Love this place. Have loved it since I was a kid and still love it as an adult. Fantastic food, great atmosphere, and extremely friendly staff. I come in once a week to get takeout for me and my grandparents and I always stay for a drink at the bar while I wait. Arnie is a super cool dude and makes a great cocktail. Cannot recommend this place enough. Fair prices for good food with a very diverse menu. You can take a big group here and there is something on the menu for everyone.

While everything on the menu is great, the one thing you must try is their Steak Picado. This is one of my favorite dishes from any restaurant. It is chopped up pieces of steak simmered in a Spanish tomato sauce with bell peppers and onions and it tastes magnificent. I go here once or twice a week and frequently tell myself I’ll order something else besides the steak Picado and everything I end up ordering the steak Picado.

My one suggestion is that they add a gluten free bread or bun option for their burgers and sandwiches, but otherwise this place is perfect

food was yummy with a little expensive prices and a cozy atmosphere

A friend told us to try Magpie's Grill and I'm glad we went! We enjoyed our meal at Magpie's Grill. The large selection of fried appetizers gave me eater's block and I just couldn't decide, so, thankfully they had a pick 3. The zucchini strips, large onion rings and mozzarella sticks were dipped in a light flaky batter and so delicious. The chicken wings only come with one type of sweet and spicy sauce which is really good but, I'm a fan favorite of spicy so, of course, I had to have some hot sauce on the side. The wings were really large sized which I don't see too often. 🙂
My daughter had chili without cheese, which they add fresh cut onions and garlic bread was piping hot which she told me was very good and the best of all was that every single staff member was a delight, from the hostess to the cook. I know when we're back in Glendale/La Cañada area we'll stop by again. It was a great little place.

Really nicely cooked food here, with some interesting menu choices like schnitzel and bratwurst. The schnitzel is excellent, and the accompanying German potato salad is really good. I've also tried the 'pollo pleaso', which is a fantastic grilled chicken sandwich.
Staff is calm and professional. Overall a reliable take on a classic German -American diner. Full bar also!

A good neighborhood diner, with very good food. The mango chicken salad is a winner. Burrito good and big. Just about everything on the menu is good. Some waitpeople are great, others just so-so. Value in food offered.
