New American Restaurants in Pasadena, CA

“The Braised Beef and Mushrooms with Mashed Potatoes . Mashed potatoes were so creamy I could had eaten a whole bowl of it by itself but Beef and mushrooms Just took it to whole other level“

“Great food and service. Loved the the rooftop dining!“

“Salad was tasty . I’ll be back to try burgers they looked amazing .“

“amazing food, service and home feeling“

“They have a great happy hour! Service was great. It was a Friday evening and we were able to get two seats two minutes before happy hour ended. The bartender made sure our drinks and food were still at happy hour pricing. They were very busy, but we did not have to wait long at all to be served.“

“Excellent food, great service and environment. Feels homey with gourmet cuisine. Consistently great, we come here about once a month. Drinks are excellent too. Thank you.“

“Very good food, and great cocktails. Wait staff was friendly and accommodating. We enjoyed our experience.“

“One of the BEST burger stands in the LA area. Family-friendly, super interesting people from all over Los Angeles county, great DJ's playing classics of every genre. The classic burger with onions and cheese is amazing, but the mushroom and Swiss comes in at a close second. They even have vegetarian options for the non-meat eaters. It only opens up like once a month though, so you definitely have to follow them on social media and get there when the getting is good!!!“

“Cool atmosphere, great music, best bottomless mimosas, & Felix makes the best espresso martinis 🥰“

“Comfortable and easy to get to, The Mixx has great folks taking care of you - the best bartender in all of SoCal, Carlos, who will mix you any concoction (the drinks menu is quite extensive and Carlos does not disappoint). Owner Ed is always around to make sure you have a great time, too. Food is quite good (sweet potato fries is a personal favorite). And there is always some entertainment going on: comedy wednesdays (free!), tuesday salsa, live music on weekends. It’s a great place to hang and watch the game (we were there for Super Bowl) or just cill and enjoy music and the vibes.“

“Valentine’s Day dinner is typically one of the busiest and most chaotic nights for any restaurant but I was genuinely impressed by how hard the staff worked to accommodate everyone. I’ll definitely be returning on a less hectic night to fully enjoy the experience.“

“Always an amazing time here. Been coming to this location for years now. Service is second to none and food is delicious.“

“The best French food in LA. Chef is outstanding. Staff incredible. So yourself a favor. Go.“

“The food is amazing. I highly recommend this bistro.“

“Excelente comida y atención“

“took a date there on a weeknight they let me get to my table early to put flowers on the table for m date. the food was great and the drinks were perfect would recommend this place“

“Very few non-vegan restaurants have vegan mayo and cheese, so I was thrilled to be able to order a sandwich. Far from fancy, but a nice place for a sandwich and chit chat with friends, either sitting inside or outside. Parking lot is free for first 90 minutes. My family loved the fresh-baked non-vegan cookies for dessert and even bought extra to take home!“

“Great service and everyone treats you like family!! Hands down one of my favorite restaurants and thank you Paulina.❤️🥰“

“How did this quirky gem evade my notice for five years?! I guess because they're only open Friday and Saturday. This may be the best restaurant in Pasadena. Inventive creole-inspired food. Everyone raved. Only thing I would change is to have it a little quieter. But our four-top could still converse well.“

“The restaurant is elegantly decorated and has a comfortable atmosphere“

“What a hidden gem! This small quaint restaurant delivered some of the best food we had while visiting Pasadena. The flavors in the sauce (basil, olive oil and something else yummy) that surrounded the burrata were absolutely delicious! The lamb/beef/pork bolognese sauce on the spaghetti as well as the duck was excellent. Portions are definitely generous and shareable. Our only regret is we didn’t save room for dessert! Despite being there during the Rose Bowl with lots of people, the service was excellent! So glad we stumbled upon this restaurant via Resy, we’ve saved it in case we come to Pasadena again!! Bravo!!!“

“*YUM* is all I have to say!! We adore this place, and friends who have moved away always beg to go here for chicken when they come home to visit. The chicken falls off the bone, their fried tofu is to die for! ������. You cannot go wrong here! But pay attention to their hours. They close mid-day for a few hours.“

“Terrific staff and innovative cuisine. Small local restaurant who worked hard to keep staff through the pandemic closures with delicious creative take out and who are keeping everyone safe by requiring proof of vaccination for indoor dining. Fresh creative food.“

“Dog, burgers, drinks and a Tuesday run club, what more do you need!“

“Main Chick Hot Chicken in Pasadena is 🔥 🔥 🔥 meaning 😋 Always fresh and thier chicken taste tasty & crisp! Only drawback is that this particular Nain Chick don't have the seating so either you order togo, uses ubereats or the Doordash! Whichever, their food was amazing & you will be happy!“

“This was our first time ordering from Organico. It was EXCELLENT!!! Very easy to order, super fast prep & everything was absolutely DELICIOUS ?!!!
Large portion sizes, too.

We will certainly order again soon!
Thank you!! ?“

“This is my second time at Pez Coastal Kitchen and it was absolutely delicious! The quality of ingredients is incredibly fresh and each dish I've ordered has left me pleasantly surprised by the unique combination of flavors. All of the staff is very knowledgeable about the menu and drinks and gave great recommendations. Brett is a phenomenal chef and owner! Will be returning, I'm happy I live so close to this place!“

“We’ve always been big Dog Haus fans. This location was always a bummer though with one infamous staff member who consistently had zero customer service skills. I left some poor feedback after a particularly awful experience earlier this year. Months later, I got a message that that individual was no longer with DH, taking accountability for the situation, and offering us a free meal for our trouble. And they came through on the promise! Really impressive customer service and appreciated by our family. The Hill location is officially back in the rotation!“

“This was my first time having Ben's and my first time visiting a ghost kitchen. There's limited street parking in front of the kitchen, and there's parking on the side at the former Rite Aid lot. When your food is ready for pickup, pull up your email confirmation to scan at one of the kiosks/screens inside the ghost kitchen. A woman brought my food up once I scanned my email confirmation.

As for the food, it all tasted good and fresh. It's a healthy and reasonably priced fast food option. I had the chicken hearty bowl with a side of chickpeas and potatoes. All of it was so good.

The only reason I removed a star was the tiny portion of chicken I received with my bowl. Other than that, I'd definitely try this place out again.“

“Joey is super friendly and helpful!“

“This place knows how to do wings. I have a hard time finding wings like these. They aren't fatty (I don't like at all). They are perfectly cooked the way I love them and the flavor is superb. We got the mild buffalo wings. We will be back a lot. We are very interested in trying their other menu items.“

“Great place! Good food and music!“

“Best breakfast burritos ANYWHERE! great service! Accommodating! Great new bowls! Fantastic, high quality coffee and tea! Clean! Safe! Can order there, online, or through phone! Can eat inside, outside, pick up, or get curbside pick up service! They follow ALL CDC guidelines! I've been going there since they first opened. 👍👍👍👍👍😊“

“Great food without breaking the bank .!“

“Very quiet and accomodating spot located inside the Westin Hotel. Wonderful for a few nibbles, drinks or a quiet lunch. Would be great for a business meeting or to catch up with a friend as its generally fairly quiet. Thank you for the wonderful service, nibbles, drinks, and peaceful time.“

“Great food, relaxing environment“

“We enjoyed the seating, peaceful like been on vacation , the menu has offerings for every appetite, our service Amy was very attentive, checking with us several times making sure we had everything we needed. We keep coming back to The Terrace at The Langham for the ambience, the good food and excellent service“

“I'm a regular here at Der Wolf. The bartender, Ricky, made me a very nice tropical drink that definitely hit the spot. And let's not forget Taco Tuesday - the tacos are amazing, very delicious. I highly recommend. The dungeon is also nice; it's a little bit more intimate.“

“4 of us ate at the new Craft at LA Live but I can't find it here so recommending them on the Pasadena location. This was the second night they had been open last Saturday. Service was outstanding. Judy did a terrific job taking care of us and the head chef and owner cam by to welcome us. Food was outstanding too. Great place.“
