“The second location I have been to, and compared to the first in Temple City this place was not quite as good. The main setback is the portion size which is quite small. The interior is clean and well decorated, and staff are friendly and helpful. The food quality is good and tasty.“

“We stumbled upon Bee’s Knees by accident for breakfast and there was a parking spot right in front just waiting for us. It was a delicious last meal and great find before heading to the airport to end our lovely spring break in Newport Beach. Breakfast was delicious, the staff was extremely kind, the weather on the patio was perfect. We enjoyed every bite, thank you so much!“
