“Thank you so much for the fresh delicious delivery...#supportlocalbusinessescovid-19”
“Dined in Friday night with my husband and some friends. Didn't take long to be sat inside. Our waitress was Ashley. She was very patient, friendly and knowledgeable of the menu as we had a lot of questions. She almost had my husband sold on the weekend pork chop special they had that was off the menu, but there was no way he could finish that on his own and I had my heart set on the brisket! Ashley checked on us multiple times until she had to take a break and Kaitlyn took over for a little bit. She was very friendly with a big bright smile. All around pleasant time. Drinks and food were yummy. We will be back!”

“A Hidden Gem That Feels Like the French Quarter Itself! From the moment we stepped into The Quarter in Claremont, it was like being whisked straight to New Orleans. The atmosphere was electric — the scent of Creole spices in the air, the soft hum of conversation mingled with jazz playing in the background, and the decor that looked plucked right out of the French Quarter. I half-expected to walk outside and find a brass band on the corner! We started with the soft-shelled crab and grits, perfectly crisp and full of Southern comfort. The fried catfish topped with crawfish étouffée was rich, flavorful, and absolutely indulgent — pure Louisiana soul on a plate. The roasted catfish with lump crab was delicate yet decadent, each bite melting in your mouth. Even the bread and butter were unforgettable — the sweet Creole butter was so good we could’ve made a meal out of it alone. Our bourbon cocktails were spot-on — smooth, balanced, and crafted with care — and we finished with the bread pudding drizzled in warm bourbon sauce, which was heavenly. Every dish was layered with flavor and heart. A special shoutout to José, our server, who was not only attentive and friendly but truly made us feel like family. His recommendations were perfect! We live three and a half hours away, but honestly, I’d make the drive again just for a date night here. It’s that good. The Quarter doesn’t just serve food — it serves an experience.”

“I’ve been to plenty of fast-casual spots, but my recent visit to Dave’s Hot Chicken stood out, and that was entirely because of Yeffrey and Isaac. Great food brings you in, but the people behind the counter decide whether you come back. These two made sure I will.
Yeffrey was on it from the moment I walked in. He was friendly and upbeat, and he took the time to make sure my order was right without making me feel rushed. You can tell he genuinely enjoys helping people, and it makes a difference.
Isaac was just as impressive. He kept things moving efficiently while still bringing real energy and warmth to the job. It’s obvious he cares about the customer experience, not just getting orders out the door.
What stood out most was how well they worked together. The whole place felt welcoming and well run, and that kind of atmosphere comes from employees who take pride in their work. The chicken was excellent too, but Yeffrey and Isaac made the visit memorable.
To whoever manages this location: you have two standout employees, and they deserve recognition. I’ll be back, and I hope they’re working when I am.”
“Scrumptious, moist, and irresistible describes the cake I ordered from Some Crust for my mother’s memorial service reception. The cake was impeccably crafted and the designers decorated it in exactly the manner in which we requested, “Not too much.” The frosting was strikingly smooth and the piping adorned only the bottom of the cake, ensuring the decoration was not too much. The colors of the yellow and red roses and the green leaves on top of the cake were tastefully muted and maintained the minimal emphasis of the decorations. It was a spice cake in which all the flavors blended perfectly without one flavor standing out too predominantly. It was delivered exactly at the time it was scheduled to arrive at the location. I highly recommend this bakery when you have an occasion that requires a specialty cake.”
“WONDERFUL place! Great acai bowls & empanadas! ( family liked chicken & steak /cheese) very friendly staff ... and helpful with explaining all the varieties to make the bowls. going back today to try more! wish we had this place in Florida. highly recommend. (prices are good too)”
“We Loved everything we tried - such Wonderful organic food, prepared to perfection! We also enjoyed the unique old world atmosphere, and the service was excellent ! Thank you John, for a night we will never forget, and food we will have a hard time ever matching anywhere else !”
“Enjoyed the cheese board and a few excellent wines in the tasting.”

“Great place to start or end a Route 66 trip. Staff is nice and friendly. The pulled pork sandwich is yummy. Wish the prices were a little cheaper but that’s just how everything is these days. When buying a regular fountain drink (including the one in the combo deals), you get a free refill after; so that is cool. Worth checking out for sure!”
“Ironbark is a very nice local brewery! They make and serve hard cider, there are some other drinks available and food trucks visit on the weekends with a variety of cuisine. There are musical events, pub, trivia, bingo, and Friday karaoke, as well as a monthly open mic night. It is a great friendly café type atmosphere and an LGBTQ+ safe space!”
“Stopped here off the highway for a quick lunch on a roadtrip. This place is amazing for a meal that’s not too filling and leaves you satisfied. Portion sizes are giant for the price! I had the grilled salmon with penne pasta and a salad and it was delicious. The salmon is thin cut. This was a perfect meal for us that wasn’t too heavy. The salad was super refreshing and the dressing was tasty. There’s a tiny parking lot in back if you’re lucky. Be prepared to street park.”
“I have been in several Peruvian restaurants in LA, but like Inka Trails, no other. This is the closest you can taste peru. The quality, the service and most of it the Peruvian experience every time you go there. The owner Patty is always catering to you to make sure you have the best of Inka Trails. I totally recomend it. :}”

“Fantastic food. I had the black cod, it was light and fresh, I highly recommend. Great service by Kee and the coffee was excellent. This is a great place to meet clients for lunch or dinner because it is quiet and you can probably utilize the lounge areas outside. A great Claremont meeting place!”
“Needed a bit to eat after my leg workout. I wanted chicken and rice so came in to try this place out. I was a little confused because it says Aladdin but the sign outside says burgers 🤣 Glad I walked out to look for it. Ordered a chicken kabob. It was about $30 with the extra chicken kabob, but it was a hefty meal. The plate came with rice, grilled veggies, hummus, pita, and a green salad. The chicken was juicy and flavorful. Everything was tasty, even the garlic sauce and taziki sauce. Glad I tried it out.”
“You can always get a great beverage and meal at The back Abbey.”
“My beloved girlfriend saw this on the Ticktock, and figured we'd give it a go. Don't be fooled by the unassuming (and sometimes unlit sign), the food is tasty, the portions are quite generous, and the service is impressive. Just don't forget to add seasoning like the MSG, lobster sauce, and garlic to give your dish a good balanced flavor.
Prices are fair, 50 bucks for 2 very large
bowl, which will easily become 2 more meals, so I would say it's about $12.50 a person/meal.
Would highly recommended to anyone who is either a local or a visitor! Thanks Mongolian BBQ for the wonderful date night spot!”

“Our favorite Claremont restaurant, for all reasons: great, tasty, healthy food; friendly and family run; reasonable prices; and a nice casual atmosphere. The mapu tofu, green beans, and vegetable dumplings are my favorite, but everyone we take here likes their food.”
“The food taste bland, needs seasoning. The pomodoro tastes metallic, like it was made with cheap canned tomatoes. And for those high prices, not acceptable. The back patio was infested with flies, we couldn't eat trying to swat them off our dishes. It's gone downbin quality andvup in prices. 1 star rating, the health department needs to be called for indpection.”
“We came as a group of 18 people last night and Simei did AN AMAZING job serving us. We usually go with this group to other restaurants in downtown Claremont, and it always takes so long getting our food and drinks situated, but not here! Our entire group was so impressed how she was able to handle large party on her own. She was so helpful and served us so well throughout the night. The drinks were great and everyone seemed to enjoy the food! Thank you again!”
“YASSSSS the owner here is a KING! The portion sizes are GREAT and this is an AMAZING place if you need to get that protein in for your muscles! I appreciate the staff who works here and the student discounts!!! I was going from a sad depresso student to a happy and content student who enjoys the yum yum beef bowls! 10/10 and great if you're ever stranded in Claremont!”

“This little small Korean wings spot surprise me. I got the Korean barbecue spicy wings with fries. And the wings came out super crispy and flavorful. The fries that look really mid surprise me as well with this spices which again was very flavorful. I was looking for a new wings location and this is by far the best I’ve been to in all of I.E. I highly recommend this place if you love Korean wings.”
“Whenever I visit family in California we always dine at this restaurant. The only thing I can say is it would be good have plates made of porcelain instead of plastic . It will make the food taste more authentic and delicious! I love Thai food and have been to Thailand a couple times.”

“I used to frequent the Claremont location, was pretty excited not to drive all the way To Claremont. First disappointment, this place doesn’t just sell the only meat, either a pita sandwich or a plate, which I need since I made my own sides. Second disappointment after order something I wanted since you don’t sell just the meat, my order was so over cooked and dry, the cooked seems to and extra sauce to make moist again- pretty disappointed. The service was great, just the quality of food was horrible.”
“Stopped in for a quick lunch and ended up staying longer than planned because the patio was surprisingly peaceful. I ordered the turkey pesto sandwich, and the pesto had a nice homemade taste not overly oily. The bread was a little denser than I prefer, but the flavors worked well together. Friendly staff and a relaxed vibe make it a solid casual stop.”
“Very down-to-earth group of people that make you feel welcome. Lots of good times all centered around some healthy running/walking together.”
“Amazing small owned business! Owners were so kind and helpful. We tried their soft serve ice cream. So soft and smooth. Tried limited edition Dubai & brown sugar boba ice cream cups. Def recommend it, so delicious
And I love their color changing spoons, you can take your time to enjoy your ice cream. Will be coming back to try more on the menu”

“I needed a place to meet my case worker in Claremont so I Googled and found this place. My former voucher housing was down Foothill but somehow I never noticed this place. Glad I did. It's comfortable and convenient. My case worker said she would definitely be back and so will I. I just read on the website that all proceeds go to charity and I'm in awe. It's exactly my kind of establishment. Thank you God bless.”
“The #5 Strawberry French Toast surprised me by how good it was!! The flavors paired well and the small size was a pretty sizable portion. I’d honestly say it’s the perfect size for sharing. Note that if you’re used to the traditional tang of froyo, this place does them mixed on a cold stone so it ends up tasting more custard-y. The staff were also friendly and gave me good order recommendations :) Would absolutely recommend this place if you’re visiting the 5 C’s or just in the area!”
“The best customer service we ever had! We were traveling to LA for the Harry Styles’ shows and ordered the cherry pants and added expedited shipping so they would arrive before we had to catch our plane. Two days out and still no pants. Working with McKenna and Katie, they offered to drop off a pair at our hotel when we arrived. Fortunately the pants showed up the day before our flight so they didn’t have to make that trip. I would definitely order from them again, super great customer service and cute cute cute items!”
“What kind of say about anyone choices? It has so many great options for our family. I am more into the sweet side so I love getting my peanut butter and chocolate. My wife is more on the delegate. It doesn’t like her stuff sweet so we get a yogurt based vanilla option for her like I said there’s plenty of options for everyone picky, eaters or not everyone has something to pick”
“Some places aren’t just restaurants—they’re memory machines. For my dad, this Round Table was the taste of high school, sweat still on his jersey after a game, friends piling into booths, and the kind of pizza that made the world feel bigger than it was. Coming back here for his birthday wasn’t just dinner, it was a return ticket to those nights. This is a franchise, sure, but ownership matters—and this one gets it. The hospitality wasn’t some corporate script; it was human, generous, and real. They went out of their way to make the night feel special. My dad lit up. That alone was worth five stars. And yes, they had anchovies. The true test. Salty, sharp, unapologetic—the topping that separates the tourists from the lifers. Combine that with friendly, attentive service and you’ve got the kind of place where you don’t complain, you just eat, drink, and remember why simple things matter.”
“I went into this Starbucks because of my last experience. My order was taken again by a gentleman named Dom. I told him what my order was and I was a little surprised at how I was being charged; most places charge me for a tall cup of sweet cream-like milk, but Dom did not overcharge me. He charged me for a short cup. This is the first Starbucks that has gotten it right in a while. My drinks were made quickly by a gentleman named Dallas, and my food was ordered promptly as well by a gentleman named Daniel. I will continue to come back to Starbucks because of the service and the attention to detail when charging customers. I usually don’t buy from corporate coffee, but because the store is so friendly and charges correctly, I will support this business. I also did purchase a cup toddler and I asked about the new Starbucks release Snoopy cups and Dom provided information regarding the cup release.”
“Hands down the BEST ramen I've ever had anywhere. They make their own ramen and they've perfected it. I've been enjoying it for the last 4 years while my son was going to Pomona College but now that he's graduated, I enjoyed my last bowl of their ramen yesterday. No other place I've been to in CA, OR, or WA comes close. I will miss Menkoi Ya Ramen!”
“maybe it’s nostalgia, but i’ve been coming here since i was kid and the food is as yummy as i remember. a lot of people said there was food poisoning in the past but i think we shouldn’t listen to people who eat at a grade B burger joint. their A grade inspection placard speaks for itself. the food is yummy, the employee is serious, and its cheap. i think this place is great!”
“This is a hidden in plain site gem !!! If you like wine please support this awesome place. I will be going again very soon…..”
“Had Jaiden as our bartender, she was very attentive and got me the extra sauces I asked for. The drinks were actually pretty good! Got the Watermelon Smash and Passionfruit Sour and then got the tenders and fries basket. The tenders my friend ordered def were bigger and he got more, mine was like 2.5 tenders as the third piece was not a full size tender but his were decent portions. Not sure if they go by weight or quantity 🤷♂. I like the ambience though and it is a nice chill spot for food and drinks.”
“Clean kitchen, kind staff, & crepes are SO good 🤯 They also have vegan/ dairy free options 👍 Definitely recommend and we will absolutely be back ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐”

“A Daily Delight at This Subway! I'm a frequent visitor to this Subway location, and I can't help but sing its praises. Day in and day out, they deliver an exceptional experience. First off, the food here is consistently fresh and delicious. Whether I'm ordering a BLT or something else from their menu, I know I can count on top-notch ingredients and flavors. What sets this Subway apart is the outstanding service. The team takes the time to make a genuine connection, asking how my day is going and what exciting plans I have for the weekend. It's these little moments of friendly conversation that elevate the experience. The morning crew is always on point, ensuring a smooth start to the day. And when I swing by in the evening, the night crew impresses me with their efficiency and dedication to getting the job done right. In fact, I'm so impressed with the service here that I don't mind going the extra mile, literally, to visit this Subway. It's worth the effort to enjoy not just a fresh BLT with everything but also the warm and welcoming atmosphere they provide. This Subway is a shining example of how exceptional service can turn a routine meal into a memorable experience. Kudos to the entire team for their outstanding efforts!”

“I've been here many times but the last few have been great - a shoutout to Homer - he's a congenial fellow and fun bartender. He manages to juggle front of house, tasks, refills, and being sociable very well.
One thing - do not sleep on the breakfast burritos. They're very good and quite filling. I'd get them more often but I have to be super hungry.
The food slaps when you want a hot dog or fried chicken. I prefer all beef hot dogs and these taste great. Today I tried their sliders with miso ranch and they really hit the spot after work. I typically get the chili idol dog but the MBC sliders were yummy! Their tots are a favorite as well.
I used to study outside where there is plenty of space. They have a fun and broad beer and drink selection - including seasonal and specialty drinks. The restaurant and bathrooms are clean and there is plenty of parking. You can come here and watch tv, listen to the fun music, or play nostalgic board games & I believe they now do events, though I haven't been to one. All in all not a bad spot with wonderful service and classic, nostalgic food!”
“I had a get experience here. I told Kylia a new employee it was my first time. He explained all my options or a custom pizza tailored to my eating taste.
I chose the bbq chicken gluten free pizza with peppers.
This pizza tasted better than most other pizza places. I enjoyed it. I was also asked if I wanted ranch dressing on top.
Would I recommend this restaurant?
Yes
Would I return?
Yes. I got a buy one get one free.”

He was so sweet, his customer service was delightful. I will definitely be coming back and ordering more! Thank you Marc!”
“I have never eaten at this burger place before and the food is great but I ran into your employee (Avant)and let me tell you I have never received such great customer service from a burger place not even IN & Out. Your customer service was better than the food my friend”
