Taisho - Monrovia

I absolutely love this place. It's a gem right in the forefront of the beautiful monrovia mountain landscape. This place has been around for years and they sell great food. Staff is super friendly and they are always cranking out great grub. I love the chicken or beef bowl, their rice is always the softest and fluffy. Take a chance on this place you wont regret it.

I don’t know any other place that will give you like 12 pieces of salmon sashimi in a bowl for less than 18 dlls anywhere. It’s a great deal and the guys there are always nice to me.

Taisho has the best curry and rice! It's so tasty! It has chicken and carrots and is a bit spicy.

Good food. Bad vibes. This is a family favorite, we've been coming here for years. I will rethink about that. Only for the simple fact that when I ordered today Friday January 19th 2024 at approximately 330-4:00 p.m. Whoever is behind the cash register is a snot. I never had this experience at this establishment before. I got to experience a young little snotty thing behind the counter , taking my order. She was very rude pretentious .There was no reason, I ordered as normal but apparently I felt I wasn't going fast enough for her, I am older and my vision isn't the greatest. To top it off After giving me phouchy energy, she was the same person that gave me my order bags. She made sure to still have an attitude (her tone , the way she looked at me) and the way she just threw in the packets into my bag. It was quite spectacular, and absolutely unnecessary. Is that unusual for Los Angeles? Probably not.However, do I really need to deal with this when I have the freedom to choose the establishments I want to support?No.

Cheap quality of food. Lots of fat. The veggies tasted fresh and the sauce was good. Price is decent but it’s expected for what you get.
