My family loves this little spot in Diamond Bar with its authentic food and great service. Each meal is made to order and ends with freshly made tortilla chips with sprinkle of cinnamon. Try the Olvera Street Taquitos and Tortilla Soup!

I have tried every sushi place that is worth trying in my neighborhood. Everyone good new ones, I will go try. This one is it!! I have introduced this to my friends and family. I have had lunch and dinner here. Sat at the booth, the table, the private dinning and the sushi bar. At every price point, the chef will not disappoint. It may not rival the great places in Japan but it does come close enough to the fish quality that has traveled thousands miles. Hands down, this is the place for good Japanese food outside of J town and Japan. I really should be so honest because there is already a good wait for lunch when I come here. If you don't know what to order, look at the specials on the board by the sushi bar. That will be a great start.

This is the cutest cafe and breakfast spot in the inland empire. Right when you walk in, you'll want to stay awhile. The decor is spot on, with casual industrial touches and wood finishes making it seem elegant but also comfortable. There's adorable touches like a dream wall where people have written down what they want to be when they grow up.
Food is delicious, albeit a little pricy. Had the avocado toast and it was delicious. Coffee is also super good!
Service was friendly and never rushed us.
This would make a perfect date spot or girls weekend brunch spot.

Nice folks will prepare a nice hot or cold sandwich for breakfast or lunch on your choice of one of many kinds of bagels. Tiny place, some outdoor seating, across the street from a college.

Combination dinners are a great value which include beef teriyaki and chicken teriyaki or Chilean Seabass and California roll. Include soup, salad, rice, house hand roll and fruit. $13.50 and up. Restaurant is a good size and can accommodate large groups. Nice take-out menu also from $5.75 on above.
6. Diamond Palace Chinese Seafood Restaurant

Reviewed By FGTraveler - Los Angeles, California
The food menu is extensive with a variety of foods, from mild to very spice and from beef to fish and everything in between. During the day, they have some specials; when you spend a certain amount of money you receive a free dish, peking duck, shrimp, or a couple other ones. The food always tastes as made to order. Also, they have an extensive selection of fresh fish (fish tanks cover one of the walls of the restaurant) and is cooked to order - it can't get fresher than that.
When parking, make sure not to park at the left side of the parking lot since that area belongs to the burger place that shares the parking lot. The owner of the burger place will get your car towed in an instance.

We stumbled upon this great place, and stopped by because it was bright and fresh. Ordered the bacon fried rice and it was great. 3 of us shared that, and then the waffle came. That was delicious as well, with Macha green tea drizzled on top, and red bean (but there were so many flavors -- it was hard to pick). We loved it.
The milk teas were delicious, and we ordered 2.
The non-adventurous member of our group ordered the egg/bacon sandwich, and absolutely loved it.
The waiters were so friendly and had to describe the many items on the menu. They were patient and kind, because it was all new to us. Our group didn't really know Taiwanese food, but it was delicious, and we vowed to come here again, even though we are nowhere near here. It's a rather new restaurant, and so it was busy, but not packed yet.

Enjoyed pizza and Anti-pasta salad. I hadn't had it for several years as the kids are grown and no longer in sports. We use to have our pizza parties here. I stopped by on a Friday night (forgetting it was a Friday night) but was able to call in the order and then pick it up. While they were extremely busy, my order was ready and it was very good. We ate there again about 2 weeks later. It just might be our go to for pizza again.

At In-N-Out Burger, quality is everything. Stop by to enjoy our menu of hamburgers, cheeseburgers, french fries and shakes. In-N-Out makes fast food the old fashioned way.

What's there to say about In-N-Out that hasn't already been said? Great food, limited menu, fast service and it's all fresh. Then there's that secret menu that's not all that secret.

We loved the service here . Melissa S. was truly outstanding. Very friendly and efficient. We got the new cross-cut ribs and from the moment I put the first one in my mouth I was shocked at the sodium level of these ribs. I even tried another one of the sauces and it was even worse. They ruin the actual good flavor by way overdoing the sodium in their sauces. If they cut it in half it would still taste amazing but would not be so scary eating it. If I were a heart patient I would run for the hills. It started triggering my acid reflux if was so strong. That's too bad because other meals we had here was truly excellent. We will definitely come back but not for the ribs. Love the cheery atmosphere and for goodness sake turn that AC down a bit. I swear you could hang meat in there. LOL!!! Should not need to bring in a coat when it is 90* outside.
