    [[HIGHLIGHT]]This place was renovated recently and looks beautiful and so welcoming inside.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The food was very good where we even asked for seconds. The staff is very attentive and personable. We will be coming back!

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]Everything inside was nice and upgraded.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Very clean.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Food was bomb & they were very fast as well didn't take much to get our food. For drinks we had a coke, horchata and michelada overall we paid around $80/90 can't remember.

    Aguachiles naturales!!

    I ate a burrito mojado. I have not yet had something better than Panchi's restaurant! The wet burrito is exceptional and the aguachiles. El burritos mojado esta chingon!! Y no se diga los aguachiles! Tienen que probarlo!

    I need to start off by saying THIS IS PLACE IS UNDER NEW OWNERSHIP as of 2024, disregard old yelp reviews!!! New place is called Panchi's Restaurant!!! The change this place much needed, if you're in paramount or surrounding areas I encourage you to come try their delicious food! If you're familiar with Sinaloa style recipes then you will absolutely love it! It feels like you're eating at home. All food is always fresh, and same great taste. The menu has so many variations you can't go wrong with any! Awesome service by staff & great family style ambiance. Restaurant is currently getting a revamp but they are still open for business.

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]Amazing food, amazing service and it is well kept and very clean.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] They took my order right away and the food was on my table quickly, I devoured the food because of the amazing taste, the servers were constantly checking up on me and making sure I was okay and offering help

    Hot Salsa is located on Garfield and Rosecrans in the City of Paramount. Next door to Arco and near many businesses. Clean and beautiful inside and out, excellent service, delicious tacos, reasonable prices. Parking can be a pain at certain times. Cost efficient place to take a date or to come eat after work. A diamond in the rough you should not overlook.

    Chile relleno combo
    Beatriz G.

    Very hidden place . But food is really good and big portion is served . I had the Chile relleno combo. Came with 2 chicken enchiladas, rice,beans , and salad.

    I would usually buy a burger and fries for lunch. Carne asada tacos are also good. Consistency is maybe not the strongest here though.

    I came during lunch time and it was packed. The host was so sweet and handed us some menus to look…read moreover while we waited for our entire party to arrive. Once we were ready she had our table already prepared. We have to order inside first before you can be seated. Once seated our food came out not too long after. Everything looked and tasted delicious! We ordered the chilaquiles verde, short rib omelette, tropical pancakes (seasonal), and the mango curd french toast (seasonal). The chilaquiles verde was savory and tangy. It wasn't soggy at all and definitely one of my favorite dishes. The short rib omelette was savory but didn't give me any wow factor compared to the other dishes I ordered. The tropical pancakes were so pretty. I only tried a piece of it without the syrup which I think was a mistake because the kumquat syrup was my friend's favorite. I definitely need to try it again with the syrup. Best for last, mango curd French toast was my favorite! I fell in love with sweetness and tanginess of the mango curd. The French toast was soft and you can taste the butter. I wish it was a main menu item. I'll definitely be sad to see it go. They have lots of seating inside and outside.

I was curious about the level of accessibility and clearer directions on where to stand when the line passes the framing of the restaurant. But Great Downey location! Diversity score 1-5: 1.5 As a Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion in the workplace professional, in order to garner financial success of any business is to be intentional about representation in your business. Money is green and people of all backgrounds have access to it. In an effort to reach a larger marketplace, your staffing is the first step towards reaching financial goals and attracting more business. Diversity is not just about color but it also includes accessibility for the handicapped community, Braille menus, and possibly more signage that displays the type of service a customer can expect. Please contact me for consultation services. Service/Ambiance/Environment: The service is where my issue lies. I did appreciate that as we were waiting in line to enter, we were given menus to assist in deciding what we wanted before we reached the inside. The cashiers were both super nice and even offered a taste of the Rose' slushy which was phenomenal. When ordering at the register, the sweet service was continued and we chose where to sit. It was bright and busy inside and we sat right in front of the expo station. I was truly enjoying the environment and it had me reminiscing of my brunch days in New York City. My guest and I were chatting and enjoying our Mimosa's and then my guests food arrives first. Not that it matters but in service certain things do and the female presenting person SHOULD always receive their food first. That was a surprise to me but I didn't read into as I expected my dish to arrive right behind. It did not. My guest and I continued to chat and sip until 20 mins later, as I'm watching dishes leave the expo station, did I say "where is my food?" The young server at the expo turned and rolled their eyes and then finally gave me my food. This was a buzz kill. I only went down a rabbit hole about it until I noticed I was the only Black person present. First, why would it ever been ok to not have dishes arriving to tables separately without saying "ma'am we're a little behind.." or to my guest "do you mind if we hold your dish a bit so we can make sure the food arrives together?" Being a previous server in high pace restaurants, communication, apologies, and ensuring perfect service is the goal. Poached is not a store front or even a little diner type of place. It's a casual, upbeat, bright breakfast/brunch spot. And yes, on busy days things happen but to not offer a reason, or apology, and giving the customer attitude is unacceptable. Food: The description of the food is well written. The prices are reasonable. I ordered the short rib omelette with whole grain toast and house potatoes. When I Finally received my food it looked great and I was eager to dig in. A first bite of the omelette I was sadly underwhelmed. The seasoning left much to be desired and it seamed to be more of a birria short rib flavor and I thought I chose the dish based on being excited about the combination of meat and cheese (which was barely there). I enjoyed the bread and potatoes more than the omelette. Go again score 1-5: 2 I really think this restaurant and it's operation needs some massaging, the cooks need to be trained, and a REAL chef needs to help improve the quality and taste of the food.

I have never seen this before which I didn't really like because I didn't see anything about a gratuity percentage for parties larger than 4 or 6. We still paid the bill in full including the tip but we still left unsure of it. Update: I was contacted by the owner and after the issue with the waiter adding his own tip, I was refunded that money back. Thank you for correcting this and hopefully it does not happen to others. We will definitely come again.

I woke up late today after…read morea week of riding every rollercoaster in Southern California (I'm on vacation anyways ), and I didn't want to deal with a long wait for brunch or settle for a typical corporate diner. I just wanted a place that hit the right spot... then I ran into Aragón House Cafe. Nestled away on the streets of Bellflower, this place is the kind of local treasure you can't help but fall in love with. From the moment you sit down and open the menu, deciding what to get becomes a delightful challenge. As the servers pass by with dishes for neighboring tables, every plate looks and smells so incredible that you'll want to order one of everything. Once you make your choice, the food comes out surprisingly fast--piping hot, bursting with flavor, and smelling so good you just want to devour it right on the spot. Having been open for just a year and a half, Aragón House Cafe is already a standout. It has all the makings of one of those hidden LA gems you eventually see highlighted on local food documentaries--or promoted all over social media by influencers (which I'm not, nor do I want to be!). Don't sleep on this place; give it a try before everyone else finds out!

It was such a thoughtful gesture that made our celebration even more special. The team is always welcoming, friendly, and makes you feel like family.

I'd think, "There's a spot in my own neighborhood I can eat at without driving to Downey or Downtown LA." But for some reason it was never my first thought. I think it's because when I'm going out to eat, I usually want to escape my own area. Today I finally gave it a try, and I was sincerely impressed. I walked in and was greeted right away. I asked a few questions about the menu and requested a substitute, and I didn't get any weird looks or pushback, which honestly happens more often than you'd think in 2026. The walls had beautiful artwork, and my server, Kevin, was fantastic. He checked in every few minutes to make sure I had everything I needed, and it felt genuine, not like he was just going through the motions for a tip or a paycheck. You can tell the difference. I ordered the horchata French toast with fresh fruit and a lavender latte, and the presentation was next level, the kind of plating you'd expect in Beverly Hills, Century City, or parts of Polanco, Mexico. It was beautiful, the food was excellent, and I was taken care of every step of the way. I'm writing this review because this place deserves to be seen and deserves to keep growing. I'm not compensated in any way, shape, or form, this comes straight from the heart. If you've been sleeping on this place, give it a try. It's not in the flashiest part of LA, and I'm okay with that since I live in the area, but once you step inside, you're transported somewhere else entirely. Don't sleep on this place. Give them a shot and you'll find yourself coming back sooner than you expected.
