My husband was especially pleased bc they assured him it was gluten free, as he has Celiac and can't get contaminated by gluten. Everyone there was very friendly. The ambience is good but very little places to sit, as it seems to be a local take-out spot. If we lived closer to our son, we'd be there weekly. LOL We very much appreciated the amazing late Sunday night dinner. Can't wait to return the next time we visit our son.

Amazing new Thai place that you have to try out. Had my eye…read moreon this place a couple weeks and made it over with my wife last night. Massive parking lot with lots of spots. The place is new and set up nicely. Not a lot of sit down spots but enough. They had a lot of take out going on while we were there. They have great packaging for take out too. We actually decided while watching the chef cook these awesome selections we would switch to dine in. We decided to share a couple options and this was perfect. First up the #1 Kaphrao over rice. We chose the ground pork option and this bowl was a flavor BOMB. SO good every bite. Sharing with my wife I have to go a little easy in the spice but ut still had a nice kick and not too much for her. #5 Pad Kee Mao and we did this one with shrimp. Wide noodles and fresh vegetables. They did not hold back on the shrimp, and they were also BIG shrimps. Grabbed a Thai tea and every thing was GREAT. We traveled from HB and HB has some great THAI options, Im excited to come back and explore more of the menu here. Friendly staff, the owner was also our chef and he was super, we really enjoyed the experience here and looking forward to coming back soon.

I am so full and happy. The broth was excellent. The noodles chef kiss and the meat was cooked and not over dry for being well done!

Consider me a fan…read more My team and I grabbed lunch at Eastborough after completing an event at a nearby business. We had worked up quite the appetite, and banh mi / bowls sounded like the perfect fix. My order included a grilled chicken banh mi (no jalapeno) with their chicken spring rolls to share with the table. This sandwich was served on a fresh baguette, with thick pieces of juicy grilled chicken layered on top. I also loved their house-made aioli, which really pulled together the entree. I love that you're able to customize the meat on each of their dishes. They offer grilled pork, chicken, tofu, shaken beef, pork belly, and cajun shrimp. The space is pretty small and can get quite packed during the busy lunch rush. Luckily there's outdoor seating scattered throughout the CAMP if you're open to fresh air.

Went to East Borough's restaurant in Culver City over 10 years ago and was sad when they closed…read more Having moved to OC, I was happy to see that they were still in business at The Camp in Costa Mesa. The space is pretty tiny, with a few tables indoors and some outdoors on the patio. I ordered their pho baguette ($15), which was bigger than I expected, with tender beef and a cup of pho broth to dip. The menu said it was spicy but I think the sriracha hoisin aioli got left off because it wasn't spicy at all (I think it would have been better with a little spice). My husband got their chicken curry soup, which comes with your choice of baguette, noodles or rice. Everyone else here was eating a bowl, so I'm guessing that's the thing to order - especially since one person remarked that it was SO much food. Next time!

I'm honestly pretty disappointed with the new location off Harbor Boulevard. Not sure if there's…read morenew management, but something definitely feels off. Right when you sit down, the cleanliness stands out and not in a good way. (lost my appetite.) We ordered the vegetable pho and vegetable fried rice, and both were underwhelming. The portioning of the vegetables just didn't make sense huge, oversized pieces (like broccoli the size of a fist and massive bok choy) that felt unbalanced with the dish. The fried rice was mostly large chunks of vegetables with barely any rice, and overall it lacked flavor. For the price about $75 it just wasn't worth it. Take my word for it or try it yourself, but overall I'd give it around a 3.2 out of 10.

Egg rolls were good Pho was alright I took it for to go and…read morethe meat was raw and when I poured the broth it still looked the same. The lady who helped me was nice although the owner who was sitting down eating seemed rude didn't greet or say thank you. I went in and she asked if I wanted beef pho I said yes filet mignon and she went straight to the back didn't give me enough time to look over the menu and order so I looked over to the back where she was at to get her attention because I wanted to order more. Owner said something to me as if I was gonna go in but I just wanted to order egg rolls. Overall I don't think i would come back.

Wok-In is a hidden, underrated gem in Costa Mesa. We were going to the OC Fair, and rather than…read moreeating junk at the fair, we chose to have dinner here first. I told the owner Bruce that we were coming in and he saved us a table in the coolest part of the restaurant, had our iced waters & out favorite limeade at our table. WOW!!! That is unexpected service!! I usually order their wonton soup because it's SO good. This time I ordered the orange chicken and it did not disappoint! The batter was light and crunchy, the flavor was so good. My boyfriend couldn't help himself and kept eating my chicken. Now I have a dilemma next time we come...do I get the orange chicken or wonton soup? We also got the egg rolls with veggies on the side. Wrapping the egg rolls in lettuce and dipping it in the nuoc cham was so refreshing on a hot day! My boyfriend orders the steamed fish with ginger on top and said it tastes like my Mom's fish. That is a huge compliment!! And the best part is that the fish was already deboned! Don't sleep on the limeade. This is not store bought, it's made from scratch. It is tart and sweet and so refreshing. This is a small, family owned business. Bruce runs the front of the restaurant while his parents work in the back. If you are craving for Vietnamese or Chinese food, check this place out. Also the prices are very reasonable. We'll be back in a couple of weeks!!

Had the pleasure of trying this place recently…read more The portions are great and the restaurant makes you feel at home, especially with Bruce, who I presume to be the owner, being so social. I wasn't sure what to order, but he took the time to ask about my flavor preferences and recommended a dish that ended up being perfect for me. That level of personalized service made a big difference. We got the Singaporean style vermicelli and the popcorn chicken. The popcorn chicken was juicy and well seasoned and the vermicelli had a fantastic unique blend of curry-like spices that I had not tried before. Between the generous portions, flavorful food, and outstanding service, this place really impressed me. Bruce made sure we had everything we needed throughout the meal. It's some of the best asian food in the Costa Mesa area and I will definitely be coming back.

Their filet mignon…read morepho is incredibly flavorful, the broth is rich and comforting, and the meat is always tender. If you go, you definitely have to order the shrimp spring rolls. They are fresh, light, and the perfect starter. I enjoy dining there because the service has always been friendly and welcoming, but it is also one of my favorite places for takeout. They are very generous with the toppings and sauces, which I really appreciate because it makes the pho just as good at home. It is consistently delicious and my go to place whenever I am craving pho.

I came in for this venue being near my work even though the best and freshest pho usually in Little Saigon; the pho is pretty good here, (many variety of pho) that's why I kept coming after a long day seeing clients; their service is good, they welcome you as soon as you enter. I like to order to go. They are usually fast too. Prices and most dishes the portions are reasonable but this fried tofu order look little small for $4.

I was in the mood for ramen, & my roommate recommended this spot. I got the Chaschu special and it…read morewas so flavorful! The meat was super tender. We also ordered the fried rice, which was okay. The garlic edamame was also really good. Service was excellent! Very attentive servers & friendly. It was a bit cold in the restaurant, but with the hot broth of the ramen it warmed me up for a bit haha. The music was a vibe inside too. I would definitely come back.

This location is actually laughable. I placed an order on DoorDash for pickup. I show up exactly at…read morethe time it should be ready and it's already been given away. The server doesn't apologize - he states it's already been picked up. How? I ask if they don't verify the DoorDash confirmation for pickup. The server Kendrick tells me they do, but scammers show up with the exact order confirmation screen and pick up orders. Honestly sounds like BS to me, considering they have pickup orders by the front door on a shelf that anyone could take. Either way, the lack of an immediate apology or questions to clarify just point to the fact that he assumed immediately I was a scammer. Okay, annoying. But whatever. I want my food. I ask to have it remade - they're still seating people and people are ordering. They're not closing anytime soon. He tells me they won't remake it. I ask why and he continues to insinuate I'm a scammer and a thief trying to pick up someone else's order. He tells me to cancel my order. I'm beyond pissed at this point because I can't even get a refund via DoorDash because it's already being prepared. So I go back and talk to him again. He continues to refuse to cancel the order or remake it. He gets on the phone with a "Peter" who he claims is the manager. It gets really fun from here. Peter listens to my story and says there's nothing they can do. He says scammers do that all the time, and every restaurant deals with it. Okay, so how has it never happened to me at ANY restaurant? And how have I NEVER heard of it happening? So Peter, after refusing to do anything for me for a while, finally says he'll talk to the server to try and cancel the order from their end. Fine. I hand the phone back to Kendrick and he walks inside. I wait 7 min and no updates. So I go inside and ask him if he's canceling the order. He says, "what do you mean?" I tell him the manager said he'd tell him to cancel the order. Kendrick says, "he was telling you to do that". More gaslighting lmfaoooooo. I tell him no, he told you to. Again, I'm pissed beyond belief at this point and again, I can't get a refund via DoorDash because it's already "being prepared". You would think saying that 3 times is enough for them to finally get it but no. I wasted 20 min driving here, and another 25 waiting for a resolution for this BS. Kendrick tells me he can't cancel the order twice. I just ignore him and wait. 3 min later he goes "I canceled it". Like... you guys are acting like I'm the scammer when you clearly are the ones trying to pull some shady stuff. I FINALLY get my refund and Kendrick says, "sorry I just work here." Brother, that's not your line. You say that when, for example, corporate has a policy that no one likes. This all stemmed from you and your team's incompetence. The lying and gaslighting is absolutely crazy. 25 min and they either could've just refunded me or remade my order. A waste of time. I'll never visit any Slurpin again - this was just pathetic. Not a single bit of sincerity or willingness to help. The manager sounded like he was tired of talking to me, and our conversation lasted 2 min (I'm not even exaggerating). If you want food, don't go here. If you want to keep your money, don't come here. However, if you want to be treated like a liar and a scammer from the second you walk in, then this place is perfect.
