Fantastic little place next to my house and conveniently located by several hiking trails, which…read moremakes it an ideal place to stop at after a hike. Food is plentiful and delicious. Huge selection of juices and protein shakes. Must try the spinach protein - amazing! The people that work there are all very nice and helpful. One of my go-to's!

Nothing beats an ice cold smoothie after a long hot walk! On my way home I made a quick stop at…read more Aroma Sabor Café located at a gas station. It's the perfect pitstop, you can grab a refreshing drink and food, fill up your gas tank or even get a car wash while you're there. I ordered the tropical smoothie with banana strawberry mango pineapple, coconut milk, and agave, just what I needed to cool down and recharge. It was fresh, fruity and refreshing after spending time in the sun. Service was fast and was back on the road in no time, This is a convenient place to cool off, refuel yourself with drinks, food, and take care of your car, all in one stop. I'll be keeping this in mind whenever I'm nearby.

Really enjoyed our experience at Tabu Shabu!…read more The marinated meat is definitely a must for extra flavor, and they have a great variety of homemade sauces. The whole place has a fun, modern vibe while still keeping that traditional Japanese hot pot experience. Came hungry and left SO full and happy. Would definitely come back!

Writing this review mainly to address the fact that yes this location does indeed also offer a…read morelunch special as well -- they just don't advertise it on their social media because it's not ordered often. I believe it's $16.00 for 3oz of protein (toro, brisket, or chicken???), and your own order of veggie plate, noodles, rice, and broth. It's up to you if you think the size is worth it for you to order the lunch special deal. I drink a lot of broth and am a very soup-driven diner, so I guess it's not a terrible deal, but I can see it being considered a small portion to those who eat more protein and carbs during their meals. At minimum, you can order more food if you're still hungry and the service is consistently friendly. Parking in this area can be stressful, but you'll figure it out if you're patient.

I finally made it to Juice Time in Tustin to try their viral Dubai Chocolate Fettuccine, and it was…read moreabsolutely worth the wait. I'd been seeing it all over TikTok, and I was so excited to try it that I even skipped desserts for a couple of days to save room. When I found out they were open until midnight, I almost got in my car the night before because I couldn't stop thinking about it! The guys working there were incredibly friendly and welcoming, the shop was spotless, and the whole place was cute and inviting. The Dubai Chocolate Fettuccine was rich, fresh, and the perfect balance of creamy and crunchy. It's definitely a dessert meant for two or more people... but I shamelessly ate the whole thing myself. Zero regrets. It completely lived up to the hype, and I'll definitely be back. If you've been thinking about trying it, it's absolutely worth it.

Came here after dinner because we were randomly craving dessert and honestly, this place did not…read moredisappoint. We got a crepe with pistachio, Lotus, and Nutella, and I was lowkey shocked when it came out. I thought $17 was kinda expensive at first, but once I saw it, I got it. The crepe was HUGE and literally packed with strawberries. They did not hold back at all. Every bite had strawberries in it, and the combination with the pistachio, Lotus, and Nutella was so good. We also got the fresh mango slushie. It tasted like real blended mango, which I liked, and it was really refreshing. I just wish it was a little colder because it was pretty thick, but the flavor was great. My only complaint is that I wish they had more locations because we're about 30-40 minutes away LOL JK. If we're ever back in the area and craving dessert, I'd definitely come back.

Today was there one year anniversary!…read more Been a repetitive customer for a long time, to this day I'm still surprised how amazing their cinnamon rolls and customer service are they always rotate flavors so I never get bored of their selection! I would check their ig for updates on their flavors of the week. Yes the line is long but thats how you know their flavors are worth the wait. MUST TRY THE COOKIE AND CREAM ROLL if they have it available it's delicious. People at this place give a friendly hard working vibe.

Arrived 5 minutes before opening and already such a long line but I think it's worth the wait! I…read moredidn't realize until I got to the front of the line but they provided umbrellas to provide shade from the sun. Wasn't planning on ordering their signature drink (cookie butter latte) but so glad I did. When I took the first sip, I was immediately amazed by how delicious the drink was. I am normally not a coffee person, but will definitely come back and drag my friends here for it. Cinnamon rolls were sooo yummy too. Loved how soft and gooey the rolls were even after 4 hours of purchase. Frosting wasn't too thick or sweet, which is what I prefer. My friend and I ordered: 1) Fruity Pebble 2) Classic/Original 3) Banana Pudding 4) Cookie Butter Fruity Pebble: wanted to try because seemed like a customer favorite but it did not amaze us. Seemed like it was lacking an ingredient to merge both the cinnamon and fruity pebble flavors together. Would not purchase again. Classic/Original: Can't beat a basic cinnamon roll. Classic, yummy, would order if I wasn't craving other flavors. Cookie Butter: yummier than I expected. Ingredients worked well together. When I took the first bite, similar to the drink, I was amazed. Not sure if I can finish a whole cinnamon roll of this flavor in one day, but still would reorder. Bananan Pudding: Hands down my favorite roll out of the ones tried so far. The banana didn't overpower the cinnamon too much and there were actual banana chunks inside the roll. Highly recommend trying this one!

Phenomenal ice cream!!! Everything is homemade! It's insanely delicious!…read more My favorites were the brickle and the bubble gum! The shop is so cute!!! The service was great too!

Rogers Ice Cream is conveniently located right off the freeway in a shopping center parking lot…read more They have plenty of seating inside, and the customer service is great as soon as you come in and get assistance. I got the Rocky Road, and they state that everything is homemade. Unfortunately, it had a very bland taste and not much flavor to it. I've never had a Rocky Road quite like this before. We also got the cherry Italian ice, which was good and had a nice flavor.

Ramen Hub is definitely worth checking out! The prices are pretty reasonable, and I really liked…read morethe atmosphere. It has a fun bar-like theme with neon lights and a whole wall covered in anime art, which gives the place a really cool vibe. I also appreciate that you order and pay upfront, so there's no waiting around for the check at the end. They have some decent specials as well. I had the Tonkotsu Ramen, mild, and it was exactly how I like it , rich, creamy, and flavorful. The sushi was delicious too and definitely worth trying. Overall, good food, good prices, and a fun atmosphere. I'd definitely come back!

When I saw a new ramen spot opened up near my home, I had to stop by and try it. I really wish I…read moredidn't. Probably the cheapest bowl of ramen in the area, and the price is reflected in the bowl. Watery and tasteless broth, slightly burned pork belly slices, and an unseasoned hard boiled egg. The flavorless noodles were the best part of this bowl. I had two bites and couldn't finish it. Service was very quick, probably a red flag in hindsight, and the teller/server was nice and helpful. She was very apologetic and offered me a full refund and exchanges. 10/10 customer service. No issues with anything except the sorry excuse for a bowl of ramen. I will not be coming here again, and I'll be actively warning my friends against it. Luckily it only cost me $14.

I hadn't been to Shabu Shabu Bar in a long time, so coming back felt pretty nostalgic. This was…read moreactually the first place where I was introduced to shabu shabu, and it's what started my love for this type of food. I remember it being really affordable back then, but of course prices have gone up over the years. These days, the cheapest small size is around $22-$24, which isn't shocking with inflation and higher wages. One thing that hasn't changed, though, is the tiny cup of ice cream they give you at the end of the meal, which is a nice little touch. The seating is all bar-style, which can feel a bit overwhelming if you're an introvert like me and prefer having your own space. That said, it's not uncomfortable. People mostly keep to themselves, and the servers don't bother you much either. They'll check in once in a while to see if you need anything, but they're not constantly hovering. What really stands out to me about this place is the goma sauce. When it's done right, it's seriously good--rich, nutty, and super flavorful. Honestly, it's one of the best goma sauces I've had, and it makes the whole meal that much better. Even after all this time, that sauce alone reminds me why this place left such a strong impression on me in the first place.

Love, love, love this spot! The experience here stands out from other hot pot places and I…read moreabsolutely love it. The meat is always high-quality and consistent, but my favorite part is what they do once you're done with the meat...they make your leftovers into a flavorful ramen bowl! Nothing goes to waste and it's such a fun, satisfying way to end the meal. Plus, they top it all off with a little ice cream at the end! Every visit has been nothing short of wonderful. Highly recommend!

I went here yesterday to try out some food from this location since the other location I originally…read moreintended to go to has this creepy guy who is a regular there. I walked here, and this place comforted me right away. This place has spam rice. I ordered it because I love spam. I also ordered onion rings. I told the cashier that when I got them the other day, it was so spicy that I couldn't finish it and she was very understanding. The spam rice and onion rings were cooked to perfection. I love it so much!

Was craving boba while in Old Town and stumbled across R&B. I think they scratched the itch in some…read moreaspects, but were lacking in others. R&B is located just outside Orange Circle with plenty of street parking nearby. They have a bunch of indoor seating and a cute vibe inside with a giant indoor tree that you can hang hearts on. The staff is super friendly and quick to serve. I got a Honeydew Stormy & Lychee Yakult, and both were pretty good. The honeydew tasted like a melted melona popsicle (in a good way). I also got the popcorn chicken which unfortunately was a big miss. It tasted bland and didn't have the fried herbs that I've come to know and love, so it just felt lacking. Overall, I'd come back to grab a drink here if I'm craving boba, but would skip the food. I think it's worth a visit if you're in the area and have a craving.
