“Always great to come back and visit this place. Food was awesome and the staff was nice. Food came but the drinks never came out, and they never came back to ask if anything else was needed like to go box's or a quick greet making sure the food was how it's suppose to be. other then that everything was awesome.“
“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.“
“Me and my brother stumbled into this place cause we both wanted something different to eat and we weren't too sure what to think about this place at first, menu on the wall like many others locations but then the host gave us a run down of the menu. Just like my brother's to order the same thing. They have a couple different versions of a wet burrito and we had the mild version and over all the burrito was well purport-ion and the sauce was really good too. The atmosphere felt a bit lost but if you want to have good food and watch a game on the tube, check out this local place.“
“This bar has all the right games at any given time. Great place! Football playoffs were showing on every TV outside of the bar. Another the end. One maybe two screens were dialed to NASCAR. For the most part, Our server was attentive and she would ask us how are doing. Her instinct The menu was substantial. I choose the dip if I remember correctly. Awesome sandwich. The nacho were LOADED with various meats and copious amounts of cheese. Worth checking out if are visiting Whittier.“
“My Dad and I have gone there twice so far and will definitely be returning. The service was perfect. Food and drinks are brought to your bay in a timely manner. Help with the simulator was available throughout the entire reservation. I recommend this place for friends, family, or even individual practice.“
“Our server was top notch, very aware of our table....a joy to have as wait staff! Food was incredible, prep was top notch, portion sizes were varied. General atmosphere was tiki lounge lite, a fun, Cali casual/island theme very comfy. Bartender knew her way around mixology....no complaints!“
“Perfection. This tiny Monrovia brewery produces the world's premier beers. The sour crumble seasonals are world-class incredible. Their Starhazer IPA is immaculate. Help yourself to free, fresh popcorn. This place has it all! Go. See. Taste....N' don't forget to tip your tap professional.“
“My husband was staying at usc hospital and me and my son would pass by everyday to go to our hotel and one day we stopped and ate an early dinner. The service was exceptional and everyone was really nice and attentive. The Mac and cheese bites were my favorite appetizer!! So good. The pizza I had was really good and my son said his pasta was good. The older gentleman with the accent was really sweet. Under the circumstances that we found this place wasn’t great, but glad we could sit and enjoy a great meal at a great place and people. Thank you!“
“I give 3 stars for food because I'm not sure if they sold food, I just went for a few drinks with my friends. The service was excellent, the people were very smiling and friendly. The place is quiet and I really liked its theme. It's my first time going and I will definitely return.“
“Stopped by with my friends for dinner. They sat us quickly, and we were able to watch the game as we waited for our order to be taken. Service was quick and friendly. We ordered the Al Pastor Pizza, The Alfredo Pizza, and the Downey Special. It was delicious and super cheesy! Will be coming back again.Parking: Plenty of parking is available in front of the location in their own private lot. Parking is free.“
“Stop by here on a Saturday afternoon while scouting for the Kaiser Vision Essentials building that was supposedly located nearby and on top of that, was also an excuse to use the Metro Rail to gauge the walking distance between the station and both of these businesses. The address notes it as being located on Catalina Ave so I was under the impression that the business 'front' would be facing the street like how the other businesses that line up the corner closest to the Colorado Blvd but it's not. It's actually wedged between a take out American BBQ restaurant and an open air parking lot. On the side of the building that belongs to the same BBQ restaurant is a 12x12 tiny ass logo on the building with an arrow pointing you down this non-descript alleyway. This non-descript alleyway looks like any other industrial alleyway: grey concrete, surrounded by open-ring fences, telephone poles, and random ass vehicles parked on the side closest to the open air parking lot. Once you've walked down far enough, there's a small black signage to your left pointing to a non-descriptive black building where there's a small flight of stairs that you walk down and that's T Boyle Tavern. Once inside, you're greeted with this woodsy, rustic inn type of decor. Front of bar is quite literally directly in front of you as you walk down the flight of stairs. There are several wooden high top tables and chairs just before you reach the bar area. TV's line that entire wall plus to the two sides of the establishment that are tuned into sports. Men's restrooms are to the left 'corner' from the front entrance and women's restrooms are to the right 'corner' from the front entrance. There's a small flight of stairs on the women's restrooms side that leads up to presumably a part of the open air parking lot. Well gins are $6, while well whiskeys and well vodkas are $12. To the right of the bar area are some TV's that lists the beers that they have on tap for the week. They ranged between $6-10. They serve regular food, mostly finger foods like burgers, sandwiches, fries, amd chicken fingers. The menu will be given to you when you head up to the front of bar. I ordered a Bourbon Old Fashioned, a Vodka Soda and a Gin and Tonic. Then I ordered a beer whose name I forgot off the TV menu. I think they tasted fine. They can't make the 'fancier' cocktails because they don't have the ingredients for them so if that's your cup of tea, this is not your spot for that. This is more of a beers on tap with some basic cocktails and well drinks. Ambiance. This place feels like one of those spots that you'd take large groups of friends amd family to watch sports and knock back a few brewski's. It was quite dead in the afternoon save for a few elderly family groups present that were apparently relatives of the bartenders. They take credit cards. Enough said. Service. The male bartenders seemed friendly enough. Parking. I don't normally talk about parking but because this place is located in Pasadena, where there's more parking restrictions relative to other areas, you'd want to know where you can park cheaply or free, ideally. Street parking lining up and down Catalina Ave are two hours max between 9AM-6PM. Any time after that should be free. There's the open air parking lot that is not cheap but not DTLA expensive. I didn't catch a good glimpse of the rates unfortunately but I vaguely recall it being stupid expensive for just a few minutes of parking but if you pay the daily rate maximum, it's in the high single digits. All in all, I think it's better to just take the Metro Rail and take the scenic 20-minute walk over to the place than to drive here, at least during the day time. Not too sure how the area would look later at night. I came away with a pretty positive experience of this place and would probably stop by again to try out their food on my next visit.“
“They have multiple large screens around the dining room and in patio. Lots of fun to watch your favorite team with friends. Since they're owned by North Woods Inn, they serve some of the same foods, including red cabbage and Iceberg lettuce with blue cheese dressing salads and their incredible cheese bread (at a lower price).The price I'm quoting below, per person includes one or two drinks (alcohol).Parking: Never a problem getting a spot, even when they're busy.“
“This place has it all. Beautiful little hole in the wall with the nicest staff. Came her with family once and once with friends. Both experiences were impeccable. Had a nice sunday morning breakfast with the family and got the chilaquilas with green sauce. (I need to go back to try the red, but there's no way it's better than green.) My 90yo grandfather even liked the food even though he hates everything.Then came once with some friends. Too afraid to sing karaoke, but whether you're crying about the one that got away or partying it up south of the border, you'll get a boisterous uproar from the crowd.I'm definitely coming back next time I'm in town. Waitresses are cute, too.“
“Let me start by saying this is one of my favorite bars the service is phenomenal Chris big Mike Joanna best friend and the new girl Chantel aka Alex is amazing the bar is extremely clean staff is friendly and know what you like for me it’s like a 4.5 out of 5 but 100% will be a 5 if they had twisted tea thank you 626 bar for a good time all the time“
“Lots of activities take place it's not your typical bar. Monday nights feature country line dancing for all levels from beginners to advanced, trivia and karaoke nights plus live music on the weekends, located in Old Town Monrovia free public parking in lots with less than a 5 minute walk.“
“Check this place out whether you're a professional or want to play for fun with family and friends! (All ages!) Pool tables are in great condition. It's CASH ONLY $7/hr for one person or $12/hr for two or more people on a table. This place looks a thousand times better after the remodel and has a very chill vibe. Loooove the lighting and portraits they have on their walls. Their hours may be a bit off because they're having issues with the city and a zoning code, as of now they're open 2pm-1am but I believe will start closing at 10pm in the near future (hopefully not for long). You can always call and ask ahead of time about hours or how busy it is. They have a few new lady bartenders that are very nice and provide great costumer service. Also, cue repair Monday-Wednesday with Jose. It starts getting busy at night so definitely stop by before 7:30pm to grab a table on time, you might get lucky anytime after or get stuck on the waiting list for awhile but you can always grab a beer or soda and play darts while you wait. They don't serve food but you're welcome to bring outside food and eat by the bar (no food by the pool tables). They also don't allow outside drinks but they do sell bottled water, soda, bottled beer and HOPEFULLY beer on tap once they finish repairing the taps. Overall, amazing place to have a great time and play some pool!“
“It was a blast! We got invited to a birthday party here, the place is not too huge but also not small. I think there were 40-50 people, they first served appetizers in each table with drinks. The food was great served buffet style and when everyone were done there were still a lot of food on the table. The sound system was provided by the host's family, they just brought a small strobe light, mic and because the place is not too big a small a loud speaker made it through. The only issue I had was the restroom - there is only 1 shared male/female restroom , no problem sharing with men but you will always see a line, so be prepared to hold it until it's all clear, lol!. Parking is free across the street.“
“My friend and i came here on Christmas Day and i was so glad they were open.Andrew is our bartender and he was very attentive to all our orders. He made every drink we ordered and they were actually very satisfying. The portions were all right and they tasted exactly as how they should.Food choices were limited to chips but there is a satisfying amount of entertainment from dart boards, a jukebox and a pool table. The patrons that come here are pretty mellow and not like the crazy loud obnoxious crowds that I run into at some bars.You can go for a smoke in the back where there are tables, chairs and ashtrays to use.The restrooms were clean and well maintained.Lots of parking in the back through Wells Fargo Bank.“
“Decent experience at this place. I had a good time drinking a couple of beers and chatting with the bartender.There are 2 pool tables and a dart board for entertainment. There is also a lot of seating at the bar.The price are pretty standard.By reading some of the reviews, I feel like checking out taco Tuesday would be a good idea. If I ever happen to stop at this place again, I'll try to make it a Tuesday.Overall, this place seemed like an okay bar.“
“We live nearby, and on our way home one night, decided to stop in for a quick beverage. There were only a few people inside, but it was nice for us after having been in a noisy crowded place earlier.The music was at a nice volume, with a great 70' to 80's Playlist. Our bartender was Sal. Very nice guy. They have Guinness, which is my favorite, & they have a good selection of other beers at reasonable prices. They have dart boards & pool tables. Very friendly locals vibe. ?“
“This place is a serious good time. A word to the wise, the karaoke is deceiving, the pros make it look super easy but it's far from it. There's only instrumental to accompany you with minimal cues. I failed miserably at my rendition of Shoop from award winning artists Salt-N-Pepa. I would have been mortified if not for the stop light shot I had taken just before. Warning No.2, if you come here on your birthday you will have to take one of these stop light shots (3 of em) in a consecutive fashion whilst the whole bar sings happy birthday to you. All in all, a great night with a chill crowd. The Micheladas are delicious and made to your spice preference. The bartenders are all really nice and friendly. 10/10 will return and hopefully recoup my honor in the karaoke.“
“Where do I begin. The bartenders, such kind people. The owners, I had the pleasure of meeting them and they were such a pleasure. The atmosphere is great, the artwork on the walls is nice, well lit outside area with TVs and space heaters so you can have a smoke with your drink, and the spacing of the tables from the pool tables. Was perfect And there's pool tables! Not one or two, enough for there to be competitive and friendly games going on at the same time. They're kept in good condition, proper size. And the patrons are always keeping the juke Jams flowing... 5 stars, 11/10 would recommend.“
“Great place with a revolving selection of beer!! If you enjoy beer, they have one for you. The service is fantastic!! Huge shoutout to Mayra, MJ, Stephanie, Jo, Sistina and Mary!! Thank you!! They do a great job attending you and welcoming you. Plenty of screens to catch a game and play a game of billards. Cheers!!“
“Usually, when we’re traveling we’ll check out different places. This trip, we came to Kings Row twice!! Great grub (I had the fish and chips, and next trip had a burger), nice variety of local micro beers on tap. Order on your phone but the staff was great in following up with us … saw they had outdoor seating available … will go back next time in the area.“
“Finally, I had the opportunity to try islands out and tried the Hawaiian chicken sandwich and the mini burgers with fries. Both were really good, the food is good but a bit on the pricey side in my opinion but other than that I have no complaints.“
“I live literally around the corner from this bar my first time stopping in like the atmosphere for the most part the people are very friendly I forget our bartender's name but she was pretty awesome I think I would make this my bar of choice“
“Came here by chance because I forgot to make a reservation for Gyu-Kaku but I honestly loved the food here! The atmosphere was perfect the food was delicious and it came out very quickly. The waitress was also very nice. 5 stars! Would come again!“
“Lots of draft beer if you like draft beer no hard alcohol necessarilyLittle Joe's next door and they used to bring it to you in the bar to eat there food is good it's getting ready to open again.Diomand pool tables are nice.Good music system.“
“Came here during a week night where they had a game on their big screen in the back patio. Loved how they have patio sectional furniture along with other furniture. Makes you feel right at home!My friend and I shared a huge burrito and got some drinks. The prices were reasonable. If you want water, it's self-serve where there are pitchers and cups on a table.There was a raffle going on as well, and we won a bobblehead. The guy running the raffle made everything so fun and interactive. And he has such an adorable and friendly sharpei pup. The servers did great checking up on us.Free parking in the back lot.Parking: Free parking in the back lot“
“It was a clean bar, a bar where u can just chill and throw back a few. It felt like a very local bar bc of the atmosphere every body knew everybody and they where having a pool tournament it seemed like but I will definitely be back. I'm New to the area so to find a place like this comfortable it's rare.“
“I've been coming here for over 8yrs.... Unfortunately I went yesterday 12/11/23 and I ended up getting food poisoning, the service was terrible and you have nothing but a bunch of drunk idiots fighting at the bar. Even the owner got a bloody eye one time I was there. This place can be great just needs a lot, a lot of work with service food and the atmosphere plus security. I got the pasta with buffalo chicken. That's what got me sick.“
“So far, everything I have tried has been a hit except the campechana. They had no problem taking it back and offered something else in return. From the breakfast burrito to the octopus, everything has been pleasant. To my coffee lovers, you must try the CAFÉ DE OLLA they offer and the desert they serve.Wheelchair accessibility: Side ramp“
“This place gave me the feel of Del Rae in Pico Rivera. Love the atmosphere, service was excellent. No hovering over my table. Food was delicious. Fell in love with the cheesecake dessert! I will definitely return when I am back in the area. It has an old time feel that you have to experience.“
“My kids and I love coming here, their boneless and bone in wings are so delicious! Their Buffalo sauce is just right!! I get my usual steak w/ parmesian cheese and shrimp dinner, so delicious, I order it all the time!! Always great service even if we just sit at the bar with the hubby, always a great atmosphere with kids or no kids! It's our Go to place for a very long time now! Thank you for the great service and great food!“
“Came to play pool with the fam bam and it was a really cool vibe on a Monday! Beer and wine only. Food was good - huge selection and great prices. They have 3 pool tables at $1.50 a game, darts and karaoke. The service is great! The girls are super sweet, friendly, and pretty too! Cool vibe - we will be back!“
“Had not been here in years, so much fun, it was a weekday, still had an ok amount of people, much more relaxed than a game day or weekend. Friendly attentive staff, very clear restrooms, tons of parking in the back, and in the front if it’s not a weekend. Will return and recommend.Kid-friendliness: Not kid friendly it’s a bar“
“Well Hello to the person that may be reading this review.! you might drive right past this place if you live in the area some may think it's just a Bar only but it's not it's also a Restaurant too and believe it or not the Food Is Amazing, might put you to shock. I had the Philly Cheese Steak with homemade Fries with that homemade Aioli Sauce to dip my fries with, oh! man so good also try out their Nachos and them Wings Mango Habanero bomb also Lemon Pepper much more food I need to try. The Staff is very friendly and welcoming haven't had any issues they do sell alcohol so if your not to big of a fan on beer they have liquor you can get your mix drinks on. They have TVs music and certain days they have a live Band playing. So maybe one day swing by and give it a shot, don't want to miss out.“
“I hadn't been to this location in about 10 years. Back then it was a total dive bar with "fichera" girls. This time I experienced a fairly nice bar while I watched both the Canelo vs. GGG Trilogy boxing match and the Dodgers vs. Giants baseball game simultaneously. The waitresses and bartenders were very nice. I'll definitely keep this place in mind for watching future sports events. Otherwise, parking for this location isn't easy to come by and it's not a pick up joint. The clientele was pretty much exclusively middle aged Mexican men.“
“Overall it was a pleasant experience...our busser/server was above par. There was a lot of food our group ordered...I will only mention the huevos rancheros...a bit on the salty side but that was my taste. Not sure for others. I normally do not use salt for my meals at home. So I think it was just me.“
“We were in town for business and stopped in for a few beverages. Ms. Holly was incredible! Very personable and friendly and welcoming! Asked our names and actually remembered them! Highly recommend! We will be back this week for sure!!Heather and Mike Klein (Phoenix, AZ)“

“Post 280 is an old school veterans post. It's got that 60/70s look and feel, just what some of us are looking for. Good beer, good service, good people. Some posts are not so welcoming and accommodating, not the case with this post. I was impressed with all their innovations and creativity with new events, fundraisers, and trying to reopen which are all challenging now. The bar manager Lisa truly makes this place the spot I want to hang out in. Thank you from Post 180. Your always welcome to stop by our post anytime.“
“Oh. So. Good. Food? Check! Ambience? Meh. Service? Fantastic! Two outta' three is super. Their homemade tortillas are amazing--find a way to have those!--as is their homemade chipotle (that's chi-pote-lay, not chi-pole-tay, folks) sauce. DAYUM. Need I say more? No. Go there. Eat. You'll be glad (or gassy) you did!“
“First time to this Applebee's and really enjoyed the service and food there. Although having to wait for the long wait time to get inside overall still worth it! Manager and hostesses were awesome and able to accommodate us while waiting! Able to get delicious food at an affordable price! I recommend the adios drink and the 2 plates for $26 where you can start off with one app and 2 entrees for a reasonable price! Amado made our night a memorable experience! Props to him for his energy and service!“
“The owner gave us an awesome experience.?Will come back for sure!Gave us welcome shots also to enjoy our first-time visit.Charged us 5 drinks and food.Gave us huge discounts. Gladly, we came here instead of BWW. The owner even put the Kings hockey game and UFC fight on for us to watch.“

“Stopped in for a cold beverage whilst out for a run with friends. The bartender was very friendly, and the other patrons all appeared to be in a good mood. Upon completing our run, several people from my group went back to eat lunch. Sadly, I wasn't able to join them. The menu looked great!“
“By far, the best experience I've EVER had at any Applebee's Restaurant location. The Whole service was amazing, and the food was great. Make sure to request Diego as a server, he was amazing. Definitely made my family's night, so attentive. I usually never write reviews but his service was worth it, I'de give this store 20 starts if I could just based off this gentleman.“
“I love this place!! I can't believed I lived 1/2 a mile away for 20 years and just started coming!! The atmosphere is so great! You can be 21 or 91 and it's all love. They have karaoke every night and very low prices...Hands down the bar in Downey and we a lot!“
“Super cool little spot! Not much people there when we went because there wasn't a game going on. However we still had fun. We played billiards and darts, and the owners were super friendly and helped us out with how to play. Everyone else there was friendly as well. When we are back in the area we'll be back again!“
