    Kids meal
    Michelle T.

    Food is really good here! I finally got to try the restaurant, which I have heard great things about. I like the counter/quick serve style with the patio and inside seating options. I actually visited two days in a row because I enjoyed it so much! The first time I ordered a bowl and shared with my guy, the second time I got my own kid's meal and that was plenty of food. The bowl is pretty good size, I def couldn't finish one myself. The hummus is so good and the sauces/dips are delicious. They do limit you to a few of each when you get the bowl, and then you get minimal options with the kid's meal. I tried the chicken and it had a very good flavor that went well with the rice and veggies. Unlimited toppings are offered, which is great because I love the corn, grilled veggies and cucumber/tomato options. The fountain drink and tea/juice options are great - definitely higher level than most fast food places. Prices are fair for what you get.

    Always enjoy eating at cava! Ordered online and picked up. Spacious parking lot out front. Plenty of indoor and outdoor seating. Friendly workers and always a good time.

    Great Cava location! Wonderful service with ample amounts of seating! Minimal wait too! Would definitely return for a nice refreshing meal

    Alex and Robert and Levi were amazing!!! I love Cava, would recommend the braised lamb either way salad here. The best quick meal in the area. Nice and clean seating area and great service!

    A good spot for a quick meal that's better if you order in person. There a decent amount of parking nearby in the plaza. They have both indoor and outdoor seating available. I usually take the food to go and the few times that I have dined in, I found it difficult to find a table that was clean. You order cafeteria style and pay at the end of the line. I order food from here frequently because of the convenience. I enjoy being able to customize the meals so that they fit everyone's dietary needs. Every time I go in person, my order is correct, but every time that I've tried ordering online, my order has been way off with lots of ingredients either missing or in the wrong person's bowl. They use good quality ingredients and the portions are generous. The size of your bowl may vary depending on what you order/add into it. Some of the workers have been trying to offer freebies in exchange for 5 star reviews mentioning their names which was very off-putting. Regardless, I will still happily pick up meals from here.

    I'm a Soup n Fresh fan but this location felt a lot less quality than the Rancho Cucamonga…read morelocation. I went for a weekday lunch and there was no wait even though it was busy inside, so +1 for ample seating. They have raised prices a buck or two, but they do have BOGO coupons on their Facebook that I was able to make use of. The cashier seemed familiar with the offer at first, but then instructed me to do some random stuff, like to respond to the Facebook Messenger chatbot with my numeric total charge. This was not necessary; you just need to select the prompt that says "Redeem in-store." I enjoy salad so I had a good experience, but a lot of the offerings fell flat for me that day. The shredded carrot salad is usually my favorite thing to get but it tasted so weird. I don't know if the recipe was changed but it was very sour, maybe too much vinegar? My partner likes the chicken noodle soup but told me there was basically no chicken in it, and I had a similar time trying to find any slivers of egg white in what seemed like a serving tray full of mashed yolks. The pizza and garlic bread were a lot cheesier than they are at Rancho where they are more dry and cardboardy. I think most people would enjoy that but I found the taste and smell of the butyric acid to be too overpowering, personally. On the plus side, the pasta was good. I always like to add some cheese and vegan bacon bits to the spaghetti. I would also recommend getting a brownie or cornbread muffin and putting some soft serve on it to end your meal. There's lots of fun things you can do to customize your food here, which is one of the things draws me back, even if I think I'll stick to the Rancho place going forward.

    THIS REVIEW IS "ONLY" FOR THE "LEMON OLIVE" CUPCAKE…read more.. Today is my birthday and my friend stopped by before work to bring me some goodies for my birthday. She knows I love sweets and do a lot of baking myself, however, I HAVE NEVER TASTED A CUPCAKE THIS DELICIOUS........EVER!! It's truly moist, "flakey" if you could call a cupcake flakey at all, has nooks and crannies as I broke it in half (thinking I'd only eat half and save half for later)... and honestly, lemon is NOT my favorite of anything if I had to pick. So for this baker saying this lemon olive cupcake is the VERY BEST cupcake OF ALL CUPCAKES that I've ever tasted, is saying A LOT. I'm totally a cake person, so the slight glaze on it is more than enough for me! She also bought me a carrot cake cupcake. It's good, but not above and beyond to make a name in this review. There are plenty of carrot cake recipes and this one is a 7 on a scale of 1-10, IMO. ... but the lemon rates 38 on a scale of 1-10. LOL

Located in the Hmart plaza in Portola ~ between Culver Dr and Irvine Blvd, Blueberry Social takes up a decent-sized space, right smack in the middle of the plaza. It's one of those places where you walk up to the counter, order your food & go find a seat to have it delivered. Thankfully, there is plenty of indoor & outdoor seating to choose from, but depending on the time that you dine, I can see how it can get quite crowded. Service is quick & efficient and the staff was friendly ~ providing food & drink recs, since everything looked good and it's hard to decide. The menu is American comfort food w/ a modern twist. The vibe is casual and I love the aesthetically pleasing decor (esp. the cute pinkish suede couches/bench tables inside) ~ it's quite contemporary & calming. The food? Super yums! Everything was very fresh and tasty. It actually felt worth the type (which is rare lol). The portions were solid, and the presentation was definitely IG-worthy..go check out my pics & see for yourself. I've personally been here a couple of times ~ either with friends, w/ the hubs, and/or with my fam, but I always gravitate to ordering the same dish..the SoCal loko moko ($19). Everything..from the island style garlic rice, roasted mushroom onion, brown gravy, angus loco beef patty, Kona mac, and sunny side up golden yolk eggs is just perfection. I've honestly never had a loko moko before (even tho I've been to Hawaii many of times), but I'm sooo glad that THIS was my first, cuz now the bar is set and I have high standards to compare to, moving forward. I just love everything about it..so so YUMS! OMG..get it w/ the blueberry crumble latte and you will die with smile. I swear that coffee is sooo addicting. Who knew blueberry crumble would pair well with coffee, but it does and I'm hooked. 10/10 would come back for another brunch + coffee moment. RxFoodie recommend!!!

The booths have pink suede couches and so comfy and roomy! So Cal Loko Moko -- it was just okay for me, I think my tastebuds were expecting an original loco moco flavor, but the garlic fried rice was throwing it off. Still good nonetheless. Hawaiian island pancake -- liked this, sweet enough for me without the syrup. B.B tots -- very crispy which I liked, but other than that, they're just tots. They have a huge breakfast/brunch menu and they have separate lunch/dinner menu as well! They also had a lot of interesting drinks, but we didn't order any this time. It's definitely worth checking out.

It honestly felt like it was put together in a rush without much care. Because of that, I didn't enjoy it the way I normally do, which was disappointing since I usually love this sandwich. I still like Mendocino Farms overall, but based on this experience, I'd suggest being cautious at this location--maybe ask for the sauce on the side if you're ordering to go. It might be better dining in, but this visit definitely didn't live up to the standard I'm used to.
