"Loved the salmon tempura roll, yam roll, and HUGE portion of salmon nigiri in two pieces. I'm hesitant to eat at sushi places in SC, but this is good!!!"
"Nigiri so good and a massive piece of fish on top, much appreciated. The other rolls were good quality and tasty, but the salmon special was too simple to be a $20 roll IMO. And there is a roll similar to the mango mania but without the cream cheese, and I liked the other one without the cream cheese better"

"We go to Akira all the time and I was stoked to see they’re finally on DoorDash! I ordered two lunch bentos. They were packed nicely and were huge portions. I noticed you couldn’t make any modifications online and needed to call them directly. When I spoke to the server about my allergy, they took it very seriously and made sure there weren’t any cucumbers in my order. Highly recommend! "

I have also had it with broccoli and spicy cauliflower and its equally as good. Everything I have ordered from Charlie Hong Kong has been wonderful!"
"The Hoisin Pork Sandwich is always great, but today, although we asked for extra daikon, it was very scarce and only one lonely jalapeño slice. Also, it was extremely juicy/watery (messy) and the bread was soggy, even though we ate it within 10 minutes of it being ready. Nonetheless, we enjoyed the crispy edges of the bread.
The chicken teriyaki rice bowl (I can't seem to get the link to populate) was really surprising...the chicken was super rubbery and dry at the same time. It reminded me of chicken in a frozen dinner. Everything else in the box was great - all the veggies and added peanuts & cilantro. I just pushed all the chicken to the side and ate the rest. I wouldn't get the chicken again.
The ginger lemonade is good, but super strong and sweet...also a very small portion for $3.75."

"good but wayyy too much lettuce"
"Taqueria Vallarta is the best Mexican restaurant in all of Santa Cruz. I grew up eating at their many locations and have always had tasty, flavorful meals.

"The subtleness of the waffle makes the Chicken & Waffles Sandwich super solid alongside my White Chocolate Mocha perfect amount of sweetness. "
"It is so hard to find a good vegan brownie, typically they are so dry but this one is amazinggggg. It's a good portion size, I actually expected smaller so I'm more than happy to eat this masterpiece. The Everything Plant-Based Sandwich is so good, the cheese is melted very well and the egg is fluffy and actually reminiscent of eggs (I developed an allergy later in life so I miss eggs sometimes) so this is a big hit for me. The coffee is so FRESH! I'm sorry to get excited but for the past couple of try's at coffee from shops I have gotten such old, burnt coffee and to have an actual amazing cup I'm sooo happy and will be ordering again in the future!"

"Loved everything we've tried so far. War Wonton Soup, Cashew Chicken, Seaweed Vegetable Soup, Beef with Broccoli / 西兰牛肉, Walnut Shrimp / 合桃虾. Love the high veggie content and the tenderness of the meat. Quantity and price are great. No wait time for pick-up, and fast delivery. Only wished the Chicken Chow Mein had more vegetables. "
"My family always enjoys the pot Pot Stickers / 窝贴 .The Egg Egg Flower Soup / 蛋花汤 and the Shrimp Fried Rice / 虾炒饭 are standard comfort food for me. The Soup needs a little soy sauce for flavor, but that's why they include it, right? The Orange Chicken / 橙鸡 has a spicier sauce than most places, which I like, but it's not for everyone. The prices add up quickly, but the flavor is excellent and you get really big portions; the small soups are a quart (ish) size, enough for the for of us as a starter."

"Expensive for what I ordered, which is why I don't order from here often, but it's SO delicious! Always packaged well and arranged nicely, and the flavors and textures and ingredients are all so fresh and flavorful! Highly recommended!!!"
"This was delicious! I added the crispy chickpeas for the crunch and flavor, as well as a side of tahini, and Omgsh it was SO GOOD! The flavors, textures, color, and presentation were all 100% on point, just as advertised on their menu. I love that it was so fresh and I love that it wasn't rice heavy. Very satisfying without sitting heavy. I will be ordering this again!"

"The driver was awesome, regarding Jia Tella's, they always have delicious food. The only thing I would like to add is that their portions are inconsistent, at least with the mango salmon. Everything else is awesome."
"The Beef and Broccoli (Large) broccoli was soggy and overcooked. The overall flavor was as decent and the beef texture was also good. If I order this again I'm hoping the broccoli is more crisp / crunchy.
The Spicy Basil Chicken was a solid dish and definitely one I'll go back to."
