you want to close your eyes and laugh out loud at how absurdly good it is.
Even the sides here aren't an afterthought. The kimchi fried rice has that deep, fermented funk and spicy kick that cuts right through the luxurious weight of the beef, waking up your palate just in time for the next round of short rib.
It’s not a cheap night out, and it shouldn't be. This is a celebration of the animal, handled by people who deeply respect the craft, served in an atmosphere that strips away all the pretentious nonsense of high-end dining and leaves you with what matters: incredible food, good company, and the smoke in your hair. It is, quite simply, perfection.”
“I recommend this sizzlers in Moreno Valley! Frida helped us out and was quick, friendly and efficient. Thank you so much Frida 😊”

“Dex coffee is such a cute coffee shop! I stopped in to try this place and the manager was so kind and helpful in explaining the menu items and the recommended drinks. I ordered the orange matcha einspanner and it was so good! I will definitely be back. I also really enjoyed the atmosphere, music, and aesthetic! Definitely give this place a try.”
“I got a few slices standard pep and cheese which was really good then I got a slice of a deep dish which was a Hawaiian style. Which is normally my fav, but it was just majorly of bread it needs more cheese and meat. I don’t think this was one of my fav places guess they try to be too fancy for me. Salad was good but this place is pricey.”
“The place is located in a corner of a strip mall. There was only one table to sit and it was full. I think this is just order and go type of deal. The sticky rice was delicious and flavorful with the toppings. Mixture of sweet from sausage and savory. Lychee was a perfect combo to wash all of that down.”
“My friends and I tried this place for the first time and everything was SO delicious! We started with the cesar salad, and it was one of the best I've ever had.
We tried the branzino, and we loved the lemony sauce that complemented both the fish and side of brocolini!
The pork jowl dish was so tender and packed full of flavor, and it came with lettuce that made each bite refreshing.
We also got the miso carbonara which was creamy, perfectly seasoned yet not too heavy.
Service was very nice and fast, so overall we had an amazing dinner!”
“The Phuket Thai tea and the Bangkok Bliss (butterfly pea tea) were very good! Personally I think the coconut foam would benefit if it was slightly saltier.
Be ware that there's no place to dine in here as it's just a shared kitchen to pick up food from only.”
“Atmosphere was vibrant and lively, even with many tables around us. The food was great and the service was even better. Chloe did a great job checking in on us and making sure we got all of our order. The best part was the complimentary pandan waffles they give you at the end!”
“Absolutely loved this place! The Turkish breakfast platter was amazing, everything was so fresh, flavorful, and delicious. The restaurant has such a warm, homey feeling, and the owners were genuinely so kind and welcoming. You can really feel the love and hospitality in everything they do. Definitely a spot I’ll be coming back to next time I’m in California ❤”
