    Chicken Pad See Ew Chicken

    Don't hesitate, just go! We were looking for a quick place to eat and randomly found this place and it was the best. The restaurant was clean with a nice table for the family, the people were very kind, and all of the food was sooo flavorful! We got the veggie noodles and the chicken pad see ew and each plate was plenty for two meals. We will definitely be back

    Entry way - caught them eight before they closed.

    Do yourself a favor and try the soy glazed boneless wings. My family also loves the garlic noodles and filet. Owners and staff are so kind and gracious. Highly recommend. I will be trying other things from the menu as well. 5 stars.

    Second time here, dined in for a late lunch. Place was empty, but very clean. Staff was super sweet and friendly. Ordered: orange chicken with rice, cheesey bulgogi fries, Thai tea + caramel milk tea for $45. Huge portions, and both entrees were very good. It was my first time back in a long time, and it did not disappoint.

    Orange Chicken with Rice
    Bryan F.

    Friendly service and immaculately clean restaurant. Have a variety of noodle and fried rice dishes with some additional specials. We tried the garlic noodles with shrimp which were great in flavor but were missing a vegetable or something. The orange chicken is delicious and a great value portion wise. The dumplings were solid. Overall good food, would definitely try again!

    Orange Tofu

    Friendly Service - Cashier and Owner were very friendly Good Food - Food was delicious Good Value - You get a lot of food Apparently this place has been around for several years and we are now just discovering it. I work down the street from this place, but it never showed up on Yelp for me, so hopefully this post gets more attention. Lots of options for vegetarians and some for gluten-free eaters too. My friend ordered an orange chicken bowl, which looked really good. I asked for the same thing, but to substitute it with Tofu. It wasn't on the menu, but they honored my request. It was really good! It's hard to find a lot of good Tofu dishes, so if you are Tofu eater like myself, then you should give this place a try.

    The food at this small little restaurant was delicious! I had garlic noodles with beef filet. The noodles were slightly chewy and slightly garlicky. The beef filet was so tender! Others in our party got fried rice with bulgogi beef and fried rice with beef filet. You can't go wrong with the garlic noodles or fried rice. I will say, however, if choosing between bulgogi beef and filet, I think the filet is the way to go! They also offer boba drinks. Service was friendly. Clean and well kept. Inside seating is limited.

    The food is so tasty! Has good flavor and the portions are great! Service was excellent, I got a recommendation and it did not disappoint! They have music playing inside, it's not loud to the point where you can't hear other people talking so it gives a good vibe to the place!

    Garlic noodles with shrimp and orange chicken

    What a gem! We found 194 Eatery through the Yelps when we needed a bite to eat before a matinee show at the La Mirada Performing Arts Center, and what a find it was! Now, it's tradition to stop by whenever we have a show in the area. We've had the beef bulgogi, pad see ew, garlic noodles with shrimp, and orange chicken. The food here is surprisingly solid! For a small store that serves food in plastic to-go containers, the flavours are pretty good! We haven't tried their drinks yet, though. Staff is super friendly, and the owners are cute. We love supporting small, family, and local businesses, and this place checks all the boxes! It's run by a couple, and the husband is the chef. We couldn't figure out why it was called 194 Eatery, but after some conversation with the nice lady, we learned that this number was chosen because it was her husband's weight. That's a fun fact if I've ever heard one! 194 Eatery is located in a small shopping area with a small parking lot. There are a few seats inside, and we've only seen it fill up once. Great prices for decent portions!

    Nice little mom and pop boba shop that offers great food! I ordered the orange chicken with garlic noodles. My vegan friend wanted to try the orange chicken sauce on top of the tofu, and the owner was more than happy to accomodate his request. He actually chatted with us for a while and told us about the history of the restaurant, which opened during the height of Covid. I will be back!

    I got the garlic noodles with sliced beef. It was good! It's a little on the greasy side cause of the beef but still good! The service was very good, very nice and friendly. Would recommend for garlic noodle lovers!

    Something is just different not in a good way. Been a fan and a supporter of this little place. But the last visit my wontons definitely not good. Didn't even eat them the first bite was like ugh no. Presentation looked right but taste was bad off not sure why but gonna pass on this place now. Not the same

    Tasty food! We ordered the beef garlic noodles, shrimp bowl, and beef bowl. They have a pretty decent selection of bobas. All of our food came out good. Drinks were yummy. We'd come back again. Oh and we loved the popcorn chicken! Service was great, they were friendly.

    Beef Pad See Ew Beef, shrimp Fried Rice, soy glazed wings
    Mayra F.

    So happy to stumble upon this little gem! I drive by everyday coming from work and I finally stopped by to try it out. I was not one bit disappointed. I got the pad see ew, which seems to be a crowd favorite, shrimp fried rice and soy glazed wings. Everything was so flavorful and delicious! Not too salty but savory enough. I really loved it all. The place is clean and the staff is super friendly. It took a while to get my food but I assume it's because everything is made to order. I highly recommend you check them out! Can't wait to come back and try other things.

    Went in at 11:15 PM and there were only two employees working. There were two couples ahead of us…read moreordering, and the lights in the main waiting area were turned off while we were still there. When it was finally our turn, they told us they were closing early at 11:45 PM due to being short-staffed--even though it was only 11:15 PM at the time and the posted closing time is 12 AM. They still took our order, but the interaction felt rushed and uncomfortable. While I was trying to decide what to order, they kept emphasizing that they were closing early, which made it feel like we were being pushed to hurry. I understand being short-staffed and didn't expect full service, but basic courtesy and clear communication would have made a big difference. It would have been more respectful to let customers know about the early closing when we walked in, rather than waiting until our turn after helping others. The overall experience felt unwelcoming and poorly communicated.

    I heard good things about this place. I ordered on the app a Thai tea 50% sweetened and The Bobo…read moreking. Our drinks were ready by the time we got there less than 10mins. The place looked great. Very empty. I was not greeted at all there were two young employees. When I walked in the guy looked at me and walked away. They both had headphones in. My drinks were ready on the counter. I asked the girl that walked up to the front if they were under "____" and she said yeah that's yours and walked away. Rude. We tasted the drinks. I was so excited but my husband said his drink was very sweet. I thought he was exaggerating. Nope. Extremely sweet and the boba had some hard ones. Mine had hardly any boba and was missing the caramelized brown sugar. Again the boba was flavorless and hard. It made my stomach hurt so I didn't even drink half of it. Super disappointing. There is a lot of room for improvement with the employee's attitude, customer service and drink making. It's a no for me. I rate 2 stars. 1 for the cute cafe and 1 for the wait time.

    Food: I ordered the strawberry matcha, and this was really good with creamy matcha on top and…read moregenerous strawberry puree on the bottom. There was also a yogurt-like cream on the bottom, and I personally could have gone without this cream, but loved the drink nonetheless! Service: You self order, and the drink comes out pretty fast in five to ten minutes. The cashiers are nice and call you by your name! Ambiance: The best quality about this cafe is it's such a nice place to study with many tables inside, a few tables outside, and a clean bathroom. Parking is also easy with a upstairs lot facing Vivot! There's also a bit of area to walk around the cafe for a study break! Also huge shout out to this cafe's hours as they're open from 7 AM-11 PM, so you feel no rush to quickly finish your tasks! Please come to Vivot for not only a refreshing drink, but a beautiful place to study that is open late!

    My second time here…read more Drinks: underwhelming. Not well proportioned ingredients between the chosen flavor, milk and matcha. Waterdowned with plenty of ice. Price: overpriced for both drinks and sandwivhes. Although I don't mind paying extra for a satisfying drink, this one is not one of those. Ambiance: the walls, decor, plants and furnitures needs plenty of improvement. It looked like they were going for a minimalist look but it seems too bland and all over the place. I appreciate the music but the overall ambiance is not very inviting. Service: self serve to order and they ask for tip? The customers are expected to clear the tables and put away food and drink containers. It doesn't make sense. Parking: it's downtown fullerton, unless you know the area, it might be difficult for you to find parking especially during peak hours. But there's a couple of parking structure nearby which is a plus because it's covered and free. By the way, I initially ordered the classic strawberry matcha for comparison to other matcha drinks I've had from other cafes and I came the 2nd time to try the matcha flight to give it a chance but I was underwhelmed on both times. On both occasion I ordered my drinks with coconut milk and it was so overpowering and matcha flavor is very mild and with addition of plenty of ice, it taste like a waterdowned green drink that's milky in flavor.
