Whoever does the ordering knows their beer knowledge and they aren't wrong. They have variety too which is important Also the food is delicious and the waitstaff is always so awesome and chill. I don't feel rushed or anything like that when I come here.”
“If you are looking for some delicious Jamaican food in the Pomona area, this is the place to go to. Food is freshly made. The hit hitting the spot. That jerk salmon, oxtail and goat was made with precision. Try their juices also. The service there always good. We went there when my high school friend cane into town to visit. She loved it. Its in a coo area that you can walk in the downtown area. Not too far tho?. Go support this restaurant, totally worth it.Parking: Have to park on the aide of the street in front of by the restaurant. Parking is always good when we go.”
“Lots of choices that are high quality! They offer gluten free crusts and fully customizable pizzas! They offer good beers and tasty fries! The atmosphere is really modern and rustic which adds a cool vibe! However the prices are expensive, 12 dollars for 7 boneless wings and 17 dollars for a pizza with gluten free crust! If the prices were lower I would come more often but it’s still a nice treat!”

“(Translated by Google) Out of curiosity I found them on google, the truth is the best I've tried in a long time, I recommend them.(Original)Por curiosidad los encontré en google,la verdad las mejores qué e probado en mucho tiempo,los recomiendo.”
“Family of four visited for dinner on a weekday evening. Immediately upon entry we 'raised the roof!' Plenty of menu variety. Owners are very friendly and sincere. Gave us a one-on-one experience.Each of us chose something different to eat. Everything we ordered was enjoyed by all family members.The vibe of this restaurant reminded us Gen-Xers about the '90-'00s; and we loved that!My wife intends to return with friends from Lubbock and show them how the Westsiiiiiide does soul food!”
“Been her multiple times now and the food is great. I am an order online and pick up customer and the service is great and always prompt. My go to order is the spicy chicken plate or shrimp plate. Both are great. Definitely recommend. Also the dole ice cream cone is an awesome little treat.”
Restaurants with Delivery
“I love coming here religiously after school or after work but I just wish the shop hours were extended by an extra hour or 2. There are times where I’m stuck in traffic after work and I really want to enjoy a thirsty girl drink but I don’t make it on time ( I get off work at 4pm). That’s my only complaint but other than that all the drinks are delicious and would recommend! :) support your local business!! Cute aesthetic too, every month is something new ”
“One of the best vegan/vegetarian Mexican restaurants. Highly recommend this to everyone. We have been coming here for many years and no matter what we order-it is amazing.”
“It is a nice kebab store, located across the street from Pomona Valley Hospital. I have visited this establishment once, in November of 2022. I came here on the advise of one friend, who was Turkish descent, and advised to try this place. Since, I am familiar with Turkish cuisine, I thought to try this one out. The meal, that I have ordered, was delicious and well-made. If I remember correctly, it was a chicken lavash. There was ample of space to sit down, and enjoy a meal. At the same time, the staff were helpful and attentive. Definitely, if anyone enjoys Turkish meals, I would recommend a visit to this small restaurant.”
“My daughter and myself found this place on accident on one of the Saturday 909 block parties. I was extremely stoked that there was a vegan restaurant right in downtown Pomona, it has made my day. I have since been back a few times and have also brought a friend to show off this place.I ordered the chickn sandwich and it was very flavorful and juicy. My daughter orders the fish and chips, and I won't lie, it is soooo good and tastes exactly like a fish stick, but you can see that it is tofu. The strawberry lemonade isn't over sugared and isn't too sour nor too tart, very good. As someone who is from Pomona, this place gives me feels, it is right in the heart of downtown on the antique row side. Support this business!!”
“Best authentic family owned. Close to downtown. As a Salvadoran, I reccomend to all my friends and co workers. They all love it and keep going back. Big thick pupusas, not too much masa on the edges, more stuffing instead. Friendly people, great food. Try the ensalada drink, theirs is really refreshing. Take out only.”

“Their menu has many options to choose from and I like that they have vegetarian options as well. The employees were very nice and welcoming and they make their soojoke freshly made so everything is straight out of the oven hot. Loved this place and will come back soon.”
“My girlfriend and I ate here for the first time today, and we can attest and say their food is smack down great! The staff Cameron and Ian were both hospitable and generous. Despite being busy, Cameron went out of his way to describe the different options and alterations they provided at Crimson Coward. Living in Pomona, it's been a bit difficult to find a good fried chicken sandwich spot. This restaurant is going to be a staple from now on!”
“"The steakhouse 5 stars enough! This place was AMAZING! The burger was hands down the best I've ever had - juicy, flavorful, and cooked to perfection. But what really made my experience stand out was the incredible staff. Everyone was so friendly, attentive, and genuinely enthusiastic about the food and service. The atmosphere was lively and welcoming, and I felt like I was part of a special community. I can't wait to come back and try more of the menu! 10/10 would recommend to anyone looking for an exceptional dining experience."”
“My sandwich was good (peppers helped) but overpriced at about $18 after tax with no drink or sides. There were 3 employees staffing the shop for the lunch hour and I saw no other customers during my visit. The building was very clean.”
“Very interesting flavors! Tried the brown sugar boba cup, and it's like getting a boba drink but with ice cream. Very yummy, but also sweet, so be ready. The red bean taro was less sweet, but still sweet enough and tasty. Also tried the Ninja, which is black sesame ice cream. Also very good if you like black sesame (and I do). Haven't tried the drinks, but if they're like the ice cream treats, I'm sure it'll be good. Cute spoons and cute atmosphere with a few games if you want to hang out.”
“Can't believe we've driven by so many times this place and didn't see it lol we finally gave it a try and we've been there couple of times already because the food is very good. The times we've been there it's been empty which we actually enjoyed and also very clean and nice. The food is well cooked and just flavorful and the staff is polite. The prices are a little higher than other places similar to it but it's worth it. Give it a try you won't regret it.”
“Everything was sooooooooo good!!! Little family owned restaurant!! The chips and salsa were some of the best I’ve had!!! Thick and crunchy chips! And the salsa was so flavorful and fresh!! Had a quesabirria taco and shredded beef enchiladas with green sauce!! Absolutely ”
“Great service, very friendly workers and staff. These days it's hard to find food that taste good and for a good price.Dietary restrictions: Lactose Free optionsKid-friendliness: They have an accessible kids chair.”
“I had a good old fashioned American breakfast. It was prepared exactly as requested. Pancakes were okay. Not my favorite friendly folks. Great service and good food”
“Always a pleasure coming here. The food is packed with flavor, cooked to perfection, and served with generous portions.I work in the plaza and go here often for lunch. The service is always top-tier and the staff are welcoming. Whether you're taking it to go or enjoying the ambiance of the store, PhoX is the perfect place to get a delicious, filling meal.I go here at least once or twice a week and I don't plan on stopping any time soon!”
“The Jidori Chicken is insanely good! Tony rocks, if you have the pleasure of having him as your waiter. This restaurant is not just a hotel restaurant - it's legitimately a delectable, relaxing and wonderful experience.”

“It was our first time there definitely won't be our last. This place was awesome! Great beers, great atmosphere and great people working there! Thank you so much for your hospitality! Enjoyed singing a song with Rabbi Blue! They were amazing!”
“Just a very nice and relaxing meal, with very much attention shown to diners during your meal. My wife and I go there with friends when we get the chance. It's always enjoyable. The food is excellent. I would recommend Tropical Mexico to anyone that I know. Because I'm certain they won't be disappointed with the meal or the service ever.”
“Exceeded my expectations…we randomly discovered it because of Google and since we are locals we decided to come. The churro beer is awesome. The vibe is very chill and not loud. Very comfortable and the people are very nice. Come and support local business!”
“Service was great!! Owner was very nice and we enjoyed the chili Verde burrito, shredded beef hardshell tacos, and chili relleno.If you are in town for trade shows or have an rv or trailer the parking is super easy and plenty of parking”
“This is a great location with a full bar the food is amazing in I'll be coming back for brunch I recommend the taquitos and chile verde the plates are big enough for two people so have a micheladas and enjoy a great food.tjw home made tortillas stole my heart ❤️”
“Every time I’m in Pomona I have to stop and enjoy this wonderful spot. Brings me back to being a kid when dad would come home with a large batch of tacos for the whole family. Recipe hasn’t changed, always delicious ”
“Queenie is the best! Came from the Bay Area heading to LA and gave this place a try. The shrimp roll is yum pho flavor vibes, and the lobster roll delicious!

“This place catered my warehouse back in November. I got a pork pupusa and oh my! I'm still thinking about them today. If the place wasn't so far I would probably eat these weekly if not daily!”
“We came here on my wife's birthday. We ordered a table full of dishes to try. That is just how it is done at a Chinese restaurant or how we do things... Haha.The outside of the restaurant doesn't look much or have much to write about. It has a huge private parking lot, which is super nice. The interior is really beautifully decorated. They even have a wall for photos.The service is not bad. The lady that took care of us is on point. Making sure we got what we needed.Now on to the food. It is a Mexican-Chinese restaurant. Which means, the dishes are cooked with a hints of Mexican flavor. It is different, but so very good.Each dish is nicely flavored, but sadly a few dishes are a bit too salty. Even though the salt was a bit much, the other flavors still came through. Just need to dial down the salt a bit. Their Honey Walnut shrimp has way too much bread coating. Seems a bit different from their photos, but the flavor was still good.Will gladly come back next time. They even have a huge table that can seat up to 20 people!Vegetarian options: The chefs can make any dish vegan. Just ask them to.”
“Very cute little coffee shop .. couldn’t decide so we got three different coffees . A cortadito , cold brew and the caffe de olla .. it was good but too cinnamony for me .. very popular spot ! The place was bustling . Would definitely recommend and I would like to come back and try something a little more simpler . I think they have good beans so I’d like to see the true flavor of the coffee ☕️”
“Comfortable establishment.... You're looking for a drink and a chill ambiance this is it! Looking to pickup, it wasn't happening on my night - Friday. Other than that, chill dive bar.”
“Delicious food. Excellent service. Each and every server at this restaurant were making sure you are enjoying your meal and being taken care of. When you are served with love, you want to visit the place again.”
“Definitely the best food, ? I've tried different dishes and so far I liked them all, I'm a foodie and this modest place is one of my mexican food faves, the Barbacoa Estilo Texcoco is the best I ever had!, ? congratulations to the owner chef for creating great dishes! ?”
“One of my favorite food and drink spots in Pomona. Idk what these people do or know but somehow they have the best beers on tap. Whoever does the ordering knows their beer knowledge and they aren't wrong. They have variety too which is important Also the food is delicious and the waitstaff is always so awesome and chill. I don't feel rushed or anything like that when I come here.”
“Sushi was excelent.Margaritas were delicious, short on some advertised flavors, but still very good.Thai noodles not recommended.Clean and welcoming atmosphere and staff.”
“Tldr: This is a Sports Book style place akin to Vegas and less a restaurant. However, the food and service are good. I would come again (for the burgers ?)This was out first time here. We were surprised when we got inside to find that it's a Sports Book place like you see in Vegas. Nothing wrong with that, but the menu is large and varied that we expected a restaurant. What it means is that tables can be scarce. There is an outdoor patio, but that's where the smokers take it over.We ordered the Baja Burger and the Chilaqules Plate.The burger was great. The patty was juicy and thick, cooked as requested. The Baja comes with cheese, onions, jalapeños, and peppers --they were grilled and delicious. Fries are included but there's an upcharge for waffle or steak fries. Priced at $16.99, I enjoyed it and would order it again.The Chilaqules came with two eggs (any style) on top a generous portion of tortilla chips with a spicy salsa, beans and potatoes (choice of hash browns or fried). It was very good but the beans were just ok. The price was $17.99.The atmosphere may not be to everyone's liking, but it is colorful. Expect yelling at the horses and occasional cussing.If it means anything to you, 3 men walked out of the restroom without washing their hands.With a window facing the patio, there is plenty of natural light.Smoking at the entrance and on the patio should be expected although unwanted.Vegetarian options: Not for vegetarians but there are fish & chips and pizza (cheese only).Dietary restrictions: I'm sure you can ask for accommodation but this is not that kind of place.Parking: There's a large lot but it can fill up on a busy day.Kid-friendliness: Not kid friendly. It's like Vegas.Wheelchair accessibility: It's accessible...they want your money. Plenty of older men using walkers here.”
“Came here tonight with my girls after the 2nd Saturday street fair, kind of quiet at first and then all of a sudden NIGHT CLUB!!! Not expected!! Sooo much fun!! Good priced beer!! Awesome friendly staff!! Security always watching and felt safe!! Will definitely come back!!”

“Today I called in a lunch order for me and my boss who is a little special and like all the available meat options in his fried rice. I headed over to pick up the food which was ready in a timely fashion and went back work. As we were eating the food in walks a worker from the restaurant because they forgot to put shrimp in his rice. The dedication to service required to drive over to us to drop it off without us calling really shows the care they provide to their customers. We will definitely be back!”

We were there for a business happy hour meeting and had jalapeno sliders yet I will be back for those and other menu options including the tacos which looked fantastic.Our server at the bar was great.

Don't worry my grandma is getting veneers and i'll be back for my true love.”

Get the grilled onions and jalapeno too!!The prices are great too! Not a big menu but what they have is good enough!! I will be going back!”
“There is a guy that works in the morning today Monday 3/11, he has great customer service. The ladies working with him could learn from him. I asked to use the restroom, the lady seemed so bothered to buzz me in. She even rolled her eyes. The inside of this location is extremely clean and has a nice bright ambience. It does not feel like your at a Jack in the box”
“Mainly a drive-thru locale. Not many workers. Walk-ins will be over looked at lunch hour rush and early mornings.Parking: It's not a sit down and eat place so No one parks.”
“What a fun experience I had. Honestly I was on the road and just needed to use the restroom, however, as I was exiting a very friendly employee was headed my way so I felt like I should buy something ? I actually did want a cup of coffee. He asked if I would like the "senorita" cup, then explained that it was the dollar cup of coffee for seniors, but felt his name for it fit a cup for a woman like me. So sweet, right? We shared a nice laugh. Wish I knew his name. By the way, the bathroom was very clean and the coffee was great!”

When I got out i kept by promise and ordered the new monster tacos and they were fresh and delicious as always! Thank you sweet girl at the counter, I wish I remembered her name! Such a life saver!!”
“Everything was good. Just the sauce was a little salty. But other than that. Everything was good ?. But they do need ppl in the front. It will be nice if they have a waiter. It gets busy for just one person only.”

“The best kept secret in the inland empire. I don't live nearby anymore and I still crave their signature garlic sauce. Every dish is flavorful and fresh. Great atmosphere and very kind staff (they always remembered me and my friends)!”

“Glad I found Tony's French Dips in Downtown Pomona. I was lucky enough to meet the owner that still makes the sandwiches the right way. They have been open since the 1950's and still serving the Pomona community with their amazing sandwiches. I had the 50/50 Pastrami and Beef dip, both are amazing the Pastrami with mustard and pickles had to be my favorite and the dip was perfect! Come to Tony's French Dip!”
“Great take out spot for sushi and Hawaiian bbq!Food is delicious! Fast no frills! Good portion size.Came here for lunch take out one day and ordered several items from the menu. The place is a small shop with a few table and really only for take out which is totally fine by me.It was super easy to order at the counter, and I didn't have to wait very long for the food to come out. Everything was cooked fresh. Everything tasted delicious and the portion sizes. Very good.Definitely be coming back again.”
“Most of the time I've ordered it's pretty empty. And I don't see why people don't eat here. The food is delicious and the staff is friendly and very friendly and knowledgeable of the menu. Maybe next time I'll eat in to see why most people do take out.”

“Ramen is good. The broth is rich and thick, made with real pork bone. Spicy koji ramen is based with Tonkotsu, with kimchi and seafood in, additional veggies, it’s really good. The only thing is that their noodles is thick while I personally prefer thinner (so that can eat faster)The price is very reasonable for students around here. Good option for students to dine out (it’s right next to cal poly Pomona)”

“I love this place. Bionicos are my favorite thing to get here but honestly everything I've tried is good. The aguas are always refreshing and delicious. The prices have gone up since they've opened but so has everything else, so I guess it's about average. I recommend you try this place and see for yourself.Parking: The parking lot is kinda a tight squeeze but other than that there's usually always parking.”
“This is the best local burger dive in pomona! The food the people and the workers are all on point. Delicious and family friendly. Definitely recommended stopping by for a bite with the family or on a lunch break.”
“Wow, it is the best place for Oysters, Ceviches, and all kinds of Seafood, I recommend it to friends from Pomona and its surroundings?✌Mmmm, everything is super delicious?✌and to eat inside, it is a good place, very clean and fast the staff very friendly”
“Very impressed with their cleanliness and food!! My sister and I have been coming here for a few years now and have NEVER had a bad experience. With all that's going on in the world right now, they were the first buffet in our area to reopen for dine in. We were skeptical about going considering COVID-19 numbers have increased again and weren't sure how well a buffet would operate in such conditions. We were informed to wear our masks when we go up for food and we were given a pair of gloves to use. In speaking with an employee about how they are handling this situation, he informed us that the owner spent over $500 for a deep cleaning and sanitation of their entire restaurant! The employees are very caring and put their all into creating an excellent guest experience. By far this is our favorite, affordable buffet to visit and we can't wait to come back soon!”
“The food here is great, authentic with the flavor of home. The food took a little longer than expected but worth the wait. I wish they had hand made tortillas to elevate the experience. It was a quiet night, they have a set up for live entertainment. I would like to to return to Emiliano's on a night they have the live music.Parking: Plenty of parking on their lot. Not a busy night when I was there. Maybe different when they have live entertainment, but also plenty of street parking around their establishment.”

“I was craving Mole and I saw what was on the menu, we went and they told me there was one but it was spicy, we took the risk because I like sweet mole but it had a good flavor and good spiciness, I recommend it!The only bad thing is that they only gave me 2 tortillas, and even sadder because they are handmade and I wanted another one. 15dlls”
“Not just a hot dog anymore! I say that everytime I stare at the menu. I love this place! I now work in Pomona and let me tell you, the staff here in Pomona are the best! This place is clean. Makes me want to steal all their employees and have them come work for me! Food is always awesome, good, fresh, delicious! Great Job Wienerdudes and dudettes...”

“I got a half of a burger in the trash and some hot french fries from someones plate still on the table after they left. Employees didn't complain or make me leave and a man purchased a beverage for me so I had dinner for the night! AWESOME! Thank you Toms!”
“I went thru the drive thru and everything was fast and fresh. I had the French Toast sticks and they were so fresh and crispy. I also had the small cheese burger add mayo and tomato and while those upgrades do cost extra they are delicious! FYI the bathroom does need a code for ladies and men's but they are clean and well kept.”

“I have been going to Dino's chicken for years. They have the most amazing chicken I've ever had. There's sauce that they marinate the chicken in is out of this world I strongly recommend going here.”
“The service was good, but the owners should put a little more money into upkeep. The pothole, as you leave the drive through window, is huge. The building looks like it's going to crumble.”
“Today was the very first time dinning at this place ..the food was great nice a fresh and the environment was great the prices are reliable I highly recommend this place to visit ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐”
“Delicious burgers, grilled cheese, fries, and drinks :) animal style with grilled onions is a must for the best experience.Parking: This location is better for drive thru but there is some parking and a small table to sit at if you want to eat outside.”
“Bacon breakfast burritos are perfect. Not too big. Not too small. Assembled almost as well as if I had done it myself. Barbecue sauce is the best, added a little bit before each bite. So good.”
“This is one of my top favorite places to go eat at. Their food is always affordable and comes out warm. There's a large variety of options to choose from. Their restaurant is also clean inside and their line goes by so quickly. They are also very generous with their hot sauce which is very delicious with the meal.”
“This is one of my favorite courses in the Inland Empire for many different reasons. Starting off it's a beautiful course, never backed up, and well maintained. Secondly the staff is amazing. The manager was incredibly helpful and kind. My buddies and I got there and it started to rain. We had played until the 3rd hole and then it began to hail. We walked in and talked to someone in the office who said we would not be able to get a refund because we had already started. I waited to speak to the manager and he gave us a full refund instead of just our cart fee and was very understanding. This place is great.”
“Chendo 10/10. Didn't have the right stuff for a midouri sour but made it work !!! Customer service , 10/10. would come back. Needs a raise. Thanks for a great night !!!!!”
“I got my food delivered so I cannot review the service for dining inside this restaurant. However the food I received was delicious! Every bite is perfect because it is seasoned so well. I ordered the red aguachiles and the shrimp ceviche. I eat out a lot and hardly leave reviews but this deserves it and I will definitely be eating here again.”

“Kitty is very professional, attentive, and kind. She has excellent customer service. I ordered a birthday cake from her and she went above and beyond to make sure I got what I wanted. The cake was delicious, moist, and not too sweet just the right sweetness. Thank you Kitty so much.”
“Wow amazing flavor and taste and option to make it spicy well can I just say every salsa was spicy and thank you exactly what we wanted. Somehow the spice level just kept going up and we really enjoyed ourselves. We were able to sit at the table and just enjoy a lovely meal.”
“This restaurant deserves way more hype! I live in Pomona so there's PLENTY of Mexican restaurants. However, I keep coming back here to enjoy the delicious tacos and sopes. The tacos de asada: you HAVE to get them with the tortilla hechas a mano. ( tortillas made from scratch/ by hand) not only do they taste great, they're BIG! I can only eat two and I'm already full. I like to add green salsa and the red one. ( the red salsa is the best ) The sopes: don't be fooled, they're HUGE. It was freshly made and it was so delicious. It had beans, carne asada, lettuce, avocado , crema and queso. I've never had a sope this good in a long time. Please support this small business. They're friendly and the food is worth trying. Location could be better but don't let that stop you from enjoying the food.”
“Called b4 going and asked if they had any bolillo, and the lady said no. I told my son to go and get sweet bread anyway. So when he gets there, he is getting Conchas and quernos, and he asks her if there is any more bolillo and guess what she said: "Yes, I have a couple left. These are the last ones and they are the small ones. My son brings them home, and they are the big ones. I am glad she gave them to my son. My son is a handsome boy and courteous, so I think she liked him. And gave him those last pieces. That was a blessing. Their bolillo is so good. Mmm. Warm out of their oven with a little butter, and they got me. Fresh Mexican bread on the daily. Very nice bakers and clerks. Fresh coffee in the morning. On your way to work, stop by for some Mexican sweet bread and hot coffee.”
“Bakery that also sells tamales and is next to a dollar store. When walking in you have to wait for the worker to come with the tray and tell them what you want so they can grab it for you instead of the typical self serve. They can help you if you tell them what kind of bread you want or if you don't know what kind of filling is in any of them. I got a custard cone, Orejas and a cortadillo which came out to be about $3.75They were all very fresh and tasted great!!! They close at 3pm!!”
“Delivery only.I've ordered delivery a few times throughout the past years and their food is always fresh and delicious! You would not have thought it was take out because it comes nice and warm. The taste is oh so good! Overall great food and quick delivery. Shout out to the cooks! The food is always right! I can only say good things about your food, always!”

“AMAZING! the caldo chefs kiss! The pupusas are amazing I recommend cheese and pork! U have to try this! Service on top! The wait time is worth it! I recommend calling so when you get there it's ready!”

“If you're looking for a local taco spot, give this one a try. They have great tacos, convenient and always consistent so you know what to expect. Also get their green salsa!”
“I have been in search of the best popusa in a 10 mile radius. I come from a dense los Angeles area known for Salvadorian foods. Now that I live in Montclair I have been disappointed with the Salvadoran foods here. UNTIL I found this hidden Gem. Popusa here is NOT oily it's crispy and filled more with food than with dough. Their plates are very authentic.. feels like my wife just served me food at home. It's clean and savory. If anyone in town feels like eating a well experienced salvadoreño cuisine restaurant you found it!”
“Best Chinese food in town. I used to come here when I lived down the street. And I still come here even though I have to drive from ontario. Love their mango slushies and the teriyaki chickens is always a good bet. Just posted a picture of my meal. Please support local businesses. The workers are the owners and they are super nice hard workers. You'll enjoy your food”
“Ive been coming here for over 8 years always get the beef banh mi sandwich with double meat.It’s the best one I’ve had hands down.(Photo not included I ate it too fast )”
“Great Mexican place that’s a hole in the wall setting. No thrills and you don’t go here for the atmosphere. However, don’t make this fool you. The taste is unreal. They have old Mexican dishes you can’t find in many places. From mojado style burritos to tacos, birria, costillas, barbacoa de borrego. Even they have huraches and ceviche. It’s worth the try for sure.”
“Had the wet burrito divorced. (Red and Green)Very good and filling. Also got chips and salsa, the 7 has just the right burn. lol.All good and they were hopping when I got there.Vegetarian options: Not vegetarian but saw it on the menu.”
“Placed my order and picked up my pizza in a timely manner. The food tasted great and they made especially sure I had my order. From ordering to picking up my pizza everything went exceptionally smooth.”
“This place has been here since I was 8n high school, so it was fun to go back after all these years. Great location on the bluff overlooking the I 10 freeway with views of the entire valley. Walk down stairs into the old mine with loose rocks between planks on the wall and lots of old mining equipment. (There is a handicapped entrance with no stairs) To the right is the Rattlesnake lounge, which is huge with floor to ceiling windows. To the left, the multi-teired dining room where everyone has a view. Dinners come with a real salad bar featuring all my favs and a soup bar. You can have both and all you want. The serve a large basket of very tasty cheese bread. Bottomless and very good.I had a New York steak medium rare with the garlic mashed potatoes with the works and green beans. The steak was a little thin for my liking but cooked perfectly, flavorful, and tender. The garlic mashed potatoes came as a huge mound with butter, chives, bacon bits and sourcream. We all agreed they were fantastic, but much more than we could eat. The wife had shrimp and scallops that she reported as very good. The service was delightful, friendly and top notch.Highy recommended.”
“Go for the lunch specials!usually not a long wait! This restaurant is to go only! Dinner can be a bit of a wait but it definitely worth the wait! All that buttery goodness!”

“It is a nice kebab store, located across the street from Pomona Valley Hospital. I have visited this establishment once, in November of 2022. I came here on the advise of one friend, who was Turkish descent, and advised to try this place. Since, I am familiar with Turkish cuisine, I thought to try this one out. The meal, that I have ordered, was delicious and well-made. If I remember correctly, it was a chicken lavash. There was ample of space to sit down, and enjoy a meal. At the same time, the staff were helpful and attentive. Definitely, if anyone enjoys Turkish meals, I would recommend a visit to this small restaurant.”
“"The steakhouse 5 stars enough! This place was AMAZING! The burger was hands down the best I've ever had - juicy, flavorful, and cooked to perfection. But what really made my experience stand out was the incredible staff. Everyone was so friendly, attentive, and genuinely enthusiastic about the food and service. The atmosphere was lively and welcoming, and I felt like I was part of a special community. I can't wait to come back and try more of the menu! 10/10 would recommend to anyone looking for an exceptional dining experience."”

“The bread is delicious but the line always sucks. I prefer to order over the phone for food pick up and not have the line wait. For the bread it's super delicious and sweet. The customer services varies from good to not so good. But it's one of the only good bakeries around. My grandmother and I love the mole there!”

We've been 2x now and haven't regretted it! The portions are big and everything was seasoned to perfection. Nestled behind the market, the seating was comfortably and attractive. We loved the vibe of the restaurant.Both times that we've been the servers are extremely helpful in making decisions on what to have.”
