Top Chinese Restaurant in San Dimas
Panda Express
508 N Lone Hill Ave, San Dimas, CA 91773, United States
I used to be a regular at Panda Express, but this restaurant changed it all. Being the only Chinese fast food alternative close to work, I tried it twice and had a really bad experience both times.The first time the rice was dry and had tasted like it had been sitting there for a while. I decided to give it another try but the second time was actually much worse. Apart from the Kung Pao chicken being tasteless, the chicken in the String Bean Chicken was actually raw. I dont know if it was just my luck but I am not going to it again especially with this specific restaurant.I used to be a regular at Panda Express, but this experience has changed that. The last time I was in a(nother) Panda Express, it was almost a year ago.

Royal Panda
855 W Arrow Hwy, San Dimas, CA 91773, United States
Honestly one of the best Chinese restaurants that I have ever gone to. I feel that I got way more than my moneys worth to be honest. The food was nothing short from awesome. Everything was hot, fresh, and delicious. The restaurant was clean, welcoming, and overall a very pleasant experience. The staff absolutely loaded our plates and was very kind, making me feel very happy to be there. The prices are very affordable and the overall value was top tier. If you’re in the mood for great Chinese food, friendly smiles, and not empty pockets, I honestly cannot recommend a better place than Royal Panda.

God, I love this place. I travel for a living, and I get SO excited when I can come back here. The food is GORGEOUS and top-notch quality, even for Southern California, where I feel some of the best sushi standards exist in this country. I get the Tako Wasabi every time. It is amazing and most sushi places dont offer this. I also got the Ankimo again, which I just adore. This time I got the Pctopus Carpaccio, and Im in LOVE with it. I also got the super fatty yellowtail, and I cant believe km saying this, but it might be TOO rich. I doubt Ive ever said thise words. Haahhaaa. I also got the conch sushi. Im glad I tried it, but it was just ok. I did, however try the salmon belly, and it was amazing! The one issue I have with this place is the music. Now dont get me wrong, I personally listen to a lot of what they play, but my boyfriend refuses to come back here, because he is a teacher and he cant believe they play music with the worst of the worst swear words in it, with children in the building. I think the owners need to consider that their teenage employees might not be picking music thats doing then and favors. Im no prude. I have a total sailor mouth, but when children are around, I act like an adult. I would NEVER bring my children here, if I had any. Just saying. Otherwise, this place is my fav sushi place in the entire country. I just have to come here alone. :(

I finally got to try this new boba place near me however I was a little disappointed. I got the caramel vanilla smoothie with boba (total $5.34). When I went the guy said they were out of boba. He said they only had 1/2 a serving of boba left, mid day which is kinda weird since people usually go for the boba in their tea. He gave me the boba for free (62¢ extra) however it was hardly anything. Even if it was a full serving it still wouldnt be enough. The drink was okay. Blended milk and ice and some caramel drizzle at the bottom. Couldnt really smell or taste any vanilla. Once I finished the boba I threw the rest away. I would try a different boba spot next time.Also the owner took the time to reply to my Yelp review very rudely unfortunately saying I have a “hateful personality” for the review. Just cuz something is free doesn't mean its good. Just want to be honest and don't want people to waste their hard earned money.

Great Chinese food is found in an unusual place. This bar restaurant serves great food even though the outside is sketchy looking lol. Dont judge this bar by its cover lol. I had sesame chicken and spicy chicken wings with fried rice. Great food. Great service!
ocean house fish grill
559 W Arrow Hwy, San Dimas, CA 91773, United States
We found this place a little while ago while looking for fish and chips. They have a pretty big selection of food, but I have got to say they do some of the dishes pretty well. The most interesting thing we got here was definitely the sweet corn milk drink, which at the time of this review comes free with a check in. I love how it is easy to pay with Apply Pay, and how easy it was for me to order both times. They seem to get the food ready pretty fast, so just make sure you get the timing right if you plan to get it to go.FoodLike I mentioned before the food is pretty good, and to find this place in San Dimas, lets say it is awesome. Great to see so much more different types of restaurants like this open up in this city.We have tried :Fried Calamari - This comes with a cocktail sauce and was quite tasty!Fried Zucchini - Comes with a ranch dip, would probably prefer it was less breading.Cajun Salmon Salad- The salmon was just cooked to perfection, not too dry, just right with the Cajun Seasoning.Clam Chowder - If you want Clam Chowder this place has a pretty good oneShrimp Garlic Noodle- this was just ok.. again maybe if we ate it when it came out it may have been more tastierSmoky Seared Ahi Tuna - I believe this was one of my favorite dishes here, sweared Ahi, not too cooked or too raw. YumCrusted Swai Caesar salad- I liked the different breading they used for this. It was pretty decent, but the sauce was too thick.Pacific Cod with Miso Glaze - The cod was pretty good, I was just not that big of a fan of the purple mash potatoesThe only comment I would make is that their salad dressings, I wish was not so thick. It just tasted more like a dip instead of a dressing .Both of the times I ordered to go, and like I said it was quick and easy. Both times I had to get my food at different times, once late, and once on time... and definitely you know fried food taste better when it just comes out. We will see if we will get to try something else next time. Until then!

I went here with my boyfriend on a Monday around 3PM for the AYCE sushi. If I remember correctly the lunch was until 4PM. After that was considered dinner. The price for the AYCE lunch was $33.99 per person.You can order 3 rounds and there are multiple sections on the piece of paper to fill out per round. The first round we got a lot of stuff. A few appetizers, hand rolls, classic rolls and special rolls. Everything tasted fine except the edamame and classic rolls. The edamame was overcooked and lacked flavor. For the classic rolls, the rice that was used tasted very old and extra chewy, which was very weird tasting in my mouth. Ive had grocery sushi from Tokyo Central better than what I had here, which were the california roll and philadelphia roll.After eating everything from the first round, we only ordered 2 more items for the second round and were finished eating after that. For the price you pay I would say the AYCE is good if youre in the area and want to have some sushi. Service was great and food came out quickly.We decided not to have a third round because we were VERY full and couldnt handle any more food. So after we paid and left we decided to walk around a bit to help with the digestion of the food. Before we left my boyfriend thought it would be a good idea to finish his beer. But that was his doom. He ended up having to throw up a few minutes later to make himself feel better from all the food and beer he had.So if you decide to get AYCE just know your limits on food and dont be like my boyfriend :)
Top Thai Table
110 N San Dimas Ave, San Dimas, CA 91773, United States
I was not able to order any food because the young lady taking orders had a negative nasty demeanor about her self. I am not from the area and enjoy Thai food and decided to give this restaurant my business. The young lady had a negative attitude. I notice know one sitting in the restaurant aroud 1:04pm which is around lunch time. I asked her if she had an attitude she of course said No in a hasty voice as well as her body language and her presence was not full of light. She told me to get out of the restaurant she doesnt care about her attitude. Her words were if you dont like it Get Out! Which I did. Anyone patronizing this business will be disrespected by the young lady working there . Running a business you should have morals, respect and integrity. She had none of thee above.Peace

We are so grateful for PetSmart and their amazing staff at Glendora. We were having the most difficult time with our 13-year old Cocker-Spaniel Poodle (Parry) as hes been sick the past 8-days prior to us having to euthanize him at Pet Smart this past Monday 9/19/2022. More specifically, we could not have asked for a more professional and compassionate process and interaction with your amazing staff especially Dr. Chen. After 3 visits and some blood tests and x-ray interpretation, it was diagnosed that our dog had liver failure. Although it was hard, we appreciated the direct honesty and the compassion and care Parry received until the very last moment. I accompanied Parry during the last moment and am thankful for PetSMart throughout the years in taking care of him with grooming, dog hotel and the vaccines too.PetSmart did not try to take advantage of a vulnerable situation by asking that additional ultrasound or further x rays be taken (Dr. Chen) and offered a 90% certainty that he had liver failure, which made the process more manageable. PetSmart had 2 different doctors interpret no blockage in x-ray, while we had the Emergency facility indicate that there was some blockage that required extraction and exploratory surgery. I dread to think that a procedure at his age would have caused him additional discomfort and pain, while not resolving his underlying issues and making his final days even more difficult and also causing us additional and very significant financial burden even though Parry is priceless. We had about 45 minutes with Parry outside of Pet Smart and it was memorable for me and my family. Although it is still very hard, it is impossible to imagine a better experience to undergo laying your dog to rest when it is their time. Most notably, PetSmart was also there throughout most of his adult years.I dont know if anyone will be reading this very long review but it is the very least I could do for a 10 out of 10 organization and facility in Glendora PetSmart.Sincerely,Zernan Abad
