“We are Dennys late night regulars. We love the good food and service. CA club sandwich is my go to! Leslie, manager and server, is not only sweet but also considerate as we watched her make sure her colleague got into her truck safely after her shift. That’s a great manager! We’ll be dining here for many years to come.“

“Clean,Friendly great atmosphere“

“This morning I had an amazing waitress, her name is Michelle. She was pretty busy but she did a wonderful job giving good service and seemed positive instead of being stressed. She was on it and hustling. I was impressed to see her working at a fast pace and yet still giving her tables all the attention they needed. She is definitely a hardworking young lady.“

“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!“

“Good food and great service“

“Our server Abigail was very good and our food was very delicious. We love this dennys and friendly atmosphere Highly recommend this dennys“

“I don't know why this place is only 4.6 stars, should be 6.4! It's fantastic. Quaint little corner diner with great food and more importantly, an attentive and friendly staff. Even when they're super busy they stay on top of everything. Highly recommend!“

“The Thursday - Sunday late evening/overnight staff is amazing! I've been coming here pretty much weekly since July 2021 and they have become like family, especially our regular server Lupe. The night manager is cool and when he gets on the stove his food is out of this world! They got a new cook a few months ago and they are great with consistently producing comfort, especially the fries (and I'm VERY picky about my fry consistency).“

“Seems like they’re attempting a revival and it’s looking good! On this particular visit, wait time to be seated for two was reasonable. Our food came out promptly—fresh and hot! Our waitress was able to hustle to all her tables. Seems like new management is trying to give their waitresses and associates what they need to get their jobs done and the set up for success is evident! This location, if they keep in this direction, is BACK!“

“We love going there at least 3 to 4 times a week everyone is really friendly and welcoming especially the manager Velia Campos she told me about the air oven and we love the chicken highly recommend Whittier Denny’s“

“I always pass this restaurant on my bus route and usually I don’t have time to stop however I did today and I must say the customer service is amazing and I ordered the French toast combo with a side of potatoes O’Brian… First of all the French toast is so damn good. I didn’t even need syrup next, I’m gonna talk about these potatoes that was cooked to Perfection… They were crispy & soft they were amazing. My eggs were over medium perfect. I mean just perfect. I will definitely be returning. There aren’t as many good restaurants in this area, but this is definitely one of them and once again the customer service was amazing. The only reason why I did not give it five stars for the atmosphere is because I sat at the bar area and there was a lady who just would not get off of her phone. She had it on speaker and it was super loud. You would’ve thought she had it connected to surroundsound and that is the only reason why it was four stars for the atmosphere I just wish people would be a little more considerate so for that reason I actually cut my visit short and just packed my food up to go however, once again this restaurant is amazing super clean the restroom really clean and once again the customer service is truly truly amazing please go and visit this restaurant“

“Gutes Lokal zum Verweilen und pausieren“

“The menu is extensive and the parking area is easily accessible. Food was so tasty from my biscuits and gravy to my son's ham steak and even my wife's bulgogi bowl was amazing!I can't believe it's taken me this long to check this place out! A true Monrovia gem!“

“OMG I could not eat another bite... Shrimp Bay omelette.... awesome! Companion ordered Popeye special . Double awesome. My English muffin was toasted perfectly and hash browns also came out great . Did not know they were shakes there until we looked under desserts , voila there they were. Never going to a fast food for shakes again while Bun n Burger is open. Real ice cream homemade shakes $4 much larger than any you can get had to drive thru. My only complaint is that they close at 3:00 and aren't open 24/7 . Of course then I would be a much heavier person, so it's better the way it is . Can't wait to go back and try different meals!!

Parking: There's a small lot behind the restaurant . There's street parking but when it's crowded you have to park a little ways away . Worth it though .“

“I enjoy having breakfast with my friends Good food“

“It's warm and friendly. 🥰“

“Hands down the tastiest, most authentic Nopales burrito I have had that wasn't homemade. If you're considering trying Olguitas out, go for it. You won't regret it. The service was great as well, and they plated my meal really nicely, I was too hungry to take a picture lol.“

“I went to Xiaomei this morning to buy a takeout with three dishes and one soup, and then went to the nearby Great China Supermarket to buy some vegetables. I took out Xiaomei and retrieved my eight yuan and seventy cents, wrapped in Xiaomei. In my receipt, the lady at the Greater China counter refused to accept one of the $5 bills, saying it was a counterfeit bill. If it were normal, forget it, it would be a trivial matter. But then I thought again, I have been swallowing my anger all my life, and I am brave this time. I am not deceiving or intentionally blackmailing Xiaomei. As a result, the money was returned, but the words spoken to each other were not very kind. I went home and reflected on my words and deeds. I am a Buddhist, and I felt sad that I did not meet the standards required by gods and Buddhas. I am a new customer of Xiaomei. I was introduced by a friend. To be honest, Xiaomei’s food is indeed of high quality and low price. I should be more grateful. So I would like to apologize to Xiaomei!“

“So far everything I've tried has great flavor. Already recommended others to try.“

“Serves all day , breakfast, lunch & dinner!“

“The food was delicious, but the service was excellent. The gentleman who took my order was the best! After I placed an order, wanted to change it and he was so kind and understanding. And when I couldn't get exactly what I wanted, he added extras for me without charging me. I can tell they just want their customers to be happy. Great place!

Parking: Great parking for a city like Pasadena.“
