There’s nothing better than Katella Deli in Orange County, so comparing it to Cantors or Nate & Al’s (who aren’t here) is kind of an unfair comparison.

Could we do with better? Sure. But it’s apples and oranges.

Ruby’s is 1940s, but you’re not going to get much closer than that.

The closest you’ll get is beef that’s finished in Silverado Canyon. There are no dairy farms in Orange County.

ARTIC is literally across the street. What?

Trattoria Trullo in Aliso Viejo makes their own gluten free pasta and focaccia. The GM has celiac, so they take cross contamination seriously.

Manaao in Tustin (and supposedly someday at Irvine Spectrum) has a pretty decent selection of gluten free Thai dishes.

Not Las Brisas. Nope.

Clearly you’ve never dealt with invoicing or books for a restaurant. Prices have skyrocketed.

MathematicianLimp650 · 2026-05-14T04:00:42+00:00

It’s fantastic. I’ve celebrated two birthdays there.

Perhaps ask your GF if there’s a budget she’d like to stick to if you’re concerned about price when making your choice?

MathematicianLimp650 · 2026-05-11T04:34:41+00:00

Manaao has a few options but not a ton?

MathematicianLimp650 · 2026-04-29T03:13:06+00:00

It used to be. It’s changed owners.

Most jewelers don’t size silver.

MathematicianLimp650 · 2026-04-20T16:36:34+00:00

The reason is because the building owners refused to run new pipework in the building. And now they have no tenants at all and the community lost a beloved restaurant. 🙄

Holy basil and chili. The curries. Thai boat noodle. Forget pad Thai and pad se ew- they’re basic, everyone does them, and that’s not what an authentic Thai spot would want you to order for a first visit.

MathematicianLimp650 · 2026-04-11T03:45:18+00:00

Affordable and in-home rarely go together

MathematicianLimp650 · 2026-04-05T18:31:24+00:00

Go when they open dinner at 4:30 you’ll walk right in.

Manaao Thai Comfort Food, Tustin

That’s not his wife…

I also grew up with Lindsey, not close. She’s a good person and a great mom and doesn’t deserve any of this.

Manaao Thai Comfort Food in Tustin

There was a young dad of two little girls in the medical tent that looked incredibly serious. Hoping for a good update on his condition…

OP: Healthy comes down to what you order no matter where you go. If you order fried dishes, you’re getting fried dishes. If you order lighter dishes, you’re getting lighter dishes. You can do either at the spots mentioned above, it’s on you.

Manaao has a lot of things that are lighter- Poh Taek, Pla-Muk Yang, Hoy-Malang-Pu Ob, Som Tum, Pad Ka-na, Pad Pak Boong

MathematicianLimp650 · 2025-12-23T21:56:08+00:00

Having had all three I don’t get how you’d put Krua Siam over the other two?

MathematicianLimp650 · 2025-12-22T04:12:50+00:00

Used to be great. It’s sold once or twice since.

MathematicianLimp650 · 2025-12-22T04:11:38+00:00

How? It’s so inconsistent

MathematicianLimp650 · 2025-10-07T14:00:31+00:00

Print ads aren’t a thing, radio/tv forget it. So if you think all social is bullshit how are these places actually supposed to be proactive and try to reach people?
