“If you’re craving Sinaloense food, this is the place to visit. The flavors are authentic, the portions are generous, and everything tastes homemade. The service is exceptional friendly, fast, and they really make you feel at home. And the owner? Seriously one of the nicest people ever. You can tell they put their heart into everything. Don’t sleep on this spot!“

“Maria was very attentive and friendly. We experienced great service! Her tablet shut off on her before submitting our order. She was quick, got a new tablet and had memorized our orders! She just came back to confirm. Went above and beyond and handled the situation promptly and efficiently. Thank you so much!“

“I was at Heritage to celebrate a special occasion — the restaurant was cozy and homey. The kitchen was right in front of us, so the whole room was filled with different aromas. Both the service and food were great. The first few courses were delicious, adding a bit of extra excitement to the meal. That said, for a restaurant charging $195/person with a Michelin star, serving food and beverages on a cracked plate and in a chipped cup felt off. When I asked the staff about it, she gave me a smirk and downplayed it with some excuses and brushed it off. Better quality control may be needed as your guests deserve better.“

“Maria buen servicio muy amable! Gracias“

“This place is always busy. We find seating there at the counter and we do not need to wait for 20 minutes. We love the bean soup? And the apple pie was great.“

“Everything great“

“To John Hansen, My wife and I would like to thank you for such a lovely evening. Chez Bacchus represents the “True Expression of a Dining Experience”. Starting with the welcoming staff at the entrance. John, your hospitality is the beginning of the joyful experience. The restaurant is so elegant. We enjoyed the vaulted ceilings with wood beams. We enjoyed the large window at the kitchen area so you can see the Chefs at work. We got to sit next to the impressive wine rack display. The restaurant’s ambiance wouldn’t be complete without the soft background music. Our waiter, Issac, was a delight. He provided us with his expertise in choosing our wines, appetizers, entrees, and desserts. It was a pleasure to meet to give special thanks to the Chef, Danny Le and Su Chef, Donald. Their expertise is why we had an amazing and delicious dinner.“

“We had a great dining experience at Urban Plates in Long Beach. Mariana explained the menu choices in a very unrushed manner, and we decided on the steak. I ordered the Chimichurri grass-fed steak with balsamic brussel sprouts and herb-roasted potatoes. All of it was delicious ( and healthy too!). The deserts were absolutely killer too. We will definitely eat here again next time we're in Long Beach.“

staff are always nice, place always clean, cup always full of good beer lol.“

“Nick’s food and service doesn’t disappoint! Menu options are great, and they’ll take a classic comfort dish such as a meat loaf to a gourmet degree. Service is impecable too. Worth every dollar you spend here in every aspect! They have my respect and heart! ♥️“

“Food was good but customer service not so great. Our waitress Raquel needs to brush up on her people skills, smile a little more and not have such an attitude. I was afraid to ask her for more ice tea. The food was good, the ambiance great and I’d recommend but avoid this waitress.“

“I had a great breakfast at Jacks and Joe’s. The bacon, sausage, spam and eggs were cooked just right, the French toast with strawberries and nutella was delicious, and even the hash browns nice a crispy and the mango and pineapple juice smoothie hit the spot. Friendly quick service. Recommended.“

“I love this spot! Great little breakfast break on my morning walk.

The staff was very friendly and accommodating of my wife's gluten allergy(I grabber her breakfast to go).

I got avocado toast with poached eggs. Very fresh, cooked to perfection. A refreshing start to my day, definitely.

I plan on coming back for a soup and sandwich for lunch someday soon and walking it off in the park after..they seem to have a great deal!

Atmosphere was quiet and friendly. Lots of folks having nice little meetups and saying good morning to each other. Seems like a great place to be a regular.

Overall just a wonderful little spot. I will absolutely be back many times.“

“The food is freakin delicious. I came in and got the bbq burrito, definitely on the unique spectrum of flavors. Almost $40 for a burrito is quite expensive; otherwise I would have it more often!! But the brisket is otherworldly. In my opinion best BBQ in LA. 🔥“

“This location has an average size parking lot, the food’s always good. Our waitress Norma we had is hard working, always willing to go beyond expectations on making sure the order is correct & always a pleasure to have her serving us. Norma checked on us frequently to see if there was anything we needed, she’s definitely a great employee a pleasure having her as our waitress every time we are there“

“I've been going to Pieloon for a few years now and it is THE BEST restaurant in Downey! The food is always fabulous, the portions are large, the service is perfect! I've had appetizers, salads, pastas, steaks, burgers, sandwiches (I'm addicted to the BLT) and many of their specials. My family and I go now 2x a week and have trouble deciding what to get because it's all so good! And the pies...their pumpkin pie is the best I've ever had and the blueberry cheesecake is fabulous...but just wait until fresh peach pie season...I'll gain weight just thinking about it...the fresh peach is the best pie I've ever, EVER had! I love this place and the people who work there!! They're like family now!“

“I love this spot! It's so homely feeling but like I'd step outside on a giant wooden porch in the South or something. I love the music, decor and service is on point. The prices are fair and decent. Great place to either enjoy a feast or just have a nice relaxing cup of coffee. 🥰“

“I've been going to Maria'a since I was a kid. My parents, when they arrived to the US from Mexico would go there and so did my aunts and uncles and cousins. Now I take my kids to eat there. The restaurant has always been the same with great quality food and great service. Maria's restaurant is a gem in the community and will hopefully be there for many more generations. Don't sleep on this place, give it a try.“

“I stopped by Lazy Dog on the second day of my LA business trip while I was in between checking out of my hotel and waiting for our Airbnb to be ready. It ended up being a really nice place to relax and enjoy a good meal.

I tried the Bacon Candy, which was probably the most memorable item. The bacon was sweet, slightly spicy, and nicely caramelized from the brown sugar. I had never really had bacon served this way before, so I thought it was very creative and surprisingly addictive.

I also ordered the Chuckwagon Flat Iron Steak, and it was excellent. The steak was flavorful and nicely grilled, and the smoked chili butter and crispy onion straws made it even better.

There’s also a Lazy Dog near where I live, so this wasn’t my first time dining with them. What impressed me was how consistent the quality was. Even while traveling, the food and overall experience were just as good as what I’m used to back home.

Lazy Dog has always been very consistent for me, and this visit was another good example of that. Comfortable atmosphere, good service, and really solid food. I would definitely come back again.“

“Food and service are honestly out of this world. Yareli our server is amazing , she is so professional, courteous and attentive to our dietary needs. Andrea the hostess is super sweet. This is a very well run restaurant. The bathrooms are super clean, the environment is great and all staff is super accommodating. I highly recommend it. Will be definitely coming back for more great food and professional service!“
