41 Best Breakfast Restaurants near San Gabriel

“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!“

“I recently visited Curb Grill in Montrose, and I can’t stop raving about the experience! This family-owned gem is a must-visit for anyone craving high-quality food in a welcoming environment. I ordered the breakfast quesadilla with sausage and bacon, and it was hands-down one of the best I’ve ever had—packed with fresh, flavorful ingredients, perfectly cooked eggs, and a generous portion that left me satisfied. Every bite was a testament to the care and quality they put into their dishes.

The restaurant itself was impeccably clean, from the dining area to the counter, creating a comfortable and inviting atmosphere. The bright, well-maintained space made the whole experience even more enjoyable. What truly set Curb Grill apart, though, was the owner, Albert, whose friendliness made us feel like part of the family from the moment we walked in. His warm hospitality and genuine enthusiasm for connecting with customers elevated the visit to something special.

I wholeheartedly recommend Curb Grill to all Montrose locals looking for a fantastic meal and a great vibe. This place has earned a spot as a regular go-to for me and my family—we’ll definitely be back time and time again“

“Delish! Go early; it's a must try!“

“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. ❤️“

“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.“

“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. 😋“

“Was in the area and thought I would stop by since I have been following them on Instagram. I opted to go to the bakery and get a breakfast sandwich for lunch. I’ve had lots of vegan breakfast sandwiches and this one was better than most. I liked that they put it on croissants instead of bagels. I got a chocolate chip cookie to go and it was addicting. Their sandwich combinations sounded really interesting so I’d love to come back sometime and try something savory. “

“Very pleasant staffs and the food was great and delicious at a very reasonable prices. I'm so impressed by the way they greeted you and make you very comfortable. They pay so much attentions to their patrons regardless of your ethnicity.“

“Service: Waitress was on point! Friendly Personality. Giovanni, very courteous and was very helpful..“

“Best steak and bacon breakfast burrito anywhere, and 1 burrito is good for 2 people…HUGE“

“We ordered the croissantwich w/ avocado and the breakfast burriot w/ chorizo, both were 10/10, the burrito was one of the best in LA imo. Food came out quick and Adam was super friendly, great lowkey spot. Dont forget to get the salsa verde“

“Angelica, the host. Is always very friendly and attentive to our needs. Not only is she beautiful but also makes us feel welcome. The food is always great and on time. Love this place. Our servers are also very friendly and courteous. Thank you all !!!“

“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“

“I’ve been cutting out refined sugar and it’s been difficult but I came across this place and I was able to have a wonderful chocolate shake with almond milk and cocoa, yes it had sugar but pure cane sugar. It was a great alternative and it taste so yummy! I was also able to add toppings, healthy toppings, strawberries, blueberries, etc. so good! Can’t wait to go back❤️“

“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.“

“Anyone who's lived in Duarte forever, knows this place is a gem! I've been eating here with friends, family, even solo since 2010. This place has changed a lot, and seen some of my favorite staff members leave and grow, which is bittersweet. This location will always be my favorite, the quality is great, and they always seem to hire such caring and attentive staff. This location will always be my first choice, love ya'll : ).“

“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!“

“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.“

“Me encantan sus chilaquiles y muy buenas porciones a precios accesibles“

“I had a small chicken teriyaki salad which was more than enough. It was absolutely delicious and the chicken was cooked perfectly. My husband had the daily special of baked ham with veggies and said they were delish as well. We will definitely be returning.“

“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“

“Good food, good service and reasonable price 🥰“

“The cafeteria is a standard food hall with lots of seating and tables.

The main reason I go here is because of their Cali Cob salad is phenomenal. As a person that has tried lots of high end salads at other establishments, this salad is one of the best cobs I’ve ever had.

Almost as great as Joey’s in DTLA. The vegetables are very fresh, the dressing is excellent. I love that it has a lot of chicken pieces that are delicious and egg along with bacon pieces. It’s a solid salad for the price and one of my favorite salads of all time. I highly recommend it.

I will definitely come back to eat that salad & I’ll continue to try their other menu items.“

“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.“

“My sister just Introduced me to Crepes & Grapes Cafe Great choice sister 👍👍“

“If you're looking for a good spot to eat close to the DTLA court houses, check out the Galero Grill in the Cathedral complex. A five minute walk from the court houses with good food at reasonable prices. Plus, there's a lovely patio with tables to enjoy your meal in peace (other than the Cathedral chimes on the hour). It's run by the Patina group so, although the food isn't fancy, the quality is very good.“

“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.“

“muy ricos los desayunos se los recomiendo ☕️🥞“

“The pancakes were undercooked in the middle, which was disappointing.
I took one bite and left them.
The country fried steak was okay, but the sauce really helped the dish.
The atmosphere was nice, and the interior felt cozy.“

“The food was great, great little place“

“We love having breakfast here on our way home from Yoga class. We go 1-2 times per week. The place is always busy, but has lots of room so we are always seated quickly. We are treated so nicely by all the staff. Our meals are served quickly. Great food and great value.“
