“AMAZING!! THE BEST PLACE IN SOUTH EL MONTE!! TRY THE LOMO SALTADO ANDA THE TIKI FRIES“

“I have been coming here for over a year
2-3x week . Adriana y Adela always treat me great . Greet me by name and prepare my food amazing . I appreciate how clean they keep the restaurant and their energy they bring to this restaurant.“

“Kfc is so good that I wish I could eat it everyday (well not everyday) ;-)“

“this is, hands down, some of the most interesting and delicious fusion food you’ll try. Anything they put together is thoughtful, layered and full of nuance. get the sauce sampler packs; and try everything on the menu; but the birria is to die for.

It’s so affordable, too; honestly if I could eat here every day, I would.“

“Fabulous chicken Sando!!! Absolutely delicious. Everyone is ALWAYS SO FRIENDLY. I try and go as often as I can. 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰“

“We had an amazing time here. The food came out pretty fast and it all was so delicious. There’s a game you can play when you first order and if you manage to stop the timer on exactly 10 seconds you get a free combo. I didn’t win but I thought that was such a fun addition to the experience. We ordered a lot but my favorite was the spicy chicken sandwich with Mac and cheese and pickles. It sounds insane but was pretty spicy and didn’t taste damp or dry, it was literally perfect. I can’t recommend this place enough!“

“Decent foods that make you feel like you’re eating healthy for the day. Fresh juices/drinks.“

“They have really great flavor for their chicken. Their sauce is top notch. I am not a fan of thousand island but their sauce is really good! I love that it doesn't have pickles. Oh and the seasoning for their fries! Delicious and mouth watering flavors! Their bread is the perfect softness and there is enough chicken for every bite! Even the coleslaw they use taste great! Again, not a fan of coleslaw but theirs is a subtle flavor that just complement the slider sandwich.
I am a big wuss when it comes to spicy food but even their no spice selection is loaded with flavor!“

“Came in during a busy time and was a bit hangry, however the staff was amazing. Ray and Manny one of the few amazing workers showed such hospitality it instantly lifted my mood and made me feel so welcomed to eat here thank you guys so much for your service!“

“This place is truly a hidden gem. The chicken is always so flavorful, and their salsa never misses! it’s consistently delicious every single time. Honestly, it beats a lot of the big chain spots. We love coming here, and the prices are very reasonable. Portions are generous too, we almost always leave with leftovers for the next day.“

“It is kind of expensive, its like 16 for 8 pieces, but you can taste the quality. Its better than chicken day or bbq chicken the meat is juicier and the skin is crispier. The fries are pretty good too and they give you ranch for free. I got the red disco its good not as sweet as other chains which I like.“

“The lamb gyros are the best things ever. 😊“

“Hidden Gem in Pasadena! Very Yum!“

“Stopped by bb.q Chicken in Temple City for a pickup order and had a really good experience.

I ordered the Feel Crunch Wings and Soy Garlic Wings. Both were really good! The Feel Crunch Wings were nice and crispy with a satisfying crunch, while the Soy Garlic Wings had that savory, slightly sweet garlic flavor that makes you keep reaching for another piece. I also liked that the wings stayed crispy even after bringing them home.

But what really stood out was the lady working at the counter. She was extremely friendly, polite, and helpful. Even though this was just a pickup order, she made me feel welcomed and provided genuinely great customer service. Sometimes it’s the small interactions that leave the biggest impression, and she definitely deserves to be recognized!

Food was ready, everything was packed nicely, and the whole pickup process was quick and smooth.

Great chicken + great customer service = easy 5 stars. Definitely coming back!“

“The chicken tasted the same from when I was a kid. It’s been over 20 years and they haven’t changed. When I walked in and saw the wooden orange chairs, all I could do was nod my head up and down thinking “ yuuuup this is how I remember it” It was a pretty cool moment and an AWESOME TREAT🍗🍗🍗❣️❣️❣️I’ve gone 2 Sunday’s in a row, my Pioneer Chicken craving has been accomplished👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾“

“Great food priced right! One of our favorites places to eat at’“

“*YUM* is all I have to say!! We adore this place, and friends who have moved away always beg to go here for chicken when they come home to visit. The chicken falls off the bone, their fried tofu is to die for! ������. You cannot go wrong here! But pay attention to their hours. They close mid-day for a few hours.“

“I was looking for a new Chinese fast food place. I was worried about the dishes not being fresh. After looking for some reviews, I found this place. I decided to give it try.Staff was friendly. Menu was pretty clear. The dishes looked good and appetizing. I got the 3 items combo. All tasted good and fresh. I'm happy with the quality which is really important to me.I definitely can recommend this place!“

“Came in as it was my first time Alissa took my order and she was amazing and had great customer service she was very helpful as it was my first time here she made it a great experience. Very clean restaurant and food was really good and fresh. Will be coming back“

“best chicken ever tender ,juicy crunchy! mmm!“

“Never been to a Dave’s Hot Chicken before, but this is my niece’s favorite fast food restaurant so it was suggested we come here for lunch.

I was not hungry so just split a chicken tender and fries with my sister, while the nieces and nephews ordered their own combos.

The chicken tender I ate was good, would considered trying it in the future. It was definitely better with Dave’s Hot Honey, which I think is the same brand we order a gallon at a time for work with our banquet orders.

Quality whole pieces of chicken and good spice blends, I can taste why it is a favorite. The fries are decent on their own, but next level with Hot Honey or Dave’s Sauce or Reaper Ranch.

Price point is higher than a McD, but quality is also higher. Worth it for the quality received.

5 stars for the food.

4 out of 5 overall.“

“Outstanding chicken recipes and boba milk tea is to die for !“

“Our first time ever Trying the Vietnamese food! One word ; THE BEST!!“

“Not cheap, but you will get what you pay for. My Thanksgiving, Prime ribs are always from this place. This Thanksgiving was almost 41 lbs. USDA prime.“

“The service was COMPLETELY unacceptable. An employee was rude, speaking in a language I can’t recognize and started yelling at me simply because I didn't understand what she was trying to say. Why get angry and keep screaming when customers don't understand? This business is located in LA—if an obvious communication barrier happens, staff should try to bridge it instead of continuing to yell in the same language at a confused customer. I can't believe I was treated this way. Do we now need to learn EVERY LANGUAGE ON EARTH just to get basic service?“

“The best quality meat 🍖 👍“

“Such a great hospitality! During this difficult times I Loved the fact that today they were so special with the costumers and shared a fresh cut 🌹.“

“The fried chicken is crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside, absolutely delicious! The burger is packed with flavor, with a thick and juicy patty and soft bun. Generous portions, well-packaged, and delivered quickly. Very satisfied and will definitely order again! 好吃 汉堡好大啊“

“Really good Peruvian Food we had the whole chicken 2 of them and 3 Lomo saltados with rice n beans homemade flour tortillas nd all the sauces they had were really good. Delicious grub..“

“Our food was exceptionally delicious! Wonderful flavors and delicious cucumber mint agua fresca too! Also fun, cozy atmosphere inside too. You can tell when you’re there it’s a very popular eatery, and for good reason! I’ve been there twice in as many weeks and I can’t wait to go again! 😁“

“I ordered the boneless honey garlic chicken for dinner. It tasted great! There was a good amount of glaze on each piece and the batter was still nice and crunchy even though we had it 30 minutes after picking it up from the store. Best part is it’s mess free and easy to eat because it’s boneless.“

“The chicken was freshly prepared with a light, crispy batter. I must admit I would've liked a bit more seasoning on it. My husband wished that there would've been an onion and pickle option for his sandwich, but the hot sauce helped. The place was very clean and well stocked... including the bathroom🎉. My server was kind and helpful... which I needed since I'd never been there.“

“I haven’t been there in years but tonight we decided to go tonight it did not disappoint. The chicken is yummy.“

“Thank you for sponsoring our Sonora baseball team and the boys love to hang out for team dinner“

“Their food is amazing. It’s so delicious!!Everything I tried has not disappointed me.Their fries and wings had so much flavor and were crispy. The pho soup was just perfect that you didn’t even have to add anything else to give it flavor so you can enjoy it just like that.“

“Fast service very polite staff“

“chicken tortilla soup very good“

“Some of the best, mouth watering rotisserie chicken i have ever had. Always gotta get it with fries, beans and rice! No other ways about it. You want some authentic Peruvian Pollo a la Brasa? Toyitos in downey is exactly what you're looking for. They also got excellent alfajores and 2 liter Inca Cola. If you're looking for a good family meal place and you want some delicious chicken, give this place top priority. Before you ask, yes they give you just dark meat if you ask...I'm pretty sure it's a bit extra though. Anyways Toyitos is fuego. 9.5/10
Only took a point 5 off because whenever I finish I ALWAYS WANT MORE and that's not good for my wallet...or my health lol“

“muy bien, lo recomiendo es buena. sólo que hay una que me atendió se puso un poco prepotente pero salió bien“

“The service was absolutely quick and the food was amazing“

“It’s been a great experience every time with outstanding customer service!!! No complaints here—great job!!!“

“I absolutely love the flavor of this chicken. Great customizable heat. I've ordered both the mild and the medium and both are delicious. Tiny little hole in the wall so I always get the order to go. My only issue is the chicken portion seems to keep getting a tad smaller with each visit. Probably more a sign of the times than an actual complaint.“

“The best deal for a party. They supply dishes, utensils and napkins. Not to mention tortillas & salsa’s. Nothing left for you to do but sit back and enjoy.👍 the chicken is fabulous ❤️“

“My experience at Ace Burger today was nothing short of amazing! I ordered the chicken tenders, fries, and corn on the cob, and everything was a perfect 10. The chicken tenders especially stood out—they had the perfect amount of spice and breading. On top of the fantastic food, the woman who made the food and the gentleman (I believe they’re the owners) were incredibly welcoming and thoughtful. Their kindness made the visit even more special. Wishing much success to this wonderful place!!

P.S. Food was so good I forgot to take pictures 😂❤️“

“We ordered dinner for three for pick up and everything was delicious: Meat and Potatoes plate, Veggie Plate and the spicy veggie rice bowl exceeded our expectations. We live a short drive away and just discovered Kismet because they for some reason don't come up in a Google search for Mediterranean food, which this menu is definitely a version of. A great healthy alternative for our part of Los Angeles.“

“This spot sells mesquite grilled chicken as a street stall. Prices are reasonable and their seasoning is SO good. Very good street food.

their chicken was charred and cooked perfectly, still juicy with each bite.

Included is: Grilled peppers, some salsa which was light and easy to dip, grilled tortillas, pickled peppers and onions, Spanish rice, and some of the best beans I've had. Beans were smoky sweet and flavorful with chicharron inside.

Would come back for some bomb grilled chicken that's for sure!

Entire chicken and all the sides were only $23. Cash or zelle accepted

Parking: Near the food4less“

“This fried chicken place tastes much better than the one next door, and the food comes out quickly. They have many flavors for the chicken wings, especially the garlic soy sauce, which I absolutely love. The cashier is also very friendly. Very good.“
