“FURAIBO GARDENA: I discovered just before to move to Cabo. I went everyday ( memorial WE) after this first visit. Food is divine, chicken wings are not to compare with the usual chicken wings, it is a delicacy. The first day we had an unbelievable friendly and attentive waitress, she knew all our nephews and nieces for 25 years. An exceptional person with rare qualities. I recommend this restaurant and as soon I have to be in LA I will. of course go every day I am in LA. Bravo for the chef, the people, the ambiance. I miss it every day.“

“Go to place in Gardena for the lunch and the dinner.“

“What a fantastic dining experience! We were so well taken care of, and the food was amazeballs! Definitely top of my list as my new favorite seafood restaurant. Elijah, the bartender was awesome and Katie went out of the way to make sure we had a lovely time. What an evening… I highly recommend this place.“

“My experience was very good and the food was delicious. I would defiently eat there again.“

“Authentic food imported from Spain, by Spaniards, and with a great staff of people helping run the place. We loved our visit and loaded up on baguettes, ham, wine, candy, and more! The paella is made fresh and we took home some portions, this place is a favorite and a gem!“

“I cannot say enough of the five star service Ernesto provided. We were waiting for the shuttle to take us to the airport. It was 10 mins late, then 15 mins late. I asked the gentleman at the front desk to inquire but he was not helpful at all. Just said he will be there. I expressed my concern that we had an international flight to catch. I was so frustrated by this front desk man's customer service I told my husband we should call an Uber. Meanwhile we already paid for the hotel shuttle. Ernesto overheard my frustration. Called the bus to find out it wouldn't be coming there was an issue. He refunded us for our shuttle we paid for and also paid for our Uber. It was Four Seasons customer service, over and beyond exceeded our expectations! You should be so lucky to have a person like Ernesto. The other gentleman needs to go back to learning customer service skills and hospitality! Go Ernesto!“

“5-star alert! My wife surprised me with this delicious Tunisian restaurant on Father’s Day! It was like an exotic trip to Mediterranean North Africa. The servers were good and the owner was super friendly and helpful! We had prawns, fish, lamb, cauliflowers, and the infamous Hand of Fatima. Everything was delicious, with unique flavors and beautifully presented. The sauces were so unique and flavorful, we had 3 orders of bread as we want to enjoy more of the flavors in every dish!“

“We enjoyed everything about our meal from start to finish.“

“Such a cozy spot with a fantastic vibe! The wine selection here is impressive, offering something for every taste. Whether you're a connoisseur or just looking to enjoy a glass, you’ll find the perfect pour. It's easily one of the best bars in Long Beach, with a relaxed, inviting atmosphere that makes it the ideal place to unwind. Highly recommend it for a laid-back evening with great wine and great company!“

“Overall a nice stay: friendly staff, nice updated facilities, free ♿️ valet👌-3 to 4 blocks from beach. Very expensive at $500 per night, used the 2 $10 free tickets at bar for 2 drinks and still owed $8.36. This was the host hotel and stayed 2 nights Fri/Sat July 22-23, 2022, with hamburger & soup in room, total $1100. T.“

“Heading to Boyle Heights to hangout with friends and my hunnis and I stumbled on this bar. The tacos were really good. They were a little pricey but I like trying new spots. I had a fried shrimp taco & grill shrimp taco. My hunnis got an asada taco and a fried shrimp taco as well. They even made me a virgin margarita. We had to park on the streets which could be a hassle but we were fortunate to get a close up spot. We stopped in there on a Friday afternoon and there wasn’t many folks in there. But it had a cool vibe. We will visit again!“

“Clean, cozy restaurant with a nice selection of food. Extensive happy hour menu and the sushi was very fresh and authentic. We just dropped by because we were looking for a place near our appointment. But it was good; I would go there again.“

“Very authentic looking Izakaya right in the middle of Torrance. Loved that the beer comes with frosted cold glasses and the atmosphere is super chill.

“Nice place for breakfast. Not to busy and service was great. A little pricey.“

“autentic italian restaurant !! délicius food... enjoi 😉“

“It is such a cozy and friendly environment. A great well maintained space. An easy laid back atmosphere.“

“I have been enjoying meals at Okane Umi since 2016. They have always been excellent in every category of service. The restaurant has had its share of ups and downs but I am happy with how strongly Okane Umi has powered up its menu and added some wonderfully flavorful genuine Japanese dishes. Im pleased they have reinforced their sushi, sashimi, chirashi offerings - I love this restaurant.“

“Went in for happy hour. Service was great and prices were well under what you would pay at other ramen establishments. The super spicy ramen was good could use a little more heat. I am not a sadistic hot spice eater so believe me when I say that it was good but notquite sneezing and sinus releiving.
Over all great experience for an up and coming area I will be headed back next week!“

“Loved the vibe and modern decor! Service was amazing, food was spectacular and drinks were delicious!“

“Good ramen with several options that are not found in many places. Good taste and prices, friendly servers, sometimes parking can be limited, opened until late on Fridays. Reminds me of some of the ramen shops when I was living in Japan. A must try if you’re in LA South Bay area.“

“It was incredible. The food was spectacular, the service was excellent, and t was so quick too. It took less than 10 minutes for us to get our food. And the decor was beautiful as well and had such a chill, casual vibe too. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ from me“

“I have gone to this little bistro several times and it is always great. The food is great, the service is excellent, and the wine is superb. I have gone here for girls nights, couples nights, Valentine's Day, solo, and more. I would highly recommend.“

“Can you get better Chinese food in LA for far cheaper. Absolutely, but you’d have to drive to SGV. For the Westside, this is about as good as it gets. The soup dumpling were thin skinned, flavorful and juicy, and everything else, from the Mapo tofu to the beef roll was very decent.“

“Great wine different flights to sample. You can even buy bottles“

“I went here for lunch today and it was great. I didn't know it was a fast casual, assembly line setup. I had a bowl with the asada and toppins of my choosing. Loved it. Meat had a great flavor, the pickled red onion was the MVP topping, and the guacamole had great texture and flavor. My colleagues had the carnitas and chicken options and they enjoyed their meal as well. I would definitely go back and recommend this spot to anyone.“

“Good service and quality food.“

“First time at Sammy’s in Imperial Beach for breakfast the portions were big and the desserts delicious. We definitely will be returning. Sammy’s is one of my favorite restaurants!“
