Restaurants in Lake Forest

“Great restaurant with a small, family feel. The food is amazing, and honestly at a steal of a price; the food is half as expensive and more than twice as delicious as other restaurants I've been to. I had the quatrro formaggio because I noticed gorgonzola on the ingredients list, and I loved every single bite! It was so nice to have a dish that put the gorgonzola flavor front-and-center, and the cream sauce was somehow light while still being packed full of flavor.
My wife had the lasagna, and it's easy to see why it's a favorite here. It cem out with the sauce still bubbling, and once she could dig in she described it as lightly sweet, a welcome change from some overly-acidic dishes at some other places.
The service was also impeccable, the staff was very friendly and welcoming and we felt very well attended-to. We came in about an hour or so before closing so there weren't many other customers, and we got our food impressively quickly.
Another note, if you are staying at any of the nearby hotels (specifically the row of hotels on Lake Center Drive) then this restaurant is extremely close, easily walkable if you want. It would make a convenient, delicious, and good-valued addition to your vacation.”

“Nice place, the real Brazilian açaí ☀️”

“The best vegan pho I’ve ever had.”

“So healthy and tastes like a treat!”

“The staff here is excellent!!!! These guys are always running around doing their best to serve people. I FORGOT you okay it the front so bring cash for a tip. I felt I didnt5 leave as much as I sgould have, I'm sorry. Really awesome and welcoming. Haven't been here since I was a kid. Totally fun for the nostaliga love. The salad bar was awesome, glad to see it open again. Good prices for everything as well. Life you get tons of healthy options here! They still have the cheese toast! That was my treat with the salad. The food is good and simple. Perfect spot for picky eaters, I saw plenty of kids getting food and actually eating it.”

“Great place to eat best pizza 🍕”

“This joint is serving up real ingredients prepared like that Peruvian uncle I never had. I was impressed by the actual hand cut yucca vs some other joints precut yucca. That green sauce is obviously made in house and done right. The ceviche isn’t the prettiest I’ve eaten, but ranks high in the yum factor. Definitely a restaurant worth another visit.”

“Got pastrami dip sandwich, small bowl of chili, tuna melt sandwich and large fries.

Their pastrami is sliced super thin and not salty like other places. I could only eat half. Nice size.

Last time we ordered the pastrami chili cheese fries. That order was massive and fed at least 4 people.

This time we got bowl of chili on the side. Chili was bland, needed salt. We used it to dip with the fries to make our own version of chili cheese fries.

Overall, decent quality quick meal and large portion.”

“Theo was an amazing server. He walked me through the process, gave me recommendations and made my experience more than only about the food. I got a connection with this staff member and felt like my meal was carefully curated to my tastes. Awesome meal.”

“There was 7 of us in town for a conference and we stumbled upon Hole in the Wall Burger! Burger was delicious the service outstanding and special sauce of the chart’s. Next time I’m in the area I’ll definitely be stopping by and have a burger!”

“Absolutely wonderful food and service. Never fails!”

“Great food, natural ingredients, homemade sauces.
I had the carne asada tacos, my go-to for taco shops. These were not your regular street tacos. They are full of meat and made with care, balanced with added ingredients to create a tasteful taco.
I called my order ahead, so I could do a quick pickup on the run. The owner was very friendly and offered the entire array of sauce selections. The freshly, homemade house sauce is the best. A little spicy but really flavorful.
Parking was not a problem bbut appeared to be limited. The shops along the mini mall have a quick turnover, so it appears to work. Seems to be ample spots to park.
The cost is very affordable and priced for return business. I think I'll try one of the burritos next visit.
Well done Mr. G!”

“I love how this location hardly ever runs out of their flavors and special cookies of the week. If you ever run into that problem at different locations, I guarantee you’ll find it at this one. These cookies are delicious and they taste amazing! My favorite is a pink sugar cookie”

“Food was really great, flavorful, decently priced, accommodations were decently comfortable and clean, and the owner was attentive and really cares about his customers. There’s a lot of Mediterranean food that is good here in Lake Forest, but for a medium fast speed spot, this is one I would visit again.”

“Great donuts and excellent service”

“This is The Red Bird Hot Chicken & Fries in Lake Forest, and if you need a quick bite that doesn’t destroy your wallet, this one starts at just $10.

The Chicken Rice Bowl comes loaded with juicy hot chicken, rice, lettuce, tomato, and both their Famous White and Big Bird sauces.

But if you’re a hot chicken traditionalist, get the sandwich.

Crispy, juicy chicken with slaw, pickles, Big Bird Sauce, plus fries on the side.

And apparently one form of chicken wasn’t enough for me, so we also tried the Chicken Caesar Wrap. 😂”

“Best ice cream in town! I especially love the coconut cream pie. My family loves the Monkey Business too. Customer service is top notch. Isaac, my server was friendly and helpful. Will be back!”

“I love coming to this location. My go to meal is the chicken and koobideh plate. Every time I order it it taste so good and fresh. Their service is great, they have a good attitude and the food is always ready pretty fast.”

“I had an outstanding experience at DonerG, where they beautifully blend the authentic flavors of Turkish cuisine with vibrant Mediterranean and Middle Eastern influences. I opted for the Original Fladenbrot sandwich with beef, and added chicken as well. Both meats were incredibly well-seasoned, tender, and bursting with flavor. You can truly appreciate the freshness and quality of the ingredients in every bite. The ambiance of the restaurant was welcoming and warm, making it an ideal spot whether you're grabbing a quick bite or enjoying a meal with a larger group. Special mention to Eduardo and Saadi, who were attentive and provided excellent service, making the entire experience even more enjoyable. I’ll definitely be returning for another delicious meal!”

“We’ve been coming to Thai Garden regularly and always have a great experience. The food is consistently delicious, and the staff is incredibly friendly and attentive. We especially appreciate how thoughtful they are with our daughter — it’s those little touches that keep us coming back. Definitely one of our favorite spots!”

“Haven't been here in awhile and my nephew wanted this for dinner and we stopped by. He love the galbi which you can order as a plate/bowl for extra or as a side. We ended up ordering a double side which is very reasonably priced and decent amount of food.

I also got the plate with galbi and 4 sides which I also enjoyed. Overall a decent amount of food for the price and the quality is good.”

“I’m a regular customer here. I love the variety of healthy items and all of the customization possible. Friendly professional Staff!!! I’m a ‘lifer’”

“I am so pleased with the cookies and mini cupcakes for our family baby shower today. The Winnie the Pooh themed treats were not only beautiful, but delicious as well.”

“It's one of me and my fiancé Denise's favorite place. We go there all the time and it's always awesome. I highly recommend it to anyone that lives in the area. We absolutely love it and they take care of you like family.”

“Biagio’s is officially our new go-to pizza place! Everything about our experience was amazing — the food, the service, and the atmosphere.

It’s family-owned and operated, and you can genuinely feel that personal touch from the moment you walk in. Everyone was so friendly and welcoming, and the food was absolutely delicious.

What really made our visit special was how sweet they were with our son. They actually took him into the back to show him the kitchen and how everything works, and it completely made his day! It was such a thoughtful gesture and the kind of experience you just don’t get at a big chain.

Great food, great people, and a wonderful family atmosphere. We’re so happy we found Biagio’s and it is officially our new go-to pizza spot. We’ll definitely be back!”

“Don't miss this wonderful place. Once you try BrioBrio's delicious food, you'll regret you hadn"t discovered It before. Thanks Naoko and Ruichi for feeding our body and soul!!!”

“Great food for breakfast and lunch too!! Fresh bagels sandwiches and salads... they are all great! �”

“Jerk chicken ELL eggs Tantan udon Kaisendon Everything”

“Checked them out yesterday and was very impressed! Food was fantastic, service was great and they have lots of options including some Korean Fusion”

“Our Women's Group meets there monthly and we always have fabulous service and the food is delicious!! They bring out the entire staff to sing, dance & play instruments for Birthday's and gift framed photos. Fun, family atmosphere!!!!”

“We were visiting from Scotland, having previously lived in NYC for many years, and were desperate for a nice Italian meal like we used to get when we lived in the States. We could not have been more impressed with the food and the service, and made sure we got a second visit in before we returned to Scotland - I just wish we could have gone back a third time… and fourth !!!! Highly recommend !!!”

“delicious good place to eat”

“Plan being to go today and read the recent 3 reviews but have been in their buffet multiple times. My daughter love their shahi paneer and palak paneer with Bhindi and I like their butter chicken to go. That is all happened very frequently up until last 2 weeks. I will share another note after I am done today with my and 2 of my friends and family!!”

“Great people, environment drinks etc, highly recommend”

“Food is absolutely genius! Not only the ham, but the turkey was great too. They say leave at room temp, but it's like deli slices, I ate right from the fridge and was amazing still”

“The pizza and spaghetti and meatballs was AMAZING! So delicious! 😊😋🥰🍕🇮🇹”

“Great food and was a family favorite, and now visit to bring back teenage memories. Counter service, nothing fancy, and is owner operated. Like going to my Grandparents to eat. Just good home cooking.”

“This Target is a total gem! I love how clean and organized the store is, plus the staff is always super friendly and helpful. They have a great selection of items, and I often find amazing deals on everything from clothes to home goods.”

“Expansive menu with many unusual very Mexican options. Large portions, tasty food. Definitely worth a visit.
Huge personal & huger family quesadillas.”

“Great atmosphere, great food. There were three birthdays while I was there, lol. They made guacamole for us fresh in front of our table - it was very good 😊.”

“I only went once but I enjoyed it sadly other people I went with did not. I liked their options of seafood lots of fish and shrimp. The popcorn shrimp was great. I loved the all you can eat sushi section that was my favorite. The sushi was really good fresh, could see the chefs cutting it. They had lots of deserts and tons of options & variety. I paid $22.99 per adult and $20.69 for the senior in my party. The total was under $70 for 3 because I went at lunch hours during M-S 11 am -4pm”

“Excellent food amazing service”

“A fantastic first children's cooking session for the holidays Everything was very thought out, plenty of ingredients and delicious results! The chef was friendly and gave clear instructions and encouragement to the children. The children had the chance to learn the process and also be exposed to different ingredients. Bring on adult sessions too I say! It worked really well at 3pm, clearly a lull in diners so it was really quiet and I think the customers in actually enjoyed listening and watching- it didn't seem to disturb them. To help only feed back I would give is a need for some napkins on the table and to encourage participants to wash their hands before as I didn't feel we had time to go and do that before instructions began. Host was really friendly and welcoming.”

“I've eaten at a few Amecis over the decades, but the pizza I picked up from this location, was far and away the best one I've ever had from them. As a matter of fact, we were looking for a new pizza place and the family all loved the pizzas I picked up, so I think we've found our new pizza place!”

“Stupendous on all counts :) Added assistance unsolicited but provided. That's what's up.Looking forward to Del Diablo sauce... Trinidad Scorpion laced? ??????????? ”

“We come here 3 out of 7 times a week and lately food has been warm but besides that can't complain service customer service is really well helped and I love their cold coffee better than McDonald's or Jack's coffee”

“Mari and crew always consistent never miss, I drive by 3 jack n the box from my house to come to the lake forest jack n the box, On el toro.always nice and friendly love this jack. Keep up the hard work thank you guys for your great customer service”

“The associate was friendly and very good at explaining everything. Regardless of your cookie selection, you cannot make a poor choice, as each flavor is exceptionally delicious and generously sized. We all shared each cookie so that we could sample every flavor.”

“I’m Korean, every thing was good!
The only disappointment was the Galbi (short ribs) looked like it was cooked in a pan not a grill, big difference.”

“This is a great little bar in a strip mall with a more mature clientele, smoking patio, lots of TV's and a great grill. If you're into good food and drinks at a great price and good company without the kids, this is the spot. They have karaoke and frequent bands, generally classic rock vibe.”

“I forgot to take a picture but I enjoyed my crepe because it wasn’t super sweet.
My coworkers also enjoyed their burrito orders so we would come back again for either a dine in or take out.”

“Always enjoy eating here, been a customer for 18+ years. For us it is worth the hour drive.”

“It was a great spot for a quiet chat with friends. I wasn't sure if the person serving us was an employee or the owner, but they were incredibly friendly—and the food was delicious, too! It’s the kind of place I’d almost rather keep all to myself.”

“was recommended by a friend. Work for SCE, thought I'd buy the guys who I work with pizza today. So an extra large pepperoni and sausage. All the guys who had it raved about it, lots of good sausage and pepperoni's on it. good tasting crust, lots of cheese and best of all is the sauce which was excellent. All my friends got to check it out.”

“The best sushi in OC in my opinion! The sushi burrito is to die for! I drive down to Lake Forest from Newport Beach because nothing up here compares to Little Fairy!”

“Only place in San Diego county I feel like you can get a proper breakfast burrito. Ten out of ten.”

“New Fav coffee house! Awesome selection of fresh made grub, classic coffees, vibe and hospitality on point, nice change from 🌟bucks - give these guys a try!”

“I ordered to go wonton soup, was really weak but the worst was the fresh rolls, most lettuce inside, the put them together and it was a sticky mess. I didn't enjoy it.”

“fresh coffee and ham&cheese. and delicious egg omelet. highly recommend”

“Hidden gem for Thai food. The quiet and nondescript building doesn't bear witness to the quality of food served.
Very genuine food and polite servers who aim to please.
We shared the Pad See-Ew with Pork and Yellow Curry with Chicken and rice. We also ordered the rare Mango Sticky Rice.
This is highly recommended but save room for dessert. The meals are hearty and the mango and sticky rice are plentious.
Service is excellent and helpful.
The atmosphere is very authentic with the ongoing elephant theme throughout.”

“Today was my first time here but the Volcano Seafood I ordered is absolutely amazing”

“I sure do love how you can create your own pizza without costing so much for every topping that is needed in every pizza place I’ve gone through like everyone else Pizza Hut, Domino, Little Caesar, that’s getting to be ridiculous. Just created and enjoy it.”

“I can’t believe I have never tried this place before, especially living walking distance from it… crazy lol.

Awesome place! Awesome drinks, awesome flavor.

We were on our walk yesterday, Wednesday around 2 pm. No vehicles on the drive thru yet, so we just walked up to the window.

I got the Caramel Granita with oat-milk, it is like medium sweet drink, nice and refreshing.

The girl at the window was so patient, great suggestions, excellent customer service.

Will have to come by more often!”

“como El nombre lo dice delicias all day long”

“A must visit for the best sushi! We've been coming here for 11 years when they were on Los Alisos. A great family owned spot. Wonderful service, amazing food. Our favorites are #13 Energy Roll, #26 Albacore Roll.”

“I love this place! Food is always great and you pick what you want!!”

“Steak quesadilla was extremely chewy and greasy so I sent it back and still got charged for it. Took 30 minutes to receive check and 15 minutes to get credit card back when it was not even that busy”

“Went yesterday and met the owner, what a nice guy! We loved the chili dog and the ice cream. Thank you for making us feel welcome and appreciated. Thank you for the ice cream, and the great chili dogs. We wish you many years of success and community involvement.”

“Clean and open. The coffee and smoothies are spot on. Everyone working there seems to be a bit of a “coffee nerd”. They really know their coffee! I would recommend it to anyone that prefers a higher quality coffee.”

“My wife and I just had dinner here and it was amazing! We had the all you can eat and we left very satisfied. The fish was fresh, sushi was delicious and the staff were very friendly. Will definitely be back!”

“First time to come here and the place is very clean and organize. I met Evelyn and she is so nice to welcome new customer. I like the food ( first try BBQ and dinuguan), it’s delicious and their Halo-halo my favorite is super tasty, love it. Looking forward to taste all the food and delicacies they serve.”

“Today was our first time ordering take out.
Absolutely impressed ! This has to be one of the top pizzas and wings we have had!
We ordered a classic cheese pizza , a half and half - combo & chicken tika, the pick your 4 flavor wings- hot, bbq, tandoori.

We were blown away !
The tandoori wings are sooo delicious.
Everything was delicious truly.
We will be ordering again”

“The cake had a simple appearance, and she could only write “Happy Birthday” in brown, which I found odd. I was initially a bit concerned—it was a thin, two-layer 8” cake for $50. However, the taste more than made up for it! It wasn’t overly sweet, and the strawberry filling with whipped cream frosting was absolutely delicious. I would absolutely order another cake from Bye Bye Sugar!!!👍🏾”

“Best Pad See Ew I've ever had. I'm also a fan of the Papaya Salad as a refreshing side. One thing I adore about Thai Corner is that they are not shy with their basil. Easy recommend.”

“Good place to grab their famous chili style menu. Great tasting food that can be messy to to eat but thats OK. Good flavor. Service is a tab slow so anticipate a small wait. Fries are average until you get chili cheese on them, then their sensational. Good place to try if you desire a different style of burger”

“Nothing is better than fresh croissant! Great family owned place. Very friendly prices. Signature Butter Croissants baked daily. The taste is balances, very mild sweet as I like, texture is between the super fluffy croissant and the bun, I really liked it. The chocolate croissant was a totally different story, check the picture. The taste was like it was baked sometime this week :) and the texture was like it is a bun with chocolate. So do not expect the same excitement from their chocolate croissant as from their signature plain croissants, which are super awesome and could be used for French toast and sandwiches as well and any filling. Next time I will take fresh plain croissant and fill it with chocolates home :) Next time we will try their breakfast / lunch menu. It looks awesome and the customers I met were happy. Update: amazing place with unique home character, loving breakfast here”

“The food was great. Real Peruvian food.”

“What wonderful owners. Hard working and personable. Food was very good and atmosphere friendly. Could use a bit of work, but with everything else, not really noticeable. I’ll go back.”

“Forgot how flavorful the food is here. It has been a little while since visiting Wahoo's since my go-to is not a fish taco.
I had the Bonzai Burrito with Asada Beef. It comes with marinated veggies, which adds a unique flavor to the entire burrito.
The salads are also good and quite large.
There wasn't a long line and our order was taken quickly, we did wait a while for the food service but it arrived hot and as ordered.
The atmosphere is lifted with decorations that are unique and festive.
Prices are very affordable and coupons or online discounts are often available. Parking lot is small but there seems to be space near by.”

“One of the most authentic and yummy XLB places. The waitlist can be a bit long during peak hours, but their system takes care of it. Services are fine too, just sometimes a bit monotone as they are very focused on their tasks. Simple and clean environment while we can also buy togo frozen XLB to steam at home. All their greens and veggies dishes are wonderful!”

“Really good chicken aside of that the cashier Andrea is so welcoming and very friendly. Really recommend their chicken especially the 2pc Lunch Special. Overall 10/10 experience here will for sure be back!!”

“Simply Pho is very good! Their Pho broth was flavorful, . We had both the beef broth and the chicken broths. The Vietnamese spring rolls have vermicelli and lettuce wrapped in rice paper, served with homemade sauce—so fresh and addictive. We had the chicken wraps. They also served us a free desert which was like a tapioca style pudding but really sweet!”

“Everything that I’ve try is 100% 😋”

“Really good Boba! Got the Cookie Butter Freeze and it was amazing! Our new favorite around town.

Definitely recommend and will be back again! Overall 5 ⭐”

“Great sandwiches! Lots of choices and plenty of meat. Fun atmosphere with beach vibe. Large outdoor seating at this location. Excellent value with huge sandwiches and salads.”

“I’ve been coming to Taqueria for years and it never disappoints! This is real Mexican food, authentic, fresh, and always served at super fair prices. One of those spots that keeps you coming back again and again. Highly recommended!!”

“Simply the best yogurt I’ve ever tasted and would always enjoy trying all the flavors! Burp!! (Excuse me! 😋🤭”

“First visit to this store. Fantastic selection of British foods at a reasonable price Very clean and organized. Friendly staff. Will definitely return in the future.”

“My hangout, healthy choices and some items under $5 while earning points ���”

“Maybe it's just me, but the screen ordering was confusing. The picture showed rice included, but it wasn't. Other than that, the food was really good and the people were helpful.”

“Love this place there food is so clean and tasty. Best chicken spot I have been to. I have been to almost all of them from Dave’s to hotties to Breds. But this one by far is the tastiest and most juicy. If you like your chicken juicy and crispy this is the place to try. Try them out asap if you havnt yet.”

“Wow!! The amount of care and service they provide even during a rush is astounding! The cooks were working together to get meals out timely and the front counter crew were restocking, taking orders, and neatly plating the food. My partner and I watched in awe. Despite a few people being a bit impatient (I mean you can look at their packed screens) they handled it phenomenally. Food was amazing, perfect amount of toppings on the tacos, tortillas were at a great temp, really good guacamole with our chips, and at a really great price! Hope to try out some more items from the menu! Cheers to the crew here at Lupe’s Mexican Eatery in Lake Forest! You are the best!!”

“The staff here is excellent!!!! These guys are always running around doing their best to serve people. I FORGOT you okay it the front so bring cash for a tip.

“Had the chicken soup. It was very good. Wanted additional kick and tried two sauces, placed on the table. The darker one appeared not as hot, as the lighter looking sauce. Believe it complements the soup nicely. Helena”

“The food is so delicious and flavorful. The place is beautiful, the portion and quality is worth your budget. Me and my husband was satisfied for what we order. Excellent job Pho Tam Cali. We will definitely come back.”

“Awesome place, great bar-b-Que”

“Got pastrami dip sandwich, small bowl of chili, tuna melt sandwich and large fries.

“Nice place, the real Brazilian açaí ☀️”

“very clean establishment. very friendly staff and management. my breakfast was cooked just as I like it. Coffee was good. I was here 11 years ago and the cleanliness, service and the food is just as good today as it was 11 years ago. I will be back!!”

“First visit to this store. Fantastic selection of British foods at a reasonable price Very clean and organized. Friendly staff. Will definitely return in the future.”

“The best vegan pho I’ve ever had.”

“So healthy and tastes like a treat!”

“Best Habit in the area. The manage Rosie is pretty great. The food is amazing and pretty quick when they’re super busy. Other habits remind me of in and out where your sitting there for 20-30min to get your food, not this one. The Santa Barbara Char is bomb, and anyone who likes soy sauce based sauces would love the Korean chicken bites”

“Simply Pho is very good! Their Pho broth was flavorful, . We had both the beef broth and the chicken broths. The Vietnamese spring rolls have vermicelli and lettuce wrapped in rice paper, served with homemade sauce—so fresh and addictive. We had the chicken wraps.

“The Chick-Fil-A in Foothill Ranch is excellent! The chicken nuggets, waffle fries, Mac and cheese, and fruit cups are always freshly prepared and absolutely delicious! My two toddler sons and I go to this location approximately twice a week, and every visit I am always impressed by how good the service is and how incredibly CLEAN everything is. My sons absolutely love coming here, because the food is so yummy and they love playing in the indoor playground. Additionally, the owner of the Chick-Fil-A is amazing! She is very kind, helpful, and generous with customers. She takes the time to talk with my toddler sons every visit and it is evident that she truly cares about providing guests with a great experience! This is literally the BEST Chick-Fil-A location, and I highly recommend checking it out!”

“There was 7 of us in town for a conference and we stumbled upon Hole in the Wall Burger! Burger was delicious the service outstanding and special sauce of the chart’s. Next time I’m in the area I’ll definitely be stopping by and have a burger!”

“I recently visited McDonald's and had a pleasant experience. The restaurant had a familiar and welcoming atmosphere that made it a convenient place to enjoy a quick meal. The staff were friendly, polite, and provided efficient service during my visit. The ordering process was simple, and my food was prepared quickly. The menu offered a wide variety of classic favorites, drinks, and snacks to choose from. The food was fresh, hot, and tasted consistent with what I expected from McDonald's. I especially enjoyed the convenience and reliability of the menu options. The restaurant was clean, organized, and comfortable for customers. The employees worked efficiently to keep everything running smoothly. I appreciated the quick service while still receiving friendly customer care. The prices were reasonable, and there were many affordable options available. The atmosphere was casual and suitable for families, friends, or a quick stop during a busy day. I liked the convenience of being able to enjoy a familiar meal in a comfortable setting. The staff made sure my order was accurate and handled everything professionally. It is clear that the team puts effort into providing a good experience for customers. I would definitely return to McDonald's when looking for a fast and convenient meal. I have already recommended it to others who enjoy classic fast-food options. Overall, McDonald's offers reliable food, friendly service, and a convenient dining experience. I look forward to visiting again soon.”

“Extremely nice staff very fast! 😊”

“I was here on a rainy day last week and can say how this lab curated the most nourishing pho broth I’ve ever tasted! Ever in the Huntington Beach area? Give it a try! Lifted my mood and gave my body back some life. The banh mi was also great - fresh crunchy bread with a soft inside filled with freshly cooked yummies! Enjoy 👩🏻‍🍳”

“This is a solid choice. The pourover was precision. The beans were spot on. We tried the Colombian and the Ethiopian, pretty much perfect. A bit pricey, but what isn’t these days.”

“New Mediterranean restaurant in lake forest! The muhammara ( roasted nut, red pepper dip cold dish ) is pretty yummy. The Kebab Combination Platter is a good choice to share. We also tried some new appetizers such as the cheese borak, meat sambousek, kibbeh, pretty filling. The dessert baklava is loaded with pistachio”

“Open late, everything is fresh and the food is delicious. The owner is the nicest man ive ever met! If I could give 10 stars alone just for his kindness I would. We will definitely be back.”

“Randomly stopped in for a quick meal but was amazed by the experience. The soup dumplings, wonton soup, beef roll, and cucumber salad were all amazing. Will be bringing friends and family here in the future.”

“Delicious food all of it! This type of food is one of my absolute favorites lately and this place knocked it out of the park. The Soup dumplings, the shrimp and pork dumplings, the braised beef noodle soup.. Say less! Come check this place out they won't let you down!”

“Such a great find! I tried the Yemeni latte and it was fantastic — beautiful aroma from the cardamom and cinnamon, generous size, and not overly sweet like some spiced lattes can be. I also got the honeycomb bread with cheese filling and a honey drizzle, and it was the perfect balance of sweet and savory, with a really generous portion too.

What stood out most was how authentic the whole experience felt — you can tell they're staying true to Yemeni flavors and traditions rather than watering things down. Will absolutely be back to try more of the menu!”

“First time in lake forest and i got the strawberry smoothie

And it was bomb
Worth the 9000 miles travelling distance
(Atw from singapore)”

“Thai All Day was absolutely amazing! I had the Penang Curry Chicken, and it was honestly some of the best Thai food I’ve ever had. The lemon soup starter was incredible too!

The service was wonderful, the food came out surprisingly quickly, and everything tasted fresh, flavorful, and delicious. The atmosphere was also great and made the whole experience even better.

I would absolutely recommend Thai All Day and can’t wait to come back! 🌸🍜”

“Must praise the service first. The lady in the front is super nice, answering all my questions with patience. Food looks fresh and tasty. Bought some chicken feet, quail et, and mixed veggies, averaging about $15/lb.

They also sell hotpot stuffs and provide sit-down meals.”

“Honestly one of the best tacos I've had in the OC so far. Ordered food from here several times, and I have never been disappointed. I appreciate their ample variety of meats to choose from, along with having a self serve toppings bar. This place always has professional customer service, and is very fast in fulfilling their orders. Genuinely wish they'd open a location in Irvine, we need some good taco trucks over there.”

“Absolutely love their karak chai! This is our go to when we need a true pick me up - it beats coffee, without the jitters.

As coffee and matcha lovers we appreciate the variety.
The new location is cute and welcoming.”

“Always great service here. Wait times are not the best, but maybe that's because I always come in at peak hours and it actually takes time to cook so much delicious meats. Who would have thought. I will continue to keep coming back and Dystinee is always very kind and helpful.”

“When:
- Monday dinner

What:
- Braised Beef Noodle Soup
- Yunnan Rice Noodle Soup with all the fixings

Experience:
- Braised Beef Noodle Soup had flavorful and tender beef that was delicious! Had the almost melt in your mouth experience. Be aware that even for a mild, it was spicy. So if you don’t like any spicy at all, this is not a dish to get.
- Yunnan rice noodle bridge was nice to see how it is all setup before you put everything into the bowl of soup. It is very hot so be cautious especially if you have little ones. The soup, noodles and fixings were good. My little one liked the soup and noodles so much that he had almost a whole bowl by himself (he’s only 3.5 yo).
- Free dessert in the stainless steel container by where the eating utensils are. Option was limited with just aiyu jelly and oranges.
- Service was friendly and food was served in a reasonable time.”

“Food is sooooo good. They crisp up the tortilla nicely before serving so the protein holds up well. This is an amazing spot!

PS: Shoutout to the owner Edgar, we thought we lost our phone here and he went above and beyond to help us find it. This place cares about their customers!!

We can't wait to bring friends whenever they come visit us. 5/5 tacos and salsas !”
