It doesn't look like a Detroit style that I'm familiar with but don't let that fool you. The flavor coming off this pie satisfied my craving. I'm loving the crispy pep and spicy sauce. It's not overwhelming to where you can't enjoy but has just enough heat to make you feel it. Crust is flavorful and garlicky. I attempted to eat the whole thing but I guess I'm not a teenager anymore. That's ok. Can't wait to try it cold. (And the pizza grease?!, love it. Wish they had a ranch/pizza grease option to have on the side, hint, hint).

The Supreme (Jumbo 18")
Maria L.

I like the pizza here especially on Wednesdays and Sundays when they have a special for Jumbo size (18") specialty pizzas. My favorite is the "supreme" pizza. It is filled with lots of toppings. Excellent pizza. This place is located on a busy street. There is a small "green zone" for people to stop briefly in front of the restaurant and run in to pick up their food. There is also a small parking area in back of the restaurant. But it is not easy to find a space. I recommend bringing someone with you when you go pick up your food from Jay's. Someone can run in to get the food while another person wait in the car. I highly recommend ordering food in advance since there is no place to dine in. And the wait can be long when they are busy. They have daily specials. I will be coming back to try other items.

Personal size pizza with pepperoni.

Pops was in the mood for pizza but wanted moms n pops pizza spot. I called the on Yelp and decided to give this spot a try. The young lady "Lucy" answered the phone and was really nice after letting her looking for personal size pizza for my dad and suggested the six slices with pepperoni. Also explained my dad is diabetic with cancer which they had unsweetened tea and can put in the fridge will be nice n cold when i picked up. She said come by it will be ready in 20 minutes after arriving Lucy was so nice so customer friendly the spot has few tables with TV's and had the Dodgers game on yay. Well the real test pops are two slices and said that was done good pizza . Definitely give this spot a try the staff is awesome.

This not Detroit style crust.  Just a square pizza labeled Detroit style.  If you've had one you know this isn't right

I'll make this short and sweet. We walked by this place and decided to try it. Pizza was mediocre. We got a jumbo with mushrooms and onion and a large spicy Detroit style. The jumbo had barely any toppings. There were at least 3 pieces that had no topping at all. 2nd the "Detroit style" was not a Detroit style. It was a normal square pizza. Nothing at all like a Detroit style.

Thanks for the burnt pizza. I shouldve checked on this before i left the place. The pizza tastes burnt also

Jumbo Supreme Pizza...yum!!
Max H.

Jay's Pizza is the best value in Monterey Park, especially their Wednesday and Sunday Jumbo (18") specials -- get a Supreme for just $18 + tax or a 1-topping for $12 + tax. They are also well-known for their massive 28" pies. Online ordering is the most convenient, and allows scheduling precise pickup times in 10-minute increments. The only parking is curbside, is extremely limited, and can be problematic at busy times or on days when there are special events (such as today's FIFA Final Match). But definitely worth the effort.

Large pizza
Penny P.

What's up: Was scrolling through UberEATS to figure out what to grab for dinner and saw that Jay's Pizza had a bogo deal on their pizza. Figured it was a good reason to try them out. Parking: Street parking on the busy Garfield Ave. They have a green curbed portion right in front of their store for pick up but can be hit or miss. Environment: I placed my order online and had a short wait when I arrived at the store. The pizzas came out hot! Plates, cheese, and peppers are provided on request. Staff members were friendly. I gave them my name, grabbed the pizzas, and was off. Fast and simple! What was ordered: - Large Pizza with Sausage (yum) Yay/Nay/Meh: Yay. Not only was the pizza good, the bogo deal made it even more awesome. Plenty of pizza for dinner and more. Depending on how busy the area is, you might need to walk a bit for parking. Credit cards are accepted.

This is how they make the pizza in jay's pizza

The pizza from that place is it's horrible. The pizza it's always burn from the bottom. We has order 3 pizzas in three times and he was disgusting to know that the guy they had working in the back doesn't even know how to make pizza cause he was putting the pallet of pizza on the floor in picking up the pizza with the same dirty hands Disgusting would not recommend it to anybody.

Pepperoni and sausage.
Jeffrey D.

If you're living in or just passing through the northern side of Montebello to visit the Top Golf then Jay's HAS TO be the spot you hit for pizza! I'm a long time patron whether they know it or not. I live in the area and have returned to, and recommended Jay's countless times. My favorite thing about their pizza is quite honestly the dough they use for the crust. It's soft, tastes like fresh baked bread and is irresistibly dippable in whatever sauce you get. Oh, and there's of course the toppings that go on the crust! The cheese? Sharp and stretchy. It's firm and melty. The toppings are always good, I've had just about everything they offer and have never had anything bad. The wings they offer are on the bigger side and have always been perfectly coated and cooked. I've never had dry or skimpy wings from Jay's. Their service is impeccable and they always have a good attitude. Their dining area is warm and spacious. They have TV's. Parking is street parking and there's usually plenty of space to park in the front. I will continue to eat here and recommend it to friends and family.

Support local small business, reasonable prices, good taste & flavors, large portions. Large 1 topping, 12 wings 2 different flavors & a side for $35 w tax. Can't beat that!

Pepperoni and mushrooms with wings
Carlos L.

Always fresh, always delicious. Since it's Red Devils days, this place hasn't disappoint.

Sunnie M.

Love to support a local small business. Pizza was hot and super fresh out of the oven. Ingredients taste simple and high quality. The wings were delicious, generously coated in sauce.

Sausage and mushroom. Skimpy on the toppings and it was all in the center. The part near the crust didn't have anything on it.

Military discount olive oil instead of red sauce?

How many slices do the jumbo and monster sizes have?

I would say jumbo had 14 slices, so the monster has 28 slices. Just guessing.

How many slices is the Monster pizza? And how many people do you think 1 feeds?

After having this place's fried chicken wings, I have not been able to have chicken wings anywhere…read moreelse. What's even crazier is that I've been a diehard bone-in/traditional wings believer, but bb.q Chicken's boneless wings converted me to the dark side. In fact, I will shamelessly admit that I only ever order their boneless wings here after having tried them. Unlike other places' boneless wings, which use dry white meat (an absolute abomination IMHO), bb.q Chicken uses actual dark meat and are actual "boneless wings." The Cheesling flavor is to die for. Get the limited time Buldak Cheesling flavor for a special spicy kick. If you want an alcoholic drink with your chicken, I suggest sticking with beer or bottled soju. Their soju cocktails are pretty weak and have a strange pre-mixed flavor to them.

As a local customer who has frequented Bb.q many times (almost weekly in the early days) with great…read moresatisfaction, today I am very disappointed. 1st one of the draws is the late night eats option, I mean even the popularity increased for Bb.q because it was featured in a kdrama as being a late night chicken spot. So to have your employee give me a whole speech at 8:45 about when you close the kitchen and how long I have to eat, is unacceptable, lack of customer service. And then denying service to 4 people at 9:08pm, also doesn't make for good ambiance or service. I paid $60 for 2 people to share a rice bowl and small batch of wings; what would those 4 people have ordered $$$? *change your hours if your trying to close early 2nd the wings have really reduced in quality and flavor, did you degrade or change in quality of chicken; or is that your not following the same recipe? And lastly, and this change I can sympathize with, but I very much enjoyed the yellow danmuji radishes in the bulgogi bowl, so eff those people who asked you to take them out; causing you to decide to no longer include them

In Alhambra, Chicken Bun Bun took advantage of the hype, offering chicken fried in a traditional Taiwanese spice blend. CBB is located smack-dab in central Main St, Alhambra. The flat, narrow storefront and tinted windows belie a surprisingly spacious interior. Marbled tables and mid-century modern upholstered chairs are pressed to half-booth around the perimeter. Framed CBB T-shirts and oversized canvases depicting ingredients deck the white plaster walls. The kitchen is obscured by mustard-yellow subway tile and a pyramid of takeout boxes. Public pop radio and the aroma of fried chicken fill the room. I visited for weekend lunch, and takeout/delivery customers outnumbered dine-in. I opted for a Crispy Chicken On Bun, and my order was prepared in 10 minutes. The chicken patty was reasonably hearty and appropriately crispy, overflowing out of the buttery bun. Yet, the savory-forward sando left me wanting. Specifically, it was missing a tangy oomph; the sliced pickles didn't cut it. Frankly, even just a packet of In-N-Out sauce would balance out this sandwich. The a la carte chicken sandwich was $12 for a filling lunch. CBB's sandwiches fall somewhere on the spectrum between Popeye's and Howlin' Ray's (and, of course, without the outrageous queue). The foundation is solid, but the overall flavor is dull. I could envision returning for a quick lunch, but only if I have some type of sauce to spice up my sando.

I was interested in this place because I really miss KFC in China. The menu outside looks like it…read morewas copy-pasted from a Chinese McDonald's or KFC, with even the same menu item names in Chinese, like the McSpicy and New Orleans chicken sandwich. I've seen people describe restaurants as "no-frills," but this place takes it to the next level. The tiny "dining room," if you can call it that, has a single table with 4 chairs, and there is a standing table by the window with a single stool. There is a tablet where you can order and parts of the "dining room" are used for storing restaurant supplies like utensils, and there are two industrial refrigerators full of chicken marinating. At least there's air conditioning. This place is primarily a takeout operation, and my friend and I were the first two dine-in customers today. The parking lot is a bit hidden in the back and is quite tiny, but again, we were the only dine-in customers. The old lady (seemingly the owner's mom) was very sweet and had me use the bathroom by going through the kitchen. You can see the whole operation, I guess. Despite the very... utilitarian dining room and somewhat cumbersome layout,, the food was excellent! Among all the different Chinese KFC clones that have been opening up the past few years, this is the closest to a Chinese KFC chicken sandwich. The chicken filet was thick, crispy, and juicy, and the bun was toasted to perfection. The owner even gave us some fries on the house, which were impressively crispy without being hard - almost as if they were fried in tallow. They probably were, but I'm not sure and forgot to ask. The egg tart almost had the taste of the KFC's authentic Macau egg tarts (they bought the OG recipe, so) but lacked sweetness. The texture was on point but even as an Asian, it was not sweet enough. Compared to Macho Burger, at $10.99, you get an additional can of Pepsi and an egg tart for $1 compared to just the chicken sandwich at Macho Burger for $10. Pretty good value. Amusingly, we were provided plastic gloves, the type you would often get at fried chicken places in China, despite ordering sandwiches. As my friend and I were enjoying our lunch, there were several takeout orders and orders picked up by delivery drivers. It seems that this place is fairly popular despite the lack of dine-in customers. I'll probably get my next order to go as well.

Pros: I stopped by to get a burger and as I was about to place my order on the kiosk the employee…read moretold me he would take my order. I wanted to use my card but he said it's not working so I had to pay cash. I only ordered the Spicy Chicken sandwich as he told me that was the most popular item. I received my sandwich and began to eat it at one of the few indoor tables. This sandwich is one of the best I have ever had, it was truly delicious and at 10 bucks not too bad. Cons: The interior needs a revamp as it is not appealing at all and makes you want to turn around and leave.

Consistent quality for 10 years and counting…read more The Boat House on Valley Blvd in Alhambra has been around for years, and the quality and flavor have stayed consistent the entire 10 years I've been coming. I 100% recommend it as your quick, go-to seafood boil in a bag. My order never changes: the 1 pound of shrimp, peeled and headless, with the house special sauce at spicy, plus corn, potatoes, and rice on the side. They also have a small selection of beer on draft and in bottles, with a little something for everyone. It's a casual spot with a nautical theme. The wood walls are covered in graffiti and tagging, which is typical of a seafood boil place and never gets in the way of your meal. It is what it is, and if you've been coming as long as I have, it's part of the charm. Sports are usually playing on the TVs, and nothing about the atmosphere is fancy. The parking lot isn't big, but it's convenient, and the service is quick. If you're a party of two, you can easily get in and out, though it's also a fine place to hang out. It's also good for large groups. They have space to accommodate. If you want a fast, no-fuss seafood boil in a bag with quality food, this is the place.

She went above and beyond for her customers when in my opinion she shouldn't have and many others wouldn't have,she deserves a raise!!! Overall 1000/10 If you're looking for amazing food definitely stop by.
