Great cocktails and surprisingly great food too. I enjoyed the artichoke grilled cheese. I was able to upgrade my side to their Caesar salad that actually had grilled romaine so it had a smokiness to it that I've never had in a salad before. Margarita was spot on, not too sweet and not too tart. Highly recommend! read more

This is a cute spot in Monrovia. We stopped in to get a drink and a bite to eat. The kitchen was closed early due to them Being somewhat slow. Wifey had a rosè. It was crisp and delicious Savannah A served us quickly and she was efficient. We will try to come back when we can eat and drink. read more

The State nails it. Came for dinner with family Anselma really loved the burgers in particular. The burger: I ordered mine well-done and it was still juicy -- no dry, hockey-puck situation here. Flavorful, well-seasoned, and the bun held up to all the toppings without falling apart. Fries were crispy and well seasoned. The beignets: Didn't expect dessert to steal the show, but these did. Hot, fluffy, powdered sugar everywhere -- like New Orleans met California. We ordered one batch to share. Service was on point, vibe is modern-cozy, and portions are generous on burgers, not so much with tacos. For better tacos go to Baisin where tortillas are hand made and flavorful. read more

I visited the State for the first time on 05/01/2026 at lunchtime with a party of three. Parking is easy to find, all around Monrovia downtown. The restaurant was kind of empty during our visit today; however, it is a small place -- and it was kind of nice. Every other time I have passed it (usually in the evening) it is packed. So, it was nice to be quiet today. Our service was friendly. I had the spicy chicken sandwich, which is a huge sandwich and it was delicious. It was not really spicy; however, I know -- for the masses. It was still absolutely delicious though. I did upgrade my salad to the side Cesar salad and it also was delicious. Overall, it was a nice win for lunch today. I even was able to wrap up half of my sandwich to bring home later. Dessert -- not this time -- but I'll be back! read more

I went back for brunch and the steak and eggs tacos were SO GOOD! The steak was tender and perfectly cooked and seasoned. I I wish I had taken photos. We also got the chicken and waffles. The fried chicken was perfectly battered and fried and so were the waffles. Both dishes were well-made. Our sever was very attentive. My only suggestion would be for them to have non-diary milk substitutes for the coffee Also, maybe offer a French Press. This was my 4th visit and this and the last visit were my two favorites. Ambiance is spacious, modern and causal. read more

Stopped by during the street fair and grabbed a seat on the patio perfect setup for people-watching. The energy from the crowd paired with the laid back patio atmosphere made it an ideal spot to just sit back and take it all in. Service was quick and efficient, even with the extra traffic from the event. Everything moved smoothly without feeling rushed. Went with a hot toddy, and it hit exactly right smooth bourbon, well-balanced, and served properly hot. Simple, but done really well. Overall, a great stop during a busy day good drinks, easy service, and a patio that really adds to the experience. A+ read more

My wife ordered the Pesto Chicken Sandwich with fries, and she really enjoyed it. The chicken was juicy, tender, and flavorful, served on a delicious telera roll. The applewood smoked bacon added great flavor, and the roasted tomato basil pesto sauce really brought the whole sandwich together. I had the Bourbon Barbecue Burger, and it did not disappoint. The bacon was excellent, and the combination of aged white cheddar, house barbecue sauce, and tempura battered onion rings created a burger that was packed with flavor. Every bite had a great balance of sweet, savory, and smoky flavors. We also shared the braised short rib tacos, which were fantastic. The short rib was tender and flavorful, while the pickled onions, watermelon radish, and serrano peppers added freshness, texture, and just the right amount of kick. The fries were golden and soft. They were not particularly crispy, but they still paired well with the meal. Overall, everything we tried was delicious! read more

There's public and street parking to get here. The atmosphere is nice for a semi-casual environment. The dim lighting indoors is chill and the outdoor seating is fun. You especially get a good breeze from the open front. The volume level is decent even while busy. The food arrive at a good time. I got the Truffle burger. It seems like they cook all burgers to medium. Regardless, it was delicious. The patty was juicy and a good portion to fill up. Thw chips are nice and crunchy, not too salty. Although it took a bit of time to get the check to leave especially when there's a limited amount of tables. read more

The phone number that is provided on the Yelp page kept ringing when I called to see if I can make a reservation over the phone, but no one picked up. Luckily, someone asked the question on the page and someone from the business responded back with a link. I had a little hard time finding where to make a reservation online, but I found it eventually. When I went last, it was New Years eve, so it was extremely busy. I came back on a "normal" weekday and it wasn't as busy. We came back for their tacos and I noticed that they weren't the same. Each taco Tuesday is different and they do not have the ingredients to make the tacos listed the week prior. Love the variety, but saddened to not be able to have something I truly enjoyed available to order. I would call the restaurant to see what tacos are going to be on the menu for taco Tuesday (good luck if anyone picks up the phone). The environment was casual, chill, and quiet. Not too busy with patrons. We were able to order our meals. My husband tried their tacos that they had that evening and he enjoyed them. I also got a barbeque burger that was worth the price. We also got a creme Brule for dessert. The price was $10 and it was a large enough dish to share with someone. I wished someone would have mentioned that the rim was extremely hot. I touched the rim of the bowl and pulled away quickly so I didn't hurt myself. This is the reason for my 4 stars. read more

The State off Myrtle in Monrovia is a small, cozy spot with a great vibe--especially if you can grab a seat on the outdoor patio. Inside, they have a comfortable full bar that adds to the overall laid-back but elevated feel. We were actually able to walk in and get a table pretty quickly on a Friday night--even with a street fair going on along Myrtle, which was a nice surprise. The area itself is great to walk around before or after your meal, which adds to the overall experience. The food was solid across the board. The cheese plate was delicious and a great starter. The shrimp tacos were tasty, and the mac and cheese with shrimp added was a standout--super rich and satisfying. But the real highlight for me was dessert--the chocolate-filled beignets were so good and definitely a must-order. Drinks were also on point. The espresso martini was strong, smooth, and honestly one of the better ones I've had. Service-wise, the staff was friendly and welcoming, but things did move pretty slow throughout the meal, so just come with a little patience. Overall, a great spot for good food, strong drinks, and a relaxed night out--just not if you're in a rush. read more

We visited The State in Monrovia, and overall, the food was excellent -- especially the pork chops! Perfectly cooked and full of flavor. Our server, Edgar, was great -- attentive and friendly throughout our visit. The only downside was the seating situation. They mentioned we needed reservations, but the restaurant wasn't busy for the hour and a half we were there, so there really wasn't any reason not to seat us right away. Hopefully, management can improve that process. Other than that, everything else was great. If you're near Lemon and Myrtle in Monrovia, definitely stop by -- the food is worth it! read more

Summary: 4 stars for strong drinks (Sandra Lee approved), tasty food, and good service. The flavor of the cocktails might not match their description. Food comes out relatively quickly. *** The vibe inside this small restaurant is dark and intimate. The turquoise walls feel Victorian-esque, but the lit up bar adds a modern twist. They sometimes convert the front patio into open air dining before the outdoor bar seats. Most of the tables and booths inside seat parties of 2-4. DRINKS ORDERED On weekdays, there are all-day specials in addition to the happy hour specials ending at 6 pm. For example, glasses of wine are half-off on Thursdays. - Bee's Please ($14 - gin, passionfruit, rhubarb bitters, and honeycomb). I enjoyed the floral taste of the gin, but whew! This was a stiff drink. I felt the burn in my lungs lol. Eating the honeycomb was fun. I couldn't taste the passionfruit, but my boyfriend said it was present as a slight, sweet funk. - Samurai Sour ($14 - gin, plum wine, apricot, egg white). The drink was very strong. Curiously, I perceived pineapple, gin, and maybe bitters. I appreciated the creativity even though the taste wasn't what I was looking for. - August Kessler Riesling ($13/glass). Fruity, crisp, and sweet. - Silver Palm Cabernet ($13). Fruity and bold, slightly sweet. - Marques De Cacerez Red Blend ($12/glass). Bf said this was earthy, so I took a sip. The wine was on the dry side, and I liked that it was not tanniny. MAINS/BURGERS ORDERED - Veloute Chicken ($24). The brussels sprouts and carrots were AMAZING! Maybe they were cooked in the drippings because they were so flavorful and umami. The vegetables were tender and retained crunch. I also liked the mashed potatoes. The chicken breast was juicy, but I didn't like the lemon veloute mixed with mushroom and sun-dried tomato. The creamy sauce tasted more "sour" than "lemony". Also, the amount of sun-dried tomato was overpowering. - Bourbon BBQ Burger ($16). Two thick slabs of bacon and onion rings topped this thick, juicy burger. It was cooked to medium as requested. The burger was lightly sauced, and most of the bbq sauce sat on the onion rings. The sharp white cheddar went well with the burger. I just would have preferred crispier bacon. My side salad was a delicious mix of leafy greens, watermelon radish, and candied almonds lightly dressed in a sweet vinaigrette. - Biergarten Burger ($19 - daily special). The two smash burgers patties on a pretzel bun with mustard. Instead of the side salad, my bf upgraded to a side of onion rings. For the dip, he chose the beer cheese which was fantastic. I liked the concept of this burger, but the sweetness of whatever else was in it threw me off. - Blackberry Burger ($18). The burger was tender and juicy and perfectly cooked. I enjoyed the blackberry BBQ sauce, which was slightly sweet and contained whole blackberries. I also liked the lemon vinaigrette for the side salad. SIDES ORDERED - Onion Rings ($1 upgraded side with a burger - 5 pcs). The onion rings were hefty and crispy. While I appreciated the crunch, the flavor was just okay. The onions were a bit hard and flavorless. We got a side of ranch, which was missing the dairy flavor that I'm looking for in a housemade ranch. - French Fries ($4). These straight cut fries were hot and crispy, like McDonald's but better. They were tossed with parsley or some other finely chopped herb that didn't impart much flavor. read more

Great patio space was perfect with heaters to keep things toasty. The outdoor Christmas ambiance was beautiful. Having our cousins Christmas time was a perfect space for us to enjoy. Food was good. Service was great. A smaller location if you have a big group I'd recommend reserving the whole patio. There's a good amount of open space to mix & mingle. The power went out for a good while during our visit in December. The street lights stayed on but we could definitely tell with difference when our toasty heaters stopped glowing. Street parking lines the downtown area with designated lots within walking distance. read more

My husband and I come here all the time. A little too much if you ask me. Just the right amount if you ask my husband. We've tried multiple menu items - wedge salad, state burger, chicken sandwich, meatballs, bacon wrapped dates, macaroni and cheese, bread pudding, etc. All of these are delicious and we've ordered them time and time again. They have a variety of cocktails that are also great. They've got a full bar with everything you could imagine. The restaurant itself is very nice. There are 3 booths on the side and half booth/half table in the center. You can also sit at the pony bar, actual bar, or outside. Lots of options. We like the side booths or the bar. The staff is super nice and friendly every time we are there. My husband and I usually just walk in and we're able to get a table (around 5-6pm). Fridays are busy due to the night market so be sure to make a reservation on OpenTable. As for parking, there is street parking on Myrtle , the side streets, and there are also parking lots nearby with plenty of parking free of charge. read more

We've been here a few times and really wanted to like this place. The food and drinks feel more elevated than most spots nearby, and as locals in Monrovia, we were hoping it could become a regular for us. This last visit was frustrating enough that we won't be rushing back. We came in just before 6:00 PM with a babysitter and a limited window. The restaurant wasn't busy, maybe five tables, but service was completely off. Our entrée took about 45 minutes. It was comped, but no one acknowledged the delay. No apology, no explanation, nothing. We also got the wrong side (fries instead of onion rings), and while it was corrected quickly, it added to the overall feeling that no one was really paying attention. The bigger issue was how absent the service felt. Our server never came back for a second round of drinks, and I had to go to the bar myself. When I mentioned it, the response was basically that the server was busy with another table, which felt dismissive given how long we had already been waiting. No one was busy. By the time food arrived, it was around 6:45 PM. The problem wasn't just the wait, it was the lack of communication or basic hospitality the entire time. I actually emailed the restaurant directly after our visit and never heard back, which is disappointing and honestly says a lot. At this point, it's hard not to feel like they just don't really care about the customer experience or about keeping people coming back. It's a shame, because the place has potential, but right now it doesn't feel like it's being taken seriously. read more

This quaint eatery was a homeowner for our lunchtime hunger on Friday. We arrived shortly after opening, around d 11:00am. The ambiance was amazing and well thought out. The service was quick and our server was very attentive as she kept our drinks to the brim and checked in often to ensure we had a pleasant experience. The food. This is where it slaps. We both got the BBQ burger with onion rings and shared an order of poutine. The burger was perfectly cooked to order, medium, with a buttery, toasted brioche bun and smokey bacon...delicious. The onion rings...OMG the onion rings. The batter was so thin and so crispy! I would make the 30 mile trip back just for the onion rings! Do not leave here without trying them! The poutine was a tad of their own spin on the Canadian Classic. The meat was so deliciously tender with ample savory gravy over fries and then completely smothered in melted, bubbly cheese. Definitely a shareable item. I would highly recommend as an appetizer or even as your meal. read more

We had a large group of 10, and The State in Monrovia absolutely exceeded our expectations. From the moment we arrived, the entire staff was warm, welcoming, and incredibly attentive. Managing a larger party can be challenging, but they handled everything seamlessly with professionalism and genuine friendliness. Every member of the team, from the hosts to the servers and even the bartender, made sure we were taken care of throughout the evening. Drinks were great, service was prompt, and they constantly checked in to make sure everyone was happy. The food was outstanding--fresh, flavorful, and served in a timely manner for such a big group. Everyone at our table was impressed. It's rare to find a place that delivers both excellent food and top-tier service so consistently. If you're planning a dinner with friends, family, or any larger gathering, I highly recommend The State Monrovia. They made our night feel special, easy, and memorable. We'll definitely be back! read more

I came here the other day because I was curious about this restaurant. This restaurant would be a great place to have a little date. If you don't have reservations, they will seat you at the bar area; so, it's best that you do before hand to get a table. On our 1st visit, we ordered the double smash burger and Brussel sprouts. Both dishes were delicious and my boyfriend and I ended up coming back again for a 2nd visit. On our 2nd visit, we ordered the Caesar salad, braised short rib tacos, and mac n cheese. After trying all the food we had here, I recommend their burgers with fries, Caesar salad, and brussels sprouts. Everything else was either ok or the meat was very dry; which I don't recommend the tacos. Other than that, the waiters were really nice and parking is easy to access; whether it's at the public parking or street parking in old town Monrovia. read more

4.5 for the food. We went for happy hour and this place is a deal. The portions are huge and the quality is great. Ambiance is fantastic with the patio facing the sidewalk. The interior decor is very nice. It seems like fine dining at first but boy the best deal of happy hour in the LA greater region. The only quirk was that the server at first had a bit of an attitude but that changed as well. A definite worth a place to visit and will be back for sure. read more

I want to start by saying that The State is honestly one of our favorite spots. We go not just to the Monrovia location but also the one in Rancho Cucamonga, and overall, the experience is usually amazing. The food is consistently great, the atmosphere is lively, and most of the staff truly go above and beyond--especially when accommodating large groups like ours with kids. That's not easy, and it's appreciated. read more

Came too late for happy hour-- thankfully it was taco tuesday! There was no wait at 6PM when we came in, which was surprising because whenever we pass The State, its always packed. Taco specials: cajun shrimp, beef, and pollo were tasty. Wished the sauce was more fiery. The shrimp tacos were slightly bitter, not sure if it comes from the cooking wine or? Oysters were good, and so was the poutine-- these did give a really great impression on us. Its never wrong to find good spots in Monrovia, and this place is worth the try. Servers were really friendly too! We enjoyed the evening. read more

Love coming to the state! First time sitting at the outdoor bar-like area. It is nice, but also quite close to people walking by so a mixed experience! Food: -classic state burger w fries: always my go to. I realized this time i think they toast their bun with butter because i was in... love. It was so delicious. It's juicy, well portioned, little tucked in pickles add to it, LOVE IT! And the fries, so worth the swap from the greeens -Brussels: partner wondered if the cheese changed but i like it without. Love it! Nothing was burnt or over cooked, just yummy and crisp -bacon wrapped dates: simple and good, again i like it without the cheese and when th bacon is crisppppyy!! Drinks: -i got a vodka tonic: simple and yum. Oooh a bug flew into my drink being outside ._. And.. i was given a new straw for asking. I didn't ask for a new drink but also wasn't offered, maybe it's a norm when outside? -basil bourbon lemonade: similar taste to a whiskey sour for me, the basil wasn't so in it but it was cute! Service: -i really have to get his name but shoutout to the gentleman that worked last night Friday around 5pm! Always takes care of us, checks in oddly whenever we need something, and is just lovely! Will ask his name next time we go Love the state! read more

In the heart of downtown Monrovia. I picked this place out of many because its lighting and sound level of the place. First, I love the decor from the ceiling to the floor. 2nd, the service was attentive and assuring. The wait time for the food was very reasonable. 3rd, price for the food was very acceptable. Drinks aren't bad either. The choices of beer are limited. But they have a better selection of mixed drinks of whiskey, vodka, gin, etc. Overall, I enjoyed this establishment. It gets a 4.9 out of 5. Will return again! read more

One of my favorite happy our restaurant in downtown Monrovia. It has an amazing menu with wide window from 11 AM to 6 PM. I am so bummed I just found about this place but now I am sharing it with all my friends and we frequently come here to eat and grab some drinks. The food they prepare is really delicious and it's cooked to your liking. The staff is really kind. They even offer a coloring sheet and crayons to kids and often bring them fruits as well. It's a kid friendly restaurant. I enjoy the ambience. There is both indoor and outdoor seating. There's great parking both in a public parking lot nearby as well as on the street. I hope you come by and check them out. They have a wonderful drink menu that you can choose from and the waiter and waitresses will be happy to recommend one for what you need for that day. read more

I've come here multiple times in the past few months and love it! Their pesto chicken sandwich is incredibly tasty and they have the freshest bread. The drinks are very tasty too! I got the "girl next door" which is perfect if you prefer a sweeter but not sugary drink. Service is fast and everyone is nice. I like the ambiance and dimmed lights. However I wish they came around to refill water glasses more often. Plenty of parking in the free parking lots around the corner. read more

If you're serious about dining here and don't want to wait for a phantom open table, make sure you make reservations online first, even a few minutes before you walk into The State, as they honor those over people waiting in person. We waited 20 minutes for a table of four without a reservation, while they had three 4-top tables available inside reserved for those with online reservations (those people never materialized during our entire dining visit). They also seated us at the table closest to the door, so we got the cold air every time someone came in and every time a server went outside to serve the patio. We haven't dined at The State since the change from their predecessor, so we ordered a spread of appetizers and entrees and desserts to try it all! Unfortunately, everything was pretty salty: the poutine ($16), the deep fried oysters ($20 for 4 pieces), bruschetta ($10 for 4 pieces), double smash burger ($17 plus extra $1 for fries side), and mamma's meatballs ($16). The two chicken items we had weren't as seasoned (pesto chicken sandwich $16 and veloute chicken $24), so given the choice, might be better to order the chicken dishes instead of the others. We also felt very jipped with the meatballs dish as it only came with four meatballs, two piece of bread, and a whole lot of sauce for $16. Given how salty the dish was, some more bread would've been nice to soak up the sauce and balance out the meatballs. The star of the night were the desserts. The crème brulee ($10) and bread pudding ($10) were the best things we had all night, though we noticed that the caramelized top of the crème brulee was really thick, so half the group skipped that to save their teeth. We've also never had bread pudding served cubed before, but it paired well with the scoop of vanilla ice cream included with the dessert. Service was okay. They were friendly when engaged, but pretty hard to get their attention if you needed something. They weren't super busy either, yet we had to always flag someone down to refill our empty drinks (we downed a lot because everything was salty). Because this is Old Town Monrovia, plenty of parking lots and street parking to go with, even if it's Friday night with the street fair going on. read more

Third time is not always a charm. I've been coming here with my girl-friend / co-worker once a month for lunch and a cocktail. The food always just okay. The cocktails also okay. I mean how can you mess up a martini. We usually come here for the superb service, overall. This third time, Edgar just had no decorum, he unprofessional and should not be in the industry if you don't have the tact that it's required to address the patron. It's not what he said, it's how he said it. The attitude, the undertone under he's breath of words. Just simply rude and disrespectful. He wanted the booth we were sitting at. He said it had been reserved. But there were plenty of other booths / tables available. We had ordered food, couple rounds of cocktails. We were consuming. I didn't get it. But I was not going to entertain a hasty conversation with someone with a poor attitude. We left. We're going to find another spot that will gladly take our business, and our hard earned money too and will treat us with respect for it all. It's a shame because we loved it here. If The State in Rancho Cucamonga was not out of our way, we'd go there instead. Oh well...... read more

I recently celebrated a friend's birthday at The State on Myrtyle Ave in Monrovia, and it was such a great experience from start to finish! I made a reservation on OpenTable, and the hostess had a cozy booth ready for us ahead of time - huge plus! Our server was friendly, attentive, and ensured we were well taken care of the entire night. Their food & drinks here are so great, and we family-style shared everything. The Bacon Wrapped Dates ($10) was sweet, savory, and crispy, just like you'd expect. The Bruschetta ($10) was well-seasoned but a little too on the burnt-side for me but my boyfriend liked it so :) The Caesar Salad ($12) was a classic one - no complaints here and for $12, it was a great price for the amount. The Shrimp Tacos ($12) and Short Rib Tacos ($12) tasted great as well, but I do wish both of them had more sauce. The Crawfish Mac & Cheese ($22) was cheesy, creamy, and loaded with crawfish - definitely one of my highlights! The New York Steak ($39) was cooked medium-rare, and I just wish I had more room in my tummy to enjoy it more. As for drinks, they have got something for everyone here. I don't drink alcohol, and I was so happy to know they had a Hibiscus Cooler mocktail, which our server recommended. It's a delicious and refreshing mocktail that I LOVED! Yes, all caps, LOVED! It had pineapple, lime, and ginger, and hibiscus syrup - all my fave flavors in one drink. My group also loved their beers and it's always a win-win when a place naisl both cocktails and mocktails. The energy here is chill but lively, making it a great spot for celebrations. I saw there were other party groups as well. Plus, their Happy Hour is Mon-Fri from 11 AM to 6 PM and definitely worth checking out for $6 well spirits, $1 off beer & wine, and $7-10 food specials. The State in Monrovia is definitely worth a another visit! read more
