I also ordered halloumi on the side, and the voluptuous and smooth texture was world class. My date (who was fabulous company I must add) ordered the banana bread, and although I was too full to try that the wafting smell of freshly baked banana was sensational to my nose buds. The only negative was chai latte wasn't brilliant. The staff were very friendly and also looked very clean and trendy so respect. I, however, do fear I will never reach the peak of scranning that first bite of the burrito ever again, and the future looks bleak. So I will have to come here everyday for the significant future. Good day- sincerely, the British baddie food review. (my first EVER 5 star review)

It was 3pm today, not busy at all. the quality of food and the services really need to keep up. Even a simple chocolate milk we ordered for kids came with the coco powder on the ice instead of mixed in the drink. Shrimp pasta was too spicy. And the restaurant app is a joke... Another location encouraged us to download the app and collect points, but this location just told us that all the great white restaurants stopped using the app.

We got the flat dumplings which i don't have a picture of, but they were really good, they had some sort of sweet red sauce on them. Typically I do not like Tteokboki, because it is too sweet, it this one is just right and we brought it home for left overs and that was good. The Jalapeño Curry Katsu was really good and if we didn't get anything else, I would just be satisfied with that to be honest. Interior was nice, they had some posters about food and overall clean. I would come back if I were in the area 5/5

Nice homey small spot. Really nice staff…read more We had the dumplings, rose teokbokki, suyuk, pork cheese katsu, bulgolgi Korean pancakes, and stone pot beef bowl thing. I really enjoyed the teobokki, pancakes, and the stone pot. The teobokki had a good amount of meat, the sauce was great, rice cakes were chewy, and just overall what'd you expect. The pancakes didn't look to appetizing but ending up tasting great, and the stone pot was flavorful and tasty! The pork cheese katsu was alright, not bad but I've had better katsu. Big portion but you couldn't really taste the cheese. Curry was alright too. I was not a fan of the dumplings or the suyuk. The dumplings I just didn't love, and the suyuk meat was dry and the sides to accompany weren't too tasty, they didn't accompany the meat well. I do want to dry the galbijim next time!

He puts his heart into the dishes, and it shows.

I think an order should be at least 4. 6/10 Korean Fried Chicken: not crispy at all. Overly sauced which made them soggy. Good sweet & spicy flavor. 7/10 Bulgolgi rice bowl: good size portion, decent amount of meat. The bulgolgi was a bit dry, but good flavor. I ended up pouring my pickle juice and dumpling dip on the bowl. 7/10 Overall rating is 7/10. The place was empty, I have a feeling they do most of their business either delivery or to go. Would I go back? Sure. Not high on my priority list, but I would like to try the spicy chicken bowl. Bonus: bowls are a good size portion for the price. Bogus: only two dumplings per order is weak. I would like to see some kind of noodle on the menu as an option for a base.

I called and they picked up the second time. It was easier to order and they told me that pick up was ready in 15 minutes. I came exactly that time, and it was packed and ready to go to my delight!!! I don't think I saw any prices so if you are curious, definitely feel free to ask when you call and make your order. The spot has been here for about five months so I'm glad to try it out. It's a big bonus that there are Filipino food to grab in the area!!! All of the dishes were delicious and was filling. The home style cooking of Filipino food warmed us up. The chicken inasal comes with dark meat (leg and thigh) and it was juicier and more flavorful than others I've tried. I paired it with the pork sisig entree and the egg was cooked perfectly. My entrée came with two slices of cucumber and two slices of tomato. The pork was mostly tender. My girlfriend got the pork belly adobo. She found it to be very flavorful, but the pork wasn't as tender as she would like. Forks were forgotten to be included, but luckily, I had some. Anyways, I am glad to have supported this business and wish them well!!! A good spot for lunch, especially on the-go.

PARKING: Lots of parking lots and street parking but I walked here…read more SEATING: No seating as it is pick up and take out only! SERVICE: When I picked up the food, the owner? seemed very nice! The food can only be called in to pick up or through the site. I made the mistake of not knowing and walked there to scan a QR code to pick up 15 minutes later. FOOD: I ordered 3 plates of food: (2) beef tapa ($19.50) and (1) pork longganisa ($16.50). At first I thought the portion size was a bit on the smaller side but after eating a plate, it was just the perfect amount. Every bite was flavorful and bursting with perfect seasoning! I wish I had ordered another side of the garlic rice because I inhaled that so quickly! I felt that the dishes were made with love and care definitely. OVERALL: This is such a great local business that I will be coming back to more often if I can. It is a bit hidden but well worth finding! Would recommend!

Much to my pleasure they had a channel which displayed extreme sports. Dirt bike riding, cliff diving, ski jumping. Made me feel cooler just watching it. Usually I prefer making my own salad dressings (Green Goddess & 1000 Island) from scratch. Yeah I am that picky. So I was surprised I liked the Brixton Bowl with the soy miso dressing. I almost asked for extra dressing, it was that good. Made me want to try making my own version. The vegetables being edamame & carrots were tenderly cooked & lightly seasoned with care. The purple cabbage was crunchy & fresh. The white rice underneath hot and soft. Enjoyed the contrast of textures. Good sized portion too. So satisfied with this entree I declined the dessert which is rare! My bf ordered The Burger & cheesecake. He said it was good. I thought they looked beautiful. To top it off our waiter looked like Bad Bunny! What an unexpected treat on a hot summer day.

Burgers are the perfect vehicle to go a different direction and Ban Ban is right on course with its offerings. This place was good. A word on the service. It was on point and pretty much what you would expect. BUT We watched them go out of their way when a customer who appeared to be Neurodivergent came in and ordered. They were awesome and that kid had such a smile on his face when his burger arrived. I would give this place 6 stars if yelp would let me. Grapow Smash: Typical smash burger with a perfectly cooked egg. The resulting gooey yolk was glorious and the bun did its best till its structural integrity failed with about 2/3rds yet. The Grapow added quite a bit of heat but the sweet potato fries helped to tamp that down. The only thing that kept this burger out of the top 5 was the pickle. It simply was blown out by the onslaught of richness and the burger needed a briney element to provide balance. We are in nitpicky range here with this. This burger slides into a tie at #8 in my rankings and is the highest ranked fusion burger so far. Sweet Potato Fries: Not on the rotation currently according to reviews (lets face it I am behind in my reviews) but perfectly fried, and helped tamp down some of the heat.

High-Quality Comfort Food & Top-Notch Service~ I recently…read morevisited Dinah's for the very first time to meet up with my cousin, two aunts, and her new baby. This location was the perfect halfway point for all of us. We arrived bright and early around 9:30 AM on a Wednesday. I had called ahead to reserve a booth, my absolute favorite kind of seating. The moment we walked in, we were greeted by a friendly hostess and immediately seated. Our server (I unfortunately forgot his name!) was fantastic. He brought out fresh coffee right away, took our breakfast orders, and was extremely kind, polite, and attentive throughout our entire meal. The menu has plenty of options, ranging from scratch-made omelettes and burritos to salads and a dedicated kids' menu. The Breakfast Plate Specials ($12-$14) Both my cousin and aunts ordered this. It came loaded with pancakes, hashbrowns, sausage, and toast--an absolute steal for the price~ Turkey Club Sandwich & Fries: I was in the mood for lunch, so I opted for the club. The fries were hot and perfectly crispy. The sandwich itself was wonderful, packed with turkey, bacon, cheese, lettuce, and tomato. My only tiny critique is that I wish it came with mayo (I'm a huge mayo fan!). However, I ordered a side of ranch which paired perfectly and really elevated the sandwich. The vibe here is incredibly laid-back, welcoming, and brightly lit. Everything--including the restrooms--was sparkling clean. They had TVs playing a local soccer game and a nice bar area where it looks like they serve up a great selection of beer and wine for happy hour. I didn't grab an alcoholic drink this time, but I already have my eye on a cranberry mimosa for my next visit! Before you leave, make sure to check out the front counter--they have a massive display of freshly baked cookies, pies, and other goodies~ For the price, the food is absolutely worth it and the service is top-notch. Thank you so much, Dinah's Comfort Kitchen--we will definitely be back when we're in the area again!
