Sena has been a lunchtime staple for years for me and the food has never disappointed, it's a restaurant I've recommended over and over for out of town folks. I've tried so many things on the menu: fish and chips, Cobb salad, summer steak salad, nachos, pastrami, burgers and somehow have never been disappointed. It surprises me even! Service has been hit and miss at times depending on who's there. No one is rude, just a little slow to take orders, refill drinks, bring checks or take checks. Today, however, the service was stand out. Johan served us today and he was so attentive despite a busy lunch rush. Order was correct and he personable, brought us extra plates, water refills, and helped us split a salad without being asked. I come fairly often and this was, by far, the best service experience I've had here. 10000/10 for Johan. read more

Best chicken wings in town, in my opinion $17 for a dozen decent sized wings is a pretty good deal in these times, and they're delicious. I get half/half for the Louisiana hot and dry. Buenos nachos are bueno Drinks are great, Margaritas are tasty. Service is friendly, but can get a little slow when busy, so make sure you order what you want before the server disappears into the crowd. The back patio is deceptively nice. It just doesn't look like there is one until you get there. You'll know what I mean when you go... The bar gets pretty loud, but you can avoid the noise by sitting outside or the inside patio. read more

Sena On Myrtle - Olivia's Special. - New American Near Me - Monrovia, California

My daughter took me for Mothers Day to this restaurant and I LOVED it!! I would DEFINITELY come back. The drive is OK if you don't mind driving out to Monrovia from LA. Found parking for free which is ALWAYS nice. The menu isn't that large which is kind of good. Less choices, less decisions to make; therefore, quicker for me to order. Special drink menu for Mothers Day. I LOVED my pomegranate margarita. It tasted SO GOOD and it was SO PRETTY!! I'm VERY picky about my chiliquilles. I HATE soggy chips. I am delighted to report that it was perfect! The service was very good. Always a plus. I LOVED the ambiance. We sat outside in the back of the restaurant. Several areas to sit. The only issue was that it was HOT so we didn't dare lean back into our seats. I would definitely come back. read more

I was looking for a place to eat in Old Town Monrovia and came across Sena on Myrtle after seeing that the reviews were pretty solid. I wanted to try a place that served something other than typical American food and also had a good alcoholic beverage menu, so this seemed like a good choice. The wait wasn't bad, and I was seated toward the back of the restaurant in a quieter outdoor area, which I really liked. There was plenty of shade, comfortable seating, plants used as décor, and an overall relaxed atmosphere. It felt tucked away enough to enjoy the meal without too much noise. Convenient for me as i had my little one with me. I ordered a watermelon jalapeño margarita, but with vodka instead of tequila, and Tajín on the rim. It was delicious! It had a refreshing, flavorful taste which was exactly the kind of drink I was hoping for. For food, I ordered the steakhouse tacos. The tacos were tasty and cooked really well, but the portion size was a little disappointing. They only come with two tacos, plus tortilla chips and sauce, so paying around $16 felt a bit pricey for what you get. The food itself was good, but I definitely wished the portion was a little more generous. Customer service was excellent. The staff was friendly, and I really liked my waitress. She had a warm personality and took care of my order within a reasonable amount of time. Place was worth trying. The atmosphere was nice, the drink was great, the food was cooked well, and the service was lovely. read more

Stopped by for Monday happy hour and it turned into one of those unexpectedly great nights. The pricing is solid, especially for the quality, and it's a great way to ease into the week without it feeling like a typical Monday. The ambience really stands out warm lighting, a relaxed crowd, and a laid back energy that feels both lively and comfortable. Sitting outside under the stars added to it, giving the whole evening a calm, almost getaway feel. Food came out fresh and well-prepared, and the service was attentive without hovering everything flowed naturally from start to finish. Add great company to the mix, and it easily becomes a standout night. Overall, a strong happy hour spot with great value, solid food, and an atmosphere that delivers. A+ read more

I got to go back to Sena On Myrtle with more friends and a fur baby, after we were turned away from another restaurant not allowing dogs. We knew Sena on Myrtle would seat us with my friend's dog and we are so glad we went here instead! We were seated outside on the Myrtle street patio on a Saturday night. It was pretty loud and rowdy inside and outside since there was a game going on but we didn't mind it. My friends and I got appetizers and dessert to share: sweet potato fries and churros to start. Our little fur baby guest sitting under the table also got her own thing off the dog menu (which is relatively knew I heard). We ordered her a chicken breast and it was served warm and cooked for her to eat as well. What a nice addition! We were so glad Sena is dog friendly. They even have a selection of non-alcoholic drinks for gals like me, like their non-alcoholic Virgin Michelada - I would come back just for this drink! I ordered their Summer Steak Salad and my friends ordered a variety of tacos. The salad was just what I was looking for - fresh with a little zing, which I loved. All the food was affordable, reasonably-priced, and delicious. Our servers were also both really friendly and funny; part of the experience here is that you get the most friendliest of servers and they make sure your party will have a great time. read more

My friends and I have been going to Sena for over 2 years. We have enjoyed our Sunday brunches, our happy hour meet and greets and especially the fun music that keeps the vibe alive. The food is next level. My favorites are the salmon salad, ceviche (yum), and carne asada tacos. Make sure to try the Sangria! Best in town. Usually sit outside in the front or the bar area. Ask for Johan, he will get you the best cocktails!t read more

I've been frequenting Sena on and off for the last year. Sometimes for lunch and sometimes for dinner. I can honestly say that I have not had a bad experience. Above and beyond that, I have to say that one bartender, Frank, goes out of his way to make sure I have an awesome experience. Even if I haven't been in for a month, he remembers what I'm drinking and what I prefer to eat. Awesome staff overall, awesome food overall and awesome drinks overall. Highly recommend! Ask for Frank! I wanted to add that all the bar tenders there are great...I don't know everyone's names, but wanted to be sure to include Johan, David and Kat! Awesome neighborhood bar. read more

Had an excellent lunch at Sena. Frank our waiter is so welcoming and he always makes our experience special!!

I've been here 3 different times. I enjoyed what I ordered every visit. The food here is amazing. David is an outstanding server. Super attentive and does provide good menu options. Great vibe. Great music. Seating inside and out. They even have a back patio. First visit I tried their Mediterranean Chicken Bowl. I gave this dish a 10/10 and recommended it to my sister my second visit and she loved it. My second visit I tried their Buffalo Wings. Crispy on the outside juicy on the inside. Made perfectly. 10/10. My third visit with hesitation I ordered the short rib chilaquiles with both red and green salsa per David's recommendation. Probably the best chilaquiles I've ever had. The chilaquiles were crispy and stayed crispy throughout. Both salsas were delicious and although green tends to be my favorite I actually preferred the red for this one. The short rid was tender, juicy, and flavorful. All the elements on this dish could stand alone but were perfect together. read more

Sena might just be my new favorite restaurant. Located on Myrtle in Monrovia this is an absolute gem in the gem. I ordered the special of the day, Niks steak sandwich, and it was absolutely amazingly diabolicaly delicious! The chimichurri with the provalone blended with the super tender steak beautifully. The bread was as soft as the pillows at the Vegas Wynn, if u know, u know. I gobbled up that thing like it was my first meal out of jail. Bailey was super attentive and sweet as well, will be back. read more

Sena On Myrtle - Summer Steak Salad - New American Near Me - Monrovia, California

This is our favorite happy hour spot in Monrovia! My sister and I loveee the shrimp tacos, it never disappoints. On top of that, I always get the crispy chicken slider along with the $4 happy hour taco (one time it was carne asada, another time was pescado-- both were delicious). My favorite go-to drink would be the hibiscus margarita or the red sangria-- would actually get both some days. My friend enjoys the salsa and chips for $3. Service is pretty good, ambiance is nice. Place is wheelchair accessible, and parking is everywhere. read more

Food was very, very good even my Grandchildren gobbled down every morsel that came their way LOL We sat out on the sidewalk since they were having a private Birthday party on the back patio which limited their seating for the day. It was a chilly day so I do recommend that you bring a sweater in case you are sitting outdoors on a cloudy day... and even inside where the large windows are. Parking is directly in front of the restaurant but also additional is in the back, Respectfully Reviewed. read more

Service was really good!!! Our server Amanda was very attentive the entire time ! With good personality! The food is just ok I ordered the Chop salad and guac. Could have been better seasoned but I did like how you get big portions. I'll try something else next time! The ambiance is cool not very upscale or modern, but the outside patio is nice. It gives more bar vibes than a dine in to eat. I heard they have a good taco Tuesday so maybe I'll come back for that. Plenty of street parking Located in old town Monrovia. -Marshay D. read more

Sena had been one of my family's favorite restaurants for years. Unfortunately, we've noticed that the cleanliness and food quality have really declined over the last several months. The tables, chairs and floors are dirty. The high chairs for kids look like they've never been cleaned. The menus are terribly sticky. When you walk through the restaurant to get to the back seating area, you can peek in the kitchen and see that it's filthy. The food quality also seems to have gone down. Our meals haven't been nearly as good as they used to be. We're so disappointed because this used to be our go-to place to bring visiting family and meet up with friends. We hope it returns to its previous greatness so we can enjoy it once more! read more

Trying this place for Taco Tuesday. Food was good, the Korean short rib taco was too sweet, not for our taste. Margaritas, micheladas, fish taco our favorite and sweet potato fries so yummy! Lady server was nice and polite. Not the guy, rude service. No smile, not attentive. Hope next time he's in a better mood. Overall will be back for happy hour, cool ambiance This is pets friendly with menu for your fur baby! Nice touch! Parking everywhere (check time limit) and in the back. read more

I have frequented Sena quite often over the years. Owner and staff are always very nice and accommodating. Food is very tasty, and I enjoy sitting in the main bar area or the outside patios. I've met some very cool people there, and they have some amazing DJ sets on the weekends. Overall, my favorite place on Myrtle and one of the most fun and consistent places to go to in the San Gabriel Valley. read more

Stumbled across this place via my work for their networking event on Taco Tuesdays. I've been to Main street Monrovia a couple of times but always missed this place. It's got good vibes for a nice cozy get together with friends/coworkers not too loud nor quiet. General TLDR, more information below: Service & Ambience: 4.5/5 food: 2.5/5 The service here is great, the staff is always mindful and checking up on us to see how our meal is doing and if we need anything else. Now onto the food itself: Spicy Buttermilk fried chicken taco : Never have I ever thought I would see buttermilk fried chicken in a taco... I'd say the appearance is it's main impact. Taste wise, I think the seasoning of the chicken couldn't stand on equal footing with the havarti cheese and sriracha as they were too overpowering. the tenderness of the chicken was there though. al pastor: As a control, i opt'd for al pastor to get a gauge of their taco chops, figuratively speaking. I want to say it generally felt tasteless, the guacamole didn't have enough seasoning. I'd probably expect maybe a pineapple piece to accompany the taco too for aesthetic/taste. for $4.5 on Taco tuesday, I'd expect at least two tacos probably for that price not just for one short rib grilled cheese: Feeling still a bit peckish, I ordered a short rib grilled cheese. I'll say I couldn't taste any short rib as I feel it was masked with the aioli/caramelized onions/provolone cheese. I would not recommend this the next time I go and probably go for the more traditional American options. Parking is fairly convenient around here as there are various free public parking spots dotted around the street. As a first time goer, I'd just around 1 block from the street and you'll see public parking signs. read more
