Corner Stone Restaurant American •
17785 Center Ct Dr N, Cerritos

“We came here for a nightcap after a Dave Koz & Friends Christmas show across the parking lot. We were served by a bartender named Brian and he made two of the most delicious espresso martinis (one regular, one with Baileys Irish Creme) we’ve ever had! He was quick, friendly, and made sure all guests in the hotel who wanted a drink close to the bar’s closing time got served. We were that impressed that we said we stay at this hotel because of his hospitality & personality. He not only took great care of us, but to all the guests he served prior to close. Kudos to Brian!!!“

“I was blown away by the outstanding service and incredible food at this restaurant. The staff was genuinely kind and knew the menu inside out, making great recommendations for our wine and food pairings. The duck breast was cooked to perfection, and the tarte tatin was an absolute highlight. The ambiance was intimate and charming, with elegant French-style décor and soft, ambient music. This restaurant provides a fantastic, authentic French dining experience and is definitely worth visiting!“

NY Chopped Cheese Sandwich

“Do you wanna Grind?

Free samples - they suck you in like a vortex. The Grind opened up at Los Cerritos Center, serving up New York Style Chopped Cheese, Smashburgers and Loaded Fries. Strolling through the mall, I've noticed & availed myself of The Grind's Smashburger samples, on many an occasion. They're so cheesy & gooey. I've heard about Chopped Cheese sandwiches, a New York staple, so I was intriqued to try one for myself.

New York Style Chopped Cheese-
I watched the Chopped Cheese process. 2 never frozen Smashburger patties (I chose raw onions. I assume grilled onions would cook with/alongside the patties), topped with 2 slices American cheese till melted. Chopped up, then topped with shredded cheese till melted. Placed into an Amoroso roll w/ mayo, Signature sauce (spicy, for mine), tomatoes, lettuce, raw onions, pickles. The Chopped Cheese looks small, but it's actually quite hefty & filling. The soft w/ a crusty shell Amoroso roll could barely manage all the juices coming out of it. The cheesy patties were succulent, yet had the crunchy off the griddle exterior. I relished every bite of my Chopped Cheese, and found my appetite satiated.

Service was good. Ordering is cashless via tablets. I asked the cook to add more vegetables to my sandwich. Completion of my order didn't take long, as I watched the cook do his thing. The Grind is located in-between Lupita's Tacos & Ruby Thai.

The Grind is a welcome addition the Los Cerritos Center food court. I'm unaware if their Chopped Cheese is a reasonable facsimile of those in New York, but I do know I was quite happy with my sandwich. Diminutive at first glance, The Grind's Chopped Cheese is a great tasting sandwich, and I'm looking forward to having another one as I type this. Highly recommend!“
