The service here was quick and the staff was very kind. I even recieved a lollipop after payment, I thought this was very sweet. The food was delicious, I ordered a teriyaki chicken plate with salad. Not a very busy spot and worth the trip especially during lunch hours!

First time going food, service, and quality was great I would definitely go again! Some nice seating areas to gaze outside as well.

Every visit the staff is welcoming and food is delicious. Definitely a gem on Sunnymead !

Special note for momma to be! The curry and teriyaki chicken are amazing!! And she added some free potstickers for baby

Been coming here for years and every time we come back it's like visiting family! They really care about their customers! I forgot my wallet and they let me order anyways and said I could pay them later. Who does that these days?! So much love here! Amazing food and incredible service! Welcoming ambiance!

I've eaten here over a dozen times and the food is consistently good. They're the only restaurant in the area that I know of with real deal delicious Galbi. The cashiers are always friendly and quick to take orders. My food is always fresh and their teriyaki sauce is great. The place is always clean and the workers are constantly tidying up after every customer. Come try their Galbi of Chicken Katsu plate. I just wish they had hawaii bbq style macaroni salad but I'll still eat here regardless!

A FAVORITE FOR YEARS! My go to is the chicken and galbi combo plate and a blended mocha. I've had good quality food and service here my entire life. Love supporting this small business and highly recommend to anyone who wants good food made in a timely manner in a clean and bright space.

Milk tea was full when i asked her nicely if she can take it back and switch it for me

I've had Cafe Gossip for 20-25 years and their chicken teriyaki has always been solid. The pork was great, but slightly overcooked. The major mishap was the dry curry chicken. I hope it improves because this is one of the few gems that's survived on Sunnymead. read more

There are three things going for this place first the teriyaki chicken is the best I've ever had. Second the prices are great for the amount of food that they give you and trust me. It's enough for two people. And third, the sauce is on the table especially the homemade hot chili sauce . When you put it on your meal, it brings out flavor and it's over the top. I would like to personally think Ned for preparing the meal and giving great customer service. Hey y'all give these folks a try before going to places like Ono Hawaiian BBQ read more

I have now been coming to this location for at least 15 plus years now and when I order a specific plate her I ask the owner for all salad under my chicken and it has been made this way countless times , this time the wife or female manager told me they don't make it that way and it's a extra charge , I told her that when her husband takes my order it has never been a issue .. so on that note it takes years to gain customers and second ls to lose them over maybe a dollar worth of lettuce. And I won't forget to mention the cook always looks irritated and in a bad mood at this location.. hide your cook if he doesn't like his job read more

I have been coming here for over 25 years, unfortunately the food quality has been declining in the last year or two, and the plates are served half of the amount they used to serve, and prices incresed too. On top of that, the service is even worse. The cashier lady did not have any customer service, she is always in a bad mood, on Sunday was my last time visiting this place. Even my seven year old girl noticed her attitude, she told me she was sorry for the way we where treated. When I visit a place to spend my money I expect at least a hello and a smile, this lady should be grateful to have a job and should be nice to customers, who can instead of choose one of the 20 restaurants from every block in Moreno Valley. read more

I lived a few miles from this place and I would go there all the time because their orange chicken had a vibrant orange flavor, not panda express orange chicken, but an "orange" as an orange from the tree. I recently went back after many years and everything was different back in the days they used to give you full pieces of chicken. It looks like it's just breading and tough to eat. I went in with my kids instead of making quality food like they used to they're now posting pictures of people that stole their sauce, well if you can't even give me a quality orange chicken and all I'm eating is bread and chicken maybe look into fixing your ingredients and going back to 10 years ago when you actually had decent food away from this place until they go back to their roots. read more

I know this because there is a sign posted about it. People please stop stealing that sauce!! Even the veggies are delicious.

There have been times the staff seems high and blown out of their minds. Other times they are too busy chatting up with coworkers to acknowledge or provide even the basic decency of customer service. Then, more often than not you are treated almost as a bother. Due to the service here, I have stopped dining in and opt for calling a phone order to take out. On three separate occasions now, within the last 3 months, they have neglected the phones for orders. They would rather disconnect or turn off the phone completely to avoid any future orders. This comes as a surprise when in about 10 minutes of my first attempted call, I see a staff of four people, yet only one customer. I believe there was no excuse as to why they could not answer the phone. I confirmed they accept take out orders essentially until closing. I have always been mindful to not attempt to order within 30 minutes of them closing. The service here is appalling and truly diminishes their potential for how great the spot could be considering the food they have. Food on the other hand is a total opposite of the service, very flavorful and strong punch of spice at a level 3. My go to is the Wonton ramen with a miso base. Crispy rice is a great starter to share. The garlic ramen is also a great contender if you have a garlic craving. Open layout feels like a mom and pop shop. Overall pretty clean establishment. Occasional tweaker going in for the bathroom closer to the end of the night.

We've been to this Olive Garden many times, so we know what the usual portion looks like. After we brought it up, manager Freddy came over with a replacement plate.

Rather than taking accountability, he made us feel like we were the problem for speaking up. Customer service starts with management, and this interaction left a bad impression on what was supposed to be a birthday celebration.

No solution. No accountability. To make it worse, the employee I spoke with at the Moreno Valley Olive Garden refused to even give me her name when I called frustrated and trying to figure out what happened. Completely unacceptable customer service from both Uber Eats and this Olive Garden location. With all the dining choices available, I will never order from this Moreno Valley Olive Garden again. Huge waste of time and incredibly disappointing experience.

Jade China

I was really craving Chinese food since I'm away from home, so my friend and I decided to try…read moresomewhere new and came across Jade China. I'm honestly really glad we did. The restaurant itself is super spacious, and since we came at kind of an odd time after the lunch rush, it was really calm and relaxing inside. We ordered the Salt and Pepper Calamari, and it was really good. The calamari was crispy, lightly seasoned, and still tender inside, which made it super satisfying to eat. I do wish it came with a dipping sauce, but we already had sweet and sour sauce on the table and ended up using that instead, which actually paired really well with it. We also got the Chicken Pad Thai, which honestly impressed me a lot. The portion size was huge for the price, I think it was around $12-13, which felt really worth it for how much food we got. The noodles were flavorful, well cooked, and had a good balance of savory and slightly sweet flavors without feeling too heavy. The people working there were really welcoming and kind, and it felt like a family-run restaurant, which made the experience feel even more comforting and homey.

March 2026 Came in…read moreon a Sunday craving mapo tofu. I checked the menu and there it was. Service: typical Chinese restaurant. Don't expect refills or conversations about the day or the meaning of life. Bathroom: clean. Toilet and a urinal. Food: Before my main course arrived, I was served a small cup of egg drop soup and some crispy noodles with some type of sweet dipping sauce. Considering these were complimentary, I'm not going to complain. Soup was my okay. my mapo tofu came with a side of white rice. Upgrading to brown or fried rice will cost you an additional $1. This is the most bizarre mapo tofu I've ever had. Rather than the traditional ground pork and wood ear mushrooms, this came with long strips of fried pork and no mushrooms. I'm also used to thicker sauce, but this one was very watery. A tad spicy, but not over bearing. Maybe a recipe from a different Provence of china? Not what I was looking for. $15.00 later and a fortune cookie...and I was done. Not sure if I'd come here for the mapo tofu again. Others in the restaurant offered the 2-3 item combos. Typical orange chicken or Kung Pao chicken w rice or chow mein. Not my thing.

I will say it is probably better for takeout, but either way, it is absolutely one of our top picks.

The location is just okay as it is in a small strip mall, and parking looks like it can be limited. The food was great, I got the Pad Thai and the Yellow curry to go. Both were fresh and solid dishes. Plenty of meat and veggies in both and they tasted pretty authentic. The only thing was the Pad Thai was a bit too sweet and flavorful. The service here was really awesome and nice. I do wish they turned the ac up a bit higher though on a triple digit summer day, but not a big deal. Overall I'd recommend this spot and it's one of the best Asian restaurants in the area!

And I immediately could see why. The young lady at the register.. so so sweet. And personable and polite. That's how you set people's vibe first thing in the morning. Options, options and options. The wings looked too good in the reviews so I had to try. Also had a breakfast sandwich with hot links. The sandwich was good, I really liked the hot links they used (I'm particular about my hot links). If you like your eggs a little on the runny side you'll 10/10, me 9.5. But now let's get into the wings. 100000/10. They are hard fried, and saucy! The buffalo sauce is the perfect blend of tangy with that little buffalo kick. Nothing crazy spicy. But so damn good, better than Wingstop. Yes I said it. Exactly what I want when I say buffalo wings (no slimy/soft skin). Great little spot! Okay Mo Val!

First of all, the servers well all friendly to us non-Spanish speaking customers. Restroom was readily available. Julia helped us order what we specifically want and explained the menu well. My husband is not eating much carbohydrates so Julia wisely recommended a Veggie Burrito with extra order of meat so make sure his burrito is not loaded with beans and rice. The portions were perfect for the value of what we paid for. Personally, for me, the guacamole and chips was the best I've ever had. We eat a lot of Mexican food but the quality, texture and flavor of the chips was exceptional. Maybe it's the lard but I truly don't care, it's the best!! I cannot say if I will be back because we do not live around this area but for people looking for great quality food, this is the place to be!

I use to come to this place maybe once every week and stop going because the food wasn't the same. The old owners had the place going but I am not sure if they sold it because it's not the same. I had a chicken teriyaki bowl and it was cold. I left the full bowl in the table and walked out with my drink which was the only thing that was good. I ended up in Mcdonalds which I wasn't trying to get cause I was craving that teriyaki chicken. The new cook sucks, the Hispanic guy needs to come back and fix it. read more

I started coming to this place since they opened which I believe it was in 2005. The owners are so friendly and the food is great! I lived in Moreno Valley for 15 yrs and now living 30 min away if I'm in town I make sure to make a stop here. Best HoneyDew Boba hands down. I've tried others and it doesn't compare. I recommend this place and if I could rate it 10 stars I would! read more

Always come to this location. Owner is very nice and clean. They are very fast with the food. The cook has been working there for many years and he never fails to make the food so good. I recommend the chicken teriyaki bowl it's very good. Multiple sitting spots with additional sitting outside. Their mocha is very good I recommend. read more

Their food is average. I usually order the chicken bowl when I want a fast yet decent meal. The udon tastes the same as other similar establishments. I really like the flavor of their milk tea. The flavors of their drinks are limited so I'd recommend more of a specialty boba shop for variety. read more
