50 Best American Restaurants near La Puente

“When we told drive-through order-taker Aaliyah this was our first ever In-N-Out visit she went out of her way to carefully explain the menu. At the drive up window Xley had already been alerted to our newby status and was over-the-top helpful, explaining we were lucky that Elaine (the best grill cook) was making our order and thanking us for choosing their store for our first visit. As we were eating in their picnic area, Aaliyah came by to make sure we were happy with our food (we were!) and to thank us for our business. Absolutely 5 stars!“

“Great BBQ. Tender enough brisket and pork ribs, but rather bland and flavorless, needed BBQ sauce for a kick of flavor which they provide in small servings. Very local coded, decent small place but can get pretty hot under the weather. Homey and feels small but has pretty great deals with InKind.“

“Breakfast burritos were amazing!“

“We had a group of 24 people, and the experience was outstanding from start to finish. Luis was excellent—he went above and beyond to accommodate us on very short notice, which is no small task for a group our size. He arranged a private room for us, making the gathering feel both comfortable and well-organized.
What really stood out was how quickly everything came together. The food arrived impressively fast, and the service never missed a beat despite the large party. Luis and the team made sure everyone was taken care of, and the whole experience felt smooth and effortless.
Highly recommend for large groups or special gatherings—great service, great coordination, and a very enjoyable experience overall.“

“My friends and I tried this place out and we loved it. We started with the meatballs and then got the rib eye. Everything was fantastic. We tried a couple different drinks and everything was really good. I’ll be back“

Great neighborhood restaurant, great atmosphere, great, great food, nothing to be desired. Everything was perfect.

Ask for the section of Mr. Isaiah you will not be disappointed.“

“My wife and I, plus my daughter Jennifer and granddaughter Breanna were very much please with our dinner last night. Michael our server came out and created us, by saying it was so nice to see you here again. Michael remember our drink order and promtly brought it out to us. The job Michael did from start to finish was amazing. From getting our order out on time and the desert was perfect for my granddaughter Breanna and my wife's as well. Always asking if everything came out right and if we needed anything else. What a perfect evening and servers like Michael make us want to eat here often. Thanks again to you Michael for giving us a beautiful evening.“

“Oct 2026 •• I've eaten here a handful of times in the last couple of months, and never had a bad experience! The service has always been top notch - they're very accommodating especially with my elderly parents (in wheelchair and walker) even on busy nights.
This weekend, I notice that there were a lot of multi-generational families eating and it was nice to see. Food is great and reasonably priced (as reasonable as it is with prices right now). A lot of standout in food: pot roast, the small plates and appetizers, among others.

My family and I will always patronize this restaurant!“

“Customer service is paramount not only for me, but specially when I am around family. Our server Schaeffer is not only superv to Customer Service but has great personality that makes me feel truly welcome!“

Happy Customer ☺“

“A rare visit for dinner tonight on Friday , had a special for ribs and I couldn’t resist! Carlos and Caitlyn were great. Had a moment to share with Carlos the years I lived in Jalisco Mexico and what can I say Caitlyn has been great as always. She has been a great server since 2019, I hope she never changes.“

“I went into this Denny’s location and was graciously welcomed by fantastic associate by the name of David. David allowed my partner and I to choose our own seats and as we sat he had gone over the new promotions available that we could make use of. As I proceeded to order David pointed out that my desired meal was actually available under the promotion and advised me to take up on that for a better bang for my buck. David also pointed out that if we were not currently rewards members another item we asked for could be given free as a reward if we signed up, yet again saving us some money. As we dined inside, David continuously checked on us making sure we had everything we needed to enjoy our meal with such a wonderful attitude. Overall such an amazing experience with the extremely personable and attentive associate David.“

“Hey guys, don’t miss out on this place especially the tacos. They soft and crispy like no other place I’ve ever tried ,and my dad is a cook. sorry Dad, but the food speaks for itself like he taught me👌🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥 🌮🌮“

“First time there… the food was excellent and the service was great! Friendly and very helpful. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“First, my standards: I'm an old man, and I like OG breakfast eateries, especially small, mom and pop ops.

What this means: fast service, hot food, lots of coffee refills. Today will hit 89 degrees F, but I still want hot coffee.

Menu: OG American White people breakfast: eggs, pancakes, fresh potatoes, bacon, sausage

Service: very attentive. Lots of server visits to my table. The server is in it to win it.

Stop here if you're hungry on a Sunday morning. They take cards, but save 4% and pay in cash.“

“It was wonderful and the food was delicious. The prices are very affordable. I will be coming back!“

“Wonderful food and great service! Thank you for having dine-in also! I hope more restaurants will be bold and open with dine-in!“

“Everything about this place is perfect.

Delicious prime rib. Delicious dessert. Great coffee.

Very friendly staff. I was served by Abby. The venue has a beautiful view over the city lights, and the interior has a European charm.“

“Some unique flavors and some familiar. Customer service at the bar is unparalleled, like the all-day happy hour pricing. I’m very happy when I come to this place, regardless of what I order.“

“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.“

“Very good food, and great cocktails. Wait staff was friendly and accommodating. We enjoyed our experience.“

“Better than Red Robin !!!! 💯!!! Faster service and friendly staff and manager ! Waited 15 minutes at red Robin and didn't get helped. Came to Applebee's and got seated and got our food within 10 minutes!!! And the manager was very nice ! Thank you 🙏“

“Bingo and the Los Angeles Dodgers!“

“Went on a Thursday for date night with the wife. Live music was great. The restaurant was slow but we had a reservation. The service was very slow although they were not busy. Food was tasty but pricey for what you get. We had the Caesar salad to start, Mongolian beef (good but not a large portion of beef with lots of rice for $32), shrimp tacos were on the smallest street taco tortillas I have seen. Drinks and desert were good. Cool vibe and atmosphere.“

“This place is amazing. I go often and everything on their menu is delicious. Their service is always on point, it's like joining family.“

“We had good time and enjoyed our 3 courses lunch with entrée & dessert wines included. Service was attentive and friendly. foods were tasty, well plating and reasonable prices. We have another reservation for dinner this coming Friday.“

“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“

“Of the many reasons I travel to Marie Calendar’s in Azusa is the fact the will make an old classic and favorite Monterey Classic 🤤♥️“

“Their Corned Beef sandwich and their Pastrami Sandwich...both DELICIOUS!!!!!“

“Great service, good chips and salsa, café de olla served in big talavera mugs was perfection. Chilaquiles were flavorful and steak was buttery. Menudo was great with tortillas hechas a mano. Mazapan pancakes were amazing. Classic diner with nice decor.“

“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.“

“Yesterday, I discovered a hidden treasure in San Dimas - Sweet Savory Cafe. This cafe is known for its delicious cookies that sell out quickly. They offer a variety of international flavors, including Cuban sandwiches, salads, soups, freshly made bread, empanadas, and other bakery items. Some items are not listed on the menu, so you can ask for the Chef's Daily Special. I always look for clean and relaxing cafes where my family can eat, or I can simply sit and enjoy a book. My experience at Sweet Savory Cafe surpassed my experiences at other cafes in Pasadena, Claremont, and Upland. I arrived early and enjoyed warm cookies and bread, which were absolutely delicious. I ordered various items including coffee, soup, breakfast, and bakery items. Despite not being a coffee drinker, I found the coffee to be delicious and memorable. I also tried their Healthy Breakfast Burrito with added bacon, which was customizable and very filling. The Lentil soup had an amazing aroma and taste. I can't believe I didn't know about this cafe before, especially since I work in the city! For those new to the cafe, you can order through Uber Eats, Grubhub, Postmates, and DoorDash. Visit their website at SweetSavoryCafe.com or call them at 909-305-9738. Their menu includes breakfast burritos, breakfast sandwiches, avocado toasts, old fashioned oatmeal, and build-your-own scramblers. For lunch and dinner, they offer sandwiches, Paninis, burritos, Cuban sandwiches, veggie sandwiches, wraps, salads, combos, kids' menu, bagels, and more. They even have Keto-friendly San Dimas Barbershop Tacos! There is parking available in the front and back, and plenty of seating inside and outside. If you have a large party, they can accommodate you by pushing tables together. The atmosphere is peaceful, making it a wonderful place to read a book or enjoy a meal with family. They also offer freshly made orange juice, and all their sandwiches are made with their own bread. I tried a new flavor of Sweet & Savory bread and found it to be very delicious. I added cream cheese to it yesterday and tried it with butter today. This is definitely my new go-to place for food. I appreciate the cleanliness of the cafe and the fact that it's open early on for breakfast including Saturday and Sunday. I was even able to order all these items on a Saturday at 7AM. Thank you to the owner, Haydee, and her family for providing such a great first experience. I'm now a loyal customer!“

“My rating is mainly for the pies. I've always loved MC's pies but so many restaurants have shut down, unfortunately 😕 And sad to say, (but i certainly hope not) this one is not far behind. So again, i only stopped in for a delicious pie to take to a dinner party.. I chose a coconut cream after going over the pie menu on the wall ... over and over and over. So many great options and i had alot of time to choose since the counter person was taking a customer payment. I also had a chance to peek around the place and you could obviously tell it was aged and dingy. Not really kept up like the old time Marie's used to look. There seemed to be a good amount of customers for a Wednesday evening around 5pm. The counter girl was courteous and efficient and got me taken care of, as a line started gathering behind me. This was my first time here but im gonna make it a point to return for lunch or dinner, maybe both. Just to support and patronize as much as possible. Hope the food is as good as i remember. Also, gives me a chance to pick up another pie. All for me this time! LOL“

“My 96-year-old friend loves In-N-Out. I introduced him to animal style cheeseburgers years ago and he always gets it this way now:)
The other day an Indonesian friend joined us and we got to introduce him to animal style cheeseburgers and animal fries. Another convert!“

“Nice atmosphere, and good service . Food was okay . Not sure what else to write in order for this to post 🤷🏻‍♀️“
