The trade ups seem to be changed every quarter but they always have Sanrio, Pokemon, and labubus as well as other popular blind boxes. The owners are always willing to help move the claw machine items to make it easier. All the employees are nice and helpful. Shoutout to Dennis for always helping with a smile. Also, I like that this claw machine shop allows you to save tokens to use for another time. I like to buy the bigger packages and save them to use for next time.

The hubby and son wanted to stop by Oki Doki Cranes since we were in the area and I am so glad we…read moredid! We met who I think was the owner, Mel and her daughter and they were so lovely. Found out they were fellow BTS ARMY, so I know they're good ppl, lol. Mel was so sweet and gave me a BTS Arirang themed freebie. Love meeting ARMY in the wild. The claw machines are super fun and stocked with great prizes - from Pokémon plushies to South Park characters (you can even rip off Kenny's head! "OMG, they killed Kenny! You bastards!"). A wide variety of prizes, so something for everyone. Next time you're in Garden Grove and want something fun to do, stop by Oki Doki Cranes!

I'd give this place more than 5 stars if I could. The games are fun, and we came home with a bunch…read moreof prizes, but the people that work there are really the reason we come back when we visit for Spring Break every year. Justin and the other young man behind the counter are so incredibly friendly and talk to you as if you're a visitor, not a paying customer, which is incredible to me given the location and sheer number of people who pass through the arcade every day. Justin was cheering on our kids on as they played games and celebrating with us when we won... and then incredibly patient when those same kids took about an hour to decide on what prizes they would choose with their tickets. I'm always a bit hesitant to visit the overly touristed, typical beach spots when we're on vacation, but we always make a point to come here when we're in the area. Other pros to the arcade include seeing that the staff are frequently out cleaning the games and machines, and a good variety of games for such a small place. I always recommend that people stop in when they go to Newport pier, so I may as well recommend here on Yelp as well!

Came in to check things out and it was really crowded!!…read more They have plenty of games and lots of games that dispense tickets to redeem prizes. The prices of the credit vary on amount and it can get quite expensive, the prizes are not worth the credit we spend but that isn't the point of the prizes. Also you get a reusable card which I think if you come often to make sure to bring it and just refill the amount to waive the new card activation fee. We didn't get to stay long to play the games we wanted since it was crowded and the game we wanted was pretty popular. Would like to try again next time and will bring our card for a refill!

We just celebrated our daughter's 10th Birthday at The Art House in Huntington Beach, and it was…read moreabsolute perfection! From the moment I reached out to Jeniece to inquire about booking a party, I had a great experience. Booking was clear and easy, and Jeniece invited me to submit the art subject my daughter wanted to do for her party. The studio is absolutely adorable with a fun, artsy, clean, chic, boho-style vibe. The front of the studio has a comfortable place for guests to sit, relax and mingle, and a play space with some building toys for the kids to occupy themselves while waiting for all guests to arrive and painting to start. When we arrived 30 min early for party set-up, Jeniece was so welcoming, accommodating, helpful and friendly. Party prep was a breeze. Since the studio is already tastefully designed, all I had to do was put up a cute backdrop, set out the plates, napkins, cupcakes, pizza and waters, and BOOM! Party done for this mom (high five!!). Jeniece set up an inviting and fun art table, with perfectly curated and perfectly supplied stations for each girl. Jeniece did a fabulous job instructing the girls with step-by-step guidance in a fun, informative, helpful and orderly manner. Like clockwork, the girls had finished their paintings (I was so impressed with how she timed out the painting to have it end right at the 1.5hr mark). We served up the pizza, sang "Happy Birthday," enjoyed cupcakes, snapped some pics, and then said our "good byes" with each girl taking home their "masterpiece." Everyone had a fantastic time. If you're a mom looking for a perfect place to have your child's next Bday or other celebration, and want to hit the "easy button" while wowing everyone, this is where you want to be! THANK YOU!!

This was the first time the kids were here. There were 19 kids with only one teacher Marlow. It…read morewas all free drawing no instructions from her. When we checked during the camp, she was on the couch on cell phone. At the end my granddaughter spent a lot of time made a beautiful bracelet for Xmas, asked Marlow to tie it, she said she could not do it cuz of her long nails. I tried it not knowing what to do, all the beads came off all over the floor! My granddaughter was in disbelief and tears in her eyes. I felt very bad, but it was pick up time no time for her to make another one. For the 5 year old to leave with broken heart was not nice at all. The 7 year old tied his own bracelet but it all came apart in the car. For $99 per kid I paid almost $200, definitely was not cheap. Why can the teacher help the younger ones tying the bracelets? The beautiful long nails maybe more useful as a receptionist or secretary. I was more than disappointed!

I took tap, jazz and ballet from wonderful teachers who are still my friends. My husband was a professional ballet dancer at the studio. At 29 years old, I'm still taking class in the advanced tap group, and my 12-year-old step-sister has started taking ballet. The ballet program is the best in Orange County, hands down. Terri and Anthony Sellars, the owners of the studio, are former professional dancers. They teach proper technique, which is evidenced by the studio's many awards and trophies from competitions, and have turned out many professional ballerinas over the years, including their son, Chris Sellars, who is a principal dancer at Ballet West. I don't know why anyone would choose any other studio besides OCDC, especially for ballet. When I have kids, they will grow up there just like my husband and I, and all of our siblings, did.

Sophie and her mother help him a lot and Danny was always very helpful with the administrative part and scheduling. We just left there because he started doing trumpet at school and got really into it and these days he is 14 and is part of the band at school and the wind assembly. We are so grateful for this place they supported my son creativity and got him very enthusiastic about playing music. Is a great place to start your kids musical path. We will be looking to starting our 4 year old musical journey there soon.

This review predominantly pertains to the decidedly unreliable and/or mediocre loose management…read morepolicy of The Music Factory. There was far too much play it by ear, did-you-get-my-email, did-you-get-my-voicemail inconsistency. The instructors were good, but I did not get an impression the organization/mgmt. behind them was really that well oiled or structured. The school accepted my money for DJ/Production type lessons; I was under the assumption the lessons would continue under one instructor or another for some time or at least indefinitely in the sense that the lessons can be renewed monthly with the school, etc. A little over a month into lessons the 1st DJ/Instructor I was working with resigns, and this individual more or less alludes to the possibility of the school discontinuing the DJ offerings in its program. An unexpected statement or loose reference from someone providing the lessons, etc. The school staff reassures me lessons will continue under another instructor. Unfortunately, the other instructor could only work remotely. I agreed to work with the new instructor remotely. The new instructor later changes his mind about having time in his schedule to meet remotely. So the school informs me via email that it cannot offer me further lessons at this time etc. I cannot recommend The Music Factory. The services and management proved to be unreliable at best. Look elsewhere until the day this business drastically improves its practices.
