The quality of this place has gone wayyy down in the past few years, the protein is served cold. The veggie dishes sit there all day, it's way too expensive for what it is. Sad, we used to love this place

I used to love coming to lemonade, and then just before the pandemic the platting options changed, then they stopped displaying their food in a cafeteria style. Stopped in today and I'm just not sure we will be back. The cashier was very sweet and lovely; however, almost 100$ for a sandwhich, side mac n cheese, 2 lemonades, 2 side (qt amount), and avocado toast is not worth it. The food was good, but not good enough to justify the prices. I miss the cafeteria style and being able to see the food in person. It's a good spot to people watch, but overall it stopped being impressive.

Tuesday calls for Lemonade's Special Ahi Tuna Avocado Poke Bowl. I had a gap of time where I didn't have Lemonade but then when I realized they had a Tuesday special I was IN. FOOD Ahi Tuna Avocado Poke Bowl comes with ahi tuna poke, avocado, tangerine, pickled ginger, radish, seaweed salad, crispy onion, sesame oil, furikake white sushi rice. The special has a very tasty combo of ingredients and has beautiful presentation however the amount on the smaller serving side and is inconsistent. I've been going for weeks now, and it feels uncertain if the bowl I take out of the bag will have enough amount of food. PARKING There is a parking lot in the back or metered street parking. SERVICE The service is fine. Not much service is needed when I pick up my order on the way home from work. PRICE For $10 special, it's a good enough deal. It does come with avocados which is generally a premium charge elsewhere. AMBIANCE Feels open and there are seats inside and outside. Overall, the Poke Bowl special at $10 is decent deal but not filling. I also hope they will work on their serving size and consistency. Also, it would be nice to see if Lemonade will also offer other weekly specials.

It looks like a fast food restaurant, but the food is way better. There is a buffet-style line, but your selected food choices are served to you, thankfully on porcelain dishes, not on plastic or styrofoam. The only plastic items I saw were the water tumblers. There is a good amount of tables and chairs in the restaurant; so, no problem finding a seat. That may be different during the week when the lunch crowd comes in.
The food is fresh, healthy, and delicious! It's a bit on the pricy side, but it has a variety flavorful and unique dishes to choose from! The service is pretty standard, and the ambiance is neat, modern and bright! Like their name, they are best known for their handcrafted signature lemonade drinks!

Our family has always enjoyed visiting Lemonade on Lake. We stopped for lunch on Tuesday 1/16. I ordered the ahi tuna bowl and was not alarmed when I was served a piece of fish that was already prepared (for who knows how much in advance).I got home 45 minutes later with bloating and stomach pain. Two days of severe tummy trouble (do I need to be graphic?) and I decided to call the restaurant and advise them of my experience.Their answering service does not allow you to leave a message or to actually speak to a staff member.Very disappointing.Won’t be back.

The food at Lemonade feels healthy, but in a good, yummy way. Walk in, and they have on display an array of side dishes that you can pair with a protein of your choice (various preparations of fish, chicken and beef). I'm a vegetarian, and they let me order a "market bowl" with three sides and no meat. The three sides I ate today were roasted broccoli with ricotta, sweet potato with mandarin orange and pistachios, and honey roasted brussels sprouts. Each dish was tasty and left me feeling like I did something nice for my body instead of yet another fast food compromise. It was plenty filling, though I wish they'd also offer a vegetarian protein like grilled tofu. The cucumber mint lemonade I got was just ok. Its overall taste was kind of like syrupy sweet cucumber water. Service was great. The woman working today knew to direct me to the market bowl / three vegetarian sides option, since it (inexplicably) isn't displayed on their menu. She was friendly and patient in telling me what my options were. The ability to mix and match sides means that return visits won't get boring anytime soon. Nicely done, Lemonade!

I've been a big fan of this restaurant for 10 years. Conveniently located in beautiful Pasadena, this place is welcoming, offers a wide variety of super healthy food.Parking: Garage or street
I've passed by Lemonade frequently on my coffee trips to Philz and just recently tried their food. The ambiance in the restaurant is really nice, with the place usually not being crowded at all. There are plentiful indoor and outdoor seats, and the restaurant itself is super clean. I ordered the Braised Angus Beef Comfort Bowl, which had beef, mashed potatoes, string beans, tomatoes, and cauliflower/broccoli. The beef was very tender and the vegetables were also pretty good as well. I do think that the mashed potatoes and the vegetables were lacking a little on salt, but otherwise, I definitely would recommend the food! The service was fast, and they assemble the bowl in front of you with pre-made ingredients (similar to Chipotle style). Lemonade's ambience and location makes it a perfect location to grab a quick bite. The food is above average, but not spectacular; still I would definitely recommend and I will be back to try more of their menu (and perhaps some of their actual Lemonade).

Lavender Lemonade and Blood Orange Lemonade are to die for! Also a must try is the seared ahi tuna so good!

Kind of an assembly line ordering place where you build your own bowls kinda like chipotle. Food was pretty great and we got our food quickly. Unsurprisingly they have a giant selection of lemonade flavors. Place is pretty large with lots of seating both inside and out.

I left before ordering because they were soooo slow, no sense of urgency at all
