El Monte Grill & Lounge Review

Friendly people, awesome food, and they were careful about my allergies. Loved it!

The ingredients are fresh. The food is really good.

Too many people filling orders one person bagging it and ringing up.
She needs help there. Food couldn't be better

Really friendly, favorite place to eat on campus and I eat there practically every day of the week while in school. They know my order and care about my allergies. Better than chipotle with more options and more flavor.

Just like Chipotle. If you like Chipotle, you'll like this place!

The food is delicious, but the staff is what makes this place the BEST!! Thank you to Suzanne, Erica, and to Neshawn!!!! You made our day with your kindness, warmth, and amazing customer service!!! We will be back!!!!

El Monte is good, think Chipotle experience, that about sums it up. Assembly line style, bowl or burrito, what meat or non meat do you want, brown or white rice, vegetables, beans, great pineapple salsa, and choice of chips at the end. Get a cookie, and sit down with the other college kids. Basically on the CBU campus. Good food, good seating.

Great place awesome food and great customer service

Very good food very good service good people friendly people

Best dining experience on the CBU campus. Awesome customer service and am overall lovely atmosphere to eat at with great food.

Think Chipotle but better. Same style bar, pick and choose what you want. The workers are polite. Although there may be a long line depending on what time you go, it always goes relatively quickly. There are great options and the price is reasonable. It is located next to California Baptist.

This place is great. It's just plain better than Chipotle. More options, fresher ingredients, friendly staff. Try the citrus topping. It adds such a unique flavor profile to the meal.

El Monte really stepped up their game this year compared to the last two. They haven't been doing anything drastically different as far as I can tell, but their food has been consistently fantastic throughout the entire year. In the past, it has been a gamble: you could get food that was incredibly delicious or absolutely disgusting, but more likely than not you would get something that was good, but not great. This year, everything I've ordered there has been exceptional. It has become my favorite place to eat on campus other than the ADC.

Tastier than Chipotle it's located in the Lancer (Cal Baptist University) plaza next to the CBU bookstore. Limited hours and it gets crowded during lunch hours. It is very similar to the Chipotle type of service and food, but the meats have a richer flavor. Since it's a mile from my workplace, it is a very convenient place to eat.
