Cafe Patio Korean - Chinese Cuisine

We love this place has been our meet up place and they have all the comfort food and drinks. They have happy hours sadly not on Fri or Saturday but. We love the food, our fav would have to be the army stew, the snacks and the half and half noodles dish. Their fruit tea is so good, like you would get from a good boba shop.

Cafe Patio is a beautiful hidden gem. Honestly, it doesn’t even look like it belongs in the area. It’s like a spaceship ripped this restaurant off of some beachfront and relocated it next to downtown Fullerton.

The food is delicious. My friends and I are crazy about the jjajangmyeon. It’s the best jjajangmyeon I’ve ever had. Most other things are good too. The chewiness of the noodles are perfect and addicting. Tangsuyuk is good too. I also liked the honey walnut shrimp and the omurice.

The drinks are pretty good and very affordable considering prices for alcohol nowadays. You can get an individual soju cocktail for less than $10. I do have one thing to complain about. I came here once close to midnight on a Saturday on a bar crawl to enjoy some soju cocktails. When we tried to order soju cocktails, the staff told us that “we can’t make them because the lady who makes the soju cocktail went home.” …Isn’t that insane? You’re telling me in your entire restaurant only 1 lady knows how to make soju cocktails? Not “sorry, the kitchen is closed.” Not “sorry, we’re out of ingredients.” It was “sorry, the only person who knows how to make them went home.” That’s ludicrous! It’s not like I asked for a Beef Wellington. Even drunk college students can throw together a soju cocktail.

But that was a one time thing. Just really stuck with me because it was so ridiculous that I couldn’t forget and I needed to get it off my chest. There needs to be some kind of cross training between the staff. Other than that, service is usually friendly and attentive. Food is delicious. I just wouldn’t count on this place as a drinking spot for late night.

Such great hospitality! Warm, festive atmosphere and packed at 9pm at night. We took Jenny’s recommendations and we’re SO glad we did, everything was delicious.

Good vibe for late night meal and drink.

I've been going here for a long time now. It's a staple for Korean bar food and I love their happy hour (which I think the updated time is from 4-7 everyday). This time was told to try the stir fried gizzard and WOW did not disappoint! I didn't know it was served a more traditional way with small cut up rice cakes. So delicious, so yummy.

Overall 4/5. They were able to accommodate us with a party of 20. Food is delicious and tastes authentic. Recommend the roasted pork belly, kimchi rice, orange chicken, military stew. Service is quality, very kind. Atmosphere could be better, no music outside so it was kinda lame. We had to be seated outside for such a large group, not much heaters outside but not too bad. Attached updated menu with prices. Small parking lot in front, bigger lot near it. The lots can get filled. Very accommodating staff, will come back.

Let me start by telling you that the atmosphere is really good at this place, the serve sodju and many other drinks, the prices are very affordable and the serving portions are big, the red chili oil dumplings are exceptionally delicious, however I cannot say the same about their military soup, the broth it self is 8.5 out of 10 the problem is the spam that they used, it tasted so much like swine, not a good cooked pork meat but the smell and the flavor wasn’t pleasant at all, and looks like they were short staff as we had to wait long enough before asking for more napkins. I might try this place in the future and give it a chance with a different dish (because of their dumplings) but
