“Yummy! I live in East L.A. and I know the aroma and flavors of amazing Mexican food. Passing by Azusa to visit APU and this hidden gem is in the shopping plaza on Cerritos avenue. We got the nachos, tacos, cafe de olla frio and churros nieve. Rating the food 0 = :( and 5 = :). Tacos- 5 pickled jalapeño mix that came with the food also 5 Cafe de olla frio- 5, I can actually taste the cinnamon from the cafe de olla... sooo good Nachos- amazing 5, with the chorizo meat = heaven in my mouth Churros nieve- fresh churros, still warm "dulce de leche" filled = 5 Everything was fresh, spicy, delicious and a sign I'm going to need a double work out tonight!“
“Excellent beer selection, food looked good. Literally could not hear anything the server said because of the music. I went outside where the volume was loud but tolerable. No menu, link led to download that didn't work or took so long I gave up.I may try again. But not if the club atmosphere continues.Vegetarian options: Vegetarian and vegan optionsWheelchair accessibility: Easy access, though inside might be tight on a crowded night“
“The golden chicken soup base is very rich and delicious, especially the Japanese A5 Wagyu beef, which is sweet, smooth and tender and melts in your mouth! The food is fresh and there is nothing wrong with it. I will definitely come back again. It was a great experience “
“Went on a date night with my husband and was pleasantly surprised at how AMAZING this place is! The service is top notch especially the bartender Adrian. They have craft cocktails that are delish. The food is really good too. Great experience, highly recommend!“
“Calamari with shiso, lobster, scallop, and beef tar tar were out of this worlddddd! Didn’t think that this little establishment in the middle of nowhere (sort of) can offer this much. ? it has def become our new fav Chinese fusion restaurant in town.Also highly recommend their mala spicy hotpot cocktail ? amazing service and unique ambience/interior design. HIGHLY RECOMMEND ?“
“Loved the food, we found this place accidentally thinking it was sushi but it was a very good mistake! Very delicious but definitely dress for a special occasion. We loved all The courses and the desserts were absolutely delicious! At first we thought we wouldn't get full but by the end of dinner we were more than satisfied!“
“Arrived at 3:45 on a Saturday during the Christmas Holidays. We were seated right away.This place is awesome. Northwoods Inn's original location opened in 1958 in North Monrovia then relocated to it's current location in Covina due to the construction of the 210 freeway.Christmas atmosphere completes your dining experience.Yes, grab a bowl and serve yourself roasted peanuts.Then enjoy the endless purple cabbage , green salad and cheesy bread.Next your main entree. Something on the menu for everyone. Steaks, Seafood, Chicken....etcOn your way out do not forget to grab a handful of root beer barrel candy or their mints.Kid-friendliness: Fun for kidsWheelchair accessibility: Yes!“
“Staff that cares! Great place. Wonderful food. Seems lately customer service is a thing of the past. NOT here. The staff if Friendly, they accommodate seating requests if possible. I get cold , so not sitting outside or by the door makes for a better dining experience.They do keep the door open for outside diners, which can be chilly for those on the inside.They are very knowledgeable in wine selection and know how to pair well with the entrées.One super bonus, lots of gluten free selections!!!Dietary restrictions: They offer many tasty gluten and vegetarian options. I'm neither, but my sister is gluten sensitive, and this was a fav of hers.“
“If you're looking for a good time on a Friday night come here. I reserved a table for my moms birthday and the staff were very welcoming and accommodating. The woman who host the karaoke was very sweet and our waiter as well. Me and my family had so much fun.“
“This is great hidden gem. What a great place to go with a good mix of patrons . There was a great age mix that made me feel comfortable . The drinks are great . The ambiance is inviting - happening - and entertaining. Had a great time with friends . I will return for sure with more friends.“
“Everything was good except for the garlic fries. They were overwhelming to the point of after having 1 we had trouble tasting our other food. I like garlic but this was way too much. Besides that we would return but without the garlic fries. After getting a response from the owner I was corrected by saying that they don't have garlic fries, they have truffle fries.Even more troubling because they tasted garlicky and way over seasoned with that truffle flavor that you added.Therefore I stand corrected.Truffle fries....“
“My wife and I came here on a Saturday night and there were maybe about 3 other tables occupied. There was live music which was great. We didn't see anyone working so we sat ourselves in a booth and patiently waited for someone to take our order. Ended up ordering the botana la palma and ceviche de pescado. About 5-10 minutes later we were informed there were no more fish for the ceviche, so we decided to go with shrimp instead. The service was a bit slow or non existent. Maybe because the restaurant was hosting a paint&sip on the other side and required the waitress' attention. Nonetheless the food was amazing! Seafood tasted fresh and full of flavor. Where it went a bit wrong was when we got our bill. I typically just double the tax for a 20% tip, but didn't realize until afterwards that 1. The tax was off and 2. We got the wrong bill. The botana la palma was $25 and ceviche i believe was around $19, but was charged $25 for sashimi de atun azul. The tax was only $2.49 so our tip was unfortunately lower than intended (sorry, I was tipsy). My fault for not checking, but I was in a rush. Overall, would definitely come back, but will double check my bill.“
“went to barros around 240pm got the individual antipasto salad. and to my surprise it was huge and tastes delicious. also a beer on tap. I've been coming here as a kid since the 90's. It's been threw alot of cosmetic changes threwout the years but GOT DAMN!!! the pizzas and salads are beyond incredible. whenever I need a good pizza and/or salad. my number 1 pick. is Barros pizza over all corporate pizza places. HIGHLY RECOMMEND.the pizza pics are from a previous order a week ago for takeout.another recommendation is to always get your pizza well done. if your into a good crispy pie! ? ? ? ? ?“
“I forgot to take a picture but the food was delicious. I ordered the quesabirria tacos (comes with 3 & the meat juice) and a jamaica and they both were good. The agua frescas come in the big margarita schooner glasses. Not sure if they have free refills but I don't think so. I liked my tacos crunchy so I asked for them well. The chips were crunchy and not stale, the guac taste fresh. The waiter was attentive and checked on us a few times. Overall it was a good experience.Parking: It's in a shopping center and there is plenty of parking.“
“Besides the bfast brunch ending at 10am and I couldn’t sit and enjoy bfast at 945am I went back for lunch at 12pm. Lupe was my server he was super friendly and the staff was all very attentive and friendly. It was a great view I definitely recommend!“
“Went here for St. PATRICK'S DAY looking to have a beer and some fish ? and chips with the wife. Place was crowed and quite festive ☘️. Service was slow with the beer as demand was high and the servers and bar staff were frantically filling orders for ? folks who were chugging away the green beer and other mixed drinks as fast as they were presented to the patrons. Patience was key and the bar and wait staff are ? Champs for working so hard on a Sunday St PADDY'S day. Beer and alcohol service for that day was also available outside on the patio. Enjoyed a cold one streetside with other friendly folks waiting to get a table. Once we were seated the wait staff was fast and polite. Drink order came around fast and surprisingly the food was just as fast too. I highly recommend this place for the fish and chips. Great batter, comes out crisp and light, good tarter sauce and their coleslaw is just the way I like it. Better yet they have one of my favorite Irish Cream Ales on hand Killkenny. Great Red Ale which is always on tap here throughout the year...Definitely coming back. My wife had ordered the same food dish and big thumbs up from her too...she doesn't drink alcohol so she ordered a Shirley Temple to which they served in a large beer ? mug which made her happy too. Would absolutely recommend this place as there is a great bar and restaurant atmosphere and setting in this quaint downtown setting of La Verne. A shout out to manager Anthony who was serving beer on the pation and showing great hospitality to everyone outside.Parking: Small downtown area next to college so parking is a little competitive depending on time of year and time of day and which day of the week. There is a lot to the east that has free parking.“
“I was in town staying at the hotel next door. And we ate at El Torito 2 nights in a row - for Happy Hour. The food was great but the service by Natalie, was beyond exceptional! She has a great personality, she was amazingly accurate, and food was delivered on time. What made the service so exceptional was that we had about 17-20 people each night. We highly recommend El Torito. To me, I will miss it, as it felt like a home away from home. Thank you Natalie.“
“I’m a fan. Lots of history here. This was also a filming location for the movie Bad Santa. The hotel IS haunted. But I don’t believe it is yet operational again. The Mayan is and it’s a really cool place. The staff is super friendly and engaging as well. Be sure to walk around and check out the pictures on the wall. Yes! They are from the 30s and 40s. Welcome to Old Route 66.“
“Just had their pho again and it's delicious. The service was fast and attentive. He did a great job considering he's the only server this morning. The place is super clean and that's a plus. A little high for a pho place but, it's so worth it. If you're looking for a good clean broth and delicious pho, this is the place for it... doesn't matter the cost.“
“We were looking for a dive bar and found this great bar! The name is just how I felt...Full of cheers. Service was great and also got to meet the owners, Raul and wife Carol. The bar had a dj rocking the crowd and people were dancing enjoying the great music and good drinks!“
“It was mine n hubbys first time! We were on our way to el Torito and noticed Temple Bar and decided to try it out. BEST DECISION EVER! The staff was friendly and the food was Delicious! Missy was our waitress and she was awesome!! What a great experience, we will definitely be back. We found our new champagne brunch spot. #TempleBar #buzzybooth“
“I love this bar & everyone in it.. We love you Nancy , Kim , Greenie , & Melissa aka the bartenders . Helen every Wednesday & Friday for karaoke is the best around . Bobby V. & FISH every other Saturday for live acoustic sounds are a real treat and anyone else who feels like getting up there to do a song are welcome to do so. We have Tina in the kitchen cooking it up just about every Wednesday and Friday and everything she puts together is yummy! LAST but not least we have Gary the Owner , he is totally sweet as can be. The price is right . The cheapest place to drink anywhere i know and drinks are just right not watered down. They have a pool table and a juke box as well. So there's a lot going on at the "G" And to ALL our friends who come there whatever day of the week it's always fun , no matter who's here. Everyone's welcome at the Grand.“
“OHHHHMMMMGGGGEEEE this is the bar for me!!! When I first walked in the spider stomp immediately caught my eye. Being a 16 time world champion spider stomper i felt alive again for the first time in 35 years. I got really tired after about 14 hours of play and hopped into the jacuzzi in the back and lit up a dart. I started to get hungry so I ordered a charcuterie board and some oysters to the jacuzzi through the mobile app. Wednesdays are Warhammer Wednesdays where everyone brings their 40K setup, such a tight community. I'm not much of a drinker, but they have a stellar collection of exotic kratom selections (as well as some performance enhancing pills if you know who to ask, will keep you bricked up for days lmao). Well anyways, I had a pretty good time and I'm glad to see Glendora clean up a bit in recent years :)“
“I loved my visit! It did not take very long to get seated if you get there early enough. The food was great I got the smoked salmon avocado toast. Such a big portion. It was delicious! I also got a tea and it was a lot! I would highly recommend going there for breakfast!“
“Such a cool place to go dance and just chill and hang out and listen to oldies! DJ Mina is awesome! Everybody there is cool specially YiYi and the crew. If you just want to chill ... The Industry Bar is the place!! Hands down the vibe is off the hook“
“A very sophisticated restaurant. All at the highest level. The waiters know the menu very well and the composition of the products in each dish. For us it was important because there are some allergies. The service was fast, everything was very tasty, I recommend to visit“
“This is my first time at this establishment. Bartenders were on point with their drinks. They were friendly and sociable. They were pretty busy for a late Sunday night. I haven't tried the food, but I hear the wings are delicious. I was told to make sure I asked for the gem sauce. I will definitely be going back to try some of their items on that menu and looking forward to my future visits... perhaps play some darts and pool.. oh , and bartender Kenny knows his stuff.!!!“
“I live literally around the corner from this bar my first time stopping in like the atmosphere for the most part the people are very friendly I forget our bartender's name but she was pretty awesome I think I would make this my bar of choice“
“Super cool little spot! Not much people there when we went because there wasn't a game going on. However we still had fun. We played billiards and darts, and the owners were super friendly and helped us out with how to play. Everyone else there was friendly as well. When we are back in the area we'll be back again!“
“This bar is perfect for what it is. It's clean, there's plenty of tables, lots of space at the bar, big TV's, and a great selection of beers and few ciders. They don't serve food but you can bring your own. They ONLY have beer and wine. They have foosball, automated dart games, and a Bluetooth juke box. The bartenders are all chill and make great micheladas. Anytime I'm in the area and I'm not ready to go home, I pop in for a drink and a round of darts.“
“Lots of draft beer if you like draft beer no hard alcohol necessarilyLittle Joe's next door and they used to bring it to you in the bar to eat there food is good it's getting ready to open again.Diomand pool tables are nice.Good music system.“
“Tuesday 4/2/24 Dinner at Kalaveras in City of Industry with my friend Eddie. Enjoying Tacos Tuesday: delicious street tacos style with a great price; 99 cents after 3 pm! It is like all you can eat tacos at this price. I ate 10 tacos and could have eaten more but I have to watch my figure; I want to remain “round” and not “oval.”The service staffs were friendly and attentive.David YoungRestaurant Enthusiast“
“Such a fun vibe! I hadn't been there in a long time but I went recently and the new owners have done a great job. The drinks are affordable and they have a pool league which is fun. Totally recommend if you want to go somewhere nice and chill.“
“There's a small bar on the border of Covina and West Covina that looks like a simple beer and wine type of place. But don't be fooled by the small appearance, they can pack the house with live bands or a DJ or juke box any time. They have a full bar and plenty of seating at the counter or high-top tables. Locals come here to enjoy watching sports, hang out with friends or hit the dance floor by the stage. There's a good vibe, don't want any trouble cause the bouncer will see you out the door! Drop by, it's open 7 days a week!“
“I was craving fish and chips on Saturday. When we walked in there wasn't anyone to greet us. They only had two people one at the bar and one serving plus there was a big party in the patio. Since it was so busy we did have to wait a bit to order and get our food. My fish was amazing, and the burger was tasty. It definitely has a pub feel. There are high tables by the bar and booths on the side. Our server was running around, but still had a smile and great attitude!“
“This is a local gem. I definitely recommend Britestar Tavern.??Great spot for a legit pint. From fresh craft beers to domestic specials they got you covered. Cool, chill vibe with great draft beer on tap. Pool table, live music on Tuesday nights, Monday night Paint night. ????Props to Bianca for the great service. This place is the real deal.Thank you Britestar Tavern. ??“
“Max's food is delicious. The taste and amount are on point. The staff has always been very friendly. They take same day reservations. Love the chips and salsaserved before the food arrives! The outdoor "MAX'S" sign wasn't lit, so we missed it and had to turn around. Hard to find at night, but the staff said they would have it fixed by the next day. There's plenty of free parking available, and they are kid friendly!“
“If I would have given a review 7 years ago in 2016, I would have said 1 star. Because there was no beer on tap, it was a Corona from a refrigerator & my thoughts were that I could go across the street to Target to get beer from a refrigerator for cheaper. However, when this guy invited me inside on Wed. 9-6-23,, it was a different story. It was very welcoming & friendly. The cold beers (Corona, Dos Equis, Modelo) in bottles were delicious, especially on a hot day, & at a discounted price during happy hour. The bartender (the owner's wife) kindly made me some free popcorn. There was a jukebox playing Mexican music & it was entertaining to see someone singing along to some songs. I enjoyed my time there & was thankful that my friend had invited me. I really like him & liked it even more watching him play pool & hit the ball really hard at times. And I learned some more Spanish too. So my mind changed from 1 to 5 stars. Thanks for your generosity & thanks for treating him well!“
