Tapas Restaurants near Monrovia, CA

“This is such a special place. My boyfriend and I were staying at The Arthur Blair House for the weekend and they highly recommended it to us...we were so happy to take the suggestion. We were welcomed into such a delightful and warm environment and immediately sat at the bar. Julie, the owner, is the kindest and sweetest woman and she cooks like an angel. Even though the menu says small bites, the portions are large enough to share and they are so so good. The menu is great, but be aware that they may not have everything due to availability...but what is available is awesome. We ordered the Caesar salad and the surf and turf plates and it was delectable. Julie, who is also the wine director for the restaurant, offered us a great selection of little known wines that blew us away to complement her amazing food. She has cultivated an environment that feels like you're being cooked for by family or your best friend. We will be back to The Saltner, for sure, as it's a new favorite place. If you're ever in Monrovia, be sure to go, you'll be glad you did.“

“Nothing short of amazing! My family and I found this restaurant/ bar on yelp and planned my sisters 21st birthday here. The staff was truly amazing and helped us make it a memorable night full of fun and laughter and great live music! If I could give 10 stars I would! Thank you everyone!“

“We stumbled upon this spot for ramen and were pleasantly surprised! The portions are great. They give you plenty of broth, and the ramen itself is really tasty. We shared the ramen and some takoyaki (which were decent), and it was more than enough for the two of us. It’s definitely tucked away in the middle of nowhere, so you really have to be looking for it to find it, but it's worth the trip if you’re craving a good bowl! 😅“

“There is a restaurant here called Pa Pa Walk! Sam the owner and his brother are a few of his employees. They are very nice. There is usually a line out the door. Make sure you sign in on the form hanging outside!Seating: A bit cramped, but its busy.

Parking: Cramped, but there is a lot downstairs. Don't park in Hotel parking.Service: When I am there I ususally get a water pretty quickly. They might not be the best at followup but if you are enjoying your food and DESSERT then you will be fine.Food: They serve Taiwanese foods like shaved ice, boba, slush, teas, coffee, popcorn chicken, stinky tofu, leek bun, coffin bread (with cream soup inside), dumplings, chicken/pork chop rice, sausage rice, fried rice, noodles, and they just recently added hot-pot to their menu. I also like their beef noodle soup!I love their mango shaved ice when it is in season. Their fluff ice is just fabulous!“
