Next is the ownership and hospitality, they accept phone orders and are always so welcoming to their Customers :) Everything is made fresh so expect to wait a little but it wont take that long. Lastly I want to shoutout the business name and how it actually ties to their menu (which is super easy btw). They have a wide variety of sauces, all are super good you cant go wrong and if you ever want to sample one theyll let you try them so you get what you want. Also sidenote they give out free miso soup when you get a plate which is nice for the stomach after a nice big meal. Keep it up guys, please dont franchise lol!!!

Restaurant is small, clean, and strictly fast food vibe. Service is friendly. Secret Sauce is a small eatery at upland specializes in Asian style pork katsu, bento style. I order build your own set with chicken katsu that comes with a small cup of miso soup, fruits, and salad. Good variety for bento. The new sample is spicy chicken katsu. Overall, my chicken katsu is a bit dry, that's why I take out one point. Size of dish is good. As for dipping sauces, I feel there are rooms to improve.

My girlfriend and I had been wanting to try this spot ever since we saw it on TikTok. One of our…read morefavorite Hawaiian restaurants is Aloha Hawaiian Barbecue in Costa Mesa near South Coast Plaza, so we had high expectations going in. The portions here were a little smaller, but the quality was amazing. The white rice with furikake was great, and the mac salad was fresh with a slightly sweeter taste, which I loved. I got the teriyaki plate with chicken and beef teriyaki, and both were tender, juicy, flavorful, and well marinated. The short ribs had an amazing glaze, and the chicken katsu, my girlfriend's favorite, was crispy, juicy, and not overfried at all. Their customer service was amazing too. My girlfriend ran in to grab our food and realized after coming back that she forgot the katsu and teriyaki sauces. When she went back in, the girl working was kind enough to grab them and even asked if she wanted to try any other sauces. Great customer service and amazing food, perfect pair! I highly recommend checking this spot out, and we're definitely looking forward to coming back.

So good that it's dangerous. Definitely drool-worthy…read more Have had all of their plates and meals at this point (except for poke... sold out the last 3 times I was hoping to get it, sigh). Love everything they make, and their macaroni salad is definitely one of our absolute favorites. Ribs is always a go-to. Musubi is great. Like, you can't go wrong with their menu at all. We always order to-go, but they package it very well. No issue with sauces, and they do wrap things up in a way to prevent spillage. Always appreciate this! Staff has always been kind, and they know what they're doing. There can be a bit of a wait, and it may be best to try and get their early right when the open to prevent longer wait times. The food prices are what I'd expect for some well-cooked meats.

The food is really good. I usually get the chicken teriyaki bowl with rice and veggies. The food is…read morecooked really well and the service is really nice. The staff listens and makes sure everything is done right to your liking. The restaurant itself isn't the biggest, but it is nice size, and its usually clean too. The workers usually try and find time to wipe down tables and make sure things are clean. The bathroom as well. They are doing a great job over there, and I would recommend anyone to at least try the food out one time!

The sauce we received with our katsu... we can't figure out what it is. Its definitely not katsu sauce. It looks like soy sauce, it tastes a little bit like sauce you get with tempura, but not really? This is the second time they didn't give us the right sauce which completely changes what i ordered. The closest description I think i can give you is an extremely watered down teriyaki sauce. More like marinade than sauce. Did they change ownership? Something seems like it's really gone wrong here.

This USED to be one of my favorite places and I USED to go at least twice a month, sometimes more…read moreoften. Like so many places though, they took advantage of the Covid-era inflation and have raised their prices much more than warranted. My favorite was the Garlic Shrimp plate, but the price has DOUBLED in the last couple of years, and I refuse to be gouged. The cost of the other plates is now higher than the shrimp used to be too. The Hawaiian rice was tasty but always overpriced considering the little portion of meat in it. This is not chain restaurant, so I seriously doubt they are paying their staff the fast-food wage that CA mandates for fast-food workers, so I chalk it up to price gouging. Chicken, rice and macaroni prices have not doubled, and I can buy over 2 lbs of shrimp for $18 (total cost of Garlic Shrimp plate) vs the 14 shrimp on the Garlic Shrimp plate. So, they've lost a steady customer because of their greed. I'd go back if their prices were more reasonable because I used to enjoy most of the dishes I tried. After reading a few other reviews, it sounds like the owners have changed and the nice guy that used to work the front is now gone since I've been there over a yr ago. If they bothered to post a menu online, I could see if the prices are now more reasonable and I'd try it again. That's why I checked out their website today, but no luck.

I recommend Wok & Grill. It's freshly cooked food that's generously portioned and affordable…read more It's satisfying and filling. Wok & Grill sells Chinese and Hawaiian food. I ordered the Chicken Combo (Chicken Katsu & BBQ Chicken - $13.19) and Spam Musubi ($5.89). The Chicken Combo is a lot of food. The Chicken Katsu is crisp, large, and crunchy. The BBQ Chicken is thick, peppery, and moist. The rice and cabbage are fresh. Unfortunately, I did not enjoy the macaroni salad; it tasted like water mixed with leftover mayonnaise. Thankfully, the macaroni salad's lingering aftertaste can easily be ignored. Also, I enjoyed the Spam Musubi. Its appearance is underwhelming; however, the flavors and textures are fantastic. Too many other places sell rubbery, chewy seaweed; squishy, spongey rice; and overly-sweet, mushy spam. Wok & Grill avoids these errors. I arrived at Wok & Grill on a Friday (around 12:16PM). The food arrived in 13 minutes. I noticed many customers entering and exiting. Wok & Grill's ambiance is mixed. The counter looks like a gasoline station window; it's surrounded by transparent plastic windows. The staff speaks into a mini microphone to communicate; sometimes the words are muffled. The location is also warm and slightly humid. The location has a restroom and several tables to dine-in. The music is barely audible; the hum from the soda vending machine is the loudest sound. The location is also relatively clean; I had to wipe off some tiny crumbs from my seat before sitting down. However, staff appears very dedicated. The chefs are cooking nonstop, and its cashier appears passionate when welcoming new customers. I noticed how staff flamboyantly juggled a plastic to-go bag between hands before handing the item. "I can read your mind," he'd playfully explain, before quickly saying "Hola!" to a new customer. Overall, Wok & Grill is easy to recommend if you're nearby. The food is great value; the staff is passionate; and the portions are large and tasty. Wok & Grill is not a unique experience, but it's a solid choice.

Venturing out, by looks alone you can see they pack it up pretty well. Few scoops of rice, your Mac salad, and self serve sauce (if you're a sauce lover it's perfect). There are those times where you see a picture and you just know the food was good, this was absolutely one of those times. The meats were warm and tender, no rubbery texture or hard to pull. The sauce put the cherry on top, and for the price I was blown away. It has since been added as part of my regular going out list, and I'm mad I didn't try anything else sooner. The lady at the counter is so sweet and she works extremely hard, there's decent amount of seating inside but tables in the courtyard if it's a nice day out. You won't be disappointed with this Hawaiian bbq joint!

There wouldn't be a mix up because my name is pretty uncommon as it is.

She needs to work for the DMV if she wants to be an a$$hole to people. Should've recognized the initial red flag when I walked in instead of giving this place my money.
