Laid-back, family-run seafood joint supplying breaded jumbo shrimp, clam chowder & grilled fish.

😐 I try pork carnitas in other places, and this place have to be the number one place for carnitas. The carnitas have an excellent taste and you will come back for more. I would give them 5 stars if the owners and staff allow the people eat and not remind people about Covid restrictions.

😐 Pizza was good, chances are I might never return, I had seen there page pop up often on Instagram and I was automatically intrigued, the pizza combos looked delicious, so we took a trip to El Monte and had to have a taste for ourselves, I personally went there to try their stacked Mojo potatoes,...

👍👍 The food is delicious. The staff is very friendly and attentive. Cafe de Olla, totally recommend having this coffee. Start with the soft tacos and you'll want to come back for the rest of the menu.

👍👍 Deliciously tasty vietnamese vegetarian food.

👍👍 I have been a patron of Little Joe's since before I began elementary school. They began in Baldwin Park and I along, with family and friends have followed them to the location they've been at for some time now. Home cooked Mexican food, including the tortilla chips.

👍👍 Came here on the weekend cause the huge "EAT" sign in front caught my attention. Decided to check it out, and I'm not gonna lie it did not disappoint! We ordered some cheeseburgers, 1 order of chili cheese fries [good for two people to share], and a chocolate shake. The quality of the hamburgers was...

👍👍 I was going to give them a 4 because there is a bit of wait, but I gave the star back because I feel it is the reason for the quality of the food. I am not a Peruvian food expert at all. I don't even know the names of all the dishes or any popular dishes! But I was in the neighborhood and the signa...

👍👍 Really good Mexican food., friendly service and the food 100 % Mexican flavor!

👍👍 Couldn’t decide between a milanesa torta (my usual), chicharron burrito or a carnitas burrito so I ordered the torta and a burrito with both kinds of meat. Boy was it good and boy was it too much food for one guy. I knew I would have left overs, but I actually gave half my torta to my GF and still h...
