Clearman's North Woods Inn, La Mirada

I've dined at Northwoods any time I'm close for over 40 years. Quality was way down on the steak for steak lunch but the cost was only $20. I love the salads and cheese toast. I hope they increase the prices and improve quality because low price low quality will just drive them out of business.

We got sat in the back corner and didn't even get any water for 10-15 minutes until I walked back up to the front asking for some kind of help.

Finally ordered a 9oz steak and the combo platter (steak, seafood, and chicken). The initial salads and bread were pretty good together.

The steak (according to my father) was fine but a bit dry. He enjoyed eating the baked potato more.

I was rather disappointed by the combo platter since you'd think you'd get more than 2 small scallops but I guess that's on me for not asking. The steak was also a bit dry but tasted fine. The fried chicken was completely dry and I ended up having to take it home because I couldn't see myself finishing it. I also found the baked potato to be the star of the plate.

Overall, a rather poor experience after having to pay 100 dollars. The restaurant itself looked nice and had a nice atmosphere. However, felt that the current prices and service is simply just not worth the price.

We have lunch here after working on float building every year with several families. It has been our New Years Eve tradition since my son was around 6 years old. Great ambiance and a nice way to bring the New Year in. The quality of their food and service has not changed over time. You still get free peanuts 🥜. Don't forget to take a few pictures under the moose head and by the Christmas tree 😉.

This place is old school great. My family and now friends have come here and to the other Clearman’s restaurants and they haven’t changed a bit. Tasty steaks and other dishes and it’s all included! Steak or fish or chicken, potato, rice, salads and the famous, delicious cheese bread. Their desserts are awesome. So glad this awesome place is still here after all these years. Love it.

Server handed everything to my husband at the end of the table to pass down, drinks, plates etc....and she had no personality, it took alot to get a smile from her. Service is not what it used to be. Hostess could smiled as well. We have been coming here since they opened and used to go to the one in Rosemead when I was little.

The food here is really good. I really enjoyed my small plate steak plate I ordered from here. I was able to finish it myself.

The freshly ground hamburger steak is actually a lot for one person and could be enough for 2 people if its shared.

The clearman's Tropical Punch cocktail was really tasty. Perfect for a good dinner like this. 😍
I appreciate the service here 🙏..Thank You.

Nice facility. Food is nothing special, good basic food with ok sized servings. It was very slow very few customers for the size of this place and yet, Service seemed distracted and not coordinated among staff.

I love the atmosphere of this place as it is very cozy feeling! The staff is excellent and super friendly. I liked my meal but it honestly could have been better. The scallops and baked potato were amazing! But the fried chicken lacked flavor and so did the steak. On top of that it tasted charred and was super tough. Otherwise it was a pleasant experience.
