“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 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!“

“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.“

“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!“

“Delicious !! Enjoyed the East Los atmosphere..😋💞“

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

“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“

“What a wonderful surprise! This small, quaint spot is serving up some seriously delicious food. I came specifically for the Baja-style fish tacos, and they did not disappoint. The fish was perfectly crispy, lightly battered, and served in generously sized tacos topped with fresh cabbage and flavorful toppings that brought everything together.
I also tried the burger, which was packed with flavor and cooked just right. The service was friendly, fast, and welcoming, making the entire experience even better.
From what I understand, this is a family-owned restaurant, and that personal touch really shows. Be sure to check their website for menu updates, as they have some exciting new items coming soon. I'll definitely be back to see what's next!“

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

“Rosendo was our server he was polite , he deliveries the food faster and exacly We ordered , he always come back and asking if we need it something , he care of all the time , and restroom always are super clean . We recomend this denny 100 % . Thank you“

“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.“

“Stopped in to have a few drinks while visiting LA. I sat at the bar and both bartenders were friendly and attentive. The restaurant and restrooms were both clean.

My second visit was also great. We had to wait 20 minutes for a table on a busy Friday evening around 7:00.

The fish and chips were awesome. Crispy hot fish.“

“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“

“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.“

“I had the pleasure of dining at Denny’s in South Gate last Sunday, and I must say, it was an exceptional experience, largely thanks to our server, Jessica, and the outstanding management team. From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with warm smiles and a welcoming atmosphere. Jessica, our server for the evening, made us feel right at home. She was attentive, friendly, and knowledgeable about the menu. Her recommendations were spot-on, and she ensured that our drinks were always topped up and our orders arrived promptly. What truly impressed me was Jessica’s dedication to ensuring our dining experience was perfect. She went above and beyond to accommodate our requests, making sure our food was prepared exactly as we wanted it. Her attention to detail and genuine concern for our satisfaction were evident throughout the meal. The management team at Denny’s South Gate deserves special recognition as well. They maintained a well-organized and clean restaurant, and it was evident that they prioritize customer satisfaction. It’s clear that they have instilled a culture of excellence among their staff, and it reflects in the exceptional service we received. The food at Denny’s was delicious, and the overall atmosphere was pleasant. However, it was the outstanding service provided by Jessica and the effective management that truly made our visit memorable. I would highly recommend Denny’s in South Gate to anyone looking for a fantastic dining experience. With professionals like Jessica and a top-notch management team, you’re guaranteed to have a wonderful time. Kudos to them for their dedication to delivering excellence in hospitality!“
