“We enjoyed this place but at times it does get very busy so there is a wait. I ordered pancakes and cheese omelette. The portions are sufficient to share or take home leftovers, especially if you’re not a big eater. Overall, I would return for pancakes.“

“Had a scrabble with mushrooms, ground beef and pepper jack cheese. Very delicious. Hash browns were good. But the best were the biscuits with gravy. They are the best in this area. Service was good. The place is nice, but not super upscale. The food is why people come. It was a full house, which is expected for a Sunday.“

Chicken Taco

“The 6749 (or as locals call it the 40) is one of the older more established beer bars (they also serve food) in Uptown Whittier. The scene here can be anywhere from college kids to older patrons enjoying a nice selection of taps and bottled beers. The atmosphere is very chill and inviting. The music is well varied, they have several TVs for your viewing pleasure. Not overly priced. At times it can get pretty packed and loud here so just be prepared, then other times it can be really mellow. If your in the area and find yourself needing a brew to quench that hop thirst definitely stop by!“

“Wedding Catering: Five Stars all around for Steve’s BBQ!!Steve’s has always been our go-to date spot so when it came down to planning our wedding, they were our first choice for dinner. From start to finish the experience was hands down AMAZING!! Josh is so easy to work with and literally offered everything under the sun. He is very organized and takes detailed notes. My husband and I were also very surprised to learn that they were able to offer more than just BBQ items for the menu. Everything at our tasting was delicious!! It was hard to pin down our choices but once we did we knew we had something for everyone.Our menu was as follows…Appetizers: Bruschetta, Hot Links & the most delicious Crab Cakes you’ve ever had!!Dinner: Baby Back Ribs, Chicken, Mac & Cheese (a total no brainer since it’s our favorite), Collard Greens & dinner rolls. They also provided a BBQ style veggie option for a friend of ours. She said portobello mushroom never tasted so good!Steve’s BBQ was a full service operation, they provided the disposable plates and rolled flatware. Offered tray pass service for cocktail hour and even bussed after dinner. My wedding planner had nothing but positive feedback to provide as well.Overall, my husband and I are so happy we were able to have Josh, Eric and the Steve’s BBQ team as part of our special day. This restaurant already held a special place in our hearts but now it’s forever part of our love story. THANK YOU STEVE’S BBQ!! WE LOVE YOU!!“

“It was the first time in this place and everything was very good, service, food and atmosphere. Very quiet place you can fully enjoy everything here. What I can't fail to mention are the seats, the sofas are very uncomfortable, they get worse as soon as you sit down to the point of crushing my finger between the mattress and the wood. One is very low and you cannot eat comfortably.Parking: Large enough parking space for everyone.Wheelchair accessibility: Enough space to maneuver your wheelchair“

“Classic American + some Mexican diner food. We had a large group + they were extremely accommodating. Super nice, helpful wait staff. They even offered to make a custom sandwich that wasn't even on the menu! Best item ordered was the Chicken-Fried Steak + Eggs! I like how u can get biscuits + gravy instead of toast with breakfasts. Burgers were awesome, juicy + good. Long lists of breakfast items here. Also plenty of classic dinner + lunch choices like steak, pasta + of course their famous Fried Chicken!! U have to try it + you'll be in love. Plenty of parking. Just walk in. Very casual. Friendly people. 50s music plays in background whole u enjoy your visit.Vegetarian options: Plenty of vegetarian options such as pasta, breakfast, salads + side dishes. They will custom-make menu items to meet your needs!Dietary restrictions: They will custom make menu items to meet your needs.“

“We decided to come here for Sunday dinner and were greeted by a warm and welcoming hostess that informed us we'd have a short wait. When our table was ready we were escorted to our seats where our waiter took our drink order. After looking over the menu we placed our food order, I had the Grilled Salmon with a Caesar Salad and Grilled Asparagus. The Salmon was grilled to perfection and bursting with flavors, very good. The salad was delicious and fresh and so was the Asparagus! The restaurant was bustling, lively, and well maintained. Our server was attentive and took 1/2 off one of the meals with the BOGO deal. I really enjoyed our dinning experience and will definitely be back!“

“A fun find in Whittier where you can dine in a car like booth and food is delivered via roller skates. It's a diner so expect things like burgers, fries, salads, shakes and stuff in between. The chicken pita was delicious and jammed packed with a good portion of grilled chicken. The French fries were outstanding. They had a secret coating on them, which made them very unique. My guy had the classic cheeseburger and a milk shake. There is indoor and outdoor eating. Along with a drive thru. Prices are reasonable and restaurant is family friendly.“
