“Bit of a long wait but we expect that on a Sunday morning. All family members, including kids, cleaned their plates. My veggie omelette was solid. Reminded me of an omelette bar! But the real star of the show was the hashbrowns. I’ll be thinking about them for the rest of the week lol. Our server was very nice. Honestly, all staff were friendly. We’ll be back. Oh, and my kids both highly recommend the chocolate chip pancakes! 😌“

“I love the food here. Everything was delicious. We ordered the bread and butter, the kale salad, the clams and mussels, and spaghetti. The spaghetti noodles are made in-house. The butter is made in-house. The kale salad was soo good. The clams and mussels were in a very delicious sauce. We will be back!“

“The asparagus fries. Crispy & not greasy. You can appreciate the asparagus flavor. We split the Thai spicy salad. It was spicy, but the Thai basil & the peanut dressing were the stars. It didn't need the chicken. The best was the ribeye melt. The meat was cooked perfectly.The sourdough was crusted with parmesan. With a side of horseradish that was perfectly paired for this sandwich.“

“The food has to be experienced!! It’s high-end in taste and presentation, and the staff are professional but so fun that you feel like you’re with family. They are attentive to detail and will bend over backwards to make sure you have what you need. Service with a smile; this company is pure joy!“

“Wow, I was very impressed with the service here at this Danny's in Montebello, the service here was outstanding and the waitress Oly, she was on top of everything and took care of all our needs, I really appreciate and recommend coming here to all my friends and family... ❤️“

“How did this quirky gem evade my notice for five years?! I guess because they're only open Friday and Saturday. This may be the best restaurant in Pasadena. Inventive creole-inspired food. Everyone raved. Only thing I would change is to have it a little quieter. But our four-top could still converse well.“

“Elena was my waitress and I found her very professional and very pleasant, helping to add to my already very pleasant dining experience. The restaurant, staff, and food were overall very good. Me and my friend were very pleased and we plan to return again.“

“I've been going to Pieloon for a few years now and it is THE BEST restaurant in Downey! The food is always fabulous, the portions are large, the service is perfect! I've had appetizers, salads, pastas, steaks, burgers, sandwiches (I'm addicted to the BLT) and many of their specials. My family and I go now 2x a week and have trouble deciding what to get because it's all so good! And the pies...their pumpkin pie is the best I've ever had and the blueberry cheesecake is fabulous...but just wait until fresh peach pie season...I'll gain weight just thinking about it...the fresh peach is the best pie I've ever, EVER had! I love this place and the people who work there!! They're like family now!“

“Salad was tasty . I’ll be back to try burgers they looked amazing .“

“I’ve been 3 times in the past 3 weeks. Service and food is fantastic! Highly recommend Smitty’s Grill.“

“The food is amazing. I highly recommend this bistro.“

“It had been nearly 15 years since my last visit. I must say the decor is exactly as I remembered. Took 3 minutes to be seated then we were greeted by the most friendly and attentive waiter I’ve EVER had at any restaurant . I’m a huge lover of the cabbage salad so I gorged on a big bowl before dinner. I ordered a medium rare fillet and potato and it was cooked to perfection. I so wish I lived nearby as I would pay it a regular visit. I’m so glad the Clearmans Northwoods inn has not been changed.“

“The restaurant is elegantly decorated and has a comfortable atmosphere“

“It was wonderful and the food was delicious. The prices are very affordable. I will be coming back!“

“Ok Pastrami Dip is my suggested order to treat yourself here. BUT I saw a couple gentlemen get their order of pastrami and chili fries, oh, my. Gotta bring 3 friends to help me eat it all. Must try thst my next visit to The Hat. And free refills on drinks. Very generous.“

“Hello This is a good news/bad news review. We frequent Only Place quite often. We probably average about 3 times a month. But it's not unusual to go a couple times in a week. Your food and serving staff are excellent. Among our favorites are Whitney, Bronwyn, Hanna, Jose to name a few. Whitney is especially great! Now the bad news. We were in last Friday and were shocked with the unexpected bright lighting. It was uncomfortably bright. Nobody needs that much light!! And considering the average age of your customers it's even more important to keep the lighting flattering. We had to move from our booth because it was so disconcerting. Please please please change the bulbs in the overhead lights. If you have to squint to see the bulb it's TOO bright. We loved the family atmosphere of Only Place. The new lighting level ruins the atmosphere. We're begging you please return to the previous pleasing level. Thank you“

“The lunch experience at this Lazy Dog was phenomenal! The food was delicious and well portioned. Jacob, our waiter, provided stellar service and checked in on us to make sure everything was satisfactory. Definitely recommend coming here for a delicious meal in a chill and friendly environment.“

“Their Corned Beef sandwich and their Pastrami Sandwich...both DELICIOUS!!!!!“

“JB burgers is my family’s go to place for great hamburgers and fries. Their mixed breakfast burrito hits the spot every time. My kids love the pancakes over any other place. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone visiting Monrovia.“

“The best French food in LA. Chef is outstanding. Staff incredible. So yourself a favor. Go.“

“Stopped by this establishment because my normal breakfast spot was full to the gillz one particular morning. This establishment was pretty darn close to being full and seated us promptly. I was pleasantly surprised by the food which was spot on. I opted for the chicken and waffle which was hearty and sumptuous. While I still consider my go to breakfast spot to be Georgia's bun n burger up the road, I believe I'll keep this diner as a formidable reserve in my back pocket.“

“Nice atmosphere, and good service . Food was okay . Not sure what else to write in order for this to post 🤷🏻‍♀️“

“Honestly customer service 100% great. But the food was so bad I will never come here. This location needs to learn from Alhambra as far as food. And Alhambra needs to learn from this location about great customer service. UPDATE I WAS HERE RECENTLY AND EVERYTHING HAS BEEN FIXED WHAT A ICONIC LOS ANGELES CA OPTION THAT PEOPLE TAKE FOR GRANTED.“
