I've had this on my list so we arrived yesterday at 1 pm and added our name on the waitlist. The queue wasn't long and got seated within 5-10 mins.

They have new items and they were buy 1 get 50% off so we got 2 orders of shrimp ebi which were delicious!! I tried the ramen and the soup was flavorful and noodles were also pretty good I would say for a ramen the dish was rich and velvety of that makes sense. I might need to go back to try the ramen dishes because I prefer that than the omurice. I think I had a better omurice but the whole presentation is still worthy to try out either way. Very filling too if you're hungry. Overall highly recommended to try if you are in the area or passing by.

I met a friend here for dinner and had a great dine-in experience. We both ordered their "Original Nagoya Mazesoba" $15.29 and got their Karaage $8.99 to share. It was my first time here and I figured the famous original dish is always good. The noodles are thick, and all of the strands had their own little bounce to them, just the way I like it! It arrives unmixed so I also enjoyed vigorously mixing it myself and seeing it all come together. I especially enjoyed popping the poached egg on top and seeing the egg oooozing, paired with the minced pork, green onions, chives, dish powder, seaweed, and garlic. They have really perfected the recipe here to make the perfect dry noodle dish! If you dine in, the servers will also bring you a scoop of rice. I didn't really understand it at first as to why, but I later finished my noodles and thought "oooohhhhhh!" FYI the rice is used to pick up the rest of the delicious sauce left on the bottom of your bowl and it makes for an extra carb-filled surprise. The perfect way to end a noodle dish by the way, with rice for more carbs, duh! My only feedback, and I was indeed warned by my friend, is that the noodles make you a little thirsty. My friend told me she thinks its their fish powder seasoning that somehow makes you just feel like you need to chug a glass of water, so just make sure to bring a little extra water with you, haha! Also, fair warning here since you made it this far to reading this long review. The seats were very loud to move around in the dining area, and we can just about hear every squeak the metal chair made when anyone moved their seat, too! Other than those things, the noodles are a life I've already been raving about Menya Hanabi to my friends and will definitely come back!

There's a good amount of chewy thick noodles underneath. Very flavorful- so much so that I recommend adding vinegar to lessen the greasy taste. Upon request, you can get a free scoop of rice to mix into the leftover sauce. I remember they used to give a full bowl but now it's just a scoop.

Ordered the vegan udon with extra wakame and vegetables. Ordering was super streamlined and on an assembly line. Moved pretty fast and I had my bowl within minutes. Lots of add-ons and sides you can grab yourself, cafeteria-style. I believe the only veggie options were the tempura. Vegan tantan udon was solid but standard, 7/10. Udon was just okay, not particularly QQ and maybe a step above just buying frozen noodles at the store. It was nice to have a veggie dish with (soy) protein in it rather than just vegetables. I also appreciated that they weren't particularly skimpy on the veggies either. Broth was decently rich and flavorful. In this economy, $13 for a filling bowl of noodle soup is a really good deal! Nothing mind-blowing, so I can't say I really understand the hype. Perhaps the Hawaiian locations are better? Seating was pretty easy even for our big group of 8.

I've been eating Marugame Udon since high school, starting with the Glendale location before they opened one in the Arcadia mall a few years ago. This location is right outside the food court near Cheesecake Factory. Parking is mall parking, which can be a little difficult on weekends and during busier hours, but the restaurant itself usually isn't too busy when I come. I've been here many times, and one of my main qualms has always been that the noodles get cold so quickly. Even now, I don't think the hot dishes are super hot by the time you're sitting down and ready to eat. However, the portions are really good for the price, and I find myself craving this when I want a quick meal that I can literally finish in less than 10 minutes. Here's what I usually get: 1. Curry Nikutama: My favorite! I love their curry udon, and this is my go-to when I come here. I also really enjoy the BK Udon when I want to switch things up. 2. Squid and Japanese Sweet Potato Tempura: My favorite tempura options! I love dipping these in the tempura sauce with some shichimi spice, both of which you can grab yourself after paying. 3. Shrimp Tempura: Bf's favorite! He always gets this when we come. Overall, I would recommend for a very casual, inexpensive dinner! It's not one of my all-time favorite meals, but it's definitely a comfort food that I keep coming back to. Good portions for the price and an easy option when I want something quick :)

The Pond is a small, artisan ice cream/soft serve place specializing in flavors prominent in the Pacific (hence the name 'The Pond'). It's a reference to the Pacific Ocean and the unique flavors from Southeast & East Asia to Hawaii and Cali! When I came for the first time, I got the Viet Coffee with a drizzle of condensed milk. In my opinion, the Viet Coffee was spot on- definitely reminded me of my childhood and when I was able to travel to Vietnam for the first time and actually try the coffee there! Other soft serve flavors they offered included Mango Green Tea, Cocobae, and Milk Tea. Upon my future return, I am definitely getting the Mango Green Tea. They change their menu every 2-4 weeks, so make sure to check their IG to see what they'll have when you try it out! Overall, I would 1000% recommend this place for anyone who grew up in the 626 and/or are familiar with the Asian flavors you may have grown up with, but never consumed in soft-serve form! read more

The Pond Ice Cream is a great shop, although it's important to note that they offer seasonal flavors. I'd recommend giving them a call to inquire about the current flavors before planning your visit. Conveniently, there's parking available at the back of the shop. My personal favorite was the black dole whip, an absolute must-try. What stands out about their ice cream is its consistently fantastic soft texture across all flavors. Additionally, they offer stamp cards, which is a nice touch for loyal customers. If you're into taking photos, you'll appreciate the various backgrounds they have available for pictures, making your visit not only delicious but also Instagram-worthy. Enjoy your ice cream adventure at The Pond! read more

The Pond Ice Cream offers a delightful treat with its consistently soft and delectable ice cream. While the ever-changing flavor lineup keeps things fresh and exciting, it can be a bit hit or miss. It's a good idea to call ahead and check the flavors of the day to ensure your favorites are available. A standout for me was the black dole whip, which was truly a unique and delicious experience.
