Been here many times but never reviewed. I came with a guest and we both had Plate lunches. I had the Shawarma meat and they had the chicken. Sides were rice and grilled vegetables and tabouli. Ever item was fresh and hot. Very tasty including all the different hot sauces and yogurt sauce. Excellent food for sure!

I don’t think the food is terrible. I’d give taste a 7/10, HOWEVER, for the price you’re paying they really skim you out on the protein. I tried the place 3 times just to make sure it wasn’t a one time thing, but for $17 they really seem to give you the bare minimum. The only way to get a stuffed wrap is by adding a bunch of free filler, but I feel like that’s already covered by the price. Wish I could give this place a higher rating, but I can’t get over the price to portion ratio.

This was my first time here but my wife’s comes here often. Very good menu selection. I had the tuna, salad and stuffing. I liked the tuna and salad. I had stuffing just to try something different but I will not order again. I’ll definitely return again.

Thank you Urban plates for dinner! I had the Mediterranean bowl today and it was delicious!! The pita chips were my favorite. Lety was an absolute pleasure in serving us tonight. Definitely coming back for more 😊

Had a really great late lunch. Service was impressive, Vivi took great care of us. We ordered a variety of food and everything exceeded our expectations. Started with Kaarage and pork belly bao, both were so good. My wife got the drunken noodles and my daughter got the power protein poke, excellent choices. I got the pork ramen, it was so delicious but I couldn’t eat it all, so I had to choose my least favorite ingredient in the ramen and that was the Brussel sprouts. They were fine in this dish, but I’m not sure why they chose to add them? I don’t know what they brought to the party. We finished it off with a couple character buns. The Pig and the Unicorn, both were delicious. Bottom line is the food is exceptional but the service makes it a must go to. They also had a very good selection of beer for an Asian noodle house.

Went on a Sunday night around 7pm Not too crowded. Choose the elevated chair section. Ramen broths superb. Recommend the chicken cutlet ramen, pot stickers and homemade bao.Vinnie server excellent, very knowledgeable and big sake collection. Tried the unfiltered strawberry sake. Chef's kiss.

Small place. There was one person seated when I arrived. It's normally a take out/pickup place, so they were maybe a tiny bit surprised when I asked to be seated. It took me a while to decide on what to order. The photos cycling through the screen on the wall helped. I ordered the minced chicken with Thai basil, no spice. And it was excellent. Just what I wanted: some meat, veggies and rice with a fried egg on top. I also got a Thai iced tea with boba. It was either 16 or 20 oz. Most Thai teas feel heavy and are too sweet. This was not overpowering but more refreshing than most. It didn't feel like a dessert. I would like to return and bring all my Asian foodie friends.

I called around 9pm and was told by the person(JACK claims to be his name. Image attached) who attended my call before even taking my order that they are closing soon. Then he asked me what I want? I said 2 orders and of tom yum soup spice level 10. Then he asked me what meat I want in my soup? I asked him what options I have? Which is a common question everyone asks while ordering. But then Kim he right away got mad and told me “YOU ARE WASTING MY TIME” can’t you look at the menu online and order? I was soo down hearing those words from him at that point. Again I politely replied him that I am driving from Fallbrook to his restaurant only so I can’t look at his menu while driving and I requested him to go over the protein options they have? He refused to provide option. Then I asked him do you have beef? He said “NO”. Then I aske do you have “MIX SEAFOOD”? He said “NO”. But even then he is not ready to explain the option. But he was in a intension to disconnect my call and told me he not gonna place my order until I reach his restaurant and do not want to waste food. I again pleaded him that I am driving please place the order for 2 Tom yum chicken soup large spice 10 and if you want I can pay now on the phone so that if I reach close to his closing time I can just pick up and I won’t be a reason to close his ledger delayed and go home late. But he refused that too. He again said he won’t place the order and waste food, and be here before closing and place order in person. After the experience over the phone I was about to turn over from my half way, but since my wife asked for the soup and that was the only restaurant open until 9.30 i proceeded. Once I reached the restaurant I asked him are you the one who was talking to me on the phone? Can’t you explain the protein option while I was driving? He again with an attitude showed me the laminated menu to see the option, and didn’t allowed me to talk further. I then placed the order for 2 large soup and told him I “Don’t want to waste time with a person who doesn’t know to respect others time”. Not sure if this business owner read this review? I was standing in front of him and waiting for my order for 10 mins for no reason and that could be avoided if he took my order over phone and that would have made both ends easier. He was showing kind of worst attitude like why I am there at his restaurant for the whole time when I was there waiting for the food. And BTW: The soup was soo bland. No sourness at all. No taste at all. I am having Tom Yum soup for years and this is not the one I expected. My bad. Wrong restaurant choice. Never ever returning back.

This was my third attempt with PhoEver over 8 years and I really wish there was a better outcome. I'll say that for service, it was friendly if not short-handed. One person working the front of restaurant, so was taking care of register and all of the tables. The best thing I've ever received from their kitchen is the French baquette roll for their Banh Mi, which I'm pretty sure they source and then neglect to cut in half when specifically promised. The accouterment is tragic, liver globs/ not spread, veg sparse and not really pickled. And they leave all of the seeds/pits in their peppers and cut them really thick so just be mindful of that. Both the chicken and pork in the Bahn mi was dry, rock hard and all fat, tendons and cartilage. As far as the pho is concerned, the regular size for $19 is a waste. As many people have mentioned in their reviews, the pho broth is bland and the chicken was dry. Unfortunately, I'm calling it at 3 attempts and won't be going back and could never recommend so sadly have to rate 1 star. Not the place to go when craving Vietnamese food. Wish Kim's was still open. :(

Consistent quality, an impressive menu, and a casual, laid back atmosphere. The menu features many well-known dishes from traditional Vietnamese cuisine. The food is well prepared and packed with flavor. Prices are reasonable. Serving sizes are huge. You can never go wrong with the Pho. I've tried it several times, and each time it definitely hits the spot. The rice dishes are delicious. It is served with Steamed Rice, and BBQ Pork, Beef, Chicken, Meatloaf, Pork Chop, Shrimp, and/or Egg, or a combination thereof, and with a light, fresh salad. It's the perfect combination of flavor and ingredients, which leaves a memorable, delightful taste on the palette. Exotic specialty dishes are also offered, like the Bún Bò Hué (Spicy Beef Noodle Soup) and the Quàng Noodle Bowl. Several sauces are available at each table and/or upon request to increase flavor or complement the taste are offered. My favorite is the fish sauce. Service has dramatically improved. In the past they made some small, innocent mistakes during their busy hours. One time the servers forgot to put in my mother's order. Another time they spilled water on our table as they were refilling our water glasses. But the servers made up the mistakes with their kindness and generosity: on both occasions they picked up the tab! That's what I call great service. The place itself is not a "Fine Dine" joint. It's great for a quickie. Not the best to impress a date or your boss. But it's perfect for a later date or if you want to casually hangout with friends and family. It's a laid-back, super casual eatery, with seating inside. No outdoor seating. Waiters take your order at the table and bring you your food. Restaurant offers take-out. Food is brought out pretty quickly (within 5 min during non-busy hours and 10 minutes during busy hours). Inside is pretty loud. Catch sports games on their 2 big flat screen TVs inside. Overall, great bang for buck. Food is good. Service is good. Pho-Ever has Noelito's seal of approval.

It's in n out! People love this place for what it is. It's not like it's gourmet food, or something amazing. It's just the best drive-thru around. And I love the shakes.

What can I say that someone doesn’t already know. Born & raised in Southern California, it’s still the best tasing burger around. Plus, it’s still very affordable, burger, fries and a drink for under $13. Great, now I’m hungry.

I am from a small town in Michigan with one little panaderia that isn’t that great, so whenever I travel, I make it a point to try different panaderia wherever I go. I am very picky about my tres leches and the tres leches here is to die for!! It is soaked with the perfect amount of leche and not soggy (I personally hate soggy tres leches). Definitely some of the best tres leches I’ve ever had!!! The pan is also good too! The conchas have good flavor. I especially loved the mini orejas! Good flavor with just enough crunch but not too hard either. If I ever come to San Diego/San Marcos area again, I will definitely be back!

The Tres Leches is the best and pan dulce is fantastic!!!! Very affordable as well. Huge selection of baked goods and various other confections.

Every dishes is unique and delicious. We traveled to here from Seattle and found this place. We ordered fried dumplings, steamed baos, crispy pork chops with noodles,cucumber and green beans salad, BBQ ribs etc. Everything is very tasty and delicious. The servers were so kind with friendly support. Overall we really enjoyed the food and entertainment here. This is a perfect place for handmade dumplings and noodles lover. Price is very reasonable. I do recommend perhaps sharing dishes, the portion sizes are pretty big. Definitely we will comeback.

Came for dinner at around 5:30pm on a Wednesday. It was a bit busy, but the servers were very attentive, ensuring that every guest was well taken care of. Food was great, and the service was even better! My server was extremely helpful in helping me decide what to get, and her recommendations were spot on! I started with the beef potstickers and they were very juicy and packed with flavor. The chicken wontons and cucumber salad are a MUST, and the milk green tea was delicious. The custard bun was a great dessert to end the meal too. Every dish I tried was well worth it! The ambiance was very nice, the restaurant is a bit small but it makes for a good service. I enjoyed watching the chefs make the dumplings through an open window, which added to the experience. The overall vibe was very chic and sophisticated, definitely on par with other high-end restaurants. I would recommend this restaurant to all my friends!!

I REALLY wanted to love this place. The decor and atmosphere are perfect. The staff and service are perfect. The food looked perfect, and was plated perfectly, but was bland and Luke warm. The fries were warm and lightly salted, not bad with ketchup. The tri-tip had a nice crust and was quite tender and a perfect medium rare, but served cold and not too flavorful, but the sauce, akin to cocktail sauce, was tasty. The Mac and cheese side was beautiful looking but mushy and luke warm with a slightly smoky flavor but otherwise bland, it could use some truffle or rosemary, perhaps? The bok choy side was warm and perfect, with a great cook and nice buttery flavor. The turkey dinner was good, the turkey nice and hot, super tender and the turkey gravy was perfect. The stuffing was very nice and a great compliment to the turkey. The garlic mashed potato was very good. The walnut brownie and crispy onion string were amazing! The service was the star of the show. I informed the hostess, it was cold, and she got me whole new plate which was much warmer. Happy camper! I hope they get some plate warmers :)

We are always looking for vegetarian and gf options. We really liked that you could build your own salad here. The salad tasted fresh. The tomato soup and fries didn't have a lot of flavor. It is a little dark inside, but it was very clean.

Dropped in for a late lunch at Sammy's in San Marcos. Had one of the best burgers of my life- the Wagyu cheeseburger, with crispy fries on the side. The wait staff was absolutely stellar and friendly. Five stars for the service, and much appreciation for Josh our server.

I always love the salads at this restaurant. Simply amazingly tasty and flavorful. Been coming to this place since they had their place over in Carlsbad. So about 15 years of amazing salads. I have never had a bad experience. The staff are always funny and personable while being professionally courteous. Jessie in particular was a delight to have as our server the birthday sundae she surprised my mom and I with was a really nice surprise. Thank you again from the both of us Jessie! I hope to have many more years of salads in the future! Oh, and since no one else was on the patio we had a bunch of birds tweeting at us from the roof!

Really good "American-style" Chinese buffet food of this type. Food is fresh, servings are huge, the people are very nice and the prices are competitive and reasonable for today's standards. That's saying a lot considering how expensive eating out is these days. I especially like their spicy fish fillets. I haven't seen them at other restaurants of this type. I only wish they were gluten-free, but you can't have everything and fortunately, I can cheat with that a bit now and then. They do have more than one gluten free option (at least from breading; I don't know about flours in the gravies) which is really nice. I also really like their pork. It's not breaded or super sweet, but it has a very nice flavor. My brother ordered the Mongolian beef off the menu and it was good and fairly priced as well. I definitely recommend this restaurant. We always get the 3-entree serving because it's clearly the best value. Singles will easily have leftovers and families can share, making it delicious and affordable.

So good! And a great price! I spent $10 something for each plate ($21 total and it is enough food to feed like 5 people!) they STACKED the plates with several scoops of each thing. And it was sooooo yummy

First time dining in and a second time trying this place. The restaurant itself is pretty spacious and seems to be usually empty. They have a good variety of dishes and specials. I am very pleased to see the lunch and dinner specials, as a lot of other take outs do not offer much more than the family sets. Food tasted great, and portions were pretty good. They mainly get busy with take-out orders.

My family and I absolutely love this place! We eat there a couple times a week! Not sure how anyone could post otherwise! The family that owns it are kind and very speedy. It's been really neat watching their children growing up and seems they love to wait tables now. They're very speedy. So, you won't be waiting long! The Mongolian beef is one of my personal favorites! The kids love the Cream cheese wontons, Chicken in foil wraps, Hot and sour soup (Which is so delish!) Chicken lo mein and of course the Orange chicken! I could go on, but I've never had anything bad from there. Ever! So thank you Gourmet Wok!!
