    Chicken Fried Steak & Eggs ($15.99) - "One of the best!!"
    Ian A.

    I ordered the Chicken Fried Steak & Eggs ($15.99). It's heavenly. It's one of the best in the SGV (or possibly all of Southern California). It's thick, yet it's juicy. The crust is thin but crackly. The ingredients screamed fresh! I LOVE Alamansor Grill (Alhambra)!!! I arrived at Alamansor Grill (Alhambra) on Friday (around 9:17AM). Parking is spacious. Its parking is shared with the golf course. Customers can order at Alamansor Grill (Alhambra) even if they're not playing golf. When I entered, Staff quickly welcomed me. Staff let me choose my own seat (inside or outside patio overlooking the golf range). I sat outside underneath an umbrella, and a friendly waitress eventually greeted me. Staff (receipt says Denise) is professional and friendly. Staff quickly answered my questions, and Staff worked hard. My food arrived in seven minutes and 36 seconds. As mentioned, I adored my Chicken Fried Steak & Eggs ($15.99). I selected my eggs to be scrambled. And I chose hash browns for the potatoes. It all had immaculate textures and flavors. The hash browns had an uncommon crisp crackle; the eggs tasted fresh & soft; the gravy is well-seasoned and light; and the chicken fried steak is hearty and huge! I felt taken aback by this Chicken Fried Steak's magnificence. This is my most requested breakfast dish at any breakfast diner... and out of many, many different breakfast spots, I'm humbled that the best one came from a restaurant at a f***ing golf course! I left Alamansor Grill (Alhambra) with a full stomach and a dumb smile. Regarding ambiance, Alamansor Grill (Alhambra) is clean and welcoming. There's an outside patio with a fresh airy breeze; the golfers are nearby, and customers can observe them playing. However, the only music is radio with commercials. The interior also has clean tables; there's also two large flat screen TVs showing the news or sports. Overall, I had a magical, delicious experience at Alamansor Grill (Alhambra). The food is affordable, filling, and cooked passionately. The chefs are very talented! If you love Chicken Fried Steak & Eggs, this is a must-try! I am so happy!! 5 out of 5!! GO!!

    What a great place for breakfast. I came at 745am Saturday to eat with my kiddo cuz he wanted pancakes and an omlette. Prices are great. Quality is good. Service pretty fast. There were 2 other parties there, probably to eat before playing golf. A great place to eat with your family before/ after playing at the park.

    We met for a late breakfast/early lunch on Sunday. It was so nice to see our friends at the Grill. I ordered my signature breaky 2 eggs, hash browns and hot cakes. We also ordered the french toast breaky and a grilled chicken sandwich. Service was 10/10 as it always is!! Parking is a pain because it's a busy space. The vibe is always it because they are so awesome. THIS WILL ALWAYS be my #1 choice for an all American breakfast. The price is super affordable and the breakfast menu allows you to customize and add on all your favorites.

    Huevos ranchuros and menudo
    Yuyao L.

    Came for breakfast and decided to sit outside because the view is so nice! Lovely place for outside seating as you get to see people golf and lots of birds. We got the menudo, huevos ranchuro, and waffles and they were all good! I like how they dont skimp out on meat in the menudo. Our server was also really nice and attentive and checked up on us often. Would definitely be back!

    We tried this place on a whim and it was pretty good! The service was very attentive and fast. Nice ambience with a view of the golf course and the prices were decent too. Our food was hot and fresh and I appreciate that my omelette was nice and stuffed! Definitely worth checking out if you're in the area. :)

    One of my favorite restaurants. I love their food, service and ambiance, everyone is really nice here and prices are average. We come at least twice a month, at least

    BLT
    Laurie D.

    I met some friends for breakfast here the other day. It's a nice little restaurant located at a golf course. I ordered the Chilaquiles Plate with red sauce, as the server mentioned that the red sauce was spicier than the green sauce. OMG!! It was super spicy! A friend of mine ordered the Chilaquiles Plate with green sauce, and she was literally sweating. Poor thing! So, if you like it super spicy, go for the red sauce! Another friend ordered the BLT, and she said it was really good. The prices are very reasonable, and the service was great. I will definitely go back again!

    Salad
    Victoria S.

    First time visiting, located next to the almansor golf course. Friendly service, affordable food with indoor & outdoor seating. The food came out quickly. My friend enjoyed the Chilaquiles Plate & I enjoyed the Build Your Own Burger with salad. Great place to eat, especially if you're playing golf & need a break!

    Came for their Sunday Brunch buffet! It's good to make a reservation, but I found that the day I went there were still a good amount of empty tables, so probably also fine to walk in. As advertised, there's unlimited crab legs, prime ribs, and many more like cod, chicken, etc. There were 3 made to order stations - omelette, waffle, and pasta. One side was also very Mexican style focused, with menudo, chilaquiles, and beef fajitas. The interior is also very nice and well lit, with a great view of their golf course. I would recommend coming to Almansor's Sunday brunch for large family get togethers!

    My first time trying Almansor Grill food. The clam chowder was so good and the Asian Salad was delicious. I need to try the other plates The service was wonderful very welcoming and friendly. I got to talk to Dolores and she was so sweet and explained some of the plates from the menu. The ambiance is peaceful you can have a nice lunch and chat or have a drink while seeing the nature outdoors. You can also sit outside. I would come back to tru the breakfast. Recommended it.

    I haven't eaten here in ages, but had the pleasure of dining in on Easter Sunday morning and feasted on an omelette, hash browns, and some delicious French toasts! IMHO, this is one of the most affordable places to have brunch, and I miss being able to come here on weekends to enjoy a nice breakfast overlooking the golf course and Almansor Park.

    Breakfast Burrito
    Lyane P.

    Comfort food at a reasonable price. We came in on a Sunday after church with a party of 7. Service was quick and efficient. Food was good-no nonsense. We ordered hamburger with onion rings, chicken sandwich with fries, Rueben sandwich with fruit, nachos, 2 omelettes (one with bacon and sausage, the other one with mushrooms and onions) and a breakfast burrito. Prices for all entrees were around $10-$11. No complaints except that the Rueben was a bit salty.

    How much is Sunday brunch per person?

    Is it no longer buffet brunch?

    I think you're talking about Almansor Court. They are temporarily closed for Sunday brunch. Almansor grill is the small restaurant next door that used to be Birdie's.

    Dine in only? Can I order meals TOGO?

    Yes

    Do they have bottomless mimosas or happy hour drink menu on weekdays?

    In sure

    I thought this restaurant was going to be similar to a lot of the other Chinese "bistros" or…read more"cafes" around this 626 area, but this one is really a step above, with more personable staff, with a longtime manager/owner who cares about the food and the customers. We had the seafood pasta which was very tasty. The sauce has plenty of flavor and kick, and there is a lot of fresh seafood provided, including mussels and shrimp. Also had the lamb chops, which is one of their most popular dishes, and I can see why. The lamb was cooked perfectly, soft juicy, super easy to eat. I loved that there was chimichurri sauce provided on the side and it went well with everything, including the mashed potatoes and vegetables. This is definitely worth a revisit for any future special occasions!

    The food was above average. I could tell by the yelp photos that the chef might not be fully…read moreAmerican. Seeing the server and an Asian staff coming out from kitchen confirmed that the cooking wasn't fully American taste bud. But that is the reason why it hit me very well. Honestly, whether you have American or fusion or Asian taste bud, the taste quality is better than some average American restaurants. I tried the butter squash soup, lamp chop, and bow tie pasta with chicken. I was enjoying my soup and lamp chop a lot. The pasta was pleasant to me, but it wasn't exceptionally great compared to the lamp chop. My fiancé loved the pasta though, saying that the sauce wasn't overwhelming. It is not a cheap place to come for, but it is because the food and drinks (good white wine) have quality. The wait for the entrees was a little long, even though it wasn't that busy. I believe it was the chef spending time to make sure each dish was done well, unlike the busy restaurant where chefs only follow the restaurant's recipes to make it quick and easy. Lastly, the ambience was okay, but it was more an older fine dining/family owned style. It had some nostalgic vibe if you'd take it that way. Keep it up. I really hope it will be there forever long.

They all sounded pretty similar, but the slightly more expensive ones were better. Looking back, my first visit was for happy hour oysters, so they probably weren't the freshest batch. We also got hot, crispy fish and chips, and steamed clams and mussels. The standout was the Bouillabaisse, recommended by our waiter over the cioppino. Great call, the broth was delightful and well balanced with just the right amount of spice. We went on a Saturday night and the vibe was a pleasant surprise. Live DJ spinning R&B and throwbacks, fun energetic atmosphere, and drinks that were surprisingly affordable compared to a few cities over in Pasadena. Glad we gave it another shot. I'll definitely be back for happy hour, which runs daily, though I might skip the oysters this time around. Then again, who knows.

We had a reservation so we were seated right away on the second floor, just above the bar. The music was a little on the loud side so conversation was a little strained. The food was absolutely amazing. Our server was very friendly and informative but was not quite as attentive as we would expect for an establishment like this. This was our first time here, so we had to try the Asparagus Fries. The asparagus was cooked to perfection but the batter did not have much flavor. Members of our party ordered the California Salad, a Veggie Burger, the Meatloaf and a Picante Pizza. The California Salad was smaller than expected but delicious. The Veggie Burger was excellent! The Meatloaf was the hit of the table. It was so good that my wife did not offer a taste to any of us. She was in food Heaven. The pizza was exactly as described and tasted wonderful.

We also had one of their Warm Butter Cake's with some excellent vanilla ice cream on top. Absolutely wonderful!. This may be our new "go-to" place.

For food, we started with the bacon deviled eggs and shrimp taquitos. Those deviled eggs were lightly fried, which was different, then had apple wood smoked bacon on top, just a really tasty bite. The shrimp taquitos were also not what you would expect, nice and light but still very good. Entrees we went with the center cut fillet and the prime rib dip with swiss cheese on a brioche bun. That sandwich just melts if your mouth after dipping it in the jous, and the cheese was the perfect accompiament. The fillet was cooked perfect as well, coming out medium rare. Overall, great restaurant in Pasadena. Definitely get the Mai Tai, Devine eggs and prime rib dip. Taquitos were good and, if you're feeling like another hg er appetizer, definitely a way to go . The fillet, also great but I feel you can get it anywhere.

When it came out, the outer layer was cooked medium well. However, cutting into the meat revealed that it was still raw on the inside. I asked for medium rare, and I can recognize medium rare, but the meat inside was a dark red. That's raw or rare at best. I flagged down the waiter to send it back and he was very nice about it. The meat came back with the same problem. Outer layer was again cooked medium well since the meat was all light brown color, no pink at all. Cutting into it revealed a dark red meat inside. I took a few more bites but didn't want to send it back again. The chef was off that night and I didn't want to be a difficult customer. I would recommend something else on the menu, stay away from the prime rib.
