“吃台灣的平民美食，有回家的感覺。“

“If you love pho, this is the place to eat! Many flavors, i went with the P13. Pho with Rare Steak & Well-Done Brisket and the steak was soo good, then the brisket just added another level of flavor. Definitely will be back.
Wait was short and the staff was so friendly and prompt, never had an empty drink. Food came out reasonably fast and hot!“

“Even through storms does NT Noodles provide their delicious variety of dishes and noodles to us, where their passion can be tasted in their food, and their care in each dish set down by the cooks themselves. Their easygoing attitudes, clean and green atmosphere, and location provides a good stop for food during shopping!“

“​⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Akai Asian: A Must-Try 5-Star Experience!
​[Disclaimer: This review is brought to you by a self-made professional food critic reviewer!]
​From the moment I stepped into Akai Asian, I knew I was in for a treat. The warm, inviting ambiance and the sight of happy, cordial diners immediately set a fantastic mood. I felt genuinely welcomed by the staff, who guided me through their extensive menu—and wow, was I blown away by the selection!
​For my first visit, I ordered the Chicken Bento Box, and it was easily a 5-star dish. It was a well-balanced masterpiece!
​The box featured a delightful salad with corn, which was perfectly topped with a nice sesame seed oil dressing—it was incredibly savory and very tasty. It also included four delicious California rolls. Alongside these were some fried veggies and fried shrimp. They were very pleasant; not overwhelmingly greasy or heavy, but perfectly fried right to the bite. Lastly, the star was the delicious chicken served on top of fresh veggies and rice. Everything was perfectly prepared, showcasing the high quality and fresh flavors of Asian cuisine.
​Akai Asian is a delightful setting with stellar service and truly exceptional food. I highly recommend it!“

“Amazing vegan menu. 💕 definitely worth a visit. Will stop in next time we are in town.“

“Very good customer service and vibes I love the decorations and how clean it is. The ramen and potstickers were very filling and definitely worth trying. I keep coming back for the spicy tonkatsu ramen but the sushi was not very good especially for the price...

Another complaint I have is the chopsticks feel very cheap and hard to work with plus $2.50 for a can of coke isn't really something to look forward to with your meal

P.S. I'll definitely be back but I felt the need to give an honest review“

“Food was so yummy! Had the chicken pho and edamame.“

“Delicious! The guy working was SO friendly and very helpful. Jumped right in to help us out on our first time ordering.

Poke was great! Loved all the topping and mix in options and the fish tasted fresh. Very good. The avocado I got was weirdly hard and really not edible… couldn’t even chew it, but I’m guessing it was just a fluke avocado situation. (You know how avocados can be. 🤷🏻‍♀️) Sauces were thick and flavorful. Best poke spot I’ve found in the area. 😋

Bonus points for a nice outdoor seating (with umbrellas!) and also a great location close enough to grab it to-go and head out for a beach picnic.“

“We love Yanagi. Fabulous and fresh sushi, great service and there always seems to be a table for us. My tiny humans, age 10 and 7, love their sushi. At Yanagi, they are always well taken care of.“

“The green salad and fried shrimps lacked the taste, which sounded mediocre. However, the macaroni one and dumplings (I forgot the name) were okay, while the yakisoba was tenderly good. Even the service was excellent with a fantastic atmosphere. Loved the restaurant since it was good to visit, as I'd recommend it.“

“I’ve been going to 3 brothers since high school and that’s almost 17yrs ago. I’ve since moved out of state back in 2020 but every time I get back to Cali I always have to stop by. Their sweet and sour chicken dinner is always my go to and never disappoints. It’s also nice that the owner still remembers me.“

“Tasty Chicken - Fried And Original Style . Rice 🍚 Deliciousness . Sauces On Point . Great Service“

“My wife and I come here maybe at least once a month and maybe twice a month if we crave the chicken salad party platters. I would come here more often if they had a location closer to Cypress. I was sad to hear they closed the Long Beach location. I enjoy the food here and it is a fairly healthy place for a fast casual food experience.“

“Honestly expensive but I think it's a sharable portion size. I got Thai tea and a regular size poki bowl spent $20 but I couldn't even finish my bowl it's so much food. It all tasted delicious to me . Customer service is clearly not a top priority but you get your food quick .“

“Vegan review:

The food quality is really great. Tastes fresh and crunchy and its really good. I got the vegetable roll and it was good. Only reason for 4 stars is price. For what it is and where it is and how much was in the roll, especially it being only vegetables, it was quite expensive. I mean not too much but for the price a larger quality would be better.“

“The food is good but it is not worth the price. I got the pho combination which was 16 dollars. I would not mind the price but they are stingy with the meat. I would not bother coming back when there are so many other options that are worth the price of admission.“

“Was recommended to me by two people so decided to try it. It was busy for a mid-week evening. I quickly sat at the bar since most seating was full. I ordered a Spicy Tuna Handroll, Rainbow Roll, and the Spanish Mackerel. The price was definitely more than I usually pay but it was definitely fresh quality. The staff was nice and attentive. Would definitely stop by again and try some other items that caught my eye. Parking was not hard to find.“

“SO GOOD!!! I’m eating it as we speak but I couldn’t wait to give them a review! Delicious! Feels and looks fresh and healthy! Great flavors! Good amounts for reasonable prices! I’m so so happy I discovered this! Loved the ginger lime sauce!“

“Portion of food are more than the price value! The quality of ingredients was above the expectation taste very authentic Thai cuisine! You can't get wrong with restaurant. There was just 3 of us but we can't finish the whole servings. Tom Kha was our favorite second to that will be Pad Thai. It was a great meal!“

“The older Asian man who took our order was not friendly at all. (The first thought that entered my mind was that he was a racist) Upon entering the restaurant my friend and I greeted him twice he never did open his mouth and speak. It was our first time there so I had questions about what I wanted to order. He was very pushy and impolite rushing us even though we were the only customers in the restaurant. We should have turned around and walked out but we were tired so we ignored his rudeness. The rice was good but I wondered how it could be cooked to order when we got it right away.“

“Pick your base, protein and fresh veggies. Fresh, and Delish Yumminess! 😋“

“Great place to eat and tasty food“
