Highly recommend the filet mignon with asparagus and the steamed chicken (my go to orders), as well as the arctic surf clams. Very tasty and such a pleasant atmosphere .“

“We had a great dinner at Fujiya Ramen tonight! The food was delicious—especially the yakitori, ramen, and sake. Everything was fresh, flavorful, and came out quickly.

What impressed us most was the service. There was only one server taking care of the entire dining room, but they were incredibly friendly, attentive, and efficient. Even though the restaurant was busy, we never felt neglected.

Overall, it was a wonderful experience, and we’ll definitely be back. Highly recommend!“

“★★★★★

Urban Pocha was such a great find! The food was flavorful and satisfying, the atmosphere was lively and welcoming, and the service was friendly and attentive. Everything we ordered was delicious, and the overall experience was fantastic. I’d definitely come back again and recommend Urban Pocha to anyone looking for a fun and tasty dining experience in Pasadena!“

“This is a delicious Chinese restaurant! Staff were really friendly and helpful. Parking is very limited because it is on a tiny lot but I came early so parking wasn't an issue. It appears there is free street parking. The food was amazing and reasonably priced. I had the Cheung fun with peanuts, Cheung fun with egg, shrimp fried rice, this green dessert, and tofu wrapped around rice roll. Everything was delicious. Cheung fun and tofu wrapped around rice roll were my favorite. The Cheung fun was thin and the sauce was so delicious! The tofu was crispy and it had some garlic inside and it was so delicious. The waitress brought out an extra sauce for my Cheung fun without me asking. They were very attentive. Restaurant was also really clean. I live in Thousand Oaks but needed to come into this area for business and decided to give this place a try. Well worth it and I will be back again next time I am in town. I also purchased another Cheung fun with peanuts to go and my daughters loved it and they are picky eaters.“

“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!“

“Ever since I tried their curry plate, this place has been my go-to—it's honestly delicious! I haven't tried anything else yet, but the staff is always kind and the service is super fast. My only minor complaint is that they recently changed their containers, so it feels like a bit less food, but honestly, can you blame them in this economy?“

“Not salty, good HK food to bring parents to and hang out to catch up. Their desserts...warm ginger 🫚 milk, double milk pudding is real good. tofu W/ginger is silky.
Squab Claypot rice also good.
Chicken mushroom Claypot was good we came back twice in a week!“

“very good comfort food that you can really dig into<3“

“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!“

“I recommend for my friends and partners, a suitable place....nice meal🥰“

“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.“

“Hidden gem, their beef chow fun has that signature “wok hei” char. Also, authentic Cantonese cuisine outside the SGV? Sign me up. This place deserves to be packed even though I want to keep it a secret. I recommend their claypot rice, beef chow fun, shrimp scrambled eggs with rice, Canto-style fried chicken…quite a lot of their dishes actually. The chef has worked in other legit restaurants in the SGV before like Delicious Food Corner.

Small strip mall parking, limited spots but I had no problem parking there.“

“If you want to discover the best Vietnamese cuisine in WC you’re in the right spot.

Pho Golden Noodle and Grill offers a good authentic Vietnamese cuisine. They’re located in a Haven City plaza. Their menu highlights the rich, aromatic broths and perfectly cooked noodles that define authentic pho. I had a Charbroiled chicken vermicelli x hot tea. I liked the freshness and flavor of their food. Similarly, their hot tea was a perfect match.

Service is spot on. Staff are cordial and professional. Prices are competitive and affordable. Atmosphere is relaxing with spacious dining tables and seats. Overall, it’s a nice spot to eat good.“

“Finally an Authentic Thai joint in Pasadena! Such a great experience coming in and met one of the new manager who was incredibly kind and is making a comfortable environment to go along with the yummy food. They also have a few special treats that were new to me, but were DEFINITELY worth trying. I’ll be back soon!“

“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“

“Service was fast, friendly and very helpfull....food was also great by the way. I came on a weekend and it was very busy and had to wait but still was well worth it.“

“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!“

“The food is priced on the expensive end, but that is to be expected for attraction food. Not that I minded anyway, because my entire meal was filling (the portion sizes are MASSIVE) and delicious. Well seasoned, served hot, and promptly arrived even during the height of a lunch rush. The atmosphere is unbeatable“

“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.

“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.“

“Today we had grilled fish at Liu Roast Fish (San Gabriel). The two of us ordered a mildly spicy black cod. The flavor was authentic, and the fish was very fresh. It had great color, aroma, and taste, really whetting the appetite. The staff were friendly, gave detailed explanations of the menu, and the environment was clean and comfortable. Whenever we come to Los Angeles, California, this is the restaurant we must visit to enjoy a feast.“

“Had a Taro Milk Tea. Satisfies a craving and not too bad for the price. Have been here years so familiar with the drinks and they won't be a must have. Just moreso convenient and accessible. Keep in mind they prefer cash, using credit requires a $.50 charge.

Parking: Small plaza. But decent amount of parking for a quick stop.“

“Honestly, I just DoorDash this because it looked healthy and well balanced. And I’m so glad that I did! I got the protein packed bowl which had tofu, shredded chicken, and shredded beef and it was just pure deliciousness. I’m not really fond of tofu much, but there was so much flavor packed into each tofu bite. It was hard to not love and crave.

I also got the Wagyu bowl and that was equally as delicious!! Every bite is an addictive burst of flavor.“

“Muy buena comida y buena atención!💯“

“This is my new favorite hang out spot for popcorn chicken. The prices are very very good and drinks are decent though. The drinks are very sweet so make sure to adjust the sugar levels. Everybody and their mamas out here so it does get very busy so be patient. They only have 2 workers.“

“We loved this restaurant, service, and their foods! Special offer when your order 5 dishes, you will get the 5th one on the house. 10 dishes, then you get 2 dishes free! Friendly staff! You can also call in to make a reservation over the phone.“

“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.“

“I come here usually every morning. The food is not like usual chinese take out in a way that its not super greasey but actually healthy with a good amount of variety. They also give soup as a side.

The lemon tea is also awesome for one buck.“

“Always a great time at Big Ma’s Kitchen. It’s my go to place when I’m in the sgv area. Food is great, service is great, and it’s affordable. The owner is a very nice and sometimes remembers me when I come by. I’ll definitely be back.“

“Hard to say what was better between the staff and the food. The staff was extremely attentive and knowledgeable regarding the menu. They answered all the questions and provided extra information as well. We had the All You Can Eat and it was a fantastic decision, as we were able to try most of the menue. All dishes were amazing and we came out ahead vs a la carte. Highly recommended.“

“There are a lot of amazing restaurants in Los Angeles. The Barn is my favorite.

The concept: a no frill take on the very best of Asian foods from Japan, China and Korea.

Service: the service at the Barn is amazing. The waiters that work there are all cool and welcoming when you come in, although,
It’s not a red carpet kind of place m, they know you are there for the food! They’ve managed to reduce a number of steps which allows you to get your foods faster. Ordering is done on your mobile device via a QR code by your table. Almost as soon as you ‘submit your order,’ food starts arriving! I absolutely love this and wish more restaurants would adopt this. The waiters regularly come by and are always more than happy to grab something out missed it. Clicking ‘request check’ on the mobile device and they will bring the ticket by promptly.

Food:
The absolute highlight of the barn is the chefs creations. The Green Beans are absolutely to die for. I don’t know what the special ingredients they use are, but my mouth is watering thinking about this speciality! They offer yakitori; the teriyaki chicken is a favorite along with the wagyu beef. The bacon wrapped asparagus is on the regular order list, along with the cheese corn which is some of the best I’ve had. I don’t get it every time I’m there but the spicy firecracker chicken wings are amazing!

Ambiance:
A single row of tables line the restaurant adorn with cool decorations throughout the restaurant. One of my favorite things about visiting the barn is the eclectic choice of music they play which changes up every night.

Wish I could give The Barn 35 out of 5 stars but they only allow me to select five stars. Hope you get to try it out and enjoy it as well!“

“We had excellent tempura shrimp, egg rolls & chicken fried rice here! It was so tasty! We enjoyed it immensely! The last time I had tempura shrimp was in Japan, and it was exceptional. This tempura wasn't far behind. We will definitely be back!“

“Love all the food and the drinks are great too. Just afraid it will get too busy at lunchtime and no seat for me! :)“

“Some of the best dumplings I’ve ever had. I loved the pork dumplings. The vegan ones are outstanding too. I’ve gotten them 3 occasions now. I will definitely get them whenever they are nearby.“
