“A huge shoutout to Jazleen at Danny K's! She provided absolutely fantastic service during our recent casual meal. Not only was she incredibly friendly and amazingly efficient, but she was also exceptionally helpful. She went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed and answered all our questions with a smile. It's clear she genuinely cares about her customers!”

“The burgers were amazing- so tender and juicy for a default medium/medium well burger! The fried chicken sandwich was also so juicy and yet crispy, in fact I think my friend and I both preferred that, please don’t tell the owners! Just kidding..but it was great. Very light batter, but just enough crunch. The mochi waffle was yummy, and the combo of hot waffle and cold ice cream was uber-comforting. I’d recommend this place to anyone looking for a simple but extremely well thought-out meal.”
“The place is in a great location sit here have your coffee course go bye you can see the mountains. The service is amazing for food. Amazing you recommended by me and many of my friends and family. They even have organic food, which is awesome and gluten-free.”

“HI, I have to be honest. I was trying to find a way to contact Flappy Jacks as I have a proposition I think would be perfect for Flappy Jacks I have what is probably a bit of an unusual idea. Or maybe just a good idea. I know it is an unusual way to contact you but there was no email address. So I hope this works. I am from Columbia Missouri and I am visiting my Son, Grand Kids, and family there, just a few blocks to the East of Tustin. I am a musician, part time, and I like to street busk (play music on the streets) for grins. I noticed your nostalgic decor and your Elvis statues and the mural featuring the St Louis Arch, which is in Missouri on the Mississippi, of course, where I am from, and the 1930s, 40s and 50s nostalgia, and I wondered if you ever considered, or entertained the notion of having a little nostalgic live music, every now and then, perhaps even if only just once as an experiment. I just happen to play that old classic blues from that era, mostly, at least in this capacity, as Mr. Fletcher's One Man Blues Band. And I thought we might make a pretty good match up. As I said, at least, as an experiment. You can check me out at Facebook "Keith Fletcher, musician." Though most of that music is from my original music shows, and not my one man blues sets. I noticed you had a nice patio area where I could play outside and it might be a nice treat for your customers to have a bit of entertainment, just for a change of pace. They might really appreciate it since they obviously like your atmosphere. I don't play loud music. Unless folks want that, but I prefer to play soft. Or at least in situations like this. I've been the house band for BBQ joints and restaurants on several occasions. So I am familiar with the proper decorum. Mostly I was just looking for a little music adventure in CA within a walking distance of my Son's house, where I could carry a very tiny amp about the size of a cracker box, and my guitar to a gig. I thought maybe about just doing a street gig but saw your venue and something seemed to click. I hope you think so too. I estimate you are about a mile walking distance from his house and I only need an electrical plug. And probably some cool beverages. Like I said, I'm mostly in it for a small musical adventure, and so will play for tips, though, maybe you can pay me with free cold beverages, especially if it is hot, and maybe a sandwich or meal depending on how long I am there. It all looks delicious to me. If you find you'd like to host me again, and want me back, that might be possible over the week, and I may be back for the Christmas holiday. I might even be able to talk my Son into bringing the kids and family. Could be a total bust, or could be a very nice thing, but nothing ventured, nothing gained. Who knows? If it worked out well enough for both of us, you might even want to do it again sometime, Maybe even offer some kind of fee next time, if there is a next time. Life is an adventure. You / we, might stumble onto something good. If you would like to give it a whirl, what day and time would you think is good to catch a crowd? I am not sure what plans the family has, so maybe list a few slots. Look forward to hearing from you. I'll be flying your way tomorrow and leaving California on the 22nd. Thanks, Keith Fletcher AKA Mr. Fletcher's One Man Blues Band”
“Great place to relax. Love that it’s walking distance to where we stay. Park right across the street.”
“Beautiful dining experience. The service and food were excellent, and we thoroughly enjoyed it. Dining at Hobbit was like being invited to a fancy friend’s home for a gourmet meal, warm, inviting, and upscale, with a touch of home. We will be back.”
Outdoor Dining
“Wow…all around! Jeff greeted us, Jackie served us. Everyone…down to earth, personable! They were busy this Thursday nite and yet, very, very attentive. RSVP recommended but we Will fed it & scored the last table. Food options, amazing, drinks, soothing! We are definitely coming back with friends! First place that I'm over the head impressed!”
“We ordered the Salmon Pesto dinner along with the Chicken Parmigiana and both dishes were excellent. The presentation felt elegant and everything tasted wonderful. Considering the quality the price was very reasonable and we left completely pleased with the experience.”
“My group of three went right at opening we had reservations for 11AM. The staff were kind and attentive. My glass of water was always filled without having to ask which is always a personal plus of mine.
We ordered, fried tofu, shrimp ceviche, papaya salad, both of the curries, pineapple fried rice, pepper beef and truffle noodles. We loved everything we ordered!! The ambience of the restaurant and delicious food was an amazing combo, I really wish the best for this restaurant because we will definitely be back!”
“Menu had many options for varied tastes. Service was fast and friendly. Televisions were strategically placed to allow watching sports from just about anywhere in the restaurant.”
“Excellent food and service. The salsa, something that should be so simple, elevated the experience and showed how much thought goes into each dish. Only complaint is that it is super busy and crowded. That is for good reason.”
Online Reservation Available
“A man from a far country came to this restaurant, tired and hungry, and bought some Indian food. Much to his embarrassment the credit card denied the transaction. No problem, said the seller, take it and pay another time. God Bless you noble @Sandeep Kumar and your staff ברכה והצלחה בכל מעשי ידיך”
“The service is always great. Running between appointments, I call my order in from the car. when I get there, my table is waiting with my salad and basket of bread. My fettucine alfredo followed in 5 min. and was delicious! Had delicious meal instead of some cheap fast food and was able to make it to next appointment in plenty if time. Been coming here for 2 decades. Always good.”
“This small sushi restaurant may not have the luxury fancy interior decor but the food beats out pretty much all the high end sushi restaurants. The fish selection, grade and quality is incredible. Sushi rice is prepared right and very light and perfect compliment to raw fish. Sashimi just melts in your mouth. You don't need soy sauce here as the fish is already marinaded and prepped to be eaten right away.”
“Been coming here for 22 years. Still our favorite sushi place by far ❣️”
“This is my family's favorite sushi restaurant. The place is small and doesn't look fancy, but the fish is always fresh and offers many unique & delicious options. Some of our favorites are Kurodai, Amaebi, Black Dragon Rolls, and Honolulu Rolls. I also recommend the Tempura Udon and Chirashi Bowl.”

“Wow! From first contact with Aaron to home with my goodies, and sharing them with friends, I couldn't be more pleased. This first experience I got the most gorgeous hamburger buns ever, squaw bread, and cinnamon brioche. Special treat was the chocolate almond croissant...oh my! Trust me, I shall return!”
“Fantasic staff! They are always so friendly and helpful! They always remember us when we come in. The shabu is fantastic. The broth selections are wonderful and you can mix and match! Produce is fresh, lots of beers on tap. Only critisism is I wish they would change their chairs, they aren’t comfortable; the food is so good though it’s worth being uncomfortable!”
“I Love This Place Their Food And Drinks Are Delicious Their Service Is Great.”
Takeout Restaurants
“This place is legit on every level. The restaurant and bar have the kindest most helpful and amazing staff...the kitchen is always consistent with providing the most delicious authentic flavors . I honestly can't say enough good things about Pancho's. It is one of the best restaurants in our city.”
“Such a great hole in the wall place to have amazing food. I went for the first time about a week ago, I’ve thought about their shrimp tacos & shrimp tostadas everyday since & I’ve gone back since… might go again today. 🤤Miguel is very friendly & his family is so sweet too. I love supporting small businesses especially when they remind you of home & have AMAZING food. Chill vibes in there, playing good music & cozy seating. 10/10 would recommend for some comfort food. I also took this pic half eaten & in a rush lol (I forgot to take one before) :)”
“This place was poppin when we came. Cute Halloween decorations. Food was great! Recommend their savory roti with curry and their sweet roti. Pad thai was tasty. Branzino was really good. The sauce was too salty for me but it had good flavor. Thai iced tea was excellent. Will be back!”

“The best Thai cuisine in town, Chef is from Thailand, authentic taste as well. Walked in with my husband in mid-Dec, we both are Green / Red chicken curry lovers, price is right, enjoyable food, strongly recommend. Then, got lunch special take out today, it was fast prepared. Brought it home, food temperature and taste remained Hot/Delicious as we expected. Definitely would visit or take out again.”
“Friendly service and tasty Italian food. The Gnocchi was amazing, also the panna cotta was delicious. I recommend this place.”

“We recently celebrated by husband's 40th in the semi private room at this location and it was a fantastic experience. Andrew was incredibly helpful throughout planning stages with regular email exchanges and phone calls to ensure we were aligned in the food expectations and overall experience. The night of the event he was there onsite to ensure we had everything we needed and Savannah oversaw the service. She was impeccable and our 30+ guests were treated with great care and attention. The space was lovely and the overall experience was truly exceptional. Thank you for making this event so special for us!”
Drive-Thru Restaurants
“Best Mexican food. Friendliest service. Words can't describe the happy feeling I get eating here.
You must try everything!! Stand outs for me were the Carnitas, Cabeza, bucce, and the BEANS!! Make sure you get the beans and rice!! Their chips and salsa are the best appetizer, and snack on the way home! And their Menudo is a must!! Get there early on a weekend to avoid disappointment.”
“One of my fav spots to pop in when im in socal. I love the Ensenada style fish tacos. The rice and beans are delicious…. And the salsa bar is amazing. They let you take as much as you like. I also recommend a steak and shrimp burrito minus the cabbage. Absolute perfection.”
“Fantasic staff! They are always so friendly and helpful! They always remember us when we come in. The shabu is fantastic. The broth selections are wonderful and you can mix and match! Produce is fresh, lots of beers on tap. Only critisism is I wish they would change their chairs, they aren’t comfortable; the food is so good though it’s worth being uncomfortable!”
“This coffee shop lives up to their stars. My decaf maple rosemary latte with oat milk was delicious! The gluten free vegan walnut cranberry toast with almond butter was just right. Crunchy toast, smooth almond butter & 2 pieces (assuming since it's smaller than the non gluten free bread).”
“I dropped by to try out some Keto Bakery. All I can say is WoW. The Pecan carmel squares, the chocolate donut, and the chocolate cream pie were down right amazing. They were sold out of the Banana cream pie. I'm gonna try that next time. Friendly staff too! 5🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟”
“Adore the pho broth from this restaurant! Nice balance of herbal and meaty taste, with slightly fatty mouth feel, and hot enough to cook my bean sprouts. 👍 They also let me order the kid-sized pho with whichever meat I wanted (combo style), which I really appreciated on my diet. Egg rolls were fried fresh and hot.
Plus I genuinely enjoyed eating inside the restaurant. Cozy and clean, with gentle music playing. I'm coming back!”
“Awesome place, love the ambience, the glassware used to serve their beer, and the friendliness of the staff. Our favorite spot in the OC for beer 👌”
“First time there it was delicious got the double lobster tails with mac & cheese. And asparagus”
“The service is always great. Running between appointments, I call my order in from the car. when I get there, my table is waiting with my salad and basket of bread. My fettucine alfredo followed in 5 min. and was delicious! Had delicious meal instead of some cheap fast food and was able to make it to next appointment in plenty if time.

Cheap Eats
“What a great place! Stopped for lunch with my daughter. I had the Super Burger and she had the Patty Melt. Both were fantastic. Our server was so nice and attentive. We felt like we went back in time. The vintage vibe was warm and inviting. Would love to come back some evening for a cocktail at the beautiful bar.”
“WONDERFUL cold coffees on tap... Great coffee and great flavors... Very unique and creative... Always a most stop when we are in the area ... Today we had the dirty horchata which was unbelievable... And the ube vietnamese iced coffee... Barista was very helpful in deciding and wanted to make sure sweetness levels and taste were to our liking... Very friendly and helpful staff!”
“The food was amazing had an Italian sandwich that was monster and it was like $14 it'd be any sandwich for you
can go to any of this had a pool table
and a bar and a lot of friendly locals and outside smoking patio and clean bathrooms. Want more could you ask for it in a little local joint? I will come back for sure today was my second time in two months”
“Best sushi in Orange County! We've been coming here almost 4 years! The dishes are constantly so fresh and flavorful! The chefs and staff are so attentive and they remember you when you come back. The menu has so many great options!”
“One of the secret gem in Orange. Delivering the finest Spanish and Italian cuisine. The cocktails and food are out of this world. Friendly service, and always on top of their game. .”
“Super dumpling was on my radar to come to when visiting California because we don't have any halal dumplings where I live. I was really looking forward to it and, thankfully, they lived up to the hype.
The pan beef fried buns were great, as were was everything else that we bought ordered. The wontons and dumplings were amazing. We got both pan fried and steamed to try both of them and they were both great.
Thankfully, we were able to find seating fairly quickly for our family of five, but they were really busy and definitely get packed quickly. I'm not sure if you can call ahead, but it's worth a shot. I actually canceled our reservation to another place close to the area just because I would rather support an establishment that has meat, and i'm happy to have found that here.”
“I’ve ordered DoorDash from this place before and it’s always good! Their daddy noods and shrimp are good. Cajun flavor is awesome and they also offer non spicy options. I had the experience of also eating at the establishment vs. DoorDash and it is outside seating and clean. Staff was friendly and helpful while I was dining in!”
“My group of three went right at opening we had reservations for 11AM. The staff were kind and attentive. My glass of water was always filled without having to ask which is always a personal plus of mine.

The ambience of the restaurant and delicious food was an amazing combo, I really wish the best for this restaurant because we will definitely be back!”
“Oh man where to begin! This place is a hidden gem that I was recently taken to. Ever since going my first time about a month ago, I’ve been back 5 times! The bluefin nigiri is probably the best nigiri I’ve had in Orange County (The bluefin keeps us coming back week after week). If I were to recommend anything, it would have to be the bluefin. The yellowtail and salmon nigiri are just as amazing. You can’t go wrong with anything here—the fish is incredibly fresh and flavorful, and each roll and nigiri is so unique in its own way and flavor profile. They are also incredibly generous with portion size and price! We love sitting at the bar because it makes the experience so much better!
Apart from the food, what also keeps me keeping back is the amazing hospitality and service! Whenever we walk in, we are greeted by the entire staff—the sushi chefs, hosts, and servers. The staff take great pride in ensuring that guests are taken care of, and they genuinely enjoy getting to know their guests on a personal and grounded level. A special mention to Torrance, Jay, and Robbin (The sushi chefs) who consistently put out amazing nigiri and rolls for us! Another mention to Debbie and Diana, who are so incredibly warm, friendly, and hospitable—providing the best service in town!”
“I ordered some cookies for my daughter's bridal shower. Jess was wonderful to work with. The cookies were perfect. Great buttery sandy goodness and the buttercream icing made me want to scream. Let's not forget the exquisite packaging. All in all, a great experience.”
“The food was delicious, and their service was fast and friendly. We stopped here in the way to Santa Ana airport. We had the spam musubi, beef fried rice, hot and dry noodles, sauteed string beans, shrimp and pork dumplings in chili oil, sesame balls and one other dumpling that I can't remember the name of. Everything was so good,”
“I ordered takeout from this sushi restaurant and was really impressed. The sushi was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented—even for to-go. The staff were super friendly and helpful, making the whole ordering process easy and pleasant. My food arrived quickly and still felt fresh, which made the experience even better. Definitely a place I would return to and recommend to others.”
“This is the best place to get a prime rib always fresh and this restaurant is open every day �”
“Old classic American steakhouse. Bartenders are outstanding and pour a good drink not your standard 1 oz. . The Owners Jeff and Steve have greatly improved the place the last several years. I've seen their business increase. The food is very good and competitively priced. Some comments I read earlier that it was overly priced they must go to Denny's a lot. The weekends get packed. Sometimes 1-2 hour wait for dinner. They have entertainment on Tuesday, Friday, and Saturday. They also have great Happy Hour specials M-F. I'm just another happy customer that has been coming in for years.”
“Overall enjoyed my experience here. The flavours for the sauces were extremely yummy. Seafood was slightly overcooked in both orders we had, but the sauce and seasonings made up for it (probably the best seasonings I’ve had for seafood boil)!
Service is helpful - not necessarily attentive nor proactive but if you ask for anything they’ll be happy to help.
We spent roughly $60 per person.”
“We had an incredible time at Haven last night. The corn bread was perfectly warm and flavorful, the Gold Rush cocktail was spot-on, and the OG burger was one of the best I've had in a long time. Their beer selection was also outstanding. Great cozy vibe.”
“Fluffy, perfectly charred, nice chew and just the right amount of saltiness. I ordered a Margherita pizza to go and ate it later that evening and it still tasted excellent. This is as close to authentic Italian pizza as it gets. My only gripe is they open at 5pm so it’s difficult to eat there more often. The restaurant is tiny and cozy so reservations are a must if you do go. I can’t wait to come back and try another pizza.”
“Been coming here for 22 years. Still our favorite sushi place by far ❣️”
“Long lunch hours 11 am to 3:30 pm. Generous lunch portions with many familiar Chinese menu items. Prices are comparable to other local Chinese restaurants given the state of the economy.”
“This small sushi restaurant may not have the luxury fancy interior decor but the food beats out pretty much all the high end sushi restaurants. The fish selection, grade and quality is incredible. Sushi rice is prepared right and very light and perfect compliment to raw fish. Sashimi just melts in your mouth. You don't need soy sauce here as the fish is already marinaded and prepped to be eaten right away.”
“Omar is amazing, everything is fresh, delicious, and prepared from the heart. My daughter and I came to town before Spoons opened and he served us beverages and somehow got us food before the time of opening. Amazing service, food, and environment”
“We had an amazing experience. The food was absolutely delicious—well-seasoned, fresh, and clearly made with care. The service was excellent from start to finish; the staff was welcoming, attentive, and genuinely kind. We'll definitely be back!”
“Best polish food in Southern California food prices and great people”
“I Love This Place Their Food And Drinks Are Delicious Their Service Is Great.”
“I've been to this sushi bar a few times, they never disappoint. I like that they have plenty of options with no crab meat, and I like their yellowtail rolls. The amount of fish in the rolls is generous, and the size of a portion is big. The second set of the rolls is 50% off before 3 pm (not sure if that works everyday or just weekends)”
“Glass of Cab, they have an excellent selection, and a charcuterie board, absolutely fantastic! The staff is super helpful. Did I mention they have beer too?!?!?? On tap! Self serve!!!! Great place”
“1 of the best customer services we have ever had just wowwowo now because im italian i know what italian food tastes like and let me tell you its not all that BUT Its not bad to.”
“Friendly staff, good service, good food. Very clean restaurant.”
“Excellent food and service! Fresh, home style cooking. Great coffee too! It’s on the first floor of the business building. Ordered a egg & chorizo burrito and a Carmel Macchiato with Almond milk and both were excellent! Wish I worked in the building. I’d be here all the time.”
“This place is HIDDEN but it’s a gem. It was my first time and I truly enjoyed it. It ticks every box for an authentic dive bar. It’s not fancy but if you’re looking for a good time this is a great spot.”
“The food is tasty 😋 , the owner is very friendly and kind 🙂 , I think they have karaoke during the night if you like to sing you should visit this place 😊”
“The place is a small bar, two pool tables, a small dance floor, but the vibe is poppn'.. 5 of us went and we had a blast, we got lucky it was someone birthday and there was live music (banda). The food was great, which caught me by surprise ? ? ?. We loved it so much that we had two orders of the same. The girls at the bar and waitress are friendly. If I'm in the area, I would pop in.”
“They also have large Mexican candy selection. The candy is cash only and funds get donated!”
“Good food and child friendly. Cool Halloween decorations. Our server was great. I recommend this place!”
“Had a wonderful time & the food and drinks were great. Really good service as well.”
“Everything was fabulous——food, service and ambience; I highly recommend it!!!!!”
“The best Chinese food I've ever had in my now twenty six years of rambling on this rock. The orange chicken was fried to utter perfection with the sauce not being to sweet nor salty. The lack of breeding was wonderful for the crispy nature was from a perfect frying. To great surprise not oily at all. Quy was my server and was a great man to talk to and very kind and insightful as to what to eat and how it was made. Price was nominal for the market rate. The wontons where wonderful semi sweet without the sauce and dessert like with it. Panda Express, eat your heart out.
Parking: Just a pain getting in or out of the lot as a whole.”
“THERE'S A $9 SHARING FEE!!! I went here instead of AYCE because I didn't feel like eating a lot but going here is more expensive. It's delicious, yes, but pricey”
“They have good food and there prices are very fair with the rise of coat I think it fair what they ask .also I recommend to come on Any day but Friday is when there busy the most so come if u want good food but a long wait still come even when there busy.”
“My husband and I enjoyed our date night. Great service and great food👍🏼 will definitely come back😍”
“Excellent, we enjoyed bringing our staff to celebrate the Christmas Holiday”
“We hosted a birthday party here. Very friendly staff and nice environment. Will come back. The food are actually surprisingly good. This location has been renovated. Things are clean and new here.”
“Just celebrated a double birthday lunch at Jardin Autentica Cocina after finding it on Instagram and boy, did it deliver! Decor, ambiance, food - everything was top-notch. It seemed like half the restaurant was celebrating a birthday, but didn't detract from our experience. Reservations are a must, super busy! Already looking forward to coming back. @jardinoc”
“Very great service, Alfredo the manager is one of a kind. Congratulations to the whole team!!!! 😃😃😃”
“Great food, friendly and service-oriented staff, with spacious room for business conference. Will definitely be back !”
“Amazingly good with the sauces, the chicken breast they used for the chicken bowl was huge saw them put it on the grill. They do change up their specials, it used to come with a drink too, but now I understand the drink is now not priced in the special.Thumbs up portion for $14.99 for chicken bowl and drink, big portion don’t miss out.”
“Staff are very friendly, my husband and me ordered Sancocho de Gallina and yucca frita, and it was delicious..”
“Fuimos a celebrar el cumpleaños de mi hermana fue mi primero vez que llegue ahí y nos encanto un lugar increíble desde meseros asta ma comida 💯 recomendó y el ambiente que hacen no se diga esta muy bonito 🤩”
“Great lunch of good American fare! Good choices available and of good value. Heydi, our waitress was very kind and accommodating with our group and baby. Overall, a good experience.”
“Great portions , food and service are great 😊 my family’s favorite place now”
“The restaurant was busy (as we expected for a Friday night). We had made reservations for 7 pm following our daughter's graduation ceremony (another nearby restaurant wouldn't take reservations). We arrived a bit early and were seated promptly. Orders were taken quickly, and our appetizers arrived almost immediately followed shortly by our food. Our server was attentive all evening long and took care of our needs. And those $13 meal deals cannot be beat! Thank you so very much for a great experience!”

“Service by Taylor was great. FOOD WAS ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!!!! I had the fried rice w pork belly i was sharing and that was a huge mistake because the moment I tasted it I wanted it all to myself. Soooo good. The cinnamon pancakes were fluffy and yummy as well. Also tried the lavender latte n that was good. Definitely will return”
“The place is in a great location sit here have your coffee course go bye you can see the mountains. The service is amazing for food. Amazing you recommended by me and many of my friends and family. They even have organic food, which is awesome and gluten-free.”
“Wonderful place to go to celebrate! We thoroughly enjoyed our special day here celebrating my mom's birthday
The service and food was excellent. I recommend the house salad, very fresh and delicious. I also had a chicken tostada, also yummy. They even sang happy Birthday to my mom. Exceptional service.”
“HI, I have to be honest. I was trying to find a way to contact Flappy Jacks as I have a proposition I think would be perfect for Flappy Jacks I have what is probably a bit of an unusual idea. Or maybe just a good idea. I know it is an unusual way to contact you but there was no email address. So I hope this works.

I am a musician, part time, and I like to street busk (play music on the streets) for grins. I noticed your nostalgic decor and your Elvis statues and the mural featuring the St Louis Arch, which is in Missouri on the Mississippi, of course, where I am from, and the 1930s, 40s and 50s nostalgia, and I wondered if you ever considered, or entertained the notion of having a little nostalgic live music, every now and then, perhaps even if only just once as an experiment. I just happen to play that old classic blues from that era, mostly, at least in this capacity, as Mr. Fletcher's One Man Blues Band. And I thought we might make a pretty good match up.

It all looks delicious to me. If you find you'd like to host me again, and want me back, that might be possible over the week, and I may be back for the Christmas holiday. I might even be able to talk my Son into bringing the kids and family. Could be a total bust, or could be a very nice thing, but nothing ventured, nothing gained. Who knows? If it worked out well enough for both of us, you might even want to do it again sometime, Maybe even offer some kind of fee next time, if there is a next time. Life is an adventure. You / we, might stumble onto something good. If you would like to give it a whirl, what day and time would you think is good to catch a crowd? I am not sure what plans the family has, so maybe list a few slots. Look forward to hearing from you. I'll be flying your way tomorrow and leaving California on the 22nd.

“I’ve ordered DoorDash from this place before and it’s always good! Their daddy noods and shrimp are good. Cajun flavor is awesome and they also offer non spicy options. I had the experience of also eating at the establishment vs. DoorDash and it is outside seating and clean. Staff was friendly and helpful while I was dining in!”
“Wow, what an amazing chorizo breakfast burrito! This was my first time at LJ's. The quality of the ingredients was seen and smelled before the first bite. Then came the crunch of the tots which triggered a taste and experience of freshness along with a perfect blend of other flavors from the other ingredients all perfectly balanced proportionally. I had a different chorizo burrito this weekend (another 1st time try at a place close to my house) but it had soggy hash browns (so much that I had to surgically remove some) that really overshadowed and ruins the burrito. This burritos was awesome! I also highly recommend trying the sauces. The hot orange sauce was my favorite then the cilantro cream. The chipotle was also rich and creamy. Thank you LJ's for a yummy burrito experience!”
“Overall enjoyed my experience here. The flavours for the sauces were extremely yummy. Seafood was slightly overcooked in both orders we had, but the sauce and seasonings made up for it (probably the best seasonings I’ve had for seafood boil)!
Service is helpful - not necessarily attentive nor proactive but if you ask for anything they’ll be happy to help.
We spent roughly $60 per person.”
“As almost rveryone who has been to an In and Out knows there are hamburgers an cheese burgers made fresh. Options are no onions, raw or grilled onions, tomatos lettuce sauce and pickles lid some I don't know about. Fries can have melted cheese and sauce and instead of a bun the burger can be serv ed wrapped on a lettuce leaf. Drinks are fountain and unlimited a milk shake or coffee. It is almost always a mob scene which tells you how popular it is.”
“Very good find! The inside was very clean and bright atmosphere with happy music. The food was amazing! Generous portions and I could tell there was thought put into the presentation of the food (ceviche was beautiful!). We ordered a ceviche plate and fish taco. We don't speak Spanish but the cashier was helpful in explaining each dish and naming recommendations. I will definitely come back when I am in the area. Price was reasonable for the amount of food.”
“Fluffy, perfectly charred, nice chew and just the right amount of saltiness. I ordered a Margherita pizza to go and ate it later that evening and it still tasted excellent. This is as close to authentic Italian pizza as it gets. My only gripe is they open at 5pm so it’s difficult to eat there more often. The restaurant is tiny and cozy so reservations are a must if you do go. I can’t wait to come back and try another pizza.”
“What else can I say but WOOOOOW!
I went for thr first time this evening out of curiosity and I'm so happy I did! The food is GREAT!
I ordered the fish and chips basket with chicken strips and a side order of coconut shrimp and couldn't even finish it all because the portions are HUGE!
I was really pleased with everything and thr best part about tonight's visit is that everything was STILL HOT once I got home!
Thanks for the great service and incredible food!
5 stars PLUS!”
“Me and coworker were looking for a decent Mexican restaurant for some tacos in this area, not too far from work bc traffic … But glad we tried this place. Carnitas taco was my favorite. The fact that I could eat that alone without any salsas, delicious. You can actually taste the meat for what it is. Very friendly staff. Coworker got carnitas burrito and loved it.”
“Ordered skirt steak, sea scallops and oysters and all were excellent!”
