I was looking for a place to eat in Old Town Monrovia and came across Sena on Myrtle after seeing that the reviews were pretty solid. I wanted to try a place that served something other than typical American food and also had a good alcoholic beverage menu, so this seemed like a good choice. The wait wasn't bad, and I was seated toward the back of the restaurant in a quieter outdoor area, which I really liked. There was plenty of shade, comfortable seating, plants used as décor, and an overall relaxed atmosphere. It felt tucked away enough to enjoy the meal without too much noise. Convenient for me as i had my little one with me. I ordered a watermelon jalapeño margarita, but with vodka instead of tequila, and Tajín on the rim. It was delicious! It had a refreshing, flavorful taste which was exactly the kind of drink I was hoping for. For food, I ordered the steakhouse tacos. The tacos were tasty and cooked really well, but the portion size was a little disappointing. They only come with two tacos, plus tortilla chips and sauce, so paying around $16 felt a bit pricey for what you get. The food itself was good, but I definitely wished the portion was a little more generous. Customer service was excellent. The staff was friendly, and I really liked my waitress. She had a warm personality and took care of my order within a reasonable amount of time. Place was worth trying. The atmosphere was nice, the drink was great, the food was cooked well, and the service was lovely. read more

My daughter took me for Mothers Day to this restaurant and I LOVED it!! I would DEFINITELY come back. The drive is OK if you don't mind driving out to Monrovia from LA. Found parking for free which is ALWAYS nice. The menu isn't that large which is kind of good. Less choices, less decisions to make; therefore, quicker for me to order. Special drink menu for Mothers Day. I LOVED my pomegranate margarita. It tasted SO GOOD and it was SO PRETTY!! I'm VERY picky about my chiliquilles. I HATE soggy chips. I am delighted to report that it was perfect! The service was very good. Always a plus. I LOVED the ambiance. We sat outside in the back of the restaurant. Several areas to sit. The only issue was that it was HOT so we didn't dare lean back into our seats. I would definitely come back. read more

Stopped by for Monday happy hour and it turned into one of those unexpectedly great nights. The pricing is solid, especially for the quality, and it's a great way to ease into the week without it feeling like a typical Monday. The ambience really stands out warm lighting, a relaxed crowd, and a laid back energy that feels both lively and comfortable. Sitting outside under the stars added to it, giving the whole evening a calm, almost getaway feel. Food came out fresh and well-prepared, and the service was attentive without hovering everything flowed naturally from start to finish. Add great company to the mix, and it easily becomes a standout night. Overall, a strong happy hour spot with great value, solid food, and an atmosphere that delivers. A+ read more

Sena might just be my new favorite restaurant. Located on Myrtle in Monrovia this is an absolute gem in the gem. I ordered the special of the day, Niks steak sandwich, and it was absolutely amazingly diabolicaly delicious! The chimichurri with the provalone blended with the super tender steak beautifully. The bread was as soft as the pillows at the Vegas Wynn, if u know, u know. I gobbled up that thing like it was my first meal out of jail. Bailey was super attentive and sweet as well, will be back. read more

Tacoooo Tuesdaaaay! Such a great deal for these amazing tacos! I'll definitely come back soon with my family. Service was wonderful! Very very kind staff and lots of space during the day time, but I know this place probably gets packed. They have a cute back patio that I'd prolly want to sit in next time. Pescado, beef, and shrimp were AMAZING! read more

I got to go back to Sena On Myrtle with more friends and a fur baby, after we were turned away from another restaurant not allowing dogs. We knew Sena on Myrtle would seat us with my friend's dog and we are so glad we went here instead! We were seated outside on the Myrtle street patio on a Saturday night. It was pretty loud and rowdy inside and outside since there was a game going on but we didn't mind it. My friends and I got appetizers and dessert to share: sweet potato fries and churros to start. Our little fur baby guest sitting under the table also got her own thing off the dog menu (which is relatively knew I heard). We ordered her a chicken breast and it was served warm and cooked for her to eat as well. What a nice addition! We were so glad Sena is dog friendly. They even have a selection of non-alcoholic drinks for gals like me, like their non-alcoholic Virgin Michelada - I would come back just for this drink! I ordered their Summer Steak Salad and my friends ordered a variety of tacos. The salad was just what I was looking for - fresh with a little zing, which I loved. All the food was affordable, reasonably-priced, and delicious. Our servers were also both really friendly and funny; part of the experience here is that you get the most friendliest of servers and they make sure your party will have a great time. read more

We love Sena and go regularly but service has been really bad lately. The host is really unfriendly (no welcome, hi, how are you doing). We've had a lot of good dinners here and enjoy the food but at this particular time service was really bad and slow. Food was decent, though the fries tasted like fish (maybe fried in same oil?). The servers saw we needed service but ignored us and went to chat behind the bar against the wall, giggling and gossiping. Such a disappointing experience, we love Sena but will start going to Basin or The Diplomat or The State more. read more

Trying this place for Taco Tuesday. Food was good, the Korean short rib taco was too sweet, not for our taste. Margaritas, micheladas, fish taco our favorite and sweet potato fries so yummy! Lady server was nice and polite. Not the guy, rude service. No smile, not attentive. Hope next time he's in a better mood. Overall will be back for happy hour, cool ambiance This is pets friendly with menu for your fur baby! Nice touch! Parking everywhere (check time limit) and in the back. read more

This is our favorite happy hour spot in Monrovia! My sister and I loveee the shrimp tacos, it never disappoints. On top of that, I always get the crispy chicken slider along with the $4 happy hour taco (one time it was carne asada, another time was pescado-- both were delicious). My favorite go-to drink would be the hibiscus margarita or the red sangria-- would actually get both some days. My friend enjoys the salsa and chips for $3. Service is pretty good, ambiance is nice. Place is wheelchair accessible, and parking is everywhere. read more

I've been here 3 different times. I enjoyed what I ordered every visit. The food here is amazing. David is an outstanding server. Super attentive and does provide good menu options. Great vibe. Great music. Seating inside and out. They even have a back patio. First visit I tried their Mediterranean Chicken Bowl. I gave this dish a 10/10 and recommended it to my sister my second visit and she loved it. My second visit I tried their Buffalo Wings. Crispy on the outside juicy on the inside. Made perfectly. 10/10. My third visit with hesitation I ordered the short rib chilaquiles with both red and green salsa per David's recommendation. Probably the best chilaquiles I've ever had. The chilaquiles were crispy and stayed crispy throughout. Both salsas were delicious and although green tends to be my favorite I actually preferred the red for this one. The short rid was tender, juicy, and flavorful. All the elements on this dish could stand alone but were perfect together. read more

I booked a table for five for mother's day. Everything was terrific. We sat outside and were greeted and served promptly. The service was spot-on, very much appreciated that. The food was very good. I had red chilaquilles with chorizo added. Wow, great stuff. Oh, and their salsa is tasty. The rest of the table had chips and guac (both homemade and delicious), burgers, burritos and fish tacos. Overall the food was worth returning for. The only snafu was the food came out in stages, two meals first, then quite a bit later, three meals. Fortunately, we were chatting and enjoying champagne, so the staggered meal service wasn't a deal-breaker. read more

The service was great! They accommodated us with seating outside w/ heater lamp. They were busy/full inside. We started with mimosas & quac &chips. My friend & I could not decide what to order .so we ordered the chicken sandwich & chilaquilas plate & split it. All was delicious! Including mimosa. I'm looking forward to coming back to Seña On Myrtle. read more

Food was very, very good even my Grandchildren gobbled down every morsel that came their way LOL We sat out on the sidewalk since they were having a private Birthday party on the back patio which limited their seating for the day. It was a chilly day so I do recommend that you bring a sweater in case you are sitting outdoors on a cloudy day... and even inside where the large windows are. Parking is directly in front of the restaurant but also additional is in the back, Respectfully Reviewed. read more

Service was really good!!! Our server Amanda was very attentive the entire time ! With good personality! The food is just ok I ordered the Chop salad and guac. Could have been better seasoned but I did like how you get big portions. I'll try something else next time! The ambiance is cool not very upscale or modern, but the outside patio is nice. It gives more bar vibes than a dine in to eat. I heard they have a good taco Tuesday so maybe I'll come back for that. Plenty of street parking Located in old town Monrovia. -Marshay D. read more

Stumbled across this place via my work for their networking event on Taco Tuesdays. I've been to Main street Monrovia a couple of times but always missed this place. It's got good vibes for a nice cozy get together with friends/coworkers not too loud nor quiet. General TLDR, more information below: Service & Ambience: 4.5/5 food: 2.5/5 The service here is great, the staff is always mindful and checking up on us to see how our meal is doing and if we need anything else. Now onto the food itself: Spicy Buttermilk fried chicken taco : Never have I ever thought I would see buttermilk fried chicken in a taco... I'd say the appearance is it's main impact. Taste wise, I think the seasoning of the chicken couldn't stand on equal footing with the havarti cheese and sriracha as they were too overpowering. the tenderness of the chicken was there though. al pastor: As a control, i opt'd for al pastor to get a gauge of their taco chops, figuratively speaking. I want to say it generally felt tasteless, the guacamole didn't have enough seasoning. I'd probably expect maybe a pineapple piece to accompany the taco too for aesthetic/taste. for $4.5 on Taco tuesday, I'd expect at least two tacos probably for that price not just for one short rib grilled cheese: Feeling still a bit peckish, I ordered a short rib grilled cheese. I'll say I couldn't taste any short rib as I feel it was masked with the aioli/caramelized onions/provolone cheese. I would not recommend this the next time I go and probably go for the more traditional American options. Parking is fairly convenient around here as there are various free public parking spots dotted around the street. As a first time goer, I'd just around 1 block from the street and you'll see public parking signs. read more

Burrito was so delicious! The steak was cooked and seasoned to perfection and Frank provided fantastic service.

Stumbled upon Sena after hitting 2 restaurants that were closed Mondays. $5 Margaritas -- SOLD! And wow, didn't expect food to be sooooooo yummy! I ordered Carnitas Taquitos & hubby, Brunch Burrito and WOW!! The Burrito is an absolute must try here! Perfect cubes of steak and egg &cheese perfectly balance. Icing on the cake was the sliced fresh avocados vs the guacamole-- there's certainly a difference coz that's what in the taquitos and my taste buds tell me so. read more

The food was good but the service was not. We were a large group and our waitress was good and patient in taking all of our orders. When we got our food, mine was missing one taco as I ordered two. The person who brought our food (not the waitress) was rude and annoyed that I asked for the second taco. He rolled his eyes and said that the order was submitted and brought out and that was that. Everyone around me let him know that I ordered two tacos (that is how they are sold, by two) he was extremely rude and unapologetic about his behavior. Not interested in going back with such service. read more

Came here with a reservation and they put us right in front of the huge tv. Really good if you want to watch a sports game. I've been here a few times for drinks but this visit was the first time I tried the food. I was surprised how good it was. I tried out these. Buenos Nachos - Wow, chips were fresh and the short rib meat and cheese were really good. For $14 it was pretty loaded. (4.5/5) Buffalo Wings - I was surprised how good these turned out to be. Perfectly cooked and flavor was strong. It was amazing. (5/5) Chicken Avocado Sandwich - The chicken was a bit dry but the sauces and bun were really good. Chicken had a lot of flavor even though it was on the dryer side. Still delicious. (4/5) Overall the experience was great. Service was fast and efficient. Food was delicious and the ambience was nice and dark. A solid place in old town Monrovia to grab a meal or drinks. read more
