Their ceviche is completely on point . It very fresh and they add a lot of lemon. Their chips taste fresh and light too.

So usually I'm always pleased when I come here and over the moon with the service and the food....this by far was the worst experience I have ever had! The wait for the food was about over 40 minutes. In between that the waitress switched off and never came to check on us. I had to ask the kind bus boy to please get our server which he did. The waitress came out and shared that she didn't know what happened with the food. I will say the she brought out chips and guacamole for us. However the actual food that we ordered was horrible. Overcooked and rushed! For example, the shrimp tempura tacos were chewy and dry as if they were cooked already and recooked. The food wasn't okay even up to their standards with how things are usually cooked. It was as if they forgot about the order and then rushed to cook it...but at that point why rush and just do it properly. Granted the food wasn't the waitress fault but it was as if she forgot she had a table. The waitress never came to ask how things were or anything. Highly disappointed with how this went considering I brought family and spoke of how great the food usually is... read more

The L. A. Madame is literally one of THE best meals I have ever had in my life. It was beautifully crafted both in appearance and flavor profile, also there is something very comforting as if I could feel the love and care of that the chef out into it. My husband also had the Burrito No. 5 which was also dense and delicious. read more

Such a neat little find. I went once unknowingly in the evening for beer and another during lunchtime in the day. Since I don't remember much of that night, except that there was a bouncer and I didn't quite enjoy the beer I was having, this review is just for my experience in the daytime. I loved their Kobe beef sliders on their specials menu (Thursday at noon). It came with two sliders filled with generous bits of bleu cheese and just had the most wonderful taste to it all. Don't let the word sliders fool you. These two little bad boys are decked out and can easily be one single regular burger. Their fries also taste fantastic. It might be twice fried? I forgot to look on the menu, but regardless, I still dream of those fries right now. They had other enticing items on their menu like the short rib grilled cheese and the lobster grilled cheese that I will definitely be coming back for. The burgers looked fantastic too. I didn't much care for the beer selection there, but my coworker said that their margaritas are bomb. There are plenty of seating in the back patio area down the hall, past the bathrooms if the front gets filled up. Plenty of free parking on the streets, even at night. read more

Just beware that they don't tell you in advance that they charge 18% gratuity automatically for parties of 6 or more. We ordered off the happy hour menu and it's not listed anywhere on there so we ended paying like 40% gratuity. I feel they should have that listed on their menu or they should tell you. When you're in a hurry to make a movie you can miss that like I did tonight. Called management and they didn't even offer anything to make things things better. Poor management. Won't go there anymore. read more

First time trying this place and it was delicious. Had the fish tacos, the Verde pork tacos and the special birria grilled cheese. They were all very flavorful. Very tasty. The side of tortilla chips were very fresh. Loved every bite. Will definitely be back for more. read more

It was a rough week and a rough Friday for both my friend and I. We got to Sena just in time. We were sat right away and got amazing service from Edgar. He had such a friendly vibe! The attentiveness from him and the rest of the staff (along with the delicious drinks and food) really helped to make our night so much better. Just what we needed! Thank you Edgar and Sena! Can't wait to go back! read more

I went into Sena on a Wednesday night around 7:30 and the young lady that sat me was so sweet! It looked a little hectic in there which is why I gave 4 stars instead of 5, but she made it look so easy! The food was fantastic and service was on point!! read more

This is the best veggie burger I have ever had hands down. I can't wait to have it again! I am so sorry our terrible governor is shutting them down yet again! read more

Perhaps the best spot in Monrovia. From Sunday brunch to Saturday nights. I'd rate it a 6 star if I could. Keep it up!

Came here after our hike. Cute downtown area with some al fresco dining. Chose this restaurant because they are dog friendly. No wait on a Saturday at 2pm and got a nice table out front. Inside is bigger than you think with more outdoor seating in the back! Service was on point and server kept the refills coming. Food came out quick and hot! Everything we ordered was delicious and fresh!! (Seastack, wings, fish and chips, short rib grilled cheese with potato salad) We enjoyed everything and world definitely come back! Thanks for also having a bowl of water for our dog read more

Been here a few times. I had their Filet Mignon Tacos on my first visit and just about every visit after that. I tried their Lobster Grilled Cheese Sandwich this time and my girlfriend had the Pastrami. Man that Lobster Grilled Cheese was something special!! I'd recommend anyone here. Jeff sat us and was really friendly! read more

HH everyday of the week! Sure why not! Can't ever go wrong with extra discounted food! ordered: *8 oz gringo burger $9 + $3 avocado & bacon w/fries - fries were kinda addicting for some reason. i really didn't expect much from the fries but it had a light crisp to it. this burger does get a bit messy since there's a whole lot going on especially when i added the avocado and bacon with it. this burger is very typical as there's nothing super spectacular about it. *8 oz nic burger $11 w/fries- the wagyu beef on this burger is what knocks it out of the park. texture wise the meat is super soft. definitely a favorite here among other yelpers and my hubby! *HH queso dip $3 - this was a bit watery. i was imagining something a bit more thick. definitely didn't make a dent on this appetizer as it was not that great and eating more of it would've been a waste of calories. *HH kobe truffle slider $4 - i would recommend this slider! a bit bigger than your average slider so two of this and some other appetizers from the HH menu you'll be filled up! the kobe meat was soft and juicy. service wise we got seated by the hostess right away. only down fall is there's one waitress and she was taking care of the front of the house. lets say it was packed and she's pregnant so you can't expect to get everything you need in a timely manner. we had to flag down the hostess to help us get a refill. and during my dining experience the hostess seemed to have been done with her shift so the poor waitress was left to run the place with the bartender behind the bar and one food server. making eye contact with staff was hard as they were obviously short staff and busy. sena on myrtle please hire more help!! overall, sena on myrtle was okay. a solid 3 stars especially with offering HH everyday of the week! tips:: *indoor and outdoor seating *serves alcohol *street parking or free parking lot down the street and just walk. *accepts cash and credit card *can get pretty loud when there's a game on. read more

Solo business trip had me wondering what to do until a friend suggested this as a great local place. Though narrow, the tap list is decent. Highly suggest the guacamole and salsa. I couldn't decide between the fish and short rib tacos, so they worked up a combo for me (so worth the ww smart points). The real star was our server Connie. She was funny, professional, and completely in front of anticipating our needs - an absolute rockstar that I will request the next time I am in town. Totally positive experience in every dimension. read more

I've been going to Sena for years now & I always order the pork nachos, which are usually amazing. However, this past Sunday the pork, Which is usually smokey & very flavorful had absolutely no flavor and I was chewing tasteless meat. I had to drench it in Sena sauce and salsa. It was very disappointing. I'm not sure if this is there "new" pork or if it was just a bad batch. read more

The restaurant seems small because as soon as you walk in it's a bar (Tiny area) and they pass the bathrooms and it just opens up into this large area/patio area that is awesome it gives you the feeling of sitting inside and you are outside. I am looking for to going back! Now about the food it was amazing but the service not so amazing...I ordered the pulled pork tacos and when the food was dropped off at the table the waitress name the wrong plate so I let her know and her response is well I am pretty sure it's the tacos you order I just said it wrong name. I asked her again what plate that I go and again I got a pretty sure answer but again not certain and I asked if she could go back and ask the cook and again she was pretty sure I got the pulled pork tacos and I asked if she ordered them before-No so how would you know. But I let her know Yelp will hear about this. So next time I will order the other tacos and I will hopefully be able to tell what I eat both visit so I could rave about it so you can order it and enjoy it too. read more

Came here for happy hour and we barely made it- sat out front at a little table. We went with fish tacos and the nachos. Also had a jalapeño margarita. The fish taco was good- the the piece of fish is so big that you can barely pick up the taco to bite it. But with some of their spicy sauce in the bottle it was perfect and filling. The nachos don't look like much but they were great. It was the beans and creamy cheese sauce that had me eating them up. The margarita was way too spicy. They didn't even de-seed the jalapeños - I was so worried I would swallow one- there were at least six floating in my drink. And at least three slices of jalapeño- I removed them. Overall it was a good time- took awhile to get them to pick up bill and payment. I hope to be back to try more of the menu and give them another star or two. read more

So my friend introduced me to this place about two years ago and I absolutely loved it every single time I've come since. However, my sister and I went today for happy hour to enjoy and the service was terrible. I get it I work in customer service and it's exhausting. But when you sit at the bar and have to listen to how tired they are and they are on their phones is a whole different level. Both bartenders during our time there would not look at us would, did not check up on us unless we asked for something. We felt so uncomfortable and bothersome. I hope everyone who goes has better service then we did. Sad to say because this WAS one of my favorite spots. read more

You can park on the streets. They also have public lots near by. The alcohol drinks are quite strong!! The cheese and chip dip was delicious!!! I was here for a graduation. Great atmosphere! read more

Been coming here for years. Great food and drinks. Happy hour is amazing and the prices wow. How can you serve that type of quality at those prices? Do not stop maybe that is why you are so popular and jammed packed every day. read more

I have been here multiple times and have enjoyed it. A staple in Monrovia and a must visit attraction on the weekend.

We had a great experience here. They have a nice outdoor seating area in the back, which is where we were seated. The music and vibe were great. This was our first time out to dinner in a long while and we thoroughly enjoyed it. We had just gotten in from the beach, so it just added to a feeling of being on vacation. We started with the loaded nachos which were delicious, and an excellent value. Our daughter got a quesadilla that she loved, husband got burger #2 which he was stuffed but forced himself to finish it, and I got the steakhouse tacos with sweet potato fries. My only wish was that the bits of steak were a little smaller since I had some trouble biting into the tacos. Next time I plan to try the salmon tacos because they sound delicious and I will be getting the nachos and sweet potato fries again. Also, the staff was great and very friendly. read more

I came here for lunch on my birthday with my co workers. I'm a vegan and asked the server if the veggie patty had dairy or egg or gluten and she told me that it had non of those. I asked her twice to make sure. She assured me that it was vegan friendly. After eating half of it I started getting a stomach ache and noticed white cream texture in the patty. I asked the server what it was and she told me mushrooms! Um no! Then she went back and asked the chef what was in it and there is eggs and bread crumbs!!!! Wtf' thanks a lot for ruining my birthday Sena! I feel like crap and I'm disgusted! Never coming here again! It's 2017 and the staff should know what vegan means at this point! *** update*** they gave me a gift certificate to come back and I didn't have to pay for my beer or non vegan meal. I'm still upset especially since it's my birthday and I haven't eaten animal products in 7 years!!!! read more

Three of us came in to visit the sister restaurant to Nikki C's.. We shared the (huge) chicken nachos. Crispy, house made chips piled high with chicken, cheese, crema, tomatoes, etc. add the Nikki sauce and it's magic. That would have been enough food honestly. But I had to have the lobster grilled cheese. It's not too cheesy and there's a lot of lobster in it. Yum! Next time I'm trying the tacos read more

We are local & have been here several times. Food & drinks are always great, service can be hit & miss but today was an exceptional. Andrew our server was great & attentive even during the happy hour rush. The weather was perfect to sit outside in the patio to enjoy our food. If we ever see Andrew working a shift I'll be sure to pop in & stay instead of walking on by. Side note, the "pretend window hinge" that is being used to hold the north bar window open is extremely dangerous if it pops off & slams on someone hand/arm if they are sitting at the table next to it. read more

Food quality is average, nothing to complain about. Got the quesadilla plate which was pretty good, cheese was cold and solidified when I picked it up, sauces were eh read more

Ok, we went back. Good service- good food. Enjoyed our time and will continue to return. :D

I had walked by Sena so many times while going to other eateries. So I decided to give it a try. Went to happy hour which is 4-7 everyday. I really liked this small but intimate bar. I sat outside on the patio which was nice to people watch. I ordered off the happy hour menu which was great. I tried the white and red sangria (both are delicious) one of the best I have had in a long time at a happy hour. Me and my daughter tried the fish tacos, ceviche tostada and chips/salsa. The ceviche and chips/salsa are freshly made. The portions just right and filling. The servers waiting on the tables on the patio were attentive, the service was awesome. I think I have found my new happy hour spot. Yes, it gets packed but the hostess keeps it moving to ensure guest are seated within a reasonable time. Our wait time was less than 10 minutes on a Friday evening. read more

came for the happy hour. loaded nachos were pretty good. i got some salsa and sena sauce on the side which really added some more flavor. a little pricy for a soda. $4. waitress never refilled my water or soda. wasn't really able to enjoy myself as there was a table filled with people screaming and laughing at the top of their lungs right next to us, but that is not the restaurant's fault at all. overall, pretty good. read more

Absolute favorite local spot. The food is incredible, the staff is friendly and fun and the drinks are delish. Anything with short rib is to die for. The short rib grilled cheese for a hardy entree and the short rib egg rolls for the best app of your life! Great place for date night, grabbing a drink with a friend or family dinner. read more

This is our spot, whether it's Happy hour, taco Tuesday or brunch we love the consistency we receive at Sena on Myrtle and the crew is fantastic and Connie is the best!

The service was definitely subpar. It took a while to be greeted and give my drink order. My order was wrong and no one was around to ask to fix it. Refilling my glass was a lost cause. Had to eat most of my meal with no napkins. No one seemed to look my way or even walk by my table. I would have given this place one star, but the food was pretty decent. It's not worth the price though. Over priced food and horrible service is not worth going back. read more

Best choice of meals! Makes it difficult to decide what to order! Great staff! I'm only here for two months but definitely make this my #1 choice so as to sample everything! Super large shrimp wrapped in bacon was excellent! Only 4 shrimp, but they are so large it made a full meal for me! And I'm not one of those petite ladies that can eat an olive and be full. I need the whole pizza with olives to feel full! Excellent movie theater directly across the street. This is a must go to place for great food. Plus low prices! I don't know how they can stay open! read more

Nice ambiance, but loads of issues with our order. The nachos were delicious, but the shared portion was not reasonable especially with the adding of the steak almost being the same price of the appetizer itself. The Cobb salad was ehh. They forgot the blue cheese, but rectified the situation, but I've had better. The chilaquilles could've used more sauce. The burger we ordered was the most disappointing. The ingredients on the menu were not on the burger along with the customized ingredients we asked for. The Cesar dressing doesn't taste like it should either. It was more of a ranch taste. Finally, loads of errors on out tab, so I would recommend checking your bill upon paying. They stated they had a computer glitch when processing my payment, and charged me three times my charge. read more

The biggest problem I have with Sena is that I live 50 yards from it and I need to pay rent. If I didn't have to pay rent I would be at Sena on a daily basis. I debated giving less than five stars because one time the service was poor, however the staff was in between shifts and I can understand that. Because of the delay they took care of a sangria, thus I'm not mad. Sena knows how to create a menu that can please everyone. It's hard to explore the entire menu because if you have their tacos it's hard to decide to order anything else, unless you count their delicious nachos. Did I mention their guacamole is perfect? It is. The crowd can be a little crazy at times, but after all they do have a bar. I would tell anyone who wants consistent quality food in Monrovia, go to Sena on Myrtle. I don't work in the restaurant industry but if I did I would totally want to join their team. read more
