The smash burgers have perfect lacy, crispy edges, the breakfast burritos are elite, and the seasoned fries are addictive. To top it all off, the owner, Albert, is one of the friendliest guys you’ll ever meet he greets everyone with genuine warmth and treats you like family. Incredible food and even better hospitality.

“Returned here this June for a birthday breakfast with a relative, the four of us had breakfast at a cost of $116 by the time I was out the door. Old white guys kind of place. Good service, mediocre food.
If you like old school diners, you'll love this small place. Been there for years. You can get refried beans and chips for your breakfast.“

“The Jolly Jug is one of those iconic places that can never be duplicated. The original Jolly Jug was in South El Monte in the 1930s and people came from all around to eat their famous Pastrami’s and Beef Dip sandwiches. Going into another century of their delicious food and cold beer, you can’t go wrong by making a pit stop here. In a world of hip restaurants trying to reinvent LA cuisine, the Jug is comfort food, done right. ❤️“

“Aloha Stacks is a popular Hawaiian-style breakfast and brunch spot known for its large pancakes and spam masubi. It's a family-owned chain located in a tiny plaza at 10300 Lower Azusa Rd in El Monte.

We came very early morning to grab some breakfast. Customers will
need to order on the counter before seating down. Dinning area is neat, spacious with a relaxing atmosphere. We ordered drip coffee, OJ, Avocado omelette and Blueberry Pancakes. Coffee was mediocre in taste except for the fresh juice. Foods were great and tasty. Service was spot on. Staff were assiduous and professional. Prices are competitive. Parking was easy. Overall, I enjoyed an early breakfast.“

“This place and never went in until a couple days ago and I got the rancheros sunny side up. The flavors were really good. I thought it was a little bit too white sauce the tortillas all the flavor was delicious. The staff was exceptionally attentive and I was just taking out. They gave me a lot of attention, which is pretty nice. Don’t see that anymore. We got a cup of coffee, which is really good and took it home far away for breakfastmaybe share with your friends.“

“We’ve been coming to this IHOP for a long time, and it never disappoints. The restaurant isn’t very big, but that’s exactly what makes it feel so warm and welcoming. The staff is always friendly, attentive, and makes us feel genuinely cared for. Every visit feels like coming home. The food is consistently good, the service is excellent, and the atmosphere is comfortable and relaxing. We’re so grateful to have such a wonderful neighborhood IHOP. Highly recommended!“

“Love the Americana and nothing better than an egg on a sandwich“

“Elvira was an amazing waitress and made us feel like we just stopped in at grandmas house. The food was great and the wait was not too long either. She was attentive the moment we sat in our chairs and constantly ensured that our coffee was full and all our needs were met! Thank you Elvira for the smiles, small talk, and making us feel at home. Your personable nature was truly a blessing!“

“I came in right as they were closing, but they were so kind and didn’t rush me while I made my last minute choice. The pine nut cookie was heavenly. Look forward to trying the rest of their offerings next time Updated from previous review on 2026-02-09“

“Fresh Baguettes, Fresh Bánh mì, Fresh Pho! Wow! One Stop Shop. Discovered an amazing place having all dishes, Vietnamese coffee, desserts, and fresh baguettes like Vietnam. The Vietnamese flavors are spot and authentic! And, great place and vibes for socializing with friends either indoors or on the outdoor patio area. Return we will. To the Proprietor: Cảm ơn!“

“We ordered the croissantwich w/ avocado and the breakfast burriot w/ chorizo, both were 10/10, the burrito was one of the best in LA imo. Food came out quick and Adam was super friendly, great lowkey spot. Dont forget to get the salsa verde“

“I’ve been cutting out refined sugar and it’s been difficult but I came across this place and I was able to have a wonderful chocolate shake with almond milk and cocoa, yes it had sugar but pure cane sugar. It was a great alternative and it taste so yummy! I was also able to add toppings, healthy toppings, strawberries, blueberries, etc. so good! Can’t wait to go back❤️“

“Very pleasant staffs and the food was great and delicious at a very reasonable prices. I'm so impressed by the way they greeted you and make you very comfortable. They pay so much attentions to their patrons regardless of your ethnicity.“

“This was our second time here. The young woman host didn’t smile, nor responded to my greeting, “good morning” but our server was very friendly and that created a great atmosphere. We weren’t rushed to order. The food was good. They don’t have Tapatio chili sauce, but they have “chiles toreados.”“

“This place is such a hole in the wall, would honestly come back. This place been around for a while but I never know this place exist because it’s so hidden.The service is a bit slow when prepping the food, but their tacos are to die for. I would come back any day for tacos!Parking lot is shared with other shops but not too busy! The menu is consistent and so is their food!Would come back again! Don’t let the small shop and sketchy look deceive you!“

“Brandon was great. Super chill, super friendly, and just made everything easy. Food came out fast, he checked in at the right times, and the whole vibe was just better because of him. If you end up at IHOP, hope you get Brandon — dude’s solid.“

“I recently had an outstanding experience at the IHOP in Monterey Park! From the moment I walked in, I was greeted warmly by the staff, and the service throughout my visit was amazing. The team was attentive, friendly, and made me feel truly welcome.

I ordered the Philly cheesesteak, and it was absolutely delicious! The steak was tender and flavorful, perfectly paired with the gooey melted cheese and freshly grilled onions. Each bite was a delight, and the portion size was generous as well.

The overall atmosphere of the restaurant was clean, comfortable, and inviting, making it the perfect spot for a relaxed and satisfying meal. My entire experience here was nothing short of outstanding, and I highly recommend this IHOP location to anyone looking for a great meal and exceptional service.

Five stars all the way!“

“pancakes, waffles, french toast!! Oh my!!“

“My company used Crossroads for a very long project that required catering every weekday for over three weeks. Helen was quick on delivery, she was willing to work with us to add variation to the lunches and her prices could not be beat. The employees we were training highly complimented all the food. Sandwiches, wraps, tacos, bento bowls and salads. All of it was delicious. I cannot thank Helen a Crossroads enough for her hard work and wonderful food.“

“Me encantan sus chilaquiles y muy buenas porciones a precios accesibles“

“I had a small chicken teriyaki salad which was more than enough. It was absolutely delicious and the chicken was cooked perfectly. My husband had the daily special of baked ham with veggies and said they were delish as well. We will definitely be returning.“

“I have ate here twice. First time was dine in. The server Angel was horrible. The first thing we ordered of course were drinks. I ordered a water with lemon and it came after the meal. The pancakes were ice cold and the plates were the exact same size as the pancakes. My husbands order was wrong. He ordered toast as a side and hit potatoes. Then tonight we got good delivered and it was also horrible. The eggs were rubbery and my husband was supposed to get tres leches pancakes and he got regular pancakes. I was supposed to get salsa and sour cream with my tacos and didn’t get it. There was no cheese sauce on my tacos either.“

“Good food, good service and reasonable price 🥰“

“Our waitress Susana was very attentive and engaged with my group. She was very easy going and checked up every now and then. She gave me a pin to celebrate my graduation that happened yesterday. Overall, very pleasant and a great dining experience :)“

“My sister just Introduced me to Crepes & Grapes Cafe Great choice sister 👍👍“

“Well being as my fault because we were late, but we ended up with buffet which was ok. The food was not as tasty, omelette station was too slow because I am assuming she was slow plus she was working alone. Our waiter was very attentive busboy was very helpful. Overall it was good. I need to come back for actual breakfast as a sit downs and ordering it then I might give it a five star.“

“If you're looking for a good spot to eat close to the DTLA court houses, check out the Galero Grill in the Cathedral complex. A five minute walk from the court houses with good food at reasonable prices. Plus, there's a lovely patio with tables to enjoy your meal in peace (other than the Cathedral chimes on the hour). It's run by the Patina group so, although the food isn't fancy, the quality is very good.“

“The cafeteria is a standard food hall with lots of seating and tables.

The main reason I go here is because of their Cali Cob salad is phenomenal. As a person that has tried lots of high end salads at other establishments, this salad is one of the best cobs I’ve ever had.

Almost as great as Joey’s in DTLA. The vegetables are very fresh, the dressing is excellent. I love that it has a lot of chicken pieces that are delicious and egg along with bacon pieces. It’s a solid salad for the price and one of my favorite salads of all time. I highly recommend it.

I will definitely come back to eat that salad & I’ll continue to try their other menu items.“

“muy ricos los desayunos se los recomiendo ☕️🥞“

“For the life of me I don’t get why this place has such a low rating, so Imma do my part to push back against the haters.

First of all, the food: I love a breakfast burrito but also love a runny yolk, since you can get your eggs either sunny side or scrambled here, it’s literally the first place I’ve ever had both at the same time. I ordered the Bronco Burrito and it was perfectly cooked (yolk medium, white parts fully cooked) and well balanced w bits of chopped bacon, avocado, and pickled jalapeno mixed through, along with crispy, fluffy tots. I’d have liked a side of pico de gallo but the Cholula and spicy mayo were fine.

Seems like most of the bad reviews were for delivery so maybe there are issues there with consistency or the ordering platform, but honestly just go and check it out. I had no issues finding it either, but maybe that’s just a skill issue… ;)“
