Have to write up my childhood burger joint. This place has not changed. I've lived behind this…read moreplace since I was a baby. We would go and get an ice cream cone from here. Then this was the spot for lunch where we would always get the cheeseburger and chili cheese fries. It's an extremely mom and pop shop. Burgers give the vibes of the hat. If you get the chili cheese fries you gotta get ranch with that. I went recently and the owner and workers are still there even after I've graduated all these years later. I always suggest this place for people in that area. Been going since the 90s, why stop?

Old-school restaurant that serves pretty much anything you'd want for a quick, no-frills meal:…read moreburgers, sandwiches, fries, even super familiar Mexican fare like tacos and burritos. Prices are very reasonable, too. Jim's sits in a large strip mall off Duarte Road with plenty of parking. Lots of seating inside. Very roomy and clean. Ordered the following: - Double cheeseburger combo with fries and a soda - 6.5/10: unspectacular, but solid. Reminds me of the burgers at Carl's Jr. and Burger King - a classic style, no frills burger. Cooked fresh, large and filling. Fries are plenty enough for even two people. This is a solid, no nonsense place if you're hungry and on a budget. Check it out.

I've been going to Ike's since 2008 (NorCal and socal locations). I got the Ménage…read more The service was great. This was the best Ike's sandwich I've gotten in awhile. I'll definitely be back to this location!

3/5, many vegan and vegetarian options:…read more My first Ike's sandwich was from their West LA location in 2019, and the fact that I remember the year is evidence enough that I am a sandwich fiend. I've gotten at least a dozen sandwiches (and likely more) from Ike's over the years, and it was always my favorite local sandwich shop after they finally opened a location in the northeast side of LA. But I must say, as of late, their quality is really not the same as the past. I recently ordered a sandwich that came with mushrooms and it was barely cooked and mostly raw. Having raw mushrooms in a sandwich is really not it, and considering each sandwich here is about $16+ post tax and tip (yes I did tip), I think we can expect a little better quality, or at the very least, not having basically raw mushrooms in a sandwich. While they do have many sandwiches to choose from on such a vast menu, and everything is customizable (just with additional charges), it does feel like they'd do better if they nail down some of the details like making sure their cooked ingredients are actually cooked. All that said, the store is kept clean, there's some dine in tables as well as outdoor seating. The music indoors is kept loud, and the decor is very colorful and bold. Service feels like what you'd expect from employing recent high school or college students at their first jobs, but it's always been polite. Pictured: one of the many sandwiches I've consumed over the years from Ike's. This one attached happened to be from 2023.

I usually come to this location while at work &…read moredon't have to many complaints other then the line being long at times or into an awkward parking of the street or cross walk! They are extremely busy & delicious so I get why they are a packed house! No indoors so ya gotta do it the OG way & eat outdoors on their patio or take it to go! I will say their staff is extremely pleasant to deal with! The people who take my order are always so nice & quick! The staff giving the food are usually nice as well! This in n out doesn't miss! Still one of the best options / routes to go with for a cheaper quality lunch! (:

I think this is one of the better in n out places we've been to…read more We came around 4 times already and for dine in only. My dad really likes this place as it is clean, bright, we get good service, refills are done on our own, and we least have our food cooked right. I love ext to a drive thru in n out and compared to it, I do prefer this one. Ordering is quick and easy, the staff are polite and very helpful. Time for food to be ready varies, if you ask for fries well done it will take longer. Overall, I do think it's great for indoor in n out at least close by, despite living next to one I would drive here instead.

They have a small army of paper hats working back there! I'm always impressed on how they're able to make things fresh and keep up with the dozens of orders coming from the drive through and the counter. Inside is clean as they have a roving staffer dedicated to wiping the the tables and cleaning things up. Lots of room inside and even a few outdoor tables with umbrellas. This is one of the better locations for an In-N-Out as there's plenty of parking outside. There's even a couple of spots for EV charging. A good time was had by all.

Chipotle makes it super easy to order directly from their app and I save so much time to be able to pick up once it is ready. This was my first time ordering from Chipotle in Monrovia. I read a lot of negative reviews about bad service and long lines so I was initially a bit hesitant about going there. However, it was getting late and this was the closest location to my house. Warning: parking is very bad because it is located in the same shopping center as other restaurants and stores such as Kohl's and Trader Joe's. My order was ready by the time I got there. There was a long line inside at 8:50pm and the reviews about the restaurant being a mess were true. The trash cans were full and there were napkins and forks scattered all over by the fountain drink area. However, I was acknowledged by a staff upon approaching the pick up area and she assisted me right away. The steak was actually very good, much better than other locations I have ordered from. Definitely will be ordering again soon!

Two for one deals are available at Tacos Ensenada on Thursdays for select meats: asada, carnitas,…read morepastor, and pollo. Each taco came out to $1.75 pre tax and 4 tacos was $7.72 after tax. Got to try all four and my fav was Asada followed by, surprisingly, pollo. Asada was just solid grilled meat, tender and chewy (which I liked), while pollo was a stewed chicken with great flavor. Usually I'm iffy on chicken since it tends to be dry, but not here. 3% transaction fee for cards. Would highly rec to check them out also on Tuesdays, where the fish taco also has a 2 for 1 deal.

(+) Texas toast (+) Tender chicken fingers…read more (+) Canes sauce Raising canes is a chain restaurant that specializes in chicken fingers (tenders). Coleslaw, texas toast, french fries and their famous sweet tea round out their menu. Combinations and quantity of chicken fingers vary in their different combo boxes. Catering options are available for bulk orders. There is an app that can be used for ordering. Food/Drinks: The chicken fingers are my favorite because of how light and crispy the breading is. Even the chicken is tender and perfect saltiness. Don't forget the hot sauce! My tip is to pour the hot sauce into the cane's sauce and mix it around with your chicken finger. It creates the ultimate flavor! The combos can be altered where you can substitute items easily. Service/Ambiance: Drive thru and take out options are available. The service is good here. No complaints. The restaurant is clean and well lit. A great place to enjoy a quick meal with friends of family. Overall, this is my home store because of how close it is to my house. Nothing beats a box combination with sweet tea!

Every bite was warm, comforting, and satisfying. The empanada itself was cooked perfectly with a nice texture on the outside and very crunchy. Overall, I really enjoyed my visit. The food tasted fresh, the empanada was delicious, and I left wanting to come back and try more flavors. If you're looking for something different and flavorful, I definitely recommend giving the Alfredo chicken empanada a try.

Was on yelp looking for a new place to try some foods because I just moved around here recently,…read moresaw this place and it looked good! Empanadas! Although I'm not a huge fan of the empanada dish itself, this didn't leave a bad first impression. Service is A1! They explained how to eat it, what flavors they had, and what to eat it with. Sauces and what not. I bought a dozen empanadas. 3 Birria, 3 Spicy Asada, 3 pizza ones, and 3 chicken ones. The one I enjoyed most was the spicy asada ones. They also offer chimichurri sauce and consome for the birria empanadas. Ambiance is like a small mom and pop shop. The time I went, which was a little early, still had some foot traffic. Parking is a problem there but you can always park across the street and walk across she street via crosswalk to get to the establishment (very short walk)
