“These are some tasty chicken and rice meals and refreshing, sweet drinks!
I was in the area for lunch when I came across Burd Chicken Rice. The menu and reviews intrigued me and made me hungry. Most of the menu featured dark meat chicken, and the Lemongrass Burrito caught my eye. I placed my order, which arrived at our table in a few minutes. The burrito had a delicious and clean flavor. The chicken was tender, the rice was nicely seasoned, and the veggies added a fresh texture. The ginger scallion sauce added a punch of acidity that complimented it well.
My friend enjoyed his Mix Burd Plate, which included classic and lemongrass chicken. After our meal, I decided to try the Cane Passion drink for the drive home. It was refreshing and sweet.
It was my first time here, and it was a pleasant experience with friendly staff and clean dining areas. I hope to return to the area to try more items or get that burrito again!”
“The influence is real and it definitely delivered! Wow, the Spicy California Caesar Wrap was DELICIOUS. I cannot wait to have it again! I was able to order online and pick it up fairly quickly because the restaurant is right outside near the parking garage. The ambiance is very relaxing, I love their outdoor seating area that doesn't feel like you're in the mall but I also like that you can just go straight to the mall if you wanted to. I'm super grateful for influencers that find gems like these.”
“Hidden gem in this neighborhood. Quality sushi place with reasonable prices. Creative rolls that my eleven year old likes. We especially liked the Yummy salmon roll.”
“Best grilled meats! Finest dining experience with a lot of choices of grilled food!”
“I've been a loyal patient at Apex Dental since 2019. Not only have I referred my family and friends to this office, but Dr. Appal's commitment to honesty and perfectionism continuously impresses me. From crowns to bridges and even an implant, Dr. Appal has transformed my smile, and I couldn't be happier with the results. Maribel, Cynthia, and the front desk guy ( forgot his name ) from the office staff are also incredibly welcoming and kind. I confidently recommend this office and wholeheartedly stand by Dr. Appal's work.”

“I discovered Namu Kitchen on accident and I’m SO glad I did. This was my first time having Korean breakfast and it’s now one of my all time favorites. For my first visit, I had their breakfast plate, a delightful and balanced meal, featuring fluffy scrambled eggs with savory mushrooms, a fresh mixed greens salad, crispy kale, sweet strawberries and blueberries, and a satisfying sausage. The whole grain toast with tangy orange jam ties it all together. Paired with the cozy atmosphere and friendly service, this thoughtfully prepared plate makes for a wholesome and enjoyable breakfast experience. Highly recommended! And shout out to Juan for the great service! Thank you!!!”
“Been to this place three times, I always got food to go.
The first time I tried their Pho with flank and brisket. It was good, but I always prefer something that hits a little bit more.
Second time I decided to try the one with charbroiled beef and it was a game changer. I ordered it two days in a row cause it's absolutely delicious. The beef is very well marinated and tasted lightly sweet and smoky, I love to eat it even by itself.
I'll be coming back for sure.”
“Probably the best wings I’ve ever had — I still think about them. The cheesecake, most definitely, is the best I’ve ever had (carrot cake was also phenomenal). Only got to try these and the buffalo fries, but I can’t wait to com back to try even more Updated from previous review on 2025-06-23”
“We're SFV Kopan regulars, and when the opportunity arose to try an SGV Kopan, we didn't hesitate.
Same amazing food, great drinks, and superior service - simply new faces and new surroundings.
Thanks for a lovely meal!”

“I had a tooth that was giving me the worst pain over the weekend. I called on Monday early afternoon and was able to be seen the same day. Crystal the dental assistant was great! She told me Dr. Ramirez would make sure I didn’t feel any pain. I ended up having to have 2 teeth extracted and with no pain at all. I have a new Dental office! Great job ladies 😁”
“El Pilon Market is such a gem in our community. The food is always delicious—I’ve tried quite a bit of the menu and have never once been disappointed. The staff is amazing, greeting you the moment you walk in. Even when they’re busy, they acknowledge you and let you know they’ll be right with you, which is rare these days and so appreciated.
This week I had an experience that really showed me what kind of place this is. I lost my wallet on Tuesday, and when I came back on Friday to retrace my steps, they had kept it safe for me the entire time. Someone had kindly turned it in (including my cash), and the staff made sure it was taken care of until I returned. That kind of honesty and care is priceless, and I can’t express my gratitude enough.
The owner is phenomenal as well—kind, approachable, and genuinely invested in both the business and the community. Between the amazing food, the welcoming staff, and the integrity they show, I couldn’t be more thankful to have El Pilon Market here.
Highly recommend! 🤗🥰🥳”
“I was going to Denny's to eat and learned they didn’t have a her and were closing early. So I looked around the shopping center for a beautiful restaurant to enjoy and learned about West Covina Thai Cuisine. I walked in, was greeted with a warm, loving smile, and offered to sit wherever I felt comfortable and offered something to drink. I sat down, ordered a delicious Thai tea, and looked over the menu.
New educated me on the menu and offered me an appetizer that was so good. I was waiting for my guest to start for a meeting over dinner, and once they arrived, we ordered dinner and more drinks. This restaurant gets an A+ for comfort, food quality, presentation, and overall restaurant cleanliness. I can’t wait to invite more friends to dinner here. The prices were perfect.”
“I was craving dim sum, so I thought I was going to a traditional teahouse. It is take-out only. The pepper steamed chicken feet was very good. The beef tripe was just the right texture, a little crunch left, and the ginger flavor just right. The pork ribs were perfect, too. It would have been nice to have a table and some good tea. I ate these in my car.”
“My friend and I came to this unassuming family owned restaurant for lunch. She had been there twice and loved it and so I thought I’d give it a try. The lunch special was really excellent. I had the spicy basil with beef and it came with rice and a very fresh quality side salad. My friend enjoyed her chicken pad Thai. It looked so good that I ordered one to go for my husband. He loved it too. The service was warm and attentive. I’ve been searching for a good Thai restaurant to replace Basil and Co, which has excellent food but it’s always crowded, loud, and the service was unapologetically slow at my last visit. Verdict: My new go-to Thai restaurant. It doesn’t have the ambience of Basil and Co but it checks off a lot of important boxes for me.”

“It is a typical Carl's Jr. establishment. This one is located on the corner of Eastland Center. I have visited this place, several times, in March and April of 2024, when I worked in the area. I would come here, to have my lunch. The meals were well-made, and delicious, at the same time. During my visits, there was ample of space, to sit down, and enjoy my lunch meals. The tables, and the place overall, was neat and well maintained. Furthermore, the staff members were courteous, and helpful. Of course, I cannot forget to mention that prices, too, were not on the expensive side. So, if anyone enjoys burger meals, and is visiting West Covina, I would recommend a visit to this establishment. The prices, and delicious meals, themselves, are worth the visit.”
“Love this place. It's at the center of the community where all the actions are taking place. Neat drive-thru for a quick order and back on the road. Inside ordering is a breeze, counter clerks welcoming attitude make anyone feel welcome. Service is prompt and food ready in matters of minutes. I've been to other fastfood places, and this one ranks on top of my list. Check it out, and get the service you deserve.”
“First time trying sushiholics and the experience was amazing variety of sushi, friendly staff and clean area. Definitely recommend coming here and trying out their sushi.”
“Classic Filipino Food !!!
If you grew up in Metro Manila, you very well know this restaurant, where perhaps you’ve even celebrated a special day in it.
it’s natural that Filipinos overseas go to a Barrio Fiesta when they crave for nostalgic Filipino food.”

“Patty's was very communicative and responded quickly to our emails about our wedding cake. They made a cake exactly to our specifications and it tasted divine! We got the banana cake with guava filling and cream cheese frosting, and we got so many compliments on the taste. I applaud Patty's and can't wait to eat more of the leftovers :)”
“If you're on the lookout for an exceptional dining experience that feels like a warm embrace, this charming family-owned gem is a must-visit. The owners are not just figureheads; they're genuinely involved in the day-to-day operations, which adds a personal touch that’s increasingly rare in the restaurant scene today.
One delightful revelation I uncovered is that they prepare all the Banchans—those delightful small side dishes—right from their own kitchen. This homemade approach really shines through in every bite. I had the pleasure of trying their Bibimbap, Galbi beef, and the seafood tofu, and I can honestly say that each dish was a revelation.
The Bibimbap was a colorful medley of textures; the fresh vegetables and perfectly cooked rice harmonized beautifully with the delectable sauce. The Galbi beef was succulent and bursting with flavor, and you could tell it had been marinated with care. The seafood tofu was simply outstanding—rich, creamy, and generously packed with fresh seafood, making it a highlight of my meal.
What really struck me was the freshness of the ingredients. Everything tasted sumptuous and made with love, which is becoming a rarity in today's fast-paced dining environment. It’s clear that this restaurant values quality and authenticity, making it a standout option for anyone craving delicious Korean cuisine.
Without a doubt, this will be my go-to tofu house from now on. If you're in the mood for a home-cooked meal that feels both comforting and elevated, don't miss out on this fantastic culinary experience!”
“Stopped in and got some of the Dave chicken bites. The medium and the hot boy are the hot ones. You can smell like when it comes to the table how hot it is. The spice is just oozing off of it. I got a side of cheese for the fries and only a couple of the cheese sauce. The chicken is hot and fresh and super spicy with lots of flavor. The pickles are a really good addition the cheese with the fries is super tasty. If you’re not into season on your french fries seasoning, not salt the Dave sauce kinda taste like a Chick-fil-A not a ranch they clean restroom. Lots of parking. Everyone was really nice 10 out of 10. Recommend this location. They also have baby ice and you get to fill up your own drink. They have no drive-through..”
“Our recent dining experience at this establishment was highly positive. The curry and Tom Yum soup were particularly noteworthy, and the chicken Satay was also excellent. The portion sizes were generous, surpassing those of other establishments. Furthermore, the staff provided friendly and helpful recommendations. We would certainly consider a return visit.”
“One of my favorite places for a boba drink. The shop has special events for arts and crafts, kpop fans, and holidays. I go for the delicious drinks. My faves are the orange milky way, sweet pink, and strawberry mochi. The Alaska sunset, honey lemon mint tea, and fruit tea are also very good. The service has always been great. I only wish they were open later. Sometimes my boba craving hits at 830pm and it's too late 😭”
“Great place to grab your micheladas/shots with a variety of signature tacos and dishes to choose from. Food is rich in flavor as well. It won't disappoint ?? I recommend this establishment !!!”
“Not gonna lie, the Turon with Ube Ice Cream is probably my FIRST experience with Filipino Umami. I mean, the experience of eating this dish was reminiscent of eating deep-fried ice cream”

“Great food! I've been here twice and have tried the fresh shrimp and tofu spring rolls with terrific accompanying sauce, flavorful chicken fried rice, shrimp pho with delicious broth, and the lovely Lychee fruit tea! Yum! Totally coming here again... and bringing more friends. Mangosteen has a clean, modern atmosphere, primarily indoors with a couple of outdoor tables. Friendly and helpful customer service.”
“First timers here at Lazy Dog. I was thinking this would be a hot dog place but it isn’t lol, they gave us some garlic chips for it being our first time I thought that was really nice of them. I ordered Kung Pao Shrimp, it was really good but a bit TOO salty for my liking. I also got a beer they ID you so bring you’re ID.”

“Dined in today. Highly recommended. This restaurant was first established in 1931 (almost 1 century ago!!) Fantastic food and very hygienic! I knew the business owner and his wife for years, and they are all germophobes (me too. That is why I'm so serious about hygiene in restaurants!) Xiao Long Bao, Won Ton, and BBQ ribs are all must-tries!!!”
“Thursday Nights !! A+ Bartender Rosie goes above and beyond . I’m not only if she friendly and acknowledges any and every person who walks in she’s not like other bartenders I’ve seen other establishments who are on their phone more than they are working. She brings in a collective of different patrons all friendly Never once not felt safe when I am there It’s a shame the other Bartenders at this places sister establishment in Covina were as well Trained as Rosie. Or even new had to make a drink Tina’s Tavern Thursdays Hands down the place to be”
“Top smash burger spot in San Gabriel valley, Mikey is super cool and the burgers are amazing. Be sure to get the double smash burger as it has a lot more taste than a single! His special sauce is so good as well!
