J B Burgers — Restaurant in Monrovia

We love JB Burgers. Why? For one, the food is great. I get a steak sandwich all the time. No mayo, due to a diet constraint. Sometimes I'll get a bowl of chili ... or if I'm in the mood, I'll get a stack of french toast with my steak sandwich. Yes, that's a lot of food!

Steak sandwich - The french roll is good. The steak is a nice piece of meat and it has great flavor. They put tomatoes and lettuce. The tomatoes are good. The lettuce adds a crisp crunch, but there's a lot of white lettuce. The steak sandwich is a must!

My better half gets a guacamole burger. Tasty and the guac adds some healthiness AND the creamy texture replaces mayo, 1000 Island or any other sauce that's not healthy.

The chili is good! When it's chilly or on a rainy day, it's good comfort food!

French Toast - this is good stuff. They give you a lot and it's made well. Taste is really good and they use a thicker bread - yummm!

Now to the wonderful staff! 95% of the time we've had good to exceptional service. I order inside the restaurant - makes sense since we're eating inside. One time, this gal told me I could not order inside and she made me go outside to order. I told her I order inside all the time, but she didn't want to listen. I almost left, but I saw the familiar faces there, so I ordered outside. The next time I saw her there, she let me order inside.

I try to get to JB's at least once a week. They're my go to!

I highly...

If you grew up going to what we used to call "diners" -- simple places that have been around "forever", with a simple atmosphere -- just tables and chairs, nothing fancy, but a place with excellent food -- "real" food and big portions -- then JB Burgers is The Place for you. With so many of the old, great standbys sadly going out in our little downtown of Monrovia, CA, it is reassuring to see JB's still with us, serving up great food since 1974. The food is what I call "comfort food" but if you insist on getting a salad you can -- ha-ha. But what you will want is the delicious char-broiled hamburger and crispy fries or maybe a Reuben or patty-melt. One thing I love is that your sandwich comes wrapped in a wax paper "folder" which gives it old-fashioned charm and keeps it hot while you slowly devour it. And they serve a very reasonable breakfast with eggs and bacon and hash browns done to perfection. And lest you forget you are in California, you can get a great breakfast burrito or carne asado taco. If you are looking for good, real food to eat while sitting among a bunch of other happy, satisfied customers, swing by JB Burgers in Monrovia....

This place was recommended to me by a women who ghosted me. I'm glad I got to keep coming here. Glad I found out about this place before being ghosted 😉🙊😉

Best mexican burritos and breakfast burritos you can find in Monrovia.

Good size, good taste. I come here if I don't feel like cooking for 3 years now.

They have chicken or beef lunch burritos.

Breakfast burritos are ham, sausage, bacon, or everything that they call "The Mixed" burrito.

They also have bean and cheese burritos.

As you can see, burritos are my go to. I have no complaints about all of them here at JB Burgers.

All of their burritos pass my test, I order them all and liked them all. I have to decide which one to get when I visit again haha. I usually stick to the Mixed breakfast burrito or the chicken or beef lunch burritos.

Staff is always friendly. They have gotten my order wrong only 2 times after all these years. Thats a very low mistake rate and that was from a phone order. I think my accent can confuse many people so I don't blame them on...
