My first time visiting Tokyo Central. I heard lots of good things about this spot. They offer so…read moremany options for hot foods, cold foods, ingredients and more. I am not going to lie, the minute I walked in, I was pretty overstimulated by all the big signs, posters and colors! When you walk in, you see the prepared foods that include sushi, donburi, onigiri, nigiri, rolls and hot dishes like katsu, takoyaki, musubi and more. I liked that they offered so many options. There's also a selection of seafood and produce. Everything was reasonably priced. When you walk over to the ingredients section and other aisles, you find a lot of different seasonings for furikake, noodles, chips, candies and more. I need to go back again to have an even better look at everything. The customer service was very good as well. All the employees were helpful in finding items and they were really kind at the cash as well. I also like that they offer a self checkout area too. I will be back in the near future!

When this place first opened maybe a year or so ago, I heard people say there wasn't the widest…read moreselection so I just never went. This is where I'm going to definitely tell you to never listen to anybody else's opinion and you should always try things for yourself. Because when I came here, it was beautiful. The hot foods bar may not be as big as the costa mesa location, but there's plentiful teriyaki chicken, salmon, soups, etc. And all of it is really good in my opinion. There's an infinite variety of Japanese snacks and the cashiers were so nice and kind. Even the security guard was helpful. I also just wanted to mention that the beef prices here were some of the best I had ever seen! Steaks for 7 to 8 bucks??? This place makes it possible to eat well even on a budget, and I am extremely grateful for that. I know for I fact I don't need to drive all the way to Costa Mesa anymore because this Tokyo Central is really, really great in my strong opinion. 10/10.

What a wonderful store! The real Cadbury chocolates, violet Crump, you name the brand and it's here…read moreat This origins world foods market. Service was great as I walked in I was given a salutation, and asked if I needed assistance as I browsed. They had meat pies from England. Play smells great, very friendly open atmosphere, enough for a wheelchair or mobile device to get through each market aisle. The only thing I'd like to mention is the fact that a few of the items that I would get here that I'm familiar with I can purchase a few dollars cheaper elsewhere. However, if I want to buy it all in one location, and save gas money and try something new then this is the place to be so therefore it gets five stars. The community appreciated this unique grocery store. It was really nice seeing free chocolates for the kids sign outside as well.

What a cool shop! They have so many unique goods from mostly Europe and South Africa. Prices are…read morepretty good, considering they import pretty much everything. The shop is also very well organized and their offerings range from snacks (sweet, salty, savory, mainly) to condiments, teas, coffees, sauces and spices...they even have frozen goods, some decor, and some pots. When I went, there was also a couple of discount carts. Plus, they handed out samples! I didn't recognize much, so I asked for a rundown and some recommendations, which was really helpful. I came away with some Tim Tams, Dallmayr coffee beans, Monaco espresso, Tayto chips, and some teas, cookies, and cakes to try. Service is pretty friendly, and parking is super easy in the lot.

The lavashak selection especially stood out and was such a treat to see. The service overall was good, and shopping for groceries was quick and easy. Just a heads up that the bakery and restaurant are separate, and their wait times were noticeably longer. Still, the variety and experience made it well worth the visit.

Depending on the time of day or if you come on weekdays or weekend the parking situation can be a bit chaotic. I also love catering from here when having parties.

I really wanted to like this store and gave it two chances…read more The first time, I bought two boxes of wonton noodle soup -- the same ones I used to get at Costco. I froze them, and when my son heated one up, the broth tasted and smelled like plastic. We opened another, hoping it was a fluke, but it was the same. We ended up throwing all eight bowls away. The second time, we bought a case of coconuts with the pop-top style opening. Which was new for us. After refrigerating them, we tried one -- same issue. It had a stale, plastic-like taste. We opened another a few days later, and it was no different. We planned to return them, but got busy, and now they'll likely end up in the trash too. After two separate experiences like this, I can't afford or justify coming back. Very disappointing.

I like coming here to grab a few tacos. For $5.99 you get a 6" taco that's filled with lots of protein and onions cilantro lime and salsa. A bit on the pricey side but it is quite delicious. On the weekends they have barbacoa de borrego meat only. Quick service. Fresh produce available as well. They also have meat and marinated meat as well for sale. Located in the same plaza as the new Aldi.

When I asked about the pirozhki, she answered in a rude and impatient tone, as if my question was bothering her. During checkout, she barely spoke, acted like she didn't want to help, and I had to ask for my receipt. There was no "thank you" or "goodbye." The entire interaction felt cold, dismissive, and unprofessional. I personally felt like I was being judged because of my Asian appearance, although I can't know for certain why I was treated this way. Regardless of the reason, I left feeling unwelcome and uncomfortable. Good customer service starts with basic respect, and unfortunately, I did not experience that here.

But here's the thing: Finding what you need? Good luck. The place is kind of a mess. Stuff feels randomly tossed on shelves, and good organization is nowhere to be found. Need spices? Maybe they're by the snacks. Or the drinks. Who knows! It's like a treasure hunt, but not the fun kind. I want to love this place--it's got the looks and space to be amazing--but until they sort out the clutter and actually organize their stock, it's more frustrating than convenient. Still, if you're not in a hurry and don't mind digging, you might score some cool finds. Fix the chaos!!

Staff and even just people eating here were all so friendly and kind! There were lots of snacks and smaller food options around, as well as a bigger food bar to order from. Honestly, food wise everything was so good! The chicken was nice and charred on some bits which I love the most. I like lumpia when it's crunchy, so I would've just wanted it to be a bit more, but nothing an air fryer can't fix taking it to go! It was still tasty to have. The xiu mai was also pretty good as a side! Definitely a nice Filipino spot in Lake Forest!

This has become our favorite place to go to get Mexican food…read more It is small market that has a small kitchen that sells really good Mexican food. The market has butcher/deli counter and a small amount of produce. We got the potato tacos, chicken quesadilla, and borrego tacos. They are all so good. Meat is always juicy and potatoes are cooked to perfection. Salsa is not that spicy. The favorite is borrego, as I can eat that all day You must stop in here to try the food as you will not be disappointed.
