I ended up ordering the Loaded Tamales and chose Spinach n Crema, Pork Red Chile, and ChicN Green Chile. My favorite would be the Pork Red Chile, but all of them are good. It was not dry at all and the it was perfectly filled. I had the option of mild or spicy sauce and I chose spicy and it was the perfect amount of kick and wasn't overly spicy. I will come back and try their tacos next time because they have a Taco Tuesday special.

I had to do some research to learn that "Shane", real name Chayane, is not actually a gringo - either way is cool, but it's lovely to see his recipe derives from a veganized version of his mother's. I was staying at a hotel nearby, looked up convenient locations to eat, and here I went. It was a serendipitous light bite, and ended up being my favorite thing I ate during my trip. I dropped by at night, and appreciated Shane's being open late and within a spacious lot. It's a small place with a couple of seats and interesting decor, and very friendly staff. As I had late night dinner plans, I just came here for a pregame bite, and got a loaded boat tamal. I saw a ton of people ordering tacos de pollo, so I know what to get my next visit! I ordered the chic'n green chile, which tasted like imitation chicken with a bouncy texture, like if you bunched up bean curd skin. The tomatillo within the salsa and filling was bright and subtle. The filling and exterior masa were equally moist and tasty, the textures and flavors were playful and plenty, and the loaded toppings were heavenly. The pico, cashew crema, guacamole, pickled onions, cilantro, and salsa were amongst the freshest I've had; it was as if the vegetables were hand plucked from God's divine gardens. And of course, the imitation cotija made everything come together aesthetically, and it's just a beautiful and vibrant tamal. My only complaint is that I wish they told me to order more. I already want to plan my next trip down so I can try a few other flavors and items.

When I went for 20 banh khot, it was around a 20 minute wait for maybe a 2-3 more parties came it was an hour plus wait for them. The food was very filling, I was worried the 20 banh khot wasn't gong to be enough but I think it can comfortably feed 2-3 people. I comes in a pizza box style take out with fish sauce, veggies and pickle carrots/daikon. The plaza itself doesn't have a lot of parking but park in the neighbor next to it. Please be patient, its a small shop with small staff !

It was Saturday afternoon and was craving some Samoan food. Saw OCI on TikTok so I decided to take…read morea drive. I ordered sosisi, fa'i, chop suey, palosami and the last 2 NZ sausage rolls. Sad to say that the NZ sausage rolls were not edible unfortunately I found that out when I got home (long Beach) and tried to eat one of the them. Rock hard and burned like it's been sitting out all day. Nervy to sell that at $4 a piece smfh. The palosami was really good but everything else had no flavor. How do you mess up sosisi? Idk if I came on a off day but I spent $80 and threw it all out. Also, the fa'i didn't even taste fresh it had this weird mafu smell. Sorry but I'll stick to Poly Grill and Poasa at least you know you're paying for quality and consistency. 2 stars for the palosami

My son who is vegan was able to have palusami. We live in Riverside and we can't wait to go back!!

Overall great experience!…read more Food - everything was cooked well. Loved the char on the prawns with our garlic noodles. The bone soup was rich and love that they refill your broth for you! Garlic wings were perfectly crispy. For the calamari ask for the green sauce instead, they were good just really tiny. Lomo saltado was my favorite. The beef was so perfectly cooked and not chewy. Great flavors! Service - our server was so nice! She was great with the kids and also very attentive. Knew exactly when to bring more broth and more lychee lemonade refills. We sat out in the enclosed patio area for first available and it was sooooo hot. Definitely need some sort of air flow in there. Parking - large busy free parking lot

https://www.reddit.com/.../does_anybody_know_whats_going.../…read more I just read some awful things about Kei Concepts especially most of the upper management are coke heads aka heavy cocaine users. A verified user name "aphmcash" from Reddit still works for Kei Concepts or used to work there is complaining about the internal work environment (labor laws, work conditions, unfair practice, abusive practices, breach of contracts especially mentioning Viet Nguyen , the CEO, co owner of Kei Concepts being a major cocaine addict. Would you want drug addicts or half the upper management staff to serve you food that may contain some sort of drug substance? This is something to think about it. After reading the reddit comments and posts, I believe the labor law authorities and other authorities should investigate this matter. I want to a protect our community and keep drugs off the streets. I dont want our kids being near drugs. I added the reddit source for your reading.
