Restaurants in Duarte

“Very good food , friendly and attentive waiters especially Antonio and Claude thank you for your hospitality”

“The sushi here was excellent. The rice in the two rolls had a hint of yuzu that really elevated the flavor. Yuzu can sometimes be overpowering, but the chef used it perfectly to enhance the overall taste. It really brought the entire roll together. I especially enjoyed the Crunchy Albacore Roll—the balance of flavors was spot on.
The chirashi bowl was also plentiful and a great value for the price. The fish was very fresh, but the standout part was the rice. I’ve honestly never had sushi rice quite like this before. In addition to the classic vinegary sushi rice flavor, there was a subtle hint of yuzu that added an extra layer of freshness. When paired with the fish, it made the whole experience feel even more elevated.
If you come between 5:00 and 6:30, they offer 15% off during happy hour, which makes the experience even better.
Good food, good value. I’ll definitely be coming back.”

“congratulation J&A's 25th anniversary! great food 🎉👍”

“Un lugar donde se come delicioso, un ambiente super agradable y el servicio esepcional,”

“True hidden gem.
Here’s a hint: Crab Fried Rice. This should be the FIRST thing you order here.

Once that’s out of the way, then you can try the Weeping Tiger.

Dining vibe is cozy and serene. I had a good time eating here.”

“Catered my Mom's 100th birthday party for 100+ guests. Got compliments on the taste & quality of the food from everyone myself included. Had 6 different dishes all enjoyed and demolished! Will cater there again our next venue. All staff very friendly and helpful especially Jun. Highly recommend!”

“Cheap Indian food. They have started dining indoors. Also a Indian grocery store.”

“Just wanted to say I enjoyed our time at Pizza Guys the Staff were very pleasant and accommodating. We were visiting from down the street at the rehab. Took our buddy to grab a bite to eat. Had a Blast Racing him up the street in his Wheely Chair. Lol
We Love you Eric”

“what i like about Cabreras 1st the awesome service. 2nd the best mexican food that is made with love. and what makes so good is the great music they have it's like eating at home which makes feel like your with family. keep up the great family feeling. oh and when I asked for something that's not on the menu you make it just like eating at home..”

“Their UBER YUMMY Spumoni ice cream and their EVEN YUMMIER Masterpiece shake!!!!”

“Excellence Test is seriously one of the BEST Hong Kong–style cafés in the entire SGV — maybe even all of SoCal! The moment you walk in, it feels like stepping straight back into Hong Kong. The flavors, the vibe, the comfort food… everything hits perfectly.
And the BBQ duck? Absolute showstopper. Crispy skin, juicy meat, packed with flavor — easily one of the best I’ve had outside of Hong Kong. If you love authentic Hong Kong café classics, this place is a MUST. I’m already looking forward to my next visit!”

“The cookies are pretty good, something I can buy elsewhere but it's fun popping in to Crumbl. I do think it's overpriced but I guess it could be worse. Definitely a fun place to go for a mid date snack.”

“It’s a very small place, you have to park on the side or front street of the location. Placed a pick up order. Greeted as soon as I walked in. It wasn’t busy, so my order was ready when I got there. I would love to next time dine in. The rolls I order were delicious, my favorite was their crawfish roll. Definitely, will come back when I’m in the area.”

“Met the owner. Super friendly, good natured person, perfectly suited for the hospitality industry!

I'm not normally a steak and eggs guy, but that's what Markos said he recommended today...HAND DOWN THE BEST STEAK I have ever had in my 50+ years of being a carnivore!!

Cafe de Olla (cinnamon brewed) was his mother's recipe. I had 3!! And funny coffee mug touches, tell you this guy loves to make people happy!

Very large portions too. My new 😍”

“The lamb swarmma plate was delicious. But the homemade baklava was supurb. It melted in my mouth.

I wish I lived closed than 90 miles from this delightful spot. It's clean & well kept. I'll stop anytime I'm going through the San Gabriel Valley.”

“LA comida y chef are muy especial. We love it! Who cares if the floor is a little dusty LA comida es fatastico! Fast service no long lines cafeteria style dishes tambien y frescas jugos , fresh juices y horchata Home made corn tortillas todos delicioso,I want to try everything. Chef, cook(s) begin their work day at around 4am daily I believe , that's how devoted that person Vidalito Is to his patrons. He surprised me and my husband ( we are elderly) with 2 extra burritos ( for free!) I could barely lift the bag! The burritos at thela paloma are stuffed to maximum capacity😋 they are big!! We have never actually been able to finish one at one sitting. I have never seen such output food production come out of a restaurante pequeno..little restaurant. The Spanish people The Spanish, Hispanic workers are simple easygoing & down to earth”

“This place is super clean! Not that feeling of greasy oil over coating the entire restaurant. The tables were very very clean! And hand sanitizer everywhere!

We've been here many times over past two years most excellent service!

We ordered

MSG warning. I did not feel it then but about half hour after I started to get an MSG headache. I do have sensitivity—I should have asked but forgot bc many places I have eaten recently do not use.

Chef special Walnut chicken. Superb 5/5
The batter coating was light. No oily greasy feeling or oil absorbed into batter. The honey mayo dressing was also perfect light

Mongolian beef. My husband gave it 4, me 3 stars. Because it was not really Mongolian beef. The correct name would be black pepper beef. It did not taste like Mongolian beef

Kung pao chicken 3 stars was not as good. It was passable. The chicken seemed like it was lightly coated in cornstarch then fried. But it was fried a bit too long bc chi he was very dry. Also the sauce was not great. Tasted also a bit in the burnt side. I like smoky but burnt not great. See pic. I like tre chicken more lightly cooked so it’s still a bit soft and juicy. Sauce also too burnt

We had ordered sesame chicken on a bed orange slices do taste s little like orange chicken. Delicious 4.5/5 stars

Rice better this time (our 4th)”

“I was there for a 30 yr old birthday with a friend and it was a nice atmosphere Kareoke was good lots of nice voices ( I can make a choir out of them) LOL. All in all it good. But I left early cause I don't like staying out to late so 10ish was a good time to go home.”

“Let's talk about Menudo again. We all know that Menudo is made from beef tripe, but it also needs a broth. The broth is normally made from beef bones and beef hocks. I have never found such ingredients in Menudo before.

I scooped out a beef foot and a beef hock from the takeaway bowl. There was black hair on the beef hock, which was unacceptable to me. I have a very particular sensitivity to hair, and I won't accept it.

Besides the hair on the hock, it was an extremely good Menudo. The flavor was good, not as good as Taco King on Gladstone St. in Azusa, but still good.

The Menudo in this restaurant was not small cut--it had big chunks of beef tripe, beef hock, and beef feet. Just enjoy it.”

“Deliciosos! Con un sabor exquisito!”

“Classic diner comfort food! Kids menu 😋”

“Unfortunately, major changes by new owners. I doubt I can give it another chance. My food was horrible! All of the original staff is gone. No entertainment. I wish them well. But, I'm moving on.”

“Surprise! This little restaurant serves very tasty and authentic flavored Mexican food. The restaurant is clean and friendly. I will visit this place and eat hear again. This place is under a new owner and they are doing a superb job, the previous owners let this place run down.”

“Simple double cheese burger and fries that tasted totally fine, besides it being $15 which you are supporting a small business but there's a lot of completive options in the area for that price.”

“Ordered food for my daughter’s school through DoorDash. I needed the sandwiches to be cut in thirds and the app wouldnt let me customize so I called the store directly. They were so lovely. Said no problem they would handle it. Not only did they cut them but they also called to me say the sandwiches were picked up on the way to my daughter’s school. They went above and beyond. I will definitely order with them again. Absolutely spot on customer service.”

“This place is so cute, delicious and healthy! Id come in just to talk to the family/owners. They had such a warm and welcoming vibe. The dad even helped me with a suggestion with my car. You don't get customer service like this any more.I hope this company does so well! They are all so nice!The smoothie bowl was soooo good too ;) Healthy and made with love”

“We got the ice cream cake with chocolate cake and chocolate chip and mint chip ice cream. The ice cream cake was good and fresh. The whip cream wasn’t that good but every else was good. We got great service. Everyone enjoyed the birthday cake. Ten out of ten recommend. They have plenty of parking and no public restroom.”

“great pick me up. 13131313131313131313131313131313”

“The Carne Asada Plate! Bomb!!”

“Anyone who's lived in Duarte forever, knows this place is a gem! I've been eating here with friends, family, even solo since 2010. This place has changed a lot, and seen some of my favorite staff members leave and grow, which is bittersweet. This location will always be my favorite, the quality is great, and they always seem to hire such caring and attentive staff. This location will always be my first choice, love ya'll : ).”

“So glad this location opened up! Friendly staff and the sandwiches are great! However, the last two times I visited, they were missing something. Last time they had no bread whatsoever, so I could only get a bowl or a wrap. Today, they were out of two types of breads.”

“Girl those creme cheese muffins with bacon are to die for! We are very pleased with our cakes too. You are a true artist.”

“❤️ Love it”

“Can't complain about anything food was great and the service even better. I told them that it was my first time there and they showed love. There fish is good too”

“I love Panda Express! Their food is always so fresh and delicious! I love their Tofu and Eggplant and Mushroom Chicken. The service was great! The staff is friendly and helpful.”

“Nice and smooth drive thru. Not so busy at the time in the afternoon on a Friday. And the burgers were made beautifully perfect. Looked just like the image, so thank you to those who work here! Great job, excellent cooking and food quality!”
