“This place is beyond any restaurant I have ever been to. The owners are so sweet and genuine about their service, they truly care about the enjoyment of their customers. The food is even better than the service. Fushion Grill has some of the best food I have ever tasted with good, fresh ingredients. You can tell it is made with love and care for the customer. Overall this place is fabulous, I have visited a few times over the years and every time is better than the last.“

“We randomly came across Lazy Dog Restaurant driving through Thousand Oaks on our way to Big Bear on the 4th of July weekend. We wanted to get some real food and a beer.

We parked in the parking lot across the street which had a fair amount of available parking.

We were able to get a seat right away. Service was quick and friendly. The menus are cool (leather wrapped). Tons of good food options. Good size meal. Pricing is very fair for the portion and quality.

We wanted to try a new beer and tried the Huckleberry Haze IPA and it was amazing. We ever got a 4 pack to go (yes they even sell it canned)! This beer was SO good that we HAD to stop back while driving home from Joshua Tree for lunch and of course, more of the Huckleberry beer. They also have a lunch special, a half sandwich, and a salad and other side like fries for around $12.“

“We had such a great experience at Urban Plates! The food was fresh, delicious, and came out quickly. The service was truly above and beyond. Haden, Shira, and Cynthia were all amazing—super friendly, attentive, and made us feel really welcomed. It’s rare to find a team that takes such good care of you, but they absolutely did. We’ll definitely be coming back!“

“Good eats and great ice cream“

“Eat inside was pretty good . You bet I’ll be back delicious 🤤“

“Urbane Café is hands down one of my favorite spots! This location truly feels like it’s run by a family — the whole team is incredibly accommodating, friendly, and welcoming. Service is always fast, and the food is consistently delicious with generous portion sizes. The value you get here is unbeatable with the quality of ingredients, the atmosphere, and the top-notch customer service.
Big shoutout to Danny, Xio, and the rest of the amazing staff — you always go above and beyond and make every visit such a great experience. I come here multiple times a week, and every time I leave happy and satisfied.“

“I just wanted to thank the owner and staff for your generosity and patience yesterday on your busiest day of the year. On a whim I decided to stop by. My family was super happy when I got home. Our boys decided every Friday will be Valentino's. And I couldn't agree more. Thank you again.“

“Located inside of Nordstrom at The Oaks Mall (on the 2nd floor), this restaurant is a nice little hideaway from all typical dining choices available when I work in TO. It's familar, and also nice, but not pretentious. The food and drinks are consistently good and on par with the other locations, and the service is great ( service may be even better than some other locations). Thank you for the pleasant service, wonderful food, and hideaway vibes in TO“

“We LOVE the Nachos!! The drinks could use someone with looser wrists, but the atmosphere is so nice; unless your goal is to get hammered, the rest of the visit more than makes up for it 🌴🍹“

“We had an amazing experience at Oka's Local Craft Kitchen & Bar! Our server, Kali, was absolutely fantastic—humble, down-to-earth, and incredibly helpful, making our visit even more enjoyable. The food was outstanding! We tried the Vegetable Pizza, Nachos, Blue Cheese Burger, and the Shrimp with Steak, and every dish was packed with flavor and cooked to perfection. Everything was truly delicious, and we can’t wait to come back for more. Highly recommend Oka’s for great food and exceptional service!“
