WHAT DO YOU MEAN MR. KATSU CLOSED? Where else am I going to have those potato puffs now?…read more Mr. Katsu had the thickest katsu sandwiches I'd ever seen. The bread was so pillowy and soft. The katsu was crispy and cooked perfectly. The standout for me, however, were the potato puffs. They were incredible. They're lightly crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. The flavor is amazing. The cherry on top was the delicious yum yum sauce they came with. I'll miss Mr. Katsu dearly... the food, service, ambiance... everything. Maybe one day we'll meet again... old friend.

Deliciousss!! :D…read more I've never had banh khot before, but my friend was raving about this place as it is his go-to spot! We came on a Friday afternoon, and it didn't look too busy. The inside didn't really have a lot of seating, but they also have some outdoor small seats. We were told it was going to be an hour wait, so we just went ot a cafe nearby. Because of this, I would also recommend ordering beforehand. When we picked up the banh khot, it was super crispy and fresh! The lettuce and pickled veggies were refreshing. I would go here again, but would just order before coming. YUUUMMM

Banh khot (20pc to go box): 9/10. Subtracting 1 pt since it's expensive af ($35.49 for 20pcs) but it is otherwise so fresh & crispy & has the perfect hint of coconut. Comes with fresh veggies, pickled veggies, & nuoc mam that is a little garlic-heavy but pairs so well with everything. I'd definitely come back!!

While in OC, my friend and I grabbed an early weekday lunch at KooKoo Grill. The place wasn't very…read morebusy, and the parking situation was super easy. The dining capacity was rather small with enough tables and countertop space to hold a couple of dozen customers. The menu featured Asian fusion offerings of the fast food variety. The Kookoo Balls and Kookoo Fries did look interesting but were probably too filling as I wasn't extremely hungry. I decided to order a basic item in the form of a Chicken & Beef Teriyaki Bowl. My dining companion selected the Stir Fried Udon Noodles with half beef and half chicken. A tray was brought out to our table and then I dug into my food. I noticed the rice was fluffy while the meats were about the same as any place that serves it teriyaki style. I guess I shouldn't have expected more by ordering such a plain bowl. For the price and quality of our order, I gave a three star rating for our meal at KooKoo Grill.

We stopped by here on my birthday for a nice evening dinner. Got there a little before sunset. There's just something magical about eating outside during a sunset, especially at the Orange Plaza. The restaurant has such a cool look and vibe! We started off with the Hamachi crudo, salmon ceviche, and a bowl of clam "chowdah". The crudo was absolutely delicious, highly recommend. The salmon ceviche was really good but a bit heavy on the sauce for me. The clam chowder had whole clams in the shell throughout. That was fun to pick them out! For entrees we got the lean and mean plate with sea bass. It comes with salad and rice, we substituted the rice for black beans. We also got the skirt steak "bulgogi" which was served on top of mushrooms and bok choy with a sweet soy sauce. They accidentally brought out salmon instead of sea bass, but were very apologetic. They brought out a sea bass on the side and comped the entree to make up for it. Great service right there! The salmon and seabass were both delicious and cooked perfectly. The steak was tender and juicy, full of flavor. As a birthday gift they brought out a thai milk tea blondie sundae which was soooo good! Get it if you like sweets. I wish the owners all the best in their future endeavors, they created a great restaurant that many will miss. Thanks to all the servers, hostesses, cooks, and bussers as well for making my birthday dinner so special!

It has a really fun, hip vibe and would be such a great spot for parties or bigger groups. The food was just as amazing. Their fusion of Mexican and Asian flavors works so well. We ordered two of the chicken sandos and their pork belly fries AND they absolutely hit all the right spots. The chicken in the sandos were crispy on the outside, perfectly juicy on the inside, and packed with flavor. Oh, and be sure to ask for extra Tim's sauce - definitely worth raving over. What made it even better was hearing that they braise the chicken for hours before it even hits the oil. That kind of attention to detail really shows in every bite. Definitely a spot we'd come back to.

Both are so consistently good. The seasoning and blend of flavors is honestly so on point. The pork belly are those like thick cut style with great chewy texture. Portions are pretty sizeable (fries are easily shareable between 2-3 people). Special hack: share half burrito with fries. Each bite of burrito is paired with a fork-full of the fries with the pico and sauces. EZ MONEY. Since everything is made-to-order don't expect like fast food levels of speed, but that being said it's still relatively quick (think I waited like 11 minutes?) Unless you're willing to buy drinks (they just have bottled/can only so no refills), water isn't the easiest to get since you have to keep asking a worker (they have like a big bottle that they pour water into). ***pro tip: get Baja blast from the Taco Bell right next door :)
