Reviews for The Only Place In Town in Sierra Madre, CA
Long time restaurant (1945) in old town Sierra Madre. Lots of seating both inside and in covered outside area. Dog friendly... outside. Food was delicious. Parking is on street and in a lot next to restaurant. Place is very busy for lunch but wait wasminimal. Loved the short rib tacos and porta ella sandwich. Read more
I wish I would have taken pics of my Steak and eggs. It was excellent! Juicy sirloin cooked to perfection and great... presentation. Service was Top notch. My coffee cup was never empty. Lovely restaurant with outdoor seating as well. Willdefinitely be going back! Read more
Love coming here for the Champagne Soiree and brunch foods. The view is nice outside and they seem to be keeping the patio that... they added during pandemic times. This, however, was on a 105 degree day, so sitting outside was basically out of the question. Read more
The food was okay. The onion rings are good but the honey chicken was not to my liking. The chicken is in the same batter as the... onion rings. The brie sandwich had good flavor but was still too oily. Read more
First time there for dinner (1st week in August). We ate outside, nice atmosphere. I ordered Short Ribs but was given Pot... Roast! Not here to complain about the food but the service was awful! Waitress was very rude and NOT attentive to our needs. We were still waiting for our extra plate 10 minutes after our dinners were served. I signaled my waitress to come over when Isaw her taking orders next table from us. She came over in a few minutes, I indicated the extra plate that we asked for nevercame. She threw a fit at me! Complaining about how busy she was and had inside and outside customers to take care of. ?Idon?t care?! I just wanted an extra plate, my food was getting cold! No ways to be rude to your customers!! Be aware next timeyou planned to eat there! Read more
This place is the best place in town! Just like the name itself! I ordered the Dutch harbor Benedict, steak salad and... Mediterranean pasta! They said it would be a 5 to 10 min wait but infact it was just about 5 min tops. They are very quick tosit you . it did take approximately 20 min for the food to arrive . But the wait is worth it!!The eggs Benedict were so tender!, and the potatoes were crispy and fresh. The salad wasn't what I was expecting because it had an odd ratio of vegetables andmeat. The heat of palms were very good but less is more since it's got such a mild but strong taste to them. The steak wasflavorful though. And the pasta was delicious. It had bitter olive flavor like balsamic vinegar but I enjoyed it. I like thattaste so if you want a pasta with that taste this is it. Ir comes with sun dried tomatoes and chicken and artichoke hearts . Butif anything the pancakes are the best here! Enjoy! Read more
First time there, it was delicious! We ate outside, although it was hot we still enjoyed it. The service was great our waitress... was awesome, forgot her name but she had a ponytail that was blueish- she didn't miss a beat. Our food was perfect as well. Willbe back to try more dishes. Ambiance was nice as it's been a while. Read more
This is a moderately priced place that has been in this location for many years. It is a cut above a coffee shop, but not a... gourmet restaurant.We have received friendly, attentive service each time we've chosen to eat here. My companion was impressedthat the burger ordered rare actually came rare, so the kitchen does seem to pay attention to diners' requests. There is noespresso machine, so you will not be able to get a latte or cappuccino, just a cup of hot, pretty good java. The brunch menuoffers the usual fare that is a bit more expensive than someplace like Mimi's in nearby Monrovia, but Sierra Madre is an artytown, so things tend to be a tad more pricey, but not exorbitant. A big plus is that there is a lot of free parking in the town.There is nice outdoor seating on the sidewalk in front of this restaurant with a view of the San Gabriels. Sierra Madre is aslow-paced pleasant little town, and this is a no-friils pleasant place to eat. Read more
