Green Street Café

★★★★☆ 4.1 (803) • $$

"Great food so far... I have only had the country fried steak. REAL country fried steak (not that premade frozen crap) with fried chicken style breading, nice and thick. I don't know how they manage to keep the crispy breading from falling off when they plate it. Gravy is also the real deal; just sausage, flour, salt and pepper. If someone complains in their review that it tastes too plain or doesn't taste like gravy, ignore them... they're from California and are expecting it to also include chicken broth and maybe pieces of bacon too. Eggs, hash browns, and biscuit were also goodThe house potatoes looked awesome. I need to try those next time. Prices were decent Eggs Benedict had several options and looked good too."

SEN Vietnamese Cuisine

★★★★☆ 4.4 (641) • $$

"Let's get to it. Yum and yum. I stopped by for lunch and tried their phở Bắc đặc biệt & bánh mi que pate. Bánh mi que - try it with or without the lemon grass chili sate on the table! One of my 2 top bánh mi que in the area. The other spot that wins my tastebuds is Trung Nguyên E-Legend's. You've got better ones in mind? Please do share--I'm dying to hear about them! Pho - fresh wide noodles with the perfect softness! Broth well-balanced not as fatty and meat very tender. 10/10 would visit again and again!"

Jong Ro Shul Lung Tang

★★★★☆ 4.1 (476) • $$

"It has been a while since I've been back to Jong Ro Shul Lung Tang. We stopped coming since prices were creeping up. However, since prices have skyrocketed everywhere, we decided to give it a try. The service is the same - friendly and helpful. They serve delicious ban chans (side dishes) with your food order. My hubby and I shared #14. Chicken Soup ($22.99). It was more than enough food between the two of us. This is a great soup to get if you want something that is clean and comforting. The ginseng is mild and the chicken is not dry. Prices are comparable to other Korean restaurants in the area so I will likely be coming back to Jong Ro Shul Lung Tang as I love their soups!"

"Food was good and reasonably priced. Staff was friendly and quick! The karage was definitely my favorite item.Cute shop, would not recommend for large parties."

Soup Shop

★★★★★ 4.6 (301) • $$

"Cute small shop in a big shopping center. I've gone twice and service was always great. They were always attentive and quick.I've had the pho brisket both times and both times it was amazing. The broth is so flavorful and fresh tasting. The brisket was tender and delicious.I could honestly just drink their broth and be happy.I also tried the fried bao, it was really good, I just wish it had some type of sauce or chili oil for it, it can be a bit dry. But the flavor was great."

Scarlet Kitchen & Lounge

★★★★☆ 4 (369) • $$$

"I met AR for an early, Wednesday evening dinner at the Sendero Marketplace, but we hadn't yet decided where to eat. We were limited to the nicer, sit-down restaurants, skipping over the casual spots like Jersey Mike's and In-N-Out. The two upscale options were Scarlet Kitchen & Lounge and Morena's Mexican Cuisine, both on the pricier side ($$$). Scarlet Kitchen, however, boasts a great Happy Hour, with a new "Reverse Happy Hour" every Friday from 8:30-9:30 PM. (AR mentioned it's usually packed here on Fridays. My guess is the evening Happy Hour.)Last time at the marketplace, AR & I dined at Morena's, where we had a fantastic evening of great food and service. So naturally, I assumed we'd be returning there. But AR surprised me with a curveball: she suggested trying Scarlet Kitchen & Lounge instead. Being the adventurous foodie I am, I was all in!We were greeted warmly by two hostesses and offered a choice of indoor or outdoor seating. The evening was cool, and outdoor dining seemed perfect, especially when the hostess brought out cozy throw blankets for us. AR quickly bundled up, and we chose a table away from another family dining outside, sitting side by side. It was a nice evening.Soon after, our waiter Nathan appeared with waters and an impressive spread of menus: Happy Hour menu, regular dinner menu, "Winesday" specials, and another drink menu - at least four or five menus in total.The menu is a creative fusion of American classics with a sophisticated twist. The variety of dishes showcase the chef's creativity and attention to detail. Decisions, decisions... With so many tempting Happy Hour choices, AR and I were both hungry, and everything looked amazing. After some deliberation, we finally placed our order but kept a few menus on hand - just in case we wanted to add more to our meal!Our order:Heart of Scarlet ($10) Happy Hour drink menuGluten free organic vodka, pomegranate juice, hibiscus, limeChefs Old Spirit ($11) Happy Hour drink menuBourbon, spiced apple syrup, cardamon bitters, dehydrated apple & cinnamon stick (Seasonal cocktail)Rueban Tacos ($17) Happy Hour menuSlow cooked pulled pork, sauerkraut, irish white cheddar, romaine, scarlet sauce, choice of corn or flour tortillaMediterranean Shrimp Risotto ($31.50) Standard menu; split orderWild jumbo shrimp, spicy white wine tomato sauce, portuguese linguica, parmesan risotto, parsleyChocolate Souflee ($12) Dessert menuRich chocolate cake, vanilla bean ice cream, fresh berriesGrand total: $88 (+tip)*See uploaded photosThe drinks were well-made. AR enjoyed her floral, Heart of Scarlet, describing it as both tasty and strong. I opted for the Chef's Old Spirit, a seasonal cocktail. It had good flavor but was a bit sweet for my taste (though the Spiked Apple Cider looked tempting as another fall option). The Reuben Tacos were a hit with both of us - great, smoky flavor and nice portions. AR & I also split the Mediterranean Shrimp Risotto. Our server, Nathan, kindly offered to have the dish split in the kitchen and brought out on two separate plates, to which we eagerly agreed. It saved us from the hassle of dividing it at the table - always a good thing for me, as I tend to make a mess. Truth. The risotto was creamy & delicious! I'm not sure if I've ever had risotto before, though I've certainly seen Chef Ramsey yelling about it on TV. AR was in the mood for it, and I'm always up for trying something new! I was pleasantly surprised to find linguica, a flavorful Portuguese sausage, in the dish. (Linguica is a staple in Hawaii, usually served for breakfast alongside eggs.)As we sipped our drinks, AR and I browsed the dessert menu and decided to split the Chocolate Soufflé - a perfect end to the meal.Overall, it was a fantastic dinner date with exceptional service. However, be prepared for a slightly higher price point, but for the level of service, atmosphere, and food, it's well worth it. (In all fairness, it seems the average lunch/dinner for two runs around $100 nowadays.) Whether you're celebrating a special occasion or just indulging in a night out, Scarlet Kitchen & Lounge is a fantastic choice in Mission Viejo. The staff was friendly, attentive and accommodating, frequently stopping by the table to check on the food, refill water glasses, and clear away empty plates.Scarlet Kitchen & Lounge in Mission Viejo is a hidden gem that balances modern flair with comfort. The ambiance strikes a perfect blend of cozy and upscale, with warm lighting and chic décor that set the stage for a great time. AR and I are already planning our return visit. She's eyeing the Lobster Mac & Cheese, while I'm keeping it simple--I just want to try a little bit of everything, especially the Eggs Benedict on their Sunday Brunch menu.Whether you're celebrating a special occasion or just indulging in a night out, Scarlet Kitchen & Lounge is a great choice!- Big Aloha!Food: 4Ambiance: 4Service: 5Value: 3+ (Good Happy Hour menu)"

Yuk Dae Jang - Rowland Heights

★★★★★ 4.6 (250) • $$

"Yuk Dae Jang has a Rowland Heights location... yes!!! This is one of my favorite Korean food establishments. Whenever I'm craving their amazing shredded beef soup (yukdaejang), this is the first place that comes to mind... it is incredible and one of the reasons I often struggle to give up meat!The service has always been good. The ambiance is calm and I love that they are located in a shopping center with plenty of parking. I have always loved this restaurant, since I started going to their Koreatown location, which was across the street from my former office. When I found out they had a San Gabriel location, I started frequenting that one since it was closer to home and to my new office. But now, with Rowland Heights opening this location, it has become my go-to, since it's so much closer to home!"

Tavern at the Mission

"Beautiful remodel of one of my favorites Cedat Creek Inn across from the mission.Lovely menu a variety of everything, cozy with a roaring fire. Full bar. Nice wine selection. Great service.Cozy, comfortable, very nice!"

Bonjuk and Bibimbap - Rowland Heights

★★★★☆ 4.4 (241) • $$

"My family and I was seeking a new place to try and came across Bonjuk. It's in corner of a complex building, so there's plenty of parking. The inside is on the smaller side and had a very modern look with a very simple menu. Nothing fancy. To my understanding, this is a chain in Korea, that leans more on the healthy side. They specialize in porridge, bibimbaps , and a few stews. With that, I went with the Mushroom & Bulgogi Bibimbap in a stone pot. I liked the presentation of the set. Makes it feel like lunch combo, perfect sized meal for a person. The main dish and sides overall tasted good. It's an okay spot, in my opinion."

Furiwa Togo

★★★★☆ 4.1 (175) • $$

"TIP: my husband and I decided on dim sum last minute and was able to order with a person but there was 25 min wait due to them being busy, to avoid any wait order online is the easiest way to go.Located at Twenty Eight restaurant, park in the Google/ Twenty Eight Parking structure.. don't worry about paying as you will get validation at the restaurant EATS: Shu Mai Flight : (2) shu mai, (2) shu mai w. quail egg,(2) shu mai w. lobster, (2) chicken shu mai with house chili oil - this was probably the best dish for us and I liked that we were able to get a taste of the different shu mai that they offered, my favorite was with the quail egg which gave it more richness in each bite Rice Roll with ShrimpGai Lan-(steamed chinese broccoli) - both these dishes were tasty and traditional dim sum items Turnip Cake - I was a bit let down that the outside was burnt, you can definitely tell in my picture lolShrimp Chili Noodles- these were flat noodles with house chili oil and shrimp... the noodles were on the dryer side and overcooked, it also came with an old lime and cilantro that looked like it was going bad. Overall the food was decent, I give this place a 3.5 out of 5. Spending over $70 on 5 dishes is kinda steep in my opinion and there were some areas where they missed the mark in quality. FYI we didn't get any soy sauce thinking they would provide that to us and we only got hot mustard because we asked, so make sure if you try this place to ask for both! If I were to try this place again I would only come back for the shu mai."

Pocha Eats

★★★★★ 4.7 (118) • $$

"Very easy to find restaurant with tons of parking. Sadly parking is plentiful because most of the businesses in this plaza seem to be gone. After awkwardly trying to get through their magnetic screen door curtain we were greeted by very friendly employees. Menu has a large variety of items and most seemed meant to be shared and accompanied by booze. Lots of pub style dishes. What brought us here was the "Pocha Bossam" which is soy glazed pork belly served with a delicious vinegary dipping sauce, raw green onion, daikon radish, and kimchi. We got the regular portion which was plentiful for two people to share. More than two people you'll want to get the larger size because this stuff is so good you'll want a big enough portion so you won't be fighting for slices. The employee made sure to let us know you want to grab a piece and eat it with the garnishes after dipping in the sauce. My wife and I both loved every bite and devoured it. The pork belly was braised or steamed so it wasn't crispy, just melt in your mouth tender. Just know they do not serves these with wraps like other Korean restaurants. You eat it with the garnish. I noticed some reviews are disappointed in this serving style so figured I'd mention it.We also ordered a serving of boneless chicken. What came out was a mountain of fried goodness. There's several flavors to choose from and we picked the soy garlic. It was more on the sweet side than I expected and I didn't taste much soy flavor but it was definitely heavy on the garlic. We ate a large amount but ended up tapping out and taking some home due to the enormous portion size. It tasted great the next day straight out of the fridge. Super crispy batter yet maintained moist tender chicken.To drink my wife and I shared a bottle of Green Grape Sochu. For $10 I was expecting this to be wine cooler strength but my wife and I had a pretty good buzz after polishing off the bottle. They had a lot of interesting sochu flavors so we'll definitely try another next visit. They gave us some pretzels with the drink.All the customers here seemed to be in a good mood. Service was so friendly you couldn't help but be in a good mood. Another employee was in the corner staging food for photos I assume for social media. He was taking pictures of bento boxes that I now see on yelp. Looks like they've expanded the menu since I was here a month or so ago. Can't wait to return!"

Potadoh

★★★★★ 4.7 (89) • $$

"A very fun new place with generous portions. We went around 6:30pm on a Friday night and there was one other party, but they were dining outside. When we went through the door, the person working behind the counter was extremely friendly and guided us through the different menu options. We ordered through the screen and were told the food would be ready in a few minutes. It's nice that you're able to see the food being put together and it was ready fairly quickly. We ordered the Dirty Dawg and Loco Moco potatoes and they both came in heaping portions. These were loaded with delicious toppings and the boxes were pretty heavy from all of the food inside. I appreciated that there were enough toppings so that you wouldn't end up with bites of just plain potato at the end. The toppings were fresh and one potato would have definitely been enough for two people. We were checked on a couple of times by the people working there and walked out of the restaurant very satisfied with plenty of leftovers for the next day."

Market House

★★★★☆ 4 (111) • $

"Need some Starbucks??? Pssst...check out Market House aka Disney's Starbucks!Located in Main Street, U.S.A., across from Carnation Café.Just like the Starbucks at Universal Studios, this Starbucks has pretty much become the meet up location for whenever my friends and I get together at Disneyland. We meet here before, during and sometimes after to rehydrate, replenish and/or regroup. 15% off discount (on food and drinks as well as Starbucks accessories, I believe) when using your Magic Key Pass.COVID-19 Safety Procedures (based on the latest COVID-19 Regulations): Face masks are required. Hand sanitizers are available and social distancing is practiced amongst some patrons (50/50). Overall, use your best judgment and stay safe! This was my first time checking out this Starbucks and it won't be my last! There's a lot of cute Disney/Starbucks affiliated stuff. Of course, they also have the Starbucks drinks and food. This Starbucks will take your Starbucks card, but just like the ones at Universal Studios and Knott's Berry Farm, they cannot redeem your stars, grrr! The lines can be pretty long here based on what time you're here. There's no seating inside. It's mostly order in here or mobile and take it to go. I was in line no more than 30 mins. In between, I was checking out the merchandise and was thrilled that they have Disney/Starbucks miniature ornaments, sooo cute! I ended up purchasing some.I also got myself a $3.99 Passion Fruit Tango Iced Tea - no sweetener and a $4.49 Smartwater Bottle. Both were refreshing and cold. Even the cups itself have Disney's logo on it, aww!The Cast Members (CMs) here are pretty nice. Teresa was my cashier and she got my order down quickly and wrapped up my ornaments protectively and securely. My drink was ready within less than 10mins and I was happily out the door with my merchandise and drink, yay! Overall, I dig this Market House (Starbucks) for a meet up location and when I need my caffeine fix!"

Tasty Spot Cafe

"Review #1080~(SGV, CA)~My mom and I walked in here for a quick take out experience since we were ordering dinner from their next door restaurant, 'Pho Rowland.' I also had to borrow the restroom which was kept super clean.From This recent visit about a couple days ago, we ordered a couple of dishes~Duck's Wings and Roasted Tofu to go. As soon as we finished taking out these two dishes, our order from next door's Vietnamese dinner was ready for pick up. Phone didn't get to eat first because it was just a quick take out experience: will add some next time. Parking: Free and convenient plaza parking provided. We must have had our lucky day when we showed up a couple days ago after visiting our family friends in Rowland Heights nearby here. Will likely return again i'm sure."

Cheezeup

★★★★☆ 4.2 (39)

"I have never heard or had cheese ramen before visiting Cheezeup. It was a concept that sounded interesting to me so I gave it a shot and I really enjoyed it! If you never had cheese ramen before, you have to give this a shot.Cheezeup is located inside of the Anaheim Food Co ghost kitchen and they're available for delivery and pickup only! The cheese ramen is brothless Mazemen style ramen and it comes with your choice of protein, veggies and cheese sauce. The cheese sauce is a secret blend of cheeses and ingredients and it's very rich and creamy. They also use high end steak and shrimp for this bowl which I really liked!The ramen noodles were cooked well and had a great texture to it. Adding the cheese sauce and mixing it with everything really gave everything a great cheesy and creamy taste. I would definitely come back for some more cheese ramen!"

An Noodles and Pho

★★★★★ 4.9 (26)

"Saw the sign in front of An Noodles and Pho before it was open, and waited in anticipation for the grand opening. It was finally time to visit this new La Mirada restaurant and explore its interesting fusion cuisine.We were warmly greeted by Jay who took our order, and a few minutes later had the pleasure of meeting Antoine the owner, who is not only super friendly, but also amazingly passionate about the food they prepare.We ordered the grilled pork vermicelli, the house special pho and the bulgogi ribeye sandwich (banmi). The pho broth was incredibly tasty and it was served with generous amounts of beef, basil, bean sprouts and not to mentions loads of noodles... it was a very big bowl!The grilled pork vermicelli was a complete surprise, as it did not have the standard thinly sliced grilled pork, but rather thick pieces of multilayer grilled pork with a crispy top and deeply marinated in some kind of lemon grass sauce. Not only was it juicy, but exploding with fantastic flavor unlike anything we've tasted before... an incredible find and a taste buds treasure to be sure. Almost forgot... the egg roll was out of this world too, a very unique taste experience.The humble bulgogi ribeye sandwich did not disappoint. The bread was perfectly flaky outside and soft inside while loaded with lots of veggies a super scrumptious and tender marinated ribeye.We are happy that An Noodles and Pho decided to open this location in La Mirada, and is now going to be one of our go to Vietnamese restaurants in the area. Can't wait to try all of their other dishes, it is going to be an incredible culinary adventure each and every time! Great food, great folks, great ambiance... what else do you need?"

BOSS. Pizza + Wings - Buena Park

★★★☆☆ 2.9 (16)

"The food is amazing! I tried the BBQ chicken pizza as well as The Works pizza and both were delicious! I also tried their sweet chili wings, lemon pepper wings & garlic parmesan wings which pair perfect with their yummy ranch. I'm picky with ranch and their ranch is definitely something worth using as a dip for wings, breadsticks AND pizza! The boneless wings taste amazing and are great quality chicken. I highly recommend the food I tried and I will continue ordering from this place! Thank you for having great service and phenomenal food during this pandemic! I will definitely be ordering again!"

Fritters

★★★★☆ 4 (4)

"Food was so good! Fritters Eatery is a gem for comfort food lovers, especially if you enjoy Mexican and Filipino cuisine. The excellent service and delicious food make it a place worth visiting. I definitely recommend giving it a try if you're in the area."

Bosscat Kitchen & Libations

★★★★☆ 4.3 • $$

"This place was a better listener than I was a communicater, waiter set drinks down as requested, but I misspoke when I said we will have two more when she's done... just not two more of these. He was great, but one of those boozy cocktails was enough. Edit: we drank the other two cocktails and they were fabulous, you can see from the picture served Neat and Strong.Food here is awesome, we ubered to the circle specifically to have drinks and eat at Bosscat, did not disappoint!"

Brew Hawg BBQ & Root Beer

★★★★☆ 4.1 • $$

"I miss living next to this place. I really come here for the fresh brewed Root Beer. It's great to see someone making root beer ready on tap using fresh natural ingredients during the process. It's flavorful and full bodied. I have had many Root Beers from all over the. Country and this is pretty good. I would give it 3.5 stars out of 5 The food here is great too. I love the BBQ Cone. Looks like ice cream but it's filled with a mini Bbq meal. It's awesome and I'm sure kids will love the novelty of it. If they don't like bbq I think they will now"

Aunties Bakery & Cafe

★★★★☆ 3.5 • $$

"The food taste great. This is my second time here, best time to come is before the morning brunch rush. Last time we waited an hour and felt rushed. Today we were taken care of and even had time for conversation. The only thing my daughter complained about, was the eggs, she asked for over medium and she thinks that next time she will ask for over easy instead. The bacon is nice and crispy, super delicious. The place is so clean especially the restroom."

Lazy Dog Restaurant & Bar

★★★★☆ 4.4 • $$

"Lazy Dog offers a fantastic range of dishes, from small shareable appetizers to hearty entrées, making it a great spot for any occasion. Whenever possible, we love visiting during happy hour--not only is everything delicious, but the reduced prices and the variety of options on the happy hour menu make it extra enjoyable. Even outside of happy hour, the food is consistently excellent.One of our favorite dishes is the crispy deviled eggs, a regular item on the menu that never disappoints. We also recently tried their seasonal special, the braised beef birria noodle, which features yakisoba noodles and slow-cooked beef. It was absolutely delicious. The dish was flavorful enough on its own, but the birria chili broth added a bold and unique twist.The service is typically friendly, and families will appreciate the kid-friendly touches, like a colorful kids' menu and crayons. My three-year-old had a blast scribbling on the paper and even brought the crayons home to continue the fun.Lazy Dog is a great choice for anyone looking for diverse, delicious food and a welcoming atmosphere."
