    Small neopolitan shake.
    Patty L.

    First time trying this place out and we ordered to go. Youll see the menu gives plenty of options, ranging from breakfast to lunch. Walking in, the first thing you'll note is the decor, bright visuals (signs and art) all around that make it whimsical. Lots of parking to go with the spacious dining area. Cashiers were attentive to who walked in. We did ask if ranch was provided in order to-go order and told it'll cost extra (.55 cents). Which was fine, but then we saw that there was already 4 ranch portion cups included in our bags, once we started eating. So....we didnt need them and could have just been told it was already in there. Minor oversight. On to the food! Its diner food and you get what you expect, something greasy and filling. I got the pastrami melt sandwich which had a nice crunch from the pickles and tangy mustard to go with the salty pastrami. The jalapeño burger was alright. Jalapeño was grilled, split in half, and place on each side. Expected it to either be crunchier or fresh...and more. The chili cheese fries serving was huge and it comes doused with cheese. Can't even see the fries til you dig in. So if you get a large one, you'll have leftovers. My favorite was the neopolitan shake that was made with real icecream and was deliciously smooth. And the small version comes with quite a lot.

    BLT, hold the T! Packed with bacon and the crispy fries with the seasoned salt are everything a growing boy needs!

    I've been coming here since it opened around 2007? I was surprised I had not reviewed it. Literally everything here is good. The BLTs are packed with bacon. The french fries have great seasoned salt on them. The onion rings are addictive. The taquitos have great shredded beef in them and the tortilla chips are fresh fried. The burgers are more common like you get it at a Greek hamburger stand. My friends tell me the breakfast burritos are worth driving for themselves! Another thing that sets this place apart from pretty much anywhere else is the decor and the high ceilings and the ice cream parlor. There is memorabilia all over the place: embedded into the walls, freestanding on the floor, hanging from the ceilings, and a terrific surf mural on one of the walls. It is really quite spectacular and makes this place special. Glendora is lucky to have it.

    My girls dance team has come to this location after their spring competitions for years. The service has always been great and i can't think of a time the orders have ever been wrong (but i'm sure it happens) The food selection is your classic diner experience choices along with some different menu options like nacho and tacos. My whole family loves all the classic hollywood pictures throughout the inside of the diner. Needless to say, we everything about Legends!

    This place has a cool chill vibe, brings you to the 50's with the decorative items! Super cool! We had eaten other items but I forgot to take photos (next time) Check this spot out fast and friendly service from the employees.

    Brought my granddaughter and grandson for lunch. We love this diner. They have really good burgers. We also like their onion rings and fried mushrooms. They want to dine here again so they can some of the other menu items.

    The legendary Legends Classic Diner. Love the vibe, food and ambiance. A must visit in the historic Route 66 , City of Glendora.

    Walking through the doors of this Glendora Route 66 themed restaurant, is like walking into the 1950s! Old school jukebox, tons of 50s wall decor, vintage Coca Cola signs, with license plates and bottle caps lining the walls! If it's your first time here, try a cookie shake or coffee shake... it will not disappoint! I have a few personal favorite dishes that I've tried over my years of frequenting this establishment. If you're in the mood for breakfast, their mess burrito is great! Try the salsas or yellow peppers with it! If you are craving that typical fast food try their double cheeseburger or their avocado BLT and ask for pickled carrots! If you get fries, I always recommend upgrading them to chili fries. Now, if you are feeling like a lighter meal go for either the grilled chicken salad or the tuna salad. The chicken salad is served with dressing on the side, green peppers, tomato's, pickles, cucumbers, onions, lettuce, hot pita bread and tasty grilled chicken with melty cheese. I posted a photo below of the salad, although mine did have some modifications. The service is walk up, order, and pick a seat. You will be handed a number, and they will deliver it to your table. There are tons of spacious booths, and also tables for larger parties! If you need something like extra silverware, the front counter can get that for you. The soda is free refills for dine in... mix the Cherry Fanta with the Coca-Cola. You will thank me later. As always great food, great service... we will be back!

    Haven't been here for a few years and I'm very impressed with the pricing menu , I thought perhaps the pricing was going to be inflated by a lot but it was relatively the same . The service was quick , and friendly . The ambience is the best, if you love old school music and anything 60s/70s , it's decorated with a lot of old school stuff with some great tracks playing in the background . This legends is Located on Route 66 , very fitting .

    This is a classic staple to the community! Customer service is okay. I'd say be careful on drive thru, you may have to scream your order because they have too much background noise going on. The food is 4/5 for me. Lately the burgers have not been tasting a good as it was years ago. Maybe it's the seasoning or that they don't always have the meat well done and sometimes it's medium well. The fries are a bit on the stale side and there are times when they're super fresh and tasty. It can be a hit or miss. It's overall decent but I know it can be better! I love dining in and looking at all the decor! If it's your first time, definitely go inside because it's picture worthy!

However, my birthday dinner there with my 12-year-old daughter didn't match my past experiences. Our server, Kai, seemed inattentive throughout the meal. I had to flag her down multiple times for help, even though it wasn't a busy night. The biggest issue was at the end--we waited about 20 minutes just to get our check. I tried asking another server, but he needed her to handle it. When she finally came over, she said she needed a manager to apply a coupon, but then got sidetracked helping another table instead of resolving it. Meanwhile, my daughter was getting restless, and I eventually had to go directly to the manager myself. The manager was great and handled everything quickly. Only then did Kai re-engage. To management: when guests are finished eating, getting the check promptly really matters--it's how the experience ends. I'll definitely be back, but hoping for more attentive service next time.

The beans were smoky and slightly spicy, a nice accompaniment for the chicken. My wife's fish tacos- white fish deep fried- was also very good. Almost a tempura type light batter and prep.

However, later that evening, I woke up in the middle of the night and was violently ill. Symptoms included fever, chills, body aches, nausea, and other gastrointestinal distress. I was so sick in fact that I went to Urgent Care the following morning, still with all of the same symptoms and after running some tests, I was diagnosed with what they believed was either food poisoning or a stomach virus from tainted food. I strongly believe the pork ribs were not cooked correctly at this restaurant and that is why I became so ill. I called the restaurant after and repeatedly tried to speak to a manager to let them know what happened since I would not want anyone else to become sick. However I was repeatedly told that a manager wasn't on duty by a boy who worked there with horrible customer service skills. I truly believe a manager just did not want to speak to anyone about any concerns. It's sad because this restaurant used to be wonderful when it was operated by the original owners, but it seems to be going downhill under new management/owners. I don't suggest eating here unless you want to risk your health and deal with unresponsive management.

Our server took over 10 minutes just to greet us, and the wait for our food was even worse. Charging $15.95 for a BLTA and then charging extra for tomato is already ridiculous -- only for them to come back another 10 minutes later to tell me they were out of multiple items anyway. Once the food finally arrived, the server never checked on us again. We had to flag someone down ourselves just to get the check. I didn't catch her name because she barely introduced herself in the first place. Do yourself a favor and avoid this place on a Saturday afternoon. The service was awful, the staff seemed uninterested, and the food definitely wasn't worth the price.
