Located in Santa Anita Race Track, Frontrunner Restaurant provides a great view of the mountains and the race. You have to pay $8.50 for admission to the races and Frontrunner Restaurant, an extra $3.50 is worth the view.
Prices are high at Frontrunner. The pizza pictured is $12 and not worth the price. It's filled with lots of cheese and tomatoes. The crust is thicker and very chewy. The cheese was pretty gooey.
The second picture is their chocolate dessert. It has chocolate covered strawberries, almond brittle, white chocolate with raspberry and an almond roca like treat. I enjoyed the dessert but at $12 it's not cheap and not worth it.
Service is good. But they do not tell you they charge you for lemonade. This is a real pet peeve of mine. Since most people assume free refills for lemonade, sodas and ice tea, the servers should tell you or the menu should say no free refills. At $3 per lemonade, it's a huge deal, even getting a second glass.
I would not go back to Frontrunner. The food isn't great and the prices are high. But I would go back to watch the races. What a great view!!!
