Terrific location! Food: 4.4 out of 5. Homemade and…read moreauthentic dishes. Nothing bad to say about all the food we have ordered here. You get what you pay for. They do not skimp on their portions and actually care how their food looks at the time of service. This place makes sure their food looks nice, but don't charge you extra for that. Service: 5 out of 5 their employees are very pleasant and professional. They gladly answer all your foodie ingredient questions. They are more than accommodating. You will see, they are genuinely nice. As far as the ambience goes, for certain a stro g 4 out of 5. Nothing can be more comforting than to sit back and relax here. They have hi tables woth stools, as well as the hybrid style booth/table combo. Fans are always circulating and it is definitely not too stuffy. They do have music playing in the background, but it is not too loud like many places do. We have been back to try new and different dishes....all have been very tasty. A smaller and cozy place to have a nice meal. I can tell they cater to the local college students and offer a student discount. ***Hidden Bonus: their café de la olla is DELICIOUS! You can twll they make it fresh regularly and do not let it sit. It is by far waaaaay nicer than what they serve anywhere in the area. We would drive to get a nice cup in Monrovia, but this café de la olla beats it hands down. It is NOT bitter, nor is it over sweetened! So.etimes we swing by for a To-good cup. We recommend this place for everything: nice food served with a friendly smile.

Super excited about this place due to the good reviews on Yelp. The place is small with a few…read moretables. We sat in the middle bar because there were no other tables available. We got complimentary totopos (chips), pico de gallo, red salsa and refried beans to start. Wow! The refried beans were sooooo good! So flavorful! The chips were delicious too. You can tell they're homemade. The cashier was nice when taking our order. The menudo had good flavor but we didn't care for the hominy since we're not use to eating it with menudo, only with pozole. The meat was cut in tiny pieces. We also had the chilaquilicious chilaquiles which consisted of the chilaquiles with carne asada, bacon and eggs. 1/2 salsa roja and 1/2 salsa verde. The portion was good, however the green salsa can use more flavor. It seemed plain. The red one was better for my taste, it had a Smokey chipotle flavor. Not hot at all. The carne asada could use more salt or seasoning too, seemed a little plain. We tried their salsa macha (chili oil) omg soooo goood and the perfect amount of spiciness. We took home what we didn't finish. I hate wasting something so delicious. Overall a solid 4.

Yes, get in line. Yes, it is worth the wait…read more After my 2nd time, here it pays to arrive a few minutes before they open up shop. I am told Wednesday to Sunday 6pm to 12am only, so arrive a bit early get in line!!! The meat choice and options are ALL good!! Highly recommend the pastor, Im allergic to pineapple but it was worth suffering for for the bomb tacos. I absolutely loved the Costillas de cerdo (pork ribs) plate, it was enough for two people, but made for great leftovers for breakfast the next day shredded with some eggs!! The horchata is so delicious, definitely want to try the strawberry Agua fresco next time, and the melons!! Killer salsa bar, love the guacamole salsa the best, their salsas pack alot of heat (and flavor) and watch out for those cucumbers, they come with spicy chopped orange habaneros, don't mistake them for carrots Will definitely be frequenting their location, which is in a nice lil cul de sac across from the church. So beautiful mindful of the area, and the parking. They do offer a nice little seating area, with napkins, chairs and utensils. And while you're in line salivating the smells and being one with thr charcoal smoke, be prepare to get samples from the grill master!! Great marketing and to ease the anxiety of what to order! Absolutely try Jonny's!!!!

A must try and yes, the line is worth it. When we first arrived the line was ok, nothing too crazy…read more As the night went on, it got larger and larger. Boy, this place is popular. The food is really good and the short ribs are amazing. You can get a bunch of them or just ask for 2 or 3. They are really tender and tasty. I really love the staff and how they cater to the line. One of the staff who was chopping up some meat said, "would you like a try?" Of course everyone in the line said yes and he proceeded to give out small bites of the meat he was chopping up as a taste test. Now you have Happy Customers. My top choices are the short ribs and suadero which you can request to be crispy. I prefer it to be tender. It reminded me of carnitas. Please be courteous to the neighbors as it is in a cul-de-sac off of Barranca and Grand. Try to keep the line off the sidewalk as well so others can have a walkway. You can take your food to go or they do have some tables for seating.
