Don't eat here.  I mean eat their banh mi, but elsewhere.  Why?  Because you're sitting at my table and I have space issues if you smell like steamed cabbage.

Eat these all with a ridiculous amount of fresh jalapeno slices:
Chicken with egg banh mi.  Good.
BBQ pork banh mi.  Better.
Beef with lemongrass banh mi.  Best banh mi they have.

The bread rolls for the banh mi aren't overly toasted as conventional banh mi.  If you ever had a sandwich roll explode in your face as you take a bite, chances are you  eating banh mi.  The bread rolls are just the right texture and no excessive amount of breadcrumbs.

The pickled veggies in the banh mi are subtle.  I personally like it that way.  You've been warned if you don't.

Their smoothies are huge.  Don't get the large.  Their avocado one is not as sweet as the ones you get at the Vietnamese coffee shops with scantily clad waitresses.  So I've heard I mean...from a friend that knows a guy that has been there.

Yup.

Feels unnecessary to review a gas station.

But this place charges like 50 cents more than neighboring gas stations.  Only come here if you run out of gas.  Put two quarters worth of gas in the tank and go to another gas station.

Dude.  Seriously.

Their fries have crack in them.  And nicotine.  Maybe, even some ground up unicorn.  Whichever the case, I keep craving them.

Before a date, I actually squish some in my armpits and the back of my neck.  Makes the ladies go crazy.  Axe body spray is just Brad Pitt's sweat diluted in water and it doesn't really work on Asian women for some reason.

Anyways, come early.  Even with the expanded seating area outside, it'll still get crowded during the lunch rush.  Plan accordinly.

If you only had sex once a year, I'm pretty sure you'd think it be pretty awesome regardless of the actual quantity and quality.

AYCE KBBQ is a once per year activity for me.  And yes, OMFG IT WAS THE BEST THING EVER despite having to wait a ridiculous time to get seated.

Great service.  Lots of meat.  Lots of soju.  Lots of smoke in my face due to my unlucky seat.  Lots of changes to the grill to keep up the cooking quality.  Lots of banchan.  Just a lot of everything.

I need a cigarette.

Order the Banana Berry and ask to go easy on the banana and extra blueberry.  Best thing ever.

And when you say "go easy on the banana", make sure you're not standing next to that one friend that always said "That's what she said!".

Riverbend Hand Car Wash

Update - 11/27/2011
For people concerned or complaining about getting water spots on their car when arriving home or back to work, it's INEVITABLE no matter which car wash you go to.  There's no way around it no matter how spectacular a job they do.

Here's the remedy.  Get a damp microfiber cloth or two to wipe off all the water spots and/or leakage.  Do this ASAP when you get home or back to work.

Also, don't be afraid to inspect the car when they say it's ready.  Check the lining of the trunk.  Check the door jams and sills.  Check around the rear view mirrors on both sides.  If you see water and/or dirt, point it out and they'll take care of it.  This'll also reduce the amount you'll have to wipe up after you drive off.  And don't forget to tip them!

    I guess it's a good and bad sign that it was a bit crowded.  It's good to know that a lot of people seem to trust this place with their luxury cars.  Yet, it's bad to see a lot of people since it may mean more than an hour for lunch.

    I queued up in line and was quickly greeted by a sweaty employee.  I've procastinated long enough with getting a car wash so it was an easy choice: the whole shebang for $24.  It's not called that, but it really is everything minus a hand wax and detail service.

    With his face continuing to glisten, he asked which air freshener scent I wanted.  It was the same boring choices that you can get anywhere and usually smell awful.  I don't want my car smelling as if my last passenger was a stripper overdoing the apple lotion or a Hawaiian Tropic bikini girl with too much coconut oil on.  Or do I?  Hmmm.  Anyways, I opted for new car scent since it's the least intrusive.

    You know what makes for a good car wash?  Being right next to E-Z Takeout Burger (http://www.yelp.c...).  That's what.  It is weird being seen out in public with my Mistress, but thankfully there was only one soccer mom around and she was already preoccupied with four loquacious rugrats.

    After about 50 minutes, my car was finally done.  It seemed like a longer wait considering how crowded it was and how little shade and seating were provided.  I did a once over around my car and everything was wiped clean including the exhaust tip.  Nice.  I slapped a fiver in my amigo's hand and headed back to work.

    And now I share with you my tip for keeping a birdpoop-free car.  Here's what you do:

    1.  Grab a pigeon dead or alive.  Other birds aren't as effective.
    2.  Preferably in the bathroom, pull your pants AND underwear down.
    3.  Poop on the pigeon.
    4.  Affix it to your car's hood ornament or either windshield wiper.

    This lets the birds know you mean business and that you are very capable of anally reprimanding their actions.

    No need to thank me.

I took a big chance and still decided to eat here a few weeks after the grand opening and their current 1.5 star average (over 31 reviews).  

Don't know what yall are talking about.  I had a great time.  Perhaps the chaos comes in the evening and weekends?  Or maybe the previous reviews have whooped them into shape!

Menu is basic, but none of my troops had anything to complain about.Had a large party of 12 during lunch rush on a Thursday.  Got our drinks and refills in a timely manner.  Got all our entrees all together.  Had one primary server and backup when she needed help getting out orders in sync.

I'll come back so long as none of the unlucky yelpers jinx me!

I remember eating food from here.

The food was cold, in to-go containers and eaten in the car while whizzing down the 5 freeway.  I totally disrespected the food.  It was so bad.

But, how in the hell do I remember that it still tasted so friggin good?  Damn you enigmatic foods!

Tuesday night dinner special.  Fried chicken dinner.  This is why you go here...on Tuesday nights.

Any other night, like others will note, is to lounge with some cocktails in...the cocktail lounge.  Forget how cheesy the decor is and imagine how this place would be like in the 70s.  It's like a Chucky Cheese for older people.

Lance is great at what he does.  He's a fan of food, the Lakers and sweet looking cars--so much passion for what he does.  The more and more I talked to this loquacious fellow, the safer and more confident I felt in doing business with him.  It's safe to believe other reviewers because they are more or less spot on about this place.

One of the very few authorized dealers that offers 3M Crystalline series window film.  I'm not all about the overly dark windows, but I need as much heat rejection as I can get.

Finished my car in about 4 hours.  It's been a few days since and the work still looks good, but I'll update my review if anything else arises.
