| - This place was somehow strange to me. You order at the counter, sit down at one of their nice dining tables and then they hand off your food to you. Meanwhile, there's a fast-food beverage dispenser for your sodas, waters, and tea in the corner. The LCD displays for the menu is cool.
It's like, "hey Anh, we like you and all but we're like a Roberto's that you get stuff yourself, but hey we'll deliver your food right to your table. Don't expect us to see you again to check on you." It's funny to me. It's a clean fast food restaurant, but with a "pick up your food and GTFO or here, please sit down in these nice chairs." Think Teriyaki Madness but it's small-business owned.
We ordered for two Loco mocos. What better way to cure a hangover by 3PM right?
Loco moco missed the mark. Nothing to write home about. Like if I was in Vegas and you lived in San Diego as my facebook friend, I wouldn't be all, "DUDE. You have to try out this loco moco." Super plain. Not very well-seasoned. As soon as my knife sliced into it, the yolk was hard (barely runny at all). I want to see that over-easy egg's guts all over my rice. I felt cheated! Hamburger patty was too tough, which made it chewy than it should be. Not quite flavorful.
I left feeling dissatisfied. Not hungry, just sad. Maybe I just wanted the rich heart-attack-inducing feel of a loco moco. The mac salad it came with was alright.
I like how clean this place is. Really nice tables and chairs. I like the separate water dispenser from the soda machine. A nice take-out place sort of feel. Prices were about right for what it was.
I don't really see what all the hype is about, but I think it deserves another chance.
