I was astonished to see them on the menu as a brekky side & of course I ordered them with eggs & chorizo. The plate was a 8/10. Hot vanilla latte was a 10/10 , nice & foamy. Restrooms were clean. Staff were friendly & open to questions. Overall , a nice spot to catch up with friends or family. Also, it's by downtown Monrovia so you can take a stroll after your lunch.

Parking was easy since there were a good amount of spots right outside. The staff was friendly and welcoming, and the service was quick. I ordered a chai tea latte and a turkey avocado sandwich on a croissant with fries. The sandwich was fresh and flavorful, and the croissant was soft and buttery. My chai latte was really good too. Overall, I really liked this spot. It felt like a relaxed place to grab a good sandwich and drink. I would definitely come back.

This place is popping anytime I drive by and I just had to try for that alone. We had a larger party and were accommodated pretty quickly! It is a smaller on the inside but they have seating outside as well. The buffet they have on Sunday's is what draws the crowd. We skipped the buffet option but it looks like a deal! We have to come back to try that out as well. All the food was flavorful, the table went silent once our plates arrived, so that's always a good sign! My plate had a little bit of everything I was craving I love that they give you this option because their is waaaaay to much to choose from. This was a hidden gem I am so glad to have recommended a good place, we will be returning soon thank you La Patrona!!

Their hand made tortillas are delicious and come out piping hot. When I saw the plate, I assumed that it would be a 5 star meal. Everything looked so perfect. I've actually had to give it some thought and concluded that I would have to rate it 4 stars because of how chewy the meat was. I found myself having to work very hard to finish the last few bites. The asada was medium rare and that might be undercooked for a cut like skirt steak. I'll be back to try their ribeye, which would be perfect medium rare.

There seemed to be alot of regulars there and I can see why. Staff are friendly and welcoming and they have a large menu of breakfast and lunch items. I had their chicken fried steak w/eggs, hubby had their chorizo omelet and mom had their fish and chips. They serve this with saucers of various salsas including a chunky salsa and both red and green salsas! Food was delicious and portions large enough for leftovers the next day. Surpisingly, prices were low with entrees less than $15-$16. Thank you J&A for the excellent food and service!

It's right next to my job so super convenient. The girl working the register was so sweet she offered salsas and condiments and didn't rush me at all. She genuinely wanted to make sure I enjoyed their food, which I appreciated. The restaurant was packed in the middle of the day, which tells you everything you need to know. Just a heads up: it's cash only, so come prepared.

NOT TOO SWEET, FLAVORFUL! I dont know how this happened but apparently, my husband and Yosi (one of the workers in Stacks) came up with this one of a kind pancake. It was super good! I dont even like pancakes nor pineapple. STACKS, GET THIS ON THE MENU! My husband and I cannot cook so this was awesome! 5 stars because they accommodated my husband and it seemed like everyone had a great time accommodating his request. We also had the 20pcs wings. Everyone loved the lemon pepper the best. We had their XXL ribs, it was dry.. but not taking off a star coz again, of hubby's pancake creation The clam chowder was good enough :) Anyway, all in all, we would go back just to order jermaine's pineapple pancakes . Thank u soooo much Yosi, thank u also to our server I forgot his name :( you were so awesome! Thanks everyone!

My group ordered the following: 1) Stacks German pancake. It is served with fresh strawberries, blueberries and bananas. It was delicious. It satisfied my craving but I have had better. 2) Stacks favorite omelette. Omelette filled with ham, bell pepper and cheese. It is served with hash brown and pancake. Delicious. Nice size portions. Good value. 3) Gluten free blueberry pancake with a side of eggs and sausage. This is served with blueberry compote. Also delicious and good value. We also had brewed coffee. The coffee was good. Service was great. Staff friendly and attentive. Interior decor is very homey. We will be back when we are in the area.

Can't believe I haven't left a review for Jake's! I've been…read morecoming here with my dad for years. I am not usually the biggest fan of bbq(a lot of bbq sauces aren't it for me)... but I LOVE Jake's, the secret is in the sauce!! It's sweet and tangy in the perfect way and ends up with a smoky flavor from when they cook it as well. I looooove the huge beef ribs here, and the chicken is pretty good too. I've also tried the baby back ribs, which my family loves but I'm more of a beef kinda gal. Haven't tried much else on the menu because I just love the beef ribs so much tbh. The fries and salad are good, some other sides kinda feel like an afterthought, but the sides aren't the highlight here. I like the "roadside" nostalgic vibe inside, and the staff are nice. Some of the staff have been there for a long time and know a lot of the customers. Overall, this is my favorite restaurant in the neighborhood, and when Monrovia comes up in conversation, I always mention Jake's :)

This our first time at Jake's Roadhouse in the city of Monrovia on a Saturday,we throught will be a busy night at the restaurant it wasn't there's were customers enjoy this meal then we ask the waiter for a table he looks around the restaurant and found a table for us. We sat down then we look at the menu to see what to order everybody order on their own but my wife and I order BBQ combo it's come with a half a chicken,Tri Tip,two BBQ pork ribs,two BBQ beef ribs and two sides,we decided pick potato salad and mac n cheese to our meal. The atmosphere at Jake's Roadhouse is relaxing and a feeling see classic interior sign from the past that you can remember those doesn't exist anymore but enjoy walking to back in time. The waiter but out meal our BBQ combo meal to our table it looks scrumptious good. I cut a piece of the bbq chicken it was juicy,and tender and getting that smoke flavor in the chicken. And a bite of the Tri Tip it was tender and cover bbq sauce it good but it little bit too much of the bbq sauce but I enjoy it. The bbq pork ribs were very meaty they so good then bbq beef ribs they were meaty too with good flavor. The potato salad were very good full of flavors in the potato salad and mac n cheese was amazing cheesy good that I really enjoy. Meal come two muffins they very good. Everybody including ourselves enjoy the meal we were very happy and next try different items.

This is a very cute restaurant for breakfast/brunch! We came to try it on a Wednesday lunch…read more We ordered steak and eggs, the steak was not good, very rough. I wish they charge more but give a better quality steak. But the way they flavored the steak was very good!! Then we ordered the smoked salmon benny, very delicious! Loved everything about this dish! I would come back for this! We also ordered their signature dessert, Dutch baby, it tasted exactly like bread pudding. It was good but not what I imagined how it would taste. So trying once was enough for me. Service was attentive! Everything else was great. Will be back occasionally!

Let me start with the coffee and hazelnut latte, amazing. We were seated quickly, which was nice,…read morebut then it took about 10-15 minutes before anyone even acknowledged us. Servers kept walking past our table without checking in and honestly looked kind of lost or wandering around aimlessly. Luckily they keep water pitchers on the tables already filled, which now makes perfect sense considering how long it takes to get service. Smart move on their part. I ordered the avocado toast with a side of bacon, and my husband ordered the chorizo skillet. The coffees and my food came out quickly, but his never did. Instead, we watched an older server walk around the restaurant with his skillet and bacon, stopping at multiple tables asking if it belonged to them. Twice she set it down at other tables before being told it wasn't theirs. The third time, she finally brought it to us. That seems like it should be a health issue, what if someone else had stuck their fingers in it not knowing. By then, my husband didn't even want it anymore because it had already been sitting in front of other people. To their credit, they remade it, but then we waited another 15 minutes for his food while I had already finished eating. We actually watched another couple sitting next to us get so frustrated because their order was completely forgotten. After waiting forever with no food and barely any acknowledgment, they eventually just got up and left. Overall, cute spot and really good coffee, but the service was incredibly disorganized and the food mix-up was a huge turnoff. Unfortunately, we won't be back.

The ambiance is beautiful and modern, making it a great spot for drinks, light bites, or a casual date night that still feels a little elevated. They offer a full bar with a solid drink selection, and the overall service was friendly and welcoming. Food leans more toward handhelds like burgers and sandwiches, which makes it easy to just hang out and snack while you drink. The charcuterie board was so good and was honestly one of the best parts of the experience--great variety of cheeses, nuts, olives, bread, and that fig jam was amazing. Definitely a must-order if you're there. Overall: A stylish, comfortable bar with good food options and great drinks. Whether you're pairing it with Mélange or just stopping in for a drink and a bite, it's a solid spot to unwind.
