“I have came to this place since the day they barely opened up. I don't live in Huntington Park. I usually get their Salmon Bowl and on rare occasions, Miso Ramen.
The times I have gotten the Salmon Bowl, I have received good portions (enough rice and great Salmon pieces) but sometimes I would receive small Salmon pieces to the point where I have to pay extra for another piece. I do not mind paying extra pieces but portions MUST always stay consistent. The picture shown below, that day, I paid for an extra piece but I didn't know I was going to get regular size piece. I do not regret it. But portions have to be consistent. I still go to Akai every weekend for the Salmon Bowl and I will keep spending my money with this business.“

“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“

“Lee’s cafe is a Taiwanese-style cafe with a hint of Hong Kong sparkle, serving the perfect mix of Taiwanese and Hong Kong food. The toast is absolutely marvelous, and I truly believe it is worth every penny. Unfortunately, I can’t say the same for the other dishes. The sesame cold noodles were good, but missing something—I felt they didn’t quite hit the mark. The wontons were delicious, but the braised pork belly rice was your typical run-of-the-mill rice. Nothing terribly special, but delicious nonetheless. The HK milk tea, however, leaned very watery and missed the signature strong tea taste of a HK milk tea.
Also, their bathroom sink was broken and put as a “use at your own risk”. Hopefully they have fixed this since my visit!
Yet, through all this, I would still return to Liu’s kitchen—for their toast!“

“I actually really enjoyed all the dishes we ordered here, all the mains we got were excellent! Rendang was on the pricier side but honestly it was probably one of the best ones I’ve had!
Staff was nice and the restaurant was also clean.“

“We were greeted at the door, and given complimentary miso soup with our order. We got six different Yubu (buy five get one free). They were FANTASTIC. The torched salmon was a little overcooked, so it was a little fishy, but overall they were very good. Bulgogi and King Yubu were overall favorites.“

“Small hidden gem for the area. CASH ONLY and the not very detailed menu are the only issues people may have with, but the food quality, portion and pricing are amazing. The sweet grandpa is just the nicest soul you’ll meet. Not the best English but more than enough to get by and take your order. Please support this business if you’re ever in the area! They offer take out but I recommend dining in for the fresh made food and sauces“

“A really wonderful dining experience! The food is so creative while maintaining integrity to both Thai and Japanese cuisines. It was really fun to be all seated at the bar for the Autumn kaiseki menu. The sommelier was so fun and friendly and recommended not only incredible wines, but bonus sake tastings well. it's the kind of place that does a fixed menu, but you wanna keep going back because it rotates and everyone's so friendly a perfect blend of upscale and Neighbourhood vibe..“

“The location is lovey and convenient. They have a fixed price menu which allowed us to have an amazing 4 course meal at a reasonably affordable price for the quality. The food was delicious and so creative. The service and staff are wonderful. They did an excellent job with timing the courses — and they really know the food and drink. This place feels like a labor of love and I’m excited to go back. Good parking for like $5 just up the block.“

“So happy we stopped by O Banh Mi for some delicious banh mi for a late to-go lunch while visiting Silver Lake! The lemongrass chicken and beef banh mi sandwiches were flavorful, fresh, and swiftly prepared, but what I really enjoyed was chatting with the owner, Natalie, who was so friendly and kind to me and my toddler. Vietnamese coffee was also perfect. We can't wait to return on our next trip back to LA!“

“came randomly after a concert just because it was in the structure that i parked in and it was open late and damn i was not expecting the food to be so good. For higher end (in my opinion) sushi the price was extremely fair and the food was incredible plus the inside was super nice. On top of that lady that served us was super sweet and attentive def recommend as i’m super picky with sushi“

The gal who took our orders was friendly and helpful with providing some details about their menu. It wasn't fast food and tasted freshly made. The four of us who went said we'd all go again.“

“Best bowl of ramen (my fav tonkotsu) in the city! I’ve becoming here for at least 10 years and that ramen has remained so consistent. Also try the milk tea, kimchi fried rice and brick toast! Enjoy J- and K- pop videos while you eat. Love this place!“

“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 .“

“I love the food here, it tastes very authentic. Sometimes the dishes can be on the smaller side, the portion varies when I'm here (and I come usually once a week) but I use that as an excuse to get two. My favorites: rad na, pad Thai, pad see ew, and papaya salad. All excellent. Each dish is $10. And the warm polite smiling demeanor, just like in Thailand. They aren't here on Wednesdays, even though Google says they are, I made the mistake twice and was very hungry and upset to find them not open.“

“I’ve been coming here for years because I literally live a block away. The place has increased in price since I first came here and the menu has changed and what I used to get is no longer on the menu. LION KING ROLL is my goto. It’s delicious. However….. Today as I approached the counter to get my food, a homeless girl walks in barges right next to me as my order is being processed and given to me, and asks “y’all got any miso soup?!?” Stinky and obviously covered in filth, no bath for probably years and a dirty soiled blanket wrapped around her, I was instantaneously disgusted. Miso soup was given to her and I don’t know what else because I got outta there before she could even ask me for money or whatever! You feed a pigeon and what happens??? A dozen or more come. This is a simile; a point I’m trying to make. Homeless are the root of the problems here in Koreatown. You feeding them is the hand the feeds the problem.“
“Came across this place after a trip to the mall and it did not disappoint. Generous serving size of noodles and braised beef that was cooked to perfection and so full of flavor! Hand made sweet tea was also excellent! Will definitely be my new go-to for beef noodle soup. Highly recommend!“

“Delicious food, Always good quality. I have been going here weekly for over a year. The only thing that is frustrating, is that their closing time is not accurate with what they have it listed on google, I’ve had doordash orders go through that never came in, and i showed up to the location to be denied.. 30 minutes before listed closing time.“

“Food was so yummy! Had the chicken pho and edamame.“
“I have tried many roujiamos at many places around LA and the one i had here was the best by far. In addition i had the liangpi which was also good. Sometimes at night i dream about going to this restaurant again and in my dream, im trying the other things on the menu. The owner is also the kindest person!“

“Really excellent place for Chinese style skewers and some Korean elements. We got so many skewers and they were all delicious! We even got molten soup which is so warm and delicious.
I usually dislike Chinese style skewers places in US bc the risk and reward are not good (aka cost too much for tiny ounce of meat) but this place met my expectations and might be better than most places in China that I had.
High quality place if you can check it out.“

“A typical fancy omakase meal that I’m not sure if I would come back.
The menu only had 2 choices, wagyu or seafood set, $128 person. I enjoy most of the food, out of 11 courses, there 4 dishes with different type of steak, while the meat is good I think I expected more creativity?( Caz honestly I could probably do that at home myself with the quality of the meat).
I feel the restaurant lacks decoration compare to most fancy upscale restaurant, so without the atmosphere, the vibe, the setting. I think the experience would be for food for the most part … and I feel like they could make it more fancy if that make sense“

“Southern California is serious about it's food and Almuchow meets all the taste buds expectations!
Fantastic food spread from Crispy Pata to the kind of Sinigang you can only get back in the Philippines. We had bangus, chicken inisal, lechon kawale, ensalada talong, and pancit too! Their lumpia is crispy and every bite is full of yummy meat and veggies! Pancit, full of flavor. Lechon Kawali, beautifully seared and juicy.
Make Almuchow your next afternoon family destination. Everything here is very tasty, masarap! It's worth the trip!“

“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.“

“Plenty of seats. Extra like fifty cent charge for cards. Lady barely seem to speak english. Food taste a lil cheap. Got the mixed veg and fried rice. It was ok. Steam table food. The thing with these type of places is that the veggies taste clear/fake or something lol paid 15 with extra side of broccoli. Try it out if u will. Id go back last. Didnt taste like gmos or salty though.“
“Great bakery tucked away in a small trip mall on Las Tunas and Mission. Although small, the baked goods are so good here. They are also very creative with their pastries. This is the only shop I can find gigantic pineapple buns. One of the bun here equals to probable 4 to 5 regular buns that you would typically find at dim sum. They can also custom made cakes from 6 inch to whatever sizes you want with various different flavors and designs. We just ordered a 6 in chestnut cake with rose flower decoration for my mom's birthday. Order was done efficiently and timely. We ordered the cake one day before and was able to pick it up by next morning. I also like their Chinese pastries. One of my favorites is their Portuguese egg tart or Pastéis de Nata as they called the Custer in Portugal. The skin is so crispy and the egg tart filling tasted so good. I just can't stop eating them. Probably I have to run a couple of miles the next day to burn off the calories. There are so many great pastries here. I just have to come back to try them all. The owner is so friendly and she is always very helpful to introduce us to new products.“
“Incredibly flavorful and perfectly cooked crispy pork. Each bite had the ideal balance of crunch and seasoning, with just the right amount of heat to keep things exciting. Definitely recommend pairing it with the sauce — it brings everything together beautifully.“
“Muy buena comida y buena atención!💯“
“If you like dim sum - here is a place for you ! They serve dim sum all day long unlike some other places dim sum is served before 2 pm. In addition to dim sum, they do have some dinner dishes under ‘chef’s recommendation’. We ordered eggplants in garlic sauce - it was really good! Their dim sum is good with fresh ingredients !“

“Not every meal has to be at the trendiest restaurant.
Sometimes all you need is a classic Hong Kong cafe, a table full of comfort food, and a game playing in the background.
We stopped by JJ Hong Kong Cafe in Monterey Park and tried their Curry Combination Rice, Beef Brisket Lo Mein, Baked Pork Chop Macaroni, Deep Fried Cornish Hen, Fried Chili Turnip Patties, and French Toast.
The French Toast with ice cream was easily one of the most memorable dishes on the table. Crispy on the outside, soft on the inside, and perfect for sharing.
The atmosphere felt old-school and casual — the kind of neighborhood spot where people come for a relaxed meal, late-night cravings, or to catch a game with friends.
