Flemings

i luv HH~~ we went to Fleming before the party start. Flemings HH is great~~ great price, great food, great environment. all cocktail and appetizer are $6 dollar only. i always wanna come to Fleming's HH. we ordered a lot of appetizers include bbq shrimp, raw beef, calamari, and sear tuna. too bad it's not around my area, otherwise i would come often.
Tropical Martini

Altitude Sky lounge

i went to SD again~ out of curiosity, we stop by the lounge on top of the Marriott and the view was okay~~ i like the view in Standard a lot better. we ordered the shrimp flat bread during their Happy hour for 1/2 price off. we stay there for a while, took some pictures and left. probably won't recommend it since the place is a lot small than it actually looks in the picture.

Mai Tai Bar

we were at the long beach around 2pm. there were a lot of time for us to kill, so we went to Mai Tai Bar before the firework. they got happy hour from 4pm-7pm with $4 drinks and 1/2 appetizers. since it's July 4th, we thought it's gonna be packed, but this place was not crowed at all. we ordered the fired calamari, spinach deep, skewer, and fried shrimp. i like the skewer the best. we sited inside at beginning and moved to the patio since they got entertainment outside, dancers doing hawaii dance~~
the show was great!! the live band was there all afternoon, but the dance only show up for the last 30mims~ it's a great place to chill and enjoy the music with some drinks.

Shin Sen Gumi

we came here on Tuesday for their Happy hour of $1.50 per yakitori. they only have HH on Monday & Tuesday from 6-10pm. we were there around 6:30pm, but we still waited for an hour before we got to eat... we ordered a lot of yakitori~~ and some side dishes include fried squid legs, fried cheese balls, and chicken cartilage. i also had the vanilla parfait which is just okay.... it's actually just ice cream scoops w/ some caramel on top. i miss the fruit parfait in Gaja located in Torrance!! their parfait was soooo much better!! the bill ends up to be $33 per person. i can't image if we came w/out happy hour..

California Thai Kitchen

spicy wings for $0.50 each Monday only! discover this new restaurant and gave it a try on the hot wings~~ it's a small Thai restaurant located in the chino spectrum plaza. the place was empty and there was only 1 customer there on Monday. the wings are pretty good with sweet & sour sauce. but i don't think it's worth driving. the chicken was a bit uncooked and still pink in the middle. :S

Roy's @ Garden Walk

4 ★★★★ for the ambiance and the service
4 ★★★★ for the food
$$ 30~50
i've always want to try Roy's. Roy's got happy hour for $5 each appetizer and cocktail, 4:30~ 6:30 Sun~Fri. HH is only at the bar and patio. we choose to sit at patio since the weather was really nice and the day was still bright. i got a Roy's Hawaiian Martini. it's was really strong for me. babe had a Roy’s Island Mai Tai. i was wonder if it's Long Island + Mai Tai... @@ b/c it looks like a long lsland, but taste like Mai Tai.. plus it's supper strong....
Lobster California Roll & Crunchy Golden Lobster Potstickers
Calamari / a bit of sweet orange chicken taste
Grilled Beef Tenderloin Skewers
the beef was really tender and it's served with kimchi sprout. really fusion style. it's located in the Garden Walk, a brand new plaza~ not very big and not a lot people either. but the food was great and the service was really nice. our waiter kept coming back to ask we if we need anything.

Furaibo

we came here for happy hours~ they get 50% off on their fried chicken wings on weekdays. a lot people love their chicken wings, but i wish they could include drinks in their happy hour menu as well. since it's weekday, there wasn't a lot of people. i guess they didn't promo the HH very well. we also had some other small dishes, and the portion is SMALL. i end up not fully satisfied w/ the meal at the end.

Yard House

M-F Happy hour until 6pm. decided to come here for the 1st time during HH. i ordered a onion tower b/c it looks really cool, but it didn't taste that great + it's kinda cold when we got it. i love their woodfire wings!! and the coconut shirmp looks good too! they get $6 drinks, 1/2 appetizers and 1/2 pizzas which i think it's a pretty good deal. i wish BJ or CPK have 1/2 off on their pizzas during Happy hours. yard house gets really noisy latter in the night. while i complained that their HH ends too early, the good things is we get to leave before the place gets too loud.

Banihana

Banihana has new happy hours! $5 drinks, 1/2 appetizer, M-Th. until 8pm. i feel like i go to Happy Hour every week!! eating seem like the only fun after work . I've only came here once with my co-worker for the teppan-yaki, but I've never tried their sushi. they get pretty decent Happy Hour menu with plenty to choose from. But i think RA sushi get way better sushi than Banihana. the las vegas roll here just looks funny and doesn't taste good either. if i am paying for the same price, i would choose RA sushi wayyyy over Banihana.

Islands Burger

i carved for some burger today and Island is the only place i could think of that has decent burgers. i used to eat island a lot when in SD, but never in LA. somehow i feel like it's not a LA thing since LA get a lot more option to choose from. Luckily, we came there during Happy hour, so all the appetizers is 1/2 off. their happy hour is from M-F until 7pm. we ordered the Hula Burger-Mushroom with crisp red onion and we still end up so full even when sharing.

Buffalo Wild Wings

we went to get some wings for $0.50 each! they get happy hour on Tues.Wed.Thurs. with $0.50 each wing! we get spicy garlic, Asian zing, mango habanero, and Caribbean jerk. I like the mango sauce the best, and Caribbean jerk was really spicy to me. the wings are pretty good, but it's not like I'll go back for more when i want some wings. but it's worth to try for their happy hour.

RA Sushi

We came here after work for happy hours. Mon-Sat until 7pm. too bad i forget my camera, so borrowed photo from yelp... they get 1/2 off all appetizer and sushi, $4 cocktail which i think is pretty good. we get Viva Las Vegas, Spicy Tuna roll, sesame chicken, fried squid roll, crisp tofu, short rib, dynamite, chicken teriyaki, and shrimp tempura. sushi is more of fusion style, but what's good about happy hour is that we get to try a lot of things which i enjoyed a lot.
