    The Impossible Davey Dog
    Melissa L.

    Oh Monty's Culver City, I miss you so... but honestly, their Ktown location provides wonderful service and experience and the food is just as good, if not better. The biggest struggle (at least for me having been spoiled by the parking lot near their now closed Culver City location) was finding parking, but street parking is available and there are some public lots nearby that are within walking distance. It's a smaller and cozier space with mostly bar seating and a couple of tables. While the Culver City location is truly missed, I'm happy that one of my favorite vegan spots is still accessible here in Ktown.

    Double Cheeseburger and Tater Tots
    Janet K.

    Whenever I drive by, I would see a long line and have been wondering what's the hype from all the vegan and non-vegan peeps. Being my first order, I decided to go with the double Cheeseburger, Strawberry Milkshake, and Tater Tots. I loved all of them! The Double Cheeseburger was prepared neatly and it tasted pretty good! I was pleasantly surprised. I am not vegan but I can vouch and say it did scratch the itch of my cravings for a burger which most likely would have been super thick and heavy. I can't say this is just like an actual real burger because it's not and definitely has a different flavor. But his is the best vegan burger place I've tried yet and I would order again! Their house sauce is similar to In-n-out. I appreciate they include pickles in the burger providing the crunch factor. The cheese on my burger was spectacular on the burger, super gooey and melt in your mouth-wow! The strawberry milkshake was super good! Creamy, thick, a lot of strawberry, and loved the whipped cream with the sprinkles! This actually tasted like a regular milkshake! I wouldn't have known this was vegan at all. Tator Tots were perfection. Crunchy and cooked well! Yum! Overall, I get the hype of Monty's especially for the vegans. Their overall menu is pretty well-rounded with unique choices which I respect instead of just copying the fast-food chains. I do have to say I think the price should be marked down a dollar or three to make this my go-to. If I'm in the mood/ in the area, I would definitely get my same order again and try the Nashville Hot Chicken sandwich or the tenders!

    We were looking for food in the evening and this place caught our eye. It's a small diner and I like the vibe. At first we didn't realize it was vegan but we were famished and still down. We all got the Double Single with 50/50 (fires & tots). It was really good. I'm glad it was Impossible instead of Beyond (cause it's tastes like cardboard). Vegan is not for everyone. One of my friends didn't like it even though he finished his food. But he really liked the fries and tots. The guys working were hustling behind the counter and they were fun to talk to.

    Great lemonade! I'm a snob (btw)

    Cuties girlies serving the most delish burgers and tots! They had a lunch special that was perfect and even welcomed my sweet dog Samsun in! Great vibes, pumping rock tunes and delish eats! I'll be back.

    I can appreciate the fact that vegan fast food places are on a rise, and Monty's is a prime example of one of these chains! It is a wonderful alternative, whether you are vegan and looking for a quick eat, or not vegan and are looking for something good to eat. Although pricy, the food is so good and definitely worth a try. The side sauces they have compliment the burgers so well!! I ordered their single patty burger (9/10) and a bit of their chicken sandwich (10/10). Fries and tater tots are a must. I would like to try their grilled cheese next! The interior design is pretty small, but it also looks really cool. Service was good, no complaints :)

    The ambience was clean, services were face however the food was not as described by a lot of the reviews. I paid $33 for two double burgers. They don't have gluten free options for the bread, the biggest concern as my diet has been restricted, they use vegetable oil. Just because it's "vegan doesn't mean it's "healthy" or "healthier". The vegetable oil is highly processed. For the price point my expectations were bigger. The place was clean, staff was kind. After I ate, the food hurt my stomach. I read a review where someone said it's the vegan in n out burger, unfortunately that comment is misleading and not true. I'm not angry writing this review. Few things can get improved. I would not go back to this location unfortunately. The burger was cooked well however, the taste was very plain.

    They tricked me My knowledge of this place was that I saw their food truck at the No Values punk fest out in Pomona in 2024. Was at the Wiltern for a show and seemed like a good place to eat. And it absolutely was. It was a "dirty" burger stand with uncomfortable stool seating, a great view of the grill and employees way cooler than my mid 40's self because let's face it I don't know who 2hollis is. Added bonus by the way - they give out free stickers which made my kids who are not old enough to know who 2hollis is very happy. Anyways the food was super tasty. My lady and my I split a chicken sandwich, double burger and 50/50 basket. This is how uncool I am. Started with the chicken sandwich and it was awesome. The burger tasted like....what the what it's a veggie patty This was when I leaned this place I guess doesn't have meat. Tricked me haha. It was all super delicious and I can't wait to return

    Super friendly staff! The cheeseburger with fries was so good! It's on the pricey side, so it was definitely a treat!!! Also, I got really lucky with free street parking...in Ktown?! whuuuut?!

    This is a BURGER. If you are tired of veggie burgers and miss that OG meat patty, this is as close as it gets! From the milkshakes to the fries, everything was so nostalgic.

    It's sad how the food quality has been bad. I haven't order for a long time so I decided to get something tonight and I regret it. I got the dog pile with tater tots for $17 + tax. The whole things was to oily I could finish. It comes with 2 "burger" patties and they were burnt at the bottom, also they didn't put any sauce on it. Maybe it's because they had to get ready in 10 min but this was terrible and dry.

    What's supposed to be a vegan hotdog?

    This is beyond ridiculous I mean, have some pride in the food that you guys are serving. Not only does this look like it was thrown against the wall, but literally every time I order from you guys online I asked for ketchup, you guys give me a mountain of fries, but never any ketchup Jesus Christ...

    Double Good Burger with Fries
    Dante C.

    I got the double good burger with fries and nashville hot chicken sandwich and they both were delicous! Smacking! 10 out of 10 for both, tbh the nashville was one of the best vegan chicken sandwiches I ever had. I also really enjoyed the sodas - The Dr. Monty's and Cherry Bomb flavors were good mixed and also by thereselves to, a big plus you get free refills! I like the old school burger joint set up with the stools and counter being so close to the grill you could watch em cook. I had a really good chat with the assistant manager Riley, he was mad kind and helpful and shout out to the other staff members behind the counter as well. I'll most definitely be back next time in LA!!! So fire!

    Single burger
    Sara R.

    I had the pleasure of attending an event catered by Monty's Good Burger's food truck tonight, and I have to say, everything was outstanding! I went with the single cheeseburger, and wow--this was hands down one of the best plant-based burgers I've had. The pickles were perfectly tangy and added just the right touch to each bite. My son had the chicken fingers, and he devoured them--super crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, just like they should be. Both of us loved the tots, and the fries were crispy and flavorful. Now, the sparkling lemonade deserves a special mention. It wasn't too sweet, just the right amount of fizz, and it's been on my mind ever since. It's honestly a drink I could keep going back for. The biggest surprise of all? Everything was vegan! I couldn't believe how much it tasted like classic comfort food (the burger even reminded me of In-N-Out). All in all, Monty's Good Burger is a must-try if you're into delicious plant-based food that doesn't compromise on flavor.

    Hot dog and tot combo. Only 9.99 with a drink.

I highly recommend this chain location and can vouch for the food and service!!! Is the hype warranted? an astounding YES! I looked into the secret menu and got to try the Mario Fries, Lou's Chicken Sandwich, Quarter Chicken Breast with all their sauces, and Banana Pudding! The staff was lovely and I met Matt, the manager. I was greeted with an excited and hyped staff. They were kind and welcoming. Food came pippin' hot and the first bite of the quarter chicken breast was everything- juicy, smoky, spicy, and filled with seasoning! I heard comparisons between this chain and others and finally understood the difference: the chicken is at the forefront along with different layers of flavor that are in the sandwich! Think of Dave's Hot Chicken but meatier , juicier, and much flavorful. Everything is elevated with subtle sophistication- the slaw, all the sauces, and breading. It seemed all curated individually for your meal. For comparison, it is like getting a pastry at your local bakery vs. at a patisserie in Paris, FR. It's the same dessert but one is much better, especially if you pay attention to the subtleties. If you want to taste Howling Ray's in one dish, this would be it! The other dishes were also delightful, the Lou's sandwich had waffles as the buns with powdered sugar and syrup on top; imagine smoky, savory, with fulfilling sweetness. The banana pudding was also wonderful; not to sweet but subtle flavors with high quality ingredients. The Mario's fries are the ultimate chicken loaded fries and would have you full and fulfilled. Everything was of great. You are paying for quality and you will not regret it, especially if you like flavors and spicy. There is a reason that there is a line even before this restaurant opens. Not only would I recommend this place, I recommend bringing a crew so you can share the experience together. I am now a fan and I will be back and will bringing others with me.

The owner used to be a director and he is the chef, server and host. The place is uniquely decorated with posters and multiple TV screens, which is super entertaining. We ordered the popular Director's Cut Edition Half and Half which is half soy garlic and chili flavor. When we received our tray in a timely manner and it's an overflowing plate! The fried chicken is divided in half so you can see the two flavors well, served with a fruit dipping sauce and the most seasonal fruit you'll have ever seen on one plate. This is not your typical Korean fried chicken spot, but all the fruit works well since the tangy and tartiness mixes well with the fried chicken. The chicken is tender on the inside and fried well despite all the sauce. There must have been at least 12+ different seasonal fruits such as raspberries, pineapples, mangoes, strawberries, blueberries, avocado, grapes, bananas, kiwis, plums, nectarines, korean pear, peppers and more! I love how the fruits are sliced and placed expertly around the whole dish. It's so aesthetically pleasing. I love how it all works together! I absolutely love how friendly the owner is and he always has such a big smile on his face. The place is on the smaller side with about 5 tables, so expect a wait if it is busy. There is a self-service for pop and water, and there are plates, utensils and napkins on the side for when you are eating. There's also some gloves too, which I highly recommend using when you are eating. Do not skip out on Gol Tong Chicken and try out this innovative way of using fruit with korean fried chicken!

Once of the sauces was a Sichuan chili crisp, which gave the chicken more taste. Maybe the chicken was bland because I was supposed to dip it in the sauces? Aside from that, the other sauces were average (ranch and sweet/sour sauce). The salad was definitely a huge miss. They didn't dress the salad properly and only put dressing on top, so I just got a bunch of romaine lettuce at the end. The best part of my meal was the fries, which was crispy and fresh. Also, the fries were pretty generous. I think that the food was just average. Probably will not come back here but glad I came to check out what the hype was about.

I ordered the quarter chicken with rice and salad, and I was really impressed with the portion sizes. Everything was flavorful, comforting, and gave me the kind of authentic Latin food vibes that I love. The sauce was definitely the highlight for me--it was so good that I found myself adding it to every bite. The prices are also fantastic. For the quality and quantity of food you get, this place is truly a gem. That said, there were a couple of downsides. The restaurant itself is very small, with limited seating available. The customer service also wasn't the best during my visit. Since the dining area was completely full when we arrived, we decided to place our order to go. While we were waiting for our food, a table opened up, so we asked if we could sit down and eat there instead. We were told that because we had ordered our food to go, we were not allowed to sit in the restaurant. I found that a bit disappointing, especially since we had already paid for the same food as everyone else dining in. Overall, the food was excellent and definitely the reason I would come back. If I'm in the area and craving their chicken, I'd absolutely return--just with different expectations regarding the seating situation and service.

The chicken is made with thigh meat, so it's really juicy, and the breading has a nice crunch. The slaw goes well with it without taking away from the sandwich. I was planning to eat it when I got home, but after taking test bite at a red light, I ended up pulling over and finishing the whole thing in my car. It was that good. I'll definitely be coming back. The staff was really friendly too. Since it was my first time, I asked a lot of questions about the menu, what was popular, and what was in the Le Coupe Sauce. They were patient, answered everything, and helped me decide what to order. There are a few tables inside and out but the restaurant is small so if you come with a party you may have to wait until a space is free.

    Le Coupe has been on my list since going to YesChef food festival. Was it worth the hype? Sort of…read more The fried chicken in the sandwich wasn't as big as I imagined, or as social media has proclaimed, looking at it top down it only peeked through the bun. But was it still delicious and fried to perfection? Yes. Overall it was a really tasty fried chicken sandwich, the buns held the stack of creamy coleslaw and perfectly crunchy and juicy chicken together well. The bite had great flavour and texture, but it was mostly sweet and creamy. The self advertised slap yo' mama's hot sauce and chili hot honey made me crave some heat that was lacking from the sandwich. Parking was easy and service was great, no reservations needed.
