For this review, we asked teachers and faculty to recommend their favorite local restaurants, so we tried them out and this is our review.

The Salad Box Elements, Mr. Washington & Mrs. Larson

I loved this place the most because I love anything organic. I particularly find fruits and granola tasty. I enjoyed this place a lot. I give this acai bowl a 10/10. - Leeza
Although I love fruits and organic food, the color of it grossed me out. I am picky when it comes to food and I didn’t like how bright it was. I did, however, enjoy the fruit on top and the granola. I rate this a 7/10. - Ney

I don’t go to Cheesecake Factory often and I’m not a big fan of cheese cake. I took a few bites, but didn’t enjoy it much. The burger was really good even though I prefer burgers in salad wrap with extra lettuce, and though I don’t eat a lot of bacon, the burger was a delightful guilty pleasure. I rate the burger a 9/10 and the cheesecakes a 5/10 each. - Ney
I've only been to the Cheesecake Factory once and my second time was a great experience. The burger was really good, but the cheesecakes were amazing. The whipped cream and chocolatey Oreo crumbs made the creamy Oreo cheesecake scrumptious. Overall, I give it a 10/10 - Leeza

I personally love tacos de lengua and enjoy all the condiments on it along with the salsa. The cow tongue had a chewy and soft texture, and great flavor. I grew up eating this, so it is one of my favorite meals. I rate it 8/10 stars because I’ve had better in LA and local taqueros in Covina. - Ney
I also enjoy tacos de lengua, but personally I don’t like onion, so I couldn’t enjoy them as much as I would have liked to. Overall, it was really good. The tortillas were warm and crispy around the edges. They also had the right amount of green chile and guac. I give it 8/10 stars.
