The place is part of a mall and I have to say how surprised I was at how bad the parking is at this place. On a Sunday afternoon, there was pretty much zero parking and the lots are pretty big.

My husband has been wanting to try Gus's Barbecue and, when finally presented with the opportunity,…read morewe only had one regret after our meal; not visiting sooner. We placed a large takeout order and everything from the service to all of our food was amazing. Some of my favorite items we ordered included the - Cast Iron Cornbread - Ribs and Two Meat Combo - Gus's Famous Burger The cornbread was divine, especially with that honey butter . Definitely a solid appetizer, but complemented the main dishes perfectly. The meats were prepared well; tender and flavorful. The bbq sauces paired well and merely elevated each of the meats. Gus's Famous Burger was one of my favorite burgers I've had recently. Ordered the potato salad as my side and couldn't have been more satisfied. I'd recommend any of these items if you're on the fence. I think it's important to review that we had all of this as a takeout order, so I can only imagine how much more delicious this would be if we dined in and ate everything right away. Gus's Barbecue is definitely going to be a repeat visit for us. There's so much more we want to try off of their menu. Can't wait to come back soon and dine in!

The staff told us Tuesdays are usually busy, but because of Memorial Day weekend, most of their rush came earlier in the weekend, so tonight was nice, chill, and relaxed. Love the huge open windows and bar set up. We ordered the brisket, Sy Louis pork ribs, chicken wings, blue masa cornbread, mac & cheese, and finished dinner with the apple cheddar pie. Everything was absolutely delicious. The brisket was tender, smoky, and practically melted in your mouth. The chicken wings were crispy and perfectly seasoned. The ribs were smoky with just the right touch of sweetness. But the real standout for me was the blue masa cornbread -- absolutely incredible. And the apple cheddar pie was the perfect ending to dinner. The balance of sweet and savory flavors paired so beautifully together. 10/10 -- we'll definitely be back again!

I am not usually the biggest fan of bbq(a lot of bbq sauces aren't it for me)... but I LOVE Jake's, the secret is in the sauce!! It's sweet and tangy in the perfect way and ends up with a smoky flavor from when they cook it as well. I looooove the huge beef ribs here, and the chicken is pretty good too. I've also tried the baby back ribs, which my family loves but I'm more of a beef kinda gal. Haven't tried much else on the menu because I just love the beef ribs so much tbh. The fries and salad are good, some other sides kinda feel like an afterthought, but the sides aren't the highlight here. I like the "roadside" nostalgic vibe inside, and the staff are nice. Some of the staff have been there for a long time and know a lot of the customers. Overall, this is my favorite restaurant in the neighborhood, and when Monrovia comes up in conversation, I always mention Jake's :)

This our first time at Jake's Roadhouse in the city of Monrovia on a Saturday,we throught will be a busy night at the restaurant it wasn't there's were customers enjoy this meal then we ask the waiter for a table he looks around the restaurant and found a table for us. We sat down then we look at the menu to see what to order everybody order on their own but my wife and I order BBQ combo it's come with a half a chicken,Tri Tip,two BBQ pork ribs,two BBQ beef ribs and two sides,we decided pick potato salad and mac n cheese to our meal. The atmosphere at Jake's Roadhouse is relaxing and a feeling see classic interior sign from the past that you can remember those doesn't exist anymore but enjoy walking to back in time. The waiter but out meal our BBQ combo meal to our table it looks scrumptious good. I cut a piece of the bbq chicken it was juicy,and tender and getting that smoke flavor in the chicken. And a bite of the Tri Tip it was tender and cover bbq sauce it good but it little bit too much of the bbq sauce but I enjoy it. The bbq pork ribs were very meaty they so good then bbq beef ribs they were meaty too with good flavor. The potato salad were very good full of flavors in the potato salad and mac n cheese was amazing cheesy good that I really enjoy. Meal come two muffins they very good. Everybody including ourselves enjoy the meal we were very happy and next try different items.

I ordered on my phone and the food came out pretty quick! They also had an appetizer bar which was rly nice. There was a variety of apps such as mapo tofu, seaweed, cripsy chips, and desserts such a fruit and jelly. Idk where they bought their oranges but it was SO SWEET I literally ate all that was left at the bar lol. Skewers Tofu wrapped enoki mushroom 10/10! Super flavorful and delicious. The tofu skin was undercooked like how other skewer places have it. Beef 8/10: typical beef skewers that had good labor too Chicken skin 7/10: not my fave since it was a bit too crispy for me but it may be someone else's cup of tea! Beef tongue 8/10: small amount given but it was the perfect chew. I would def order this again! Fried rice 8.5/10: this rly helped balance all the flavors of the skewers. I was surprised that it wasn't so bland. I would def order this again if I came back for a palate cleanse. Cheese corn 9/10: super creamy, sweet and delicious. Def satisfied my cravings Overall this place may be my new go to skewer place!

Not sure why, there are a number of locations around, just was Mormon my mind. Glad I have gotten back to them. Their food is great, chicken, tri-tip, sides, pasta, pizza etc. everything is great. I really also love their carrot cake, some of the best around. They have some great promos usually, as of this review 4/4/26, they have their stimulus package for 4, Family meal for 4, lunch specials and a great $13 promo that you get a main, a side, breadstick and a desert. The staff is nice at all the locations I have been to, helpful, friendly, welcoming, etc. This location has a ton of seating inside as well as a really nice outdoor patio. Parking lot is big and is connected to a shopping center, so tons of parking. Stonefire also is great to the community, they give students a 15% discount and they give a whopping 50% discount to Military, great discount and great that they do that. Check out this location or any of their locations to get some great BBQ. Enjoy!

I had the bulgogi, hamburger, and sweet & spicy sliders and they were all good. The double bacon cheese burger was also good and very filling. The meat blend they use is a higher quality and fat content. The fries are a light Cajun blend and were still crispy even after light travel The fish and chips are a hidden sleeper. The portion might be a bit small, but the fish was moist, flaky, and well seasoned. And the fry was done perfectly. If you order take out, open the box immediately otherwise the fries will steam up and become soft. The wings were a miss. The sauce tasted fine and wasn't too spicy. But the wings were a bit dry
