The Derby - Arcadia
The Derby
Description
The Derby, a classic restaurant with 102 years of history, shows signs of aging with inconsistent service and food quality. Some diners found the experience disappointing, with undercooked steak and cold lamb. However, others still enjoy the old-school ambiance and reliable meals, such as the delicious Prime Rib and excellent sides. While reservations may not always be maintained and service can be hit or miss, The Derby still holds a special place in the hearts of many patrons, despite its imperfections. Overall, it remains a nostalgic dining option for those seeking a traditional, albeit occasionally flawed, experience.

A delightful experience. Sharon was both chipper and polite. We two priests enjoyed our lunch brunch Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5
This place is the definition of your classic old school steakhouse and it was such an incredible meal. Our server (Luciano, and I'm deeply sorry if I misspelled that) was phenomenal and guided us to select the perfect dishes, sides, wine, and dessert. The French onion soup was incredible and the exact food you imagine for a cold rainy day (even though we live in SoCal and have so few). The steak (beef tenderloin and scallops) and prime rib were flawless. Both the garlic mash and potatoes Romanoff were delicious. And omg the bread pudding was so warm, sweet, and just the best finish. The cheesecake was dense, but also a light flavor paired with fresh berries. Honestly the whole experience was just amazing and I cannot wait to go back.
Great place to sit down for a satisfying dinner with amazing service and some real ambience, as well as a real gem of Arcadia, Santa Anita horse racing, and Southern California history. Service: Dine in Meal type: Dinner Price per person: $50–100
I love this place. The food is delicious the service is amazing and it’s always a good time.
Wonderful ! Celebrated my mother’s birthday with the family. They made it extra special in every way possible. Our table was in front of the large warm fireplace which set the tone on this wintery February night . There is so much history here. Would definitely recommend Service: Dine in Meal type: Dinner
