The menu was very different than I remembered, yet had some enticing options. There was some pictures of seasonal offerings that were very tempting. Service at the walk up to order counter was great and food was delivered timely. The sandwiches have no sides, not even a pickle. Sides can be ordered separately and were very good, just small. The food was good, but not amazing. My sandwich for example was served on very soft bread and don't get me wrong, I love very soft bread. However, it was so soft it was not holding the sandwich together well at all. As you can imaging, this made it very messy to eat. My husbands sandwich was flavorful, but the portions were off with too much bread vs meat ratio.

You can even sub out the cheese for follow your heart vegan feta cheese which is perfect! My family really loves the Uc bahn mi and I loved the sweet chili crunch chicken sandwhich. I have one bad experience with the really good fish sandwich. It was obviously not fresh as it had dark spots in it and tasted not good. But other than that everything is top notch. The service is wonderful, very friendly and willing to help and even bring out water for the pup. They have lots of seating inside and out on the patio that is comfortable and adequate. I would give this place a 10/10.

I also like sitting in this sweetgreen and watching the cars go by. Despite the size seeming small, there's actually some great seats inside. The parking is definitely rough but that is very typical for this area. I really enjoy the healthy and fresh offerings they have and I like places with a good rewards program so if you eat there enough you can get some decent perks. I've tried a lot on their menu but my favorite continues to be the miso salmon. I don't really cook any fish at home so it's always nice to find a place that does it well. I will continue to keep eating here! I'm so glad there's nice healthy options that are good to grab for a quick lunch. I like ordering on the mobile app too and just coming in and grabbing it when I'm in a hurry. I've never had a problem having to wait for my meal, it's usually ready at the time I say I will be there! Keep up the great work at this location! Sending lots of love from a happy customer!

He was somewhat helpful, could have been a little bit more pleasant. Took my order after I told him what I wanted to eat. Being there my first time, but not the last, I got their Steak Mezze V2 bowl $17.15 which came with a lot of healthy options. Chunks of meat, fresh cucumber, fresh tomato, pickled onions, caramelized onions over white steamed rice. 1 slice of sour dough bread accompanied with hummus, and their cilantro dressing on the side. Food was good, but could have been better. The meat was a bit hard for me to chew. Bowl was big, but not enough portions for the price. Was not filled to the brim. They have a lot of foot traffic, to go orders and pick up orders. Also do catering. They have parking shared with Fed-Ex and 2 other businesses. Restaurant was very clean, gender neutral restroom, cozy patio seating and great music playing overhead.. I will definitely give this place another try and order other dishes from their healthy menu options.

I am recovering from a leg injury, and really wanted the great kale quinoa salad. Since walking is quite difficult at the moment, I decided to place a delivery order. It took a while, but the salad was finally delivered, but when I opened the package I was surprised by the look of the salad. It seemed to have a topping of bread crumbs, but upon inspection I saw that it was a small little dump of quinoa. Hmmm, usually there are lovely shavings of Parmesan, but nope. There was a smidge of Parmesan, not the usual amount. But the real failure was the missing sunflower seeds! Whaaaat???!!! I paid $27 for a bunch of kale and lettuce with a couple tbs of quinoa and a few Parmesan shavings?! I called just to see how they would handle the situation. First I was hung up on, before speaking. Then I was put through to catering though I pushed #6, the general number choice. I was then transferred to someone else (not sure which dept) and I explained about the missing sunflower seeds. After checking with the kitchen he confirmed that yep, they ran out of sunflower seeds. He said I could get $.50 refund, and he would transfer me to another number. The phone rang for several minutes but no one picked up. My painkiller turned me into a total "Karen", because I expected so much more from a favorite place. Oh, well, there are other places. Though that kale quinoa salad is really good when it works. Just don't trust their delivery.

We've been doing that for a few years now, so that should tell you something right there. Our order is fairly consistent: we each start with a mimosa that comes in a highball glass, so one is usually all we need. Next, we share an order of kimchi biscuits (you get two). So delicious! Packed full of kimchi, bacon and cheddar cheese, it's a nice combo of flavors that play well together. The interior is usually soft and warm, with a nice crunchy crust. Top that with a smatter of the cinnamon butter that it comes with...yum! Our choice of entree varies, anything from avocado toast, to their kale and seaweed salad or any of their other selections they have from their brunch/lunch menu. On this outing, my friend and I both opted for the bibimbap. I opted for the pork bulgogi while my friend got the chicken version. It comes with a generous amount of carrots, zucchini, shiitake mushrooms and bean sprouts, and is topped with a runny, sunny side up egg that serves as an excellent sauce when you mix everything together, along with the gochujang sauce. We upgraded and got it with brown rice in the hot stone bowl. Worth it! The regular bibimbap is good, but when you mix in the crunchy crust that comes from the bottom of the stone bowl, you get an additional texture that makes the dish really stand out. The flavors already come together nicely, and the crunchy bits just enhance the experience. For dessert, we like to share the "lemon pie", which is actually a scoop of lemon gelato that comes in a glass that also includes graham crackers, topped with toasted marshmallows. A nice way to end the meal. And the staff! We usually either have Justin or Ann as our server, but everyone there is super friendly and helpful. They are consistently good at checking up on you and making sure you have everything you need. Just another 5 star reason of why we keep coming back!

There's a nice little patio outside when the weather is nice to enjoy your food. We got a wrap and it was really good! The chick'n was nice and the lettuce was fresh. We ate inside and the air conditioning felt really nice in the heat. I did struggle to find a properly sized trash can to throw anything away when we were done but the staff behind the counter was happy to throw away stuff for us. I like this location and there's lots of healthy food nearby which feels really refreshing. Parking is really difficult though but this area is notorious for that. I had a good lunch here and I will probably be back soon when I am in the mood for some vegan alternative offerings.

If nothing else, I always make an effort to squeeze in at least one new restaurant in their lineup. For one, I get to sample what each restaurant considers to be their most popular menu items or exclusive dishes. Also, it's often a tasting menu that offers a little bit more. More like a foodie's bonus prize, just for participating. Yakumi looked good this time around. Probably because I'd eat sushi any day/every day, if I could. And I was able to find a quick prix fixe style sushi solution without roshambeau'ing with myself for hours, deciding on what to eat. YAKUMI BOX + THE DineLA MENU On the regular menu, the Yakima Box is $29 and no drink's included. During DineLA week, this filling lunch choice was just $25 and came with a shōchū cocktail as a refreshing bonus. It included: + Sunomono or seaweed salad + 1 piece of tuna sushi + 2 pieces each of yellowtail, salmon, and albacore topped with fried shallots (Note: It's not the fresh green scallions with ponzu sauce recipe) + A choice of 2 classic rolls like 2-piece baked crab roll, or 4-pieces of yellowtail jalapeño, spicy tuna, spicy salmon, avocado, and California roll (Note: The crab roll was buttery and tasty; the spicy tuna was standard) + My bonus drink: Mango Lychee Shochu The fish was fresh, the mango lychee cocktail was refreshing. Both were on the lighter side and pleasant for a lunchtime meal. INDOOR SEATING + OUTDOOR PATIO Sit inside or outside? To settle the debate, I did both while waiting for my lunch date to arrive. The warm, sunny patio was lovely, but there are only a few spots in the shade during certain times of the day, even with the awning drawn. Indoors, it's quaint and mirrors the koi fish artwork that graces the corner of the restaurant's exterior. It adds an authentic seafood-centric, Japanese charm to the ambiance. Service was prompt, although it wasn't a very busy time. Just across the street at Alfred Coffee, however, the second wave of a caffeine rush hour--needing their daily fix--rolled by as we paid. For me, on the other hand, the light shōchū buzz and pleasant stroll to my car was a foodie's bonus I'd come back for again.

High hopes for Yakumi. However, after a lunch visit, I was left disappointed…read more How sushi rice is served is one of the most important foundations of Japanese sushi culture. The rice served during a recent visit here was cold. Cold to the touch. I won't speculate as to why it happened and I should have mentioned something but chose not to as the fish was fine. Service was excellent. The dining area, clean and modern. I can't comment on the patio area as I didn't check it out. I liked everything about Yakumi however, I can't get past the cold rice. I'm not a fan of supermarket sushi as it's different. If you are, then you may like Yakumi. Or, don't be quiet like me and speak up. Maybe I just got cold rice because I was there pretty much right at opening. Letting it sit for a little while helped but my first impression was already set.

Sweetfin labels themselves as chef-inspired poke bowls with premium ingredients and bold flavours…read more Unfortunately, this is far from it. Having spent $93.40, the quality of the yellowfin tuna is hardly high quality and the quantity of fish was about 1/3 the amount of regular poke places. Items ordered were the Classic Tura, Superfood Bowl, Spicy Tuna Bowl, Keto Bowl, and two different BYOB burrito - all barely had any flavour...can we say bland? Also, the bowls and burritos were filled with primarily the base ingredients (rice/cauliflower rice), sweet potatoes, kale and bean sprouts (depending upon the bowl selected). These items are not only inexpensive but fills up the bowl. If you call it a poke bowl, at least 50 percent of the bowl should be filled with poke and not filler. Otherwise, it would be called a rice bowl with poke! Street parking is difficult in this Burbank location and I was greeted with a hostile attitude even though I spent nearly $100.00. Both food and service is lacklustre.
