Comfort Food Restaurants near Baldwin Park, CA

“Excellent food prepared fresh. Great service. Indoor and outdoor eating. Great 👍🏻✌🏼😉“

“Hanshin Pocha opening in Rowland means I no longer have to drive all the way to K-Town when I’m craving Korean bar food. I’ve been to the original location many times, so I’m really glad they expanded.

For me, the must-orders are the spicy squid and the cheese hot plates. The rice was fun to mix and tasted decent, nothing mind-blowing but still satisfying.

The fried chicken was just okay — a little on the dry side IMO— but still makes for a solid bite, especially when you’re drinking. I also really appreciate that their beer mugs come pre-chilled. It's the little things.

Overall, a fun and casual late-night spot that brings the K-Town vibe to the SGV. Definitely worth a visit if you're in the area!“

“The outside fire pit adds to a beautiful, cool summer night. The service is quick and the servers are attentive. Have to give a special shout out to the waiter, Jacob who not only came by frequently but informed us of some extra deals they had going on, and even let us know of this special offer for their monthly beer club without being too pushy. Definitely, coming back. Not only for the ambiance and the fact that I can bring my corgi, but because Jacob was so cool.“

“Located in a vibrant neighborhood, Oyster Dive Bar offers a delightful dining experience with a unique twist on seafood classics. The crispy Cajun fries with cheese are a standout appetizer, perfectly seasoned and crunchy, making them an irresistible starter. The lobster pasta features fresh lobster, expertly prepared and bursting with flavor, showcasing the restaurant's commitment to quality ingredients. The ambiance is cozy and inviting, ideal for both casual outings and intimate dinners. The service is attentive and friendly, adding to the overall enjoyable atmosphere. Prices are reasonable given the quality and portion sizes. However, it's worth noting that the restroom could use more attention; cleanliness was a bit lacking during my visit. Despite this minor drawback, the delicious food and pleasant surroundings make Oyster Dive Bar a recommended choice for seafood enthusiasts looking to enjoy a satisfying meal in a relaxed setting. Overall, Oyster Dive Bar earns four stars for its tasty dishes, friendly service, and comfortable ambiance. With a few improvements in cleanliness, it could easily become a five-star dining destination.“

“The bolo bao ice cream sandwich was the bomb! I had it with ube ice cream. The garlic fries - lots of fresh garlic with a side of bomb lemon aoili and house sauce! The best! Passionfruit green tea was perfect for the hot weather! So cute inside too! It's a smaller space and a one man show. Everything is made fresh so please be patient - it's worth the wait! Great service! It's a hidden gem to the right of BofA in the plaza. — at CrispyandFluffed.“

“Best Bar in Whittier!! Amazing bartenders!!“

“On my last visit, I accidentally ordered the wrong item, but the manager was so kind and accommodating. They not only brought me the dish I had originally wanted but also let me keep the first item I ordered by mistake. That level of customer service really stood out to me and made me feel valued.
The food here is consistently delicious great portions, flavorful, and always fresh. Every time I come, I leave satisfied. Highly recommend this place for both the food and the excellent service!“

“very good comfort food that you can really dig into<3“

“It was our first time back to this place since the change of new ownership. We used to come a lot when it was under Cortez ownership. Needless to say, we wanted to go somewhere local without waiting much so we decided to come back and try this place.

It was empty when we came in on a Sunday afternoon. The server was very welcoming, courteous and attentive. It was about 92 outside and inside it was nice and fresh, cool but not ice cold. There was plenty of parking ( they have a small parking lot and plenty of street parking).

We both ordered the chilaquiles, one Red and Green plate. Came with refried beans and potatoes. The portions were relatively decent sized; not too big and not too small.

They gave us homemade chips with some homemade green salsa, fidelio soup which were all good but the salsa in my opinion phenomenal. So the free entries were good.

The chips were homemade and not too hard and not saggy, not full of sodium either. The sauces and salsa are all homemade and delicious. The red and green chilaquiles salsas that this place uses were both handmade and great. The beans were delicious, the potatoes were rather hard though and in a very small portion. We enjoyed the food, definitely coming back to try other things on the menu. THEY DON’T SELL ALCOHOL……..

The prices were relatively reasonably priced. If ur local, and don’t want to go broke or wait for a ridiculous waitlist then I’d definitely recommend coming.“

“If you’re looking for a cozy and relaxing spot, I highly recommend **Hide Out by Tea Lane**. It's a wonderful place to unwind with a great selection of teas and a serene atmosphere. Perfect for some quiet time or catching up with friends!“

“Complex, authentic Korean flavors made with traditional p ingredients. A humble porridge could become a pleasantly enjoyable experience. I ordered bulnakji porridge today and instead of using ground beef or cheap meat, they used a good quality meat and then they sautéed the marinated bulgogi in butter. mmm. Chives/buchu they used were fresh and green. So was the octopus. Often times you taste the fishiness but this octopus or nakji had a very clean flavor. The venue and the food they served were very clean. I highly recommend this place.“

“Chicken and beef pies I have loved most of my life. Still great !!!!!“

“Located on a less visited side of the plaza, there's this Korean restaurant that has fair prices food and portions.

Standard to all Korean restaurant, we were served with various side dishes which were pretty good flavor breakers for the food that was coming in.

We ordered a cold noodle dish, a Tripe/Brisket Glass noodle dish, and the premium bossam.

The staff was kind enough to inform us how to eat the premium bossam, providing lettuce to create a mixture wrap.

Alternating between the bossam and brisket was a easy break of flavor between the two, and you would quickly devour both in no time.

I wouldn't say there was anything in particular that stood out from this place, but sometimes you don't need a WOW place to eat at, and instead a quickly seated restaurant for some comfy food is all you need.“

“First timers here at Lazy Dog. I was thinking this would be a hot dog place but it isn’t lol, they gave us some garlic chips for it being our first time I thought that was really nice of them. I ordered Kung Pao Shrimp, it was really good but a bit TOO salty for my liking. I also got a beer they ID you so bring you’re ID.“

“Family and I have been coming here for ages. Yeah some things are pricy, but most have decent portions. Food a little bit on the greasy side though. I like their braised tofu most. Their porridge is good with big chunks of yam! Parking can be a bit difficult to find at times.“

“Good soup and side dishes. Large servings and servers are very nice😁“

“he'll mf yea this place is amazing. best tasting chicken sandwiches! real spice if u can handle the heat“

“Always a good laugh or two provided by Brad. Beers are cold, tunes are what you put on, fries are always on point; crispy without being over fried, served hot! Pool, darts, and lotsa TVs. Only thing missing is a new and current 2024 Golden Tee Golf ???“

“Amazing food and service. Love this place. ❤“

“We eat dinner here about once a week regularly after table tennis. We love their ice lemon tea with refills and the black sesame milk tea. We like the on-choy, pork belly with preserved vegetables, squids with sour cabbage, egg plants, pan fried eggs with dry radish or bitter melon, cabocha, etc.“

“Perfect portion for one person. The free tea was a nice touch too!“

“The Best Taiwanese Hotpot place in Socal.“
