“I want to take this time to applaud & complement 2 things. First I want to acknowledge Minnie, the manager in charged during my visit. She was very polite, warm & professional. She made sure my coffee is fresh & super attentive. Also the crews, David & Mari, they were very attentive & polite. Second, the place was very clean & cozy. They did a good job keeping the place well. I had a wonderful lunch here. God bless you all !”

“My second time visiting this great establishment. Once again, the pizza and all that they serve is ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS!!! I had some caprese , burata, Fior Di Latte and the Vespa Pizza along with a Limonata Rosa. Our Service Yadira was amazing and very attentive. She was very helpful with any questions we had. Thank you Yadira and all the staff at Fuoco. Definitely my favorite Pizza!!! See you soon!”
Steak House • $$$
“Enjoyable place for a special occasion dinner experience. Mushroom appetizer was amazing. Seafood platter was good but not anywhere near the mushroom. I won't bother with the ribeye next time, it was good but it was lacking seasoning and any flavor. The prime rib was fantastic. Quite possibly the best prime rib I have ever tasted. The horseradish is somewhat like a sweetned heavy whipped cream with just enough spice to offset the sweet to make it work amazingly well with the perfectly salty au-jus. Creamed corn was really good as well. I would prefer to sit indoors next trip.”

“The food is always great, and on Tuesdays they have 1/2 off a second entree when you buy the first. I personally love their salad so much that I would go there just for that alone, and im not really a salad person. Service is always phenomenal and the vibes are nice. I do wish they had the buckler non alcoholic drink that's on the menu, but they necer seem to have it. Highly recommend this place.”

“🔥🔥 🔥 REMON, YOU HAVE CHANGED THE GAME!!! 💥💥 💥 MIND-BLOWN 🤯 ? … ✅ ✅✅ I’m sooo in awe of the experience I just had at his restaurant, literally minutes ago. He literally CURED ME with one of THE MOST AROMATIC, FLAVORFUL, & DISHES EVER! Tas2Go… has REDEFINED: … comfort food, … fast food, … authenticity, … wholesomeness, … small business, … deliciousness, … high quality ingredients, … passion-inspired dishes, & … start-up exponential growth! (and growing) This is one of those foodie experiences you just have to have to say that you lived!!! My senses are have been in high alert since I first bit into my hawawshi! It’s like haunting 👻 me how immediate my senses were infused with a “ratatouille” ✨of flavors and aromas! As I was driving away, I debated turning back for seconds and still am as we’re quickly approaching closing time in 52 minutes and counting!!!! Will definitely be back (as I cringe thinking this is my newest addiction and inevitably where all my money will go)! Well done, Remon! Well done! 🏆”

“Came with a friend as a play date with our kids my and we had so much food we couldn’t finish! Got the dooki combo. The ddukbokki was served on a heating dish so it would stay hot throughout the meal. My kids devoured the dooki rice and cheese balls. The chicken was the sleeper hit though... So crispy and piping hot and perfectly seasoned.”
Ramen • $$

It’s tucked away in an old house, giving it a unique charm that makes it feel more like visiting a friend’s living room than a coffee shop. Comfortable seating, a relaxing atmosphere, and great coffee make this one of those hidden gems that’s worth going”

“Saw on social media and wanted to see for myself. Yep, interesting how they turned a home into a business. Smart idea to pay the mortgage itself. I'm a money person so this gave me some ideas lol.

I'm from Ohio, and the closest we have is Five Guys, and this blows them out of the water! My wife is the local, so I followed her lead and had burgers and fries animal style! Everything was DELICIOUS! Thanks to everyone at the location! Everyone was very genuinely cheerful and nice! (went through at 11:00am, Sep 4th 2023)”

“My first bar & grill with a ribeye. AND they’re surprisingly delish! With a scoop of garlic butter and a crap load of sautéd mushroom on top. Had to split the medium rare 16 oz cuz they’re so fricking generous on the 2 sides! I chose steam veggies (nothing exciting) and the clam chowder (unfortunately, its a meh). First time to enjoy a steak while watching a dodgers and stanley cup game. And the atmosphere is different yet enjoyable. I’d definitely be back. Probably going to try their prime ribs…”

“I have always enjoyed your Cinnamon coffeecake from 7-11..reminds me of high school..it was fresh as always but I was very disappointed yesterday, it had no cinnamon crumble topping..and the size is much smaller”
Mexican • $
“There is definitely the appeal for the convenience of a 24-hour drive-thru for Mexican food place, no question about it. You can rest easy knowing a carne asada burrito is only car ride away any time of day or night. However, the food is okay, not necessarily great, the Supreme fries we're not as superlative as it could be. And by the way It is solely a drive-thru, no place to dine in so you have to be ready to eat your emergency 3am fish tacos maybe in your car. But the neon sign is cool.”
Fast Food • $
“I had a great experience at this location late last night. The gal (Valerie) who patiently waited while I decided what I wanted was extremely kind in guiding Me through how the small nachos are no longer on their menu and then when I pulled up to pay and get My order, the young gentleman (Juan) was also very professional in the process. Both employees were overall great that I had to get their names so that they can inspire the rest of our younger adults in the food and beverage industry. Keep up the good work!”
Fast Food • $
“We leave in Fullerton and there is McDonald branch instead of going there we drive this branch to have a good breakfast, cause the crews working here are nice and the coffee they served is fresh , I appreciate the way they served us with good smiling face like Maria and Michael that I remember their names … I highly recommend to my friends to have their meal in this branch .. all the staff are nice and place are in order and clean”
Fast Food • $
“I never thought I would give a Jack in the Box 5 stars but here we are. My absolute favorite thing about this store is that they ALWAYS will make the tacos well-done if you ask for it. I don’t think I’ve ever had a nasty taco from here because they honor that request. I cannot say that about other Jack in the Box locations. It has been consistent for years.
Please never change 😭”

“Love this place! Great for a late night meal! We ordered the 1/2 and 1/2 noodles, spicy garlic tofu, chili oil wontons, and kimchi pancake! Every plate was delicious and would recommend giving a try!”
Takeout Restaurants
Vietnamese • $
“The food is amazing, portions are large, and prices are very fair. The $16.95 short rib pho comes with two huge short rib bones and unlimited noodles! Such a good deal. My favorite was honestly the lomo saltado, the fries were so crisp and the filet was so tender with a delicious, smoky wok fire flavor. The spring crunch slaw is a steal at $6.95, it’s a ton of slaw for such a cheap price and the peanut butter/chili oil dressing is bomb. It was pretty busy when I went, but they brought out the food amazingly fast for how big of a group was seated ahead of me. Definitely recommend this spot.”

I will definitely come here again.”

Coffee Shops • $
“Solid calm coffee spot with large tables, outlets, and a smaller crowd than other cafes in the Fullerton area. This is a great option if you are looking for a location that is not super busy on a weekday. They have both indoor and outdoor seating. I stopped by on a Monday from 2pm-5pm. It was quiet and there were plenty of seats open. Ordered the Coconut Top Latte and a Chorizo Cheddar Croissant. The latte had a moderate coffee flavor, but the coconut foam could have been stronger. The croissant was delicious, buttery, and flaky, though it could have used a bit more chorizo inside. Bathrooms were clean and there is street parking available. I also noticed they have high chairs available which is a nice touch for families.”

The place was clean, the atmosphere was casual and was greeted promptly.
I ordered the Turkey Omelet which was recommended by Shorty himself. Very nice guy. Good recommendation. It was very good. The hash browns were cooked perfectly as well.
My Google maps said they are known for their breakfast burritos. I'll have to try that next time I visit Shorty'z.
They are also Hockey fans@
Thanks for good food and good service! I'll be back.”

“I ordered a classic burger with a side of fries, and it was absolutely delicious. The burger patty was juicy, flavorful, and cooked to perfection. Fresh lettuce, tomatoes, onions, and melted cheese added a wonderful combination of taste and texture. The bun was soft and fresh, holding all the ingredients together perfectly. The fries were crispy, golden, and seasoned just right, making them an excellent addition to the meal.
The portion size was generous, and the presentation was attractive. The restaurant maintained excellent cleanliness standards, which enhanced the overall dining experience. The prices were reasonable and provided great value for the quality of food served.”

Still not sure how to cut down the large pieces of chicken in the broth with chopsticks, but that’ll be for my second visit.”

I love the indoor-outdoor feeling and the colorful decorations throughout that really exude playful (lol) and childlike. The shipping container is a really cute aesthetic and I appreciate how there was still an outlet inside.”

So glad we did. 2 hungry teenage boys with us we filled up on various tacos and chips and guacamole. Everything was beyond delicious and filling.

We had some miso soup, seaweed salad, and an assortment of hand rolls. The soup was solid and the seaweed salad was delicious - honestly one of our favorite parts of the meal. The rolls were all very good; the fish was fresh, and each roll highlighted the taste of the fish without overwhelming it with other sauces and flavors. The standout was the sea bream hand roll that they were serving today, which was INCREDIBLE. Next time, I may just order as many of those as possible!”

“I eat here a couple times a week as it’s just down the street from my office. Although we have several great options in Downtown Fullerton, Mickey’s is, hands down, my go to. Their food is always on point. Their service is second to none and their prices are great as well. I’ve had it all. Their Burger, their steak, ribs, fish & chips, it’s all wonderful. Irish Eggrolls and Deviled Eggs are crazy good! 🤯And of course, they have all the spirits one would need to enjoy. If you haven’t been to Mickey’s, I’d say you’re missing out. Which is fine, more for me. 🤣”

I look forward to coming back and trying other dishes.”

The beer selection was great, with plenty of well-crafted options to choose from, and the food was just as impressive tasty, hearty, and perfect for pairing with drinks. The atmosphere was lively, welcoming, and great for hanging out with friends or catching a game. The staff were friendly, attentive, and made sure everything ran smoothly even when busy. Overall, a fantastic spot for good drinks, good food, and great vibes I highly recommend it and will definitely be back!”

Seafood • $$
“The interior is decorated with a nice fish and ocean theme, while still showing the underlying framework from when it was an Italian restaurant, which gives it a unique character.
The food was excellent. I had the carne asada plate, and my wife ordered the filet of pescado—both were flavorful and well-prepared.
We also appreciated the drink service. They serve large (about 32 oz) beverages, so we didn’t have to wait for refills.
The only downsides were the atmosphere—it was quite warm inside, and the background music (YouTube) was a bit loud, which made conversation harder than it should be.
Overall, great food and service, with a few comfort issues that, if improved, would really elevate the experience.”

“I had gotten the chicken ginseng soup and although the wait was a bit long, it was definitely worth the wait. They packaged up the food so well and gave side dishes such as rice, kimchi, spicy fish cake and etc.The soup was a life changing experience, it was like soothing to my core and left me feeling fulfilled. My emotions were calm after eating the soup. In the soup. There was a whole small chicken and stuffed with dates, and rice. The rice inside the chicken became almost creamy like congee and was the star of the show, to me. The chicken was tender and light on my stomach and the side dishes paired well with the entire meal. I look forward to coming back to this restaurant and trying more dishes.”

“This is a long overdue review. We go here at least once a month. Although we get the same thing every time. There has ever only been one minor hiccup, but the waitresses remedied that quickly. It can get quite busy during dinner time, and there are no reservations ahead of time.
You will get consistent and good quality food every single time. Lunch is cheaper than dinner. Don't expect to have a conversation with the staff here. It's wham bam here's your food.”

“Wait is only a few mins if you go in between 2-3pm.
Otherwise short wait, food is adequate and tasty for a buffet.
Many options, Mongolian amd also hot pot for an extra $5.
Service is adequate as well, they were attentive in all aspects of dish pick up and refill of drinks.
Weekend prices are just perfect, not expensive and not cheap, you do get duck, crabs legs, steak, oyster, crawfish, veggies, and all The hot pot essentials for your personal meal along with a sauce bar for flavoe enhancements to your soup, freash fruits and even a cup of ice cream included for this price.”

“This is such a beautiful little gem of a place. The large windows and unique architecture of the old building gives the place character and charm. The decor was simple but appealing and brought a clean low stress feel which is not often felt in similar restaurants. The food was truly amazing and the 5 dollar margaritas on Wednesday were truly fantastic. The prickly pear and the cucumber margaritas….even the house margarita was very pleasant. However, the tacos chicken tinga and the tequila fajitas were the best I have ever had. Seriously, we will be back.”

““Wow” Monday I went to restaurant and pre-ordered 20 meals for my guests who were going to be celebrated by daughters 2 year birthday. Mayra was great, friendly & professional but there was a misunderstanding on the date. Which of course I feel terrible about! But they accommodated my order for the correct date! Everyone enjoyed the food. Especially the bass fish with vegetables and rice plate! Fancy for 12.00. Large portions too!”

“I'm going to be 100% honest. The service is fantastic. The chicken is good but without their special sauce it would taste like the other chicken places. Their Texas toast is only toasted on one side which makes the bite mushy. For me their coleslaw needs to be blended more. The fries are so so. This is just my own opinion.”

“I just had my first In-N-Out at this location and it was one of the best burger experiences I've had. They were so excited to treat a first timer and gave me some stickers! I'm from Ohio, and the closest we have is Five Guys, and this blows them out of the water! My wife is the local, so I followed her lead and had burgers and fries animal style! Everything was DELICIOUS! Thanks to everyone at the location! Everyone was very genuinely cheerful and nice! (went through at 11:00am, Sep 4th 2023)”

“The food is amazing, portions are large, and prices are very fair. The $16.95 short rib pho comes with two huge short rib bones and unlimited noodles! Such a good deal. My favorite was honestly the lomo saltado, the fries were so crisp and the filet was so tender with a delicious, smoky wok fire flavor. The spring crunch slaw is a steal at $6.95, it’s a ton of slaw for such a cheap price and the peanut butter/chili oil dressing is bomb. It was pretty busy when I went, but they brought out the food amazingly fast for how big of a group was seated ahead of me. Definitely recommend this spot.”

“Came with a friend as a play date with our kids my and we had so much food we couldn’t finish! Got the dooki combo. The ddukbokki was served on a heating dish so it would stay hot throughout the meal. My kids devoured the dooki rice and cheese balls. The chicken was the sleeper hit though... So crispy and piping hot and perfectly seasoned.”

“Great service, AMAZING FOOD. As a mexican, I can say with full confidence they had the best green chilaquiles I've ever had. I took them to go and ate them when I got home 30 min later. Still the best thing ever. I can't imagine if I ate them warm and fresh inside the restaurant. Also, the horchata was SOOOO good. It's made fresh by one of the ladies in the restaurant. I've never had horchata made with banana before and I feel like my life is changed LOL. I believe the restaurant is woman owned. Dude was cooking our stuff fresh in the back too so it took a little while to get the food but worth the wait. We ended up going back the next day. Good prices.”

“We had a fantastic lunch here today! This place has a cool and relaxing atmosphere, and the guy behind the sushi counter took great care of us. We had some miso soup, seaweed salad, and an assortment of hand rolls. The soup was solid and the seaweed salad was delicious - honestly one of our favorite parts of the meal. The rolls were all very good; the fish was fresh, and each roll highlighted the taste of the fish without overwhelming it with other sauces and flavors. The standout was the sea bream hand roll that they were serving today, which was INCREDIBLE. Next time, I may just order as many of those as possible!”
Korean
“A hidden gem in a Korean market in Fullerton. They serve up fresh poke salads, Korean rice bowls and sushi for pretty cheap! I think nothing was over $15 and everything came with a mini udon. Got the crunchy poke salad which was so vibrant and colorful. Super fresh ingredients. The salmon and tuna was soooo tasty. Also tried the spicy pork bulgogi cupbap which I could probably eat daily and never tire of it. Also got the Hawaiian shrimp roll which my kid loved.
Highly recommend a visit!”

He literally CURED ME with one of THE MOST AROMATIC, FLAVORFUL, & DISHES EVER! Tas2Go… has REDEFINED: … comfort food, … fast food, … authenticity, … wholesomeness, … small business, … deliciousness, … high quality ingredients, … passion-inspired dishes, & … start-up exponential growth! (and growing) This is one of those foodie experiences you just have to have to say that you lived!!! My senses are have been in high alert since I first bit into my hawawshi! It’s like haunting 👻 me how immediate my senses were infused with a “ratatouille” ✨of flavors and aromas! As I was driving away, I debated turning back for seconds and still am as we’re quickly approaching closing time in 52 minutes and counting!!!! Will definitely be back (as I cringe thinking this is my newest addiction and inevitably where all my money will go)! Well done, Remon! Well done! 🏆”
