Restaurants in Temple City

“Delicious Chengdu never disappoints. I love their pork with shishito peppers, and the mapo tofu was divine as always. Delicious Chengdu is my favorite restaurant in the SGV.”

“Need to make reservations, otherwise need to wait almost hour”

“If you’re craving an authentic bowl of Beef Noodle Soup, this is it. The broth is infused with peppercorns, giving it an incredibly bold, numbing aroma that takes me straight back to those nostalgic Taiwanese military village (Juancun) flavors. It’s rich, punchy, and unlike any other broth in LA!
I love that the Lu Wei (braised delicacies) is served as its own standalone dish. You can really taste the mastery of seasoning in every bite of the beef and tofu.
To round it all out, you have to order the Radish Chicken Soup. It’s crystal clear and carries that perfect, natural sweetness from the daikon. It’s the ultimate palate cleanser after the tingly heat of the beef noodles. Perfectly balanced and so comforting!”

“每道菜餚皆是無可挑剔的精緻和美味”

“For quick service Vietnamese & Chinese, Happy Buddha hit the spot. Shredded pork rolls were texturally nice but could've used a bit more flavor. A touch of chili sauce was a welcome addition. Beef chow fun was yummy, and though I was initially thrown by what I think was crumbled Beyond patties in the mix it all came together nicely. Stir fry green beans with tofu included way more tofu than the picture let on, in a positive way. Sweet & spicy fried tofu was also a mountain of tofu in delicious sauce. $75 with tip for all 4 dishes, and though only two of use were dining in we easily could've fed 4 with that amount of food. Super friendly service, and worth noting that food came out lightning fast. Will certainly be coming back!”

“Didn't know they had more than one restaurant in the L.A. area. This is the second one we tried and it didn't disappoint, it was just as good as the first time and second times we visited the Koreatown location. The service, the food, everything is great.”

“Surprisingly spacious inside! They do have a rear lot, but street parking is probably your best bet. It’s definitely more of a social hangout than a quiet study spot, but the layout works well. Despite the crowd, service was efficient, I had my two drinks in less than 10 minutes. The peach oolong was a pleasant surprise and better than expected.”

“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.”

“Omg! The lemon pepper boneless wings are to die for! So delights they are addicting, yummy, great service and affordable”

“I highly recommend!!! My experience here was amazing. The food was excellent. It’s such a cozy environment and everyone that worked there was extremely friendly. I will definitely be visiting again.”

“How does this place have no reviews? Probably the greatest hot pit in Houston. Different levels of Wagyu. Includes many sides seafood drinks desert it’s just awesome. Great service. Great vibe. Amazing place. Keep up the good work.”

“Bathroom was clean and smelled good despite the frequent traffic. I have never had anything but pastramis and fries from the hat but the turkey burger was recommended by my aunt.

I am not a fan of turkey or turkey burgers but I tried it anyway. It was delicious and juicy. Probably the best burger I’ve had all year.”

“Great food, fast service. Sign up for their automatic text and get food deals. Worth the saving. They have multiple locations so easy access to all restaurants.”

“Facility is clean. Raw meat is decent. It is better if there is more selections of meat and veggi. Cooked food and side dishes are good. Free soda. Price is reasonable for the food offered. Helpers are attentive.”

“I Couldn't find a solid review to help me order but its so close to home i took a chance. Saw a Bulgogi beef on the menu which is a familiar Dish to me so i quickly ordered That and decided to sit down. A couple of minutes later, and i have a Nice Healthy bowl of Rice Topped with a heap of BEEF! It was delicious! Thank YOU!”

“Delicious restaurant and great atmosphere! 😋”

“I have gotten takeout from here before but actually got to dine in recently when I came here for lunch on a weekday with some coworkers. It was full inside but luckily, a table was leaving so we got our table without a wait.

We ordered the Beef Rolls, Signature Green Onion Bread, Stir Fried Onions and Beef, and some vegetables. It is a small restaurant that is family style so only one server and the food wasn't served that quickly especially since it was full inside. The food was ready around 20 minutes after ordering.

The portions are all decent and looked delicious. The beef rolls were very good, crispy skin and not stingy with the beef inside. The signature green onion bread was also very good, texture is the perfect balance of hard and soft. The only thing was that the vegetables and the stir fried beef was oily. Both tasted good but very oily.

Overall, still a great place to go with friends or family. I recommend the beef rolls. They tasted very authentic.”

“Muy satisfecho con la atención para ser mi primera vez en ese lugar muy rico o comida y todo excelente Muchas felicidades a todos”

“The most delicious crepes that you will ever eat in California.
If you have tried authentic Japanese crepes (in Japan), these taste exactly the same!!
All of the staff is super friendly and their service is quick.”

“Great food. Love their Banh Mi and Spring Rolls.”

“wow. this hit hard. the fish taco was beyond words, the tacos were so juicy, and the prices were really good. the green salsa is honestly the best salsa ive ever had. we also got a torta and burrito (not pictured) which were amazing. we will definitely be coming back.”

“What stood out most was the relaxed and casual vibe of the restaurant. It felt like a great place to grab a quick meal, hang out with friends, or stop by during a road trip. Overall, In-N-Out Burger delivered fresh food, fast service, and a genuinely enjoyable dining experience. Definitely a place I’d visit again whenever I’m nearby.”

“Martinis have hair in the vodka. Not good for business. Bartender is rude”

“Muy rica la comida Tun servicio excelente”

“😘😘😘😘😘The taste is very good.”

“Although the restaurant is often crowded, the wait staff are usually responsive and able to attend to customers' needs.”

“Great local hangout! The regulars are fun and the bartenders are entertaining! Great service too!🥰😍😘”

“Hit the drive thru. Ordered a surf and turf burrito, which is basically a shrimp burrito with asada. I asked for crema in it but I think they forgot or put too little, but it was still delicious. Been coming here for decades and food is always solid.”

“If you eat the Qinzhen rice noodles here, you will no longer miss home, or you will miss home even more! Soft and chewy, the aroma of chili oil will make you linger!”

“This old shop is very delicious and cheap. 50 pieces of leek, fish, and dumplings are only $20. 50 pieces of cabbage, pork, and meat are only $16. The haggis soup is only $18.99. The fish casserole is only $21.99. Everyone is welcome to try it. Pass the password. It’s delicious😋 face to face.”

“This is one of our go to Ramen places in San Diego, we love it! Our kids love it for the free ice cream at the end!”

“Very nice ice cream. Rich flavors and smell so good. Also, one scoop is very big. :)”

“Ordered beef needle, shanxi knife cut fried noodles and saliva chicken. Flavor is 100% what you get in Taiwan. Price and portion is not bad! Recommend all dishes.”

“This place is REAL good! Small space, but VERY wonderful staff, and extremely good food at a decent price, tucked away in a small corner that people easily pass by, if they don't bother stopping in. But hey, that's just their loss.”

“Small family owned business, super super tasty and worth it. In the span of 7 days, we ate here twice. Everyone is very nice, and considering it is like one person (big respect) in the kitchen, everything is made super fresh and quick comparatively. The 3he house noodles, beef noodle soup, cat eat noodles are all very tasty and the noodles have good texture. The popcorn chicken is also good but lacking 椒盐 for my taste but that's fine because I can add more at home or dip in the sauce.”

“Amazing cuisine and service”

“The worker there was awesome. Had a great sense of humor and made the experience that much more fun. Sadly didn't get her name, but she definitely is a good worker.”

“I stopped by El Super Burrito Jr. on a Tuesday and tried the menudo—honestly, it was really good and super tasty. Rich flavor, tender meat, and just the right amount of spice. Definitely one of the better bowls of menudo I’ve had in a while. I’ll be back for sure.”

“All of the complaints about this place are the competition. The food, and the overall prices are a bargain indeed! The menu is old school delicious!!”

“my friends and I come here every Tuesday before the bowling league starts across the street at Action Lanes.

I love this spot. The owner and his son are super kind and you can tell they love their craft.

The Asada Fries/Nachos are my favorite, but the battered fish and shrimp tacos are a very, very close second.

My go-to order every week is a pina y limon agua fresco with one fish taco and a plate of asada fries.

Recently though, I was recommended a shrimp plate that absolutely slapped. Ate half before bowling and saved the rest for next day's lunch.

These guys DO NOT SKIMP. I feel like very mexican place in LA gives you like 15% protein and 85% rice and beans. Here, they give you at least 60% protein with rice and beans on the side to complement the meal.

Absolutely phenomenal”

“customer service and delicious tea ! love this place!”

“Great friendly local bar and grill. Extensive menu, great Taiwanese food.”

“Came here on a Tuesday night for some dinner with family since we've been wanting to try this place for a while. Its located in a small plaza that is a bit hard to see unless you look carefully when driving by. But this is the only restaurant here so there's plenty of parking. It was pretty empty when we came so we got seated right away. They have a good amount of tables and the interior is nice.

Their menu is not that big so it's wasn't too hard to decide what to order. They do have some pricey items here though. We got the Galbi Seolleongtang (25.99), Bulgogi Bibimbap (21.99), Tonkatsu (19.99), and Yangji Seolleongtang (17.99). They were served pretty quick and they also gave side dishes. The side dishes were actually pretty good and has free refills. The bibimbap was alright, tasted like other bibimbap places. The Galbi seolleongtang has two large galbi in it and the soup and meat are nicely seasoned. As for the regular seolleongtang, it is on the bland side since you need to add your own salt and pepper. It also has some vermicelli with it. But the seolleongtang was pretty mid. The tonkatsu had some good sauce on it and was crispy and not too dry or hard to chew. But I have had better tonkatsu before. The portions are all reasonable for this price and economy though and we enjoyed it. I just thought the seolleongtang would have come with rice but I guess this place doesn't do that.

I think this is an authentic Korean place to try since they do have a good assortment of soups and other entres to order. The only thing was I did notice some small gnats flying around while we were eating. It wasn't a lot but it did bother me a bit. This isn't a spectacular place I would crave but it is a decent spot.”

“One of the best tasting boba drink out there. After working at various restaurant and good boba place one tends to become picky about their food but this place really hit the spot. The drink is not diluted and very consistent. Getting the thermal cup helps because the ice melts was slower, preserving the concentration of the drink. Definitely one of my top to go places.”

“The red salsa and green is absolutely delicious!!! Friendly girls/women working there...delicioso hardshell crispy fried real BEEF taco's with guacamole and I love the Taquitos, the beef one... thats my favorite, you can also get them with chicken or potato, many things to choose from, all very delicious, if I could give a shout out to Rosie...a sweet Girl and a BiG hello to Joe!! YOU ALL ARE FANTASTIC THERE AT PEPE'S IN SAN GABRIEL!!!
Great food well-made and fantastic portions...very filling food...clean station where you help yourself to your flavorful salsa and great selections of drinks to choose from...LOVE PEPE'S!”

“Honestly, I’ve driven past this place so many times and never noticed it until we stopped to shop at Super A next door. It’s a super unassuming, small bakery, but it’s clearly a local favorite because it was pretty busy when we walked in!

They specialize in sponge cakes, and the shelves are fully stocked with all different kinds. We tried a few things, but the standout was definitely the Grenade Cake. It’s got this great crispy top that gives it a nice texture which is definitely unique.

We also picked up an ube sponge cake. It was incredibly fluffy and light, and the flavor was spot on. They have a bunch of different flavors to choose from if ube isn't your thing.

The service was friendly and efficient, too. Definitely a solid little hidden gem in Temple City if you're looking for fresh, airy cakes that aren't overly sweet!”

“Food is delicious. There is plenty of variety to choose from. Though I did not get to see the full menu. I only ordered from what was available in front of me. There is plenty of parking. Place was full. There were other families dining in while I ordered to go. Portion size is also very good. Service was great. I definitely want to go back and see what else is offered.”

“I wanted to try this place for the longest time. The No. 44 filled me up, as well as satisfied my taste buds.”

“Looking for a taste of Hong Kong in the SGV? I checked out Alice’s Kitchen in Temple City and it really feels like dining on the streets of Hong Kong. The ambiance is super cool, with fake storefronts and shop signs that set the vibe. The menu is large, with a mix of Hong Kong cafe classics and Cantonese dishes. My friend ordered the fish maw soup and I had the baked pork chop rice. Both were delicious, generously portioned, and very reasonably priced. Service is standard for an HK cafe.”

“If you love Demon Slayer, it's a must that you pay this location a visit. They also have a good variety of merch even if you don't order food. All the staff were friendly and welcoming. Highly recommend visiting prior to the end of July.”

“Manager does not comply with rules and discouts at this starbucks. Your supposed to get 25 reward points every time you use reusable cup. Staff is not like him”

“Great green teas bobas and a great place for family games😊”

“If you are a snow crab lover, then this is the place. All you can eat snow crab legs for $40 is well worth it. Not to mention other items such as crawfish, stone crabs. Lots of other items to choose from.”
