Ten Rens has been you of my favorite places to eat for years. All that I ask is to clean the table if you sit a guest at a dirty table.

Amazing ambiance, so peaceful and clean. The food is amazing. I've had the joy pot, fried rice, chicken, and the TAKOYAKI. Best Takoyaki here in riverside. The boba selection is also really good. The boba pearls have a soft bite all the way through and the drink has a smooth finish not powdery. I love that they have reusable bags and bamboo straws. I love to support businesses who put a little more effort into sustainability. Quick service and kind staff. I cannot emphasize enough how great the Takoyaki is. Amazing 10/10 i love this place.

I enjoy their wonton soup, but when you get to the end of the broth tends to be salty. They also have a great house coffee that really wakes me up.

Absolutely amazing, I got takoyaki and it was delicious, very generous with portions. I would trade my firstborn for another plate. 10/10 definitely recommend. If I could I would eat the box as well.

I was absolutely disappointed. What I ordered was a strawberry Matcha Milk Tea. First of all, the color of the Matcha does not look like quality Matcha, It was a brownish green color. Quality Matcha is bright green. Second of all the drink looked like this. The strawberry at the bottom was over powering. I did not taste matcha at all. More like a strong strawberry drink. Ive had this drink before other places and they are super good. Also, they changed their cups this is a regular and looks so small. They are overpriced. I ordered this and Takoyaki and paid $20 just for the two. I wish I can get my money back super disappointed and wont be going back.

Visited this joint a few days back since it's one of the only few asian restuarant in the area. I heard some say they add butter into their beef noodle soup which is extremely strange to me. I asked the waiter if they can remove the butter, the waiter said they aren't able to because "it's part of their recipe". Say what? What if someone is allergic to peanuts, is the waiter going to tell the person they still had to add peanuts into the dish that had peanuts in their recipe? So I asked to just add a little butter instead, and this beef noodle soup is by far the worst I ever had. The entire soup is overshadowed by the taste of butter. It's leaves a lot to be desired, and I suggest for the joint to taste their own dish, finding out how the real dish is made and not change up the ingredients.

Parking: Finding a spot is simple, and there's a parking structure. Food: They offer drinks, snacks, and meals. Not the best but isn't bad and is perfect for a convenient stop. Ambiance and Service: The atmosphere is decent with limited seating, and while it's generally clean and service varies on which staff is working.

2.5 stars for me as I’m Taiwanese and have been spoiled by food in Taiwan5.0 stars if I weren’t spoiled, the food is pretty good. Avoid beef noodle soup (who puts butter in the soup for that???), braised pork rice is good. Popcorn chicken is good, spicy wonton is ok (it’s like they marinated it in spicy oil, otherwise flavor is great), tofu is alright.Overall best thing is the braised pork rice, and contrary to what everyone says about the drinks, they’re extremely expensive and not good at all.

Came cross this place while traveling. It's one of the only places open on Thanksgiving and the food is surprisingly good.

Best Ramen in the IE, and I've tried allll of them lol. The broth is to die for and their prices are on point. So many others over charge and not as good!

Food was ok. Very small portions for the price. Drinks were good. Not the best. We ordered 3 noodles and 2 drinks, cost me $65.

Love their tea and blended drinks. For food the dumplings and the popcorn chicken are delicious. I haven't tried the rest of the menu items but so far I highly recommend the Love potion #3 perfect for a hot day. Worth driving 2 hours here.Service can be a hit or miss. Just depends who is working. Even if you ask a question courteously they're always answering with you can look at the menu with attitude. I've gone on a slow day with no customers ordering and one or two sitting on the tables.I recommend ordering ahead instead.

All around good place to come for food or drinks. Food was good, server/service was good, and the atmosphere was alright.I enjoyed their drinks, food was okay but a bit expensive. I like the large variety of food and drinks they offer.
