" Had a whimsical lunch at Gonza! The okonomiyaki was rich and satisfying, and the portion sizes were great! I appreciated the quirky outdoor vibe too, very laid-back. The interaction with the staff was wonderful—they clearly love what they do and it shows! I should have come here sooner and can’t wait to come again! " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited Gonza on a whim, and it didn’t disappoint! The onigiri was a fantastic snack to tide me over, and I also tried the signature okonomiyaki. You can taste the care that goes into the food preparation here. If only every meal could taste this authentic! I’ll definitely return. " (*Curated Review*)

" I just had the best okonomiyaki of my life at Gonza! The flavors were off the charts, and the service was top-notch. The staff were incredibly friendly, making the experience all the better.

" My partner and I stopped at Gonza during our recent trip, and it was the best decision we made! The okonomiyaki was so good, and you could really taste the locally sourced ingredients used. A cozy atmosphere with excellent service made the experience all the better. I highly recommend trying their matcha mousse for a sweet ending! " (*Curated Review*)

" Gonza Okonomiyaki came highly recommended, and I can see why! The atmosphere was relaxed, and the food made me smile. I had the vegan okonomiyaki, which was surprisingly tasty and fulfilling! The ratio of price to portion was fair. The staff are always eager to help with menu choices. I’ll definitely be coming back! " (*Curated Review*)

" The history of the Gonza Okonomiyaki food truck is quite interesting, manned by a team who truly cares about delivering authentic Japanese cuisine. I tried their donburi and was blown away by the fresh ingredients and the depth of flavor. The okonomiyaki was unlike any I’ve had before, complete with dancing bonito flakes! The ambience near the food truck was super chill, making it a great place to unwind. " (*Curated Review*)
