We tried the soup here yesterday along with the cookies. We loved it so much we came back for breakfast. We had the eggs Benedict and pancakes and loved them too. We found our next go to breakfast!!!! Excellent service!

I had a good experience at Kara's Korner (Glendora). I ordered the Chicken Fried Steak ($14.99). It includes two eggs (selected scrambled), hash browns, and pancakes. The meal is affordable, filling, and satisfying. I left full. I arrived at Kara's Korner (Glendora) on Wednesday (around 7:25AM). Parking is convenient & easy since it's located at Glendora Village. There's plentiful public parking. Staff is busy, polite, and hardworking. It's packed with customers!! The location is a community hotspot. It took several minutes to be seated and checked upon; however, the food arrived quickly once ordered. My meal took seven minutes and 19 seconds. Fast! (Quick Note: When finished with your meal, Staff places a written paper bill. Then, customers must walk to the front counter with the slip to pay.) As mentioned, I ordered the Chicken Fried Steak & Eggs ($14.99). The food arrived splattered and disheveled. Using my napkin, I was able to clean up the plate; however, the tableware appeared worn down with age. I liked the Chicken Fried Steak. Its country gravy came thick and lightly peppered. The patty is thick with a crisp crust and a soft middle; it's lightly seasoned. I especially liked the hash browns because they're successfully crisp and fresh; too many other diners fail at hash browns. Unfortunately, the scrambled eggs tasted rubbery, dry, and bland. These unpleasant eggs are worse than microwaved eggs from McDonalds. Fortunately, the pancakes are fluffy and clean. By itself, it's bland; however, the melted butter adds a rich, salty flavor. I avoided the syrup since it tasted watered down. On ambiance, Kara's Korner (Glendora) is charming and comfortable. The location is well-maintained despite its old furniture. It's very clean and festive. There's no music; however, the muted flat screen TV plays the news with English captions. There's also a gender neutral restroom in the back. The vibrant colors are attractive and eye-catching. There's also plenty of indoor and outdoor seating. Overall, I had a good experience at Kara's Korner (Glendora). It's a beautiful hidden gem that's swarming with happy locals. The prices are very competitive; the food is prepared well; and the location is comfortable. If nearby, this is an easy recommendation. 4.7 out of 5

Royal Cookie
Ann A.

I thought I wrote a review for Kara's Korner last year. It was an excellent experience then, and it remains so. When my daughter suggested we meet at this establishment after the Glendora parade, I was particularly eager to purchase their cookies. While the food here is generally good, their Royal Cookie is truly unique. We attempted to discern the ingredients, but I believe there's more to them than just chocolate chips, coconut, and macadamia nuts. While waiting to be seated, I observed the person ahead of me who had come solely to purchase their bread. I am very pleased that this location is dog-friendly. Our party consisted of six people and three dogs. Five individuals ordered Kara's Special. I chose to try their Chicken Fried Steak and Eggs, influenced by previous Yelp reviews. We were all quite satisfied with our selections.

Bacon and eggs
Mark L.

Popped in for breakfast with my brother on a Tuesday morning. Four strips of bacon, two eggs, toast, and the most delicious potatoes. Incredible service and some of the best coffee I've ever had. Really nothing much else to say. If you're looking for a great breakfast spot, this is a spot! Thank you to the wonderful staff for taking care of me and my brother.

Matzo-ball soup and homemade chips...can't go wrong!
Sam H.

This is a great family run restaurant that gives a lot to the community, especially to the Veterans. If you don't want to wait for a table, then arrive ahead of the meal hour, breakfast, lunch or dinner. For example, for dinner, I show up at 4pm. The lasagna is made on site and too much to eat there...you'll be taking half of it home. All the Deli sandwiches are excellent. I often get the Matzo-ball soup. They make there potato chips there, as well...hot and crunchy.

Lean Corned Beef
Pawnee Rick T.

You know you've found a great eating place when you arrive for a weekday (Wednesday) lunch at around 11:30 and the place is packed. Kara's Korner is definitely such a place, and I'm a little embarrassed that I had never heard of this wonderful little deli/restaurant sooner. The menu is extensive with loads of choices for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, but I stopped by for one of their deli sandwiches after seeing a recommendation for Kara's on a local Facebook page. I had a San Dimas speciality sandwich (rare roast beef, turkey, etc.), and it was HUGE and fantastic. My wife opted for a modest corned beef sandwich, which was also lean and tasty, as well. Despite both of us being stuffed (with portions of our sandwiches already boxed to-go), we couldn't resist splitting a slice of carrot cake, and it was the perfect capper to our awesome inaugural dining adventure. The restaurant dining area is small but neat - especially in light of the breakfast-through-lunch crowd traffic that appears to keep the tables occupied non-stop. There is also some outside seating available as an option. The servers are constantly on the move, but still manage to stop by to ensure drinks are refilled and everything is to your satisfaction. I'll definitely be back to sample more of their deli sandwiches. Whether craving something from the deli OR a full meal, there's something at Kara's for you, too.

Menu

What a delicious and affordable spot! Came for brunch around 10 am and didn't have to wait which is awesome for a brunch spot. The menu is extensive with many items on the menu but the first thing I noticed was everything was very reasonably priced. An average dish is about $9-$12 which is very much affordable now a days. I got these items. Chicken Soup with Matzo ball - Never heard of a Matzo ball but it was delicious. It's like some sort of carb and the chicken soup was good too. Good appetizer. (4.5/5) Kylie's Stuffed French Toast - They let you choose from many different fruits but we got strawberry and banana mix. Its delicious. Tons of whipped cream but packed with flavors. It's $8.99, very affordable. (4.5/5) Kara's Favorite Omelette - This was delicious. Great mix of ingredients and cooked well. Got it with hash browns and they were crispy delicious. Winner. (4.5/5) Biscuits and Gravy - A classic dish. I got half a portion which is really cool that they let you do that. For like $4, I enjoyed this as a side. (4/5) So it's not like the best tasting brunch I've had but for the price I absolutely loved what you got in terms of value and flavors. I spent a total of $34 for what I think is a good amount of food for two people. Service was very attentive and I loved that we didn't have to wait more than 1 minute to get seated. They also accept credit card if you're uncertain due to their older style of writing down your order. Would love to come back to try out more items on the menu. Parking - They have a lot in the back that is free.

Spaghetti
R T.

Heard about this restaurant and decided to finally try it. Ambiance is vintage coffee shop. Decorated for Easter cutely. We're seated immediately in a small green booth. Service was fast and welcoming. We ordered and the tortilla soup came out very fast. It was very good. Then the spaghetti and Cobb salad came. Spaghetti was ok and the meatballs were good. The chicken Cobb salad was delicious. We will have to go back to try some more dishes. Their menu is extensive and they serve breakfast all day. I saw people ordering breakfast for dinner. It looked good. I'll definitely be back.

My son and I came by to pick up some food and we decided to get something new. We've already tried…read morethe broasted chicken, pizzas, and desserts, now it was time to try their sandos. I got the turkey breast sandwich and he got the hot pastrami sandwich. Both sandwiches were big! They were chock full of meat and were so good. You get a choice of bread (wheat, rye, sourdough, squaw, or Italian) and I got the squaw bread for the turkey sandwich. Once again Old World Deli knocked it out of the park and made my belly happy.

It was nice that our family's next generation found Old World Deli "on their own". LOL…read more The "elders" come for their cannolis and sandwiches; the younger set come for a sit down to devour the "comfort food" consisting of pasta and cheesy bread. Recently, we learned about their Thursday specials: entrees come with a salad and drink. It came out to be about $20 per person. Not bad for a sit down with the family. It's definitely a better experience than Panera. At least at Old World, the servers bring out the generous portions with plates and utensils to the table, timely. The dining room is spacious and their restrooms are always well maintained. The only downside is the parking. It may be difficult to find close parking during the business hours of the adjoining businesses. Otherwise, it's a good place for an informal meal.
