Our Story

Our Beginning

Our Beginning

The story of John’s Place began August 15, 1980 when newlyweds John and Jenny opened a walk up burger stand called Imperial Burger in Bellflower, California. Their goal was simple. Work hard and serve the community with food they were proud of at everyday prices.
Growth Through the Years

Growth Through the Years

Almost 40 years have passed and not much has changed. With several restaurants throughout Southern California and more opening planned for the future, the success of John’s Place has surpassed the founders’ original dreams.

A Family Tradition

We invite you to come in, enjoy the moment and if you get lucky, you might just spot those retired newlyweds sitting at a booth smiling and greeting their customers that have become like family throughout the years!
