You earned that fifth star!

We've always visited the Monrovia Diplomat in the past, and it was always good along with the…read moreservice. Today we visited the Diplomat Jr. in Glendora and it was not the quite the "upscale" Mediterranean dining advertised, but quite the contrary this time. From the fruit flies & black fly constantly buzzing around our table and landing in our food, to the lack of standard Mediterranean type accoutrements omitted from our meal. The chicken was seasoned and flavorful, but somewhat undercooked. The typical Mediterranean saffron rice was now replaced with plain [bland] rice pilaf, and no hummus or garlic is included with your "Mediterranean" meal. You must pay $10 extra for hummus, and $4 extra for a 2oz disposable container of garlic; a total $14.00 extra for condiments. But you do receive a large Mexican chile and cooked tomato, (to which i personally did not eat because i avoid highly acidic foods.) I would recommend to the Restaurant owners to keep the front door shut (especially when it's 92° out), or install a fan over the front door so that flying insects can't get in, annoy customers & contaminate the food. I would also recommend serving a traditional saffron rice since it is a "Mediterranean" restaurant. Additionally, the hummus was horribly boring and could've used a little garlic added for a little flavor, or garlic, infused olive oil blended it when making it. Garbanzo beans by themselves are boring and flat in flavor. The service was lacking, as our waitress slow or MIA most of the time & in fact at one point we had to leave our table & go find her in the bar as she was helping the bartender with no customers present.

From start to finish, the entire experience was A+. Our server, Junior, was amazing--friendly, attentive, and genuinely made us feel welcome. We started with the hummus trio served with fresh pita, and it immediately set the tone for the meal. The hummus was creamy and flavorful, and the fresh pita was the perfect accompaniment. For our entrée, we had the spicy chicken entree, and it was outstanding. The chicken was incredibly flavorful, but the sauce was something special--rich, savory, and so delicious that it really elevated the entire dish. It was one of those sauces that makes you stop for a second and think, wow, what is in this? We also had the house salad with their house-made balsamic dressing, which was fresh and delicious. Everything was bursting with flavor. My taste buds were smiling the entire time! We ended our meal with fresh, delicious baklava, which was the perfect finishing touch. There's something special about finding a great restaurant completely by accident. Excellent food, wonderful service, fresh ingredients, and a warm, welcoming atmosphere turned an unplanned lunch into such a pleasant experience. The Grill House was an unexpected gem, and we're already looking forward to coming back! Thank you Adam we will back Rick & Lorrie Anne

The staff here was welcoming and kind and we sat wherever we pleased. The location is quaint but can seat a decent amount of customers. The menu has changed a bit over time. Our favorite things to order is usually their Gyro. The prices are very affordable and the portions are adequate. One thing I'd like to mention is the food is consistently good whether your order take-out or dine in. The quality is the same! My personal favorite has always been their Classic Gyro. It's always so stacked with flavor and protein. The combo is a great option too because you can share the massive portion of fries they give you. All in all, Grape Leaf has been a solid Greek food option for us when craving this type of cuisine. They take good care of their customers and their food is spectacular! Support this local gem in the city of Glendora. Thanks! ( ^_^)b

My husband and I usually order take-out, but on our recent visit, we decided to dine in. We arrived on a Sunday evening (5pm). Parking is shared with other businesses in the plaza. We found one in the shade. The restaurant is small, but they utilize their space well. There are 4 tables and I believe 3 high-top tables as well as outdoor seating. The interior is well-kept and decorated nicely to match the Greek theme. Ordering takes place at the counter, no self-serve kiosk. They have many menu options like sides, gyros, plates, kids menu, family meal, lunch specials, soups, and desserts. My go-to item is their Greek Chicken Pita with Lemon Sauce in place of the tzatziki ($13). I would sometimes order this with a side of fries, but my husband got it in his combo. The reason I order this all the time is because the pita not only tastes amazing, it's also filling! There's grilled chicken, potatoes, pickled onions, greens, and lemon sauce. The pita is thick and has the perfect chew to it. There is so much flavor in every bite! The fries were delicious as well. They were soft on the inside and crisp and seasoned well on the outside. Overall, a great spot for Mediterranean food. I would happily recommend this to anyone!

My go to meal is the lamb shawarma with rice, salad, spicy lebni, and spicy humus. The garlic sauce is also great and doesn't have that strong lingering aftertaste either.
