My server was really nice and knowledgeable about everything. The food was as issue for me it's was very very mid.

That's very unsettling for me when you can tell the chicken has a lot of GMOS. So I would definitely come back for drinks but I wouldn't eat any food from here

Stumbled upon this place by literally chance…read more They were going to close in about 40 mins and no one was there , but the waitress kindly welcomed my boyfriend and I. We ordered the crunchy sushi roll, the spicy Totonsku and edamame . The food was delicious!!! We never been here before and didn't know what to expect . Edamame was warm and snappy . Crunch roll was on the bigger side, exactly what you expect of shrimp tempura and imitation crab . Lastly the soup , very very spicy . We asked the waitress for about 6-7 of spicy and I think we got like 9. I am not complaining I though, I think we needed the heat . We had to eat the soup with the edamame simultaneously: it was that hot . If you like spicy order the spicy tontonsku, and also order a Pinot Grigio to go with it. Best combination ever , the brightness of the wine would cool down my palate as a gulped the fire water from the soup . If you don't like spicy , make sure you tell them you want it less spicy . Overall : I'm intrigued and want to go back . I did not give it 5 starts because it was very quiet , there was no music ; we can hear the food being made in the kitchen. Which to me it's not a problem, but having some nice melodic tunes wouldn't hurt the ambience neither. Come to Tamashii House if you dare !

The restaurant is small and intimate and has a small parking lot. We were able to find street parking right in front. There were a few people dining when we got there. We ordered at the counter and the staff brought our food to our table. We tried the 3 sushi rolls, fried dumplings, and the Yuzu Sesame Ramen. The ramen was by far my favorite dish! It was delicious and flavorful! I was pleasantly surprised and will definitely visit again to try the other ramen options.

After a full day at Universal Studios, we decided to stop by Margaritaville at Universal City Walk…read moreto avoid rush hour traffic congestion. It turned out to be an excellent idea. We happened to be there during Happy Hour. Happy Hour is M-F from 2-6pm. We ordered Margarita and Landshark Lager beer. They were both good. They were cold and refreshing. We also had shrimp tacos, cheeseburger and nachos from their happy hour menu. They were all delicious. The food came out quickly. My only complaint is that we do have to sit at the bar area to take advantage of the happy hour menu and pricing. I think it would have been more comfortable to sit at the main dining room area instead of cramming everyone at the bar counter while the rest of the restaurant was empty.

I really wanted to like this place much more considering how we were so excited to finally try it,…read moreof course the video where someone did a dining tour of every single one, and this is the only location in California. We came here on a Friday for lunch and we were seated immediately. Not that many other customers so service was pretty attentive and was there whenever we needed a water refill. I do have to say the theming of the restaurant is on point and I felt more at a tropical getaway at a beach than I did in an urban cement hellscape which is super nice. There is A LOT to look at from the decor on the walls and even on the ceiling, the tropical "birds", beach set pieces, pictures of Jimmy himself and much more. However, I do think it being a weekday lunch contributed to a bit of how bland everything was since it looks like it can be popping on a weekend night or when there's a live band playing on their stage. As for the food, I think this was a tad disappointing. If you stripped away the theming, I would not be able to tell this restaurant apart from any of the much more common, cheaper sit down restaurant franchises out there. I guess, never keep expectations too high, or at the very least with the "themed" restaurants in the US, it's just the decor and aesthetics and not necessarily the menu. I don't drink, but the others who did said their margaritas were decent. Nothing to write home about and similar to what they could possibly get elsewhere. I do have to say that they have a limited drink menu based on the Fan Fest Nights. My boyfriend got the Jurassic Park themed one and said it was a tad too sweet, but overall just a standard fruity alcoholic drink. I got a non-alcoholic pina colada and it tastes like a yummy pineapple coconut creamy slush. Not bad, but not substantial either. I got poke nachos and my friend got a poke bowl and it's literally the same poke but just with different carbs. Overall, it was mediocre at best. Can't really compare to places that do their own poke bowls, but the amount of tuna was not that much and I'll be honest, I wish there was at least a little more variety to this (choosing the protein for the poke, but alas). Other than that, the menu has the standard affair of pasta, Mexican dishes, chicken, salad, burgers, etc. Almost $200 for 4 people, so it was already a pricey start to the day and the fact that it was for just okay food that can easily be found elsewhere, I think I'd skip dining here unless it was super lively or there was more seasonal menu items.

Today, though, was different. Everything seemed a little off.

Hopefully, it was just an off day, because we've always had great experiences here in the past.

They got their food way faster and had to wait for me. - very long wait time to get food after paying - portion size is ridiculously small. The Mac comes in a hollowed out bread (which was yummy), but half of the entire thing is bread! And it had barely any chicken in it. Disappointing!

Street parking can be challenging but my friend and I got lucky with good spots. It's a very cozy place with a lot of seating meant for family style eating. It's a one man show by the owner Jerry who's the cashier, waiter, cook and dishwasher! You pay first then wait for the food, they do not accept Apple pay and Amex. The food came out not too long after. The classic plant appetizers tasted like a less oily, less sinless but still tasty version of their original counterparts (such as the beancurd and seaweed). They also serve air-fried not so stinky tofu, the classic, without stinking up the whole block and retaining that 'stink' in the taste. We had the "beef" noodle soup (jackfruit) and minced "pork" rice (impossible meat) both were bomb!! Great takes on the classic all stars without all the oiliness while still retaining the flavors we know and love. Jerry also had us try their potstickers which were just veggies only without the veggie meat and they were refreshing. He had us try their dandan noodles and the sauce and noodles were perfection! Overall, my vegan friend and I (non-vegan but an Asian food enthusiast) had a great experience trying out the food and learning a more vegan perspective about them from Jerry. Wish the parking could be better but if you're looking for a healthier version of Taiwanese food, definitely make a stop here!

So happy to find delicious vegan Taiwanese food. I wish this was closer because we only went here on the way to visit friends and it's so good.
