    Taro ice cream
    Jasmine D.

    First time here - employees are quick to greet you and eager to offer samples of whatever you want to try. They have bins of jerky of various types and flavors, as well as dried fruits. I told the kind woman that I wanted something sweet and spicy, and she immediately selected a beef jerky that fit my request. I also sampled a mini crab, which was a mix sweet & spicy and crunchy...sooo good! Pricing varies, and posted by the pound. We also got a scoop of taro ice cream, which was "not too sweet" and refreshing on that hot summer day. Would definitely be back if I'm on the area.

    what to expect from the beef jerky. Overall, it was a decent experience. The shop is small and somewhat cluttered, which makes it feel a bit cramped. The staff were friendly and enthusiastic, and they offered samples, creating a relaxed and comfortable atmosphere. Parking is limited, but it's not too difficult to find a spot.

    I stopped by here to buy Com Chay for my sister and ended buying some Xi Muoi Me Tac. I asked for half a pound but they packed just over a pound. They are using the same tactics of Vua Kho Bo, over pack items to boost sales. The quality was terrible, lots of sugar and seeds. I can get this quality from the grocery store for a fraction of the price. I will not be coming back.

    Waste of money. Son's 'customized' ice cream cake. What a joke for $70. 8"
    jane m.

    -10 points if possible. My son's "customized cake" cost $70!!! 8 inch, simple vanilla cake. Showed her a picture and this is what she came up with. The sprinkles tasted like it expired 10 years ago (all four of my sugar- loving kids refused to eat it, so that tells you something.) The cake is lop-sided, the cream has an aftertaste. The cake was dry and the ice cream was gooey (hard to mess up vanilla but it was bad). Definitely not worth the money in any way. Just a warning for others considering to get a customized cake from them. A 9" well designed cake at baskin robbin is way cheaper, and there are more flavor selections. Edit: to the owner- I know you never "intended" to make a terrible cake but, the important thing is to acknowledge the possibility that you did. Can you seriously look at this lop-sided, messily decorated cake you made me and claim that if you had paid $70 for this, you would be happy? Yeah, I believe you when you said you made it the day of pick up, but rather you took 10minutes or 1 hour to make this is the bigger question. Plus, when I got there, your helper didn't know what I was talking about. When she called you and realized where the cake was, she didn't even know how to box it. It was a chaotic experience. I'm just saying that if you can't make quality cake while charging quality money, then consider taking them off your menu.

    Bought 10/17/25 Expiration date: 10/18/2025

    This was my first visit and support this store after meeting my family. We stopped here to buy some tea for my mother-in-law and some snacks. The customer service and cleanliness were satisfactory. However, after returning to my mother-in-law's house in San Diego, she told me the entire bag of tea we bought expired Tomorrow!!! We bought it on 10/17/2025, and it expired on 10/18/2025. I called the store politely to report the issue and ask how they could help. They replied, 'We are busy right now, we will call you back," but as of today, 10/21/2025, I haven't received a return call. Please check all products before leaving the store as my recommendation!

    Lots of selection. Both ladies helping out were detailed and helpful. Was able to try different kinds of beef jerky. All were tender and flavorful. They also have ice cream here which is a plus too. Very clean location and well lighted.

Great Options for all dietary needs; Proteins, Carbs, Vegetables, Seasonings, Snacks, etc. They have protein shakes available too. I chose Shrimp with Smokey Chipotle Seasoning along with Zucchini & Cauliflower. It was all delicious. I don't have a pic of food but it was $16.49. I figured it would cost at least that eating out.

This Huntington Beach concept serves up pre-cooked and seasoned meats, veggies, and starches by the ounce. I visited for the first time this past weekend and stocked up on three meals as a tester. My picks were the chicken meatballs with teriyaki sauce, sweet mashed potatoes and zucchini, the ground turkey with super greens and brown rice, and the honey ginger chicken with super greens and diced potatoes. While I wouldn't expect your grandma's cooking, the meals have been great so far. Quick and easy, healthy options, while also keeping me well fed during a busy week. I'd love to see this concept bring in a juice brand in the future! Having pre-made green juice would be another helpful item to knock off my list before the week.

The experience was…read moreintimate, warm, and beautifully executed from start to finish...every dish told a story and every detail felt intentional. We began with the Aji tuna on crispy rice, topped with a delicate sliver of jalapeño and crispy shallots, a perfect balance of freshness, spice, and crunch. The second course was Stefanie's famous focaccia...one sweet and one savory. The savory version featured parmesan, her homemade bread and butter, pickles from her garden, and a touch of mustard seed. The bread, made simply with flour, water, and salt, takes two to three days to create. The sweet focaccia was equally impressive, topped with brie, honey, and a guava jam made from her own garden-grown guavas... truly special. Next came the sweet potato course, made from her garden's harvest and paired with roasted pine nuts and coconut-shaved gnocchi in brown butter. The flavors were rich yet comforting, and the presentation was artistic and thoughtful. The main course... short ribs with a stunning potato gratin, was a showstopper. The short ribs were tender and deeply flavorful, garnished with delicate edible flowers from her garden, while the gratin was layered beautifully and topped with a fragrant chimichurri. Dessert was one of the best I've ever had: a sticky toffee date cake with a caramel apple sauce made from apples in her garden, served with raw cream vanilla bean ice cream. The balance of warmth, sweetness, and texture was perfection. The wine pairings, thoughtfully curated by Oscar from Sequoia Grove Winery, elevated the entire experience, from the velvety Merlot to the bold Cabernet, every sip complemented the food flawlessly. What makes Chef Stefanie so special is her warmth and authenticity. She shares her passion for food and where it comes from in a way that's engaging and educational, never pretentious. She spends time presenting each dish beautifully, with an artist's eye and a chef's heart. Her artistry, attention to detail, and genuine love for her craft come through in every course. I'll absolutely be attending her future chef's table events, a beautiful evening of intentional cooking, soulful flavors, and gracious hospitality.

I am on my third set of meals, and I really love it so far. I think it is a great value for the convenience and quality and I like their selection and diversity. Their packaging is also really great, and everything is very intentional and organized. Every couple of weeks they change up the menu I appreciate being able to do swaps as well because I can't eat broccoli/cauliflower anymore Everything was really easy on the sign up and I was contacted to arrange delivery right away. Communication is consistent and great, any issues I can directly communicate with someone and it will be handled right away. I am very happy with the service, and I love supporting as local as possible! I would definitely recommend to try if you are interested in a meal prep service and are local in their service area. I think if I could offer any feedback it would be great if there were some vegetarian options or swaps available someday?
