Union Restaurant Reviews
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...read full review

Union Restaurant in old town Pasadena is a top Italian spot known for great food and attentive service. It features fresh, seasonal ingredients and offers handmade pasta dishes that are rich and flavorful. Though the pastas can be heavy, the overall experience is enjoyable. The cozy atmosphere may be noisy, and it’s not very kid-friendly, but it is an intimate and romantic setting, making it a great date night option. They have delicious shared options like bread pudding dessert, which combines sweet and salty flavors topped with ice cream. The restaurant has both indoor and outdoor dining, with outdoor seating being popular, even though the tables are a bit close together and the indoor lighting is dim. The menu changes seasonally, offering classic dishes along with surprises, and the wine selection includes interesting sparkling and rosé options. Service is prompt and friendly, with knowledgeable staff who suggest great wine pairings. The restaurant is lively and charming overall, though wheelchair access might be a challenge.
