Best Restaurants that are Worth The Drive in Baldwin Park

Azabu is our go to for date night. The service is always great and the food is amazing. Highly recommend the Peruvian scallops, shishito peppers, carpaccio yellowtail and grilled octopus. The drinks are consistent and delicious, we will continue to visit and wouldn’t mind eating here weekly.

This experience was outstanding, my wife was diagnosed with celiac and since then is being very hard to dine together because of her condition. Most dining places do not specialize in catering for people like her, but they find it upsetting when you questioned their menu or cooking etiquette. Last night we were celebrating our 22 year anniversary and my birthdate, I found this place through Go Gluten Freely.com and they recommended this place as the best place. So without no hesitation I booked and drove 45 minutes to surprise my wife. You should have seen her face at the beginning and at the end and all the way home she spoke nothing but wonderful words, saying I found my haven on earth. Music, atmosphere, service, taste, and lots of smiles. Our server was wonderful, she even gave us a very tasteful dessert with vanilla ice cream with two gluten-free macaroons that said on each Happy Anniversary and Happy Birthday…what a nice touch! This place found two fans for life and thank you from the bottom of my heart for making helping me make my wife’s night and more future dates with my wife. For all of you with Celiac, trust me when I say that you could not find a better and more safer and perfect place to dine than Oceans & Earth anywhere I promise! From: Rainier and Alison Gracia

We have been coming here since it opened along with its sister restaurant Cha Cha's, just a few doors down. Our favorite spot if it is just the two of us is the bar. The bartenders have changed over the years, but the caliber of service has not. If you arrive late for a drink & dinner, you are never rushed...actually I hadn't even realized we were the last as my husband and I asked about different liquors we hadn't noticed before. You can't go wrong with the Almafi Fizz, my favorite and one of their signature drinks. Their food is outstanding, love the scallops! Last night we went for my husband's birthday...it was Monday night special, lasagna, garlic bread & Caesar salad for I believe was $20. I can eat, yet I took half of it home! My husband loves their chicken parmesan...he too took half home and was pleased that they presented him with tiramisu & a candle for his birthday...the extra touch appreciated! Yes, I would give them a 10! We will be back next week for a relaxing dinner or maybe Cha Cha's for a little more noise... let's face it, tacos, tequila brings the noise level up!

2nd time visit, same results. Great food, drinks, and service!

Worth a visit for breakfast whether you're shopping the LA Flower Mart or not! I changed up and went with the shrimp n grits. The grits were better than most in town and the dish was flavor-packed! I could go for more grits in the serving though. My date had the crab benedict which she loved, with the exception of the biscuit. I had to agree, it was a little too dense. You can't miss with the chicken and waffles here. I also tried the Rose Mojito for the first time and the second time, lol! Really good, so be careful!
