Restaurants in El Monte

“Love love love the cucadachaShrimp ....I'm sure I misspelled but all their shrimp are bomb and shrimp cocktails as well. My only complaint is Please UPDATE your online menu .....I ordered for my company and WOW we went off of the listed prices on menu on websiteDefinitely not updated , and increased by 2 to 3 dollars , I understand things are going up but then I as a customer should be able to count on the business to keep me updated on NEW PRICES , because your food is delicious ? people will still pay but kinda unfair to have that surprise when u get the final bill and it's 50 bucks more then calculated from online prices .Just a friendly suggestion, I love to refer people . Also small tacos not worth the price at all”

“I cannot say enough about how much I loved this restaurant. The service was lovely, the food was INSANE, the drinks were so good. I cannot insist enough that you need to try this restaurant. So so so good.”

“We love this place, food it’s always delicious and all the waitresses are really nice, food takes some time to get to the table, BUT it’s sooooo worth it and we ain’t complaining.”

“The duck was really really good very authentic. We're been coming here for many years but noticed the owner seems changed. No sure if that's the case but the duck taste even better than before. You need to call them ahead for them to prep so you don't have to wait. I recommend you to give it a try!”

“The service is very fast and the portion sizes were very generous! The food is very fresh, and usually if they are out, it'll take them about 10 minutes to steam a new batch. The chicken feet is usually spicy at other restaurants, but this one has a sweeter taste, which is not my preference. The salty egg bun is literally a gooey liquid center, highly recommended!”

“It's pizza night and we chose to munch at Baby bros. I ordered a couple times for delivery and we wanted to dine-in this time. Anyways, it was pretty calm for a Friday evening which was great! It's not too big inside. I do like the big TVs they have and it seems really clean inside as well. Service was pretty fast and semi-friendly. Now let's get to the main event- the food! We got a family bundle with 1 large topping pizza and potatoes that look like Shakeys mojos. The potatoes were pretty good. The pizza was delicious! Sauce to cheese ratio was perfect. We added lemon pepper wings and those are pretty close to Wing stop lemon pepper wings. Overall this place is a great place for a small friendly gathering. The only thing that wasn't fun to experience was the outside parking. That is just a disclaimer. Tight, parking lot, minimal parking offered.”

“This was the spot back in the days. Now it's a pure Spanish club. Nothing wrong with that but I member back in the 90s when it was better. I haven't been in años but it's not my thing anymore. If ur 50 and still clubbing them your gonna be alone forever”

“Food @ La Borracha is bomb! Katie is my favorite server, she’s always friendly and on top of it! It can get really loud, busy, and crazy on weekends, so if you’re looking for something more chill the other Progress better suits your ”

“Love this place, used to go as a kid. Been out of state for 24 yrs. Recently ordered for pick up the food is still delicious and priced wellVegetarian options: The stars is super nice”

“THERE'S SOME REAL GOOD FOOD COMING OUT OF THIS PLACE. Rule #1 Never follow the advice of any reviewer that will base for quality in customer service or their experience with a staff member. I've read some reviews here complaining about the staff and I looked at the source and immediately thought that there was a definite language barrier that happened here and unfortunately this place was unfairly rated.That said. I'm here to give my recommendations and just the few items I've tried. Must have. Char Sui pork, Duck, chicken string beans and the braised pork belly. I can't wait to return to try more dishes, in certain they are just as fantastic. Flavors are authentic to the region and are not doctored for the American palette. Service was great. The 3 ladies in the front were very nice and after I was done with my meal, they packed the left over up for me and came back with samples of other items. Great experience and I highly recommend.”

“We love coming here for the happy hour menu, it's always priced right and the food is always sufficient for two people. Staff is always responsive and food comes out quickly. Ceviche and shrimp tacos are our favorite. The bar area is pretty loud but that just shows my age lol. The molcajete is one of our favorite's as well.”

“Love coming here! We've been coming here for years now! The Molcajete and the chicken tacos are the way to go! The food is flavored very well and the salsas are ‍! It's worth the money!”

“Inside atmosphere is greatThe outside atmosphere should not represent inside one. Service was great, food was good and hot and the code to the restroom was given without hesitation. Thanks Yoshinoya”

“Amazing! Their portions of fruit are huge and well priced, the agua frescas super yummy, and the service is always great. And just to clarify the bionicos don't have papaya. They have mango, pineapple, cucumber, jicama, and cantaloupe. And the fruit is always fresh”

“The shrimp cocktails were so delicious. Soft tacos were good, too. Broken seats are very old furniture booths. The owner was busy on her phone earpiece to give us her full attention I felt.Kid-friendliness: I saw high chairs”

“Food is slightly above average overall. The use of paper plates is quite odd, but not a dealbreaker. Looking at the glass half full, I'd rather have a paper plate than a dirty one. Place is quite small so it's pretty much crowded when I went. We were there early so we were able to get a seat. The owner let us know that they had a reservation in about 90 minutes for that table so we would need to finish before then. It took about 45 minutes for everything to be delivered to us. First dish came about 20 mins in and last dish coming out around the 45 mins mark. We were eating it along the way so it was enough time to finish. Cleanliness is about at a 4/5. The restroom was cleaner than I expected when I arrived, but after a couple visits from the drunk table behind us, it was quite nasty. I feel sorry for the customers later on in the evening.Overall, I don't regret trying this place, but it didn't really have that wow factor to me personally to make me must go back.”

“Thursday12/7/23 Dinner at Quan De 7 Mon restaurant in El Monte with my cousin and friend Jimmy. Enjoying lots of my cravings: grilled shrimps, baby clams, hot pot, and fried tofu with shredded dried pork and satay green onions. It hits multiple spots in my tummy and for sure I’ll be sleeping with a big smile tonight. I am blessed and know when I look back on this day, it would be one of many joyous times.Service staffs were friendly and attentive.Asian bar & grill environment.David YoungRestaurant Enthusiast”

“This place was poppin when I came which explains for the long wait. The chicken was juicy and crispy at the same time. We couldn't finish... but we did spend $35 for just the two of us”

“I came to eat at pollo loco after the gym. I got a 2 PC meal all thighs with broccoli and loco salad and my woman got a double avocado salad. I love coming in the morning because I see the original employees that helped open El Pollo Loco. I was one of them. Salmon always cooks his chicken on point. It's juicy in the inside and on the outside nice and crunchy on the skin. Brenda always with a big smile. Martha is always fast on her line. I got to give to Rosie as well. She has held Pollo Loco for years. I miss the people I started with. They all great employees. I always come back and show the love to them.”
