    59. Pad Thai
    Serina N.

    I was in the area for plant bingo and decided to try this place out. It's in a strip mall that seems pretty abandoned so parking was easy. The seating is a bit low and quirky, but the service was super friendly and welcoming. My friend and I ordered Spring Rolls, Mango Salad, and Pad Thai to share. They brought out separate peanut sauce for each of us to enjoy with the spring rolls, which was a nice touch. The Mango Salad was my favorite bite of the day. It was fresh, flavorful, and delicious. The Pad Thai was good but I don't think I would order it again. The portions were huge, so we had plenty of leftovers. The chrysanthemum tea was very refreshing! Highly recommend trying it.

    My first time trying vegan food and I liked it. We ordered spring rolls and egg rolls for our appetizers. The spring rolls were fresh and light. And the egg rolls were very crispy! For the main course we tried the Pad Thai and Korean sesame beef plates. Both delicious! However the Korean beef was my favorite. And for dessert we ordered the Dream rice cocoa fudge ice cream. It was smooth and great for chocolate lovers. The gentleman that took our order was extremely nice, great service. The only downside is the ambiance, it's a little on the sad side. The fish tanks aren't the prettiest or cleanest. Other than that I'd still come back for the food.

    Wow! Very impressed with this mom and pop vegan spot that survived the pandemic. My hubz is vegan and is always looking for good plant-based eats so this was a real treat for him. The location is in a seemingly rundown abandoned plaza and but trust me the food is really good. Owners are very friendly, the menu is extensive, with decent-prices and so there's something for everyone. Ambiance inside is very/retro modern with space-saving red and black tables and chairs. We ordered a variety of food and highly recommend: -lemongrass chicken -Mongolian beef -Eggplant -Pad Thai -Thai fried rice Everything was freshly made and very flavorful. They even sell some of their vegan soy proteins and we got the chicken, beef and shrimp. I personally love the shrimp- super tender. Hope this place sticks around and that the surrounding plaza gets a revival- support this local and delicious business!

    I've only been here a handful of times, but it never seems to disappoint! I've even brought some of my non-vegan friends here & they loved it! I recently ordered some dishes for take-out & the food was ready quickly & still hot. I wanted to try some things I hadn't tried there before like: * Papaya salad - huge portion, great flavor! The soy protein comes a bit dry so I added my own sauce to it * Tamarind Beef with rice - tasty but could use more flavor or a sauce * Combo Vegan Chow Fun - such good flavor! * Sweet & Sour Chicken - first dish to go because we loved it so much! Then a classic: * Combo Fried White Rice Everything was delicious & we will definitely be coming back again soon!

    First time here. Wonderfully delicious! Got the Garlic Noodles, Fried Tofu, Mixed Vegetables. All were fantastic. Wonderful owner - extremely nice! It's great that we have this restaurant here in Contra Costa. Need to patronize it more, so it stays that way. Fun modern tables and chairs. I should have taken pictures first but they smelled too good to wait.

    Food is great. Fresh go order. We indulged in their fresh smoothies- soursop, mango, & green kale smoothies are favs. Their yam fries were yum! I want them to bring back their yuka fries... we had the Vietnamese crepe it was good you can tell they don't add much salt so you can if you need. That's a healthy kitchen mark for me. Service is friendly, always lovely to support a mom & pop local biz. Ambiance is cool, very diner & divey.

    I drove from the bay out to the restaurant on saturday only to find that it was closed. yelp indicated that it was open but it appears the place may have gone out of business? not sure if this is true but hours should be updated. so disappointing.

    We're apologize for your inconvenience. Ours restaurant had closed on every Saturdays over 5 years now. We're open Sunday to Friday from 11:00am to 8:00pm. Thanks

    How long will they be closed?

    Bahati, the restaurant has reopened.

The food was excellent, but Jorge's attention to detail was impeccable. On the day of service, we were greeted by Jorge and his staff. Our family and guests were served to their specifications. We asked for a bit more cooking time on the sliders and they obliged. What was great about Monica's is that you aren't up charged for the space. You are specifically paying for the food, which they cook as you go. Meaning, as your party eats certain items, Jorge and crew replenishes the servings of that item. That way your food is hot and always fresh and not sitting g out for minutes or hours. Along with the food price were water, coffee, tea, and soda. No one around can bet the price or the service we received. Thank you, Jorge and crew for representing Monica's Riverview to the utmost!

We got the jerk chicken…read moreplate, a side of mac and cheese, and a bread pudding to share and it was absolutely delicious! The jerk chicken was fall-off-the-bone tender and juicy, and so flavorful. The jerk sauce was sweet and savory with just enough kick and the red beans and rice was the perfect accompaniment. The bread pudding might have been the best I've ever had. That sauce was so good! The portions were generous, we had enough for my boyfriend and I for supper and leftovers for him to take to work for lunch the next day. The staff was so friendly and welcoming and you could just tell they really enjoyed what they were doing and put a lot of love into the dishes. They were quite proud of their work, as well they should be! This was every bit as good as the food I had in Jamaica, highly recommend!!!

Oxtail plate - really tasty, heavy on the sides but a little light on the meat. Another piece would've done it for me. I got extra oxtail gravy which was really good to add on to the rice and peas. Jerk ribs - SO DAMN GOOD!!! Great flavor, fall off the bone, I could easily eat more of that. Don't skip it! Pepper shrimp - eh, it was ok I think. My daughter wanted that so I only had one piece of shrimp mixed with some other things on my own plate. I do think there was only maybe 5-6 shrimps. They were a good size, but again, a 2-3 more pieces would've made it perfect. Curry shrimp - I really enjoyed the curry shrimp and I appreciate that they package the curry shrimp separate from the sides that come with the meal. Definitely going to get those again when I return. Escovitch fish - I had never ordered a whole fried fish before so I was excited. I had escovitch fish when I was in Jamaica but it was served not as a whole fish. I thought it was fried well and had good seasoning. I like the pickling too, I ordered extra. I also ordered a beef patty and an oxtail patty but I haven't eaten them yet. Looking forward to it though. Also, the plates came with cabbage. I'm not sure if it was supposed to be cooked, I've seen that and that's what I expected. But what was on the plate was dry bagged salad like you get from the produce section to make Cole slaw. There was no sauce and it was uncooked. Not sure about that. I ordered online so I didn't really get "service" but the woman at the register was kind and had a warm smile. Overall, I can't wait to return. And now that I know what I like, maybe I won't spend quite so much to try everything lol.
