50 Best American Restaurants near Bell Gardens

“Muy bueno todo buen servicio“

“Fosters Freeze’s, Large soft serve,Vanilla ice cream cones, dipped in chocolate syrup, are good and messy. They made me a triple cheeseburger back in the early 70’s way before Burger King or In-n- out ever had them.“

“I must say, this place shocked me. It was so good. I ordered a cheeseburger with extra cheese. My first bite was delicious. There was lots of flavor and seasoning on the meat. The cheese was actually melted and gooey. A lot of places don't wait for the cheese to melt and I get a lot of cheeseburgers with cold cheese on them. I was so happy that there was thick tomato! There was generous, crunchy lettuce, onion and pickles. The burger was thick and cost $6 with change. I thought it was so much better than Jim's. Jim's burgers are more bland, not thick, cold cheese and cost over $8. I thought it was much better than Astro burger in Montebello. Astro gave me a less seasoned burger with cold cheese. I really like Doublz and I thought Jolly was better. They season the meat more and it's a noticeable difference. Thanks owner!! I hope they stay consistent!“

“The best chili fries in Cali!!!!“

“Came here for my lunch break today & was seated right away. Surprisingly, it wasn't super packed considering that it was lunch hours. We ordered French toast & Belgian waffles with the breakfast platter (eggs, bacon, & hash browns). Our server was very attentive. She took our order right away & the food came shortly after. Love her attentiveness! She brought water refills without us even asking for one. I've been here on multiple occasions and overall, I'd say I've had a positive experience each time. Definitely a great spot to come to for breakfast/lunch if you're craving for traditional American food. This is a family friendly establishment, so there will be times where you'll hear screaming children when you're just trying to enjoy your meal, lol.“

“It's my first time at this location, the waiter, Aaron Garza, was fantastically friendly, he made us feel welcome in this place, the waitresses should take their example of customer service. The food was incredible, the atmosphere very pleasant. I will be back and hope Aaron is our waiter again, my family and I are happy with his service“

“Amazing food!!! Service was great. Gotta have the Pork shank and Pop Corn situation!!!“

“The staff is great and friendly. The food is delicious!“

“The chicken and the customer service are so good, I was getting cucked by one of the employees and I made sure to thank him before I left. Will be coming back ?“

“This is what spontaneous LA dining is about. Just walked by hungry. Super cute. You can be sat with full service or you can order with a number and find a lil spot to eat with a number. Both ways are full menu. Everything was tasty and out quick.“

“Parking was terrible, but the food was tasty!“

“I was impressed with this place! A great find indeed. Outstanding meal here. The staff does an amazing job of describing anything on the menu and the ambiance is very cool. Can't wait to come back!“

“Went to have dinner with the family at the Wilmington location. The waitress Natalia was very nice and helpful. The menus has many options of food. Which is good and not so pricey. Keep up the good work!.“

“Had the Seattle dog and LA dog and they didn’t disappoint whatsoever! The portion size is phenomenal and the prices are ridiculously affordable and worth it! The taste of each dog was amazing and the flavors popped in each one! They’re made to order as well, so they’re fresh and hot! I had to come back the next day and bring my family! 100/10 recommend!“

“Great food, service and beautiful restaurant“

“Every morsel of every bite was an explosion of delectable goodness that made you close your eyes to try to savor and discover the origins of every single ingredient.“

“For context, my family went here for a Sunday lunch. Menu can be scanned via QR code which is handy. Parking can be tough, that is a big issue we faced when we arrived. We had to park in the side street of LA. About 12-15 tables inside, and more seating outside. Definitely can be packed on some days.Food is 3/5 stars, I highly recommend the coconut adobo, it’s a perfect mixture of adobo and ginataan, never really thought of that combo. Rice comes in 3 scoops. We didn’t like that the ribs and the tri-tip were not warm enough, it felt like they microwaved it and was not fresh from the grill? The sauces they have carried the flavor. Felt scammed out of the cornbread bibingka, try it out, but we won’t be buying it again too overpriced, nothing too special.Service is 5/5, the servers were friendly and gave us options, the owners were present acting as the servers and explained to us about the history of Park’s Finest and context about the food. It was our first time there.Atmosphere 4/5, it is too moody and dark, can use a bit more lighting. Maybe a light bulb on top of the table? ? cool modern design however, maybe its darker during the daytime. The wash room is clean and has all amenities.Overall 4/5, would come again but not cravings. They have Wednesday, Thursday-Friday deals, definitely check those out.Bill came out to $80+“

“My boyfriend and I really enjoyed this experience! It was a great view of the track and service was great. Food took some time to get out but it was a great 4/5. We had the pork chop and 917 burger which were excellent. The Pinot Grigio and old fashioned was 4/5. They have a full bar and made a great whiskey sour with egg white foam. Overall a great experience and great place to bring that special someone who loves cars. You're able to Ventura and observe several Porsche's. I Would definitely come back for lunch!“

“Always a nice experience at Yangban. Nice ambiance, especially upstairs. Tasty cocktails (I like the Grape one) and interesting food. Chicken wings are amazing, and the cheesecake desert was decadent. Portions aren't large for the pricing, though, so come either don't come starving, or be ready to spend.“

“I was in LA a couple of weeks ago on business and found this spot the day before leaving and that's my biggest regret. Wish we'd found it the first day we we're there I'd have been eating there everyday. The food and atmosphere are excellent and a live DJ playing music we all grew up on (can you dig it ✊?). The purple (grape) kool-aid was a blast from the past fo so.“

“Magnífico lugar para comer!! Excelente servicio Jessica, Jessenia y todos los que trabajan son grandiosos.“

“Edited for recent visit on 2/7/24:Finally got to try the malai pasta. It did not disappoint in flavor and was fantastic. I think adding some meatballs would further elevate this dish with some protein. Lamb sliders were also super tasty. The pizza was fine but was made better by dipping it in the malai pasta sauce. The staff were gracious and helpful. Significantly improved from my previous visit. Would come back.Malai pasta: 4.5/5Lamb sliders: 4.5Green tikka pizza: 3.5Old review:I’ll admit we didn’t have the pasta. Between the pizza, wings, and something else we had we left feeling pretty underwhelmed. We asked a couple next to us about their wings which were different than ours and their response was a similar “meh”.Indian food and Italian food should be full of flavors, this fusion of flavors seemed to be meant for the palate of someone who had never had any ethnic food. I appreciate the attempt, but I felt it was poorly executed. I might give them a try again as it has been awhile.“

“Stopped by for breakfast and Martha (waitress) was very attentive and courteous with me. Her attitude was friendly and with a smile on her face. Definitely will return again.“

“The service is great, food and Lizette or server was amazing. We love it.“

“1st Tryout After Seeing Rave Reviews. They Serve St Menu Only. Tae (A Bridge Over Paddy & Fields) / Yang (A Lotus Flower In The Mud) / Saeng (Life Begins) / Dae (Sometimes Nomadic) / Wang (Remain In Between) / Wang (Remain In Between) / Byung (Finally Realize) / Jeol (Wait For Another w Doubt). Beef Short Ribs Stand Out. Overall , It Was A Very Good Food & Enjoyable Experience.“

“I just hurt myself trying to finish the GF Detroit style... damn good pizza. I'm a "sauce man" and I would put there red sauce over pasta and bon appetit it; no questions asked. Great mozzarella (with that authentic salty milkiness) and quality toppings. If you're gluten free like me, this is the best pizza in LA hands down. Prior to my GF life, pizza was my favorite food group and I've eaten it all over. You can always tell a good pie by the components. There is a quality and style that goes into the pizza here. Canned sauce is disgusting and evident during the first bite at other shops. Once again, the sauce is great here. Park near Astro and walk over as that lot is not fun to try and get into or out of. I will be back“

“The food is awesome. My favorite place!♥️“

“The workers are great. However they try to push you in and out. Can’t even enjoy a conversation with the fam because they check in endlessly and give you the check halfway thru the meal. But this is a dennys standard at any dennys I’ve been to.“

“The outdoor patio is a perfect setting for friends to have dinner. Great drink, delicious food, and nice service. Our waiter forgot our second round of drinks. She finally brought them after we asked about them. It is such an enjoyable spot that we were not upset.“

“Great food the best place in Pico Rivera.“

“Great food and a great bartender“

“Mimi's Cafe was amazing!!! I ordered huevos rancheros & my husband ordered Santa Fe omelet and nothing was left on the plate. Our waiter TONY gave the best customer service and was very friendly he made our experience at Mimi's Cafe worth every minute. The chef is fantastic and you can taste the love through our food. Thank you Mimi's Cafe!“

“The food was delicious and it's hard to beat a rooftop setting. Appreciate that the restaurant emailed early in the day to advise we bring warm clothes—it was hot early but cooked down considerably and its rooftop location meant we did indeed end up using our jackets. The salumi dish was underwhelming, but everything else was delicious, especially the ceviche, the carrots and hummus, and the fried chicken. Cocktails were creative and tasty. Didn't seems dedicated children's menu but my daughter got the orchietta and cheese and it was great. They seemed understaffed so service was slow but we'd go back.“

“Delicious! Really interesting and tasty food.“

“We went for dinner before a concert without reservations and were able to dine at the bar. The bartender was very friendly and knowledgeable. The service was good and friendly, the cocktails were very good. The menu is very creative—my wife selected the striped bass with cannellini beans and I ordered the red beet carnaroli risotto. Both were very good. We also enjoyed the berry shortcake and rice pudding.“

“Ghost Sando Shop Came to grab a bite with my boyfriend, walked around the grand central market and seen this sandwich shop. The menu instantly grabbed our attention and I'm glad it did! I got the melrose sandwich my boyfriend got the howdy sandwich and instantly fell in love! They are both great tasting & the service was quick! We got the L size which costed about $40 for two sandwiches and two drinks. Overall a great experience and I will be coming again for that howdy sandwich!“

“OMG, the food here is sooooooo good! We had the oxtail plate, fried chicken plate and some jambalaya. Each serving was so generous, of course we took leftovers home. So good we returned the next day!“

“An exquisite culinary adventure! The restaurant's diverse menu tantalizes taste buds with flavorful dishes. Impeccable service complements the cozy ambiance, creating a memorable dining experience. A must-visit for food enthusiasts!“

“I wanted to eat a good burger and fries so I went with my sister and we had a great luncheon. I ordered the burger special with cheddar cheese avocado grilled onions pickle with fries and black tea omg now I am gonna take a nap..I did order the chocolate chocolate cake to go..yummy delicious lunch“

“Food is delicious and staff are very friendly“

“First time coming here, good food and great service. My mom could be a bit of a Karen but the cashier was so nice, patient and answered all my moms questions. I didn't get his name but he was the cashier with black glasses. The food was very good and he make great recommendations. 10/10 experience The pictures look a bit of a mess but that's cause we tore it up fast. The chicken was crispy and juicy, a lot of fast food places have fatty chicken, not this place. Fries are bomb like mc Donald's minus the grease“

“This Bellflower location is by far the best one I have visited in years. Better than Culver City, South Bay, and Los Angeles locations. The salad bar was fresh and well stocked. Our server Rosby was amazing! Sry if I messed up the name! The supervisor Aileen was also great we caught her taking a photo for a group so everyone could be in the photo. Our food was served within 10 min and the steaks were cooked as ordered not tough and well done. Overall the service and food was 100!! My family will def return.“

“the food is great but I think the people make the place!!!!“

“Im super picky when it comes to Mexican food and let me tell you this place really does not disappoint. We waited a while for the food but you have to keep in mind that good food takes time and energy to make. I ordered the chilaquiles con mole and a side of papas, the chilaquiles were so delicious. The mole tastes amazing it’s not too sweet and has no bitter notes. Super filling. The papas are amazing they’re so crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. Will def be coming back, I personally really appreciate the ambiance in there it reminds me of eating in a home or in my dads down in MX. The people here really value and love food.“

“Great sandwiches. Fresh ingredients.“

“The burger reminds me home, Philippines..It reminds me of Tropical Hut Hamburger!“
