The scallion pancake was mmm--mmm good! The addition of cooked scallions to the pancake batter meant there were mildly crunchy scallions combined in pancake soft batter. We gobbled it up. It came with soy sauce but the pancake didn't really need a sauce. The kimchi was crunchy and spicy. The egg drop soup was yummy. The bibimbap was large enough for 2 to share. The combination of beef on rice with an array of thinly sliced vegetables was delicious. The next day on the 5-hour plane ride home, we took out our sandwiches. As we were eating them we congratulated ourselves on how smart we were to pack delicious, hearty sandwiches. We don't know why Pomona Kosher Grill isn't packed with customers! The food is excellent!

We got the opportunity today while driving to Vermont from Maryland. We went a tiny bit out of the way. Great food. My spouse and I split a bulgogi sandwich, a cabbage/potato pancake, and an 8-piece order of Korean chicken strips and fries. Too much food for us to eat. We took some home and I ate the rest in our hotel. Bulgogi sandwich was delicious. Thin sliced beef, Asian seasonings, fresh roll. Loved it. Pancake was like an omelette or potato cake. Fresh and delicious. With a delicious dipping sauce. Chicken strips were yummy, fresh, crisp. I had always read about Korean fried chicken and wanted to try it, this was my chance. Definitely enjoyable and delicious, but not the totally new level that I had been imagining. Just goes to show you it's not a burden to keep kosher, you're missing out but not too much. Location was great for us, traveling south to north. I had never been to Pomona/ Monsey. Easy parking in a nondescript strip shopping center. Atmosphere was spartan. Apparently this business started during Covid and a few months ago moved to the current location. Plain, simple, clean, but zero atmosphere. Don't take a date here for romance. Bring a buddy for great food. Service was good. Server Yisroel was charming, relaxed, friendly (we were the only customers when we entered) and we enjoyed being served by him. Value was a bit expensive. We did not order drinks. We paid $63 including tax and tip, a bit pricey for two. I would definitely return because the food was really good. Scores: food 5, atmosphere 3, service 5, location 4, value 3, for an overall score of 4.

I was so excited to try out The Griller after all the hype I've been seeing on social media, but…read moreunfortunately we were really underwhelmed. The Service: The ordering process went pretty smoothly, aside for the fact that the waitress had to ask a manager if she was allowed to give me a pickle on the side. But it's a new place, so I understand not knowing everything yet. Whomever served me my soup (it wasn't the waiter who took our order, it was someone in plain clothes) leaned over my husband, touching him, to serve me my soup across the table. When utensils were brought out, they were all dumped in a pile on the table for us to take ourselves. We had to ask for the check twice, and the store was empty, and the owners/workers were just sitting around talking. When you are a sit-down waitered restaurant charging a mandatory 18% gratuity, I expect the service to match and this was definitely not that. This is the kind of service I'd get at a fast food takeout. The Food: I'm hesitant to comment on the actual food because everyone has different tastes, but I feel the need to mention that I had an upset stomach for the entire following day. I can't say that anything was necessarily raw or spoiled, but there was definitely something up with the freshness of the food. The green bean dish was mushy, as if it was cooked in the morning and sat there all day. That should definitely be a dish that is made to order. I ordered chicken poppers, and luckily I asked for the bbq sauce on the side because it was more like marinara sauce with some spices. The poppers themselves were really good and fresh, but understandably plain since they're meant to go with a sauce. I ended up requesting ketchup on the side. My husband had their supposed best selling burger and said it was tasteless, but I will say that he is a chef and has a higher standard than most when it comes to eating out. The beef onion soup was ok in my opinion, my husband didn't like it. I'm writing this review knowing that they are a fairly new restaurant, and hoping they can use this honest information to make some changes.

I've been cautiously investigating the options near my office, and this to me is the best pizza I've found in the vicinity though honestly it's not that amazing. We've ordered delivery from here once, and I also stopped in earlier this week for a lunchtime sit-down experience. I like their set-up in here - it's very clean, spiffy and spacious. It's directly connected with the Evergreen kosher supermarket, so it's easy to overlook if you're not a regular patron over here. When I came in, I appeared to be the only non-Orthodox on the premises, and I imagine that would be the case most of the time - that said, I didn't feel like an outsider (there are a few places around here admittedly where I have) and the people behind the counter were perfectly pleasant and accommodating. There are quite a few self-serve kiosks to order from, enough where I initially assumed you couldn't order face to face with anyone. I confirmed that wasn't the case after the fact, but the kiosks WERE easy to use. For what it's worth, I've noticed at a few of these kosher establishments that there seem to be an unusually high number of self-serve options; not sure if that's coincidental or not. Regardless, doesn't hurt to have an additional choice if needed. This is not my go-to type of pizza - I'm a snobbier Neapolitan wood-fired or hipster Detroit style creature by and large and it's unusual for me to take a liking to a mainstream, cheaper slice. The visual was the initial selling point here. I like that the typical slice here appears to be slightly well done, which is my preference. Not only that, I think this is the only time I've specifically been given the choice of selecting well done as an option when ordering. Nice touch. It would have been stunning if this had been an issue, but predictably my order was ready to go within about two or three minutes after being heated up. The pizza itself is fine. Its weakest point is the sauce, which is noticeably and way too sweet, and the crust is a bit too chewy/doughy. I do at least like the consistency of the sauce for the most part - I do NOT like chunks in the sauce, and this was pretty smooth though I did take out a few slices of tomato skin (I guess that would be the term?). The cheese is the star here as far as I'm concerned, especially since it is a little burnt on the top, which to me adds a nice little flavoring zip. The neighboring supermarket has a reputation for being very overpriced - I actually wandered in to get a coffee afterwards and my jaw almost fell on the floor at some of the prices of the Hanukkah chocolate - but the price point within the pizza place is very decent. I think each of my slices was about $3.75 or so, which in this environment you'll likely take any day. You could do worse than Pies N' Fries.

I recently had a TERRIBLE experience at Evergreen, and I will NEVER step foot inside there again…read more I am a regular customer that shops at Evergreen several times a week. Customer service was never been Evergreen's strong point, they now reach an all-time low of customer DISservice and outright aggression. Horror story: After shopping at Evergreen for shabbat on Thursday night, my family and I bought food from the hot tables and salad bar to eat in the seating area. I slung my shoulder bag over the back of my seat, and it must've fallen under the seat, and accidentally I left it there. Soon after getting home I realized that I didn't have my bag. I went back to the store and searched the area, found nothing. I then asked the manager, Menachem, if anyone had turned in my bag. He was not at all helpful and his attitude was arrogant and unfriendly. But I just knew it had to be there, so I went back later at around 10:00 pm, and lo and behold! It was a few feet from the seat I where I was sitting, tucked in sideways among the cleaning supplies in the metal shelving unit against the wall. Everything was there, except for $400 in cash. I went to customer service and informed them of my situation, we reviewed the camera to see exactly what had happened. Sure enough a woman from the cleaning staff could bee seen on camera taking my bag, placing it in her secret spot on the shelf and then fiddling around with its contents. Fast forward through three hours of her periodically returning to the bag and rifling through it. Nothing could be done at that late hour as Menachem (the manager) had gone home. I was given hs phone number and instructed to call the next morning in order to get my money back. So I called him and he stalled with a bunch of excuses until I insisted he tell me what he was going to do to recompense me for the $400 that was taken from my wallet by an Evergreen employee. That's when he started yelling at me, telling me he wasn't giving me "nothing" he "didn't owe me a thing" and that there was nothing he could do. He also hung up on me a few times, real professional, right? I then went into Evergreen to talk to him directly and he resumed his yelling and verbal abuse, at one point he even barricaded himself in the little office near the nuts and chocolate section, and SLAMMED THE DOOR IN MY FACE. He obviously could not handle himself so another manager was called over who was a little more rational, but proceeded to gaslight me about the stolen money, saying that maybe I lost it somewhere else, or had spent it without realizing it, and the kicker: how could I accuse someone like I did. It's all on camera, and now I have no choice but to file a police report and never step foot in a place that is so DISRESPECTFUL. I have spent thousands and thousands of dollars at the store, and would probably end up spending the $400 that I had lost there anyway, TALK ABOUT PENNY WISE AND POUND FOOLISH. This is the pinnacle in a series of very poor customer service experiences the I have put up with over the years. NO MORE! THIS PLACE IS NOT WORTH THE ABUSE. -Rachel M., Pomona, NY

Full disclosure - I'm not Kosher, nor am I Jewish, so this was a lunch choice based more on…read moreconvenience/location than anything specific to the food offerings. One of the attorneys in my office (who is Kosher) did speak highly of this place for what it's worth, and I was intrigued by the classy looking menu I grabbed from them during a lunchtime constitutional. Very impressive, and a legit, albeit premature, selling point. There are a lot of Chinese restaurants in this area, and most of them are indistinguishable from one another, right down to the giant paper menu. This one does set itself apart in that regard, at least. Despite the menu (which honestly suggests more of a sit-down experience), Kapao's interior DOES look like every other Chinese establishment, except the proprietors are Jewish, not Asian. I ordered the Sweet and Sour Chicken lunch special (about $14). It was okay, though not great, and for the price should be a lot better. This is literally almost twice as much as you'd pay for this specific dish at any other nearby Chinese takeout place, and it's not twice as good - that's the bottom line. The presentation factor (similar to the menu) IS above average, so I suspect that's part of what you're paying for. Instead of the traditional oyster pail, you're getting the rice and chicken in a fancier, microwave-friendly container. Other selling points are that the sweet and sour sauce is on the thicker side, which is my preference, and it's a strong, standalone flavor, almost to the point where it overwhelms the senses and crowds out the chicken. I also liked the rice, which was softer (I guess technically overcooked?) and easier to consume from my perspective. Unfortunately, the chicken is very mediocre. It's completely tasteless - and that's where the strong sweet and sour sauce is sort of a gift and a curse - and was almost stringy and too chewy in terms of its consistency. A solid portion of it was also overly fried, so almost every piece had a small bite that was just inedible skin. If the price point was competitive, this might actually be a tepid endorsement, especially since the supporting characters are a bit above average. In terms of quality it's not that far off from its nearby competitors, though honestly that's not a particularly high bar to surpass. But you're just not getting your money's worth here unless you place an inflated importance on the to-go containers. My search for a viable lunchtime Chinese option continues.

I love that this is an actual filling station, still with garage doors. You can eat inside or outside - doors were open for the nice weather but I'm sure the place is heated in the winter. Fun sign out front. The very friendly lady at the counter answered all our question and we chatted about the restaurant as we were deciding what to order. All 5 stars so far. So for burgers, I fully admit I'm a bit of a snob and hard to please. I was heartened that these are Pat LaFrieda style burgers: brisket, hanger steak, short rib, not chuck. So I gave it my best shot and ordered a TFS burger (caramelized onion, mushrooms, bacon) with two cheeses, cooked rare, plus a side of onion rings. As others have said here, my "rare" burger came out medium, so I'm sure glad I didn't leave it as the default medium. The burger was a little too salty but otherwise solid and full of flavor like good meats and toppings ought to be. The onion rings were not all that great - solid breading that drowns out the onion, and you don't get a lot for $8 (plus dipping sauces cost extra, unless you just take a ketchup or mustard packet). Verdict: I like this restaurant, but it's not enough to draw me back here or any other Filling Stations (all in authentic garages) without two changes: * When providing high quality meats, please cook burgers thick instead of thin so that they can come out actually rare for the best taste. * There were no prices in the liquor menu. I'm not even going to try ordering a beer (or other) if you don't tell me the cost up front.
