The Best Restaurants in Monrovia, by the Record
Monrovia has sent exactly one place into the record so far: Luscious Dumplings, honored by Michelin Guide.

Rank 1. Luscious Dumplings
Chinese
A sign-in sheet on the sidewalk is your first clue that this strip-mall dumpling shop in Monrovia runs on its own terms. The menu is short, roughly half of it devoted to the namesake specialty, and the kitchen makes everything fresh each morning rather than pulling from a freezer. The pan-fried options tend to disappear fastest. It holds a Michelin Bib Gourmand, which explains the lines without quite preparing you for them.
