“El pollo loco is always a great place to go when you want Mexican like food.. I typically get the chicken nachos..it used to be 5.00 and now it's 9.65? Not sure why.. probably changed it.. maybe the chicken.. I don't know.. but the people are always nice.“

“10/10 Best KFC spot, I've been coming for more then 10 years, people at this location are great. Always top tier KFC compared to other KFC stores. 19 times out of 20 food is server on time or earlier shown on the app's timer. Any mistake made is taken care of very fast and the workers are always very nice about it. Love this spot and all the people there“

“I'm here just about every other weekend to get takeout for the family. The Indian flavors really come through in an exciting way. The rotisserie chicken is one of the best I've found in LA, and it's not even the best chicken on the menu. Anything with beans are a must-have.“

“The chicken and the customer service are so good, I was getting cucked by one of the employees and I made sure to thank him before I left. Will be coming back ?“

“I had a craving for loaded fries so just went in for an order of their bulgogi fries, and they were so tasty. Crispy fries, good portion of bulgogi, and a perfect balance of flavors. The lady at the register was very friendly. I definitely plan to return for the fried chicken. Parking is valet only, so be prepared with some cash for payment/tip.“

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

“Second time here! First visited after a show at Teragram Ballroom. Here tonight for the Month Bar which is right next door. If you’re from around here or there for shows, please check this place out!

Beautifully crispy chicken and their loaded fries are fantastic. Will be back soon to try new items.“

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

“I loved it!! Everything.. I work a block away and need something that's affordable, that's abundant and actually yummy / decent quality and better pound wings did it. They delivered to me for free, the shrimp garlic spaghetti was delicious, abundant and good quality.. it was my first time and am excited to have found a spot I can go to daily if I wanted too .. drinks could be bigger for the prices but other than that I am in love 💕“

“1. The food quality and quantity perfect. I've had a few burgers and theirs is definitely on my top 3.
2. Owners are very kind and generous. They truly value their customers
3. If you're an Indian, go for medium spicy or spicy. Dont go for too spicy“

“Relax atmosphere, awesome service and good food!“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I absolutely loved this shawarma place! The flavors were spot on, and what really stood out was the French fries tucked inside the shawarma—it gave it such a creamy, unique texture that worked perfectly with the wrap. The chicken was tender, juicy, and full of flavor. Definitely one of the tastiest shawarmas I’ve had in a long time. I’ll be coming back for sure!“

“The food here is pretty good! My friends and I got the Bulgolgi Poutine, Rose Ddeok-Bokki, and the Honey Garlic Wings. I definitely recommend the honey garlic wings, it's super good! The service was great as well-- our server was so sweet and kind, she made sure we were okay. The place is somewhat spacious, there's lots of tables there!“

“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!“

“It is the best vegan restaurant I’ve ever eaten at. Unfortunately there isn’t one where we live. But anytime I am in CA we always go to the one in Riverside.“

“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“

“Great customer service. Great food. Employees doing really good job.

I feel bad for employees because they have to deal with some really rude customers sometimes.

I have daveshot chicken app too. And sometimes eat there everyday.“

“Tried Dave’s Hot Chicken and it was really good!
The chicken was super juicy with a crispy coating and strong flavor. I got medium spice, which was perfect🤤🤤🤤❤️❤️

Sliders were the highlight, fries were just okay. A bit oily, but definitely worth it for the taste.

Overall, a solid spot for spicy chicken 🍗🔥“

“My friends and I came down to LA from the bay area and we stopped by for lunch. The man at the counter was really chill and hospitable and gave us recommendations on the menu. I got the chicken tenders with mac. The mac and cheese was so good, super cheesy. The tenders were super crunchy and seasoned well. My friend really liked the chipotle ranch. Portions were huge, especially the loaded mac buffalo chicken bowl. Would come again!“

“Came for the codfish Sando which is available in limited quantity daily. Staff are really friendly and will help you along with your order should you need any help with your order. The fish burger is really good and the tartare sauce they put on it is amazing. Can also order a side of the daybird sauce that they have and it has a really good umami flavor that goes very well with the fries. Would be back again to try the chicken Sando too.“

“Hidden Gem in Pasadena! Very Yum!“

“happily 😊 surprised. lunch on the run. Good Chicken!“

“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“

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

“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 😂❤️“

“Best service and food, we stopped here on our vacation. Best customer service and really great food, we had burgers, tacos and chicken. Everything was GREAT. I forgot to mention the French fries, they are the BEST fries I've ever had!!“

“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.“

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

“👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍😃👍“

“I kept hearing about people raving about this place as best Hainan Chicken place in SGV. That is saying a lot as SGV is Mecca of authentic Chinese food in SoCal if not USA.

The dining area is a bit limited. There is seating indoors but barely 2 tables and counter seating. There is outdoor seating on the side however.

Hainan chicken will not disappoint. It is just delicately prepared. Tender and flavorful.“

“los tacos de cabeza son los mejores que he probado.Las salsas son muy ricas. El agua de jamaica deliciosa!!!!!“

“One of the best lunch specials in L.A.

Lunch special: 2 piece chicken, rice & beans, xtra side, 2 tortillas, medium drink.

Total: 8.88$

It’s not only a deal, it’s filling, it’s incredibly good, it’s an institution.
Try all these new trendy places all you want but make sure you show love to local places like this.“

“One of the best chicken sliders I’ve ever had. The honey based sauce is to die for. The food slaps hard. I couldn’t recommend this place enough.“

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

“Main Chick Hot Chicken in Pasadena is 🔥 🔥 🔥 meaning 😋 Always fresh and thier chicken taste tasty & crisp! Only drawback is that this particular Nain Chick don't have the seating so either you order togo, uses ubereats or the Doordash! Whichever, their food was amazing & you will be happy!“

“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.“

“The best quality meat 🍖 👍“

“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..“

“*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.“

“Loved the food definitely a must go 🥘😋“
