Because it was from a DoorDash order so saying I had to request a stupid refund, what a total mess. Mo if you're reading this, I've been coming in here for the last five years. This is the worst out of all visits... I couldn't believe I had to have an attitude with your Manager, she was so incompetent in the situation and her best response is "I just work here" took absolutely no ownership in the situation, and was so uninterested on helping. She didn't know how to process an exchange and redo the order., and if your phone line was only working so I can call in to tell them to remove the onions, none of this would've happened, You should empower your staff and give them the authorization to do things when you're not around, so this kind of screw-up doesn't happen again. I'm irritated, This is not how I wanted to spend my weekend.

Nguyen's Kitchen was such a pleasant first experience! It's a cozy little spot in Carson with a…read morewelcoming atmosphere that's perfect for grabbing a casual meal. I also loved that they have healthy açaí bowls available in the same building, which is a nice bonus if you're in the mood for dessert afterward. For my first visit, I ordered the Garlic Noodles with Bulgogi Short Rib Steak, and it definitely did not disappoint. The garlic noodles were flavorful, and the bulgogi short rib steak was tender, juicy, and cooked perfectly. The dish comes with two sauces, and they really elevate the meal. The cilantro-lime green sauce has a nice kick to it, but it pairs incredibly well with both the garlic noodles and the steak. The sweet and savory brown sauce was equally delicious and added another layer of flavor. Every bite was satisfying, and you can tell they use quality ingredients. The service was friendly, attentive, and welcoming, making my first visit even more enjoyable. The restaurant itself has a clean, cozy ambiance that makes you want to sit back and enjoy your meal. Overall, I'd give the food a 10/10. The quality, flavors, and portion size made for an excellent dining experience. While the menu is a bit of a splurge, the freshness and taste make it a place I'd happily come back to when I'm craving a flavorful Vietnamese-inspired meal. I'm already looking forward to trying more items on the menu!

The same thing happened on our second visit, and we were honestly heartbroken. However, Sunny (I think that was his name) went above and beyond to make sure we still got to experience their food. He kindly gave us samples of the Spam musubi and fried chicken to take home. That's 100% top-notch customer service right there! Since then, we've returned twice more with friends, and the food has been absolutely amazing. The shrimp is hands-down my favorite, and the karaage chicken with the green sauce is super addictive. I also finally got to try the crispy Spam musubi, which was unique and delicious . We'll definitely keep coming back. In fact, I'm tempted to throw a party just so I have an excuse to cater from them! Even though they're located inside a food hall, you can take your food and enjoy it anywhere in The Enclave's spacious outdoor seating area, which makes it a great spot to hang out and enjoy a meal with friends.

Note: I'm pretty sure this is a cashless business--there was no cash register, and the tablet…read moreordering system didn't offer a cash payment option. I like this place. Sometimes you crave a quick pasta meal but think your only choice is a sit-down restaurant. Pasta Stories is a fast-casual spot in the Tokyo Central food court. The process is simple: step up to the counter; order and pay on a tablet device; and grab a seat in the food court. They'll call you when your meal is ready. I tried the "Osaka," spaghetti with Wagyu beef meat sauce. The pasta was al dente, and the sauce was flavorful but lighter than most restaurants--less salty, with more subtle flavors. Browsing the menu, you'll find all the meals competitively priced compared to fast-food combos. However, each bowl is made to order and leans more toward scratch cooking than the processed fare you'd get at a fast-food restaurant. One last thing: I tend to avoid ordering pasta to go because if the kitchen isn't careful, ithe pasta keeps cooking and soaking up moisture during the commute. That's not a problem here. When they know it's a takeout order, they adjust their cooking and package the pasta nicely. The bottom line is you won't end up with soggy pasta when you get home.

Pasta Stories is a food stand located inside Tokyo Central at Pacific Coast Hwy & Hawthorne (close…read moreto Rolling Hills Estates). Each pasta is inspired by a different region of Japan and this is one of the few places in Los Angeles / Orange County that serves fast casual Japanese pasta. [Parking]: Plenty of parking spots within the parking plaza. [Ordering]: Customers place an order via a kiosk and pick up their order at the counter. [Menu]: The most classic pasta is Napolitan Spaghetti (Yokohama). Yelp's top highlighted dishes are Wagyu Beef (Osaka), Seafood Pasta (Ehime), and Matcha Cream (Kyoto). *** "Kyoto" Matcha Cream (Chicken - $15.50) & "Osaka" American Wagyu Beef Meat Sauce ($15.50): I personally liked Kyoto better than Osaka as the Kyoto pasta tasted a bit creamier with the matcha cream. Osaka was not bad, but it was not my favorite flavor profile. Each portion was just right so don't expect any leftovers to bring back home. *** Honestly I can see myself revisiting here and cycling through their menu. A solid Japanese pasta spot for anyone to stop by without breaking the bank.

Why has no one told me about this gem??…read more As soon as you enter the restaurant, it feels like your grandparents home. I mean that as a compliment, follow my train of thought now. There is so much love, so much heart that is put into the food. Additionally, the amount of food is coma sending. I finished the food and was so ready to take a nap in the warm weather. It's literally like eating grandma's food when youre a young child. The spicy tuna came out first and we were shocked at how delicious the fish was. There wasn't a lot of rice which I appreciated and that fish had a bit of a kick. Pair that with some wasabi shoyu and you're tasting some real goodness. The spam musubi was solid with the furikake. My only gripe was that it had a bit too much rice which could have been better balanced with a thicker slice of spam. Regardless, it was solid. Now the star was the chicken combo. Boy oh boy, that Ladybug Fried Chicken was amazing. The batter had so much flavor and added to the juicy chicken. Pair that with you salad and mac salad.. oh my.. youre tasting a slice of Heaven! Fair warning, there is some grinded celery in the mac salad, so if youre allergic then let them know. Otherwise, that aroma of celery added so much depth to the mac. I can't emphasize enough, there is so much love in the food and the servers take gooooood care of you. It was also amazing to see how much attention to detail the owners put in the restaurant. There is ladybug decor all throughout the place and hand drawn papers from customers. It was really neat to see how much love they receive from their customers.

My total before tip/tax was $12.50, which is amazing for the quality and portion! Other than base + protein, the bowls also come with pickled veggies, kimchi, broccoli, and a side of their green (cilantro jalapeno) sauce. The wait was reasonable considering they were also finishing up a pretty large order when I came in. All of the flavors worked so well! I was particularly surprised with the green sauce-I've had it with so many other cuisines but never thought to pair it with Korean food. The bowl was filling while still feeling healthy and nutritious. I will say the spicy chicken really isn't spicy (the kimchi is much spicier by comparison), so I would love for spice levels to be ramped up a bit. The interior is cozy in a homey-older restaurant type of way. There's a good amount of seating but it seems like a lot of people order takeout. I also noticed that the staff speak incredibly kindly with each other, which was so lovely to see! This seems like a small business you can feel good about supporting.

The only place that does okinawa musubi that I knew of is in koreatown, and I don't know of any spots that does onigirazu in LA. The okinawa style musubi was amazing and monstrously thick, thicker than some burgers I've had. I really enjoyed the shrimp tempura onigirazu as well, and will definitely be back to try the other varieties. I once traveled for 40 min in New York to try out a spot that also had shrimp tempura onigirazus, but they were only sold prepackaged and cold, so it's such a bonus to have them made fresh. Owners were extremely friendly and offered a large cup of cold water when I picked up my food which is a god send in this heat wave we've been experiencing. This is such a friendly and affordable mom and pop shop, and my platonic ideal of a restaurant. I would be a regular here at least twice a week if I was a resident, I'm jealous of the locals that can frequent this gem anytime they want.
