    Strawberry mochi cake
    Francisco M.

    There's street parking to get here. There's loads of seating both indoor and outdoor. They have shaded covers for outside so you don't get too toasty outside. Plus they have a tv for watching sports. The staff are really nice and friendly. It's very chill and casual here. They have you sit down then arrive to get your order. The menus are on the QR codes on each table. I got the BKB burger medium rare. It was delicious! I was able to easily eat it all. The food is well portioned. Even with the fries I was just full. I also got the strawberry mochi cake. It was good and just sweet enough. Definitely share it, probably with 3+ people. I'd definitely return to try out more of the menu!

    Fish and chips
    Michelle T.

    Visited this place for the first time and had a good experience. They have both outdoor and indoor seating. The staff were nice, and there's street parking available. The parking lot was not available because they used that space for outdoor dining. I tried the BKB burger and fish and chips. the fish was large and crispy!

    Really would give 3.5 stars. Service is okay, not great. But they are really accommodating for big groups. Food, for the most part, is good. I enjoyed the fries but the fish with the fish and chips was the worst fish I've had. Wings were good, ahi tuna nachos were okay. Ube cheesecake is pretty good. I didn't try the burger, but others enjoyed it. Best thing I had was the bang bang shrimp. We ordered food to share so food in pics aren't full orders.

    Huge fish burger with a side of mixed salad
    Airi G.

    I did not expect the fish burger to be this big when it arrived in front of me. I could not fit my mouth around the burger because the beer-battered pollack was so large, which is not a complaint at all. It was super crispy and piping hot since it was fresh out of the fryer. I thought $18 seemed a bit steep at first but this lasted me two meals because I got full so quickly. I ordered it with mixed greens as my side so that it could act as a palate cleanser to balance the fried food. The staff was very kind and it was pretty empty both inside and outside when we went for happy hour on Friday but more people started trickling in as we were leaving. There's parking in the back or street parking if it's full.

    Really good chicken! Didn't have any beer so I can't speak on that but our food was good! Chicken juicy and seasoned to perfection. We were seated right away on a Sunday early evening. Friendly staff, and they have plenty of outdoor seating with a GIANT tv to watch whatever sporting event. I can't wait to come back!

    Chicken & waffles
    Emily J.

    This place was so fun with our dog! There is ample outdoor seating for brunch in the front. The patio is covered in tarp or you can eat under the side of the building. There are also heat lamps for those chilly days. If you drive by too fast you might miss it and there is street parking only. I think the alley is in the back but not sure if there is parking there. The place was more of a hipster Eagle Rock vibe located on the south side of Monterey Park by the 60. Service was prompt and friendly. They always filled our water glasses and made sure we were ok. I had a craving for chicken & waffles (A+) and this place popped up. The chicken was crispy and tender and the waffles cooked to perfection. The peppers added a nice kick to the dish but it wasn't overpowering. I prefer this over Howlin' Rays tbh. Would definitely order this again along with other dishes when I invite more people because the chicken & waffles definitely fed 2!! A non-pretentious venue that is pet friendly and will be on rotate for my future dining options.

    Fries and ketchup (Yuta jjk is a bum)

    Fries good and cheap, don't forget to lick the ketchup so you don't waste money. Service is fine, and ambiance is fine Don't forget to lick the ketchup so you don't waste money

    This place always offers great beer and food. This time I got their Banh mi , so good. It's a mix of roast beef and aju.

    Fish Burger
    Thomas T.

    Wish I discovered this place sooner - it's been an absolute go to spot for me and the boys! Satisfy your cravings with a hearty Fish Burger or Chimichurri Steak Sandwich and down it with their signature cocktails or many beer selections on tap. They've got parking in the back alley so be sure to tap in there or with street parking right on Garfield. Such a vibe with their patio and nightlights - kick it here sometime if you haven't!

    Elote egg rolls
    Emmanuel A.

    Ambiance is really cool, feels cozy and they have a big TV for the games. Service is top tier our server Dylan was chill and helpful. Food is really good, I really enjoyed the elote egg rolls they tasted just like a cheese emapandas. Really flaky. Their Bánh mì was good, 2x times better when you dip it. The star of the show is their draft beer, they have a great red and white ale, and their Mexican sal y limon beer was superb. Will be coming back for more beer. Quick shot out to John, his beer recommendations are the reason I love and keep coming back to this place.

    We sat in the outside area - my husband enjoyed his beer & I loved the refreshing watermelon sangria!
    Sara H.

    We enjoyed this place! We had dropped off friends @ LAX at 4pm on a Thursday...and after sitting in traffic nearly an 1 1/2 & it would be another 45 minutes or more to get home, we were hungry & wanted dinner & drinks. Found this place in Yelp & it didn't disappoint. Good food, service & drinks. The weather was surprisingly pleasant sitting outside on an August evening. If in the area again, we will stop at BKB. We had the shrimp appetizer & shared the fish & chips. Very generous portions! Parking was unique, but we found a spot out front easily.

    If you're looking for a laid back spot in sgv I would say this is probably the place. We came here on a Friday night, sat at the patio and enjoyed our dinner and drinks outdoors. As we were sitting at the patio, we noticed a table was celebrating a birthday and brought some crops to decorate the table, which was neat. The service was good as well. After we ordered our food and drinks, they would come back to follow up if we needed anything else. Food ordered : - Cajun shrimp po boy (comes with salad or fries) Super flavorful and crunchy. - Tuna Melt (comes with salad or fries) This was WORTH to order even if you think you can just make this at home. The portion is definitely enough to share with two people. I would recommend this place if you're looking for a chill place to catch up with friends or if had a long day from work, quick dinner and a drink solo

    Small independent businesses are vital to the economy, that's why I would rather patronize them over big box stores. In the City of Monterey Park, there's a plethora of Asian restaurants, particularly Chinese. There aren't many Pubs, Brewhouses or the likes. Then there's Brew Kitchen. Probably one of a handful of breweries here in the area. Their food selection is big enough to warrant a visit here. Their craft beer selection is pretty big although I'm not a drinker, but seems pretty good. Service is very attentive and the wait staff very friendly. The vibe is lively and plenty of outdoor seating. Parking is mostly street parking but there is plenty. If you are looking for a brewery/pub, Brew Kitchen is the place to go!

Ordered and it was vodka soda, so I told the guy who took our order, I watched him make the second drink and he used the liquid pump for the soft drinks, unfortunately again, no tonic, it tasted the same. I really didn't want to send it back a second time, but my daughter told me, how are they supposed to know if I don't say anything. So I did, I explained it was still the same, no sweetness, just bland, tonic normally has sugar, I explained maybe the package they were using, was out of whatever? I didn't realize they used syrups like for soda or carbonation, I always saw bars use tonic from a bottle. The guy took it back a third time and I watched the other bartender taste it, at that time I saw them changing something underneath the bar, he brought back the third drink, it was cloudy and did taste better, but at this point I was over it, I had one drink there for my birthday, and left after that. Super disappointed. I have to say when they closed down, (still not sure why) I wasn't surprised. I had some good times there due to the staff, but other members of the staff could be difficult. Several times over charged, and not very accommodating when I had to complain, but we would still go back. After this I don't think I will be back anytime soon. Nothing was updated during the year they were closed, they said they were renovating, not true. The woman's restroom still had broken hand towel dispensers, and soap dispensers, the door lock to the handicapped stall is still messed up. Nothing at all changed to make any upgrades. Really makes you wonder why they closed down to begin with, or shut down?

Couldn't believe what I saw on both Yelp and Apple Maps, 4.8 stars and over 100+ reviews and this spot is in Compton, my city. Didn't even know a spot like this existed. Busted a u-turn going down Alondra so I could go back to Atlantic then make that right and slide to Compton Blvd and make that left. A few streets from there on your right side you'll find boulevard gastropub. Sitting next door to some other business which is right next to a big parking lot which is free by the way. I've parked in this lot at least a couple of times just to go to that taco truck and never noticed gastropub. Immediately when I walked in it was good vibes and the sense of a good atmosphere. I was greeted by the owner and a young lady who was the bartender. The owner is real cool. We had a short conversation I shared with him how I discovered his business and informed him I do reviews as well as post some content on my social media platforms in hopes of businesses receiving more attention and customers. Unfortunately, due to them not having an alcohol or liquor license, some of their drinks such as the cocktails are more so wine based drinks. So please don't come here expecting to get some Don Julio or Hennessy. Ain't gone happen lol. I had a Classic Mojito and enjoyed it. The price was $10 which I found exceptional. The food was delicious. I recommend the Blvd Burger as a go to if you can't decide on anything else. I loved it so much I had to make a video. And definitely try the Voodoo Wings. You won't be disappointed. Just imagine buffalo wings with lemon pepper seasoning. Cuz that's what it is and they're fire. No bs with the ranch dressing too. I'm definitely returning for another visit. I can see this being a new frequent spot to pull up to and hang out. I love the ambiance, my drink, the food here and the customer service. All things to be considered when going out and spending money. What I spent was definitely worth the first time experience.
