Union Restaurant 37 Union St, Pasadena Italian • $$$

“Had to stop by my favorite Italian grubbin in the heart of Old Town Pasadena all the way from Boise. This was my 3rd time and each time just keeps getting better; definitely the bigger the party, the better. We paid $225 for 4 pasta entrees, 3 appetizers, & 2 glasses of wine for a party of 6. I’ve learned to like my pastas al dente after having them here. The meatballs are banging, the wine-pairing was delightful. Our service was attentive and pleasant; the vibe is always vibrant and homey. Highly recommended.”

Oji Sushi & Sake Bar 624 E Colorado Blvd, Pasadena Sushi • $$

“One of my fav sushi spots in Pasadena & I’d say we only have about 3 or 4 of them. I’ve been in 3 times so far and I’ve always had the same server, she’s really friendly and attentive. The Chirashi lunch special (in photo) is spectacular! The fish is so fresh and when you open up the bottom compartment, there are pickles and some other fish bits bits (?) inside. It really is so good and if you love fish, you CANNOT go wrong w this order. It’s also a very generous portion. This is probably something I’ll stick to because when I tried their rolls I wasn’t nearly as impressed. Their rolls were good but nothing memorable. I’ll continue to go back and order sashimi and the chirashi bowl though.”

Top Restaurant 1842 E Colorado Blvd, Pasadena Indonesian • $

“When you want the best Crispy Chicken you've ever eaten, Top Restaurant is your answer. They have an extensive Asian menu with authentic home recipes. All items are made fresh, as you order. To work here, you must be a family member. They guard their recipes and preparation techniques carefully. They take personal pride in every meal that they create.\n\nThese are a few of the meals that I like to order… mixed BBQ chicken katsu, teriyaki chicken, spam rice, fried rice, spring rolls, gyoza pork, beef and chicken. The hamburger and the cheeseburger are exceptional here.  The menu is so varied that I think I could eat here everyday for 6 months without repeating a dish! \n\nLocated just east of Allen Avenue, in a small shopping area. The parking lot is always available. I am usually able to park right in front of the restaurant. I like to call ahead and order. They are extremely busy some days and times. \n\nI enjoy supporting this great family enterprise!”

I always wondered how real Japanese sushi would taste and I have a feeling this place is certainly close to that. I had recently watched a documentary on Netflix and how this one place in Japan you just trust the chef to serve you delicious 😋 sushi! Well this is place does the same and boy it doesn't disappoint. I've never had salmon melt in my mouth like that or had sushi rice taste sooo good. And the ginger ! Thats real stuff

Entre Nous French Bistro 119 W Green St, Pasadena Wine Bar • $$$$

“This was my second visit to Entre Nous French Bistro, and it absolutely confirmed what I felt the first time—this place is a hidden gem. We came yesterday to celebrate my sister’s birthday, and everything about the evening was simply perfect.

We were a party of five and shared a variety of dishes that showcased the kitchen’s finesse and authenticity. We started with the Daily Pick Oysters, which were impeccably fresh and beautifully presented. The Tartare de Saumon was bright and delicate, and the Escargots de Bourgogne were everything you’d hope for—garlicky, buttery, and so satisfying. The Homemade Duck Pâté was another standout—rich, rustic, and perfectly paired with fresh baguette slices.

For entrées, we had the Filet Mignon, Rack of Lamb, Magret de Canard, French Fries, and the Salmon special of the day. Every single dish was a hit. The meats were expertly cooked to temperature, the sauces were layered and flavorful, and the sides were just as impressive. Even the fries deserve a shoutout—crispy, golden, and addictive.

The service was warm, professional, and incredibly thoughtful. They made sure my sister felt celebrated, and we never once felt rushed. The ambiance is cozy and intimate, with just the right touch of French charm.

Entre Nous continues to impress, and it’s quickly becoming one of my favorite restaurants in town. Whether it’s a special occasion or just a night out, this bistro delivers every time. Already looking forward to visit number three!”

“Updating review based on my latest visit to this magical place. If I ever do something stupid in the wrong state and end up on death row, my last meal will be the spaghetti from Holy Saints.

SPAGHETTI IS BETTER THAN THE SPAGHETTI AT UNION. Reminds me of an NYC restaurant - really nice, low key and GREAT food. Very comfortable. The server was a total dork - super nice, unpretentious and funny, asked me if I trust her twenty seconds after we met (I bet she plays Tetris). The music had no F’s left to give in the best way possible - definitely heard some Jefferson Starship in there and one of those songs that could be Chicago or REO Speedwagon. Will come back 1000 times - so glad this place exists.”

“The food was delicious, the service excellent, the establishment was clean, portions generous, and cost affordable. We ordered chow mein, fish with black bean sauce, and Mongolian beef. It's not Chinese fast food, it's a sit down restaurant. Surprised it wasn't crowded as the food is delicious. The location is a little non-descript but street parking was easy. I live in Gardena and although there are several Chinese restaurants, none are good. This was a lucky find as restaurant reviews in general tend to result in a bad choice.”

The service was amazing — very attentive and friendly. The food was great and perfect for sharing. A bit on the salty side for my taste, but my son absolutely loved it. Some of my photos may show the dishes after we had already started eating! We sat outside and enjoyed the beautiful weather — the patio area was lovely. Overall, a very nice restaurant and a great dining experience. I would definitely recommend this place if you’re looking for some good Asian cuisine.”

Clifton's Gourmet BBQ 33 N Catalina Ave, Pasadena Barbecue • $

“Y'all... I can finally eat the greens!!! They make them with turkey instead of pork and I gobbled them things up. Almost went for more!
I got the chicken plate with 2 sides, mac and cheese and the greens. Comes with a slice of whole wheat bread. Chicken was a bit dry but the sauce helped it... until I ran out of the bbq sauce.
I got the hot and regular bbq sauces. The hot had a nice kick, very tangy. Both were sweet and thick. The cups weren't filled up all the way, which would probably be helpful. They were about half full and I had used both cups to dip the chicken, so halfway through eating the chicken, I was out of sauce. This is where the greens came in handy, to dip the chicken in the juices or eat the chicken with the greens to add some moisture.
Mac and cheese was good. Nice creamy cheesr sauce and soft noodles.
I will definitely go back, just know to order a few extra sides of bbq sauce!”

“We were back at the Langham for my hubbys bday. He is a big red meat eater and I wanted to do something nice. For starters we had the oysters, and beet salad. I would have likes more generous oysters, 3 of the 6 looked flat. Im not sure if that was due to the type but in any case I would skip them next time. The beet salad was great. I traditonally like beet salad that has variety of beet types. This was just red beets and it was good nonetheless. For the main course I got the sea bass and it was the best sea bass Ive ever had from the first bite. Wowsa!! Hinby had the Tasmanian Waygu New York Strip. It was divine and such a generous portion. For sides we had the mushrooms, mac and cheese, and brussel sprouts and all were good and came in sharing size portions. Even though the food had a rich taste we were not weighed down after dinner. They gave my husband a complimentary slice of pecan dessert for his bday, which was nice. We did not order additional desserts because we had after dinner plans which already included dessert. It is had to critique anything I would say do a bread basket with a variety of breads the sourdough is good but that shell was too hard. And there is a mocktail with blackberry that is served inside the hotel bar that was not on the menu in the restaurant, our mocktails were good but if you go to the bar get the blackberry mocktail.

Entre Nous French Bistro 119 W Green St, Pasadena Wine Bar • $$$$

“This was my second visit to Entre Nous French Bistro, and it absolutely confirmed what I felt the first time—this place is a hidden gem. We came yesterday to celebrate my sister’s birthday, and everything about the evening was simply perfect.

We were a party of five and shared a variety of dishes that showcased the kitchen’s finesse and authenticity. We started with the Daily Pick Oysters, which were impeccably fresh and beautifully presented. The Tartare de Saumon was bright and delicate, and the Escargots de Bourgogne were everything you’d hope for—garlicky, buttery, and so satisfying. The Homemade Duck Pâté was another standout—rich, rustic, and perfectly paired with fresh baguette slices.

For entrées, we had the Filet Mignon, Rack of Lamb, Magret de Canard, French Fries, and the Salmon special of the day. Every single dish was a hit. The meats were expertly cooked to temperature, the sauces were layered and flavorful, and the sides were just as impressive. Even the fries deserve a shoutout—crispy, golden, and addictive.

The service was warm, professional, and incredibly thoughtful. They made sure my sister felt celebrated, and we never once felt rushed. The ambiance is cozy and intimate, with just the right touch of French charm.

Entre Nous continues to impress, and it’s quickly becoming one of my favorite restaurants in town. Whether it’s a special occasion or just a night out, this bistro delivers every time. Already looking forward to visit number three!”

The server was a total dork - super nice, unpretentious and funny, asked me if I trust her twenty seconds after we met (I bet she plays Tetris). The music had no F’s left to give in the best way possible - definitely heard some Jefferson Starship in there and one of those songs that could be Chicago or REO Speedwagon.

We Olive & Wine Bar 32 E Colorado Blvd, Pasadena Wine Bar • $$

“Update, two weeks later: So after a slightly rocky start, we went again - the food and wine were excellent as before, but the service really really improved since the last time. I can highly recommend this place to go for a good time. If you are with friends, make sure you try "family style" - order loads of munchies - the four of us shared the charcuterie board (the salami was among the best I ever had), the flatbreads, the baked brie - and a sample plate of their delicious oils - so so so good - and given the superb quality, reasonably priced. Not to forget: did you ever try vanilla ice cream with olive oil - you should ;-) So thankful they understood and appreciated my earlier review. I will surely go again soon. Previous review: Oh, what a wonderful place - and an amazing concept. My wife and I took two friends yesterday. We were seated at a table for two, with the promise to be relocated to the table next to us as patrons were close to getting their check. Never happened, no problem.I wanted to order a bottle of wine. The service recommended tasting their canned wines - 4 different ones for $49. Canned wine? I come from Germany, from Koblenz, where the rivers Rhine and Mosel meet. Canned wine? Seriously? Still, why not try something new?So the four of us received four balloon glasses with the four wines. Wine tasting? Share every glass physically with four people in times of Corona? They must be kidding. I would have expected to get four cans - and, in all honesty, four small glasses for each of us. Sure: it ain't the Ritz - a personal glass for each of us. But sure: this ain't "The Ritz," so we shared. We are really good friends, and we did have a good time. The wine was OK - which sounds as if something was wrong - it wasn't. It was OK - nice experience, but I would personally not order again - while it may be perfectly fine for you, the reader (by the way, I appreciate you reading this ;-)Then: the food. As with the wine, we wanted to share. We started with the baked brie, which was really really good, and the burrata flatbread, which came soaked, and I really mean soaked, in Oil. Sadly, it did not come with silverware. We asked three times but never got it. Then, we asked if we could have at least some napkins. We got two. We were here to share, weren't we ;-)I asked for the check. The printer had issues. Happens. We were not in a rush. Service offered a sip of wine while we had to wait. Sure, a nice gesture. Sadly, the wine never came. After just under half an hour, we got some sort of check - still issues with the printer. We were charged $61 for the wines - they were charged separately and not, as per the menu and recommendation, as the $49 offer. $12 was refunded. Receipt: sorry, the printer.I really wanted to love the place, and as we enjoyed the company of our dear friends in a nice atmosphere, loved the brie, and drank the wine, I did not want to spoil the evening by arguing about the service, which really "has potential."It would have been easy to make this a five-star recommendation, as the location, atmosphere and general concept scream fabulous. I would possibly go again. At the moment, I feel sorry for the place.”

“Loved our dinner at Dan Modern Chinese in Pasadena! The food was amazing, everything from the dumplings to the noodles was full of flavor and perfectly cooked. Our server Eric was awesome, super kind, and made great recommendations. Anthony and the rest of the team were really helpful and made the whole experience even better. Great vibe, great service, and delicious food. We can’t wait to come back!”

“Service was not great, I understand it's the holiday season lots of party's etc. But when your waiter doesn't bring your medallion so meat could be served, and you have to ask for them to serve you. The manager later then tells you we have lots of reservations today so leave soon??!! And our table was basically cleaned and bare before we could enjoy the dessert we brought for our daughter's bday. Our son was in the restroom and we were told we need to leave, we had a 530 reservation and it was only 645. We were barley there for an hour and being told to leave. This isn't the 1st time we've had this bad of service at this Fogo.”

“The Langham has a truly special location in the heart of the most beautiful portion of Pasadena so you cannot go wrong with having tea overlooking the grounds. The service was as anticipated and exceptional. One note is that they sat our party next to the harpist who was playing quite lovely Christmas music which would have been nice however it was so incredibly loud in my ear the entire time we had our tea, to the point our party had a very difficult time conversing. I think if they took out the center table next to the harpist it would bode well in the future. BEsides this one complaint I felt everything qwuite exceptional and as anticipated.”

“Fernando has been our server for many yrs. He almost family. He serves you like you were visiting him at home. The sweetest man. He remembers everything, like I'll have my coffee when the meal comes. He and I speak the same language as far as when he comes with the coffee he wants me to put the cream and sugar first before he pours. We laugh over that because we both agree if you put the cream in last it cools the coffee down. I know how difficult it can be serving people because I was a Flight Attendant for 50 yrs. And my Husband & I treat servers with the most respect. We can't say enough about Fernando. Most attentive. We just love him. It's funny when we go in we ask where Fernando is and the hostess will say he's inside today and we wish to sit out in the patio. I'll ask her to just tell him we are here and he will always come outside to serve us. He has met my Son & Daughter in Law & my best friends. We took them for Brunch while she was pregnant, now we take our Granddaughter to Teddy Bear Tea. She's a Langham Girl since before she was born. Our only wish is that they would bring back the Brunch pre Covid. The best brunch in the city. Now it's nothing like is was. It was unbelievable. Diane & Lon Handelsman”

Cinnabon Swirl 1661 E Colorado Blvd, Pasadena Bakery • $

“Cinnabon Swirl – Pasadena is located right across from Pasadena City college at the corner of Bonnie Avenue and Colorado Boulevard. It is a great destination for both students and neighborhood clients. It has a positive energy that you feel immediately upon entering. I felt like I was going to a party. \n\nEveryone in the store says hello and gives you the opportunity to look at the selections available on their menu. The staff member I spoke with explained the options and was eager to offer free samples. I decided for this visit on the classic full size Cinnabon. It was carefully boxed and placed in a bag. I tasted the soft serve ice cream and decided it would be my next purchase on a future visit. \n\nI walked around to look at the different displays and refrigerated items available for purchase. The store is bright and cheerful. \n\nAfter a short walk home I enjoyed my Cinnabon for my evening dessert. I think this would be a great breakfast with a good cup of coffee. Great cinnamon flavor as you work your way to the middle cinnamon pastry. Fresh and tasty! \n\nCaravel Ice Cream has always been a favorite, so I look forward to my next visit to give it a try. \n\nThere is parking on the side of the building or in the back. \n\nThis is a great neighborhood for walking with a lot of boutique restaurants and stores. A great place to window shop and get some exercise. \n\nI look forward to enjoying my next visit as much as I did my first!”
