"The best Thai cuisine I've had! Khao Soi was so delicious! 9/10 I highly recommend."
"We chose this restaurant for an anniversary meal and it was the best decision! You could tell this food was prepared with love. Such attention to fresh ingredients, quality meats, and flavorful sauces. We really enjoyed the beef Mao Ruk which had the perfect level of heat/spiciness, the pad Thai with chicken, black rice, and pork fried rice. Everything was delicious and I'm guessing authentic as it's unlike anything I've had before--in the best way! Highly recommend."

"This Salmon Plate *farmed is so fresh and delicious ! Great portions and my go to!"
"Kids Battered Fish was delicious, and the rice/quinoaside was perfectly prepared. I found it odd that I had to pay extra for tartar sauce (a traditional ccondiment for this dish). New England Clam Chowder Bowl was fresh and tasted good but lacked richness. Not a fan of the dressing that came with the Asian Slaw Salad. The salad itself was fresh and tasty, though."

"The Pot Roast Beef Dip is delicious and so is the Chili Crunch Ahi Tuna*!"
"Korean Ribeye Bibimbap* - aside from the meat which had a good marinade, all other ingredients seemed to be old and/or not freshly cooked. Best to get your Korean Ribeye Bibimbap* from an actual Korean place and you'd probably get it freshly made (with delicious banchan for about the same price). Even their Coca-Cola was no longer carbonated (flat; no sign of bubbles) when it arrived when the delivery time was fairly fast. Everything was packaged well though. Guess there's a reason why they are called, "Lazy Dog""

"the Chinatown (Salad) was flavorful and well-balanced, with a generous portion that easily stood out. my bowl was packed to the brim. the only downside is the lid doesn't fully close but it's not a major deal. regardless, it's so healthy and good i would order again"

"Pristine, fresh sashimi! Okane Umi's owner makes sure every slice of sashimi is at the peak of freshness before it leaves the kitchen. After being horrified by thin slivers of sticky, smelly sashimi from 7 other local places, from Torrance to San Pedro, we order ONLY from Okane Umi in Lomita for the last 5 years and at least 3 times a week. High quality plus generous portions are rare. Not here! And you get your money's worth. Salmon is my favorite. Love the octopus and yellowtail. Also, try the Galbi lunch or dinner! Yummy, tender, beautifully seasoned beef. Be sure to order the gorgeously fresh wasabi and click yes for 'condiments and utensils'."
"Really solid spot. We ordered takeout and got the steak teriyaki, spicy crab roll, and tuna sashimi. Everything was fresh and tasted great — the steak teriyaki had a lot of flavor, the spicy crab roll had a nice kick, and the tuna sashimi was super fresh. The packaging was also done really well, which made it easy to drive with and nothing moved around. Would definitely order from here again."

"I am thoroughly pleased with every thing I ordered. Potstickers are a great appetizer. A little light on filling but great. Ate them all The packaging is always so impressive. A++ on that as it includes soy Extra Soy Sauce which I thought I had to order. Cucumber Roll was perfect for me. Second time ive tried with soy paper and now actually prefer it. Can't wait til my friends who come over try the sushi rolls. See what they say. For years I've lived here and never knew. So shout out to friends, family, tourists...... give it a try."
"I ordered the Cucumber Roll with soy paper. Cut perfect bite size pieces. The Seaweed Salad was tasty if you like it (not everyone does). Potstickers were perfectly cooked. I was happy they didn't charge me for my soy sauce and wasabi. A little worried I wouldn't get utensils but I did. I ordered the Sweet Tofu Pouch Sushi [v]. Never had it before. Lightly sweet rice roll. Kids would like them. Overall I'd definitely order again."

"my second day straight ordering from this place. I appreciate that my box is always taped, and I don't mean the white transparent tape that people can just easily peel open and close. the sticker they use, is pressed flat all around so if anybody tries to open it there will be picking marks. Maybe some people don't care as much about the packaging, but I do. it gives me peace of mind when my packaging is secured. Second time straight, my donuts are all fresh, soft, and fluffy. the quality of the donuts taste great, and the price is very reasonable. ESPECIALLY, because this place is so generous!! They really hook you up! Worth every dollar on these donuts I'm telling you! I've never ordered from a place more generous than this place. this Eagle Donuts know how to make their customers and keep their customers!"
"Ran out of what I ordered( Apple Fritter Donut), but hooked it up fat!! Threw in 4 huge donuts to compensate. This Donut shop is Super Generous!! They always throw in an extra, regardless. Love this Gem!"
