The Canoe House has great food, a creative menu, and a fun, tropical-themed atmosphere. We enjoy having lunch or dinner here with friends and family. They also have a good-sized meeting room if you have a group.

Unfortunately there was no manager available to troubleshoot issues with customers on a Saturday. Was only one server, who had time to only take quick orders, then sling the food onto the tables. Negative attitude.

This restaurant is not really dog friendly and I had a service animal. They didn't know the 2 questions to ask. This means the staff is untrained.

First time at Canoe House through DineLA. We got the fish and chips and the loco moco as well as the brussel chips appetizer and tuna over rice. There was also cobbler and an upside down pineapple cake for desser. It was all very good and hearty. The service was prompt and the food was delicious.

Very cool themed restaurant and friendly staff. Sports are on all the TV perfect for game day eat and watch!
The food is really tasty. I have a son that gates all veggies and actually ate the brussel sprouts. My older son loves the wings. I enjoyed my salad. We went back for breakfast and evening was just lovely.
Our waiter was very nice and helpful food was great.

I highkey lol liked the Atmosphere of this retro lookin place. It has a Hawaiian themed Diner, Tiki Torch Island type resto, Lu-ao fiesta feels to it. The wait staff all wore Hawaiian shirts. So you would THINK that the service would be welcoming and hospitable being that they perpetuate Hawaiian culture. But thats not the Spirit I felt and received. Collectively I feel as tho the servers were not very Friendly. From my observation it seemed as tho they all LIKE to huddle together in a circle chit chatting, laughing and socializing with each other more than tending to the customers. In fact there were these two ladies (customers) in front of us that I suppose got really irrate from the long wait of their own waitress that it prompted her to approach the waitress upfront to tell her that they were "ready to order". It was so awkward. Tho me and the husband were a little more assertive so Jonathan (our waiter) was able to get the order and have the Food ready in a timely manner. HOWEVER: I did NOT really like my Omellette as I specifically instructed them to make it well done. But it was all RUNNY and wet. I Did not care for that at all Furthermore, It was the hashbrowns instead that they made well done! A request I did NOT make, nor asked for. My hashbrowns were crusty, Burnt and hard to eat. In any case I did not enjoy this meal but determined to make the best out of it. And truth be told had Jonathan been a lil bit more ATTENTIVE and Nicer this mistake proly wouldve been forgiven. Because altho He seems like a sweet guy he was more interested in kee-hee-ing and hobnobing lol lowkey flirting with the "cute manager" than he was interested in waiting on clients. Because as soon as he gave the food he totally disappeared. In fact we kept grabbing his attention for several things that was needed. Whether forgetting my toast, or water needed refilling, or getting the check, or whatever else that was needed. It was like hailing a cab w Him lol and mind you Im not hater. I like it when Employees are happy and get along with each other. But I believe the Customers should come FIRST and foremost. Ultimately: we did NOT enjoy our time in your Restaurant as I initially thought I would. And trust me Im already very outgoing and friendly to the STAFF as best as I can to create a rapport. But like I said Jonathan was more interested in creating a connection with his Manager on duty lol than his customers. Understandably so. I mean the manager was cute. But common now Jonathan, Do better Dear. Thank You anyway...

Truly a one of a kind place at least in the Pasadena area, you will find me here usually on Mondays, it’s Mai Tai Mondays and the bartender her name is Steph, she makes a great drink. Taco Tuesday is also popular. Wear your Hawaiian shirt and you’ll fit right on
