My friends and I ordered the beef teriyaki and roll combo, an additional lobster roll, and three OKF jelly drinks (our first time trying them). Everything was delicious! The beef teriyaki combo came with cabbage salad, miso soup, macaroni salad, and rice, making it a very filling meal with generous portions. I was a little skeptical about the lobster roll at first, but after one bite, I couldn't stop eating it. I loved how it was stuffed with meat. I ended up finishing the whole thing and would definitely order it again. The OKF jelly drinks also caught my eye while browsing the fridge. I love drinks with jelly, and these did not disappoint. The peach flavor was my favorite, and now I want to stock up on them, I hope they have this at HMart! The best part? The three of us left completely stuffed, and our total was under $50. Such an amazing value for the amount and quality of food we got. The service was excellent, everyone was friendly, and they were generous with the sauces. There are plenty of comfortable booth seats, and I also noticed they offer catering, which is great to know. If you're looking for delicious food, generous portions, good service, and a place that's quick, affordable, and satisfying, I highly recommend checking this spot out. I'll definitely be back!

Looking forward to coming back and trying more items from the menu!

We came here on of a whim one day because we saw a TikTok that showed a car table and our toddler…read moreloves cars so we thought it would be a cute lil thing for him. We definitely didn't expect the food to be so great! We've been here about 4 times now and their food is consistently delicious. My order is always their Yakimechi bowl. Which is their version of fried rice with squash, carrots, shrimp, beef & chicken. They top it with cream cheese, crab, avocado, eel sauce & sesame seeds. HIGHLY recommend this dish! We've also tried some of their sushi rolls and all have been tasty. Today we tried their Masago Sinaloense which has crab inside and is topped with shrimp, spicy mayo, eel sauce, sriracha & sesame seeds. Their Culiacan Roll is one of our favorites! Besides really great fried rice and sushi, their birria is one of our favorites. My toddler absolutely loves their tacos de birria con consomé. They are not stingy with the birria either! Very filling portions. Their micheaguas are super refreshing too. Now, as far as the service and the vibe, this restaurant has to be one of the most wholesome spots in Lynwood. The restaurant is ran by a family and we met the dad on our first visit. He told us he opened the restaurant and his kids help out. Everyone we've met is super friendly, attentive, and welcoming. This helps them a lot because the wait time is veeerrrryy long...30min+ sometimes. We ordered in advance this time and when we arrived, our food was ready. I do recommend dining in the first time because they have great food presentation BUT fair warning that it will be a bit of a wait. It's worth it though. After that, call in your order and just pick up or eat there like we did. They have a great outside area with plenty of seats and shade. They also have TV's all around now (guessing bc of the World Cup?) but this was a great addition. Overall, this is a great lil hidden spot in South Gate/Lynwood area. Would absolutely recommend!

Gave Mom a few options: Japanese, Vietnamese or Italian food for lunch?…read more She went for Japanese. "I haven't had Japanese curry in awhile." Great choice, because like her, been a minute since I've had that, too! We were about 20 minutes away, so I jumped on the Yelp waitlist (just to make sure we were seated ASAP since we were hangry!) Luckily, plenty of tables open when we arrived so we were seated immediately. I got the chance to look at their menu beforehand so I had an idea what I wanted. Mom went for what her palate desired. While waiting, we noticed their "Buy a beer, sake or soju, get a secret menu item for free" sign. (Mondays to Thursdays only.) We were curious, so, why not. It's a nicely decorated restaurant, almost as if we were transported somewhere in Japan for a meal. (I've never been, but I imagine the decor is close.) Didn't notice any clutter or mess. Floors were clean. Always a plus! CORN TEMPURA: This was the secret menu that went with the beer. Honestly, I am not a fan of corn kernels, but tried it anyway. Flavor of the batter was tasty enough to overcome that corn essence, so it worked out well for me. (I'm sure corn fans would disagree.) I only took two small bites, though, because the corn flavor started coming through more than I preferred. But not bad for a freebie! SOFT SHELLED CRABS: Deep fried, a must-have whenever I see it on the menu. Made to order HOT, batter was thin enough so it doesn't overwhelm the crabs' overall flavor. This was PERFECT. It didn't need the dip, it was great as it was. Great crisp, great flavor, RECOMMENDING. SPANISH MACKEREL: Also a must-have whenever I see it on a Japanese restaurant's menu. Good salt and vinegar level with a very tiny hint of sweet. Fish was fresh. Another good starter and palate cleanser. BENTO BOX LUNCH: I chose the pork cutlet with 2 sides: calamari and shrimp with vegetable tempura and although it already came with katsu sauce, I too, asked for a side of curry sauce (for a teenee upcharge.) I was a bit overwhelmed when my box arrived since I didn't account for the soup and the salad that went with it - it was a ton of food! Salad was fresh with good amount of Japanese dressing. Miso soup was hot and seasoned perfect. Tempura shrimp (2pcs) was a bit undercooked, but not raw, still delicious. Tempura vege was perfect. Rice was warm and fluffy. They gave a generous amount of calamari that I thought they messed up and gave us a full order vs. a side. Not only is it a lot, it's delicious. Good crisp, good chew, great flavor. I loved loved LOVED my bento box! Mom also enjoyed her brewski and her pork cutlet curry. As mentioned earlier, they are generous with their servings so we had plenty of leftovers for a second meal. (I ended up sharing it with Hubbers who enjoyed it as well.) FOOD: 5. We liked everything. SERVICE: 5. Jasmine was perfect - friendly, service with a smile, she was available when needed even after it got crowded. She was efficient with her time and made sure she gave every table the attention it required and deserved. VALUE: 5. Quality and quantity. More than worth it! PARKING: Private lot shared with others. Not an issue when we came through on mid-week lunch rush. OVERALL: 5. They are popular - most of the tables were occupied by the time we left. Good for them. Hubbers liked our takeout so much and said I should take him there sometime. The answer to that, of course, is a definite: YES. Looking forward to that second visit.

UPDATE: After my experience, I looked through other recent Yelp reviews and was surprised to see…read moremultiple customers describing very similar issues with the front-of-house service. Recent reviewers have described the service as rude, unhelpful, and accompanied by a poor attitude. One reviewer described the service as "awful, horrible, rude service," while another said the woman at the front had a "terrible attitude." Another recent reviewer described the host as rude after being told to wait outside in the rain and wind, and another specifically mentioned that the hostess was not helpful when they had questions. Unfortunately, this makes my experience seem much less like an isolated incident and more like a recurring customer-service problem. My own experience involved someone at the front who was unnecessarily difficult, unwilling to help with basic questions or alternatives, and ultimately refused service when I asked to speak with management. What is even more concerning is that I subsequently tried multiple times to reach management about what happened and did not receive a return call. When several recent customers are independently describing similar experiences with front-of-house staff, I would expect management or ownership to take those complaints seriously. Based on my experience and the pattern reflected in other recent reviews, I cannot recommend this restaurant. Do yourself a favor and go somewhere that values its customers and treats them with basic courtesy and respect.

The owner, Ralph Verdugo, has created a great atmosphere, and it's clear that everyone takes pride in what they do. You can taste the care that goes into every meal. Elba and Fernando behind the bar are always friendly and provide outstanding service. My personal favorite is the fish tacos, they're fresh, flavorful, and the reason I keep coming back. The fries are also some of the best around, crispy, perfectly seasoned, and a great side with any meal. My kids love the fried shrimp and the cheeseburger, so there's something for everyone in the family. One of the things that really sets Buena Mesa apart is the entertainment. The live rock bands are the best and always put on a great show, making it a fun place to enjoy a meal, have a few drinks, and spend the evening with family and friends. If you're looking for a friendly neighborhood restaurant with amazing food, outstanding service, and top-notch live music, I highly recommend Buena Mesa. We'll definitely be back again and again!
