Tsuru Ichi Wagyu Fountain Valley Japanese • $$$$

“Dining at Tsuruichi Wagyu is an unforgettable experience for anyone who appreciates the artistry and flavor of premium Japanese beef. From the moment you step inside, you’re welcomed by an elegant yet cozy atmosphere that sets the stage for a meal that is both refined and deeply satisfying.

The star of the menu is, without a doubt, the Wagyu beef. Each cut is carefully selected for its marbling and tenderness, and the quality truly shines through in every bite. The A5 Wagyu was nothing short of extraordinary—rich, buttery, and melt-in-your-mouth tender. Whether grilled to perfection at your table or prepared in one of the chef’s expertly crafted dishes, the beef here is a masterclass in flavor and texture.

The Wagu experience is highly recommended for those who want to explore the full range of what Tsuruichi Wagyu has to offer. Each course is thoughtfully presented, highlighting the versatility of Wagyu in both traditional and innovative preparations. The pairing of sauces and sides, from the delicate ponzu to the house-made pickles, enhances the meat without overshadowing its natural flavor.

The service at Tsuruichi Wagyu is impeccable. The staff is attentive and well-versed in the nuances of Wagyu, providing helpful recommendations and ensuring that each guest’s preferences are met. The attention to detail, from the presentation of the dishes to the timing of each course, adds to the overall experience, making it feel truly special.

The ambiance is intimate yet sophisticated, making it an ideal spot for a romantic dinner or a special celebration. The combination of luxurious food, exceptional service, and a serene atmosphere makes Tsuruichi Wagyu a standout destination for any Wagyu enthusiast.

Overall, Tsuruichi Wagyu offers a dining experience that is both luxurious and deeply satisfying. It’s a place where every element, from the quality of the ingredients to the elegance of the presentation, is designed to celebrate the art of Wagyu. I highly recommend it for anyone looking to indulge in one of Japan’s finest culinary traditions.”

“I had an amazing dining experience at Halalglu Turkish Restaurant in Costa Mesa. Not only is the food authentic, fresh, and bursting with flavor, but the staff is truly incredible!

Every dish was cooked to perfection. The spices and fresh ingredients brought out the best in every bite. The atmosphere was welcoming and cozy, making it a great spot for any occasion.

As a halal restaurant, it’s also a top choice for those looking for delicious and quality halal options. I highly recommend Halalglu to anyone in Costa Mesa looking for outstanding Turkish cuisine and impeccable service. I’ll definitely be returning!”

This a fast casual establishment so you have to order at the register first and they bring your meal to the table when its ready. The staff at the register are always polite and will help you with the vast menu choices if needed. The kabobs and salads are outstanding and don't forget to try the delicious chicken soup which is freshly made every day. Portion sizes are generous as well. Manager Joe and his staff will take of you and your dining party with the same level of attention you would receive in a full-service restaurant. Those of you that read my reviews know I'm picky and I don't give out accolades unless they are well deserved, and they certainly are in the case of this location of Chicken Maison.”

“This place is the real deal. Easily one of the best fish and chips I've had in Orange County if not the best so far. You might convince yourself the near $30 price tag at places like santa monica seafood would give you better fish and chips but it's not the case. the batter here is crispy and much more delicate. not heavy and greasy like the beer battered options. I paid $12 for 3 giant pieces of fish. the value is fantastic and the quality is good. only complaints are that the inside can use a thorough dusting (don't look at the fan) and that the fries have potential to be a lot better. tbh if the fries resembled something closer to European chips I would pay another $10 for this plate happily.”

“An Evening at Kin Izakaya: Where Tradition Meets Ambiance In the culinary haven that our city embodies, Kin Izakaya emerges as a sanctuary of authentic Japanese flavors combined with the convivial spirit typical of Japan’s iconic gastropubs. It’s here that tradition and modernity collide to create not just a meal, but an experience worth savoring. The moment you step through the doors of Kin Izakaya, you’re greeted by an atmosphere that’s both lively and intimately comforting. The ambient lighting, coupled with rustic décor and understated oriental motifs, offers a welcoming reprieve from the city’s hustle and bustle. The soft murmur of patrons engaged in animated conversation sets the backdrop for an authentic izakaya experience. Kin Izakaya’s menu is a harmonious blend of traditional Japanese fare and innovative culinary creations. The tapas-style dishes, perfect for sharing, encourage a communal dining experience. From the delicate flavors of their sashimi to the robust, savory notes found in their yakitori selection, there’s a delightful complexity in each dish presented. The agedashi tofu, with its perfect crispy exterior giving way to silken tofu within, is a testament to the chef’s prowess in honoring traditional flavors while serving contemporary palates.”

You feel refreshed when eating their chicken butter masala and find it different than many places.

Chicken curry was also refreshing made from home masalas, light on stomach and chicken well tendered and not hold.

Prices are also affordable to buy 2-3 curries at $15. Highly recommend stopping by if you are driving on 405 and needs something quick.”

When a mistake has happened (infrequently), they have resolved the issues wonderfully. The bottled beer is also cheap.

Some of my favorites include the baked mussels, kalamari, dragon roll, yellowtail sashimi, fisherman roll, fire in the hole roll. I've tried most appetizers/rolls and have liked everything.

BUT - I will say I've had better banh khots that are a bit heartier and Maybe made with more attention, meaning ones that have the other Toppings on it. I was so surprised when the Shrimp one came out and it was basically just batter and shrimp. So basic. It was good!!! But basic is all. And it matched what we paid for it. So I'm not complaining. I'm just saying that be aware that it's that type of banh khot and not like others in more upscale restaurants. It's 5 stars based on the style of banh khot this place is known for. Service was ok. They were busy. There was a wait. I'd say it matched the ambiance and price point.”

Nep cafe doesn't open until 9am on a Saturday so it brought me here to Amarith Farmhouse. This is a nice little cozy breakfast spot. I got the pandan waffles and the pandan flavor was pretty good, the waffle is a tad dry, but with some syrup you're good.The matcha lavender latte was also pretty satisfying. Their pies and donuts looked good, but I didn't get to try any of these. Perhaps next time.”

Papa Z's 9121 Garfield Ave, Fountain Valley Brunch • $

“On the whole, it was a very pleasant meal with kind attentive staff and a clean interior. Pastrami was good, but saltier than I’m accustomed to which is fine since that will happen at 50% of places that serve it. The chili dog was good but I wish the cheese was more melted. Other than minor nitpicks, it’s generally one of the better fast food diners out there.”

“7 Leaves is my go-to for milk tea. This place is beautiful when you walk in, absolutely love the theme.

They have a huge variety of flavors for macarons and milk tea, plus lots of other drinks are served too. My favorite is the Taro milk tea.
The drinks and macarons are very flavorful. A lot of other milk tea I have from different places tastes more watery than the tea at 7 Leaves, they do an excellent job with their drinks.

However the macarons are a little bit out of the expected price range, but still worth trying out!

The service is very nice and hardworking, keeping the place clean, and most importantly, having customers leave satisfied!”

If you need a place to work you should apply to work at this store under this Manager and Leads with these coworkers.”

Richard's Cookie Jar 10130 Warner Ave A, Fountain Valley Bakery • $

“I knew this merchant thanks to the “too good to go” application. This craftsman is not really close to where I live but given the extremely positive comments whether on Google or on the application I said to myself that it might be a good idea to go there.
The shop doesn't look like much from the outside and the decoration is very simplistic once inside.
Once you have tasted their products you will understand why everyone loves them. The donuts are fresh and tasty just as much as the other pastries available for purchase. Even at the end of the day just before closing, they are still just as good.
A little smile would have been a plus, but that’s not what we were there for.
I will definitely come back to try their cookies.
I highly recommend it, because on top of that, the prices are really affordable.

Vegetarian options: There are products available for vegetarians

Dietary restrictions: Ask the staff

Parking: Parking right in front of the store, there is often space

Kid-friendliness: Yes

As a halal restaurant, it’s also a top choice for those looking for delicious and quality halal options. I highly recommend Halalglu to anyone in Costa Mesa looking for outstanding Turkish cuisine and impeccable service. I’ll definitely be returning!”

This a fast casual establishment so you have to order at the register first and they bring your meal to the table when its ready. The staff at the register are always polite and will help you with the vast menu choices if needed. The kabobs and salads are outstanding and don't forget to try the delicious chicken soup which is freshly made every day. Portion sizes are generous as well. Manager Joe and his staff will take of you and your dining party with the same level of attention you would receive in a full-service restaurant. Those of you that read my reviews know I'm picky and I don't give out accolades unless they are well deserved, and they certainly are in the case of this location of Chicken Maison.”

If you’re in Orange County and craving legit Mediterranean flavors, Ikram Bakery is where it’s at. Their shawarma is juicy, packed with spice, and wrapped in the freshest bread. The falafel is perfectly crispy outside, soft and herby inside—no dry bites here.

Then there’s the baklava—flaky n just the right amount of sweet. Pair it with their simit, a fresh, sesame-crusted Turkish bagel, or a bowl of sütlaç (Turkish rice pudding) if you’re in the mood for something creamy and comforting, suggest always take some to go.

And if you have time? Sit down with a cup of their Turkish coffee—strong, rich, and the perfect way to end your meal. Tried it once, and now I’m a customer for life. 🔥🥙🥯☕🇹🇷”
