    I've had my doubts of this place because it's in a part of a shopping center that's not heavily occupied. My boyfriend brought me for the first time because I LOVE ASIAN FOOD. My first impression was they didn't have a big selection HOWEVER the selection that they do have is VERY VERY TASTY. our 2 favorite items are the chicken+ shrimp + egg soup $7.98 with tax and the flavorful crunchy orange chicken. A small side is $3 even and is considered medium size if they were to serve in Chinese to go boxes. The parking lot is VERY BIG. There is a sit down area of about 10 tables, fountain selection is coke, diet, hi-c, raspberry iced tea, Sprite and fanta orange, also orange bang and horchata. They also have a bottled drink selection of over 7 drinks. Mini combo $3.89 Special combo (2 sides + 1 entree) Regular combo (2 sides + 2 entrees) They sell items a la carte also

    Polite friendly workers. Great Value. Good quality for take out Tried China Express once in the past, had mixed reviews on it so decided to give it another try. This place is stuck between a laundromat and a swap meet, not the greatest of locations. Plenty of parking. My first impressions of the restaurant atmosphere were not so great. The kitchen and dining area are clean. Four bare walls, a few pictures, a TV, and some cheap dining furniture. I feel the prices make it a good value. The workers were polite and helped me with any request. The egg rolls and rice were decent. The chicken was tender and the batter coating was only slightly overcooked. Good quality for take out food. The dining atmosphere was unwelcoming, therefore I gave it four stars.

    The reviews on yelp lie because the food is to greasy and the food leaves you a after taste of fish, the place looks clean.

    I ordered a 'small' catering order meant to serve 8-10 people but still have leftovers two days…read morelater!! The fried chicken was very flavorful, a little salty, with a thicker coating reminiscent of KFC. The rice and beans were a big hit, and I think I liked it even more than the chicken. White corn tortillas were pretty standard and perfect for making "tacos" with everything. I appreciated the bottle of ketchup and cholula than came with the order too. Even more, I was able to adjust my pick up time (slight error on my part) and they were able to oblige (after contacting the WhatsApp number). This location is relatively new, complete with a drive thru and ample parking. The crew is comprised of a bunch of hardworking, diligent ladies who are doing their best to ensure a clean, well-stocked, and friendly environment. I will definitely be back :)

    Ugh, terrible experience with online order…read more This is my first pollo campero. Saw it opened and had long crazy line day after day, so I figured I'll try it once the hype died down. Placed order on the website online. It said food would be ready in 10 minutes. Cool, or so I thought. Went there to pickup and they didn't even start making the order yet. Then 15 minutes later they told us the chicken breast wasn't available and asked if they could substitute with thigh, or we thought maybe that's what the guy said. They couldn't speak English and we couldn't speak Spanish. Go figure. Food was out 20 minutes after that. Seriously, I could've gotten something else that's not fast food and probably better for my arteries, within that time. What intrueged me was the yucca fries. I liked it but it lacked crunch, compared so some that I've had. Fries, omg probably the saddest, driest, limpiest, fries I've ever had. Even my toddler didn't like it (and he normally gobble up fries). The spicy chicken sandwich and grilled chicken were good. Crispy chicken on the fried + nice seasoning on the grilled. The chicken is the only reason I'm not giving this place a 1 or 2 stars.

You order first then you have a seat & they bring it all out to ya. We started off by ordering the pina de cucumber agua frescasss!! Woahhh! Incredible, it was perfect & I would come back just for that alone! We also ordered some asada chilaquiles came with rice & beans, eggs & chips! Bomb, my bf loved em! We ordered their Menudo. Also got a pancake breakfast came with 2 bacon & 2 sausage usually places only do 1 or the other! But not here & I love that! Sausage was so juicy & delicious! Pancakes so fluffy & buttery. Everything we had was so good, loved all their recommendations. The owners & Myra were so nice & lovely. Great customer service! Shout out to Myra on all her help, getting us everything we needed, that girl is on it! I love that this place is family owned, you can really see & feel how much love they put into brother's burger! Will 100% be back! & don't forget always order the agua fresca ya won't regret it!

The ambiance would have been good, if it wasn't for the tv that was in a channel with a movie. The problem was the previous and ads, in my opinion, were not appropriate for the younger audience, especially not good for little ones. About the service, not rude, but not as friendly as expected. I understand the only lady was busy, but didn't bother to check on us and the food wasn't ready for both of us at the same time, so with all the fans on the ceiling and the floor fans my food got cold by the time my husbands pork chops arrived. It is wheelchair accessible, but there ate only booths, so I'm not sure of the wheelchair in either isle it would block the traffic.

    Taco Treat opened 50+ years ago and this was my first time visit. After driving by for many years,…read moreI'm glad I finally made the stop. I will most definitely return to try the green chili burrito. The menu includes tacos, burritos, taquitos, tostadas, quesadillas, hamburgers, onion rings, and fries ($2 extra to add chili cheese). Andrew provided excellent customer service and let me know right off the bat that it's a cash-only business. I decided to try the most popular item, which is the deep fried bean and cheese burrito. It had a nice crunch and I would say the beans are made in-house. For $2 I had a side order of taquitos so I could have some guacamole, which was nice and chunky, not a watered-down thin sauce. The taquitos did not taste homemade. Notes: - Outdoor seating - Picnic Tables - Free parking - Check out their special prices on Monday and Tuesdays. It's a real bargain. Sincerely, Rosemary

I probably should have done my research. Far be it from me to tell Taco Treat how to make a burrito. I just wasn't braced for the crunch. For the record, it was okay. Not a revelation, but it was $4, so I'm not going to stand here and workshop it. The real mystery is whether a non-fried burrito exists on this menu. Only one way to find out.

Inside the place is more vibrant and clean. Photos of menu items are astound the window. My parents wanted to come try it after so many years and we went as a family of 6 which they have traveled mainly for 4 adults. We ordered a variety of food items such as zucchini fries, chili cheese fries, pastrami sandwich with onion rings, fish and chips dinner, and ice cream. The staff were friendly and always available, since we can go to the ordering station to ask questions, we asked for picked jalapeños and carrots to go with our food. They gave us a bunch of them in bags. Everything was good, I would say that my favorite is still their zucchini fries and ranch, I love their ranch and glad they gave us a couple containers because I needed more. Definitely a great bite to grab, I think I prefer snacks from here like their huge portion of fries but their burgers are really good as well.

My family was craving a breakfast burrito so I brought them here, because they serve breakfast items all day. I noticed they had a grill with open flames and thought their burgers must have that nice smoky charred taste, so I got a pastrami cheeseburger. The breakfast burritos were both good and filling, but there was nothing about it that stood out over some of the other burger spots around Monrovia. The pastrami cheeseburger unfortunately had no charred flavor at all. It didn't even have any grill marks, so I'm not sure what the open flame was reserved for. What tasted like thousand island dressing overpowered the beef and pastrami, so I mostly tasted the sweet sauce. Well, we got what we were craving, but I was left disappointed. That's just me expecting too much from a $11. burger, from a place that has the same name as me, and the word 'Burger' in its name.

Parking in the front was tough, I was lucky to find a spot but I'm sure there's street parking in the street next door. I walked in and it was DARK but light at the same time. Very stuffy indoor as well, with some seating but all of them were taken so I had to order and go home to eat. I didn't realized they had less variety, so instead of getting two 3 item combos, I had to change the second to a 2 item combo instead. The dishes were almost gone so I ended up taking the rest while the fresh ones were on the way and since there was a line I didn't want to hold them up. I got chow mein with teriyaki chicken, potato chicken, and mushroom chicken. Then for the other I got white rice with orange chicken and teriyaki chicken. I wanted their char siu pork but it was $2 extra and I thought "what if I didn't like it" so my mind was made up to skip a 3rd item. Another thing I'm not used to was that they added the 3rd item on top of everything. I'm used to the third item being separated but surprised they all fit. Usually the places pack it too full that even 2 items won't close without overflow. They had a POS system instead of the old cash register so that was fancy, I still paid and tipped in cash. But you can also add tip to your total in the touchpad. It took me 10min to drive home and the food was still warm. It did leak a bit (not sure where the sauce came from) but I wish I waited for the fresh batch because the chicken was dry and tough, they all had great flavor other than the texture.
