Hello Kitty and Friends Cozy Corner Pop Up is happening now until November 30 at Del Amo Fashion…read moreCenter! I've loved Hello Kitty since I was a little girl, so visiting this pop-up at Del Amo Fashion Center in my hometown felt extra special. There are plenty cute photo opportunities the moment you walk in! It really feels like a kawaii corner. There was plenty of exclusive merch too (move over Trader Joe's totes - my Hello Kitty and friends tote bag is cuter ;). They also had a DIY charm station. Best of all they had a Hello Kitty meet-and-greet today. There are other meet and greets planned - Pompompurin and Chococat on November 15 and Cinnamoroll and Lovelymocha on November 29. The meet and greets are from 11am to 1pm. It was such a sweet experience and my heart is so full.

The line was super long but thank you to the awesome staff who kept things in order and people in check This pop up is super cute!! If you love Sanrio you must come and visit. My credit card isn't happy but my LO and I had so much fun. The line for character meet and greet wasn't very long as most people were in the DIY line It's at Del Amo until end of November and I think I'm going to go back to grab more stuff.

I can have his bbq right from the tray or next few days and it's still banging. Can't say the same for the other restaurants. Some are even dry straight away lol. This is the ONLY Texas-style bbq in CA that compares with the likes of Franklin's and Black's. And it hits on EVERY item on the menu, from brisket to burnt ends to pork and beef ribs. Since it's a dedicated popup, he doesn't have off days. He cooks when he's ready to cook. So come once and have the whole experience. No need to waste your time & money on other joints multiple times to try your luck. Get your Christmas cue orders in before he stops the pop ups for good! Don't say I didn't warn you

The good: I stumbled upon this place by accident because the…read morerestaurant nearby wasn't open for dine-in. I ended up loving our meal here! We got fish and chips and ceviche. There were tons of seafood options. I noticed lots of people enjoying crab. The dining is under a cover but is "outdoors". You can see the boats and marina from here. The seafood was freshly cooked. They have oysters, uni and lots of fish options too. You order and then wait for your number to be called. The atmosphere is super casual. The bad: There aren't a lot of tables for larger groups so you might have to sit separately. Alternatively, you could take the food to-go and picnic at the beach. The interesting: My friend didn't enjoy his lobster roll much but perhaps it depends on the style of lobster roll you get. The interesting: They have a lot of beer options.

We stopped by Ethan's Belly Boink for dinner one evening, right as they were about to close, but…read morethey warmly welcomed us anyway. We ordered the sisig and the lechon, and both were outstanding, but the lechon truly blew us away. It had the most flavorful, juicy meat and the crispiest, most perfectly seasoned skin we've ever had in the US. It genuinely felt like a taste of home. The service was just as wonderful. Kristel was incredibly friendly and attentive, and we even got to meet the owner, Zaldy, who treated us like family. He even surprised our son with ice cream which was such a sweet and thoughtful gesture. The restaurant itself is clean, cozy, and has a welcoming vibe. We loved that they have karaoke too and we ended up singing along and had a great time. Ethan's Belly Boink is a true hidden gem. We'll definitely be back soon

I was looking forward to trying out Ethan's Belly Boink. Upon arrival I could sense a positive…read morelively vibe. I noticed they were having a birthday party which was awesome. The karaoke and food reminded me of my family gatherings. I'm half Filipino and my Filipino side of the family always knew how to throw a good party. Where there was Filipinos there was always karaoke and great food. So I was excited. I already knew there would be no seating so I was okay with taking it to go. The second I walked up to the register to order I could sense an unfriendly vibe from the lady at the counter. I'm not sure if she was just having a rough day or what, but it was definitely negative energy. I ordered the sisig bangus combo with white rice. Waited for about 10-15 mins which I didn't mind because like I said the karaoke vibes and seeing people at the party happy made me happy. When my food was ready she bagged my food up and held it out to me like here you go you can go now. I grabbed the bag and asked for "patis". She looked at me and said "I put soy sauce in there already." I repeated myself and asked for patis. Then she asked another lady and the other lady said they were out of patis. Which is kind of hard to believe. Knowing that Patis is huge when cooking and eating Filipino food. Okay fine they're out. So then I asked if I can have vinegar for my rice and sisig. She looked like she didn't want to even give me vinegar. Eventually she reached back and grabbed me a vinegar. There was so many sauces pre packed near the register. What was wrong with giving me some vinegar? After she gave me the vinegar I said "salamat" which means thank you. She just stared at me. Not even a "you're welcome." It's sad because I know any other day I would like this place. I just don't understand how you can let some people run the register knowing they have horrible customer service. Maybe she was having a rough day, but still you should treat your customers like you want them to return. On a side note the food is awesome. If I decide on coming back I hope I don't have to deal with that again.

We've been coming to King's Hawaiian for years, and I usually pick up my son's birthday cake here because the cakes are always delicious and the bakery has such a fun, welcoming atmosphere. When we came in, Noah greeted us right away with a cheerful "Aloha, welcome!" and was very friendly throughout our visit. My granddaughter thought his McLovin name tag was hilarious. He also offered us sprinkles for the cake and even offered to help carry her bag out to the car, which was very thoughtful. Noah also did the writing on our cake, and I was so impressed with how nice his handwriting was. I'm attaching a picture because it came out so beautifully! It was all the little things about the service that made me want to leave this review. Everyone was welcoming and helpful, and we had another great experience at King's Hawaiian. We will definitely keep coming back!

I'm a fan of King's Hawaiian bread as most locals in Hawaii are so I came here just to order from the bakery. This is a super busy restaurant and bakery, the place was packed during Sunday brunch time. If you are from Hawaii, you will find many local flavors from back home in the bakery section : haupia, dobash, mango, chantilly, guava, lilikoi, etc. I only wanted to buy 1 or 2 pastries but after seeing the immense bakery selection I got over a dozen different pastries : malasadas, mochi donuts, banana bread, and assorted donuts. This place really reminds me of back home. The workers are all friendly, positive, and cheerful. Full on legit Aloha vibes going on here even though this is a mainland location. Next time I'm in Torrance, CA again, I will visit this place for sure. Come to King's Hawaiian Bakery & Restaurant, your tastebuds will thank you !!!

We got a large patio all to ourselves and it was great. We were able to spend ample time there and never felt like we were rushed out. Service was incredible. For appetizers - we got the sourdough bread to start. It was so fresh, warm & loved their whipped butter. We also all shared the poke nachos, salmon sushi, tuna tataki roll, and fried calamari! (Not pictured lol we devoured it). For my main, I got the miso salmon. Most of us got the miso salmon and we were all happy with it. It was paired with grilled broccolini & coconut rice.
