I'm a little puzzled how I haven't reviewed this favorite breakfast spot before. This is one of my absolute favorite OG local diners! They also serve great Thai food, sometimes I'll get the Tom Yum Soup for a meal. The broth is amazing and it's a generous portion. But back to breakfast, my current favorite is two poached eggs on toast with a side of avocado, I order this because it's the perfect conduit companion for consuming the bowl of salsa! Let me give my reverence for this condiment. This is my favorite bowl of salsa, it's green, chunky and spicy! There are daily specials that are rotated. I like the omelettes as scrambles, the chef cooks them soft so no overcooked brown eggs. Conversely, I like the hash browns extra crispy with a solid crunch! A little ketchup on them kills the burn from the aforementioned bowl of salsa. Metered parking lot in the back. read more

Third visit and becoming one of our go to breakfast spots when visiting Glendale. Classic diner with both counter and table seating. Menu is what you would expect from a diner. Solid food, hot coffee but what makes it a 5 star is the salsa! Flavorful with a little heat. A must try. Street parking is limited but there is a paid parking lot in the back. May be a slight wait on busy mornings but moves quickly. read more

Armon's Restaurant - Fantastic salsa! - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Always great. Always. Diners are fewer and far between now. I am so glad Armon's is around. It's unassuming and unpretentious. If I'm there with a friend, we grab a booth, but there's something special about having an occasional solo meal sitting at the counter. My go-to for dining in is the BK special.... I adore the hot cakes. I generally grab something Thai to take home with me. They really are the best Thai in the local area! I will keep supporting Armon's. I know that landlords are raising their rent and they've expanded their hours. Let's keep the classic places in LA going as long as we can. read more

Amazing breakfast restaurant serving diner style food but also Thai classics. I love this mix! The food here is delicious and the service is fast and friendly. I love how they bring out a jar of homemade salsa to each table, which goes perfect with their egg dishes. Yum. Can't wait to come back. read more

My favorite diner! I'm surprised I didn't review this one years ago. The salsa that comes with breakfast is top notch and has a nice kick. Great service & wholesome old school diner vibes. read more

Armon's is an Eagle Rock institution. The place has the classic breakfast diner stool seats (in dark brown), preserved formica countertops, and an atmosphere that brings you back to a real part of Northeast LA's past. No fake nostalgia here. Now open until 9:00 PM (thanks to the rent-raising landlords), this family-owned restaurant serves American and Thai breakfast, lunch, and dinner. We stopped in for dinner. Although I've been many times for breakfast and they make an excellent Chicken Fried Steak and Eggs. I had the Loco Moco, my partner had the Bacon and Sausage Breakfast Burrito with Potatoes and Avocado, and we split the Rocket Noodles with Pork (basically a Pad Kee Mao). All three were hits. The homemade salsa's delicious. The flavor of the holy basil in the Rocket Noodles was so authentically Thai. They also don't hold back on the spice. No restaurant in the area does Rocket Noodles/Pad Kee Mao/Drunken Noodles as well as this place. This dish is so legit that I believe the Thai family who owns the restaurant would enjoy it just as much on their table as I did on mine. The whole family were very welcoming. The server greeted us with a smile, made sure our waters were full, and checked to see that we were OK throughout the meal. We had one of those full ice waters spill at the end of our meal, but how could I complain? It was a warm day! We will continue to patronize these legends. read more

Love their Thai food. I am a regular fan of the diced ham scramble breakfast, but decided to try the Rocket Noodles. I am hooked now. Prefer mine with pork - so tender!! My friend loves the Dr. Special and menudo. Service is always friendly and welcoming!! read more

Been coming here for years! Did a review years ago but it somehow disappeared. Anyways, the food here is always good and made freshly all the time!! Very good food with many options to choose from. Today I ordered the protein omelette with home fries for my side. It was very delicious too. The service is always good and the ladies are very welcoming! We known them for many years and they are always pleasant and very accommodating. The ambiance is like an older mom and pop diner. This restaurant is good sense it has many different types of food options to select. I will recommend all breakfast items and their sandwiches and Chinese options are superb as well. You can park on the street or in the back. -Marshay D. read more

One of the best Thai menus in town! A fantastic family-run restaurant with great American-style breakfast and lunch menus, but the Thai menu is phenomenal...much better than other nearby establishments. Would highly recommend for dine-in or takeout. Went on a Wednesday night, and the restaurant was nice and quiet, and the service was impeccable. read more

Service charge of 3%, food was mid, pancakes were gummy and too chewy, and service was not really there.

Went here summer 2023 during a month-long road trip up the California coast with a friend visiting from the UK. Food was delicious. Service was good. Ambiance gives diner vibes, but the food is definitely a step above as far as taste goes. We had pancakes, waffles, omelettes, sausage, refried beans, tortillas, and salsa. We couldn't even eat a third of it but left feeling SO stuffed!!! He and I still mention the meal we had here! I drove up to LA yesterday to meet up with a family member. I was planning to suggest this place for lunch. However, we were short on time due to her departure flight and had to skip going here. I was so sad. I hope to dine here again sometime soon! read more

Open for breakfast and lunch; reopens for dinner 5pm-9pm. Plenty of curbside or rear lot metered parking..Everything about this cozy and friendly neighborhood coffee shop is spot on! Weekend breakfast can be busy with local families, it you can always find a seat within a few minutes wait. Outside patio seating available too. The various offerings of hot and cold dishes also include Thai-oriented plates. I like the 'Dr's Special of sauteed chicken, green pepper, chili. and light gravy over rice. The hamburgers are awesome. It's very affordable and filling. The food is delicious, balanced, and served in a timely manner. You can opt for Booth or counter seating; all are well kept, sanitary, and well padded. Overall, it's been a great place for me the last 12 years I lived here. The best in town! read more

ARMON's from Bday Blast to Breakfast Bliss Monday morning, post-bash in the hills, Wifey by my side, chasing calm from the thrills.

Didn't ask once, they were ten steps ahead, Pure excellence served with butter and bread. Now that BK Special? It was givin' what it should,,, Waffle juicy-buttery, eggs cooked real good. Turkey bacon crisp, hash browns hittin' right, That plate brought my soul back to life. One of the best breakfasts I've had in years, Warm vibes, hot food and zero tears. So shoutout to Armon's for doin' it well,,, If you know, you know... elite folks can tell. read more

No frills neighborhood diner with fast, friendly service from genuine, hard working people. They keep your coffee cup full and your belly nice & happy! The menu is basic American, but wait! Turn the menu over ... What....? Thai dishes? You don't expect that from a breakfast diner! That is exactly what makes them stand out & brings you back for more. I LOVE my go-to's, the Doctor's Special and the Alamex which I request extra spicy. Without the chiles its just as good because they're both made simply with fresh ingredients and it works! Topped with their house salsa gives them a double kick of flavor. That salsa can go on just about everything. Weekends are always packed but the wait time is reasonable. Over the years, any & everyone I've brought has become a fan. Even the pickiest of eaters. There's definitely something on the menu for you & you'll become a regular too :) See you at Armon's... I'll be at the counter! read more

Easily one of the best diners in Eagle Rock. That is saying something because there are over five well-known ones that I can think of and I'm sure there are a few more that I can't. Every time I stop in it's always very busy, but the wait is never that long. We were able to be seated immediately when we arrived for our 10 AM Sunday brunch. They have a lot of seating indoors as well as out, but I always prefer to sit inside to really soak up the diner atmosphere. This is an Asian-influenced diner that has a lot of Asian flavors on the menu as well as a mostly Asian staff. They don't have a dedicated parking lot, but parking is very easy to find in this part of town. Our server was very polite and everything we ordered came out extremely fast. I wanted to mix up my usual order so for my last visit so I chose the Hamburger Steak and Eggs. It's basically a large hamburger patty but cooked just like a steak and honestly, it was delicious. The eggs were cooked perfectly and the side of hashbrowns was as good as I hoped. The portion sizes are large and the prices are fair so it really is a great breakfast or lunch option. I would recommend to any diner fan or anyone searching for a great breakfast option in Eagle Rock. read more

This place is overpriced for very mid food. The menu is all over the place--Thai dishes mixed with Mexican-style food--and none of it is done particularly well. It feels like they're trying to do too much instead of sticking to one cuisine and actually doing it right. If you're craving classic diner food, you're honestly better off going to a big franchise where at least the quality is consistent. The food here is bland and underseasoned, like whoever's in charge has completely lost their palate. For the prices they charge, the quality just isn't there, and overall it feels like a place that hasn't kept up or bothered to improve. read more

We love Armon's and have been going for years. The staff is so kind and welcoming to our kids. Now they are open for dinner on weeknights which is very exciting! There is something for everyone, the kids loved their breakfast for dinner and we had Thai yellow curry and loco moco, both delicious! This is a great family restaurant and an Eagle Rock gem! read more

Stepping into Armon's Diner feels like a trip back in time. With its retro '50s countertop and vintage decor, the place oozes nostalgic charm--though the two wall-mounted TVs feel a bit out of sync with the old-school vibe. Armon's is an American family dinner serving the local residents with classic breakfast and lunch options. This restaurant is filipino operated. So you will see some Asian fusion. There is limited off street parking. I got lucky found the last spot without having to walk a great distance. There is limited parking in back. The lot is a shared lot with other businesses. I ordered the Denver omelette, which came packed with diced ham, bell peppers, onions, and gooey melted cheese. It was cooked just right--fluffy and flavorful. The house-diced potatoes on the side were crispy on the edges and tender inside, a perfect complement to the omelette. Service was friendly, quick and efficient, and while the décor is a bit of a time capsule (with a few modern interruptions), it adds to the character. Armon's delivers a classic diner breakfast that's comforting, satisfying, and full of charm. There is currently two surcharges applied to most patrons check $1.00 for all egg dishes. 3% to all patrons checks. The 3% surcharge is applied to the $1.00 egg surcharge. Basically you will pay $1.03 read more

I love Armon's. Good food . It is a bit pricey though. The staff is very friendly. I ordered the egg salad sandwich It never disapoints. It is an old-school diner. The ambiance is. good. The customers are usually locals from Eagle Rock or neighboring communities l give it 4 stars. read more

Established in 1962, Armon's expectedly retro interior was sufficiently charming, but closer inspection had us looking twice. Amidst your breakfast/diner standards, their menu boasts Thai dishes like shrimp tom yum and chicken tom kha (plus not-so-Thai chow mein and shrimp fried rice). But what really sold us was that half of everyone had their eggs and/or bacon with white rice on their plate. Sitting cozily low at a diner counter you could easily rest your elbows on, out came generously portioned plates with hot, steaming rice fresh out the cooker: Hamburger Steak & Eggs for the lady, and Corn Beef Hash & Eggs for me. Having grown up chubby but half-Filipino, corn beef hash has always been an infrequent but celebrated home breakfast. One year it was almost once a month, but most years you could all but count on one hand. As a free-willed adult, I probably have it 1-3 times a year, but that's largely due to the woefully finite amount of love that most breakfast joints put into this dish. But not here. With a cohesively crisp bottom akin to dumpling lace ("served up"), much justice was done for this oft undervalued dish. In lesser hands, such crispiness is at the expense of the overall texture; where gristle-like crumbing slips through the prongs of your fork. But not here. Instead, it was light and juicy; underscoring the accompanying rice and fried egg; acting as savory solvent for the Sriracha with a few calculated drops of Kikkoman. Instead, this breakfast hit like lost media: a beautifully-salted, Asian-Americana nostalgia I didn't know I was missing. read more

Small diner. We had breakfast. Not bad, but a little pricey. For my wife and I it was $35.00. She had a waffle and eggs, I had a side of corned beef hash plus coffee. Only street parking is available. read more

It's been years been wanting to try this place. Finally did after a great long walk. I'm glad it's still in business. It's an old cute little place. We were attracted to their advertised breakfast special, pancakes, bacon/Sausage and two eggs. They also offered French toast instead of pancakes with that special, that sounded good and we ordered that. The price was listed without any mention of French toast being a few dollars more. We got eggs first, a few minutes went by and then the French toast was served, it was good as were the eggs. Service was ok, but no one was friendly until time to bring the bill, then some pearly whites glistened, I really hate that. When we viewed the bill it seemed too high, upon investigation it was apparently higher by four dollars because we got the French toast which unbeknownst to us cost extra. Ok, it was good but they really need to be clear on pricing. It's kind of deceptive, I would like to see that corrected on the menu. We will likely give it another visit, hope they clarify their pricing. read more

Armons. Oh sweet Armons. You are our favorite diner in LA. This is a local old skool diner with the 50s counter seats and booths. The food is always great. You can order breakfast and lunch and Thai!

I was looking for a breakfast restaurant and I came across this on yelp since I was in the area. There were street parking or there is back public parking with the parking meters. I ordered the international omelette and it was cheese, and meat. I ordered it with a side of rice. It was pretty good and I ordered a Thai tea. It was delicious and the customer service was great as well. The environment is the diner type of feel. I would come back here again! read more

Armon's Restaurant - International omelette - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Sunday brunch is probably my happy place. Without further ado let us begin this awesome review. Armon's Restaurant is a vintage diner with counter seats & comfort classics for breakfast & lunch. They are located in the heart of Eagle Rock neighborhood of LA. Armon's brunch menu is vast and economically priced; its atmosphere has a relaxing vibe and amiable staff. We came here to grab brunch. I had for a moment vacillated between ordering healthy and non-healthy food. I ordered a veggie omelette, fresh cut fruits, coffee and wheat toast. Food was good as well as their refillable coffee. Moreover, they offer a free wifi. Plenty of street metered and public parking lots. And finding a free parking was a breeze. Overall, I enjoyed my breakfast and dine-in experience. read more

I have a deep love for Armon's. I don't come here as often as I'd like but every time I do it feels like a very familiar vibe. The service is always kind and patient which I think add to the family atmosphere Food is amazing. I recommend their oatmeal, their steak and eggs, home fries and their chocolate milk. However, if I'm being 100% honest, the main reason I love coming here is because of their salsa. It pairs so well with eggs and their home fries. It's soooo delicious and has a kick, I sometimes order cups whenever I get take out. My friend recommends ordering their country fried steak & eggs. He says it's very tasty! read more

Such a gem in Eagle Rock :) There is metered street parking and also metered parking in the rear of the location. There's a good amount of seating inside and the hostess was so friendly. You can definitely tell there are a lot of regulars that come here. Everything is made to order. I ordered off the Hot off the Griddle Combination (2 eggs, 2 sausage and my choice of Pancakes). My meal came out pretty quickly and everything tasted really good. I enjoyed the pancakes a lot and a short stack was more than enough for me. My partner ordered one of their omelettes and it came with crispy potatoes. This was definitely big enough to share. We thoroughly enjoyed everything we ordered. Enjoy! read more

This place has been around since 1962. It's historical in Eagle Rock. They've had two owners overall. The food is delicious. I love the flavor of their pancakes. I ordered the two pancake combo with Portuguese sausage and eggs. I also, ordered cottage cheese and cantaloupe. Everything is made fresh to order with quality ingredients and the taste is scrumptious. I have been coming here for over 20 years and the food and customer service is always impeccable. The ambiance is cool with a mom-and-pop style diner. Note: Daily specials with economical prices. Great place for breakfast or lunch. Decent amount of seating indoors, at the counter, and two tables outside. Metered parking is located on the street or in the rear of the location which is also metered parking. read more

The food is excellent. Always super hot and fresh off the grill. Breakfast is the best! GREAT ATTENTIVE service!

The best breakfast; now the best dinner! And the best people! We eat here 3-4 times per week...at least!

Parking - Street parking only and most of it is metered. There are a handful of spots right in front of the restaurant entrance. Food - I ordered the waffle which comes with 2 eggs any style and a choice of bacon or sausage. I ordered my eggs over easy and selected the bacon. The waffle was thinner than I like, but the flavor was good. Bacon was well done, but not very crispy. Service - When we arrived, no one greeted us or offered to seat us. Two employees were rolling silverware and just talking to each other. We asked if we could get seated and the employee pointed to a nearby booth. The server wasn't friendly and seemed annoyed that we were there during their last hour of operation. The only positive here was that food came out quickly. Keep in mind there was only one other customer there at the time. I'm curious about the Thai food on their menu, but not curious enough to go back. read more

Time for a review update: I have always enjoyed going to Armon's, Eagle Rock's friendly neighborhood breakfast/brunch diner, for as long as I remember, aside from the few updates on the menu, their food has remained good and true. From the traditional American breakfast to the Thai dishes that I sometimes need the morning after a fun evening - It has remained as tasty as I remember since I first stepped into this place back in 2001! Service has always been friendly and expedient and I really like the old school diner feel, the tables are as it was, not cramped and you have room to move and space for the entire family. Pops has always ordered their Bacon, Eggs & Pancake breakfast, he has always enjoyed this! ( I usually steal one of his fluffy pancakes haha), myself however, I prefer to switch it up all the time, from the veggie omelette, steaks & eggs to the yummy shrimp fried rice! (sooo good and generously served) I always request a 2 eggs toppings for this dish ( over easy) It is so nice that the community has continuously supported Armon's! On weekends, I always see this place buzzing especially during breakfast and brunch hours - this is no surprise! They are a good neighborhood breakfast diner with friendly people and yummy delicious breakfast and dishes which I myself am happy to support! Khob Khun! read more
