    Rice burrito or Joint burrito?
    Diana D.

    Stopped by yesterday to Have their food again, I never had a bad experience with this place until today. We ordered wings and the "Joint Burrito" you can never go wrong with the wings. But unfortunately, the joint burrito was 95% only rice and very little meat. We went yesterday around 7pm and very sad that all I tasted was rice. I don't know how you guys portion the food but please make sure all employees know the best way to make these meals. I've had the joint burrito before and there was lots of flavors in this specific burrito. So it definitely depends on the cook.. but I don't want to gamble every time I come and "hope to get a decent burrito ". Wings were good as always.

    Exterior entry, and small patio dining area.

    Located right across the plaza from the Regal Edwards Theater at The Lakes Mall, this chicken shop was clean, however we felt that the food and service were just okay. FOOD: Nothing was bad, but nothing "wowed" us either. First, we ordered the Spicy Tuna Nachos ($12.95) appetizer, which was actually served last (not sure why restaurants don't understand the concept of an appetizer...it's supposed to come pre-meal). We tried the 12-piece Wings ($17.95), splitting the flavors between Lemon Pepper and Garlic Soy (flavors weren't very bold), as well as the Chicken Katsu Curry Bowl ($12.95), which I thought was a little dense/heavy. We also ordered both bottled and draft beers, and I thought that they could have been served much colder. Overall, it was only okay, and we decided that we probably wouldn't go out of our way to return.

    Chicken Teriyaki Bowl

    I've had this restaurant in my list of collection to try so I finally did today. The restaurant is clean, spacious, cool and had great music playing. The staff were friendly and patient since I wasn't sure what to order. I decided on the Frisco Melt. The patty had great flavor, cooked perfectly and was served on Texas toast. The fries, which it comes with were simple but, fire! Low key reminded me of McDonald's. My niece ordered the Chicken Teriyaki Bowl. Unfortunately, she didn't like the flavor of the sauce. If you're used to a sweeter, thicker sauce you probably wouldn't like it either. I tasted it and it's okay. I prefer a sweeter sauce. This is more soy sauce based. I could see this bowl being so good if that sauce was on point but, the chicken was cooked great and the rice was on point too! Overall, I would definitely recommend dining in here. My son added a sunny side up egg for $1.50 to his Melt and he absolutely loved it. We will be come back to try their wings. They look delicious!!!

    We ordered 50 wings with 5 different flavors. #1Garlic Soy #2Garlic Parmesan #3 Cajun were my Top Picks. The Joint Burger is the best burger I've ever tasted:):) A must try is the Joint Burrito:):) The Rice Bowls which we ordered 2 Korean Bbq that disappeared in 5 minutes:):)

    The price leans on the heavier-mid side, but I like how the place handles the Asian and Latin fusion balance. The workers function at a diner level and are quick and clean. The place is like a sports bar that happens to keep a fun balance between kimchi & aioli and tacos and nachos. Their "Joint" options are always a safe choice. Good place to eat before or after any movie you see at the local Edwards.

    Joint Burrito

    Far East Joint is in the Lakes plaza! You order first before seating, and they will bring your order to the table. I saw people sit and eat, but there were also a lot of people ordering to go. The Joint Burrito is one of my Top 3 burritos in the area. It is packed full with fried rice and bulgogi, each bite was perfect. This is a MUST order!

    Nachos - Way too small! I ate 1-2 chips after taking this pic and hit the bottom of the plate
    Roger N.

    I really wanted to like this place but they are too stingy with their portions especially the asada nachos. I ordered the asada Nachos and when I got home, I was super disappointed to see how little food they gave me. I ate 1-2 nachos and already hit the bottom of the container. They didn't even fill it out around the container. I wouldn't even be mad if they didn't give me enough meat but they didn't even give me enough of their stupid wonton nacho chips. The taste was pretty good 8/10 but no way was this plate worth $15. I know the economy is rough for everyone and they have to cut corners but these guys won't last if they keep giving out these BS size nachos.

    Love this place! Food is always fresh! We tried something new on the menu & it was pretty good, shrimp tempura bowl for all you non meat eaters lol. It came with rice & salad & it 3 shrimp, so yummy. I love their salad dressing! So just fyi this is not a fast food place. Your food is made to order so you will have to wait at least 10 minutes depending on what you're ordering. If you order wings you should call it in or order online prior to coming. However it's a great place to take your friends & have a drink bcuz they sell beer & soju & food is worth the wait. We also had the Frisco melt & joint tacos & it was awesome as usual. I love their fries!

    The place is small and clean. Service is good and friendly. Food on the other hand is fresh and good. Check out the pictures of what I ordered. Would come back again.

    Joint Tacos
    Cynthia N.

    Decided to come check this out since I was in the area. There are plenty of tables on the inside but their AC wasn't working. They DID have these high powered fans running but it was still hot in this 90 degree weather. Cashier was friendly and attentive. Checked in w/ us halfway through our meal. Ordered the Joint Tacos and Joint fries. The fries were decent. I was expecting a little bit more for the portion size from all the pictures I've seen online. It seemed smaller than the previous. The flavor was good but a little too sweet and salty. The tacos had the same flavor, however whatever cut they used on the meat made it very chewy. I doubt I'd give this place another try, especially with so many other choices in the area. Maybe I just tried the wrong things. But it's in a good area right outside the theater.

    I absolutely love this place. I'm from Huntington Beach, and I drive here to get the joint Burrito and joint fries. The joint Burrito is HUGE! It's filled with rice, bulgolgi, and kitchen, and they also put a spice sauce inside, which is BOMB. I split this with my wife, and we are both pretty satisfied. Super good. We also got joint fries to share, and it was delicious! The portion on this was surprisingly small. It could have used more fries and more bulgolgi but definitely very tasty and recommended. We also got a beef bowl for the kids. I didn't try it cause I was so full, but it looked great! My kids loved it. The service was outstanding, and the lady was very helpful with taking my order and explaining things to me. I told her I had little ones and they are very picky eaters, so she put everything for the bowl on the side. That was very nice. The little ones loved the beef. Anyways, if you're in this area, definitely try this place. Best bulgolgi Burrito!!

    i would give this place a 4.5-5 stars! the staff is super friendly and helpful. we got the onion rings, joint fries, and beef bowl. onion rings - really crispy! my niece loved it and it's not too much batter compared to the onions. joint fries - flavorful; bulgogi, cheese, with a hint of minced kimchi and green onions. it was the perfect shareable amount. the balance between the bulgogi and fries were good. beef bowl- bulgogi with rice and salad. the salad was more spinach with some croutons. the bulgogi was really flavorful and rice was decent. this makes you full! the only thing was that the music was super loud so i had to talk in the other person's ears. the joint fries were delicious, just a bit too saucy that made it soggy quick. i wanted more crispier fries with some sauce, perhaps sauce on the side(?)

    I hope this place never leaves the The Lakes plaza... it's one of the staples keeping it alive and for many it's an engrained part of growing up in the area. Going for a movie then out to eat here... to the mall, after school, etc. They have been doing fusion since before fusion was a thing! My favorites are the Joint Fries, Carne Asada Fries, and Joint Fried Rice. Service is always fast and honestly I don't mind the rising prices... you gotta do what you gotta do to stay in business!

The shop operates as a takeout-style counter offering an assortment of specialty drinks. Service was fairly underwhelming during our visit, as it took almost 20 minutes for our order to come out despite only ordering two drinks. **Honey Osmanthus Oolong Tea: 3.5/5** The freshly brewed oolong tea had a pleasant floral aroma from the osmanthus that came through nicely with each sip. However, I found it odd that the drink wasn't shaken or mixed properly before being served. Most of the honey had settled at the bottom, so my first sip was overwhelmingly sweet before I realized I needed to mix everything together myself. **Peach Green Tea: 3/5** This was a pretty standard peach green tea. Even at 30% sugar, the drink was surprisingly sweet, overshadowing the delicate vegetal notes of the green tea. It was still refreshing and perfectly drinkable, but there wasn't anything particularly distinctive about it. Partea NYC XP is a convenient stop for a quick drink, but the slow service and relatively ordinary drinks made the overall experience feel somewhat lackluster.

My personal favorite was the chili paneer since it had a slight spice kick. For the waffle fries, I highly recommend to enjoy that early on, as it gets soggy over time. My friends also had great remarks about the flavors. Looking forward to giving this place another try in the future!
