“We had a 9PM, Sunday reservation at Sora Craft Kitchen, and when we first pulled up, we genuinely thought we were at the wrong place. The surrounding area is very dark and industrial at night, there were barely any cars around, and from the outside you would never expect what’s waiting for you inside.

The second we walked in, it was a completely different atmosphere. It was quiet and super ambient. One thing that immediately surprised me was that it didn’t smell like at all. We were greeted by the chef himself, and seeing him prepare everything right in front of us made the experience even more special. He was essentially running the kitchen himself, yet every dish came out surprisingly fast, fresh, and beautifully prepared.

We started with the Dry-Aged Tenderloin Shish Kebab, and that alone immediately set the tone for dinner. The beef was incredibly flavorful and tender.

Then the chef brought out the Mastabe and PLEASE!! If you come here, ORDER THIS. It ended up becoming the staple of our entire dinner. It’s this creamy house-made yogurt, we literally started adding it to EVERYTHING. The garlicky, creamy freshness somehow complemented every meat and every dish without overpowering anything.

Next came the Siverek Tava, and this one completely blew me away. The combination of ground beef, tomato, and roasted eggplant was incredible. My boyfriend HATES eggplant. Like, refuses to order anything with eggplant level of hate. Even he was shocked at how good it was and how perfectly the eggplant worked with the beef. Huge props to the chef because changing someone's mind about an ingredient they swear they hate says a lot.

The Grilled Branzino came next and was a perfect change of pace. Simple, fresh, perfectly grilled, and topped with vegetables. After all the richer flavors, the fish felt light and refreshing while still having plenty of flavor.

Then we had the Icli Kofte, which might have been one of the biggest surprises of the night. I wasn't expecting such an explosion of flavor from this dish.

Our last savory dish was the Garlic-Spiced Kebab. At this point I was so full and genuinely thought there was no way I was going to finish another dish... and then I kept eating it. It was smoky, garlicky, juicy, and so flavorful that I literally couldn't stop.

And somehow we still made room for dessert.

We finished with the Cheese Halva with Yuzu–Black Sesame Ice Cream, and it was the PERFECT ending. The warm cheese halva practically melted in our mouths. While the ice cream had this refreshing flavor that reminded us of mint and pistachio. The pistachio pieces underneath added the perfect crunch and texture to balance everything out.

What impressed me most about Sora wasn't just one specific dish. It was how thoughtfully everything paired together. Every dish tasted completely different. Nothing felt generic or like something you could order at any other restaurant. You can genuinely taste the freshness and the amount of thought the chef puts into the flavors, textures, and pairings.

Don't let the location fool you. Once you walk through those doors, it's this little hidden gem where the food completely speaks for itself.

Mastabe is NON-NEGOTIABLE. Order it and put it on everything.

Such an amazing dinner and the perfect way to end our day. We left ridiculously full and already talking about coming back. Easily one of the best meals we've had so far.“

“One of the best restaurants in Long Beach for Peruvian, style, seafood, ceviche, and Sushi. Family owned and operated with a friendly vibe and amazing service.“

“Wonderful location. I always feel so welcomed and appreciated every time I enter. They always take good care of me and my bf always really sweet and caring. The food is always fresh and made to perfection. I’ve been here numerous of times and will always chose to go here all thanks to the amazing staff.“

“Bento boxes are of great quality here. The attention to detail of this curated meal definitely lets your eyes feast first. All the little sides taste amazing, especially the candied sweet potatoes. The vegetables alternate between sweet and salty to balance out the meal. The Scottish salmon and mackerel are cooked to perfection. The little yolk in the rice also adds a nice touch to mix in and eat.“

“The food is an upgrade from Ono Hawaiian BBQ. Treat yourself American! Shootz!“

We are definitely returning soon to enjoy more delicious & delightful dishes!“

“There's never a bad night at this restaurant. The food is good, not amazing, but I don't want that to come through as a complaint; it's not.
The atmosphere & service are always on point, and the patio was the perfect setting to watch the share with my girl last night.“

“My mom and I always love to try Vietnamese places in different states and this one hit the spot. We ordered the pork rice plate and the beef vermicelli bowl. Both were very delicious and the portions were huge. It was also very reasonably priced! Additionally there was surprisingly not many people inside the restaurant, definitely a hidden gem.“

“Tasty Food, Friendly Staff, Dog 🐶 Friendly, Comfortable Dining, 💯“

“If you’re craving teriyaki chicken and beef, this place is it. First bite, noticed how good the quality of meat is. The prices are so reasonable and good for how good the quality is and how filling it is. I got the beef and chicken plate and I usually eat a lot, but I was so full with a quarter of it still left. This was 1000% a solid teriyaki bowl and will come back for more.“

“The staff are friendly. We enjoyed the Kitchen boat. The garlic fried rice with chicken was very good and tasted similar to hibachi fried rice. Brought my young nephews and they enjoyed the beef and chicken teriyaki. Will definitely come again and will try other sushi and noodles dishes.“

“The food is delicious!!! The broth for the beef ramen is so flavorful and the gyoza are perfectly cooked! The drinks and water are refreshing. The service is great! Very kind and polite. As a anime watcher, I love the atmosphere, the lights and anime posters with the music make it very enjoyable to be there.“

“​⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 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!“

“I've always seen this restaurant on the corner passing by and always wanted to try it out. I came into order for takeout and got my food in less than 2 minutes. Got home and the food was still piping hot. The service is spectacular and the food was amazing. Its a great place for great food and quick and friendly service. Will definitely be coming back.“

“Delicious food . Not a long wait. I will return 🤗“

“The best quarantine comfort food! Love this place! 😋“

“The food here is so good! Everything I tried was very authentic and tasted fresh. The service here is also quick which made the experience that much better. I'd definitely recommend this place if you're on the fence about trying it!“

“When I’m in Whittier visiting my sister I always swing by for a bowl of Pho and spring rolls“

“Food is good Nd worth every penny“

“I ordered the signature beef bahn mi to go. First thing I noticed was how expensive it was. I was regretting my decision to come here. Then the food came out, and it was packed with meat and veggies. The bread was slightly toasted. The meat was juicy and flavorful. It's now one of my favorite bahn mi sandwiches I've ever had. It's pricey, but I'll still come back for it!“

“Excellent !!!!!!!!“

“For the moderate price and ambiance, it all worked. Two adults and two preteens who eat out often. The chicken lettuce wrap was spot on. Crispy, clean, non-soggy lettuce; perfectly seasoned, savory chicken. We can eat this anytime. The crab wontons were good; they just needed a little more seasoning. Cucumber salad was spot on for summer: fresh, lively & crunchy. The children's sweet and sour chicken and kid's Lo Mein resulted in two clean plates. The only thing we did not like and sent back was the lychee lemonade: water with tons of sugar, really like twice the sugar of a soda can, no taste of lychee, and vague chemical lemony. Service was good, attentive and cordial. We will come back.“

“Really great service the workers are very nice and the food came out very fast though I did pick up and ate there. I got the Vegas roll and it was delicious you guys should definitely come here! They give you wasabi and soy sauce and the rolls are very big. Definitely worth it and I’ll be coming here more😁“

“This place is a gem! I ordered the chicken and beef plate, chicken katsu, baby lobster roll and dragon roll, and everything was excellent.

Food delicious - 5 stars
Portions generous - 5 stars
prices very affordable - 5 stars

“Fig's Corner – A Second Visit That Completely Changed My Mind

This was my second visit to Fig's Corner, located on the corner of 30th Street and Figueroa. My first visit was about two years ago, and it was actually my first time ever trying hot pot. Unfortunately, I made the rookie mistake of taking a bite too soon and burned my tongue, so I never really got to appreciate the flavors. Because of that, I left feeling unsure about the experience.

I'm glad I decided to give it another chance because this visit was completely different.

The restaurant has a beautiful atmosphere that's clean, modern, and welcoming. The service is simple but efficient. They hand you a menu with checkboxes, you mark everything you want, and the staff brings it out to your table.

To start, I ordered the cucumber salad, and it was fantastic. It was crisp, refreshing, and tossed with what tasted like chili crisp, soy sauce, and other flavorful seasonings. I also ordered the lamb skewers. They were small, but they packed an incredible amount of flavor. Every bite was tender, juicy, and perfectly seasoned.

For my main dish, I ordered the Signature House Beef Hot Pot, and I can honestly say it was one of the best soups I've ever had. The rich, savory broth was absolutely delicious. It came loaded with different cuts of beef, beef meatballs, quail eggs, tofu, mushrooms, vegetables, and several other ingredients that blended together perfectly. It was also served with a bowl of steamed rice and vermicelli noodles on the side, making it a hearty and satisfying meal.

To top it all off, I tried two of their specialty drinks: the grapefruit jasmine tea and the peach jasmine tea. Both were outstanding. The drinks included popping boba that burst with flavor in every sip, making them some of the best specialty teas I've ever had.

Overall, this second visit completely changed my opinion of Fig's Corner. Everything—from the appetizers to the hot pot and the drinks—was fresh, flavorful, and memorable. If you're looking for an authentic and delicious hot pot experience, I highly recommend giving Fig's Corner a try. Whether it's your first hot pot or you're already a fan, this place is absolutely worth visiting.“

“Pretty good Thai food with a good amount of heat from their spicy dishes. The lady at the counter was very helpful and she gave some good recommendations for a first time customer. Their Hainanese chicken was surprisingly good with juicy chicken chucks and chicken broth infused bed of rice.“

“Nice flavor and good place for lunch. Restaurant is clean, restroom also clean, and staff was friendly and quick.

For Norwalk I think this is one of better Chinese food places. Easy parking also. If you are nearby and want Chinese food, definitely recommend. They do delivery too.“

“Great delicious halal Chinese food“

“Fantastic dinner ! Chefs John and James are great ! We love it!“

“I went in to this location this week, first time trying Waba grill as I moved here and the cashier Jazmin was wonderful helping me figure out what to get, and Jesus was super accommodating as well.
Will definitely be coming here again!“

“It was delicious ?? The place was quiet and a bit intimidating but if you check out their website and look over their menu I don't believe you'll be disappointed. The food is a good size portion for the price. I ordered the chicken with tonkatsu. I was hungry and this hit the spot. I think they'd do well if it was a drive thru.“
