    Long Burrito

    I #love chronic tacos, they make the best food in newps and the view of balport is in-freaking-credible. Not to mention the amazing service of the kind hearted workers, they have. They make the best long burritos with extra meat.

    By far the best chronic location in Orange County. I have been coming here for the last 20 years and the service has never waivered from perfect. Will continue to come for the great food and amazing service.

    My man and I have been coming here every Monday night for the last 5 weeks and we have nothing but amazing things to say! Hands down best potato tacos! each time we come we get potato tacos and a bean and cheese burrito. The beer battered shrimp is so juicy! Tortillas are fresh and full. Green salsa is our favorite but the cilantro crema on top of the bowlrito was fabulous. Not only is the food just super, the staff are super attentive, quick and efficient as well as friendly. They make our whole experience worth the drive as we are from LA county :))

They didn't have the lasagna on the menu anymore. I did have the penne ala vodka again and it was the highlight. The fusilli was a regular pasta - nothing special. The winter squash pizza was average, lacking in flavor, but the falafel wrap I would order again. The desserts were good (pumpkin bread was not too sweet, brownie was what you'd expect, the almond cookies were the best).

Our salmon roll came super cold and the rice paper was hard- they probably premade this and just had it sitting in the fridge. Also, warning- none of these had sauce inside the wraps. They came undressed, basically just plain ingredients wrapped in a cold tortilla and the portion was much smaller than expected. I mean, you'll feel healthy and light after eating these but don't think it's worth going out of your way to get. Came in with low expectations bc we knew Gwyneth likes her stuff HEALTHY so we kinda knew they would skimpy with seasoning or flavor, wanted to keep an open mind, but it was disappointing after seeing all the positive reviews on social media. Likely would not come back again.

I ordered the peach iced tea and verde bowl. I saw truffle fries while waiting in line, so got those as well. The drink was presented well and tasted great. It's unsweetened which was perfectly refreshing. The verde bowl was amazing. I loved all the greens and it was light but satisfying. The fries were also wonderful. I definitely could not finish them on my own and shared with my friends. My friend ordered the tropical salad and loved it too! The environment is welcoming and fun! I wish we had more time to sit and enjoy. I'd go back, but on a day I have more time to enjoy the whole experience. We had a short window for a lunch break, so ended up having to order and eat back at our meeting.

Since it's a vegetarian restaurant, I was excited to give it a try, and it definitely exceeded my expectations. We ordered three different tacos, and they were all delicious. My absolute favorite was the Beer Battered Avocado Taco. It was packed with flavor, perfectly crispy on the outside, and the creamy avocado inside made every bite amazing. If no one told me it was vegetarian, I probably wouldn't have even noticed because it was that satisfying. We also tried their house-made Fig Vanilla Iced Tea, which was so refreshing and unique. It paired perfectly with the tacos and was a great choice for a warm California afternoon. To start, we ordered the chips and guacamole, which were fresh, light, and the perfect snack while waiting for our food. Everything tasted fresh and made with quality ingredients. We sat outside under the large umbrellas, and the outdoor seating area had such a relaxing atmosphere. It almost felt like we were having a little picnic while enjoying the beautiful weather and people watching around The LAB. The service was also fantastic. Our server was incredibly friendly, welcoming, and attentive throughout our visit. Whether you're vegetarian, vegan, or just looking to try something different, this spot is definitely worth checking out!

Would def order them again. The only downside was the parking. We circled the parking lot for a while trying to find a spot before giving up and going to valet.

Just plan to give yourself some extra time if you're driving.

    Huge disappointment for a birthday dinner -- all hype, lacking basic hospitality…read more We came to Ospi to celebrate my wife's birthday with our daughters, but the experience was a letdown from start to finish. For a restaurant with this much hype, the service and execution were shockingly poor. Right off the bat, the pacing was agonizingly slow with massive gaps between staff visits. Our water glasses sat empty for most of the night. The food issues were even worse: Bolognese: My wife ordered the Bolognese, but the waitress never mentioned any dietary details or recent menu changes. As the food runner was setting the plate down in front of her, they casually mentioned that they recently changed the recipe to include pork. My wife doesn't eat pork, but because it was her birthday and she didn't want to make a scene, she basically didn't eat dinner. Filet Mignon: I ordered my filet medium-rare. It arrived completely well-done and practically inedible. I had to send it back, and the replacement didn't arrive until everyone else at the table had already finished eating. To cap off a birthday celebration, the server never even stopped by to offer dessert or ask how the night was going. I eventually had to flag someone down just to get our check. Ospi fell completely flat on service, kitchen timing, and dietary communication.

    While I have only had takeout from this restaurant, it's clearly operating on another level. Thai…read morefood is great, but there are many choices and some seem a little uninspired at times, but I think I've found my new favorite. The shrimp fried rice was a generous portion (all entrées here seem to be), and the packaged sauces are worth liberally spreading out. Fresh and cooked perfectly, the shrimp elevated the old standby. Also exceptional is the Crying Tiger beef, which is perfectly cooked medium rare, and sliced on the bias for a nice presentation, even in the to-go packaging, which is top-notch as well. The Pad Sey Ew noodles with chicken was also outstanding, and collectively, it was enough for two meals. I appreciated their ability to expedite to-go orders via the hostess stand out front in the parking lot. A busy and popular restaurant has to keep their customers coming back for more. I certainly will!

    Hanuman Thai Eatery was one of the most disappointing Thai restaurant experiences I have had…read more Social media made this place look amazing, but apparently the hype had more flavor than the food. It was expensive, the wait was long, and the portions were surprisingly small. The Crying Tiger was nearly flavorless and looked more like a one-bite appetizer than a full dish. The mango sticky rice came with extremely sour mango, while the coconut sauce seemed to have forgotten it was supposed to taste like coconut. The Tom Yum pot was so tiny that I almost expected it to come with a magnifying glass. Other Thai restaurants usually serve at least twice as much. The service did not improve the experience. After we had already been seated for about five minutes, the servers asked us to move to another table because the seating had not been managed properly. Overall, Hanuman Thai Eatery was overhyped, overpriced, and not worth the long wait. I would give it negative five stars if Yelp allowed it.
