Claim Jumper - Monrovia

I went here opening day over 20 years ago. Always good food, and plenty of it. You can't go wrong at Claim Jumper. Always great for large parties too (or by yourself! .

Deliciously crafted dishes and portions fit for a king (or queen)! You will definitely get what you paid for! Most of our party ordered various sandwiches and burgers which were huge and all came with ample amounts of sides like; fries, onion rings, etc. I was the odd one out ordering, The Tri-tip prospector, that came with; tri-tip, a lightly fried chicken filet and 2 sides. I chose mashed potatoes with brown gravy and roasted vegetables. I also ordered a wedge salad, on the side. We were there celebrating my adult son's birthday so they brought him out a GIGANTIC piece (it's actually the size of a cake) of the chocolate mother lode cake! This piece is so huge, we were able to cut it into 6 large pieces, for each person to have! Sometimes a novelty piece of cake, like this, looks great but lacks in flavor however, this was unbelievably moist and delicious! Our table also ordered a couple other desserts; the cheesecake and the butter cake. Both of these desserts were to die for! Our only complaint was anything with bacon, seemed to be way over the top, extremely salty. All in all, everything was so good, we were able to overlook the saltiness. Highly recommend it!

Great good great service... Stay away from their alcohol though, it's watered down and not worth the price.

Ribs here are great! Waitress Charlene was absolutely lovely and made sure we were doing well, without bothering us too often (or right after taking a big bite.. . Very appreciated.

The candide bacon was cold and my family didnt like. The calamari was to die for. It was the kind that actually was very crunchy and not as chewy as most calamari happen to be. It reminded me of alligator. Now the reason why I'm giving a 3 star rating is because our server seemed to rush us. I asked for no ice in my water and gave me ice water. My little 6 year cousin wanted strawberry lemonade and he gave it to her in an adult glass cup and asked if it was ok, which my aunt replied it was fine. Later on that same glass ended up spilling on the table and shattering, (due to the complaining of the cold bacon and it being taken away from the table and soon the bill), the little girl was not cut up or had any drink spilled on her, she was fine and he constantly asked if she was okay, so that was great. Then he gave her a plastic cup with the strawberry drink, which should have been done in the beginning. I had the impossible burger as well and it was so freaking DELICIOUS!
