Remodeled
Gelin Cara T.

This place is tucked away in the corner of a very small strip mall, but it is quite the gem. The food coming out is definitely not what I expected from a place in this location. I can see parking getting crowded if all businesses around were busy. Food - SO GOOD. Regular chicken bowl with broccoli and white rice - First off, I like that they serve the chicken naked and sauce on side. That way, you can control your amount of sauce. Their sauce is homemade and delicious! It compliments the super tender chicken. It wasn't dry at all. I also think this is the ONLY chicken bowl I've ever had that had a larger chicken-to-rice ratio! More protein! Their side of mac salad is delicious as well! It's not drenched in mayo and has just the right amount of bite to it. I can tell the macaroni wasn't overcooked and soft. Ambiance - When coming in, the lady at the front was taking call-in orders left and right. So that may be the key to it. But they were all very friendly. I definitely recommend this place and will be making it a regular go-to spot for when I need to get takeout for lunch during work.

Delicious, quick, and healthy! Service is very friendly and I can tell they have many regulars. You order at the front and food is ready in 5-10 minutes. You can also order ahead which I noticed many patrons did. I ordered a regular chicken bowl and made it spicy and added Asian slaw on top. This is such a good weekday meal if you're unable to cook and want something nourishing. The regular was massive and I saved half for later. I will be back to try their other options!

Favorite little chicken bowl place! It's a small business, but they are great at what they do. I frequent this place typically on my lunch break from work and have never been disappointed. The portions are reasonable and fairly priced. My favorite would have to be the spicy chicken bowl and white rice combo. The chicken is never greasy or fatty and the spice is a medium level heat (and i'm not great with spicy) so I think this is a good amount of heat. The kimchi is also worth trying it is some of my favorite. I prefer this place over bigger names in the chicken bowl game, and I think so will you. Must try!

(+) Spicy chicken bowl The chicken bowl is a casual, hole in the wall, fast food restaurant that specializes in chicken with an asian fusion twist such as yakisoba and korean tacos. If you're in the mood for chicken and rice, this is the place to be. Food: I ordered the spicy chicken bowl, which came with just marinaded chicken on a bed of rice. The chicken itself wasn't too spicy or overly flavorful. The dark meat chicken is very lean and there is no fat or skin attached to any of the pieces I ate. Service: My bowl came out in about 5-7 minutes and it was steaming hot. The owner I believe was kind and easy to talk to. I would say I haven't had the full experience of the menu, but I will definitely be back when I am in the area. My initial impression is great, and tasted great enough to eventually ease my way into the chicken bowl again.

Quick service and solid food. A good option in the area for a lunch pickup spot. The side dishes do not have a lot of flavor and I found the mac salad to be pretty bland. Spicy chicken was pretty good!

An affordable and healthy meal choice in the Montebello area. There's actually a lot of chicken teriyaki places around the area, but I find what makes them distinct is the freshness of the ingredients and the affordability of the meals with the portions that you get with it. Although I usually don't consider chicken+rice a cheat meal, but the food here makes me feel like I'm actually eating clean. Yay for eating and feeling healthy! The place was remodeled from the first time I visited back in 2017 and it can seat around 6 people inside. Unfortunately, no public restroom for customers though! || L O C A T I O N || -located on the corner of Washington Blvd. & S.Montebello Blvd. -Same plaza as 7 Eleven and next to Doughnut Makers. -Parking lot is quite small and the spaces are quite tiny. It may be difficult to find parking during peak hours. || F O O D || Chicken Bowl ($ 5.48+$0.50 for veggies = $5.98) I was surprised with how much chicken was packed in the bowl, and I liked how healthy it tasted. Barely any taste of grease and chicken was tender. Price is really good for what you get. Chicken & Beef Plate ($10.96) - Comes with a choice of 2 sides (macaroni salad, kimchi, steamed veggies, miso soup, or green salad). The chicken was great, but what blew me away was the beef. Don't judge the beef by its appearance, but it's actually not bland at all. It's very flavorful but doesn't taste like it was dunked in heavy seasonings or sauces as I would usually find in most bulgogi. It wasn't overly salty or sweet and was just the perfect amount of seasoning. After trying the beef, I would definitely like to try the tacos for my next visit!

Half and half bowl. Super good

I remember Shootz carrying all of Rodeo X, but it's clear that this is one of the favorite spots for Rodeo 72 with many people picking up to go orders here and waiting in line to get their dinner, as well as me seeing a lot of people eating their delicious katsu throughout our walk through of this food hall. Although the app does give you a time estimate, it's still slightly off, especially with how popular they are, so keep that in mind, but staff are grinding and doing their best. The cashier ran back in forth to take orders, fulfill the completed orders, and then went back into the kitchen to help them cook and pack too. Hard working! My friend and I got the: 1) Creme Brulee Musubi: -A staple for any Hawaiian spot and this is a unique and tasty twist. -It's a grilled spam musubi topped with green onion, their signature kimchi butter and brûlée'd brown sugar. -Great mix of salty, sweet, and savory. I can probably eat several of these in 1 setting if I'm not paying attention. 2) Mac Salad: -I wasn't going to get this to start with, but I had this at their other location when I ordered a plate, so I was immediately swayed when I was mobile ordering. -Deliciously thick mac salad, made with shredded tuna (don't see this very often), mashed boiled eggs and macaroni. Generous amount of paprika on top too. Very creamy, and rich. Can't go wrong with a good mac salad. 3) Ube Beignets: -Comes out steaming hot, yummy ube filling. Sweetness to me mostly came from the powdered sugar surprisingly. I love beignets, so this was a no brainer to how good it was going to be. If you're brave you can shove the whole thing in your mouth, if you want to enjoy it, probably around 2-3 ites. Second time having Shootz. Delicious Hawaiian style food. Simple menu, indulgent, and if you have too much of it too often (that kimchi butter man), it's not good for you, but man is it delicious!

I had a good experience at Don Katsu (Montebello). I ordered the Seafood Katsu Lunchbox ($18.97)…read more It includes three breaded jumbo shrimp, two breaded fish filets, rice, macaroni salad, salad, and tartar sauce. It's A LOT of food!! I had plenty of leftovers! (Quick Note: This business is located inside the Montebello's Mall Food Court. It's a food stall.) I arrived at Don Katsu (Montebello) on a weekday. Parking is very easy. Since it's located in the mall's food hall, it's near an enormous parking lot. Staff is professional, friendly, and diligent. Staff (receipt says Bere) worked hard. The food was cooked to order, and the food took about 10 minutes. As mentioned, I ordered the Seafood Katsu Lunchbox ($18.97). This meal can easily feed two people. I especially LOVE how the meal was breaded and fried perfectly. The breading was crisp, flaky, and fresh. The meal also had wonderful good quality, thick shrimp. TASTY!! However, the fried fish filets were lackluster, the fish came hot and a bit mushy. It tasted like the generic warmed up pre-frozen filets from Trader Joe's. The rice came lukewarm, but I appreciated how the salad tasted fresh and clean. The macaroni also had a pleasant light tang. Although I wouldn't reorder this meal, it's a satisfying budget meal. On ambiance, Don Katsu (Montebello) is unmemorable since it's a food court. However, the location felt clean and well tended. Also, I appreciate how this stall is near a cylinder with electrical plug outlets and the mall's restroom area. I felt safe as I ate. Overall, Don Katsu (Montebello) is a wonderful destination for hungry customers on a budget. The food is HUGE, and there's effort in the meals. Although the ingredients didn't feel the freshest, it's still a clean & satisfying choice. If hungry and nearby, I happily recommend. 4.6 out of 5

As for the food, the chicken and pork katsu were both breaded nicely and the meat was tender and not too dry. I did wish they used the regular "brown katsu" sauce that you might get at other restaurants (such as ono-hawaiian bbq). I didn't really like the two sauces they gave you cuz I felt they were too creamy for the meal. The macaroni salad was also more on the sour side. I think the meal requires something sour or acidic to cut up the heaviness, but I think that's what the kimchi and pickled jalapenos are for. I would prefer the macaroni salad to be less sour. Overall I think it's good value for the price but I don't think the flavors are for my taste.

They were perfectly crispy on the outside, had lots of filling inside, and came with 6 big pieces. It also had a side of veggies and fish sauce, which I love using to wrap my egg rolls. The golden delight pho had rare meat and noodles to the side, while the other toppings came inside the sizzling pot of broth. It had lots of noodles and toppings: tripe, rare beef, tendon, meat balls, and brisket. Pho was really rich in flavor. I also loved that the sizzling pots kept the broth hot the whole time. Noodles were also very bouncy, loved the texture. Beef short ribs were also very tender and full of flavor. Although it was very busy during a Tuesday lunch hour, the waiters sat us asap. The restaurant was pretty full but the food still came out really quick. Servers were really nice and attentive. They checked on us a few times. The restaurant has lots of tables and it was clean. It gave an overall homey- atmosphere. I would definitely come here again. Pho is a great price for its quality!

While there is plenty of seating and I often see people dining in, I usually take my food to go. The service has always been pretty straightforward. Most of the employees taking orders tend to be serious and not overly chatty. It hasn't always been the friendliest service, but honestly, I don't come here for conversation, I come for the food. The chicken teriyaki plate is my go-to order, and you really can't go wrong with it, especially if you add avocado. The portions are solid, the food is consistently good, and everything tastes fresh.

I could smell the delicious chicken and teriyaki smell from outside. For me I wanted to try the Teriyaki Chicken snd Tofu with brown rice. My teriyaki bowl ended up being like 20+ dollars so I kinda feel it's a bit expensive. They have different sizes so I ended up getting the biggest one. I see a lot of people just ordering the largest one too. So the basic bowl is just rice and chicken or a protein. If you wanted to add veggies, it's a charge. Most teriyaki places would charge like 1-2 dollars to add veggies. I was charged like 5 dollars ish for veggies. I'm not sure if that's because I ordered a large bowl. The food did taste good, the veggies tasted fresh, the teriyaki chicken had a real good char flavor to it and the sauce is good. I wish they had real sauce containers for their teriyaki sauce because they give you it in a sriracha bottle which looks old and a bit dirty. It's not a full service sit down restaurant so there isn't much of a service. You go up to the counter and you pick up the food yourself. Any napkins or utensils you have to ask them for it. None of that stuff is on the table. You also have to bus your own tray. Overall, it's a bit on the pricey side but it taste good. Their teriyaki sauce is really good and it's not too sweet or salty. Would recommend trying it out.
