“This place and never went in until a couple days ago and I got the rancheros sunny side up. The flavors were really good. I thought it was a little bit too white sauce the tortillas all the flavor was delicious. The staff was exceptionally attentive and I was just taking out. They gave me a lot of attention, which is pretty nice. Don’t see that anymore. We got a cup of coffee, which is really good and took it home far away for breakfastmaybe share with your friends.“

“The Jolly Jug is one of those iconic places that can never be duplicated. The original Jolly Jug was in South El Monte in the 1930s and people came from all around to eat their famous Pastrami’s and Beef Dip sandwiches. Going into another century of their delicious food and cold beer, you can’t go wrong by making a pit stop here. In a world of hip restaurants trying to reinvent LA cuisine, the Jug is comfort food, done right. ❤️“

“I thought the veggie omelette was really good and our server was kind and helpful! They accommodated our party of 6 for lunch right away (on a Saturday) by quickly pulling some tables together outside, which was nice. We actually did get lucky with parking but yeah, the spots were few and far between. I think the one thing that was kind of shocking about Ed’s was that they charge $4 extra for a side of fruit and it was much less fruit than I’d anticipated for that price. I wish I’d known, I would’ve just stuck with one of the regular sides. Also instead of the veggie, the server handed me an omelette with meat in it that belonged to someone else at the table. She was very apologetic, no harm, no foul. I’d just recommend double checking things, especially if you have a specific diet or allergens to watch out for. But other than that, the food really did hit the spot! Perfectly cooked omelette, pancakes were a major hit at our table, and the burger was apparently really delicious!“

“Sunday 8/10/2025

It was our first time here with friends and family for breakfast, I must say enjoyed our meals which ranged from pancakes, waffles, musubi, sausages, bacon, wow! Delicious!

It is a different set up, than any other restaurant we've been to, you go up to the counter, place your order and then you find a seat. Similar to a fast food restaurants when ordering. Other restaurants we've been to gas a hostess to greet you, take the amount of people in your party then shows you to your seats. 😋“

“Great wait staff. Plenty of parking extensive menu“

“Driving between Palm Springs and Los Angeles? We plan the whole trip around this …

Have a special combo bahn mi at Tip Top Sandwiches in Rosemead. Their fresh spring rolls, pho and Vietnamese coffee are killer too! And never leave without a fresh $3 French baguette.“

“My company used Crossroads for a very long project that required catering every weekday for over three weeks. Helen was quick on delivery, she was willing to work with us to add variation to the lunches and her prices could not be beat. The employees we were training highly complimented all the food. Sandwiches, wraps, tacos, bento bowls and salads. All of it was delicious. I cannot thank Helen a Crossroads enough for her hard work and wonderful food.“

“Best customer service ive had at any ihop, kept coming to check on us. Even the manager( i assume) stopped by to ask us if we needed anything. Food was delicious as well and they were all super friendly and curteous. Planning to go back to this location“

“This place is such a hole in the wall, would honestly come back. This place been around for a while but I never know this place exist because it’s so hidden.The service is a bit slow when prepping the food, but their tacos are to die for. I would come back any day for tacos!Parking lot is shared with other shops but not too busy! The menu is consistent and so is their food!Would come back again! Don’t let the small shop and sketchy look deceive you!“

“First of all , the atmosphere was calm and excellent not too much noise and not too quiet, the music in the background was just perfect the service for me was 10/10, and the food was just stunningly perfect,
I would for sure recommend this place.“

“Food was good and service was friendly. Bacon was crispy but not fresh. You can tell that it's pretty cooked hours or the day before. It's the only thing that's barely warm and dry. Makes a difference. For a $20 breakfast it should be fresh.“

“First presentation, the smell is amazing. I got the Cajun burrito which was a lovely, sweet and spicy fluffy eggs. The mayo is on point very good value for the burrito. I just had the tater tots tortilla so fresh genuinely the service was amazing. She took my order she was super helpful helping me pick the burrito. The flavor is so great it’s spicy. It’s tasty savory wow this is not like a normal burrito and keep in mind. This was literally done in like five minutes. I was in there and had a chance to talk to people picking up Uber eats orders. They had told me that this place was the shit, I was able to find this place out. Will be coming back soon.“

“Friendly staff, delicious food ❗️❗️“

“Fernando has been our server for many yrs. He almost family. He serves you like you were visiting him at home. The sweetest man. He remembers everything, like I'll have my coffee when the meal comes. He and I speak the same language as far as when he comes with the coffee he wants me to put the cream and sugar first before he pours. We laugh over that because we both agree if you put the cream in last it cools the coffee down. I know how difficult it can be serving people because I was a Flight Attendant for 50 yrs. And my Husband & I treat servers with the most respect. We can't say enough about Fernando. Most attentive. We just love him. It's funny when we go in we ask where Fernando is and the hostess will say he's inside today and we wish to sit out in the patio. I'll ask her to just tell him we are here and he will always come outside to serve us. He has met my Son & Daughter in Law & my best friends. We took them for Brunch while she was pregnant, now we take our Granddaughter to Teddy Bear Tea. She's a Langham Girl since before she was born. Our only wish is that they would bring back the Brunch pre Covid. The best brunch in the city. Now it's nothing like is was. It was unbelievable. Diane & Lon Handelsman“

“This location has always been consistent with their food and service. They have a very good selection of breakfast, and it doesn't disappoint. The prices are very fare and low compared to other local spots. Look forward to our next visit.“

“Dollis in Covina is my go-to breakfast spot — and has been for years!
I’ve been coming here with my family for as long as I can remember, and it never disappoints. The Dolli Special is my favorite — classic, delicious, and always hits the spot. The service is consistently friendly and fast, the prices are super reasonable, and the place is always clean and welcoming. There’s just something about the atmosphere that feels like home. Love this place! 💛🍳🥓“

“This place is lowkey and so legit. We love getting the taiwanese purple rice rolls, pork buns, and hot tea (that tea is a steal ngl). There's enough menu items you can take your time exploring, or eat some tried and trues. Everything tastes made from scratch. Prices are affordable. The servers are so sweet and kind. Like what's not to love?? The majority of customers are Chinese speaking, but we got by fine with English XD Morning Summit is always the perfect way to start your day...arguably best breakfast place in town!“

“A large, very good shop. Good selection, well organized. On Sundays it seems to be busier than usual, service was nice and really good, but stressful due to the abundance. In any case, my best recommendation because it was delicious! And that's what it's all about?“

“We had the most OUTSTANDING service from Elizabeth again today!! Not only did she remember us from last time, she once again had the sweetest, kindest personality by any server any of us can ever remember! No exaggeration, she made every one of us feel SO welcomed that she instantly had us all in a better mood within minutes! She was attentive, easy going, funny, and made what would have been an average meal, an EXCEPTIONAL one! There's no question that good service is few and far between these days, and Elizabeth not only met our (high) expectations - she absolutely EXCEEDED them in every possible way! If you are visiting this particular location, be sure to ask if Elizabeth is working and to be seated in her section - you will be so happy that you did!!! ❣️“

“Our IHOP is very clean and the service was excellent. Nice sized portions and polite waitress. Certainly will go back again.“

“Really delicious when chef is on it. Long-time customer since they opened in San Gabriel. Unfortunately inconsistent quality, understaffing make this place hit-or-miss. I rarely eat in due to understaffing - bussing & cleaning take a while. 85-90% of the time pretty good TW deli food. I go there every 1-2 months.

I esp like their sticky rice rolls fantuan, sticky rice wrapped in bamboo zongzi, turnip cakes luobogao, onion pancakes congyoubing, black sesame pastry, green onion pastry xiekehuang. Their garlic soy sauce is delish!“
