They still haven't found the suspects. Background On Visit: Drove by this place many times. Last month, I finally decided to patronize the shop. Credit Cards: They're accepted. There's a surcharge. Visitation Rights: 1 time, but I can see myself come many more. Location/Parking: Located on the NW corner of Mayflower and Duarte. Parking can be found in a shared lot. Ambiance/Decor: Small little shop with minimal furnishings in the inside and two communal tables outside to enjoy your food. Service: Service was good. Troy and the cook was very nice, friendly, and knowledgeable about the shop. Food came out at a decent time. Food Of Choice: I got the #2 Dbl Cheeseburger combo with no salt on the veggies and fries. Thought the burger was very good. Very impressed that the bun to patty ratio was 1 - 1 balanced. All the other ingredients (tomatoes, lettuce, and sauce) made the burger very tasty. Note: If you want a drink refill, It would cost a dollar. Burger Basket For Thought: Would love to come back to try their pastrami burger.

It's been a while since I stopped by so for Friday dinner, I picked up several items: double…read morecheeseburger with fries, fish and chips, steak sandwich, and onion rings. Tasted just as good as before, even with the change in ownership. Everything tasted freshly made, which I can see when I went in person to order and waited. What really surprised me was how lean and tender the steak was in the $12 steak sandwich. No fat or tendon in sight. The steak sandwich will definitely go on my list of go-to orders. Burger Basket takes credit card but do charge a 50 cent fee. I just pay in cash. It's in a plaza with limited parking spots in a couple of I door and outdoor seats so most people order to go.

This was once upon a time the best pizza place in Monrovia, which makes this experience especially…read moredisappointing. I ordered two pizzas as usual: a pepperoni with extra sauce, well done, and a jalapeño pepperoni with extra sauce, well done. Neither was prepared correctly. I contacted the store and was offered a remake, but only if I drove back to pick it up. There was no option for redelivery, and the interaction felt dismissive rather than helpful. As a long-time customer since opening, I'm disappointed by the decline in both quality and service. I hope ownership addresses these issues, as there are many other pizza options in Monrovia. Based on this experience, I won't be returning.

The flavor is off the charts, from the beans to the eggs, everything is seasoned perfectly. I'm generally a bacon or chorizo guy, but their carne asada has converted me. I recommend calling a head, because their food is prepared freshly and can take 10-15 minutes, but the wait is well worth it. I've enjoyed breakfast burritos from San Diego to San Fran, all through North Texas, New Mexico, and Arizona, and from TJ to Tulum (and a ton of places in between), and I put Los Chiles Locos up at the top. Their salsas deserve a mention of their own, my favorite is the habanero, a great chile flavor with a heat that keeps building until your lips are tingling, your mouth is watering, and you are panting before those final bites. They deserve over 4 stars for sure, not sure what reviews are polluting their overall rating.

There's a 50 cent additional fee for Card Payments.) I arrived at Le Donuts (Duarte) on Tuesday (around 11:42AM). Parking is adequate. The lot had limited parking spaces, but I easily found a spot. Staff is respectful and alert. Staff quickly helped me, and Staff would brightly smile towards regulars. I noticed a family wave and thank Staff, and Staff smiled back in return. On ambiance, Le Donuts (Duarte) is clean and comfortable. I appreciated the air conditioning; it's very well-ventilated. And the spot felt clean and maintained. There's also four interior tables. The location didn't feel cramped; rather, it felt comfortable. I also liked the bottle of hand sanitizer for customers. Overall, I had a pleasant experience at Le Donuts (Duarte). The donuts are affordable and tasty. I left with a small smile. 4.7 out of 5

I love the idea of Mexican Food Express! We stopped by very…read morehungry for a late lunch and ordered some plates from the ready to go food items. Each plate came with a side of rice and beans and tortillas. The portions were generous and everything tasted great with a very mild spice level, a bit salty for my taste but good nonetheless and optional salsa available on the side. I was curious to try their menudo, but they ran out of it as well as most of the tamales by the time we arrived. I ended up getting a couple cheese and a chicken tamal just to try them out and they were just ok (a bit dry for my liking). They also had fish and shrimp ceviche ready to order and a variety of burritos and tacos made to order with choice of meats or option to mix from the dishes on display (ex. chile relleno burrito with asada, etc). There is no table service, you order at the front (similar to when you order Chinese) and they have a few booth style tables to enjoy your meal or take to go. The staff was friendly and helpful at helping to decide on which dishes to choose from. The restaurant is attached to the little bakery next door which has some great Mexican pastries, masa for tamales or tortillas, cheese and other sweets. They are also attached to the small Mexican market which is a separate business but are all accessible through the shared entrances. There is a single small restroom towards the back of the restaurant and shared parking lot.

My only complaint is the wait time. Even when I call my order in 30-40 minutes ahead of time, I still end up waiting after I arrive. It seems like they could improve their order management, especially for phone orders. Overall, the food is great, but the long wait times keep this place from being a 5-star experience. Hopefully they can improve the speed because the sandwiches are definitely worth it.
