Wasn't sure what to expect walking into this empty restaurant but I'm glad I checked it out.They have really cool choices/variants for inari. Like at least 12 I think. It's a lil pricey but they are so good. Id def recommend a combo so you save a few bux and you get a free drink.I wasn't expecting too much from the drink but honestly it was really good. The Aurora has a nice touch of honey dew and at 50% sweetness I could taste the tea. I think next time I'd still opt to go lower to 25% sweet maybe.They have other things on the menu like beef bowls, curry, and katsu etc. as well as even sushi rolls.Overall, really enjoyed my experience and will def be back to try the rest of the inaris!

This small cafe is a great place to go if you're interested in small bites and/or a moderate meal. On first impression, this hub feels relaxing with the decor and multiple plants around you. It was quiet when I went and the staff were very friendly.I tried their Tropical fruit tea, chicken cutlet with Japanese curry, and eel yubu.The tropical fruit tea was pleasantly refreshing with real fruit and chia seeds in the drink. It was a little sweet, so I definitely recommend decreasing the sugar if you prefer your drinks less sweetThe chicken curry cutlet was great as well! The katsu was perfectly fried with a nice crunchy texture on the outside. The only complaint I have with this dish is that there was too little curry. I was disappointed that there was only a small amount which was not enough to cover the rice and cutlet.Finally, I had the unagi yubu, which tasted pretty standard. The eel was nicely cooked and the presentation was cute!Overall, I think this hub is a nice place to try, and I may return again to try their other dishes!

Had this place bookmarked for a while and was finally able to give it a try today. It wasn't very busy, and they did have a new menu up. I came came especially for the inari. I got the 4 inari and 1 drink combo which came out to 22.97. I got the galaxy drink which was very cool looking, and it tasted pretty refreshing. The chia seeds gave it a nice crunch.For the inaris, I tried the salmon, tuna, masago and eel. Masago was a miss. It was overly salty (I know that it should be, but didn't work well). The tuna was my favorite. It was smooth like butter and the sweetness from the rice and wrap helped balance it out. The eel had a nice smoky flavor which was excellent. The salmon was another good one. The mayo sauce they used worked well.Overall, a good place to check out if you're in the area.

Great mom and pop shop, there's only a few inari places in Southern California. Great takeout place, inside their shop is actually pretty small so limited seating to dine in. Tip: If you make a $20+ purchase, you can get one stamp on their card. Once you receive 10 stamps in total, you are able to redeem $20 off the next time you visit. Parking: Plenty of parking spaces. Easy to find a space available. 3 Inari + 1 drink: You can order any of their boba drinks/ sparkling drinks.Matcha Mountain foam: Not a big fan of their matcha. The matcha color was more on the duller side. Lemon Tea: So good, I would highly recommend if you wanted a bubbly fruit juice with fruit jelly toppings. Masago: Loved this. I'm a big fan of popping tiny fish eggs and texture in my food. One of my favorites along with the salmon inari. Bulgogi: So soft, tender and juicy. I loved that the inari was packed with beef. Crab (imitation crab): Very fillingly, they pack it up in that soybean wrapper. Salmon: So good! Salmon was really buttery. I wish that the rice pops were a bit more crispy. Eel: A little bit sweeter compared to the others because the eel has Terayaki sauce so that made it sweeter.

We've visited Picnic Time Cafe three times so far--twice through their online ordering system, and once dining in. Each time, the food was fresh and tasted just as good as the last, which says a lot about how consistent they are.The concept of the place is unique and fun. It's like a picnic or bento-style setup, but the taste and presentation feel elevated, like something you'd get at a fancy Korean or Japanese restaurant. Our favorite is the Picnic Special Yubu/Inari Combo Set. It's packed with so many options--unagi, avocado crab bomb, lemon pepper salmon, spicy tuna, massago, bulgogi, kimchi, seaweed/vegan mate, sweet corn--you honestly can't go wrong with any of them. We tried the 9-item set, which comes with two drinks for $40.99 if you order online. For the amount and quality of the food, it's totally worth it.I'm also obsessed with their cheese avocado smoothie. The first two times I had it, it was perfect, but the third time it tasted more like it had a green tea base. I'm not sure if they accidentally made something else for us, or tweaked the recipe, but it tasted great regardless, so I'm not complaining!When it comes to service, dining in feels a little more casual--kind of like a fast-food vibe--but they're still super thoughtful. On our third visit, we were waiting to pick up our order, and one of the staff gave my 3-year-old a bag of gummy bears. It was such a sweet gesture, and it worked like magic! My kid ended up eating way more of his unagi bowl because of the gummy bear reward system we came up with. It's these thoughtful gestures that make a place memorable.The restaurant itself has a lot of personality. There's a cool popcorn machine, cute decor all around, and walls that are perfect for TikTok videos or photos. I also found out they have a stamp card: for every $20 you spend, you get a stamp, and after 10 stamps, you get $20 back. That's a nice little bonus for regulars.We really love this place and will definitely keep coming back. The food is great, the atmosphere is fun, and they've been nothing but kind every time we've visited.

Small little local eatery, take out joint, located in a small mall.It really is a hole in the wall type of place that is easy to miss.The key is to not miss it, because you would definitely be missing out.On the surface this place looks like those 1990s early 2000s take out sushi, teriyaki places, that really is instead an epic high quality eatery.Every type of Inari here has a very complex taste and the sum of all parts equals into an amazing flavor bomb.Overall please come so you don't miss out. Can't go wrong with anything on the menu.

Very cute cafe with specialty in inari of various different flavors. We tried various flavors, avocado crab bomb, masago ship, grilled bulgogi, and spicy tuna. The masago ship was a little on the salty side, but everything else was spot one. We also tried the tea and drinks, but I would just stick with the inari. They're not very big so I think 2 to 3 will do for a meal. They're also very cute to give you a plastic glove to eat it so you won't make a mess.

Went here for the first time since I was craving for some inari. This small shop is very cute and cost with very delicious inari. The fish was very surprisingly fresh and the cashier was very nice as well. I would go back here again and would recommend others to try it out

Stopped by on a Sunday morning right when they opened. Super small shop with only a few tables inside. Ordered the 9 piece set with a drink combo for take out. I enjoyed the bulgogi and the salmon. I like that the inari isnt as sweet here cause that tends to take away from the flavor. The galaxy drink was a bit too sweet for my liking though. Perfect spot for a quick mini snack (or meal, if you really wanted to).

Service was super good, owner would check in on food taste and water. The salmon and crab Inari is good. Thai tea boba is on the sweeter side with smaller boba. Would recommend drink and inari combo over any bowls
