El Merendero — Restaurant in Pomona

Friend and I went for Breakfast. They serve lunch and dinner as well. Additionally they have a bakery attached so you can even get some sweet breads and other types of baked goods.

The restaurant is tucked away and you will have park in one of the parking areas, and the spaces fill up during busy times. So probably gonna have to walk a bit.

Overall the breakfast was pretty solid. You can get very basic breakfast (bacon, eggs and toast) or a nice Mexican style breakfast (chilequles, mechaca, rice, beans and tortillas. You will be served chips and salsa as part of your meal.

They have a full menu too and the items looked really good. I will have to stop by again for lunch or dinner. It looked like they serve their whole menu all day, so time doesn't look to matter.

Drinks; soda, tea, coffee and beer. You can get wine and some margaritas, but you will not get a mixed drink here.

Service: it's seat yourself at an open space. Also the servers are going to be busy and you may just need to flag them down as they may not have seen you sit down or If you have been helped yet. So just raise a hand or wave them down. Same thing when it's time to pay, just...

I like coming here for only one thing and that's... menudo, they have it everyday and on the weekends they have Pata. Other food is good too. One thing I don't like is on the weekends they make people wait for a long time cause the tables are dirty and not just one table but 4 tables, plus Security gets involved with the waiting list not paying attention who goes in and people just sits on tables cutting other people in line and not paying attention to that. It gets very frustrating and people tend to leave. I just think security should just focus being a security guard and either a staff member or at least a manager should focus on the list. Sometimes they are under staff no good. someone told me that they don't pay their staff that good, and the staff has a face of.... I hate my job but have no choice and who wants to go to a resturant that make u feel like your...

Came once thought it was okay came back twice and ordered the Asada Plato, the meat was still cold so I told the waitress. I swore she put that plate in the microwave because the way there was no evidence of that meat sliding off my plate or signs of them remaking it fresh, she put it in the microwave. Fuccing disgusting I'm glad my wife noticed because when I had mentioned the fact that I think she did my wife said, nah she did, I got upset n told my wife why didn't you say anything, but she knew I would throw a fit and make a scene. I just wanted to leave a review for those to be informed, even though I'm not coming back after that, I didn't say anything and they can have that chump change for all I care. If you want microwaved food be my guest but that's not how a restaurant should ever...
