“🔥🔥 🔥 REMON, YOU HAVE CHANGED THE GAME!!! 💥💥 💥 MIND-BLOWN 🤯 ? … ✅ ✅✅ I’m sooo in awe of the experience I just had at his restaurant, literally minutes ago. He literally CURED ME with one of THE MOST AROMATIC, FLAVORFUL, & DISHES EVER! Tas2Go… has REDEFINED: … comfort food, … fast food, … authenticity, … wholesomeness, … small business, … deliciousness, … high quality ingredients, … passion-inspired dishes, & … start-up exponential growth! (and growing) This is one of those foodie experiences you just have to have to say that you lived!!! My senses are have been in high alert since I first bit into my hawawshi! It’s like haunting 👻 me how immediate my senses were infused with a “ratatouille” ✨of flavors and aromas! As I was driving away, I debated turning back for seconds and still am as we’re quickly approaching closing time in 52 minutes and counting!!!! Will definitely be back (as I cringe thinking this is my newest addiction and inevitably where all my money will go)! Well done, Remon! Well done! 🏆”

“Tteokboki like you never had before
If you're a fan of tteokbiki then this place elevates that experience.
From the customization and selection, it was a delicious experience .
If I had a choice between fried chicken and tteokbiki ( they sell both) i would normally eat more chicken.
But in this instance, I kept going back for tteokbiki more and more, completely forgetting the chickens existence.
This isn't do downgrade the chicken, the chicken was absolutely delicious, but I kept going back for more rice cakes.
Would visit again”

Lately, they’ve seemed a little short-staffed during busy hours, so ordering additional items can take a while. That’s the only downside, but I still love the food and atmosphere and always enjoy coming back!”

Fast Food • $
“Came by to try the promotional Mexican Pizza. The restaurant feels much more modern than I remember from when I was a kid, which was a nice surprise. Customer service was average—nothing outstanding, but nothing to complain about either. The food was exactly what I expected from Taco Bell: good, satisfying, and somewhat affordable, though not anything amazing. Overall, it was a solid visit, especially if you’re craving some classic Taco Bell favorites.”
Fast Food • $
“I never thought I would give a Jack in the Box 5 stars but here we are. My absolute favorite thing about this store is that they ALWAYS will make the tacos well-done if you ask for it. I don’t think I’ve ever had a nasty taco from here because they honor that request. I cannot say that about other Jack in the Box locations. It has been consistent for years.
Please never change 😭”

We ordered a little bit of everything—lots of bowls of pho, lomo, stir-fried beef with macaroni, and more. Every dish came out flavorful, fresh, and satisfying. There was definitely something for everyone at the table!
A special shoutout to Chivas, our waitress, who was amazing! She was so attentive and kept checking in on us to make sure we had everything we needed, especially with all the kids at our table. She made sure we had enough utensils, checked on our food, and was always friendly and helpful without being overbearing.
Great food + great service = a very happy group of 14! We’ll definitely be back! ❤”

Ramen • $
“Great food and an absolute must-visit spot in Fullerton! The Tonkotsu Ramen and Salmon Poké Bowl were exceptionally fresh, flavorful, and satisfying.
What makes it even better are the fantastic deals they offer. As a student, the 10% student discount is a huge plus, and their Ramen Hub Special lets you add boba, drinks, or rice bowls for a super affordable price when you order an entree. The staff is friendly, and the atmosphere is great for a casual meal or hang-out. Highly recommend!”

So glad we did. 2 hungry teenage boys with us we filled up on various tacos and chips and guacamole. Everything was beyond delicious and filling. I have been craving fish tacos since we hit the border. I was not disappointed! So yummy. Service was fast and friendly and price was great. Definitely make your way to Riveras Fresh Tacos. We be heading there again before we head back north of the border :)”

“I had been wanting to visit Wings Café for quite some time, and it exceeded my expectations.
The food was excellent, and the atmosphere made the experience unique. Being able to enjoy breakfast while watching the activity around the airport was something my kids and I really enjoyed. The omelets, eggs, and hash browns were delicious, and the portions were generous.
As an added bonus, there was a classic car show taking place during our visit, which made the day even more memorable.
If you’re looking for great food, friendly service, and a one-of-a-kind aviation atmosphere, I highly recommend Wings Café. We will definitely be back.”

Korean • $$
“Get yourself quickly past the strip mall vibe, and you'll find some really delicious comforting Korean food here. We had the seafood pancake which was loaded with various chopped seafood. The galbi was tender with just the right proportion of fat and full of umami. The tofu soup tasted like the one my friend's mother made for us at her home in Seoul. And the fried chicken was among the best I've had anywhere. The little dishes of banchan were tasty too. We'll definitely return for dinner here!”
Korean • $$
“We ordered the #1 combo for five people that had jokbal, bossam and spicy noodles. We loved how moist and tender the jokbal and bossam were. Seasoned perfectly. Veggies (lettuce and napa cabbage) that came with them were fresh. We thought the amount of food was generous and the banchans had good variety. The owner lady was nice and attentive. Great experience!!”

Cafe • $
“Vibes were incredible and the space was beautiful. Both indoors and outdoors seating areas felt whimsical and were thoughtfully decorated. I ordered the tiramisu mocha latte and it was so yummy that I already want another one. There was plenty of seating indoors and outdoors (both in the back and front). A lot of the outdoor seating is shaded. They have high chairs and the back patio is stroller friendly (with a ramp) but I couldn’t find one in the front courtyard. There is a parking area in the back accessible from the street behind the cafe but it looked limited.”
Sandwich Shop • $

I will absolutely be back, thanks for the wonderful morning!!”

I look forward to coming back and trying other dishes.”

For our matin entrees, we got the Crispy Pork Belly Kaprao, Filet Mignon Cashew Nuts, and the Crispy Pork Chili & Sea Salt. This was also the order we enjoyed in. I recommend that if you get the Crispy Pork Chili & Sea Salt, ask for less salt. I like my food salty and savory, but the sea salt seemed to be too heavy this time around.”

Japanese • $$
“Had a late night craving for some Japanese curry and takoyaki but not a ton of late night options for that. This place fit the bill perfectly. Note that this place shares a location with a Korean fried chicken /tteokbokki spot, so you can order those options too if you really want. Curry came out hot and fast, decent sized cutlet, a healthy serving of rice, and just the right amount of curry to go with it. I'll be back for sure.”

Ramen • $$
“I've ordered food to-go and dined in at this location. I ordered sushi and ramen to-go and it was good. The ramen was surprisingly hot for a long while. The tempura was great and everything was packaged well and kept warm/hot even after I got home and began eating it.
We had dinner here after going to the axe throwing place close by and were seated right away. They're open late and we ordered multiple sushi rolls for the table and were delightfully full. I enjoyed the Jessica Alba roll and would get it again in the future. Parking is doable but it gets pretty packed at night and on the weekends so it may take a few extra minutes but I'm always able to find parking in less than 10 minutes. Would recommend for a solid Japanese dinner in a casual setting with friends or family.”
Gastropubs • $$
“You can’t go wrong with this place.
I only go in the morning/afternoon for lunch and the food is always great and the portions are always generous. The staff even better. The menu is not ridiculously vast but can certainly cater to anyone’s appetite. The decor is like an upscale unassuming sports bar and the patio dining space offers a view of the most charming streets in Downtown Fullerton.
If you’re there around noon on a weekday- you will probably see the most adorable little white dog with sleepy stoner eyes and a tail in shape of a question mark. The dog walks around with a certain heartbreaking cute nonchalance.”
Brunch • $$
“Went here while visiting with friends and got the salmon floretine and an iced caramel latte. The salmon floretine is probably one of the best breakfasts I have ever had! The staff was very friendly and the place seemed very clean as well! Would definitely come back again”

Irish Pub • $$
“I eat here a couple times a week as it’s just down the street from my office. Although we have several great options in Downtown Fullerton, Mickey’s is, hands down, my go to. Their food is always on point. Their service is second to none and their prices are great as well. I’ve had it all. Their Burger, their steak, ribs, fish & chips, it’s all wonderful. Irish Eggrolls and Deviled Eggs are crazy good! 🤯And of course, they have all the spirits one would need to enjoy. If you haven’t been to Mickey’s, I’d say you’re missing out. Which is fine, more for me. 🤣”

“I had gotten the chicken ginseng soup and although the wait was a bit long, it was definitely worth the wait. They packaged up the food so well and gave side dishes such as rice, kimchi, spicy fish cake and etc.The soup was a life changing experience, it was like soothing to my core and left me feeling fulfilled. My emotions were calm after eating the soup. In the soup. There was a whole small chicken and stuffed with dates, and rice. The rice inside the chicken became almost creamy like congee and was the star of the show, to me. The chicken was tender and light on my stomach and the side dishes paired well with the entire meal. I look forward to coming back to this restaurant and trying more dishes.”

“Food was Good and the service was fast!
We went on a weekday and got seated right away, but it could get really busy. The side dishes are refillable, but for us it was plenty and we didn't need to refill. The servers were rushed and made sure to let us know we can't put any of the left over side dishes in our Togo boxes, which we thought was weird and unnecessary.”

“I don’t understand why this place has such a low rating! My husband and I love it here. The food is always so fresh, especially the guacamole. Servers are extremely chill and kind. Also it’s very affordable. Sometimes I stop in just for some tacos and drinks by myself at the bar. Good vibes at Hidalgo’s always.”

“This place is iconic. You’ll be hard pressed to find another atmosphere that holds up close to this restaurant. It’s filled with character and delectable cuisine. From a simple sit down dinner to booking a banquet for a special occasion this place does it all. There’s just something about pulling up to this restaurant and walking through those doors that make you feel transported to a magical Italian destination. It’s one of my ultimate favorite places to visit.”

““Wow” Monday I went to restaurant and pre-ordered 20 meals for my guests who were going to be celebrated by daughters 2 year birthday. Mayra was great, friendly & professional but there was a misunderstanding on the date. Which of course I feel terrible about! But they accommodated my order for the correct date! Everyone enjoyed the food. Especially the bass fish with vegetables and rice plate! Fancy for 12.00. Large portions too!”

“I'm going to be 100% honest. The service is fantastic. The chicken is good but without their special sauce it would taste like the other chicken places. Their Texas toast is only toasted on one side which makes the bite mushy. For me their coleslaw needs to be blended more. The fries are so so. This is just my own opinion.”

I'm from Ohio, and the closest we have is Five Guys, and this blows them out of the water! My wife is the local, so I followed her lead and had burgers and fries animal style! Everything was DELICIOUS! Thanks to everyone at the location! Everyone was very genuinely cheerful and nice! (went through at 11:00am, Sep 4th 2023)”

“Absolutely loved this place! From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere felt elegant and thoughtfully designed. Even the plates and presentation were beautiful — every little detail felt so refined and high-end.
The sushi and sashimi were incredibly fresh, beautifully prepared, and the quality was outstanding. You can really tell they pay attention to every detail, from the ingredients to the presentation and overall dining experience.
Definitely one of those places that feels special from start to finish. I was genuinely impressed and would absolutely come back. Highly recommend!”

“We love the calm atmosphere with cute details. Friendly staff. The Matcha Bliss is delicious but the yummy tastes hides the strength of the coffee! 🫢 The Coco Matcha Cloud is very refreshing and they use our favorite pink coconut water! Located near Fullerton College so good place for students to come by.”

“We ordered the #1 combo for five people that had jokbal, bossam and spicy noodles. We loved how moist and tender the jokbal and bossam were. Seasoned perfectly. Veggies (lettuce and napa cabbage) that came with them were fresh. We thought the amount of food was generous and the banchans had good variety. The owner lady was nice and attentive. Great experience!!”

“We got the Manon Signature Tower (great sampler plate) and the Thai Tea Flight (great sampler plate) to start.
For our matin entrees, we got the Crispy Pork Belly Kaprao, Filet Mignon Cashew Nuts, and the Crispy Pork Chili & Sea Salt. This was also the order we enjoyed in. I recommend that if you get the Crispy Pork Chili & Sea Salt, ask for less salt. I like my food salty and savory, but the sea salt seemed to be too heavy this time around.”

“Amazing tasting food and awesome personalized service. Hidden gem for an authentic Indian tasting food place. The Chholey curry with garlic Nan was just out of the world. The gracious hostess recommended Misal Pav which was absolutely delicious. So was the Mango Lassi. the Kesar Pista cheesecake and the Masala Lemonade (courteously customized to our taste). They have some really interesting fusion choices tooFor genuine Indian tasting food lovers, not to be missed place.”

“One of my favorite spots for lunch in Downtown Fullerton. Spotlessly clean mom and pop spot, with friendly, helpful staff.
No frills. Just good food at a good price, served fast. Perfect spot for local employees to grab lunch and get back to the office in a half-hour.
If you haven't tried the Ubu, or you're weirded out by it, it's time to dive in and give it a try. Soft tofu skin, nice cool rice, and a heaping pile of your favorite filling. Honestly, they give you enough filling for two Ubus, easily. And it's delicious.
If you just want to pop in for a bowl of instant Ramyun, you cook it yourself on an EZ Cook, which is kinda fun. Plus, instant Ramen with an Ubu on the side for $10 is an unbeatable deal, right now.”

“We were 1st timers. I ordered the green enchilada plate. My husband ordered carne asada fries, and my sister ordered the carne asada torta which we did not get a picture of. My plate was delish. There was a good amount of chicken in my enchiladas. The beans and rice were yummy. The carne asada fries were equally as good. My sister said the torta tasted good but there was hardly any meat and beans or topping on her torta. We'd definitely go back. I'd gave it 4 starts because of the torta otherwise I would have given it 5 stars.”
“My second time visiting this great establishment. Once again, the pizza and all that they serve is ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS!!! I had some caprese , burata, Fior Di Latte and the Vespa Pizza along with a Limonata Rosa. Our Service Yadira was amazing and very attentive. She was very helpful with any questions we had. Thank you Yadira and all the staff at Fuoco. Definitely my favorite Pizza!!! See you soon!”
