The food is a small part of what I was given though, as this places service is outstanding. The owner is the sweetest lady ever, and you can tell she loves serving the people in her community. This lunch spot is in fact a STAPLE of the local area. It was very common for me coming in over the course of the month to see firefighters, postal workers, construction workers, police officers, etc. all sitting down and eating. The owner of course knew many of these people, so you know they enjoy coming in. This restaurant SERVES the community and I am not surprised at all that everyone in there enjoys the company and food. What an amazing place. Although my work has ended in Walnut, you can bet that I will be visiting next time I am out there. I hope the owner sees this and knows how much I appreciate her and her staff! I am hoping for this businesses continued success, it deserves an award or some sort of recognition. Keep on serving! -Tytan

The food is amazing, but what really stood out was the customer service. The girl behind the counter had a great personality, explained everything thoroughly, and made the entire experience enjoyable. She overheard that I don't eat pork for religious reasons and immediately offered to completely sanitize her station before preparing my sandwich. That level of thoughtfulness and respect meant a lot to me. It's rare to find a place that delivers both excellent food and exceptional service, but this spot does exactly that. Highly recommend!

It's right across the street from my office, so it's a nice excuse to get out and walk over for lunch. I usually order online and it's ready by the time I get there, which is super convenient. They have a ton of sandwich and salad options, everything I've had has been really fresh, and the price is SUPER reasonable for the quality. Way better than all the chain spots around here. They also have some great spots to sit outside and eat if you want. Definitely a place I'll be coming to as long as I'm working in the area.

I ordered a house special pho, egg rolls and Vietnamese hot coffee with condensed milk. I was expecting the pho comes out first as usually that's the case since the soup is ready made, pho noodle doesn't take long to cook. but the egg rolls actually came out first piping hot. I was also pleasantly surprised that I can taste some meat inside the egg rolls. Pho and coffee came about the same time. pho noodle was standard size with enough pho noodle (still too much for my taste). the beef slices do have some pink (raw) color when it was served. soup was flavorful enough. coffee was too sweet for my taste. I even asked for more coffee to dilute the sweetness but didn't help much. total bill was around $26+tips for 1 person.

I've driven past this place countless times but never had the chance to stop in until now. Overall, it was a pleasant surprise. I ordered the regular poke bowl, which had a generous portion size for the price, and I liked being able to customize everything. I also wasn't expecting the meal to come with a complimentary miso soup, which was a nice bonus. The staff was friendly, and the food came out quickly. The only thing to keep in mind is that the parking lot is pretty small, so I could see it filling up during busier times. Overall, it was a solid poke spot that's close by, and I'd definitely come back the next time I'm in the mood for poke.

I go to the Pada Sushi area, because they have fresh food and let's be honest decent price for good quality. I have been a longtime customer; I buy their stuff all the time, for like the last 4+ years. This time, I saw they had deal of the day, it's a fat red tag, that is a couple bucks off some of their specialty items, and I am like yes!!!! super excited. There were multiple ones, so I picked 2 plates. One had tuna and salmon, and I was like yeah, getting this. I am thinking should I get the other looks like a crunchy roll not sure or should I just stick with the usual California roll non red tag. Since the fat red tag was literally on the menu, while I was holding both red tag items, I started to peel the tag to actually see the menu because it's a specialty item, I don't know what it is. Not thinking anything of it, thinking hey I just want to know what I am buying or what it is. As soon as I start to peal the red tag, all I heard was: "SIR, SIR, SIR, why are you changing the price tags, you are changing the price tags... in the middle of the store, people looking at me like I am stealing or doing something completely wrong ." At this point and time, I know cameras are everywhere, I never switched any price tags, and the only thing I was holding in my hands were two deal of the days (both same price of 12.95) and a Caesar salad. The other option in my head was a California roll which was 7.95, so why would I even wish to pay 12.95 for an item that is 7.95. It would have been a different story if I was trying to switch the California roll price tag, but that wasn't even in my hands, and I have never done that. The thing that really got to me was she accused me of doing something she literally didn't see me do, and who ever put the tag on the sushi is negligent. 1. WHY WOULD LITERALLY PUT THE RED TAG ON THE MENU THAT COVERS WHAT YOU ARE SELLING AKA THE TYPE OF ROLL, I took pictures if need be. 2. WHY WOULD YOU ACCUSE ME OF DOING SOMETHING I DIDN"T DO. SHE WAS LIETRALLY IN THE STORE, NOT YELLING BUT LOUD ENOUGH FOR PEOPLE TO TURN AROUND AND SEE WHAT WAS GOING ON, WITHOUT ANY EVIDENCE. I FELT SO EMBRAASSED AND WRONGED. I take the plate of sushi, I told her how can you tell what this is? she starts to explain its this type of roll, it has this and this, and I tried to explain to her, guess what, your red tag is covering the roll, you work in the industry, you know it, perhaps you even made it, but me as the customer, I don't know what this is..... I was trying to figure out what it was before you accused me of switching labels, (without evidence I will add). So, now, this sucks, because of her judgement and accusation, I don't even want to buy this sushi and now I question if I should even go to the Smart and Final after the gym to get food, showing up all sweaty in gym clothes being labeled as the guy that was "switching tags" when that was never the case over customer service and their negligent act, like really you are covering the type of roll it is. I am really hoping they make this right.

From the outside, it was also hard to tell if the restaurant was even open because the inside looked so dark. I'll admit, I almost suggested leaving after seeing some less-than-great reviews on Yelp. But since my friend picked the restaurant, we decided to give it a try. Turns out, we were actually the only customers there that night! We ordered: Red Tonkatsu Ramen Miso Tonkatsu Ramen Both ramen were actually tastes okay, the broth was flavorful, although I found it a little on the oily side, so I didn't end up drinking much of the soup. Red Tonkatsu got spicy kick but not that spicy as others mentioned. One thing I noticed was that the pork wasn't the traditional Japanese chashu. Instead, they use a pan-fried pork belly, which is still as tasty. The service was attentive and friendly, and since the restaurant was so quiet, we had a very peaceful dinner and plenty of time to catch up. More like 3.5 stars but I rounded up to 4. Not bad but not the best ramen in SGV area.

We recently discovered this hidden gem…read more From the exterior, this place looks a bit lonely. We even thought it was closed. It's tucked in the corner with poor lighting so it's easy to assume that it is. We decided to give it a try after craving ramen but not wanting to make the drive out. The host is very hospitable. It's just one man running the whole place yet he manages to balance customers and take out. We were pleasantly surprised by the food. The broth is rich yet balanced. It's not overly salty or oily. The pork? Perfectly made. It's tender yet not charred to the point of being not edible. It also just has enough fat where it doesn't overpower. As for the noodles, they're cooked a bit firm which I love. It's not mushy. The chicken karaage is good too. Perfectly seasoned and fried. The sauce compliments it perfectly. We were genuinely impressed by our food and came back again to see if it's consistent, which we can report that it is. What we would love to see here is a change of aesthetics. It's just very dark inside. It's dark red clashing with black. You also have the same colored bowls and utensils. Brighter colors and minimalist decor would do this place wonders. Otherwise, I can strongly recommend trying this place.
