“This place is absolutely wonderful. This place gives wonderful food and wonderful atmosphere. I see some reviews on here that don’t make any sense. To rate this place less than 5 stars in absurd. Whoever writes a bad review about this place is a complete fool. I love Oink and Gobble!!!”

“As entreprenuers we travel the world and the unknown and get to have great experiences with people. Today we visited World Famous Grill in Downey and Hassan was the perfect gentleman. He helped us with a Kabob Combo Plate with hummus, rice salad and pita bread along with their famous Western Burger which was monstrous and delicious. Our daughter was also able to order chicken nuggets and fries as well. We appreciate these small businesses opposed to all the BIG corporations who usually say no to us asking for food. Thank you again World Famous Grill.”

“The sandwich and pistachio cold foam latte is pretty pricy. About $26. Tuna is pretty good, and seasoned well. I wish avocado was free, I would have liked some, but I’m already paying over $16 for the sandwich. I just really like this place because of the many charging outlets. There are about two per booth table. They also have Wi-Fi as well. Pop music in the background and they usually have a slideshow of rotating menu items on TV’s.”

We were looking for a restaurant that was sort of in the middle of us and friends in Whittier. And I am incredibly glad we find it. Their food is really good. The restaurant had tons of seating and I love the decor, and the staff is so nice! I ordered the lomo saltado, my husband ordered the aji de gallina and our friend ordered the chaufa marisco. We were all so happy with our meals!! And A+ for a kids menu! I cannot wait to go back the next time I am in town.”

9234 Lakewood Blvd, Downey

“After my boyfriend took me here the first time, I am now officially obsessed with this place and I want him to take me back every time I get the craving for Mediterranean food ? I've only gotten the chicken kabob wraps (twice) but they're sooooo good. The pita bread is warm and soft, the chicken is tender and flavorful, and the potato chips they come with are spiced in the best way and sometimes crispy, sometimes soft (tbh I like my potatoes both ways so I'm not complaining). There's an outdoor dining area that kinda has romantic vibes and it's really nice to sit outside on a pretty day. The staff have always been nice so far and the service is reasonably fast, plus bonus points bc they have a restroom. I can almost guarantee that your hands will be a saucy mess when you're done with your food (well, at least if you get the wraps ?), so it's great that you can wash your hands! Love this place ?”

Gloria's Cocina Mexicana 7401 Florence Ave, Downey Mexican • $$
7401 Florence Ave, Downey

“I love the molcajete at this place and their handmade tortillas. The only bad thing is that for takeout they charge you an extra charge for packing your molcajete with the rice and beans separately. It's absurd because that dish is not served all together and for takeout. It should be the same without any extra charge in the head, it is possible to deliver a molcajete to take away in a single container, everything mixed apart that they use a small plate where all the sauce is in the bag and all the guacamole mixed with everything, Mr. Manager, be careful, the customers deserve the same quality both in the restaurant and for takeaway, they charge us the same, their dishes must be served in the same way without abusing the customer”

They have really good food and I always try something new I love their burrito roll and their sukiyaki bowl can't wait to try takoyaki there for the first time and I find the atmosphere pleasing it's not too loud and I can enjoy food and time with my family. Only bummer for me was when the menu changed and sukiyaki was taken off the bento box but it pushed me to try new things.”
