Astro Family Restaurant, Los Angeles, California Restaurant Details

Food:

When I first walked in I had the feeling I was in Jersey. Has the whole look and feel. That's not a bad thing either. A diner should look like a diner.. We sat in a window booth and it was OK. Lumpy seat but like I said...a diner is a diner. . Menu was standard diner fare. I ordered a bacon cheeseburger. Medium. With onion rings and a side salad. The sald was meh. It consisted of 90% iceberg lettuce and that was mostly hard white center of the head. The rest was carrot shavings. Barely a sald. I asked for blue cheese and balsamic vinaigrette in the side. They brought me a full cup of watery Bleu and a bottle of Balsamic Vinegar . Then came the burger....cooked to an inch of its life and full of gristle. The onion rings were bearable... Barely. The breading was flour based and too thin. They also over cooked em so the outside was a bit burnt and the inside was sloppy soft.
My girlfriend had the meatloaf (which the waitress -a very nice older woman- highly recommended) and she too two bites of it and left the rest. The gravy was definitely generic canned and it showed. 1 burger plate, 1 meatloaf and a couple cokes....$37 plus tip. The service was actually pretty good but in the end the food was just not worth the price. Ate half just because I was really hungry. There were 8 LAPD eating there so I had figured it was pretty good but either they get a different menu or they were investigating a crime against stomachs. Would not recommend.

Food:

I came here on a whim hoping to grab a quick, cheap breakfast. But I regret that.

The atmosphere makes it seem like the food should be cheap and delicious. It's not. The prices are about the same as Home, down the street, but the food is very plain, and just not very good at all. Next time I will just go to Home.

Food:

Stood there for 10 minutes and no one was around to seat me. Then sat myself and no one came to the table. Finally we moved tables and someone came with menus. They got my order wrong, but the food was alright. I don't really get this place.

Good service, good food! I was really impressed with the overall feel of the place. A very charming decor, friendly service and acceptable prices as well. This was my first visit, and I definitely plan on returning time and time again!
