Let’s Support A New Local Small Restaurant 🤍

I don’t normally post things like this, but I wanted to give a shout-out to a new local business that I think deserves a chance.

A family I know recently opened “Lidaar Mediterranean Grill” here in Rancho Cucamonga. Like every new small business, they’re putting in crazy hours, working every day, and doing everything they can to make it succeed. Starting a restaurant isn’t easy, especially with so many big chain restaurants around.
If you’re looking for somewhere new to eat this week, I’d really encourage you to give them a try. One meal may not seem like much, but for a small family-owned business, it genuinely makes a difference.
Even if Mediterranean food isn’t something you eat often, step out of your comfort zone—you might find your new favorite spot. And if you enjoy it, leave them a review or tell a friend. Those small things help more than people realize.
I’d hate to see another local family pour their heart, savings, and countless hours into a business only to have it disappear before the community gets to know them.

Let’s support local whenever we can. ❤️

Lidaar Mediterranean Grill
📍 7200 Archibald Ave.

Why Our School District Should Record Board Meetings

Not everyone can make it to in-person school board meetings. Parents juggle work and kids, seniors struggle with transportation, people with disabilities face real barriers—and honestly, most of us just can't rearrange our entire schedule for a meeting.

I started a petition asking Alta Loma School District to record and archive their board meetings online. These meetings directly affect our schools and our kids' education. Everyone deserves the chance to stay informed and have a say, not just the handful who can show up in person.

Other districts are already doing this. The data shows it actually works—more people engage, trust goes up, and the school board becomes more accountable. It's not complicated, and it's not unreasonable.

If you think parents and community members should have equal access to information about how their schools are run, consider signing and sharing. Have you run into situations where you wished you could get information about local decisions but just couldn't? I'd genuinely like to hear what barriers you've seen.

Áine is going to be in a book!

Kelly Mac Studios in Rancho Cucamonga, CA is making a book called "Love at First Sight(hound)." It is to raise money for SAGE (Save a Galgo Espanol). These are the two pictures she's posted of Áine as sneak peeks. I'm not sure what pic(s) will be in the book.

First of all, I just wanted to show off the pictures. Secondly, I wanted to let everyone know about Kelly Mac. Thirdly- there's a voting contest to see what dog will be on the cover, so I'm here to beg for votes. There is a $5 minimum to vote, and then it's $1 for each additional vote. The proceeds go to SAGE. I'm including the link for Áine's page. If you click the logo on the top left, it'll take you to the homepage, where you can see the competition, pre-order the book, or pay to have a pet memorial added to the book.

I appreciate any votes! Not only is it a good cause, but I think our girl is cover-worthy. ;-)

Law suit against city

Hello everyone, I have a question.

Back in February, I reported an issue to city that the tree root on the sidewalk is bumping up the pavement (specifically the joint of two pavements) that caused one side raise over an inch. Since it was city properly we couldn't do anything about it but to report it. I also told them I've seem multiple people trip over the raise which could cause serious injury.

They came out, assessed, and said needs further assessment.

Fast forward to April, my kid bump over the same exact spot and chipped her front tooth. The dentist said the tooth is not savable at this point that she would need an implant when she turns 18.

Because the incidence is caused by city negelegance (at least that's we think so) and is irrecoverable, we are gonna sue the city.

Question is Does anyone know any good Personal Injury Lawyer in the area or if a different type lawyer is needed?

Thank you for any information!

New to town!

Hi All!

Long story short, my wife [28F] and I [28M] just moved to Rancho and are completely new to the area! I should also add that we’re loving it here so far.

We’re new parents as well, and have been looking to get out and meet some new friends in the community. I’ve been looking at some run clubs and stuff like that but I figured I could also ask the good people of Reddit what they think! And yes, we’ve been to Victoria Gardens and Ontario Mills, lol. (People keep recommending this to me like it’s some sort of secret?)

Thank you all so much for any advice or tips you might have!

Thanks!

Lost Cat

It’s a long shot but mom and I lost our baby boy Diesel last night, Jun 30. He is only a year old and very scared around strangers so he will likely not come to you, but maybe to food if you leave it near him. His collar is black with a little bell unless it snapped off as it’s made to do if caught on something.

Please let me know if you see him around so we can search the area. I know his fate is probably decided by wildlife but I’m hoping he found a place to hide and just doesn’t know the way home.

I also posted on NextDoor if you use it.

Looking for a swim club

Hello I was just wondering if there is anything similar to a running club here in Rancho or nearby but for swimmers. I have flat feet so I can't necessarily run far but I'd like to get in the pool. I know how to swim competitively but I'm out of shape.

Thanks!

South Florida to The IE!

California dreaming and looking to live in a new environment. Currently a licensed marriage family Therapist is looking to move to California specifically Rancho Cucamonga area in IE. I’m in my early 40s. I really don’t feel LA is my thing a clever I like mountains, hiking, traveling to new places, and I figured living essentially in the inland empire would allow me to have access to Las Vegas LA and everything’s surrounding. Any advice is greatly appreciated. Best places to move to in the area. I know that I need to stay above the 210 per YouTube lol. What is it that you love about living in the inland empire what are some things that you really can’t stand? Also, I won’t be able to be licensed in California until October 2027 so between now and then I’ll need to maintain my Florida license and we either remotely in Florida or find something out there. Any suggestions are also appreciated.

Best places to park to see July 4th fireworks from Epicenter Sports Complex?

My husband and I may come to see the fireworks show that night. We'd be coming from out of the area and I imagine might not get to Rancho Cucamonga till 8pm. I don't want us to get there and have no place to park. Can anyone recommend any good places to park and watch the fireworks? We can walk a bit but probably wouldn't want to walk more than a mile to see the fireworks (especially if we need to bring chairs with us).

Stolen Ref Clothing

Hello all,

Super long shot here- we had our bags stolen out of our car last at the Springhill Suites at Haven Ave, Rancho Cucamonga, CA 91730.

I'm asking people to please keep an eye out for the clothing.. it's not just street causal clothing. It's all of our referee gear. (How ironic with World Cup happening) So it's very clear to find if it has been thrown in a busy, trash, etc... The clothes would be bright colors, like red, blue, green, yellow, pink; all with stripes! I'm sure who ever stole all 4 bags didn't really come up since it's literally ref gear. But we lost so many treasures and collectibles from the years of traveling and reffing.

Yes police report was made. Yes camera video footage is being released to us. And yes we're looking too. But being that we're out of town people (some from East Coast) this is all we had. All the stuff we brought to use to work...

Anyways, hopefully some of our stuff is found. Mainly the ref clothes. The rest can be replaced :(

Thank you for your time.

06.25 Update Ref shirts and their bags were found! Shoes gone, shorts too but guess the shirts weren't good enough to keep. That's fine. Coins are gone. Not sure what these people will do with flip coins 🤷🏻‍♀️
