Jake's Roadhouse - Monrovia

First time at Jake’s and we had a nice meal. Service was great! Portions are huge. Husband had the baby back ribs and said they were great. I tried the smoked sausages, both Polish and Texas Spicy, and they were delicious. Lightly coated in bbq sauce and served with onions.

Arrived 5:35pm on Sunday 19 DEC and it was moderately busy inside. staff were all masked and other than taking orders and delivering meals maintained their distance from others. I was seated promptly (table for 1) and the lady immediately took my drink order before she left the table. Moments later another gentleman asked if he could get me a drink and I indicated the lady took my request for water just moments ago but could I also have a Passion Tea. Sure enough it was on the table in minutes. My server came a minute or so after that and took my order, paying close attention to my requests and repeated my order back to me to be certain…spot on my friend…(1 2 rack baby backs w sauce on the side and a baked potato w butter bacon bits if they had them, and some coleslaw, please and thank you). Dinner was on the table, exactly as ordered in 11 mins from ordering! Dinner was delicious! Ribs done just right; easy enough to get them off the bone and full of good charred flavour. A touch of sauce on the side and they were perfect. The “bacon bits” that went on my baked potato was nothing shy of 2 thick cut strips of bacon…no complaints here! Coleslaw was tangy and creamy…if I have to eat coleslaw this is the way I like it! Service was incredibly attentive throughout my stay with water tea refills being offered frequently and regular trips past the table had various servers and other staff asking if everything was good. A+ for attentiveness to the customer. Meal was moderately priced (quite reasonable for what I received) and I’m glad I ventured away from a typical chain restaurant for dinner. My fist time in Monrovia and my first dinner out in this area…definitely did not disappoint. Well done Jake’s Roadhouse … I’ll definitely be returning. Thank you and merry Christmas Happy Holidays!

One of the best breakfast spots worth the 40 minute drive for me. Their lemon pancakes with raspberry butter and raspberry syrup are . We had their rib eye steak, home fries, and sunny side up eggs, scrabled eggs, bacon, and hashbrowns, Their customer service is great.

This place is simply SPECTACULAR! It has an amazing old school diner feel, the food was incredible, the service was beyond great, and the prices we so affordable I was literally baffled! Can't wait to come back and try all of the other menu items!

We came here on a personal recommendation from a friend and was not disappointed. All pasta made in house melted in your mouth. Although priced at $25, try the beef carpaccio app not always on the menu. It's worth it. Also plenty of local wines available by the glass. Overall a great lunch.
