    One of my favorite Pho spots. It doesn’t look much but it makes up for in the taste and quality. They give you all the vegetables you need and they have great chili options. The fresh chili is my favorite it’s served cold and it’s really spicy you just have to ask for it they keep it in the fridge. I recommend trying it first. There service it good and they are nice and attentive no complaints there

    I cannot believe I have been eating here for five years ever since I first moved to the US. I have tried many pho places, but I still love the flavor here the meat is tender, and the broth and everything blend together in such a harmonious way. Everyone on the recycletattoo team eats here and often orders takeout for our American and Mexican tattoo clients to introduce them to what Northern Vietnamese pho tastes…

    Got food to go… pho noodles weren’t cooked all the way… pho broth was warm. None of the food was hot. More-so warm. Com Bo luc lac was chewy. Bun thit nuong was dry. Goi cuon was dry. Whoever cooked my meal did not make it from the heart

    Broth and portion size is good for the price. Good amount of meat as well. One of the best Pho spots here in Orange County. Was there when England vs Mexico world cup game was going on and their TVs were off sadly, but was able to just watch on my phone.

    Pho 45 in Garden Grove is a bright, busy, and very clean spot with a friendly vibe. We ordered the phở tái chín và viên and the phở tái nạm gân. The portions were generous and well balanced, with fresh herbs and noodles. The broth was light and I personally wished for a bit more spice aroma, but it was still one of the better pho experiences I have had. The service truly stood out. For a small mom and pop…

Honestly, he was one of the best servers I’ve ever had! The food came out surprisingly quickly, and everything was fresh, clean, and delicious. The quality of the food was excellent, and we really enjoyed our entire experience. Jack…

    We’ve been here four times now, which is probably the best compliment I can give. When Mo Ran Gak is at its best, it’s one of my favorite Korean restaurants in Southern California. When it’s off, the inconsistency keeps it from being a five star experience. The first visit was outstanding. The galbi was perfectly seasoned, not overly sweet, not overly salty, with great caramelization and tenderness. The…

    We’ve been at many Korean BBQ restaurants, but Mo Ran Gak is our top list favorite, from food to service. Banchans are fresh and change mostly daily except the basic banchans like kimchi and cucumber, they are different from other restaurants, significantly home made and delicate, seasoned well balanced. From cold to hot soup I guess every dish is well deserved to try. My unforgettable impression of Mo Ran Gak…

    The best Korean food I've ever had. The portions are huge and we realized we ordered too much food because we were expecting 'private equity owned chain restaurant' portions and we got Korean mom and pops portions. They gave us so much stuff on the house along with a variety of banchan and sauces. We ended up having 6 to-go containers. Our server was a chill guy who was prompt, knowledgeable and cooked our bbq…

    16 bucks for a little bit of dinner + dessert + snacks and coffee for tomorrow. Can't beat it! The flavors are on point too. Clearly, I love kimchi. I preferred the pan fried kimchi to the dumplings but who knows? You might like the dumplings more!

    Horrible experience!!!! I had a very disappointing experience with the beef quality. I was willing to pay extra for what was advertised as higher-quality meat, such as American Wagyu, but what I received was far below expectations. The beef slices for KBBQ were extremely tough—so much so that they were difficult to even bite or chew. This is not acceptable, especially at a premium price point. If you’re…

The grocery store has fast casual vibes since you mainly pick your groceries and go! 3. The staff were friendly and timely at the checkout lines!

    We came for a dance competition and stayed in a kids suite. For our week long visit there were plenty of activities to occupy our kids. This included two pools and a play area. The gym was decent too. Having the Starbucks on site was convenient but beware the drinks are all upcharged. Their breakfast buffet is well worth it, with all the food offered tasting amazing. The shuttle to Disney was also convenient. I…

    Had a pleasant 1 night stay at this property. This hotel has a Disneyland shuttle every 30 minutes. Although I arrived in the afternoon instead of the morning, as otherwise planned, I was still able to take the most popular rides with a Premier pass, came to the hotel for dinner, and then went back to Disneyland for more rides. I bought a pet rabbit the next day & since he was in his pet carrier the 15 minutes…

    Came to visit my family and I was starving, I checked online and found this great spot. I’m not the type of person that tries new restaurants because I’ve had bad experiences and I kind of regret because the food sucks or service was terrible. The food was amazing, the service was top notch, everyone was checking on me every 10 min. Overall a great experience. Thanks again!

    I've visited this place a few times over the years, and it’s always a bit of a hit or miss, depending on your server. The food is consistently delicious, and it’s a great spot for large gatherings with family and friends. It's convenient, but the service could be more attentive. On a few occasions, I had to remind the staff for simple requests, like lemons for my tacos or even an item that was missed entirely…

    I had high hopes for this establishment after seeing how good the food looked online, but my first visit was absolutely terrible, and I will never return. Do yourself a favor and stay far away. Our server was incredibly rude and unprofessional. My food, while made fresh, was not up to par.

    This restaurant has a lot of mixed reviews. I decided to try it anyways. I went for breakfast around 8:30 am on a Sunday morning. There were not many people in the restaurant and it took a while before anyone came to take my order. I ordered a Mexican Omelette with Chorizo and Jalapenos. The Jalapenos were virtually tasteless. The potatoes were not hot and the toast came dry with no butter. I had to ask for…
