Most tortas are $19.83 and it includes a side. Love that they are on Doordash now and they offer online pickup! Got the Carne Asada Torta and the side - Apples and Cream. The torta was slightly burnt and darker than I expected. The carne asada didn't really seem like carne asada quality but more similar to ground beef quality. My favorite was probably the avocado because it was so fresh! The Apples and Cream was nothing special since it was just apples with cream. Overall, I wasn't too impressed with the torta and it seemed overpriced so I most likely won't return or recommend unfortunately.

We came here around 11AM and the place had a solid amount of customers when we arrived. The menu here is simple enough offering a few different burrito and bowl options with various meats and vegetables to use as toppings or fillings. I decided on giving the combo bowl a try which consisted of beef, chicken, a healthy dose of white rice, and some vegetables to top it all off. One cool thing this place does offer is slush drinks as well, I ended up going with what I think I recall being strawberry mango? well, it was something like that and it was absolutely delicious, definitely the best part of the experience. The food didn't take too long to come out and I gotta be honest here, I was pretty let down with the food. The chicken and beef were both fine, but without the sauce they were a tad on the dry side and didn't really taste all that great. The vegetables and rice were fine, but nothing to really discuss. Overall, I left Chop Chop Chicken with little to no desire to return again in the future. The food was on the bland side and the slush itself isn't really enough to make me want to drive back to Monterey Park for, so I guess this is a one and done for me.

I got the elote egg rolls to start and the chimichuri steak sandwich and BKB burger to share. The elote egg rolls were pretty good but, IMO, would have liked some more chunks of corn to represent the OG elote. BKB burger was ordered medium and was juicy and tender. The chimichuri steak sandwich was disappointing, however. I wasn't a fan of the chimichuri sauce or the lack there of it as the flavor was very subtle and too herby for me. I'd definitely come here again tho to try more of their drinks, especially the beers. I got the cali creamin which was a nice smooth stout and the mango tango soju cocktail that was pretty light. Parking is in the back if you're lost on parking details. There's indoor and outdoor seating where doggos are welcomed too!

Food came out not 10 minutes later, hot & delicious. The portions are great, enough to share for our family of 4. The restaurant is clean and the temperature was cool (on a 90F day). The big windows are great for people/car watching while you enjoy your meal. The selection of food is amazing, very varied. The selection of soft drinks is great too, we were pleasantly surprised to see stubborn soda cherry creme, our favorite. If we didn't live 30 min away, we'd probably be regulars.

Agedashi-dofu: this was supposed to come in a savory, soupy broth. dashi = broth. what we got was crispy tofu w a sweet sauce drizzled on it. I don't know what this was, maybe Chinese fusion. Salmon truffle: yup, it had truffle on it, and lots of oil. so oily, flavorless fish for $19.50. Shrimp fried rice in hot pot: DELISH!!! Chicken teri on hot plate: this was good too. Miso soup: horrible, reheated too many times & instant seaweed wasn't pre-soaked so came in clumps. (miso soup should only be brought to boiling 1x, after that just keep warm, no more re-boiling.) I'd try this place again but please fix your miso soup & maybe remove the Agedashi-dofu from your menu, it's totally wrong.

Manduyo was a great experience. This was my first time ordering a Dosirak, and it definitely won't…read morebe the last! For those of you unfamiliar, a Dosirak is a traditional Korean packaged meal with rice, banchan, protein, and an egg, similar to a bento box with different compartments for various foods. We ordered the Angus Beef Galbi (Short Rib) Dosirak ($29.99), which included nine pieces of short ribs, white rice, salad, japchae, four sides, and one mandu. Our Dosirak included mac salad, kimchi, house salad, and japchae. While it's on the pricier side considering the portion size, the food is high-quality and delicious. I hesitated a bit at the price since my son chose it for his lunch, and it's a lot of money for a child's meal. I knew he wouldn't finish it or want everything, especially the spicy items. We all loved the galbi and would order it again, price aside. The Dosirak was packaged perfectly, and each compartment was delicious, complementing the galbi perfectly. We really enjoyed the food at Manduyo and would definitely return!

However, i loved the soy sauce that they used! They said it was house made, I'm not totally sure what that means, but it was sweet and tangy and delicious. For me, the dumpling bowl was more of a large snack than a meal. I did go back in to try out another one of the food stalls. The price does seem to follow the portion size, around half the cost of a full meal. I would definitely get it again if I wasn't super hungry or wanted to try out a few places inside of the market.

The last 3 times they've at least attempted to rectify their mistake... meaning we had to make a 2nd trip to pick-up whatever it was they forgot. So we took a break... sad because we always enjoy the food. Foolishly, we decided to try again... and again they messed up our order... this time they didn't put chicken on our pasta. It seems whoever took the order didn't write it down... wish I could say this was a big surprise! So we were fully willing to pay the difference and make the 2nd trip once again. But because it was near closing that was not made an option... just a sorry and goodbye. So now... after 6pm on Sunday, we are thinking of what 2nd meal we will have to purchase and pick up.... because this plain pasta is just not going to feed the 2 of us. We have so few options already in Montebello and we always prefer to support local small businesses.... but REALLY??? How do you consistently get it wrong??? Well I guess quantity is more important than quality... so unfortunately now we have 1 less option.

I walked but it seems like they have parking in the back because people were entering through the back door. I ordered the Mombo plate which is a choice of sub and 2 sides. For sub I ordered THE 58 CLASSIC and as sides I had their Garlic Pesto Potato Salad and Purple Cabbage. Both good but very garlic centered, I love garlic so I don't mind but maybe next time I'll get something else to balance it better. Service was good.
