“Endroit hyper typique ! Bonne musique, cocktails d’un excellent niveau et à un prix tout à fait honnête, tous les classiques sont dispo et le barman tient la corde niveau cordes vocales !! Excellente carte de dîner ! Nous n’avons pas testé le grill … seul regret de la soirée. Il faut qu’on y retourne, absolument”
“Pssing through. Hilton Hotel in Montebello said tgey had the best pizza around. Very true. Loved the New York.”
Restaurants by Cuisine
“I happened to pass by a small bistro and went in to order a takeout set meal. They offer several different sets; the prices are very reasonable, and the food tastes great.”
“Excellent service. Great beer. Great food. I Love the ambiance.”
“First time every eating in a restaurant on a styrafoam plate, but it didn't take away from my meal. Tried out their noodles with beef and I found it to be quite tasty with the sauce. Small simple little place, tempted to return for their breakfast and evening specials”
Restaurants with Delivery
“We had a wonderful family birthday dinner at Duck House! The 3-course Beijing duck was absolutely fantastic, and the combination fried rice and crab soup were delicious too.
Thanks to Catherine and the friendly, attentive staff. The inside dining area had such a warm and cozy atmosphere, which made our celebration even more special.
Highly recommend making a reservation ahead of time for ordering Beijing Duck. We’ll definitely be back!”
“If you want authentic Burmese Food, go there. Not pricy, yummy food and warmly welcoming environment.
I really wanted Shan noodle with Tofu but mostly Burmese Restaurant only offered Shan Noodle, but this one has it. So I ordered Shan Tofu Noodle and it’s so fresh. Monhikha is good but texture is thick.
The place is hard to find as it’s really small inside. Waiting time for food is so long, for me, I waited for about 20 25 mins to get my food after already ordering. The lunch special deal is good one.”
“Honestly customer service 100% great. But the food was so bad I will never come here. This location needs to learn from Alhambra as far as food. And Alhambra needs to learn from this location about great customer service. UPDATE I WAS HERE RECENTLY AND EVERYTHING HAS BEEN FIXED WHAT A ICONIC LOS ANGELES CA OPTION THAT PEOPLE TAKE FOR GRANTED.”
“The food was good, but I wasn’t comfortable with the way the server handled the bowls and plates. I saw hisi hands touch the money, computer surface, and the dirty table. Wearing gloves made me uncomfortable, especially when the server’s fingers touched the inside of the bowl. Other than that, the food was great.”
“Jin Hai / Beijing Pie House has gotten better over the years. The lamb and leeek meat pies arrived nice and crispy with ample soup inside. The lamb flavor was subtle and clean with a satisfying smattering of yellow leek.
The three ingredient dumplings (leek, pork, shrimp) were supple and balanced. The thick looking wrappers were deceptively supple with a bit of bite and flavor of the fillings sang a song of freshness.
Glad we came back and will put this back in our rotation.”
“I enjoyed this place a lot. It was a little bit hard to find at first, as it is located above the supermarket. The server was very friendly, helping me to find a good vegetarian option. The cold sesame noodles were tasty and refreshing, and the price is not bad ($8.99). The dining area is spacious and comfortable.”
“Best sushi in LA! Everything melted in your mouth! The fish is fresh, the price is affordable, and the service is great! It looks like a hole in the wall - but wow :)) We eat there once a week and love it! Drove all the way from Studio City to have dinner there - 2 hours each way in traffic - so that's obviously what it says :)) Haha Just love it!”
Outdoor Dining
“Pastry was dry, but the curry filling was yummy with a touch of spicy. Fan Tuan (purple rice) was amazing, total hit with the husband and kiddos. My husband doesn't care for pickled veggies, but he stated it actually works really well in the roll with all the other ingredients. My kids call it Chinese kimbap and it was an amazing, easy, quick and clean lunch for the kiddos at the airport. Definitely coming back to try other items on their menu. Front lady was nice and made funny jokes and smart remarks. Lol”

“Food was delicious and the service was excellent. Not too busy for lunch. Servings were sizeable perfect for sharing . Free Desert is served after the meal. No my cup of tea but my mates thoroughly enjoyed it. The restaurant is somewhat dated but it was clean throughout. Don't pass by this place of you enjoy Thai food 🫠😊”
“This Sunright location has been a solid spot in my boba rotation for years. It's quite a small shop with no seating, just a place to order and go. They have two self ordering kiosks at the back which is great especially when it's busy. However, I'd always prefer to order online anyways to remove any wait time at all.
Interior is pretty clean and staff is pretty quick, parking is plentiful, street parking and parking lot in the back.
My go to drinks here is always the oreo brulee and the white peach milk teas. Both are very refreshing and always delciious regardless of weather. It can get a bit sweat for the oreo brulee but a sugar adjustment does the trick. I like that their cups are one of the more higher quality feel than other shops. Simple design yet modern and classic at the same time. The bottom is sturdy but has a round outer layer, very unique as other shops don't have that style.
Overall, great drinks, extensive menu, and options for all kinds of tea lovers. They have other locations as well but this location is one that's been around for a long time, very consistent for the most part. Keep a look out for events they do on social media and also recommend downloading the Toast app to collect points.”
“This local place hidden inside the business buildings of Monterey Park is a great, local find. Simple, yet cute decorations with positive affirmations posted everywhere—even the restroom. A tasty, modest menu, that has some Mexican and Hawaiian flavors. We went for breakfast and ordered the Rice Plates: Spam or Portuguese Sausage, Standard Breakfast Burrito, and Make-Your-Own omelette. Solid and filling food. BUT, the most alluring part is the family-owned business. A true, local find owned by a daughter with her mother working and helping out. A small but hard-working staff from the cook to the back kitchen. So friendly, warm and kind. A place to visit and support for all Monterey Park residents.”
“Excellent bento dinners. Very generous servings and taste was excellent. Great to take into Dodger stadium!”
“They were not joking when they called this comfort food. I was sick, and it was raining, so I wanted something warm and hearty. This place seemed like the obvious choice, and far exceeded my expectations. Food came out fast and blistering hot, but still perfect temperature to eat right away. It was somehow nostalgic, even though it was my first time trying this dish. The tofu was extremely soft, but held its shape well, and very flavorful from absorbing the liquid. It really felt like it cured by illness.
Portion size was also very generous, which is always important. The menu was also pretty varied, I could imagine coming back multiple times and trying something new each time.”

“Go here and go here soon. This place is great. Super fresh everything. Big coolers on one wall where you select meat and veg on trays and skewers. The assortment is broad. I was fortunate to have gone with friends from China, so they guided my choices. You can't go wrong with the basics here, though. Friendly service and very clean. Open late!”
“I was looking for somewhere to meet up with a colleague for lunch and CP came highly recommended. My colleague did the ordering. I found the taste and selection of dim sum to be one of the highlights. CP does get noisy. Service is excellent. Restaurant comps underground parking.”
“Quick, polite service and carts move around. Dim sum 4 plus on weekends. Eight steamers came to 50 plus tax and tip. Servers get for you what’s not in the carts yet if it’s in the kitchen. 2/person tea charge. Lobsters for 16.99 are very small though and 29.99 crab deal also not big. Duck special is alright but is worth two stamps. Place is packed on Sunday and waited about five minutes for a table.”
“Went here yesterday and had a pretty good experience.The BBQ tasted really good and the meat was flavorful.Service was nice and the food came out fresh.The atmosphere was okay, could be a little better,but overall I enjoyed it and would come back again.You guys must try their signature big grilled oysters with garlic,super flavorful and definitely one of the best things on the menu.”

“Absolutely lovely seafood boil place. Reminds me of boiling crab but everything is delicious with its Cajun seasoning and such. Definitely recommend it if you wanna eat something messy. They have deals for 2,3, and 4 person groups that are quite delectable and well priced. Just be wary that if you bring your significant other. They will likely see you drenched kn sweat unless you choose the mild option 😉 😄”

“McDonald's is one of the better McDonald’s locations I have visited in the area. The restaurant was recently renovated, and the new design makes the place look much cleaner, brighter, and more modern. The updated seating area is comfortable, and the overall atmosphere feels more welcoming compared to older McDonald’s locations.
One thing I notice every time I come here is how many students visit this location. Since it is close to schools and residential areas, many students come here after class to eat, study, meet friends, or simply relax. During the afternoons and evenings, the restaurant often feels lively and energetic, but it is still usually well maintained and organized.
The service is also pretty efficient. Even during busy hours, the staff works quickly and the wait time is normally reasonable. The self-order kiosks are convenient and help make the ordering process easier. Another big advantage is the parking. There are usually enough parking spaces available, which makes visiting this location much more convenient than some other busy restaurants nearby.
Overall, this McDonald’s has improved a lot after the renovation. The clean environment, convenient location, and active atmosphere make it a great place for a quick meal or a casual hangout spot for students and local residents.”
“This is by far the most delicious Cantonese restaurant. Too bad they close the temple city branch. I have to drive here to have their lunch special. Menu off the lunch special are also amazing and delicious. It’s truly a gem. Every dish taste amazing. Highly recommended ❤❤❤❤”
“The food and services are excellent. We eat here every time we visit!”
“Best BBQ I’ve ever had. Owner is nice & in fact is my friend’s mom. Her whole family owns the place & the BBQ tastes like heaven. My friend’s aunt is the cook & the BBQ was so good when I tried it. Thank you to Kexin’s family for giving us free BBQ yesterday. :) Next time, we will dine in your restaurant.”

“Premier Dessert Art is a low-key, casual shop, which serves delicious, unique, and creative desserts.
It is located in the middle of a row of shops and popular restaurants, including Mama Lu’s Dumplings and Chubby Cattle.
Free parking is available in the parking lot behind the shops and restaurants or on the street close by. Space is limited. You should probably come before or after dinner in order to avoid the crowds.
The dine-in area in the shop is not too big. There are mostly small tables for 2 people. But there are larger tables for 4-6 people in the front of the shop.
To place a dine-in order, you need to scan the QR on the little sign (with table number) on each table.
A server will bring out your dessert order to your table when the order is ready in about 15 min. The wait time may be more or less depending on how busy the shop is.
After you’re done eating, you pay your bill at the cashier register in the middle of the shop. Be sure to include a tip to show your appreciation for the nice service.
If you’re looking for a casual, quiet place to eat yummy desserts and chat with friends after dinner, you should definitely check out Premier Dessert Art! =)”

“We had a good experience dining here for breakfast after weeks of craving Hong Kong style milk tea and french toast. Super glad to have tried this place out! Menu is very budget friendly, the portions are huge and the customer service is superb. Will definitely come back to this place.”
“Fantastic HK noodle house in the heart of Monterey Park. The slow braised beef is fantastic, the noodles are supposedly flown in from Hong Kong, the wontons are fresh (but a little salty for my taste), the soup base is on point. Sort of a hole in the wall kinda feel decor, owner speaks English Mandarin and Cantonese. Aside from the some what lack of parking situation (street parking only), there's really nothing to dislike. Price is fair too. Would come again and explore more of the menu.”
“It was my first time coming here yesterday 9/19/26. I had the combo plate with teriyaki chicken and short ribs. Those where one of the most delicious short ribs I've ever had. They had a lot of meat, and they where very flavorful. The chicken was also delicious, and the mac salad that comes with it. I really enjoyed it.”
“And they were having a promotion where if I leave a review, I get a free drink so I’m grateful for that. The tea was good. There was only a little bit of miscommunication with customizing a drink and they make you do the review before they give you the drink so other than that I will definitely come back.”
“If you’re looking for authentic China Tianjin-style Chinese food in Los Angeles, this place is an absolute gem.
Everything we ordered was incredibly fresh and tasted just like the breakfast and street food you would find in Tianjin. The pork and green onion steamed buns were outstanding—soft, fluffy dough with juicy, flavorful filling. At $13 for 8 large buns, the value is amazing.
The savory tofu pudding (doufunao) was rich and comforting, the jianbing (Chinese crepe) was made fresh with the perfect crispy texture, and the red bean pastry was delicious without being overly sweet. We also tried the beef tendon dish, which was tender, well-seasoned, and full of flavor.
What impressed me most was how authentic everything tasted. Nothing felt watered down or overly Americanized. Every dish reminded me of the flavors I grew up with in northern China.
Before driving back to the Bay Area, we even bought fresh pork & green onion buns, chive buns, and seafood buns to take home because they were just that good.
Highly recommended for anyone craving genuine Tianjin style cuisine. We’ll definitely be back the next time we’re in Los Angeles!
As someone who has eaten Tianjin food for many years, I truly appreciate the care and authenticity that goes into every dish. It’s not easy to find this level of quality in the U.S. Thank you for bringing a real taste of Tianjin to Los Angeles. We can’t wait to come back!”

“Wow! What a Feast you can have here at Capital Seafood.
One of the OG Chinese Banquet Restaurants in Monterey Park.
Still going strong after all these years.”
“Really excellent place for Chinese style skewers and some Korean elements. We got so many skewers and they were all delicious! We even got molten soup which is so warm and delicious.
I usually dislike Chinese style skewers places in US bc the risk and reward are not good (aka cost too much for tiny ounce of meat) but this place met my expectations and might be better than most places in China that I had.
High quality place if you can check it out.”

“Wow! Meat pies from heaven in a mini- mall off N Garfield Avenue. Everything here is great. Not a sit down place as such, since it's really small and they only have a few tables, but I'm sure you could eat in if you wanted to (they have a short menu) - but it's not really a restaurant atmosphere - more of a small hole in the wall family run takeout, with Grandpa making dumplings by hand at a table when I was there. There seems to be very little English spoken here. Very delicious and authentic - I'll be back!”
“This is by far the most delicious Cantonese restaurant. Too bad they close the temple city branch. I have to drive here to have their lunch special. Menu off the lunch special are also amazing and delicious. It’s truly a gem. Every dish taste amazing. Highly recommended ❤❤❤❤”
“Had their Tiramisu at a birthday not expecting much, but ohhhhh lawd, lemme tell you! It was genuinely one of the best Asian-style Tiramisus I’ve ever had. The cream cheese flavor really shined through and the cake itself was great. Everyone loved it and had seconds despite getting so full from dinner.”

“Place specialize in hand pulled noodles and home made dumplings. Very authentic. Recommend the lamb noodles. Just visited again. As delicious as ever. I would love the owners to replace the plasticware with ceramic again. Always weird to eat out plasticware at a restaurant.”
“Walked in and ordered at the counter! We sat ourselves. They will bring the food out to your table.
All pizzas come with ONE topping and any additional are what the prices are shown in the menu. Their pizza is pretty thick! It’s not thin crust but still very tasty! Their breading is soft and not chewy/doughy so that’s a plus!
We got the 16” - sausage - pizza - a tiny bit of spice on the pizza! They gave plates + cheese/chili pepper on the side. We could’ve gone a size down! We ate half the pizza only!
Parking: it was easy since I came around 11:30 on a weekday.
Seating: 2 big tables and a few small tables. A lot of take outs!
price: it’s on the higher end but I would come back as it was filling and delicious!”

“Not every meal has to be at the trendiest restaurant.
Sometimes all you need is a classic Hong Kong cafe, a table full of comfort food, and a game playing in the background.
We stopped by JJ Hong Kong Cafe in Monterey Park and tried their Curry Combination Rice, Beef Brisket Lo Mein, Baked Pork Chop Macaroni, Deep Fried Cornish Hen, Fried Chili Turnip Patties, and French Toast.
The French Toast with ice cream was easily one of the most memorable dishes on the table. Crispy on the outside, soft on the inside, and perfect for sharing.
The atmosphere felt old-school and casual — the kind of neighborhood spot where people come for a relaxed meal, late-night cravings, or to catch a game with friends.

“I just came across this place by chance and got interested in ‘rice noodles’ and never had any dish from Guilin before. I was pleasantly surprised to find a gems of cuisine! The owners are super-friendly and especially generous condiment booth much more so than any restaurants I’d seen. Plus the price is super economical. Because of such pleasant personalities and exceptional services of the owner couple, it makes the ambiance so unique and very cozy to dine in. Not to mention the taste of the dish is great! I love the chewy round rice noodles that seems to be hand-made. It reminds me of simple noodles made laboriously I encountered in a remote village in Laos where they called it ‘Khao Pun’ made fro slightly fermented rice that was pounded, steam and pounded again so the texture is soft but chewy. It came in delicious meat sauce. I got pork belly and beef ribs. I was surprised that beef ribs were debone making it very pleasant to eat. This place is a rare find and I’ll be back to try other dishes again”
“Supports a small local business that has been serving the local community for decades!
Their milk tea has really improved since my previous visit, years ago.
Still the best value tea place, they now have an XL size!!!
Good milk tea.
Very competitive pricing.
They have actual food now, and at a decent price!
They have drink deals too!!!
Their dining area has drastically shrunk.
Limited seating quantity.
Average seat quality.
Overall:
A decent place I can recommend.
My XL drink was $6 + tax :)”
“Its been a long time since I've felt like giving a generous tip. Its hard to find/see someone paying attention to his surroundings, clear communicator and making things happen for everyone. I felt bad for the tables that didnt have his service. Michael, was and over the top with waitering and his hospitality. He went the extra mile making sure my grandma and I had a great dining experience. Thank you Michael.”
“The owner of this location and the staff provide the freshest desserts and the highest level of professional customer service. Bonnie, the owner, is so personable and really wants to provide you with the best experience. Not only are these puffs the best in town, but rest assure your trip to Beard Papa's is worth your time.”
“The Tea or Not Tea is the question. Let’s dine into this new tea adventure.
The Tea is a popular local tea shot in Monterey. They are located in a shopping plaza on Atlantic avenue. Their tea drinks are compendious. Staff were competent. It was my first time here and was impressed with their tea drinks. I had an Avocado smash smoothie and Mango pomelo sago. Both were very good at an affordable price. This tea shop is welcoming and relaxing.
Overall, I enjoyed their drinks. I recommend it.”
“Very good Banh Mi. Ingredients and bread taste very fresh and portions are generous. As people have noted, the service is a bit on the slow side for made to order items but is definitely deserving of the five star review despite this (this restaurant is way over an aggragate 4.3 rating). Having lived in Paris the texture and consistency of the bread is on par but there is the extra 9/10 that is missing in the flavor that is present in baked items from France. A place I certainly recommend!”
“I was looking for somewhere to meet up with a colleague for lunch and CP came highly recommended. My colleague did the ordering. I found the taste and selection of dim sum to be one of the highlights. CP does get noisy. Service is excellent. Restaurant comps underground parking.”
“Love the fried oysters. Good flavor and they use the big juicy ones! It’s so good with lemon. Fried octopus is also great. Not dry. Great flavor. Nice dipping sauce. Takoyaki is nicely put together. Didn’t fall apart when I pick it up.
First come first serve. No reservation. They will only seat you when the whole party is there. Parking lot at front and rear. Clean dining area. The staff are friendly and helpful. We came for small bites only. I wish I have a bigger stomach.”

And Alhambra needs to learn from this location about great customer service.

“First time using the drive-thru at this location, and I just have to shoutout Erwin! He handled my somewhat complicated order with a great attitude. He was attentive, respectful and genuinely friendly the whole time. Service like this is rare these days (and I say that as someone who works in CX in the corporate world). He absolutely deserves a raise or promotion, and all the recognition.”
“The line moved quickly, the staff was friendly and welcoming, and the service was efficient without feeling rushed. Everything looked fresh, the portions were generous, and the food was delicious. I especially appreciated how neatly everything was prepared—it was easy to eat and tasted great from the first bite to the last. The restaurant was clean, and the overall experience was excellent. I’ll definitely be coming back!”

“Diosa de los Moles has such a fantastic vibe! The atmosphere is wonderfully welcoming, and the service was warm and attentive throughout our entire meal. The presentation of each dish was beautiful—you can tell a lot of care goes into plating everything. Taste-wise, the food was very yummy overall, though a couple of the dishes could have used just a bit more bold flavor to really pop. That said, everything was still delicious, and with such a great ambiance and menu, I will definitely be back to try more items!”
“A fusion of Vietnamese and Thai cuisine for a vegetarian diet. There is no meat here though the imitation of meat dishes are delicious, full of texture and flavor. No experience curation, but the staff will get you what you need. Good pricing and huge portions. Plenty of free parking. Card accepted, but cash is preferred.”
“The uncaffeinated toasted grain milk tea was phenomenal. Roasted flavor that’s not too deep and pairs well with nunumochi.
I was a bit shocked that the mochi wasn’t solid gel-like but the manager kindly explained that they don’t use preservatives so it’s more of a hybrid between liquid and gel. Whatever it is, I love it. I forgot to mix it so it got a bit sweet towards the end, but will definitely order this again and mix next time!”
“Absolutely lovely seafood boil place. Reminds me of boiling crab but everything is delicious with its Cajun seasoning and such. Definitely recommend it if you wanna eat something messy. They have deals for 2,3, and 4 person groups that are quite delectable and well priced. Just be wary that if you bring your significant other. They will likely see you drenched kn sweat unless you choose the mild option 😉 😄”
“The AC is strong, theres free wifi, and the coffee actually tastes good. A great place to relax at and get work done, especially on a weekday morning. The strawberry milk also was refreshing for such hot weather and they gave enough ice to keep it cold for a while.”

“What I got:
Matcha Shaved Ice
MAIKO Special with Ube and Matcha
Hojicha Latte Float
I love this place! The matcha is legit good! It’s strong and definitely not too sweet! Their products are imported from Uji Japan! You can definitely taste it, it’s not your typical LA Matcha place that’s too water down and bland. This is definitely legit matcha! My go to is the matcha shaved ice and Maiko special with UBE and matcha combo is sooo sooo good! I tried the Hojicha Matcha Latte Float OMG!!! to die for! I love Hojicha with matcha ice cream the Best! The hojicha by itself is strong and I love it! Definitely bang for your back the portion is really huge and good for sharing.
The location is cute, simple and has seating options. It’s inside the plaza so there’s free parking.
The service is fast and friendly, they do get pretty busy and I love how the quality of the matcha/ teas stays the same. I’ve been to their Rowland heights location. Glad I found out that they also have 626 location in Monterey park!
This is definitely my go to matcha place.”
“Jiu Hao Can Ting is a delightful culinary gem that offers a wonderful blend of authentic flavors and a cozy atmosphere. The menu features a wide array of dishes that showcase traditional recipes with a modern twist, making it a fantastic spot for both adventurous eaters and those looking for comfort food. Overall, Jiu Hao Can Ting exceeded my expectations, and I can’t wait to return for another memorable meal! Highly recommend!!!!!”
“It is great for family gatherings, a traditional recipes of cantonese Chinese food, workers are friendly, great service, we came for family’s Birthday dinner, we ordered Steam garlic lobster over noodles, Pepper filet mignon, a whole winter melon soup…., the food quality is good, large portions and tasty.”
“We had a wonderful family birthday dinner at Duck House! The 3-course Beijing duck was absolutely fantastic, and the combination fried rice and crab soup were delicious too.
Thanks to Catherine and the friendly, attentive staff. The inside dining area had such a warm and cozy atmosphere, which made our celebration even more special.
Highly recommend making a reservation ahead of time for ordering Beijing Duck. We’ll definitely be back!”
