5 Best Restaurants in El Monte, California You Need to Try Before Everyone Else Finds Them

El Monte, California — a city where the San Gabriel Mountains rise blue and gentle beyond the rooftops, where bougainvillea spills over stucco walls, and where the scent of tortillas, pho, and barbecue mingles in the evening air.
