Any good family friendly restaurants in Glendale?

    1. I think Polka would qualify. Small Polish restaurant in a strip mall, very good comfort food, reasonable, family owned.
      There are people on this board who like Elena's Greek Kitchen. (I think that's the name)
      I haven't had good luck there, but have been in a long time. Others say the food is good and reasonable.

        1. Carousel on Brand Blvd.

              Re Corousel: family yes, friendly can be, good not really.
              Raffi's place would be my choice for Middle Eastern.

              Anything specific you are looking for?

              • Max’s Restaurant of Manila
                313 W Broadway (across the street from the Galleria)
                Glendale
                (818) 637-7751

                Great fried chicken and other Filipino favorites.

                  1. La Cabinita for Mexican, and Zeke's for BBQ - both in Montrose. Skaf's for Lebanese.

                      1. re: terim

                        La Cabanita and Zeke's (Montrose location only) always seem to feature happy families having fun. And why not? The surroundings are attractive, and the food is tasty and satisfying at both places.

                      2. La Cubana for Cuban cuisine

                          1. Clancy's on Central Ave
                            Panda Inn on Wilson Ave
                            Porto's (not quite a formal restaurant setting but there's some good eats for the family there)
                            Dish in La Cañada
                            Black Cow Cafe in Montrose
                            Outback Steakhouse on Brand Blvd
                            BJ's on Brand Blvd
                            Islands on Orange Ave
                            Shiraz on Glendale Ave
                            Elena's on Glendale Ave
