    Made the treck down to Fullerton from mid city on a Friday. I don't care if I have to drive far for food as long as the food is worth it. And this place was very very worth it. Since it's just a two of us I was not able to get that much items to try. We had to obviously get the short ribs, rose pasta dish and a steak tartare. The steak portion was big and I think this was worth it. It was cooked a little well but still very tender. The pasta was also very good, felt like eating the sauce from boiling crab but with cream and they had plenty of shrimp. The steak tartare was also on point I wish it came with more chips. The inside of the restaurant was a little dim but it had nice vibe. I think because everything is ordered on the iPad and the food is delivered by the robot there wasn't much human interaction

    This place is so much bigger than I thought it was. We got seated pretty quickly. There are tablets at every table to order and our server also came by to offer assistance if needed. Overall we were happy with our food. Calamari was a bit tough, but not the end of the world. Good flavor, and pleasantly surprised!

    The Korean style OC Galbi is a MUST TRY! The meat is so tender and flavorful. It's a big portion, enough for 2-3 people. We like to get it with the ssam. We also got the rose pasta with shrimp and the mushroom cream pasta with salmon. Both are really good! Though I think the OC Galbi stole the show. Cocktails here are also really good. They're big cocktails, not like the bars that charge for mostly ice. Service is good and the restaurant is big, great for groups!

    Come here regularly and they are consistently so good, great quality always! The service is always friendly and prompt and the manager Rueben I believe his name was , always attentive and checks in! We love the Galbi plate(Korean style), and miso pork belly plate, potato truffle jeon goes crazy 10/10 recommend and always get these three plates! Flavors are soo good so many good side dipping sauces, and we always add Ssam! Also kids menu is super fair priced, they loved the pasta with tomato sauce. Comes with a little juice box. Dessert wise the lava cake and churros is the only things I've tried so far both are good!!

    Heard from a friend that this place was pretty bomb so decided to try it for my bday dinner with my fam *** ORDERED Fried Calamari $18 Loved the fried calamari! Very crunchy and a perfect mix with both mayo and the marinara sauce. They fry the entire squid together and so they provide scissors for you to cut it :)) Truffle Pasta w/grilled salmon $28 (Forgot to take a picture) Very VERY creamy and thick I will say, it's better to just finish it there at the restaurant because they use A LOT of butter OC Galbi Korean $62 Comes with some banchan (sides) and a bowl of rice. It's a sweet savory cut up cow but I'm not sure if it's well worth the pricing Pescatore $19 A fairly basic seafood red sauced spaghetti Shrimp Rosè pasta $18 Brother had ordered this and said it was a bit on the watery side. I couldn't really taste the rosè in the pasta *** VIBES It's actually fairly loud in the restaurant as there is music and it's a big place. But it is a Korean family friendly place with fancy cutlery *** PEOPLE We had a reservation and were seated fairly fast and on time :) efficient and friendly staff *** OVERAL I think I liked this place but I somewhat feel that there are better places for Asian fusion with better price ranges. Don't get me wrong tho: I do think trying it once is always a good idea

    Been here plenty of times and have gotten ALMOST everything on the menu. Front of house staff are amazing from A to Z, but the back of house needs to do better QC. We got served multiple closed mussels and were told they come from a vendor who boils/steams them before they get delivered. Nevertheless, the risk of eating a mussel that's died prior to cooking is high enough for Vibrio contamination that it should be weeded out BEFORE serving to customers. One of the managers said it was safe, but my dad is immunocompromised so he skipped all the seafood we ordered. But that's quite literally the only issue we've had in the 5+ times we've visited. Highlights: OC Galbi Korean Truffle pasta w/ grilled salmon Pescatore pasta Rosé pasta La Carne pasta Fried calamari (you MUST order this every time) Jjamppong Lowlights: Skip all the risottos. Tried all 3 of them and they don't make them very well here. Also check your mussels!

    OC Galbi Korean
    Marian X.

    First visiting this place and absolutely had a great experience here. Highly recommend to make a reservation because they can be very busy especially on the weekends. Jjamppong Pasta: the pasta is chewy and well seasoned. It is not overly spicy and it comes with a good amount of seafood. Definitely recommend this if you want a different kind of pasta. OC Galbi Korean: Absolutely loved this dish. Must order and try this! The galbi is cooked just right, tender and juicy. The seasoning is on point as well. The arugula salad is a great match to the galbi, add a bit of refreshing taste to it. FYI, you can ask for more arugula salad for additional costs. I hope they're able to keep this. This is a great place of to hang out with friends. Lots of drink offered. The staff are really friendly and welcoming. The restaurant itself is modern and cozy. One suggestion is that their ordering system definitely needs some improvement. It often lags or freezes. Also, maybe consider adding an alert system because it might be difficult to get a staff's attention. Overall, highly recommended. And I would definitely come back.

    Food: We came here to celebrate one of my parents' birthdays. The food reminded me a bit of Kei Concepts restaurants, with stylish presentations and Korean-inspired influences, but with much bolder flavors. Honestly, almost every dish could dial the seasoning back just a notch and still be excellent. The Myungran (mentai) cream pasta was delicious, creamy, and rich, but wow, it was much spicier than I expected when I ordered the spicy version. Not a complaint, just something to be aware of if you're expecting a mild kick. The beef tartare was well presented and flavorful, while the OC Galbi was probably the star of the meal, tender and packed with flavor. The prosciutto grapefruit burrata salad was the only dish that didn't fully land for me. The grapefruit and dressing combination leaned a little too tangy and acidic, with what felt like slightly too much vinegar for my taste. Price: Pricing lands in the upscale-casual range. Pastas generally run about $18-25, appetizers are mostly $15-20, steaks range from roughly $35-55, and signature dishes like the OC Galbi are around $60-65. For a meal with appetizers, entrées, and drinks, expect around $40-80 ish per person depending on what you order. Considering the presentation, portions, and quality of ingredients, I thought the pricing was fair for a birthday dinner. Ambiance: The restaurant strikes a nice balance between trendy and comfortable. It feels elevated enough for birthdays, anniversaries, or date nights, but not so formal that you feel out of place. The atmosphere is warm, modern, and has that polished Korean-fusion dining vibe that encourages you to order several dishes to share. Service: Service was attentive and professional throughout our visit. Food arrived in a reasonable timeframe, staff was friendly, and the overall experience felt well coordinated, which is especially appreciated when dining for a special occasion. They also have cute server robots going around from time to time! Parking: Parking was relatively easy thanks to the plaza location and dedicated lot. Much less stressful than fighting for street parking elsewhere in Orange County.

    The food here is amazing, the quality and flavors were truly as it showed on social media. From the Mala Rose Tteokbokki that was soft, chewy and full of creamy yet umami flavor to the tender galbi with banchan pairings such as kimchi and marinated bean sprout. It is a bit different, you order on a tablet that's at each table. We would prefer for their entree price points to have a full service experience as when we used the request for staff button on the tablet there was either a bit of a wait or they did not come. Service overall was eh. The food made up for it.

    This place was so good we came back twice in one week. Came here on m birthday with a reservation and we were seated promptly. We tried the Korean style steak and the flavors were amazing. I especially love that the steak was pre cut so it made digging in right away super easy. When we came back the second time we got the American style steak and it honestly was not as good. We got the mala pasta and garlic pasta and both were good. The mala rose had a good spice to it and it was balanced well with the creamy rose. Would definitely recommend

    Catherine B.

    Food used to be much better but has declined in quality and quantity. Yet, prices remain exorbitantly high for what you're getting. Their spicy rosé pasta no longer has veggies or rice cakes in it. The Korean galbi set has definitely declined in size and meat quality, and no longer comes with the banchan it used to. I think the dippin dots was $8, but they couldn't even take the time to put it in the bowl for me. Depending on who your server is, the service ranges from mediocre to nonexistent. This place had so much potential and the food was pretty good, but I just can't justify spending my time or money at an establishment that chases profits or attempts to cut costs completely on behalf of the patrons.

    Ordered the tteokgalbi steak ($34). It was basically a thick hamburg steak (ground meat with onions inside) over a bed of mashed potatoes with sauce, topped with fried mushrooms, and served with a side of veggies. Ngl I thought I'd get thick cut steak, but this was good and juicy too! I'd prefer if the veggies were served hot like the meat. Restaurant was very clean, gives work appropriate vibes, but you can still dress casual. Waitress only comes when your food arrives or when you call for her on the table kiosk.

    Cherlene H.

    The food was exceptional here! They have one of the best calamari dishes I've ever had. We ordered the Mala rigatoni. The sauce was well balanced with just the right kick. The broccolini was topped with a delicious chili crisp. The short rib steak was cooked to perfection and each slice melted in our mouths. We are definitely coming back!

We walked in after doing a little book shopping, without a reservations. Luckily there were still tables available and we were seated in a little nook of the restaurant that was cozy and intimate. Cocktails started our evening. Husband chose the dirty martini and for me, Last Word - Botanist Gin, green Chartreuse, lime juice, and marashino garnish, up. Reminisced old memories of our trip to NYC about a decade ago while sipping our drinks. This is my definition of good times. The soup of the day was amazing. Some ground pork makes the broth and loaded with greens, onions, celery made for a great starter. Also the house salad with Italian dressing and blue cheese hit the spot. For our meal we decided on the special - Whole branzino over a bed of arugula. This is for those on a healthy no carb diet. Bring your reading glasses, to aid in fish bone removal. The shrimp scampi was classic. Topped on a bed of linguine, these gorgeous scampied shrimp was fresh as can be. We did not stop here. Be sure to save room for dessert. The coconut cake is not to be missed. The cake was so moist, the frosting was light and the coconut, amazing. Paired with decaf coffee was a great idea. Service was super friendly and quick.

    Date of visit: Sep 8, 2026…read more What a disappointing birthday dinner. I came here with high hopes of finding one of those hidden-gem, hole-in-the-wall Italian places, but unfortunately, it all ended up blowing up in my face. The biggest problem was simple: everything--from the soup to the main dishes--was way too salty. We were a party of six, and three of us ordered pasta with the garlic cream sauce: the Pescatore, Shrimp & Scallop, and Clam. The sauce wasn't thickened enough, so it was much too soupy for a pasta dish, and the taste of white wine was very prominent. The garlic cream sauce was salty too, although nowhere near as crazy salty as the Chicken Piccata, Tortellini Giovanni, and Minestrone. Chicken Piccata: Like everything else we tried, this dish was just way too salty. The lemon-butter sauce was completely overwhelmed by the capers, and eating it honestly felt like shoveling forkfuls of salt into my mouth. The only saving grace was the chicken itself, which was cooked well and had a nice golden-brown exterior. Tortellini Giovanni: Just okay. I've definitely had better. The cheese filling inside the tortellini wasn't particularly good, although the Italian sausage was pretty tasty. The more I ate, though, the saltier, heavier, and oilier the dish seemed to get. Overall, there was really nothing special about it. Minestrone: SO salty that I couldn't even finish it. I'm not sure if this is simply their recipe or if the soup had been refrigerated and reheated to the point where some of the water had evaporated, leaving the salt increasingly concentrated. It's too bad because the underlying flavor was actually there--it was just completely ruined by the amount of salt. Pizza: Just okay. The dough wasn't bad, and I actually liked that it had some chewiness to it. But for the price, I'd rather go somewhere else. I really wanted to love this place, especially since this was my birthday dinner. I wasn't expecting fancy or perfect--I was hoping for a charming little hole-in-the-wall with really good, comforting Italian food. Unfortunately, we left super disappointed.

I ordered the jumbo shrimp linguine, and the butter sauce was so good I couldn't resist dipping my bread in it. I love a restaurant that serves warm bread and soft butter!!

The sourdough bread they bring to the table was soft and really delicious. I had the Shrimp Fettuccine Alfredo, which was very good. My friends shared the Short Rib Pappardelle, which was a generous portion for two people. We didn't realize it was prepared right in front of you, so getting to watch it being made was such a special treat! The only small downside was that my friends felt the Short Rib Pappardelle needed a little more flavor. They ended up adding some salt to bring out the taste. I have to give a huge shoutout to our waiter! He overheard us saying happy birthday to our friend, and without us even asking, he brought her a complimentary dessert. Such a thoughtful gesture and definitely made the night extra special. Overall, we had a great time and really appreciated the attentive service and little touches that made our dinner memorable!

    This review is long overdue. Our #1 go to spot for call in…read moreand pick up! We absolutely love it!! The food always comes piping hot when we pick it up and is delicious as always. It's consistently good every single time, which is honestly hard to find. It's family-owned, and the service is amazing. They're just straight to the point, not trying to impress anyone, just serving great food. My type of people and my type of food. I love their cheese ravioli with pink sauce, the minestrone soup, the Italian wedding soup, and the spaghetti and meatballs with their meat sauce. it's AMAZING. And their garlic bread is an absolute must. Be warned... you'll probably knock out right after. The portions are hearty, the food is comforting, and it gives the best food coma every time.

    I happened to try Vinny's on a whim after seeing all of the stellar reviews. Unfortunately, our…read moreexperience didn't come close to matching them. This is a tough review to write because it appears to be a family-run business, but hopefully the criticism is taken constructively. From the moment we walked in, the experience felt unwelcoming. There didn't seem to be a host or anyone greeting customers. We stood there somewhat aimlessly while employees behind the counter looked over at us without really acknowledging us or explaining where to go. One particularly strange thing we noticed was customers being turned away at the door and told there would be a wait, despite several tables appearing to be open. Then, about five minutes later, another couple walked in and was seated without any issue. Maybe there was an explanation for it, but from a customer's perspective, it was confusing and came across as very inconsistent. Unfortunately, the meal didn't improve things. The food was very bland and lacked the flavor I would expect from a good Italian restaurant. The bread we received tasted stale and was noticeably burnt. For comparison, I would honestly put the overall food quality below what you would expect from Olive Garden. Table service was almost nonexistent. Getting assistance throughout the meal was difficult, and even trying to pay the bill and leave felt like a journey. What concerned me even more was seeing several other customers spoken to in a way that came across as unnecessarily rude. I really wanted to understand why this place has such strong reviews, but based on our experience, I simply can't recommend it. Better hospitality, more consistent treatment of customers, more attentive service, and improvements to the food would go a long way.

My favorite would be Squid Ink Uni and Crab Spaghetti (less salty compared to other flavors) Appetizers: salmon crudo, Calamari, Cauliflower Pizza: highly recommended seafood poke and Mala Lamb. Entree: Scallop, Short ribs and Ribeye are good options. I didn't think Branzino, Chicken or Pork Tomahawk were as special as I hope for.
