Top Chinese Restaurant in La Crescenta
House of Joy - La Crescenta
3220 Foothill Blvd, La Crescenta-Montrose, CA 91214, United States
This place is very average to say the least. Being the only korean Chinese restaurant in La Crescenta, if you have any Korean Chinese food cravings, youre S.O.L. and only have this place to serve your cravings. Food is very pricey here, and very very average. Whenever I go and eat here and get the bill, I think to myself that Im never going back but I do when my craving kicks.... Hope someone opens another Korean Chinese restaurant soon in LC.

Tasty orange chicken. Friendly staff. Large portions and reasonably, but oddly priced.Your typical Chinese takeout1, 2, or 3 item combos with chow mein or fried riceThe reason I said this place is oddly priced is because usually the more you buy, the cheaper the upgrades between levels become. However, between the 1 item and 2 item combo, the upgrade is $1 but the upgrade between the 2 item and the 3 item is $2. Not a deal breaker, just strange.They have chili oil and the OG sriracha sauce which was a major plus.For what it is, this place is great! It's hard to find a filling meal under $13 these days. I had a big appetite coming in and had some leftovers to spare after the 3 item combo.

Zen is my favorite Asia fusion restaurant in our area. My husband and I have been going to Zen for a fun lunch for many years, through a change in ownership. Im vegetarian and I love the Crazy Lunch Combo B. I usually order a Veggie roll and Tempura Veggie role. It comes with Miso soup. My husband often orders a Chinese dish with brown rice or Salmon Lunch Box. The food is fresh and we both have always felt good after eating at Zen. ??
Fosters Donuts
2601 Foothill Blvd, La Crescenta-Montrose, CA 91214, United States
Growing up there were two places wed get donuts from. One was here, at Fosters Family Donuts and the other was at a Chinese take out place down the street called Chores. That one was convenient because it was a little closer, but the donuts werent as good. I have since wondered how the owners decided on the name Chores for their little Chinese take-out place. Was the guy who opened it just so surprised and sick at the amount of chores he had to do to run a restaurant that he sarcastically called it Chores because thats all it was to him? Chores was right across the street from a KFC that my dad absolutely hated. Now you have to understand my father was always a very even-tempered and patient man but the one thing that could always get him mildly-frustrated was having to go to that KFC. His main complaint was that every time he tried to order a specialty item like popcorn chicken theyd say Oh were out of that like, every single time. Hed always come out of their just bitter and flustered which was funny because he was still holding a bucket of thighs and drumsticks but hed say something under his breath like knuckleheads! or unbelievable!.Anyway, Fosters Family Donuts. Its located in what I like to call the Saturday Morning Dad Shopping Center cause its right next to an OReilly Auto Parts and if there are two places youre most likely to find your dad on a Saturday morning its in a donut shop or an auto parts store. Or a hardware store. I swear my dad lived for the chance to drag me or my brother to the hardware store on Saturday mornings and then spend at least an hour sorting through those little drawers of screws and bolts.Anyway the donuts here are good.
