Best Steak Restaurants in Baldwin Park

By far one of the best Sushi restaurants I have been to AND I’ve been to many around the world. The service was great, waiter made recommendations (spot on), food quality excellent as well as the flavor.

Delectable and delicious! All the ingredients are fresh and crisp! The meats are juicy and well prepared. Our waitress and the staff were very attentive despite the restaurant being so full. The only advice I would give this restaurant is make way for your visitors. We had so much staff cutting us off while walking to the salad bar or the restroom. The one thing I have remembered from very prestigious restaurants is the staff giving the patrons the right of way in the hallways etc. Other than this, it was a wonderful evening with amazing food!

Our first Thanksgiving at The Derby and it is official, it is going to be our new Thanksgiving tradition. We lost our mother last year on 12/31/23 and we spent the last 22 years going to pick her up, 80miles away, and going out to eat. She hated cooking but loved good food and dinning out. This was our first Thanksgiving in 22 years that we stayed close to home and without our mom. First words out of our mouths, when we tasted the food was, “mom would have loved The Derby”, we, three grabbed our delicious cocktails and toasted to our mom’s honor. From the ease of making reservations to the prompt seating when we arrived, we enjoyed every minute. The meal was both traditional and they also offered the usual prime rib and steaks. We opted for the Turkey Thanksgiving meal. It was a generous plate of succulent turkey and the best stuffing I’ve ever tasted. Included sweet potatoes , perfectly al dente green beans, a tangy home made cranberry sauce , mashed potatoes and decadent gravy. It was all so divine. We ordered a side of Marsala mushrooms (I almost sipped the juices from the bowl because it was THAT good). The pumpkin pie Made with love and you could taste every spice. The nightcap was The Derby’s version of a spiked eggnog… oh my… I could have had three of these as my dessert…amazing. Our favorite part of our evening by far was Marta our server. She was cheerful, attentive, personable, and made us feel like we were her only table…and it was obvious she had many..yikes, the place was busy, but she made our dining experience memorable as did the rest of the staff, clearing plates, filling waters, etc. We’ve been to Ruth’s Chris, Maestros , and others for Thangsving over the 22 years we went out wit mom. Not one came close to TheDerby. Mom, would definitely be proud we found The Derby for Thanksgiving.

I love fogo de chao. The lamb came out a little more gamey than i remembered but it was still good. the service was great but servers with the meat would miss us sometimes (i was at a large table where they visited one end of the table and my husband and i were at the other end). They would check in with the people at the front of the table but then either we would miss them as we didn't realize they approached our table, or we would be looking at them to acknowledge us and they would just walk away lol. It WAS Thanksgiving and we still ate to our hearts content. My picky kids were happy as well. It seemed they were a little slow in bringing out the pao de queijo but again, it was a holiday and i'm sure they were doing everything they could to bring it over to us. We eventually received it for the whole table and brought more when we asked. Overall the experience was great. Despite how crowded it was, the noise level was fine. The sweet potato casserole was YUM but wasn't a fan of the stuffing.. it tasted too much like grainy box mix that wasn't mixed in well enough. IDK what the soup was but it was yuuuummmm.

When my family from Arizona visit, this is their requested restaurant. It’s amazing in every way. The hand made pasta, fresh ingredients and attention to every detail is amazing. This time our table had lasagna, salmon risotto, spaghetti with delicious meatballs, two salads, minestrone, focaccia.
