I've been coming to this restaurant for years now (though less frequent recently due to moving). To this day, I have never been disappointed with this place. Despite the strange hours relative to other restaurants, I do appreciate how Cafe Patio is also open later than most. Quality of the food and timing of when we get our food is always on point, not to mention that the staff make me and my friends/family feel so welcome here! If you are looking for consistently delicious and comforting Asian meals, look no further than this place!

Sweet and Sour Shrimp

Love this place. Opens late and always has seating! Drinks are a little expensive but that's to be expected. Still had a good time. Service is also great. Servers are very attentive. This time we had the: - Jajangmyeon Plate: Delicious flavor and def a go to 5/5 - Sweet and Sour Shrimp: They give you the sauce separate so you can keep the shrimp crispy, the sauce was okay 3/5 - Spicy Garlic Fried Chicken: My favorite dish here! This or the Spicy Garlic Fried Shrimp is delicious - Pork Kimchi Fried Rice: usually is really good but this time was a little too sour - Seafood Sizzling Rice Soup: simple seafood soup. Not much Sizzling Rice 4/5 One of my favorite places to go. Parking is huge too!

Cafe Patio is a beautiful hidden gem. Honestly, it doesn't even look like it belongs in the area. It's like a spaceship ripped this restaurant off of some beachfront and relocated it next to downtown Fullerton. The food is delicious. My friends and I are crazy about the jjajangmyeon. It's the best jjajangmyeon I've ever had. Most other things are good too. The chewiness of the noodles are perfect and addicting. Tangsuyuk is good too. I also liked the honey walnut shrimp and the omurice. The drinks are pretty good and very affordable considering prices for alcohol nowadays. You can get an individual soju cocktail for less than $10. I do have one thing to complain about. I came here once close to midnight on a Saturday on a bar crawl to enjoy some soju cocktails. When we tried to order soju cocktails, the staff told us that "we can't make them because the lady who makes the soju cocktail went home." ...Isn't that insane? You're telling me in your entire restaurant only 1 lady knows how to make soju cocktails? Not "sorry, the kitchen is closed." Not "sorry, we're out of ingredients." It was "sorry, the only person who knows how to make them went home." That's ludicrous! It's not like I asked for a Beef Wellington. Even drunk college students can throw together a soju cocktail. But that was a one time thing. Just really stuck with me because it was so ridiculous that I couldn't forget and I needed to get it off my chest. There needs to be some kind of cross training between the staff. Other than that, service is usually friendly and attentive. Food is delicious. I just wouldn't count on this place as a drinking spot for late night.

Steam pork

Food: 4/5 Black bean noodles, korean chicken wings, military stew and pork with veggies were all delicious! The black bean noodles with requested spicy was top. The chicken wings were a nice portion and seasoned well. The ice cold beer was great! Service: 5/5 Staff is great, very quick and helpful. Everyone seems really nice. Ambience: 4/5 overall nice decor, its a korean bar but overall nice feel. There's also patio seating as well that can accommodate larger parties. Can't go wrong with either. Definitely looking forward to returning!

jjajangmyeon and spicy garlic shrimp

Cafe Patio is a shining hidden gem. I had jjajangmyeon there, and I loved it! They give generous servings, so what's not to like about it? There is also so much variety in the menu. I need to come back and try all the options. I shared spicy garlic shrimp with my family and it tasted awesome. It wasn't too busy around 6pm. The service was very kind, and welcomed us from the patio. Cafe Patio just became my new go-to for Korean Chinese and I will definitely be coming back.

Pork Belly Kimchi Nacho / 삼겹살 김치 나죠
Cherry N.

My third time coming here and I've enjoyed it every time! Happy hour is Sunday - Thursday from 5-7pm. My group and I got the kimchi pork belly nachos which is a must have! The kimchi pork belly fried rice and bulgogi fries were delicious as well! The service was fast and the staff were very friendly as well.

Orange Chicken / 오렌지 치킨, Chicken Chow Mein / 차우면, Chili Oil Wontons  / 고추기름 완탕
Rosario M.

I've been coming here for almost 2 years & let me tell you, I would say without a doubt it is the most consistent place in quality, service and taste. Ive tried a good majority of the menu & everything is delicious. The spicy seafood noodle soup is so tasty and satisfying for the cold weather. The service is also impeccable. They don't miss a beat. The food is always good. It's a calm, more relaxed comforting restaurant. I would say this is my favorite restaurant. I simply love it here & I will keep coming until the end of time. :)

Kelvin is the man! Give him a raise and also make sure to ask him to take a shot with you because he's down! As someone who used to be a server it was always an honor drinking with customers and it also builds connections with the crew. It wasn't too busy on a Saturday night around 8pm. Everyone was really nice and attentive. One Hispanic lady took our order but forgot to put it in but Kelvin came to save the day after. I'm sure she was busy and we were talking to her too so she got distracted haha. Food came out really fast though. - 1/2 and 1/2 noodles were great. 4/5 - Salt and Pepper Chicken Wings were decent but not the best I've had. 3/5 - Pork Belly Pork fried rice was pretty big but was standard. 4/5 Overall, we had a good time with friends. I'd say it's a pretty typical pocha type vibe. Would get a better feel for all of the food but can't beat soju Saturdays! Definitely want to try the fried chicken gizzards next time! Great location with a lot of parking.

They also have a big selection of cigars in their humidor. They are always helpful and can recommend something if you let them know what you are looking for. They can also place special orders as I will sometimes order a half case or full case of wines that I like a lot. There is usually something on sale being displayed when you walk in. They also offer a discount if you buy three or more bottles. Before Covid, I came here for many years for their weekly wine tastings. For a mere $5 to $10, they would always offer up a great selection of wines to taste. Unfortunately, they haven't had any wine tastings since Covid, but almost everything I know about wine I owe to Vendome and their many years of great tastings. I actually have a file folder that contains a two inch stack of tasting sheets that I kept which go back as far as 2010. Thanks Vikki, David (RIP), Eva, Danny, and everybody else here who is always so friendly and helpful. I always buy my lotto tickets here also. If I ever win big, we are going to have a big wine party!
