“This place is popular but I was able to show up and get seated without a reservation. It was a 10-20 minute wait on a Friday evening. I thought this place was going to be overhyped but in my opinion, it lived up to the hype! Our server was amazing, he was knowledgeable and had amazing recommendations based on our taste. I ordered the "Saltado" Shaken Fries and it was soo delicious! the meat was tender and the aji sauce was incredible and complemented the food. The ambiance was great and lively, definitely a nice spot to go with friends or a date :)“
“This humble takeout eatery serves more authentic Turkish coffee than any Mediterranean restaurants I've found in SoCal. The coffee so thick it looks like mud at the bottom of your cup---PERFECTIONThe establishment has a talent for making bread. The crust of our pizza was soft and chewy on the inside while light and crispy on the outside. That said, the Hawaiian pizza was topped with canned pineapple (making it overly sweet) while the accompanied ham seemed to have been packaged meat and, therefore, a bit underwhelming in taste. Even so, the crust was sovery good that I'm willing to come back to try other pizzas on the menu“
“7 Leaves cafe combined with Crema Cafe? Just the killer combo. All of the drinks, varying from the House Coffee to the Herbal Tea from 7 leaves, and combining it with Truffle Mushroom Omelettes all the way through to Beef stew! The food was DELIGHTFUL, and just one bite can make your insides melt. Every bite you take, you know that the chef made it from the heart. The drinks are also AMAZING. The drinks are always refreshing, satisfying your thirst with flavor. With each sip, you can taste the freshness in the drink. The naturalness make the drink pop with flavor.The waiters and cashiers are VERY kind, helping you with almost anything you need!The atmosphere of Artisan is very peaceful and tranquil, with greenery flourishing around the building. The outdoor seating is a bonus! Umbrellas and trees provide shade in the outdoor seating, with speakers playing easy going music while you are enjoying your meal! The moment you step inside the store, an amazing aroma floats around the room, combining many different dishes and drinks! The interior of the store is a easy navigating place. Plenty of room to sit at and is an amazing place to study! The restroom are very clean, with a nice aroma around the restroom. Not a smell you usually expect to see in a restroom!I totally recommend Artisan. If you are looking for somewhere to hang out, study, or just have a good brunch, this is the place to go! It is a hidden gem barely noticeable, but once found, is an amazing treat!“

“This was my first time. I was near the neighborhood and was looking for restaurant recommendations. I also saw it in Rock Star Eater’s channel. I had the lunch special. The food was delicious. I loved the lentil soup, the rice and the red sauce. The bread was freshly made. Will definitely go again, I need to try other dishes.“
“So bomb!!! The food is so delicious and you don’t even have to drive to Garden Grove for it. They do get busy though so you might have to wait. I think it’s a great place with good portions and reasonable pricing. I’d love to eat here everyday.“

“I really like how the owner represents the vegan food and lifestyle to people. She is kind and elated, and she exudes the type of happiness that I rarely see people express in public. The pho tastes great for a non-vegan like me, and I like the small garden outside!“
“I have never been disappointed after eating here. This has become my go to for classic American diner food over the past year. The portion sizes are perfect, the prices are more than fair, and the staff is always friendly and quick. After trying nearly their whole breakfast menu I would recommend their chili cheese omelette or their pancakes.“
“Pur Bowls definitely became one of my new fav acai spots in the OC area! We came here on a whim while looking for something light to eat before dinner.I was really impressed by how big of a variety they had, when it came to bases, fruits, nut butters, etc... luckily they had a create your own option! We got a 16 oz to share. I was able to try the acai and pur coco (aka blue coconut) bases and both were absolutely delicious and refreshing. They had 4 types of chia puddings to choose from (vanilla, matcha, cocoa, and turmeric cinnamon). We went for the vanilla and it was light and sweet!Toppings are unlimited so the creations you can make are limitless. The space is small and quaint, but has ample seating available for smaller groups.“
“My absolute favorite spot for a comforting and home-cooked meal. Not only is their food amazing, but their service is unmatched. The lady that works there always offers water despite being a grab-and-go place, and she always has a smile on her face. The chicken is so juicy and tender, and it's all the more fun to eat with the side dishes. The presentation is unmatched. You can feel all the time and effort the owner puts into each dish. If I could eat here everyday, I would.My only complaint is that they need to extend their hours! I used to drop by after getting out of school, but with a new schedule, I've found it difficult to find time nowadays. Oftentimes, they're only open for lunch hours.“
“This place is amazing. The food is absolutely unique but not too crazy. I am vegetarian and tried their vegetarian option and their standard egg and cheese and both were amazing. The people are always very nice! The atmosphere is so cute and you can have your food and relax not feel rushed. Absolutely would recommend a TOP brunch spot for me“
“My favorite place to get sugarcane juice! I always get the mia quat, which is the OG of sugarcane juice. I used to get that at a different place when I was younger, but Mia Juicery is convenient for me now. I haven't tried the other concoctions, only because I like the traditional drink. The workers are always nice, friendly, and mellow. It's small inside with limited seating. It's not really a hangout place, just grab and go.“
“How can this coffee place have a long line!!! The coffee is the best. Blows Dutch Bros, Starbucks and Peet's away. It is coffee authentic Italian coffee. They are pleasant and knowledgeable and I did a taste test blind and chose this coffee every time! I wish I knew the person that took my order. She was so nice and gave me all the info I asked! Went to the store on Talbert and Newhope! Try it out. You will NOT be disappointed!!!!“
“It is a nice place, good flavor and very clean, very delicious sauces.Parking: Siesta is full, the parking lot can be parked in front across the street, it's not far away, it's good for exercise.Kid-friendliness: The vanqiutas outside are ideal for family diningWheelchair accessibility: If you have it“
“Big communal seating for big parties makes this place really popular for group gatherings. Ordering via a tablet is excellent, everyone got what they wanted and the sauces are good too. The staff is super friendly and we didn't feel rushed either. Definitely will be coming back for more next time.“
“My daughter and I came here after a trip to the beach. It was incredibly clean and loved the decorations on the walls. The Boba we ordered was delicious. The iced coffee I got hit the spot. Fast and friendly service with a relaxing vibe that i enjoyed.“
“Really great drinks. Misty & cloud is my favorite and I always get half sweet less ice. Everything else is really good too! I believe they also do catering. The pricing is great — definitely cheaper than most boba places now. I always try and get it when I’m in the area!“
“If I go to the South Coast Plaza, I'm also going to Philly's Best. They have the best cheesesteak on the West Coast IMO. My go to is the Classic Cheesesteak with raw onions and I get the hot peppers on the side. I also get half onion rings and half fries. The guys that work there are very nice and accommodating. The restaurant is clean. What surprised me today is they switched from Wise potato chips to Herrs. I am a Jersey girl, I was expecting Wise because I wanted the Garlic and Onion chips. I know Herrs is a Philly brand and just as good. They didn't have Peanut Chews either. It wasn't a big deal because I was really there for the cheesesteak which did not disappoint. I know they have a cheesesteak joint in K-Town, which I do visit every now and then because they are closer to me, but they always leave me wishing it was Philly's Best!“
“this is my first time coming here. my friend wanted to eat breakfast before our field trip because we didn't have to go to zero period hurray! she asked if i wanted to eat breakfast but i lowkey didn't but i'm a pushover so i said yes. then she asked breakfast burritos okay? And i thought about sabrosada because that's the only breakfast burrito place i knew and i was like sure. But then she said glee's donuts and burgers and i have never had this place, and i have never supported a donut shop where i didn't know the owner but i still said yes because i should try new things. we met up outside at the parking lot around 7:20am but she was there since 7:00am so i felt bad. then we went in and ordered. She wasn't that hungry and neither was i so we ordered a chicken breakfast burrito and just split it. The food came out relatively quick and we just talked about stuff i don't even remember while we waited. We got the food and she told me to put salsa on. I was scared it was spicy and she assured me it wasn't but it lowkey was but i wasn't going to tell her i thought it was spicy because that is embarrassing so i sucked it up. overall, the burrito was really good and creamy. i loved the chicken and cheese wow. but i lowkey hated the eggs. they tasted like those liquid eggs that come in the carton and i also hate egg yolks. but the salsa helped me forget about the taste of the egg yolks. i ran out of the salsa towards the end, and i was a bit lazy to grab more salsa, so i just ate around the egg yolks towards the end. now, i realize that i could've just ordered egg whites for an extra fee. next time i come back i would probably do that. overall, a great place for breakfast burritos!!! my friend and i just talked about random stuff the entire time but i found out she is poorphobic wow. then we just talked and pushed our luck until it was 7:50am. the bus left at 8:00am and then we finally left. she wanted to pick me up from the church to go to the campus where it was closer but i assured her i would make it in time. i walked over and she was waiting for me with another girl and a boy and i thought the guy was my friend but as i walked closer i realized it was my opp. i turned the other way and walked off without them which must've looked awkward af but i played it off as me going to the trash can wow. we walked to the bus and i found my actual guy friend and then we went to occ. we listened to a real estate agent guy and an engineering dude and wow what a great way to skip school. on the bus ride, i sat by myself and listened to my audiobook but all i could think about was the burrito! AMAZING! 4.5 stars!!!“
“The owner really cares about his establishment. He was there this evening coaching his new employees. I love his give back to the community, during covid and now his pay it forward to give you the opportunity to buy a meal for someone in need.“
“great service !! although the line is ALWAYS so long, the workers are always super nice and friendly - i always enjoy talking to them :) however, i haven't been able to find a drink that i really like yet i don't know what to order since i feel like a lot of people order off-menu“
“Love the croissants and donuts...Great staff!BUT THE STORE HOURS ARE A ULTIMATE FAILURE....I will never understand why this store can't get a consistent schedule, especially with a decent amount of staff as well as booming business!!??!!!It's very unprofessional and inconsiderate at this point! Gas isn't cheap and you have a Google page to inform store hours...so why does the owner not utilize it??“
“This place is so yummy ! The ice cream is rich and creamy. Very unique flavors. I loved their Cookie Monster flavor. So good ! The salted Oreo was good but a bit too sweet for me. My boyfriend loved the Cookie butter flavor. Overall a good find !“
“Staffs so kind and always be there when i need.nem nuong was perfect. However,My quang' broth not flavorful and the fish sauce of com tam so sweet. Coconut Coffee and seasalt coffee are good. This place for hang out with friends or family.“
“Been to this spot a few times now. Like it better than the OG spot because it's bigger and service overall is better. Definitely get the Banh Bro Chen as it's great for sharing. The Bun Bo Hue is pretty good here. I enjoyed it. It's not the best but overall gets the job done. Now the Mi Quang on the other hand was something that didn't hit with me at all. Maybe I wasn't feeling it that day but I wouldn't get it again. Overall food was great and service was fast and there is plenty of tables and seats!!! I'll be back for more Banh Beo Chen!!!“
“I don’t know what happened to other customers but I always have good experience with this shop. They always made good tasteful cake with beautiful decorations for me. My wedding cake was perfect, taste and look. Then later on I ordered burnaway BD cake for my friend and it was perfect too. They always responded to me on text or call. They are busy at the store sometimes I do need to wait to talk to them but it’s because there are other customers too.“
“Can you say "Kobe Beef"? Are you a carnivore? The meat quality here is excellent. If you are vegetarian you will not be disappointed. The purple basil is quite large, bean sprouts super fresh and crunchy. Hot pepper slices....yes please. Egg rolls? Get some!!!“
“So so good!! Make a reservation!!! Service was great, restaurant is large with lots of windows. Unique Viet fusion dishes. We wanted to try so much more!! The coffee and non alcoholic drinks were good, but not amazing. But the food is a different story!! Would come back to try the rest of the menu!“
