Legendary Pastrami?- Solid but not Hall of Fame...
Scott W.

Your favorite Yelp correspondent has been known to go on fortnight-long runs where I'll order heavily from one type of food- It might be ten days of Thai, where I'm favoring Siamese fare four nights; perhaps a quartet of Mediterranean cuisine orders... But lately, over the past ten days I've been consuming pastrami like, well, Joey Chestnut demolishes hot dogs every July 4th. Last night's pastrami sando from Legends marks my fourth similar order in the past eight night's. I paired it with a small fries, which are enough to share. Not gonna bother littering this review w/ extraneous pics of Legends '50s style Americana design- Everyone else snaps plenty of those... So was Legends up to their emulatable name? Mehhhh, quite solid...but not necessarily Hall of Fame caliber. The meat is plentiful, piled 2.5" high on the bread smeared w/ yellow mustard. But the flavor profile of the 'Strami is rather spartan- No palette fireworks that you experience w/ famous pastrami sandos churned out by Brent's Deli (Northridge), Katz (NYC), etc. In the vast ranking of Glendora-adjacent Pastrami Sando sellers, I'd rank em: 1.) EAT Fantastic, Arcadia- Lean, well seasoned, bread pairs perfectly. A flavorful home run! 2.) The Hat, Glendora. This IS their moneymaker, after all... 3.) Legends, Glendora. Looks like I must've ordered the WDT (Wrong Damn Thing)... 4.) Route 66 Subs, Glendora. The rookie on the list, Your correspondent might give them a pass if a future cold sando outpaces what this was- A disappointment.

BLT & AVOCADO SANDWICH

I love Legends, I've been coming here forever, giant menu, lots of options, classic diner vibes! I recommend a cheeseburger, blta, or chicken strips.

When you walk in, it feels like you're taking back in time it's a 50th diner vibe a wide space where you could bring Family or you can go there on a date. We ordered their turkey burger, along with fries and fried zucchini, the meal was delicious. The turkey burger was seasoned very nicely. The service also was very nice. Your greeted once you walk in the restrooms are also clean and they have an additional ice cream bar where you can get ice cream cones floats, banana splits, etc..

Legends is cool , nice old school burger joint , breakfast, lunch , and dinner . This one is pretty big , maybe the biggest one I've been too or send like it . Good food and service . Good spot for a burger and fries , and a shake , or chili cheese fries and the pastrami looks good too !

Small neopolitan shake.
Patty L.

First time trying this place out and we ordered to go. Youll see the menu gives plenty of options, ranging from breakfast to lunch. Walking in, the first thing you'll note is the decor, bright visuals (signs and art) all around that make it whimsical. Lots of parking to go with the spacious dining area. Cashiers were attentive to who walked in. We did ask if ranch was provided in order to-go order and told it'll cost extra (.55 cents). Which was fine, but then we saw that there was already 4 ranch portion cups included in our bags, once we started eating. So....we didnt need them and could have just been told it was already in there. Minor oversight. On to the food! Its diner food and you get what you expect, something greasy and filling. I got the pastrami melt sandwich which had a nice crunch from the pickles and tangy mustard to go with the salty pastrami. The jalapeño burger was alright. Jalapeño was grilled, split in half, and place on each side. Expected it to either be crunchier or fresh...and more. The chili cheese fries serving was huge and it comes doused with cheese. Can't even see the fries til you dig in. So if you get a large one, you'll have leftovers. My favorite was the neopolitan shake that was made with real icecream and was deliciously smooth. And the small version comes with quite a lot.

BLT, hold the T! Packed with bacon and the crispy fries with the seasoned salt are everything a growing boy needs!
Jeff W.

I've been coming here since it opened around 2007? I was surprised I had not reviewed it. Literally everything here is good. The BLTs are packed with bacon. The french fries have great seasoned salt on them. The onion rings are addictive. The taquitos have great shredded beef in them and the tortilla chips are fresh fried. The burgers are more common like you get it at a Greek hamburger stand. My friends tell me the breakfast burritos are worth driving for themselves! Another thing that sets this place apart from pretty much anywhere else is the decor and the high ceilings and the ice cream parlor. There is memorabilia all over the place: embedded into the walls, freestanding on the floor, hanging from the ceilings, and a terrific surf mural on one of the walls. It is really quite spectacular and makes this place special. Glendora is lucky to have it.

chicken strips with fries
Stephanie S.

My girls dance team has come to this location after their spring competitions for years. The service has always been great and i can't think of a time the orders have ever been wrong (but i'm sure it happens) The food selection is your classic diner experience choices along with some different menu options like nacho and tacos. My whole family loves all the classic hollywood pictures throughout the inside of the diner. Needless to say, we everything about Legends!

Chili Cheese Fries
Jay O.

This place has a cool chill vibe, brings you to the 50's with the decorative items! Super cool! We had eaten other items but I forgot to take photos (next time) Check this spot out fast and friendly service from the employees.

JK L.

Brought my granddaughter and grandson for lunch. We love this diner. They have really good burgers. We also like their onion rings and fried mushrooms. They want to dine here again so they can some of the other menu items.

See all

Reviews are mixed. Many highlight the retro diner ambiance, food variety and generous portions, and note that portions are large and shareable. Most praise the service, though some report mixed service.

While the food is decent, the prices are excessive for what you receive. Nonetheless, the classic diner ambiance makes dining in worthwhile.

My five-star rating for this restaurant is not solely based on the complimentary items. It is primarily due to the outstanding tenderness and juiciness of the beef brisket, pulled pork, turkey, and sausages. The potato salad, baked beans, and corn on the cob were also excellent accompaniments. While the buns were fresh, I found the cornbread to be a little dry. Nevertheless, I found everything to be delicious overall. I certainly plan on returning.

I decided to go with the station tray! Of course, I went with the beef brisket and you have a choice of two sides. The sides are shown like cafeteria style which I like so I can see what is offer. The lady helping us also let me try before I pick. I ended up going with their mac and cheese and green beans. I love their mac and cheese! Its rich and creamy and very good. Their brisket was good. A bit dry in certain pieces. The tray also comes with pickles, pickled onions, and slider rolls. I end up making a couple of brisket slider and they were great. They do offer ordering the meats by the pounds and you can order their sides in different sizes containers. Overall, great place for BBQ if you're in the area.

Our server took over 10 minutes just to greet us, and the wait for our food was even worse. Charging $15.95 for a BLTA and then charging extra for tomato is already ridiculous -- only for them to come back another 10 minutes later to tell me they were out of multiple items anyway. Once the food finally arrived, the server never checked on us again. We had to flag someone down ourselves just to get the check. I didn't catch her name because she barely introduced herself in the first place. Do yourself a favor and avoid this place on a Saturday afternoon. The service was awful, the staff seemed uninterested, and the food definitely wasn't worth the price.
