Mom and Pop spot I've been coming to for over a decade. Their prices are very fair. They accept debit/credit cards. I also appreciate that there's a 5% tipping option. It's a causal spot with three tables and a counter. Most orders here are to go. I will continue to come. I recommend the Hawallano. It's blended ice with shredded coconut, pineapple chunks, and condensed milk. It's my go to drink. read more

Why even have a bell at the front if you're gonna ignore it? Couldn't even be bothered to check who rang it. I understood that the man was probably working on something in the back, so I only rang it once, but when he came out, he just ignored me. Gave me a dirty look too. I know they always took their time on every order, but I liked the mocha so I would deal with it. Never again. I'll never come here again. read more

The extra fine ice makes it easy to enjoy. The service was super friendly and the owners really out extra effort to make their place feel cozy. The raspados are very good and I gladly travel 45 mins to this place because that's how great they are. Español: el hielo fino hace que se disfruten más los raspados. Los dueños crearon un ambiente ameno. Los raspados son muy buenos y me gusta visitar este local aunque me tome 45 minutos el viaje. Así están de buenos. read more

I got the Chamango it was just geeky spicy,salty, and the mango was not by them I can taste the syrup. I've tried other places in El Monte that make delicious Chamangos this is definitely the worst. I threw it away after I took this picture. Save your money they don't make their mango syrups. Plus the guy who helped me he looked unhappy. read more

I've been coming to La Hormiguita for a couple of years now. Over the years, the food and service have sadly been decreasing in quality. Even if you're the only person in the store, it'll take them longer than 15 minutes to cut a cup of fruit for you. The orders are usually incorrect and the fruit is often hard and doesn't taste fresh. Today will be the last day that I'll be going to La Hormiguita as I was surprised by a little friend in my fruit cup. Imagine eating your fruit and looking down at a live cockroach climbing up a piece of mango :( read more

Not sure if it was a off day or what but I've never had esquites. It took about 15 mins for us to get our order - the kernels itself is very hard & there's a lot of lime in the taste. Yeah the portions are huge and the price is pretty good but there's no point when it's disgusting. I've never had lime in esquites before or at least not this much. It's overpowering everything else. I'm trying really hard to eat it and not waste it but I can't, it's just horrible. read more

This was my usual raspado place, until today. The owner, older gentleman, gave me a dirty look when I walked in. I thought it was nothing at first until I was ordering. Ordered a raspado and 2 green juices, but while I was ordering he was talking to his friend who happened to walk in while I ordered. Him and his usual customer continued talking, then when my order came out so 1 raspado. He's all your orders ready and I continued to wait as he helped other customers. After he finished with everyone he looked at me and was all, yes is there anything else? I said didn't I order 2 juices, and he looked at me and said no you didn't, and turned away. And with that my business is done here. You know which place doesn't give you dirty looks, is professional and wants your business. CYBER YOGURT. They may not have raspados but they do have really good frozen drinks. read more

Local business that has a variety of natural juices and Mexican goodies! I am planning to make this a place I frequent because the lady did a great job in balancing out the flavors of the Green juice I had this morning. I am not a big fan of Celery juice and ginger irritates my stomach, but she added just enough to have all the veggies compliment one another. She was kind and very knowledgable about her product! read more

This little spot is great! Not fancy - but it wouldn't feel right if it was lol. I came in specifically for this pineapple & cucumber fresca!!! blended fresh & tastes so good!!! LILY was the only one on deck holding down the shop & she was a sweetheart. My fresca was super large for only $3.50 - too bad this place is not close to where I live cuz I would be tempted to come get this drink 3-4x a week!!! If you like tamarind candies & snacks this shop is the best! All kinds of stuff to choose from that you cannot easily find other places. They had these watermelon, tamarind "dots" that were BOMB!!! I have to go back & try their mangonada!!! This place reminded me of a La Moachana ice cream shop only it was smaller & had a more "mom & pop" vibe. Good stuff! read more

La Hormiguita is epitome of a "hole in the wall." This hidden gem in El Monte is an amazing place to get your natural fresh juices from a small business. Very affordable prices and you will see many community members here at lunchtime to get there jugo, shake, or raspado. They have Mexican ice cream here that's very delicious and other snacks like chips and such. They have a wide range of items for all types of cravings healthy or a little on the "indulge yourself" side. If you're interested in supporting a true small business I would say this is the spot to do so. read more

This was my first time trying this place. I was craving a Raspado de Nuez for awhile now, but I've had some bad experiences. I dislike overly sweet raspados. I immediately throw them away or give them away cuz I can't stand them. I was searching all throughout yelp where was a good spot and going through reviews. Although at first this store only had 2 reviews I really wanted to check it out. Especially because it was only down the street from me. To my surprise this store was kept so neat and clean. (I've gone and seen places where they look like they need a complete big remolde along with updated menus/posters) It was very tidy. Very organize. I love that!!! The owner was nice. I think I freaked him out though cuz I started to take pictures of his store. I guess he hasn't seen a true yelper yet Lol. I should've apologized, but I seriously was too excited to try this place out My raspado was overall PERFECT!!!!! Jus $3.00 Not too sweet! It had enough flavor and lots of pecan pieces in it!!! I'm so happy to have gone to this little shop. I'm definitely coming back and trying the rest of their items on the menu. To bad they didn't have to-go menus. Maybe next time I go in. :) Thank you!!! read more

It's kale, spinach, ginger juice, lemon juice, banana, cucumber, and coconut water. This healthy, humongous smoothie is very fresh, cold, and refreshing. I visited Mamma's Juicery (Baldwin Park) on Tuesday (around 7:35AM). Parking is extremely easy because the connected lot is spacious & big. This business is on the corner of the "Park Plaza on Maine." Staff is professional, hardworking, and welcoming. Staff (receipt says Alma) worked nonstop. I'd continuously hear chopping, pounding, washing, and blending from behind the counter. Guests order from the counter; Staff prepares the drink; and Guests pay at the end. My drink took two minutes and 12 seconds. Very fast! As mentioned, I enjoyed the Daily Detox Smoothie ($16 - 32oz). The ingredients felt distinct and very fresh. The cold smoothie flowed silkily. And the end result tasted refreshing, vibrant, and delicious. This drink felt thoughtfully composed. Regarding ambiance, Mamma's Juicery (Baldwin Park) genuinely stunned me with its cleanliness. Its smooth tables, windows, and floors sparkled. This business felt like it belonged in an upscale neighborhood. The passion and care invested into this business is very visible. Mamma's Juicery (Baldwin Park) has indoor and outdoor seating. There's two shiny tables and one tall shiny counter inside. And there's five outside tables. I especially liked how the counter had a few available electrical outlets (about two) embedded inside. There's also a gender neutral restroom. The location felt welcoming with its tasteful holiday decor. But the soft music's volume almost vanishes as the sounds from the fridges and kitchen echo alongside. Overall, Mamma's Juicery (Baldwin Park) surpassed all expectations. The drinks are very fresh; the service is professional; and the ambiance is comfy.

Everything tasted fresh and high quality. Service was quick and friendly, and the place has a clean, welcoming vibe. Solid go-to if you're looking for fresh juices or a quick health boost.

Lots of great bases & topping choices! Staff were kind and service was quick and helpful. I…read morerecommend getting the regular açaí with all their fruits + granola. There is limited sitting inside, but it is nice and clean (w/ cold AC). There is also clean outside seating. Always happy to return whenever i'm craving açaí!!

Bionico bowl (minus papaya) and an acai bowl - our faves!

New flavor bases for their açaí bowls - we tried the mango and it's fantastic!

Her customer service was not the best, I feel like she was very unwelcoming, like she wasn't enjoying her job which didn't bother me at first until I overheard her treating one of her coworkers with no respect. I think she was telling her coworker something she did was wrong but she was very rude about it & I even saw her rolling her eyes, which I believe is very unprofessional for a customer to see plus for a small business to have. I believe in supporting small business but only when staff are treated properly as well.

I had a lovely experience at Valley Cafe (El Monte). I ordered the Pandan Cream Coffee Latte ($7 -…read more24oz - Iced). This vibrant cream rekindled memories of nuts and delicate vanilla. This fresh, delicious coffee woke me up, and I couldn't contain my smile. TASTY! (Important: Bring Cash. There's a 50 cent processing fee for all card transactions.) I arrived at Valley Cafe (El Monte) on Tuesday (around 12PM). Parking is very easy because the rear lot is big. However, I felt a little uneasy as unfortunate homeless people wandered nearby. Honestly, I felt anxious about approaching this business because it's located in such a worn down area. I am so happy that the positive recommendations were genuine. Staff is very welcoming and hardworking. Staff politely answered all my questions, and Staff gave wonderful recommendations. My drink took four minutes and 19 seconds. Good time! As mentioned, I ordered the Pandan Cream Coffee Latte ($7 - 24oz - Iced). It's DELICIOUS and HUGE! It perfectly balances utility and flavor. I embraced its loving caffeine. And I happily enjoyed the silky, chill brew. I love how the flavor of fresh coffee shines while also delivering such a delectable pandan, nutty flavor. It's one of the best! On ambiance, Valley Cafe (El Monte) has some utility. There's customer internet with password; customers must ask Staff for the details. However, there's only one electrical outlet near a tall counter. Fortunately, there's a gender neutral restroom for customers in the back. Valley Cafe (El Monte) is also very clean. The floors sparkled! And the location is small, but it's comfy. There's about four tables and one counter. Light upbeat music played. Overall, I am humbled by Valley Cafe (El Monte). It's a perfect textbook example of "Don't judge a book by its cover." There's passion and sincere care within this establishment. The coffee is also phenomenal. If nearby, I wholeheartedly recommend. 4.9 out of 5

i love this place. i love acai in general, but other places don't hit the same as vita cane…read more firstly, they allow as much toppings as they offer and your bowl can hold. what!! don't go easy on the toppings. they really make the bowl. the acai part is always amazing as well. i usually only get the acai and the mango flavors, but the other options did not disappoint those few times i got them. i forgot if they also allow an unlimited amount of base flavors. probably. i love the wide variety of toppings and bases they have. it makes me feel like i have freedom, like this is why i live in america in the first place. i always get loads of fruit because i like acting healthy and also their fruits are pretty good! their granola is awesome too. i usually get the strawberry vanilla, but i'm sure the others are good as well. they also have a few dressing choices, which are honeys and maybe syrups ?? overall, this is an amazing place for a dessert that tastes absolutely awesome while still being healthy! i forgot about the sugarcane (which is kinda what this place is all about)!! never disappoints. i like the really big one with coconut in it. tastes amazing.

Stopped by half an hour before closing. The staff was efficient and friendly…read more What we wanted was straightforward - half a gallon of sugarcane juice. It came in a large resealable bag. Taste-wise it was above average but not the best we have had (that honor goes to Cococane in OC, which also costs less) but still quite good. Didn't have any problems with parking at the lot, but then again we were there on a weeknight.
