“Edited for recent visit on 2/7/24:Finally got to try the malai pasta. It did not disappoint in flavor and was fantastic. I think adding some meatballs would further elevate this dish with some protein. Lamb sliders were also super tasty. The pizza was fine but was made better by dipping it in the malai pasta sauce. The staff were gracious and helpful. Significantly improved from my previous visit. Would come back.Malai pasta: 4.5/5Lamb sliders: 4.5Green tikka pizza: 3.5Old review:I’ll admit we didn’t have the pasta. Between the pizza, wings, and something else we had we left feeling pretty underwhelmed. We asked a couple next to us about their wings which were different than ours and their response was a similar “meh”.Indian food and Italian food should be full of flavors, this fusion of flavors seemed to be meant for the palate of someone who had never had any ethnic food. I appreciate the attempt, but I felt it was poorly executed. I might give them a try again as it has been awhile.“
“First let me say The Office I love you and love that you are woman owned I have been going on and off for years. 2nd please know I am cheap and hardly ever buy my own drinks yesterday I was waiting for a friend in the hood so I decided to drink and wait I got a Pacifico draft it was super cold and crisp so thank you but $9.50 for a glass of beer? I mean I love money too and the place was not empty so you know what you are doing but after the $2 tip on that 9 $ beer I cut my fat ass off thank you to the chef that gave me some amazing soup I appreciate that also to the man that talked to me for more then 10 mins without offering to buy me a drink I won't be calling you but bless your heart the music was epic! Cheers y'all“
“Great dining experience! A very good place for lunch, especially at happy hour time.

“My Dad and I have gone there twice so far and will definitely be returning. The service was perfect. Food and drinks are brought to your bay in a timely manner. Help with the simulator was available throughout the entire reservation. I recommend this place for friends, family, or even individual practice.“
“My husband was staying at usc hospital and me and my son would pass by everyday to go to our hotel and one day we stopped and ate an early dinner. The service was exceptional and everyone was really nice and attentive. The Mac and cheese bites were my favorite appetizer!! So good. The pizza I had was really good and my son said his pasta was good. The older gentleman with the accent was really sweet. Under the circumstances that we found this place wasn’t great, but glad we could sit and enjoy a great meal at a great place and people. Thank you!“
“Super friendly service here! The lady running the bar and register was chatty and fun and friendly. I tried their spicy vegan sausage and I liked that it was something they made in house. They have a few vegan hot dogs and you can choose your toppings. Tasted really good. Also got a yummy pretzel. I really recommend the chipotle aioli. Small parking lot available.“
“Love this place! Came here the entire football season and it was such a great vibe for sports. They even have a cute patio area with TVs which I'll be taking advantage of A LOT this summer. Full bar and the food is tasty - great happy hour in general but they also have a great taco Tuesday and $10 pizza Wednesdays. Highly recommend! Shout out to Jordan and Kyla because they're always so kind and take good care of us. :)“
“Perfection. This tiny Monrovia brewery produces the world's premier beers. The sour crumble seasonals are world-class incredible. Their Starhazer IPA is immaculate. Help yourself to free, fresh popcorn. This place has it all! Go. See. Taste....N' don't forget to tip your tap professional.“
“Our server was top notch, very aware of our table....a joy to have as wait staff! Food was incredible, prep was top notch, portion sizes were varied. General atmosphere was tiki lounge lite, a fun, Cali casual/island theme very comfy. Bartender knew her way around mixology....no complaints!“
“Haven't been to Gold Room in years, better than I remember it. Small dive bar off Sunset. Bartender Tony was friendly, attentive and quick to take our drink order. His cocktails were very very well made. He takes his time and you can tell enjoys the craft. Tried the Double Trouble and Pineapple Express. Double Trouble is absolutely delicious - 10/10. Pineapple Express was just as good, but def loaded (has mezcal & tequila). It'll have you feeling good real quick. Drink prices are reasonable priced for LA. Same for their daily happy hour menu. Very solid beer menu too. They have a jukebox you can pay to control the music which is kinda cool. Get to hear a variety of music genres cause of it. Solid bar for a quick beer or cocktail.“
“Stop by here on a Saturday afternoon while scouting for the Kaiser Vision Essentials building that was supposedly located nearby and on top of that, was also an excuse to use the Metro Rail to gauge the walking distance between the station and both of these businesses. The address notes it as being located on Catalina Ave so I was under the impression that the business 'front' would be facing the street like how the other businesses that line up the corner closest to the Colorado Blvd but it's not. It's actually wedged between a take out American BBQ restaurant and an open air parking lot. On the side of the building that belongs to the same BBQ restaurant is a 12x12 tiny ass logo on the building with an arrow pointing you down this non-descript alleyway. This non-descript alleyway looks like any other industrial alleyway: grey concrete, surrounded by open-ring fences, telephone poles, and random ass vehicles parked on the side closest to the open air parking lot. Once you've walked down far enough, there's a small black signage to your left pointing to a non-descriptive black building where there's a small flight of stairs that you walk down and that's T Boyle Tavern. Once inside, you're greeted with this woodsy, rustic inn type of decor. Front of bar is quite literally directly in front of you as you walk down the flight of stairs. There are several wooden high top tables and chairs just before you reach the bar area. TV's line that entire wall plus to the two sides of the establishment that are tuned into sports. Men's restrooms are to the left 'corner' from the front entrance and women's restrooms are to the right 'corner' from the front entrance. There's a small flight of stairs on the women's restrooms side that leads up to presumably a part of the open air parking lot. Well gins are $6, while well whiskeys and well vodkas are $12. To the right of the bar area are some TV's that lists the beers that they have on tap for the week. They ranged between $6-10. They serve regular food, mostly finger foods like burgers, sandwiches, fries, amd chicken fingers. The menu will be given to you when you head up to the front of bar. I ordered a Bourbon Old Fashioned, a Vodka Soda and a Gin and Tonic. Then I ordered a beer whose name I forgot off the TV menu. I think they tasted fine. They can't make the 'fancier' cocktails because they don't have the ingredients for them so if that's your cup of tea, this is not your spot for that. This is more of a beers on tap with some basic cocktails and well drinks. Ambiance. This place feels like one of those spots that you'd take large groups of friends amd family to watch sports and knock back a few brewski's. It was quite dead in the afternoon save for a few elderly family groups present that were apparently relatives of the bartenders. They take credit cards. Enough said. Service. The male bartenders seemed friendly enough. Parking. I don't normally talk about parking but because this place is located in Pasadena, where there's more parking restrictions relative to other areas, you'd want to know where you can park cheaply or free, ideally. Street parking lining up and down Catalina Ave are two hours max between 9AM-6PM. Any time after that should be free. There's the open air parking lot that is not cheap but not DTLA expensive. I didn't catch a good glimpse of the rates unfortunately but I vaguely recall it being stupid expensive for just a few minutes of parking but if you pay the daily rate maximum, it's in the high single digits. All in all, I think it's better to just take the Metro Rail and take the scenic 20-minute walk over to the place than to drive here, at least during the day time. Not too sure how the area would look later at night. I came away with a pretty positive experience of this place and would probably stop by again to try out their food on my next visit.“
“They have multiple large screens around the dining room and in patio. Lots of fun to watch your favorite team with friends. Since they're owned by North Woods Inn, they serve some of the same foods, including red cabbage and Iceberg lettuce with blue cheese dressing salads and their incredible cheese bread (at a lower price).The price I'm quoting below, per person includes one or two drinks (alcohol).Parking: Never a problem getting a spot, even when they're busy.“
“Let me start by saying this is one of my favorite bars the service is phenomenal Chris big Mike Joanna best friend and the new girl Chantel aka Alex is amazing the bar is extremely clean staff is friendly and know what you like for me it’s like a 4.5 out of 5 but 100% will be a 5 if they had twisted tea thank you 626 bar for a good time all the time“
“Check this place out whether you're a professional or want to play for fun with family and friends! (All ages!) Pool tables are in great condition. It's CASH ONLY $7/hr for one person or $12/hr for two or more people on a table. This place looks a thousand times better after the remodel and has a very chill vibe. Loooove the lighting and portraits they have on their walls. Their hours may be a bit off because they're having issues with the city and a zoning code, as of now they're open 2pm-1am but I believe will start closing at 10pm in the near future (hopefully not for long). You can always call and ask ahead of time about hours or how busy it is. They have a few new lady bartenders that are very nice and provide great costumer service. Also, cue repair Monday-Wednesday with Jose. It starts getting busy at night so definitely stop by before 7:30pm to grab a table on time, you might get lucky anytime after or get stuck on the waiting list for awhile but you can always grab a beer or soda and play darts while you wait. They don't serve food but you're welcome to bring outside food and eat by the bar (no food by the pool tables). They also don't allow outside drinks but they do sell bottled water, soda, bottled beer and HOPEFULLY beer on tap once they finish repairing the taps. Overall, amazing place to have a great time and play some pool!“
“My friend and i came here on Christmas Day and i was so glad they were open.Andrew is our bartender and he was very attentive to all our orders. He made every drink we ordered and they were actually very satisfying. The portions were all right and they tasted exactly as how they should.Food choices were limited to chips but there is a satisfying amount of entertainment from dart boards, a jukebox and a pool table. The patrons that come here are pretty mellow and not like the crazy loud obnoxious crowds that I run into at some bars.You can go for a smoke in the back where there are tables, chairs and ashtrays to use.The restrooms were clean and well maintained.Lots of parking in the back through Wells Fargo Bank.“
“Lots of activities take place it's not your typical bar. Monday nights feature country line dancing for all levels from beginners to advanced, trivia and karaoke nights plus live music on the weekends, located in Old Town Monrovia free public parking in lots with less than a 5 minute walk.“
“It was a blast! We got invited to a birthday party here, the place is not too huge but also not small. I think there were 40-50 people, they first served appetizers in each table with drinks. The food was great served buffet style and when everyone were done there were still a lot of food on the table. The sound system was provided by the host's family, they just brought a small strobe light, mic and because the place is not too big a small a loud speaker made it through. The only issue I had was the restroom - there is only 1 shared male/female restroom , no problem sharing with men but you will always see a line, so be prepared to hold it until it's all clear, lol!. Parking is free across the street.“
“Super cool little spot! Not much people there when we went because there wasn't a game going on. However we still had fun. We played billiards and darts, and the owners were super friendly and helped us out with how to play. Everyone else there was friendly as well. When we are back in the area we'll be back again!“
“This Billiards center has become a frequent pass time for me and my friends to go play some pool and have fun. The staff and owner are very friendly and ready to help everyone in any way they can. The vibes inside are very nice and relaxed and they have a-lot of cool snacks and drinks to choose from if you wanna eat and shoot some pool. If you find yourself just wanting something fun to do in the Glendale/Los Angeles area I strongly recommend Green Room.“
“It was a clean bar, a bar where u can just chill and throw back a few. It felt like a very local bar bc of the atmosphere every body knew everybody and they where having a pool tournament it seemed like but I will definitely be back. I'm New to the area so to find a place like this comfortable it's rare.“
“I just loved this place the decor is so random but I think it's just fun the drinks were strong and delicious and the price was great. I didn't try the food but it looked upscale and beautiful not what you typically see at a dive bar. The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is because parking suuuucks. We went around and around. Other than that this place was dope.“
“Came here during a week night where they had a game on their big screen in the back patio. Loved how they have patio sectional furniture along with other furniture. Makes you feel right at home!My friend and I shared a huge burrito and got some drinks. The prices were reasonable. If you want water, it's self-serve where there are pitchers and cups on a table.There was a raffle going on as well, and we won a bobblehead. The guy running the raffle made everything so fun and interactive. And he has such an adorable and friendly sharpei pup. The servers did great checking up on us.Free parking in the back lot.Parking: Free parking in the back lot“
“Lots of draft beer if you like draft beer no hard alcohol necessarilyLittle Joe's next door and they used to bring it to you in the bar to eat there food is good it's getting ready to open again.Diomand pool tables are nice.Good music system.“
“Usually, when we’re traveling we’ll check out different places. This trip, we came to Kings Row twice!! Great grub (I had the fish and chips, and next trip had a burger), nice variety of local micro beers on tap. Order on your phone but the staff was great in following up with us … saw they had outdoor seating available … will go back next time in the area.“
“Finally, I had the opportunity to try islands out and tried the Hawaiian chicken sandwich and the mini burgers with fries. Both were really good, the food is good but a bit on the pricey side in my opinion but other than that I have no complaints.“
“Came here by chance because I forgot to make a reservation for Gyu-Kaku but I honestly loved the food here! The atmosphere was perfect the food was delicious and it came out very quickly. The waitress was also very nice. 5 stars! Would come again!“
“I came on a Saturday night for my birthday.. and I loved it! They had a Dj which didn’t miss at all!! The entire night just banger after banger! The taco man in the back came at midnight… and man was it worth the wait!! My guy has 3 for $5 tacos $8 quesadillas! You can’t go wrong( this was February 2024). They have beer pong, pool, and darts upstairs, and they said they even host tournaments for prizes every week! Drinks are cheap people are cool. Highly recommended this bar!“
“Love this place! Well curated stock of fresh beer featuring options often unavailable at the large retailers. You can mix and match single cans for takeout or consume onsite for a nominal corkage fee. As others have noted, there are also many beers on tap in the back, where you typically find an eclectic mix of customers watching sports inside or enjoying the sun on the patio. Fun place, excellent staff and dog friendly. Highly recommended!“
“This place gave me the feel of Del Rae in Pico Rivera. Love the atmosphere, service was excellent. No hovering over my table. Food was delicious. Fell in love with the cheesecake dessert! I will definitely return when I am back in the area. It has an old time feel that you have to experience.“
“Always great to come back and visit this place. Food was awesome and the staff was nice. Food came but the drinks never came out, and they never came back to ask if anything else was needed like to go box's or a quick greet making sure the food was how it's suppose to be. other then that everything was awesome.“

“Post 280 is an old school veterans post. It's got that 60/70s look and feel, just what some of us are looking for. Good beer, good service, good people. Some posts are not so welcoming and accommodating, not the case with this post. I was impressed with all their innovations and creativity with new events, fundraisers, and trying to reopen which are all challenging now. The bar manager Lisa truly makes this place the spot I want to hang out in. Thank you from Post 180. Your always welcome to stop by our post anytime.“
“We were in town for business and stopped in for a few beverages. Ms. Holly was incredible! Very personable and friendly and welcoming! Asked our names and actually remembered them! Highly recommend! We will be back this week for sure!!Heather and Mike Klein (Phoenix, AZ)“
“Love the food ,my favorite Mexican spot in Eagle Rock,the service is great whenever Mr Ricardo is there, lovely man,kind and hard working ethics! The only server ,tall ,fake blonde hair girl is always bitter hardly smiles and is usually unfriendly.I don't like her lack of respect for me as a native person,she usually looks at me with disdain and very patronizing manner, tonight she was the rudest when I asked for change,she made me wait till she put in her tips in the register!!!!The way she talks down to me is intolerable!!!! Hopefully management has a word with her,everybody counts in any business, especially someone like me ,I visit La fuente at least once a week...She seems to be super friendly with the Caucasian crowds!!!!“
“Very nice bar with a very Irish atmosphereThe outside of the restaurant is quite neutral, but the inside is really nice!A lot of space, a lot of activities (Ping-pong, darts and pool)A very diverse choice of liquor and alcohol wich is very nice !“
“Great food, I love their big wave burger. Employees are always super nice. Have been getting food from here for a long time and they never disappoint. And prices are pretty reasonable for quality of food. It's not gourmet restaurant but definitely a level or two above fast food without the additional cost“
“Dublin's is a perfect place to go on a first date! The atmosphere is so cozy, the lighting is on the dim side, and there's a wide variety of beer of tap. They were actually out of the beer I wanted, and the waitress recommended one that I ended up loving. Great service, atmosphere, and cozy tables/booths!“
“Absolutely will always love this spot, I've been coming here since 2001. The servers are great and the food is delicious. I always get the Diablo linguini, except this last time, I ended up getting the lasagna. It didn't disappoint, it comes with side veggies which is a plus plus, so you get a little greens without trying. My favorite is the Caesar salad. The place is not loud and you're able to have a conversation. I didn't take any pics, I was so hungry, I just started eating right away.“
“I LOVE, love this place. I started coming to look at the old signage and kept coming back because Kim (and most of the other bartenders) were so kind to me a few summers ago when I would come in for the AC, the wifi (RIP), and to pretend that I was the scientist version of Charles Bukowski :) It's so far from a normal bar because there are amazing patio chairs, an uninterrupted view of the mountains abutting Lake Ave, and a historical memory of the Altadena of yesterday. There is also a little lending library (but please don't take the good books home because I like looking at them). I've stopped in there every day at this point so I know which days I'm welcome and which ones still have old holdovers from a time when my kind wouldn't be welcomed in a place like this. I'm just glad that the owners Chis and his wife and the people they've hired don't behave like this. They want you to feel like this is your own little production of "Cheers" where everybody knows your name. As long as you are also respectful and pay your bill. Not sure how much longer I'll be coming here but I wanted to leave a glowing review at some point because I've made some lasting friendships here. Thanks! xx ash P.S. Don't go on Sunday or Wed afternoon (or on Monday if Kim isn't working - she's a protector) if you look and dress like a little skater punk or have loc'd hair, or if you're alone and female embodied, you're better off going next door to ACE (grab a nice seltzer or topo chico and chat with Jacob) or to Unincorporated Coffee Shop/Roasters at the corner of Lincoln & Altadena Drive, until the sun sets then you can head to the Rancho because the crown will change around 5:30/6pm in the Winter. Saturday's get busy but I rarely go on Friday or Sat because I'd rather hang with my actual friends. If you like pool or darts you can do that here. If you want to watch a big game, it's usually on. Most customers are respectful, but there are a lot who are not, so just keep your eyes and ears open if you're alone. Ladies (and some men), get some bear spray or an expandable self-defense baton if you're walking to your car alone after leaving the bar at night. I also have a carbon fibre cross-bow because you never know what people can get up to if they're gooonnne off the Titos. Anyway, I hope Chris lets me design a t-shirt or hoodie for the bar one day!“
