“The food was delicious and came out in a timely manner. Must try the cream cheese wantons, they have a lot of cream cheese/imitation crab and they’re delicious. Must also try the vegetable egg rolls and their broccoli beef. 10/10 recommend this place.“
“This place is great! I’ve been eating here since I’ve discovered it when I moved to cypress a year ago. The spam musubi’s are always great and today they offered amazing hospitality when my girlfriend cut her finger and the owner treated her wound with ointment and a bandaid! Amazing food and amazing service always!“
“From the start Cailyn was super helpful, incredible customer service. As a family that smokes at home we had high expectations to which they did not disappoint!Dino rib, brisket and Mac n Cheese were exceptional!The atmosphere was great, the restaurant was clean, although they didn't have waiters, the staff was helpful.Thank you Cailyn and the awesome guy with the cute hat for all your help! :)Definitely we're returning!“
“First time coming here, we ordered the kimchi fried rice, beef galbi plate, and grilled shrimp plate - it was all soo delicious! Probably the best kimchi fried rice I've ever had, and it had an overeasy egg! I got it to go but it was quick and made fresh. Will definitely be back!“
“We came across this place on Yelp and let me just say we really enjoyed this kbbq! We've been to quite a few, but this has made it to the top of our list! The variety, and the semi buffet is greattttt! We usually don't like bulgogi from past experiences but they have a Hawaiian marinated bulgogi and it is amazing !!! We will forsure be returning, they also have a ramen option for a soup ... we'll definitely be back for that one! The service was great, they constantly came for a grill change and definitely helps out so we weren't constantly asking for one! 1000/10 recommend !“
“Their Naengmyeon stands out with an outstanding taste in both LA and OC. The service is commendable, earning them stars. The servers are knowledgeable, anticipating our needs before we even call them. While it may be pricey, the experience is undoubtedly worth it.“
“Title: Hidden Gem in Seal Beach!I recently discovered this hidden gem in Seal Beach after my favorite restaurant closed down. What a pleasant surprise it was!Review:My wife and I stumbled upon this restaurant while enjoying a leisurely stroll in the downtown area, and we were blown away by the exceptional service and food quality. The Angus Beef Brisket was absolutely delicious, cooked to perfection, and bursting with flavor. The Brussels sprouts and the biscuit were excellent additions to our meal, adding a delightful touch to our dining experience.Atmosphere:The weather was delightful, adding to the charm of our dining experience. The ambiance of the restaurant was inviting, and we felt right at home from the moment we walked in.Dining Experience:We were fortunate to arrive just before the rush as there were no empty tables when we visited last Saturday. It's a good thing we beat the crowd - timing truly is everything!Conclusion:I have no hesitation in awarding this restaurant a well-deserved 5-star rating. We will definitely be returning on our next visit to Seal Beach. If you're looking for a new favorite spot with top-notch food and service, look no further!“
“This was my first time eating here, and I wasn't sure what to order. They let me sample the chicken and the beef birria. It was very good. The meat is tender and they have great prices. When your in town, stop here, you will be happy that you did.Vegetarian options: Beans, rice and they serve ramen. You can customize and leave the meat out if you want. Taco, burrito, and quesadilla You can put avocado beans and rice and cheese.“
“I think overall it went over my expectations. Definitely getting your money's worth of experience. Most of the side dishes you get your own which is great if there are specific types of side dishes you get a lot with kbbq, and options are really great. Each of the meat orders comes smaller compared to what you usually get in all you can eat kbbq, which I see as a good thing as you can control more portions and less food waste. The food quality is what you'd expect, it's not gonna blow your mind but still really good for the price you are paying. Only complaint is that I wish there was more seating provided for wait, we went on Sunday 5pm for two people and waited in car for an hour.“
“The food was Soo good. The place felt like we were eating at someone's home but the food was top restaurant quality. We'll definitely be back. We got the bacon appetizer and my husband got the tri tip and eggs and I got the sticky ribs. Definitely recommend.“
“This restaurant is a gem! Super friendly and helpful service and great choices. We enjoyed catching up with our family while sharing a large room with others surrounded by tasteful decorations. If there were 6 stars, I would have given them!“
“BBQ upscale fast food. Cool concept, decor and menu options. Good amount of meat for the price....especially on the plates. Included sides were small portions. Order off to the register on the side once walking in, which was confusing for a first timer. Personally, the meat was much too salty to be a regular.“
“Wood Ranch consistently delivers excellent service accompanied by top-level amazing meals! My family's favorite restaurant. You can't go wrong with anything on the menu, but I say give the blackend Sea Bass a try. You'll be glad you did ?!“
“Really enjoyed this restaurant! It had big portions, great service and fantastic food! Got their garlic chicken and it did not disappoint!! Took about 10 minutes from ordering to getting our food. Lots of outdoor seating but it’s still very nice and they bring their food to you. Would definitely go back!“
“(Disclaimer, i do not know the difference between "authentic" korean food and "fast food" korean food) i've been going back and forth about this review whether or not this was a 4 or 5 star review. I went ahead with 5 stars because ultimately the flavor prevailed. i want you to imagine Panda Express or Chipotle but KBBQ. My suggestion is to actually have customers walk the line vs order at a kiosk and then wait for your number. Ultimately I feel like the wait will be similar and it's visually appealing to the customer knowing the last piece is just to pay and you'll enjoy your food. Prices were reasonable however you get more veggies vs. meat. The favor is ultimately top tier. I prefer my bulgogi to be with a slight char but this was authentic (i think) The banchan (not pictured) was fresh and so good! The spicy cucumber and fish cakes are my favorite! I can eat those with white rice and be done! This place needs all the flowers because it is unique in its own way and very good. Peeked in the back of house and saw what looked like quality ingredients. (based on videos i've seen on social media about korean cooking lol)“
“I have loved this place for 20 years. While some things have changed, it’s still the great quality & delicious wok I remember from my first time. This place is fantastic & even though I no longer live nearby, I still make time to eat here every time I’m in the area.Amazing noodles, great service, worth it.“
“Food: 5/5 highly recommend, their combo is very good. Great portion and price. They also have lunch menu, which comes with a side of your choosing. Service: 5/5 very welcoming. Ambiance: 5/5 they have a couple tables for dine in. But, most of the time people would order takeout or call in for a pick up.“
“King Chang left an indelible mark with its exceptional service and culinary prowess. The dedication to customer satisfaction was evident from the moment we stepped in, even amidst the Saturday night rush. The servers went above and beyond, exhibiting attentiveness and kindness that elevated the entire dining experience. It's rare to find such a perfect balance of efficiency and warmth.The highlight of the evening was undoubtedly the large intestines, surpassing the small ones in both flavor and texture. The meticulous preparation showcased a culinary expertise that set King Chang apart. Each bite was a journey through rich and savory notes, leaving an undeniable impression. The smaller combo, designed for 2 to 3 people, proved to be ample, catering to varying appetites.The variety of Korean side dishes provided a delightful symphony of flavors, and the soybean paste stood out as a star among stars. Its depth of flavor added a distinctive touch to the meal. As a connoisseur of Korean cuisine, I can confidently say that King Chang serves the best intestines in town, a true gastronomic delight. I eagerly anticipate my return to savor more culinary treasures from their menu and to bask in the warmth of their impeccable service. King Chang is undoubtedly a gem in the realm of Korean dining, deserving of accolades for its outstanding offerings and commitment to culinary excellence.“
“This place is so good.Food: the food selection is chef's kiss. The glass meat cuts are generous and the quality of the meats are very good. They have a good selection of side dishes but one thing I always look for is the steam egg...and they have it!Price: The price is unbeatable for the quality cuts that we get to eat. We paid $27.99/person for the A&B menu.Service: We arrived a little after they opened so there was no waiting time and the waiters were super attentive.Dessert: Their ice cream is so good. It's taste just like Chick-fil-A's ice cream.Con: the only cone is that their tongs and scissors could be replaced with newer ones. The scissor was very dull and couldn't cut the meat nicely. The tongs were stretched opened or not align so it was hard to get a good clamp on the meat.Overall, we still love it!“
“I loved this place! The service was so good! The man at the counter was super kind and he was really helpful. The food was good but was soggy and I thought it could be better. I loved how the roomed looked and it was pretty chill. You should definitely come here!“
“Great chicken and the best fried pickles sauces were good my favorite was the garlic parm and least was ks bbq tasted like kc masterpiece. The place was clean. Little loud big party but I'm fine with that. My beer was fabulous. The service was great no issues.“
“Good small family owned spot. The staff is super friendly and helpful if you have questions. Theresa helped us and was knowledgeable about the menu and made good suggestions. I see her help others make selections as well. Not only was she helpful but had a mailed for everyone that came through the door. The BBQ smells delicious but we went for a cold sandwich. Next time will definitely try the BBQ. We got The Guido which is a fully loaded Italian sandwich with Ham, Mortadella and Soppressata . It's everything you look for in an Italian sandwich, the meat is quality and the ham has a nice smokiness. The bread is super fresh and soft and fluffy. The acidity from the dressing cut the fatty delicious nature of the cured meats perfectly. They have a good selection of soda's that are made with real can sugar which is nice. They have a small patio out front that is dog friendly. Definitely will be back for both the food and the great service.“
“The servers r nice but the guy was meh. However the food is just so amazing it makes up for everything. The Banchan thick 10 day age samgyupsal and vibes are amazing!!! The line is super long so get there at a weird hour highly recommend!! Kimchi jjigae is so good and gogi melts in your mouth ?“
“Absolutely mind blowing food! 100% I have traveled a lot and tried food different places but this one was the best experience so far. We ordered ribs and burger. Both were made to perfection. Highly recommend.The owner himself and his employees were very hospitable and welcoming. Thank you for such a pleasant experience.“
“I have NO problems with this place. The only issue is I eat so much until I'm literally like a stuffed sausage. ??? my favorite KBBQ place to go to. You won't be disappointed✌???????Parking: The place gets packed, get there when it opens. It fills fast. ✌???“
“There are several platters available. Beef and Pork. The plate for two includes so much food and is plenty for two as indicated. Refills of banchan are available. Their kimchi is a MUST. They offer cilantro which I don't see in most KBBQ spots and it surprisingly pairs well with the rest of the food. The staff grills your food and their menu indicates for patrons not to tip.“
“First timer and was very pleased with the quality and diversity of the meats and side offerings. Everything was delicious and we enjoyed an unusually long and well respected 3 hour meal with family members we haven't seen in quite a while. Never felt rushed to exit and service was exceptional -- have been in very high end restaurants where server timing was not as good. At Shinobu, service seemed spot on, always available but not intrusive and we never felt rushed even with the 90 minute AYCE reality. Very much plan to come back even though we live an hour away.“
“Nice little location in the food court, I ordered the bulgogi rice bowl, and it was really good! A little pricey but they do give plenty of food, you won't leave hungry! Will come again when I'm in the area and try something else.“
“So bomb!!! The food is so delicious and you don’t even have to drive to Garden Grove for it. They do get busy though so you might have to wait. I think it’s a great place with good portions and reasonable pricing. I’d love to eat here everyday.“
“I've never tried Lao food, especially their BBQ, but this is my third time driving from Arcadia to savor it. Every meat piece boasts a distinct blend of flavors, making it one of the finest Asian BBQ experiences. The sauce, in particular, captivates me with its rich taste. Without a doubt, it's the top restaurant at Rodeo 39!“
“The food is pretty good, not the best pho though. Love that they have a Mongolian BBQ here. The service is good. The prices were ok. Maybe the portion of pho was a bit small although I haven't had pho in about a year so maybe it's changed everywhere.“
“The beef chow fun is literally, no exaggeration, the best plate of noodles I've ever had in my life. Not only the kind of flavorful that goes through your whole body, but the beef was tender as butter. The hot and sour soup was also exemplary. I'm kind of a man of habit and it takes a lot to add a restaurant to my regular favorites rotation; Fu Plus jumped to the top of the list and it's likely to stay there. Holy cow.“
“I had the pulled pork nachos and chili, both were top notch. The chili was spicy excellent flavor.April 7, 2024This time I had the spare ribs. Highest grade on all of flavor and product quality and preparation.Parking: Parking shouldn't be a problem but during weekday lunch hours parking can be a challenge.Kid-friendliness: Bench seating for perhaps 25.“
“Great place for Thai food if you are in the area. They make flavorful and savory options with mix spice levels as requested. Staff is super friendly and clean restroom. Limited parking spots closeby in the complex.Vegetarian options: You can always substitute meat for veggies and or tofu.“
“Chicken tenders: my husband and I agreed that they were the best chicken tenders we ever had ! So juicy and tender!!Corn cheese: a little too sweet and watery. But super cheesy!JR. wings: not battered and so savory!Food was 10/10 service was on point, what more can you ask for.“
“I've been to a lot of fancy steakhouses, and I can tell the difference between good quality meat, good flavoring, and good execution! Madera's rib eye prime steak was just that. It was tender, flavorful, and cooked perfectly! One of the best steaks I have ever had! Also tried their sausage with hatched chilies and it was just wonderful. We literally licked the plate clean! Yesterday, I got a carne asada wet burrito for lunch. OMG!!! Literally the BEST wet burrito I have ever had, EVER!!! The meat was so thick and tender and they do not skimp out on the meat. It's loaded with meat and a pretty big portion as well. I highly recommend any one who wants delicious food and a great environment for live music, to come to Maderas steakhouse! You won't be disappointed!“
“Eunice! ??? All I can say is wow! Absolutely the sweetest person ever. I’m so happy to come back after a while that I haven’t been to this place. I’ve been here since the beginning when they used to close at 2pm. I love how cozy this place is & she made my sister and I feel so welcomed. The best customer service, the best atmosphere, & most importantly how warm she was even coming here around 10:30PM. This is a gem of a place to go to so whenever I have the chance to visit, we always try to. I’m so absolutely happy with Eunice & will love to see her here whenever I dine here. Ultra marbled steak & my bean sprout salad is my absolute fave! Thanks again for the hospitality! Appreciate you ?? ?? ???“
“Love this BBQ place!!! The smell as I walked in brought back great memories of having a backyard bbq. The staff was great was greeted and helped out by Manda and the owner. Awesome hospitality from both of them. Very attentive to my needs. I had the brisket and a side of coleslaw, by far the best brisket I’ve had as most tends to be dry and tough. Santa Maria bbq is spot on cant wait to be back to try some of there other menu items as they all look good. Great sauces as well i had the mango habanero and some sweet brown sugar sauce. If your craving bbq you have to come check this place out.“
“We went today for their Grand Opening. The restaurant is clean. The Owner (Carmela), the one who got our order(Bianca), and all the staff are friendly. We got Baked bangus, Beef ribs, Tuna Belly, and Liempo. All tastes delicious. Bibingkinitan is very good, its still moist even when you reheat it on the microwave. Don't forget to get WOWTAHO! Tastes exactly like philippines. The Best Taho in SOCAL.“
“What a lovely quaint Thai restaurant I stumbled upon. I was in the area for a delivery and stopped in to have some lunch. It was very peaceful in there, the staff were friendly. I ordered the glass noodle soup and it was very flavorful, not to mention only $8! They also give you a generous amount of chicken in the soup which is always a plus. Overall great experience.“
“Bought a tray of meat for Christmas Eve dinner. Super good and will definitely be buying again for the next family gathering. A lot of the reviews say they are pricey but for a small business I think it was fairly priced. Would rather give our money supporting small businesses than catering Lucille’s or other big companies.“
“Meat quality is so damn delicious! The Short rib and skirt steak were our faves, we also tried the A5 wagyu and it was melt in your mouth delicious as well. Don't skip on the cartilage and sausage, if you're looking for great pairings to go with your beer. The Yukhae (raw beef dish) was super delicious and I'm not a raw beef person in general. I would definitely order that again though. Get here early, about 15min before they open to avoid the lines. It's a small restaurant with mostly 4-tops , I saw maybe 1 table that could accommodate a party of 8-10 max, so if you have a larger party be prepared to sit separately. The service is great, they were on point with water refills and checking to see if we wanted to order any additional items. They have a weekday special for $67 where you can try 2 of our favorite meats + their miso chicken thigh, and the veggies it comes with are minimal (1pc pumpkin, couple pieces of bell pepper, and a slice of carrot). I heard their yookaejang (spicy beef and vegetable soup) was good but we didn't try it this time. Also, don't sleep on their black sesame and yuzu ice cream!“
“I have been *quite* delinquent at keeping up with converting review drafts to actual reviews - but I feel especially bad seeing this one un-posted still, given it was just in the local news last week, they're putting their popup on temporary-but-indefinite pause because it wasn't getting enough business... hopefully they do reopen, ideally in a proper space, because their bbq is *great*. I hadn't ever been to their now-closed official popup location, but after having heard how great they were for the previous year, I finally had a chance to try them over the summer, at the Beachwood anniversary event. I loved that I was able to buy meat in quarter-pound increments, so I could try two of my favorite bbq meats, brisket and pulled pork. The pulled pork was great; the brisket was probably the best brisket I've had from a bbq place in Long Beach (it's still not Franklin, but *nothing* is Franklin). I also tried their mac & cheese - they only had one size, for $8, but that size was *large*. The mac & cheese was also great. Seriously friendly people, too, so I really hope they succeed in their quest for a brick-and-mortar spot. (And that the quality is as good once they do, both so I don't have to give them a worse review later, and because I would like to have that brisket again! And because they're great people and they deserve to succeed, of course.)“
“Absolutely phenomenal experience at Manpuku BBQ! From the moment we stepped in, the manager's family-oriented approach was evident, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. The attentiveness of the staff, led by the manager, truly elevated our dining experience. The food was exquisite served with care. Whether you're a BBQ aficionado or just looking for a memorable meal, Manpuku BBQ is a must-visit. Five stars all the way!“
“The food was really good and our waiter was very kind and attentive. It was a really busy night when we arrived but we were able to be seated quickly. Our order came out quickly but there was a delay in my drink. Once it came out the waiter let me know it was on the house since I had to wait a while to receive it. It was still delicious.“
“First time visit. Went with Korean friend. We had one of their set meals. Per friend, the food was more traditional than other Korean restaurants. It was good but I was not used to some of the flavors. The restaurant was very clean and decor was beautiful. Service was excellent though my friend did all the talking in Korean. With tip, total was -$180 for two and we did not have any alcohol.“
“Very clean and the food is so delicious for such a low price, I 101% recommend coming here with friends or family!Vegetarian options: Has a lot of veggies.Kid-friendliness: If your child is picky and doesn’t want to eat the noodles, you can get them other items like fries, chicken wings/bites, mozzarella sticks, or dumplings!“
“I always have a fantastic time here even at general admission. This time around I upgraded our tickets to VIP and it didn't disappoint, it was my son's Bday and he had a blast. The House of Blues staff was awesome Julius the manager was great! Thank you, House of Blues for a great memorable time.“
“Not AYCE but lots of side dishes including cheese corn, poached eggs, another egg dish, bean paste soup or kimchi stew. Very good and attentive service and excellent staff. The unmarinated beef was the best. The chadol was a little tough. But the rice paper, pickled radish, dipping sauce, and salad made the meal delicious.“
“BOMB CHICKEN ?. One of the best spots around. Crispy, flavorful, and tender chicken. Yummy fries! We got half Golden Original Chicken, half Secret Sauce Chicken, and Cheesling Fries. A bit pricier than other chicken places, but it’s high quality food. They have milk tea, tea, lemonade, and alcoholic drinks. They have a white board that doubles as a privacy screen and for doodling, the marker is included. I liked how they give you a little trash can for you to put your chicken bones and trash in. Our waitress was very polite & nice. Shoutout to her. To-go and dine in options. Plenty of places to park. Moderate wait time. I would come here again!“
