Comfort Food Restaurants near Rosemead, CA

“We eat dinner here about once a week regularly after table tennis. We love their ice lemon tea with refills and the black sesame milk tea. We like the on-choy, pork belly with preserved vegetables, squids with sour cabbage, egg plants, pan fried eggs with dry radish or bitter melon, cabocha, etc.“

“Good food. Great service. Very understanding and accommodating staff.“

“@holysaintsbistro is a gem in the wall. The quality of food coming out of their cozy, small kitchen is superb. Kudos to the chefs behind the line. I had the duck breast and lamb steak, and both were spectacular. The sauce the lamb was served with gave it just the slightest edge over the duck.

The only item that did not impress was the yellowfin tuna appetizer. It was smothered in seasoning that diminished any flavor of the fish and completely overpowered it.

Besides that, my dinner was exquisite.“

“This place has unique takes on classic American meals. I think a majority of the items in the menu are great! My favorite is the bison burger, if you haven’t tried bison ever, I would ask anyone reading this to give it a shot, it tastes just like regular beef but it’s better, at least at this restaurant anyway.“

“Located in a vibrant neighborhood, Oyster Dive Bar offers a delightful dining experience with a unique twist on seafood classics. The crispy Cajun fries with cheese are a standout appetizer, perfectly seasoned and crunchy, making them an irresistible starter. The lobster pasta features fresh lobster, expertly prepared and bursting with flavor, showcasing the restaurant's commitment to quality ingredients. The ambiance is cozy and inviting, ideal for both casual outings and intimate dinners. The service is attentive and friendly, adding to the overall enjoyable atmosphere. Prices are reasonable given the quality and portion sizes. However, it's worth noting that the restroom could use more attention; cleanliness was a bit lacking during my visit. Despite this minor drawback, the delicious food and pleasant surroundings make Oyster Dive Bar a recommended choice for seafood enthusiasts looking to enjoy a satisfying meal in a relaxed setting. Overall, Oyster Dive Bar earns four stars for its tasty dishes, friendly service, and comfortable ambiance. With a few improvements in cleanliness, it could easily become a five-star dining destination.“

“My wife and I checked out Min Min House in Alhambra, a real hole-in-the-wall spot with a no-frills vibe. There’s basically no service—you scan a QR code to order, and they bring the food when it’s ready. The dumplings were solid, definitely a highlight. The cucumber salad was fantastic, super fresh and authentic. Hot and sour soup, though? Not my thing—couldn’t get used to the flavor. The beef pie stole the show with its thin, crispy skin and juicy filling. Scallion pancake was just okay, nothing special. The xiao long bao was tasty with soft, flavorful skins. Overall, they’ve got some great dumplings worth trying. Parking’s either on the street or in the back lot.“

“I’ve been 3 times in the past 3 weeks. Service and food is fantastic! Highly recommend Smitty’s Grill.“

“Best Bar in Whittier!! Amazing bartenders!!“

“The bolo bao ice cream sandwich was the bomb! I had it with ube ice cream. The garlic fries - lots of fresh garlic with a side of bomb lemon aoili and house sauce! The best! Passionfruit green tea was perfect for the hot weather! So cute inside too! It's a smaller space and a one man show. Everything is made fresh so please be patient - it's worth the wait! Great service! It's a hidden gem to the right of BofA in the plaza. — at CrispyandFluffed.“

“The Food Is Sooo Good..I like the Rio Double Cheese Burger, The Stewart Fries, the wings, the Chili Cheese Fries, you just can't lose with this place & they're nice people & good with suggestions...So Bomb🔥 everything made Fresh“

“Best Taiwanese food you have ever eaten! So far, everything is delicious 🤤. I ordered their fried pork chop, and it's so juicy. I enjoy their mustard greens but they are good with pork belly rice. The rice was delicious because the fatty and lean meat was evenly portioned in every bite. I ordered the pork intestine with oyster vermicelli, but I prefer only the oyster because the intestines, to my preference, are a bit plain. The oysters are fresh, and it would be nice if the menu had fried oysters as appetizers 👍. The popcorn chicken wasn't my favorite because it had less basil and was sweet, which was different from the ones I had. But overall, it's good, and I will be coming back.“

“I was actually surprised, this place is really good recommended by one of my clients. I got the dark meat chicken sandwich on the spicy side and fries, yall it's fire! And guess what yall ever hear of an ube cheesecake? Bomb, bomb, yall sleeping on it, and they got happy hour i think it's 1 to 4, it's the leg and thigh combo with fries and a Hawaiian roll, bomb, bomb... fries are on point!! but try that Ube cheesecake,best cheesecake you'll ever taste, smooth like clouds I'm tryna tell yall... peace out!!!“

“very good comfort food that you can really dig into<3“

“It was our first time back to this place since the change of new ownership. We used to come a lot when it was under Cortez ownership. Needless to say, we wanted to go somewhere local without waiting much so we decided to come back and try this place.

It was empty when we came in on a Sunday afternoon. The server was very welcoming, courteous and attentive. It was about 92 outside and inside it was nice and fresh, cool but not ice cold. There was plenty of parking ( they have a small parking lot and plenty of street parking).

We both ordered the chilaquiles, one Red and Green plate. Came with refried beans and potatoes. The portions were relatively decent sized; not too big and not too small.

They gave us homemade chips with some homemade green salsa, fidelio soup which were all good but the salsa in my opinion phenomenal. So the free entries were good.

The chips were homemade and not too hard and not saggy, not full of sodium either. The sauces and salsa are all homemade and delicious. The red and green chilaquiles salsas that this place uses were both handmade and great. The beans were delicious, the potatoes were rather hard though and in a very small portion. We enjoyed the food, definitely coming back to try other things on the menu. THEY DON’T SELL ALCOHOL……..

The prices were relatively reasonably priced. If ur local, and don’t want to go broke or wait for a ridiculous waitlist then I’d definitely recommend coming.“

“Chicken and beef pies I have loved most of my life. Still great !!!!!“

“Excellent food prepared fresh. Great service. Indoor and outdoor eating. Great 👍🏻✌🏼😉“

“Basically “Chipotle” for udon but WAAYY BETTER. With that in mind it’s really cool they make your food in front of you as you pick out items. It was a bit of wait on the weekend, and add ons can get pricey. I loved the cleanliness and overall vibes. Jason was on top of it from helping people and cleaning up. I feel better about ordering when staff like him actually know the menu. GET THE CURRY NIKUTAMA SO YUMMY!!! Even tasted great when i took leftovers home. (Thanks for the recommendation Jason)“

“Great food, relaxing environment“

“Absolutely AMAZING! Matthew was our server and was so knowledgeable about not only the menu, but also the history of the company. We also received a visit from Delaney to check in on us and welcome us as first time visitors. I’m leaving here FULL (because I ate everything) and feeling like this is my new “home away from home”. Highly recommend the chicken salad and the tortilla soup. This place is now a regular stop for me and I will try to be patient until they decide to open a location in Phoenix.“

“Good soup and side dishes. Large servings and servers are very nice😁“

“he'll mf yea this place is amazing. best tasting chicken sandwiches! real spice if u can handle the heat“

“Very friendly & inviting environment!
It is December just prior to Christmas and of all the visits my friends and I have made to dine at Dish,
This was the absolute BEST meal of all time here. Very fresh! Each different entree prepared to perfection! Dish is always dependable, but each of us commented on how good each entree was this time.We felt that the wait staff person truly needed help, but she managed quite well considering that she was all alone. Might have been change of shifts.“

“Amazing food and service. Love this place. ❤“

“Family and I have been coming here for ages. Yeah some things are pricy, but most have decent portions. Food a little bit on the greasy side though. I like their braised tofu most. Their porridge is good with big chunks of yam! Parking can be a bit difficult to find at times.“

“As a big fan of Boiling point, I would say..”GUYSSSS THIS IS A MUST TRY FOR ONE LIVING “

“Perfect portion for one person. The free tea was a nice touch too!“

“We were recently passing through Pasadena and boy, did Yelp come through for us when picking a place to eat! Craft by Smoke & Fire in Old Town Pasadena ended up being the perfect choice. It was a beautiful evening and we opted to sit outside. We were lucky enough to have Stephanie as our server…and also lucky to be there during happy hour – you gotta love a 2 for 1 drink special! It was hard to choose between all the craft cocktails, but we ended up ordering Lulu Lemons which were excellent! I play mixologist when entertaining at home, and when I expressed interest in recreating this drink for our friends, Stephanie was kind enough to share the recipe! The menu is full of yummy Texas-style BBQ options made from locally sourced meat, and it was hard to choose. We landed on brisket grilled cheese with a side of mac & cheese (can you have too much cheese?!) and a harvest brisket salad. Both were so delicious. The outside table area was pretty full and although she was covering a lot of tables, Stephanie was knowledgeable when guiding us through the menu, super attentive and personable to boot! We look forward to returning…and to checking out their Anaheim location as well!“

“This is the 2nd time I frequent this establishment and it doesn’t disappoint. The food is delicious and fairly priced. The customer service is friendly and knowledgeable about the menu. I highly recommend it.“
