“I drive down Norwalk Boulevard every day for work, the banners outside the restaurant, promoting fish tacos, lured me in. After trying the fish tacos for the first time I was hooked, I look forward to having lunch every Tuesday for there fish tacos special.“
“Today I went and I was surprised that they always have good service. But I don't know what happened today they gave me some spicy pancakes. I told them and at least I thought they would give me new ones since I obviously couldn't eat the previous ones and they didn't ignore me at all. Sosimply. I left . ??“
“So much to choose from! So happy two gentlemen outside recommended this one over the other place a couple doors down I was considering! I ordered a veggie baked potato with a side salad and I could not finish everything! $10!!! No added protein for me but there were plenty of options for additional $$. Ambiance- one table indoors, the rest is all outdoor, which was decent. I ate with no inconvenience at all! I was planning on getting a smoothie or fresh Agua Fresca after I was done but I was too full! They also have sandwiches/panini's and burgers, so something for everyone! Great service, smiles and kind help for the newbie! I appreciated their patience.“
“Great little cafe for Breakfast and lunch, the folks here are so kind! The food comes out quick and is easy and affordable, usually around $8-11 for lunch depending on what you get. I like the meatball sandwich with cheese and their cold sandwiches the most.“
“Second time at Kareem's, and the taste just stays golden! Ordered the Falafel entree meal with a side of yellow rice and French fries, and also the Plant based Fat Kid (yes that's literally the name) with an order of Fried Cauliflower. The falafels stayed extremely warm the whole visit, crispy while soft on the inside. The rice portion was massive with leftovers for the next day. And the French fries were seasoned just right to with a perfect crunch that I couldn't get enough of. The Plant Based Fat Kid meal is literally what it's meant to do: satisfy a hungry vegan or someone wanting to eat healthier without jeopardizing the indulge. The quinoa and hummus are worth it in this meal alongside the aforementioned crispy warm falafels. For the seating, there indoor and outdoor, adorned with lovely greenery and tables showcasing the restaurants reviews from the news. And the restaurant wouldn't be what it is without all the amazing staff. They're very welcoming that makes you feel like family. One of the owners of the place, Nesrine aka the Falafel Queen, took my order and was there was a shortage of grape leafs for one of the other meals I order, she kindly gave me an extra falafel! Looking forward for my third and ongoing visits!“
“Their grilled vegetables are snapping! Love their green sauce (not the Mexican one and I think it’s called chimichurri or something like that), it goes really well with the grilled chicken and vegetables we ordered. Love the hummus and yogurt, salad and the dressing. Clean and tidy. Friendly staff. The owner/chief who was with us patiently help us out with the choices for the bowl and very passionate about delivering friendly service. Definitely will visit again! Very healthy options too!Vegetarian options: Grilled vegetables, salad, hummus, corn, tomatoes and cucumber toppings, vegetarian sauce and salad dressing“
“Fast and friendly service. Ordered a Combo with the Turkey Club and a Green Smoothie. Everything was made fresh. The sandwich had the perfect amount of ingredients, and they didn't overdo the garlic aioli.This is my second time here, and both times have been very good.This is a mom & pop shop, but the food is good. They only offer take-out, but it's good for a grab and go meal. I would highly recommend.Parking: Strip mall parkingWheelchair accessibility: There is a ramp got wheelchair access“
“Went here with a business associate for a super late lunch and was surprised at the options. We were both starving but had a long drive back home, so wanted something filling but still light enough to not cause food coma.The customizable options made it easy to order. Both of us split a bowl and mushrooms tacos on gluten free tortillas. They splits -plated our food so that was really nice that we did not have to.The Tacos had amazing flavors, we asked to add pickled onions to additional tang. It was great.The bowl with tofu and brown rice, while good could use a little bit more flavoring. We got the dressing on the side that added some depth, but I feel something else can be added to the bowl to up the umami flavors.Overall a good choice. Pricing was a bit on th higher side , unfortunately, in-line with most places these days.Vegetarian options: Very customizable options.“
“It was a rare occasion for me to dine at a Turkish restaurant in the US. In fact, this was my first time experiencing Turkish cuisine outside of Istanbul. Owned by a friend of my friend's in-law-to-be, the restaurant offered a selection of traditional Turkish dishes that we thoroughly enjoyed. The meats were prepared in the Halal style, and the flavors were exceptional. While it's difficult to discern between Halal and non-Halal tastes, I understand that some people have religious preferences regarding their food. The black tea I ordered complemented the meal perfectly, although it's worth noting that the restaurant does not serve alcohol. The Mediterranean-inspired decor and ambiance, along with the predominantly Middle Eastern clientele, added to the authentic experience. Overall, I would highly recommend visiting this establishment to sample delicious Mediterranean cuisine. The service definitely needs improvement. Our second order didn't arrive until after we had finished the first one completely. We were left wondering when the second order would be ready and had to remind the waitstaff about it. Their response seemed puzzled, and it wasn't clear if they understood our query. We even considered ordering something else, but luckily, the second order finally arrived about five minutes later. To better accommodate the diverse ethnicities of their patrons, the establishment may need to ensure that their waitstaff communicates clearly and with appropriate expressions.“
“Fave spot in LA and order here at least 2-3x a week. Best, most creamiest hummus I’ve had in my life. Rice is cooked to perfection every time. Both their salads are delicious and refreshing, Tabouleh Oaxaca Salad is a must try. Taco plate with chicken and cauliflower is my go-to. Everything is fresh and packed with flavor. Prices are affordable/reasonable and portions are perfect. Owners are super friendly and you can tell they put a lot of care and passion into their food.Dietary restrictions: Vegan and vegetarian friendly.Parking: Has its own parking lot. About 7 spaces.“
“Best place to have German food. The food is authentic and delicious. Great selection of beers and great food. Big, hearty portions, friendly service. The pork shank was tender and had a rich gravy. The schnitzel’s wild mushroom sauce is great and has great flavor. The pork is not dry and the light breading makes a good texture. I wished that the mashed potatoes and wild mushroom sauce were served hot, but it was still delicious.“
“We had a fantastic experience here, as well as delicious food. I love love their house made Burmese style tofu. But honestly everything we had was great! tea leaf salad, garlic noodle, soft tofu noodles, vermicelli, samusa, and coconut gel desert; top notch. The owners were so lovely and made my birthday celebration feel so special. And their recommendations & catering to our strict vegetarian options were really thoughtful. Thank you!Vegetarian options: Lots of vegetarian/vegan offerings but owner will adjust to make most all dishes vegetarian upon request“
“My family and I love stopping by at this location for a meal whenever we in town visit my parents. I never get disappointed. Last night, 12/23/23, our meals were not prepared correctly. What impressed me is that they rectify it immediately without any negative attitudes. Compliments to the manager and staff at this location for continuously making my family’s and mine dining experience so enjoyable. Thank you.“
“It was good value for money and had a pub-like atmosphere to enjoy a steak. I think it used to be the Hometown Buffet at Cerritos Town Center, but it was very spacious and the service was great! The portions are large, so men can choose between a steak and two side dishes, so women with smaller portions can order a smaller portion!I recommend this restaurant where you can eat for 4 people for around $100. However, the standard waiting time is one to two hours, and even between 5:00 and 5:30, I waited about 40 minutes to be seated.“
“Good service, excellent portions, the food is super delicious and with top quality ingredients, we ordered the nachos, chilaquiles and birria, all delicious, the café de roca is also excellent and the best thing is that the tortillas are made to “
“What a great find! This brewhouse has amazing service and food. Tried the Mamas Boy pizza and Scapoli and pretzel bites. The mamas boy was my personal favorite. Yummy beers on tap. The gentlemen working were very kind and attentive, ensuring we had everything we needed. It's a family-friendly local spot. There are table games to enjoy. The specialty pizzas are extremely unique, and we will be back to try others.Kid-friendliness: Kids are welcome and there are games (tabletop/board games in the back) for them to play while the adults can grab a drink.“
“I was very curious to know what a Chicago hot dog tasted like so we drove to Portillo’s to find out. I can see why they don’t add ketchup, there are so many different flavors packed into one hot dog with all the toppings . It was very tasty. Prices are reasonable but we did end up getting some chicken tenders as we were still hungry after eating the hotdogs and sharing some sides. My kid liked the lemon cake better than the chocolate one and she really liked her strawberry cake shake.I really liked the decor too. There is so much to see in there, even stuff hanging from the ceiling.Parking: It is located on the outside of the mall parking. We had no issues finding parking. They also have a drive through option“
“First time coming to this lovely restaurant but definitely not the last. I was really impressed by the amazing food. We just order appetizers and dessert since we were kind of full, but we wanted to give this restaurant a try and it didn't fail us. We had the picaditas which is a great option if you wanna try the 4 moles. We also had the clayuda which was amazing. And the plantains for dessert which where so yummy.Will definitely recommend this place.It's a must try. Prices were good, good atmosphere and amazing service. Will be coming back soon and trying other plates“
“Finally: the best vegan Pizza is back!!Pineapple Express! We’ve been waiting so long!It’s a festival of flavour! :DParking: The parking lot at Purgatory has a small number of spots and it’s kind of difficult to navigate through. S Utah Street has plenty of street parking.“
“What a gem! Absolutely delicious. I had an asada burrito with a kale agua. The agua was so refreshing. The burrito was crazy! Everything fresh, perfectly seasoned. Just a perfect burrito. My wife had asada and fish tacos with a kale agua. She said these are the best tacos she's ever had. Really cool spot and the customer service was wonderful. Look forward to coming back soon!“
“Wanted to try a new breakfast spot this morning and this place came up on Yelp. I ordered a pork belly breakfast burrito, a pour over, and a fudge chocolate brownie. Pork Belly Burrito: Welcome to flavor town! The eggs are light, cheesy and well seasoned. The eggs take center stage but they also help bring all other ingredients to the spotlight. The pork belly was soft and its fat rendered well into the rest of the burrito. The pork belly didn't make the burrito greasy, which I loved. The tortilla was also soft and fresh tasting--I think they might be making their own tortillas in house. It came with a green salsa that was punchy but not too spicy. The only con in my opinion is the size of the burrito. I only count that as a con because I'm a big dude, with a big appetite. However, I would definitely buy this burrito again since all of the ingredients are of quality and very delicious. It's a 4/5 stars for me. Pour over: The pour over they had today is from Peru. The barrista did a really good job of controlling the water temp so I was able to taste all of the notes in the coffee. I noticed the flavor of berries with a chocolate after taste. Flavor is not overly bold with a nice creamy body. Shout out the barrista! 5/5 stars I love me some good coffee. Fudge Chocolate Brownie: The brownie was good but I wouldn't get it again. It's a heavier brownie--I like a more cakey type brownie. This brownie was dense, hence the "fudge" in its name. It leans towards a dark chocolate flavor profile with a bit of sweetness to counter the bitterness. You have to be a big chocolate lover to have this. However, they did have other pastries so they have choices for you. 2/5 stars for me. They have a cool little brick and mortar shop on Cesar Chavez that has a couple of tables for you to enjoy your food or grab and go. Overall I give this place a 4/5 stars and would definitely recommend trying them out. (Plus you get to support a small business!)“
“Grabbed a couple burgers to go. The burgers had a great char broiled flavor. I had the teriyaki burger. I was expecting it to be a traditional burger plus a grilled pineapple but instead it was a traditional burger with the choice of beef or chicken teriyaki added to it. It was very good. Fries were good, not too crisp but not quite mushy. Overall a great taste, good price, fast service. Worth all the good reviews.“
“I have been passing by this spot for the past 4 years and have always wanted to try it. I finally gave it a shot and am glad I did.I got a small cheese steak sub with no tomatoes, it was delicious. I especially liked the bread, it had a great taste and nice soft crunch. I also got myself a small potato chip bag. The total came out to $9 and some change (pricing as of Nov 2023). The customer service was pretty good too, they were happy to answer my questions. I got my sandwich in like 3 minutes, very quick service.There were a few groups eating in, and no line when I arrived although a few customers did arrive after I placed my order. This was on a Friday around noon, so not too busy.I’ll definitely be coming back.“
“Little hole in the wall. Never new this place existed until I googled sushi places near me. Tried it for the first time. Their sushi is very delicious!! Very good deals too. Buy 2 get 1 free. Super yummy, have lots of flavors. Service was good. Am definitely going back to try more of their deliciousness.“
“Before the change of ownership, I often visited CJ Deli. They always use fresh ingredients and the portions are generous.I especially enjoy their vegetable burrito, which is tastier than other places.Although there's a new owner now, they also greet me with a smile and kindness, which is nice.“
“Wanda is a wonderful owner and the food she serves is incredibly. To have this quality food option at such generous portions in this neighborhood is an absolute bliss. I got the hummus sammy - the size of an infant, mind you! Loved the flavors - it's what I would want all of my patients to eat; light, heathy, filling, delicious, sustainable.“
“Absolutely the best cafe de olla I've EVER had so far!Atole de nuez with half the sugar was perfect! The coco atole was also delicious! Waffles, mini pancakes, and Nutella crepes were amazing. Not at as sweet as I thought. Just the right touch of sweet! Definitely coming back to try the chilaquiles! Definitely a place you must try!“
“Ordered Large size pizza in 2-different flavors: Meat Lovers & Supreme. Actually it’s not much of diff in b-tween, except bell peppers, onions n mushroom, olives in Supreme. I prefer the Supreme w/ some moist juicy tasty bites from the veggies.Overall the topping is fresh which bring out a good flavor to it. Pizza dough itself is a bit too soft more like a bread, as I prefer a little more chewy texture. It’s 3.8.This is my very 1st time trying out based on my pizza searching when this local hole n wall spot pup up w/ a high rating score.It doesn’t even look like this business is open, as all the windows are closed, even it’s hard to find the entrance when there’s no Open sign.Cashier guy is not so friendly nor attentive. I imaging he’s from the owners family perhaps…(:“
“The food is delicious .....The family is wonderful. Great place to have a gathering...we had a birthday party In the back room. Everyone was so accommodating to us. The food was delicious and the portion were big . We had the raviolis, chicken Alfredo and spaghetti bolognese. The price was right and everyone had a great time. Shout out to Jr. who made sure whatever we needed he tried his best to accommodate.' also try the wings ...5 stars 5 stars“
“I SWEAR THESE ARE THE BEST BURGERS IN BURGER HISTORY ISTG 10/10 LIKE YALL NEED TO TRY THESE, LIKE THESE CHEESEBURGERS ARE LIKE THE DEFINITION OF CHEESE BURGERS. LIKE THESES BURGER ARE THE LITERAL KING OF BURGERS IF BURGER HAD KINGS AND LIVED IN A MONARCHY AAAND THE TERIYAKI OMG LOVVVVV “
“We love Adana Grill! The generous portions of exquisitely seasoned tender meats and fresh savory sides offer texture and flavors that compliment perfectly. Whether creamy or crunchy , roasted or pickled there is something for everyone here. We often start with the crispy Cheese rolls or Kibbeh. The house special Adana Kebab is excellent, and chicken and beef kebabs are some of our favorites. Don’t forget to finish your meal with Turkish tea and sweet treats of baklava and Turkish delight. Beautiful photography and lively music complete the casual atmosphere. Every meal we have here, or take home , we end saying, “That was so delicious and satisfying. I am so happy”!Kid-friendliness: Very kid friendly Great for family, date, friends group or just solo mealWheelchair accessibility: Easy roll up to tables for 1-“
“I'm so excited to have stumbled upon Holy Grounds while looking for a cafe on Google Maps! Holy Grounds is definitely a hidden gem on an otherwise lengthy street. If you enjoy cars zooming by for white noise, then this spot is perfect for you! What makes it amazing is that parking is plentiful, and there is a two hour limit - perfect for a quick work / study break. I ordered their iced latte, and by the first sip I knew this would be a good day. Unlike other espressos that I've tried ,the ones served at Holy Grounds are lighter, and the milk gives it a perfect creamy texture. If you're into beans that are not too strong but still pack a hint, I highly recommend their iced latte. There are also a variety of snacks and food available for purchase, and most of the space showcases artwork and merchandise from small businesses. Although it's a bit out of the way to drive to, I can see myself coming back whenever I'm in the area just for the ambiance... though beware that there isn't too much indoor seating - two spots at a bar is all that I saw.“
“I was extremely sad that the sushi place in the montebello mall closed down. I came here and saw a lot of the same workers! The sushi was 11/10, ambience was 11/10 and Service was 11/10! I will totally be back and this just became my new all time favorite sushi spot compared to kaiba! Watch out Monterey park, this one is going to be in the newspapers“
“Pizza is delicious ? kinda thin with a thick fluffy crust. Service is good they just need someone to stand in the front at all times they get so busy everyone is putting in their fair share so it's understandable that sometimes you might have to wait a min or two to order a refill or something extra but they are always nice and friendly. As for atmosphere I liked it more when it was darker inside but that's just personal taste“
“Soooo good! Lots of choices. Fast service in bringing out the food. I was sooo hungry when we finally got in. The wait was a little long but it was worth it. Our server was also very good Aaron. He always came back to check if we were doing ok. Definitely something I would recommend. I'll be back soon.“
“Olive Garden is one of my favorite spots when I'm craving Italian food, especially for their all-you-can-eat salad, which is the best part, in my opinion. This location tends to get very busy during peak hours, so coming earlier is advisable. Making a reservation can also make your experience smoother. I definitely recommend it.“
“This was the second time going to Luna Grill today. I enjoy this spot a lot. The food is always fresh and hot straight from the stove. I love that! I order my usual and it never disappoints it's delicious! All the tables were clean and the restrooms love that. Karla and Daniella were so kind and very helpful! Thank you!“
“If you have not been, you need to go! The food tastes amazing the quality of not just the food but the service is the best I've ever experienced. They got helpful staff at the front, and the manager is a class act kind of guy. He makes it feel like you just went to your family's house for lunch. You really can't beat this place!“
“If you ever come, I hope you get the pleasure of meeting Erin! Erin is such a wonderful person with an infectious personality and made my whole experience so delightful. All my questions were answered and I was given great recommendations. Thank you so much Erin!I love this place because it's the easiest way to meal prep or eat healthy. It also doesn't break the bank and the food is pretty good! They also have AMAZING pastries that are healthy but taste "non-healthy" which keeps me doubly happy as it's calorie friendly but I don't feel like I'm missing out on anything.The store is so clean and the they have many food choices so you don't feel like you're eating the same thing every day when you're dieting.“
“We have options for rotisserie chicken, fire grilled chicken, and other methods or cooking the bird. Well Juan’s does it well. The chicken was not dry. The rub on it forms a tasty layer that is not too salty or peppery. The potato salad for me sealed the deal. Creamy finely chopped goodness. Decor is quaint reminds me of small dinners growing up. You know the one with colorful fiberglass seats. The staff is very friendly and service is quick. Stop by and enjoy.“
“A good friend and I decided to have dinner here. I have to tell you, since the pandemic, I have slowly been going back to old favorites, and this is one of them. I really looked forward to trying this place again. Would it be the same? Would it be better, or worse? Well I have to say that they did not disappoint. I don't know if I missed coming here or if they just got that much better, but it was good!We definitely got there just in time because once we were seated, the place started getting very busy.The service was great in spite of how busy it got. George was our server and he was very helpful and accomidateing. Needless to say that what we ordered was outstanding.I definitely forgot how much I enjoyed this place. No question on whether or not I'm coming back because that's a big yes.Parking: Plenty of parking. No problem finding a spot.“
“What a gem hidden inside of a corner liquor store!Popped into here for lunch with my dad (a syrian man, born and immigrated, so he knows his arabic food).I had the chicken shish tawook plate, he had the falafel "tacos"Both items were excellent. The value was high, the service was friendly... and if I didn't mention it the food was great.Ambiance was kind of funny being in a liquor store to order, but i've had great food in all kinds of gas stations.. so why not?“
“My wife and I ordered their meat lovers and were both very satisfied with our choice. This was also our first time and wish we would have tried them sooner. The dough, sauce, cheese, and toppings were of excellent quality, and you can tell the owner cares about his business. We will be returning! ?“
“I was Looking for a spot to eat healthy today. Found this place. Entered this business established, was greeted and seated immediately. Menu's were given to us. Ordered a Greek Lamb Salad, flat steak dinner and wine. Took a bite of both food entrees. All was fresh and delicious, including the wine! Saturday evening was quite pleasant. A guitarist was playing the night away which made the ambiance great. The thing that stood out was the service. Our Waiter and the staff kept checking up on us and stating if we are good and if we needed anything else. This was ongoing on our dining experience here. This shows that their very adamant about the service given that reflect on their business. A tip worth giving. Not like those other locations where they barely put in any effort on customer service but expect you to tip 23% or more. I recommend this place in the Lakewood California area. You will get great tasting food and service. This is my go to for Greek food in this area.!“
“I love this restaurant! Every time I come here I am met with very kind workers and delicious food. It's always prepared fresh, and I easily come here five times a month. I love the ambience that this place offers, and I always feel at home! The workers always treat me so well, and I'll continue to recommend this place to my friends and family! Please go here! Also, Maggie is an incredible worker and always so kind! Thank you Maggie!“
“I've been here a few times and decided to try their pastrami sandwich. It was not what I expected. It was too gooey and saucy for a pastrami sandwich and skimpy on the meat. The pastrami itself was small pieces and shreds as opposed to slices. (Go somewhere that specializes in pastrami if that's what you're craving. ) I've had other sandwiches here particularly the Boss and Turkey Salad sandwich. Both are prepared perfectly with generous amounts of meat and veggies. Overall, wonderful service, great quality, other than the pastrami.“
“The food is hot, homemade, fresh and very tasty.I eat at Joe Peeps a lot and it is always good and tasty.You cant go wrong with their homemade food items.I even see the workers eating the food. Every body likes it.They have tons of regulars.If you habent tried their food it is time to give them a try.“
“I didn't know what to get..I allowed the cashier to recommend one of her favorites and I got it... Delicious ? I should have got water to drink with it. She did ask if I wanted their lemonade (I'll try next time) but instead I got the hibiscus tea...which was probably more healthy than tasty...“
“The best affordable sandwiches you'll ever find. Nice hidden gem in the community that provides really great quality in their sandwiches. I recommend #2 and #3. The portions are very decent for the price one sandwich can be split for 2ppl. Staff is always attentive and polite.“
“Hadn't had a cheese stuffed crust pizza in a very long time and I was definitely not disappointed. Pizza was very good. Tripple bacon and 3 different kinds at that.Also tried the wings a little small in size but the flavors they have are pretty good. Definitely coming “
