“The food is so tasty and fresh! Their Ube Cheesecake didn't disappoint and I can taste the Ube afterwards. The Ube Latte is great along with a bit of a Latte Art! And the lady at the counter was kind, patient and helpful!l The inside of this coffee shop is adorable and found this decorative piece tucked away in the back ...“
“When craving for some bun and rolls, this is a great place to be. I like their open-air seating arrangements when dining here. I always order Charbroiled Lemongrass Beef w / Shrimp Egg Rolls, hits the spot for me. Portion wise it’s really good. Their Summer Rolls are also filling, but on the pricier side.“
“Parking/Wait: There is a very small lot with ~5 spots. Never had problems parking there, and there is also a bunch of street parking.Food/Drinks: Their Earl Grey Milk Tea makes my knees weak. Never tried their food, but they have your typical Taiwanese snacks and more. Boba quality is also pretty good (very qq), but be careful if you want some when they are ~1 hr from closing (always out of boba by then). Ambiance/Service: Nice little shop with a bunch of seating. You can definitely study here since there is free wifi. Service is always fast, and I never had to wait more than 5 minutes for my drink. Only one or two people working there at a time, so maybe your mileage will vary.Sustainability: Plastic everything but that's pretty standard. Summary: When I'm back home, this is one of the Boba places that I have to go to. I'm a sucker for Earl Grey, and they do it gooood here.“
“Double lanes, efficient drive-thru.Be advised that going in the left lane means you'll be paying and getting your food by the passenger side of your car.If you have a passenger, this is fine, but if you're a lone driver, be prepared to have to unbuckle and awkwardly try to reach over.Other than that, typical in n out place. Have never eaten inside, looks fairly small. I see people walking up to order all the time and they are always really fast.“
“I ordered the fish taco and a Carne asada crispy taco and both were amazing.The fish taco was overloaded with veggies, but the sauce used with it still made it taste great.The Carne asada was juicy, savory, and tender while being xomplimented with the assorted veggies and cheese.I also go the chicken nachos, but they were okay. I think the flavor and portion was a bit lacking. They put a lot of beans to try and make it a larger amount since there wasn't much chicken in there.“
“Wednesday 1/17/24 Dinner at Delicious Chengdu in Temple City with my friend Jimmy, cousin, and friends. Enjoying seafoods, wine, beers, and whiskey. Delicious seafoods cooked many different ways. Good times in the making!I recommend trying this restaurant.David YoungRestaurant Enthusiast“
“If I could give the service a 10000/5 I would. The entire staff was AMAZING. Attentive, thoughtful and all around kind guys. The chicken tenders and the comeback sauce were so flippen delicious! If you are nearby, this is a MUST STOP destination.“
“Easily the best wine list in Alhambra and possibly the SGV and Pasadena area. If you're looking for a curated wine list with excellent European and American options served alongside a stacked food menu this is your spot. It's not cheap but the quality of the food and service is well worth the price. We've needed elevated dining in Alhambra for years and we finally have it with Yang's.“
“Figured I would write a review after eating here multiple times a week for a couple years. These are the best tacos in Los Angeles. Always high quality and always delicious. The staff is always excellent and everything is always positive. Wishing them all nothing but the best!“
“My husband is from India, so we have eaten a lot of flavorful foods. We both thoroughly enjoyed our meal here. We ordered the five taco plate and sides of corn, mom‘s beans, the vegetarian beans, potatoes with chorizo, corn, and rice. We also tried the coconut rose milk lime drink, and the cucumber salad . My husband, especially like the jeera chicken and corn. I loved the Carne Asada and goat tacos. The green sauce is fabulous. The fresh house made corn tortillas also really take the tacos to the next level. We really enjoyed our meal here. Kudos to the owners for taking such an interesting fusion risk and executing it well.“
“A beautiful date night spot where you can sit beneath string lights nestled in an alleyway, listening to live music (plus, they have outdoor heaters!). Plates are tapas style and the bar is full, with an advantage for mezcal enthusiasts. Bonus- The wait staff is knowledgeable and friendly. They recommended some drinks for us to try and gave us some suggestions on the entrees. The drinks were great and we recommend the sea bass! Nice atmosphere with good service and lots of mezcal.“
“Agnes Restaurant & CheeseryIt was not yet noon. I finished mailing documents at the El Monte post office and wanted to find a place to eat. Suddenly I thought of Pasadena Old Town, which I often went to when I was studying. I hadn’t been there for a long time. The car drove into Old Town and finally found a roadside parking. The toll was an old coin-operated type. I didn't see coins during this trip, and even banknotes were rare. Fortunately, there is an app on the toll that allows you to pay directly. , quickly download the app and pay with a credit card. You can only park for 2 hours, so just browse around as you like.The restaurants in Old Town are completely different from what they used to be. I didn’t know any of them, but I happened to see Agnes Restaurant & Cheesery, a cheese specialty store with bright and clean windows. It was small and elegant. It seemed that it also had a restaurant. When I walked in, I saw a variety of cheese and red wine. Immediately I intuitively chose Primento cheese omelette and cappuccino. After a while, the dishes were all served. They were also small and elegant, which is unimaginable in Los Angeles, which is famous for its big wins.Primento cheese omelette is a refreshing salad next to a yellow egg roll. When you take a bite of the salad, you can never describe it as "refreshing". It is thick and thick, the viscosity of the salad oil is very high, and it also has the heavy taste of traditional Western food, regardless of the saltiness. , quite delicious. The egg rolls are well-cooked, and the crispy shell is filled with rich cheese. It is very fragrant and thick, and has a bit of spiciness. It is different from the egg rolls eaten in other restaurants. It is a paradise for cheese lovers.After that, I walked around the store and saw a lot of cheese and red wine waving at me with a smile. Unfortunately, I couldn't buy them this time. After leaving the store, I felt that my stomach was still empty, so I went to look for food again. After noon, the store started to get busy. Let’s try it for dinner next time.“
“Great atmosphere, definitely a nice date place. The service was great and friendly. I didn’t have a reservation but they were able to give me a seat at the bar. I ordered the onion soup and beef tartare. Supposedly onion soup is their signature dish, but it was really salty, I was a bit disappointed…. Because it was a $20 bowl of soup. The beef tartare was excellent, it would be nice if they offer one extra slice of bread and some more salad leaves. I was happy that they have half bottle of wine that I can order. Wine list is quite nice.“

“Omg!! The food was soooooo delicious I couldn't stop eating it!! Long was so attentive and sweet taking care of us the entire time!! Anything I needed he was there to bring it and help us!! Please come here and if you get Long you'll have not only the best server but best easy time !! :)“
“Love to eat here and it’s such a fun and friendly atmosphere. I come here every week!But i wish there was more clarity on what is completely vegan (topping-wise) im always told something different and its like playing russian rouletteDietary restrictions: Clarification on VEGAN items. Signs or something“
“Celebrated a birthday. 1st time here. 1st peeps there at 11 a.m. on Saturday. Sabrina was amazing. overall, the team was fun and in good spirits. Brisket the best, although not on brunch menu-have to try mac & cheese. Brunch provides lots of tasty options. Eggs and potatoes best when fresh. The pasole and chiliquilies bar tasty. Ribs, brisket, tri tip...homemade sausage breakfast tacos...25 bottomless mimosas w various flavors. Got packed after awhile. Has tvs for sports enjoyment and patio. Must go!Parking: Parking lot across street, meter parking on street“
“Came here to try their Pan de Elote and their Chocolate Cake. The Pan de Elote was amazing - specially topped with ice cream! The Chocolate Cake was too dense and sweet for my liking but definitely coming back for their Pan de Elote! They have their own lot so parking was easy for us.“
“Lots of food/drink/dessert choices in the buildingVegetarian options: The restaurants have some decent vegetarian choicesParking: Parking lot behind buildingKid-friendliness: They will totally want to try all the dessert and drinksWheelchair accessibility: There is a wheelchair elevator near front entrance“
“Try to get here as early as you can! I got here probably at 9.40 AM-ish. Definitely a pricey pastry BUT worth to try (and come back to). Probably one of the best croissants I’ve ever had in LA. Flake to perfection, inside is very buttery soft and fluffy. Atmosphere is very cozy and nice to work.“
“Food quality-wise, i can tell how this reataurant has been surviving for really a long time. Since my little sons cannot eat spicy food, I tried to find non-spicy food and ordered. Lamb skew: i am picky with lamb and this dish was really good. No strong smell, not too chewy, properly seasoned. Kungpao chicken: not spicy version i think. Sauce flavor is just properly sweet, chicken is tender, nuts are also properly cooked. Radish and beef soup: this would be very healthy. Ox tail might be cooked inside for a long time(asian way) and i can taste the deep flavor. Potato slice dish(forgot the name): although it was not my sons' favorite, i think it is tasty enough. Nothing really special to describe. Price: 4 dishes total 91$ including 18% tips. INCLUDING TIPS........ can you not show me a screen with minimum 18% tip while it is a takeout order....? Customized 0 tip right in front of staff when they are looking at me is really tricky.“
“Family owned and operated truck located in Boyle Heights / East LA area that specializes in tacos arabes and goodies from Puebla in general. The tacos arabes were a result of Lebanese immigrants to the area and boy are they delicious. I came here later on a Thursday night so it wasn't very busy and it was pretty chill. Just a few other people around me. The folks here were friendly and helpful. I ordered:A taco arabe especiale- their signature taco with their marinated roast pork on this soft flower tortilla. This was topped Oaxacan cheese and slices of avocado (especiale). There was this chipotle sauce on top of everything. The sauce added some smokiness to an already great flavor and texture profile. I really liked that flour tortilla. Quesadilla de flor de calabaza - zucchini blossoms with melted Oaxacan cheese inside a blue corn tortilla. Love corn and I love this. Nice and chewy with earthy and slightly sweet flavors to go along with their delicious salsaDefinitely recommend for tacos/ quesadillas etc etc or if you are just in the mood for something a little different.“
“Such a cute spot for coffee and lunch. They have good sandwiches, croissant, and coffee. Indoor and outdoor seatings available.I ordered:1. Matcha latte with oatmilk2. Chicken pesto sandwich3. El doe sotelo - egg whites, roasted and fresh tomatoes, fresh cilantro, avocado and olive oil. Black beans on the side. This is arepas for breakfast with the choice of scramble eggPaid street parking is available for this Pasadena downtown area.“
“Nice service and really good vegan food. We had 'sumo sushi burrito' and 'naughty fries'.Vegetarian options: Everything is vegan..Parking: No street parking on the street but around, paid parking right next the restaurant.“
“This was easily one of the best seafood paellas I’ve tried (I have tried various in Spain as well!). Sangria was delicious as well, not overly sweet which is how we prefer it. Service was impeccable, we are excited to return to this gem in Pasadena.“
“Delicious food and friendly service. Ordered to go, but ended up staying and eating in the patio area which has heat lamps. This place is small and no indoor dining.Will definitely go back!Parking: Street parking only in a crowded neighborhood.“
“MAAAANNNN I decided to stop in on a whim and was blown away.. some of the best crunchiest and seasoned chicken I've ever had.... I'm a Black guy born and raised in Chicago I know my fried chicken lol !!!I wish I could pack this place up and take them back to Vegas with me!!“
“Nice place hidden in plain sight. Lot of random candy toppings I never heard of before.Had to wait 30min but I guess you gotta try out these unique ice cream places at least once.They also lit real candles and incense indoors with lofi jazz beat music.“
“The sandwich’s are amazing with a great portion size. I highly recommend getting the lemonade it’s nice and fresh it doesn’t taste like that fake lemonade other places have. The old lady (I forgot her name) she had an amazing service and jokes. This is my opinion and it might sound stupid but she makes you feel like you’re a regular even if you don’t go often. 10/10“
“Nice spot on the south end of York to share beers and hang with friends! Plenty of seating indoors with a nice enclosed patio in back. Darts, board games, etc. seating for two or large parties. Pizza is solid with a good variety of in-house beers.?Parking: May have to look around for parking on weekends. Not too far away, though.“
“From the moment I stepped into C & R Fresh Foods, I was greeted with a warmth and hospitality that is all too rare these days. The owner, an embodiment of kindness and attentiveness, went above and beyond to ensure my visit was nothing short of exceptional. It's not just the food that makes C & R Fresh Foods stand out--it's the heart and soul poured into every aspect of the customer experience. The sandwiches, oh the sandwiches! They were a revelation in freshness and flavor, crafted with ingredients that speak of quality and care. Each bite was a testament to the dedication behind the counter, making it clear that this isn't just food; it's a passion. And then there were the smoothies--simply put, some of the best I've ever had. Each sip was a burst of fresh, vibrant flavors, perfectly blended to create a symphony in a cup. It's evident that C & R Fresh Foods doesn't compromise when it comes to quality, and these smoothies are a delicious testament to that commitment. In a world where the personal touch is often lost, C & R Fresh Foods stands as a shining example of what happens when excellence meets empathy. The owner Marco is not just running a business; they're nurturing a community, one satisfied customer at a time. If you're looking for a place that combines the best of taste, quality, and human kindness, look no further. C & R Fresh Foods is a gem that deserves every accolade and then some.“
“Chito's is my new spot to go when I'm craving food that is authentic, fresh, delicious, and as I like to say "comida de casa". This spot is at their home and they have a beautiful set up 3 tables and lots of chairs for people to sit down and enjoy their food while enjoying the California sun and weather. As soon as we walked in we felt welcomed and they asked us if this was our first time, if it is, you'll get a delicious free taco (unheard of in LA)! They kindly take credit cards and Apple Pay, making it all that much easier to go and eat a delicious meal. The food was FANTASTIC. We ordered the ceviche, the shrimp, fish, and marlin taco, and the fish basket. Everything was soooo delicous tasty, flavorful. I'm so happy we found this gem, I will be placing my order ahead next time!“
“Best authentic Mexican ice cream in the area. I refuse to go elsewhere. The store owner is so sweet, and the business is family owned. The prices are great and affordable. They have an adorable patio outside there shop. They are also dog friendly!“
“Located right on Green before Wilson, only street parking available. Absolutely love their Thai Tea soft serve. They do have other flavor drinks available, both hot and cold. Freshly made cookies also for sale. You do have the option to make the soft serve into a float with different tea options. If it’s your first time here get the “Trophy” which includes all the toppings except for Oreo crumbs. No tables or public bathroom, just a single bench seat while you wait for your order.“
“Omg, i don't care where you've had asada fries from because this place is hands down another level of flavor. It's my first time here and I had the lomo saltado fries and an Inca cola and i have nothing but great things to say about the flavors that are throughout the whole plate, the steak in the fries was super high quality and tender as can be. 10 out 0f 10 for this place. You must try.“
“I passed by this spot everyday for work and checked it out.I had their shakerato and it was delicious, I asked them to make it less sweet and it was perfect. A solid morning drink to get you started for the day.I’d definitely come back again and try their other menu items.“
“My girlfriend and I went to our second Valentine's dinner here last week. Not many places can pull off Valentines Day like Bistro 45 does. Everything came out timely and up to their usual standards. Our favorite waiter Mehdi treated us like family. This is the most consistent restaurant we've ever eaten at. Thank you guys so much! Rick and Linda“
“Visiting from out of town and was so happy to try this entirely gluten free gem! The staff was so friendly, we had breakfast biscuits, donuts, coffee and more. Everything was so good. I also got a caramel bread pudding to go and it was amazing. Like another reviewer said, thank you for existing!!“
“Quick and fast taco stands. Now they support the credit card payment. Eric is welcoming and serves the neighborhood very well until the midnight. The protein of stewed pork and the al pastor is nice while I hope they could use corn tortillas instead of the flour ones.“
“1st time having arepas, I came with my girl and order couple of them , we really loved them, definitely going back to try a tipical dish and some more arepas, and definitely will have to try the chicha I was unlucky this time they didn't have, the girls who helped us are very kind and friendly, explained about the arepas in a very friendly way, the restaurant is very cozy and there is a small outdoor patio , highly recommend this placeParking: Some areas in Pasadena are very difficult to find a free parking I was lucky to find an easy spot right outside of this restaurant, but I'm sure nearby there's free street parking“
“Amazing ice cream with tons of different flavors, handmade everyday. The milkshakes, malts, banana splits, and etc., are just as amazing. The price is just right for premium handmade ice cream. You can even get a pint or a quart of your favorite ice cream(s) to go if you really want. The only downside is that there is no indoors, you order your food through window openings at the counter, while standing outside. But it makes sense, since there really isn't enough room for an indoor section. It's not a big deal though, as once you get your ice cream you can jump back in your car and finish it at home.“
“Los dorados are one of my top 3 taco spots in Los Angeles, their taco it's just crispy like my grandma used to make them and the salsas are delicious, they make you feel very welcome at their spot in el sereno and the ambience is just perfect, you get to dine just like in Mexico out doors and enjoy their delicious tacos“
“So philosophizing a bit here. Bear with me. There's baseball seasons where teams play 162 games during the regular campaign. And if they're lucky, one of them wins the World Series. But look at those croissants! Look at 'em! Are you looking? Oh my Gawd! Look closer! Championship croissants, eh? You bet your sweet sack of sugar those things are winners! So here's my thought: For the 2034 MLB season we just declare Delight Pastry as that year's World Series champion. Oh I can hear those annoying, pesky critics now. "Oh but tasty pastries are not baseball teams!" they will whine. Oh yeah? Well 2034 is shaping up to be a tasty year! So it only makes sense! Congratulations!“
“We highly recommended. We’re coming here almost three years now . From high quality food up to customer service is the best by far in comparison. No where in Pasadena restaurant I can go for Mediterranean restaurant but “Mediterranean Grill” only. We keep coming back .Excellent and beyond expectation “
“It’s SUPER delicious!!!!❤️I am originally from Chengdu, away from hometown for 3 years, this hotpot and Chuanchuan really makes me feel home! I heard from the lady boss that the chef is an old hotpot master in his eighties, it’s really authentic!I even brought the soup home for cooking?? There is no one else who packs hot pot base ingredients?Great service!Totally recommend!“
“All I have to say is this: There is another Mediterranean/Mexican fusion in another part of East Los. THAT place gets a .25 of a star compared to this gem. Do yourself a favor. If you want that Mex/Med fusion you HAVE to come here. I had the Kebab burrito w/chile rojo and it's been on my mind ever since.“
“The workers are great. However they try to push you in and out. Can’t even enjoy a conversation with the fam because they check in endlessly and give you the check halfway thru the meal. But this is a dennys standard at any dennys I’ve been to.“
“We had some delicious shawarma platters! The number of combinations you can make with the sides and upgrade to the fattoush salad is great. We had one chicken shawarma platter with rice, babaganoush, and labneh and one chicken shawarma platter with fattoush salad, garlic paste, and pita chips. All of it was very tasty. The garlic Toum was particularly good, as was the fattoush salad. Each platter comes with two thin pitas (the best kind). The shawarma was a more stewed chicken with onions and tomatoes than the usual kind of dry shredded off the skewer but it was so flavorful! Maybe best not to get it on rice because the ice absorbs all the liquid. We also got a cilantro jalapeno hummus that had a tiny bit of a kick. Everything was good, and the people were very friendly. We will have to come back to try more things!“
“This place is a classic. The best bean cheese burritos in town. The fries and tacos are super crispy crunchy and tasty. I’ve been coming here for years. The prices are good the food and service rock. This place has looked and tasted the same for years. Consistently good. Ten out of ten recommend.The parking is a bit challenging but worth it.“
“I was driving by and was craving a coffee to get the morning started.I ordered a latte with almond milk and it was great. Solid flavor and the temperature was just right. The top of the cup was very ergonomic which made for a pleasant drinking experience. Solid location with other food spots and a nice outdoor sitting area.I’d definitely come back here again to try other menu items. Parking was limited to street but overall a great coffee spot.“
“Ordered Marko's Omelet and Chili Cheese Omelet. Both were fantastic! The sourdough bread that came with it was perfectly toasted and buttered. Marko came out to greet us personally and was very warm and kind. Service was great! The dining area was clean and open! Great breakfast joint! Will definitely be back!“
