33 Best American Restaurants in Pasadena

“Great dinner, and the wait staff is great especially a waitress named Harper who should be the manager, super Intelligent as well as a total pro at what she is doing for a living. Great personally and a problem solver and super hard working and totally unwilling to compromise the quality of service that Black Bear Dinner is known for. Ronald R Mosher“

“food is great“

“Food this evening was great! Thais was awesome!👍 She was super nice and provided great service! We will be requesting her service again! Thank you!!🙂“

“We used the Silver Sycamore to host our daughter’s baby shower. From the start we knew it was the right choice. Krista answered all our questions and went above and beyond making the decor pop for us. The catering staff is also so polite and welcoming. Highly recommended!“

“I highly recommend this Café. I ordered to go as I’m leaving state after breakfast, but the girl that helped me carry my drinks out was super sweet. Not being from Texas I was curious about everything on the land and she was very informative (I should’ve gotten her name). I ordered the Sycamore 2s which was 2 pancakes (choice of 1/2 waffle or 2 slices French toast), 2 eggs, and 2 pieces of bacon (choice of sausage also). I got my son an order of French toast, and a friend the brunch burger. Everything was AMAZING. The server mentioned Mondays they have a mimosa special (she told me exactly but I forget it). I like over medium eggs and this is the first place I’ve been that’s gotten my eggs PERFECT the first time around. It’s an adorable little café and there’s a wedding venue in the back. I highly recommend trying their food if you haven’t before. I took photos but it won’t let me add them to my review.“

“Simply the best!!! Best service!“

“We walked into Sudie’s after a funeral, completely unannounced with a large party of 40 people. The management team went above and beyond to accommodate us. Coya, our only waitress, didn’t bat an eye. She was amazing and worked extremely hard to take care of all of us. Thank you, your kindness made all the difference in the world at that moment.“

“Great breakfast and friendly staff“

“Yo, Cheddar’s Scratch Kitchen in Pasadena is absolutely fire! Our family of five (two adults, three kids) rolled up from East Fwy, and this spot was straight up incredible. The grilled salmon was pure perfection, flaky, seasoned just right, and only about $14, a total win for that gourmet vibe. The Chicken Alfredo? Creamy, saucy, pasta goals for around $13, with portions so big we had leftovers for days. The kids went wild for the Penne Pasta Marinara (about $5.99 each), scarfing down that tangy sauce like champs. And don’t get me started on the honey butter croissants, free with entrees, flaky, sweet, and so good we were ready to grab the whole basket to go. For five of us, the bill was around $60 with tax and tip, which is unreal for scratch made eats.

The service was top tier, our server was awesome, keeping drinks topped off, dropping jokes that had us all cackling, and handling our kids’ sauce mess like a pro. The whole crew was on point, making a busy Monday night feel chill and welcoming. This place is a family friendly gem, cozy and perfect for a squad meal. We’re already hyped to come back for more salmon, pasta, and those unreal croissants. If you’re in Houston, hit up Cheddar’s, it delivers all the vibes for a great meal that won’t break the bank. Bet we’ll be back!“

“I have been coming to this restaurant for years. I love the staff. They always accommodate us quickly. And during lunch time they know I’m short on time and serve me quickly. I call it in and have it ready for me to eat at table.“

“🥰We eat here once or twice weekly. The owner is extremely nice, and the food is very good. The prices are reasonable, and the portions are great. I usually have leftovers.“

“the burgers are big and juicy...you can get them cooked the way you like (pink)!“

“Awesome dining. Great staff.“

“Great bar area and music!“

“Me and my wife absolutely love this place. Best Gyros locally, the owner and girl who takes orders are so nice.“

“The food was pretty good, nothing to write home about. The fries weren't super fresh. I had the quasidillas with both options (bacon/chicken and brisket/cheese), and they were the bomb. I recommend the bacon/chicken one if you want to pick one. The service was okay, he worked hard and it was pretty busy. Got sweet tea instead of unsweet and he took the time to fix it quickly. Surprised me with a refill without my asking. The atmosphere was average, but we enjoyed ourselves and that's what matters.“

“Every time I go to Razzoo's, I leave satisfied 😌 Best part is the service I receive from Faith. She's knowledgeable about the food and, of course, the drinks. 10 out of 10“

“Ordene baleadas por recomendacion de mis hermanos y si muy deliciosas, regresare por la carne asada que tambien me recomendaron..el personal muy amable #catrachos“

“Great service the wings were delicious!“

“Good renovated . no baby changing table“

“Great people and service to match.“

“Good atmosphere, view, and food.“

“🥰We eat here once or twice weekly. The owner is extremely nice, and the food is very good. The prices are reasonable, and the portions are great. I usually have leftovers.“

“Food is good… But! Staff is slow at seating people. Not cleaning the tables on time and the restaurant is messy. No motivation among the staff, like they’re Hating on life! I get it, Sucks that you’re working there but don’t blame the customers for your Life decisions.“

“If i gave all 5 stars, why are you asking me to redo my review google? Because here i am...updating it with 1 less star on each.
Chicken fried steak was very bland today.
Mac and cheese has been watery with no flavor for last 2 visits.
Corn was even blah! How do you blah up corn?
The little lady that got us our drinks was very sweet and hard working that's why I'm just knocking off 1 star for service. But the waitress...as long as yours not asking her for assistance with something, she might be ok. But I feel like she would spit in my food for wanting to exchange something out. She's really not the warm and friendly type of waitress...I guess a job is a job. I get it...but dang Gina!“

“Came here on a Monday night with my family and Ms.Casandra was so amazing definitely coming again because of her. She was very nice to my son and she came to check on us every chance she got! She met us to our standards , I love that. Thanks to Ms.Casandra for making my child day.“

“we ate there today and the food was delicious and the service was great, our server Billy was excellent.“

“Racquel P served myself and a friend on 12-31-24. She gave us excellent service and deserves a big raise. Wonderful lady!!!“

“I take my daughter to IHOP every year for her Birthday breakfast. We had a wonderful waitress. The food was good & HOT. It came out in a timely fashion considering it's breakfast time & we had a group of 4. 20 minutes wasn't to bad. IMO, if you get a good waitress, you get a good experience.“

“I actually visited the establishment to purchase a large quantity of food for my crew members. I had the pleasure of speaking with a young lady by the name of Victoria. He was very helpful with helping place the order since it was a rather large one. She gave some great suggesting on what she thought the guys might like to eat and their best sellers. I must say she had the right idea on what to order because the crew of 15 guys loved all the food that was ordered and didn’t leave any behind. Definitely will be order from this place again and hopefully have the pleasure of dealing with victoria when I do. Also wanted to mention that the manager on duty a young lady by the name of Catrina came out and thanked me for my business and even helped me carry out the bags to my car since there was so many.“

“Love Golden Corral, but the prices are a little high.“
