Chris WellerAugust 6, 2014Mondays and Tuesdays mean Neighborhood Night! Buy one entree, get one for $5! Splitting the bill with 2 people makes the steak worthwhile. Get the ribeye, it's definitely better than the rotisserie.
Angelise SlifkinApril 7, 2016Great, consistently delicious. The waitstaff is friendly and accommodating. Have had almost everything on the menu, and all is between above average and great. Would order taco plates until I die
Trina UnzickerDecember 11, 2013What everyone says about the Short Rib meat is true. Beautifully marinated, charred just right and available in either taco or hash form (which sounds a bit weird, but gets my vote for best dish).- The short rib tacos are absolutely delicious. The meat is seasoned well, the guacamole is very good, and the kale salad is fantastic!
JessicaMarch 24, 2017Dude, how come no one talks about the "comal griddled, made-to-order corn tortillas"? That's the reason why the tacos are so good. 🌮
Hank LambertApril 29, 2016Tacos (daughter says they're the best she's ever had), burgers (worth the extravagant price), and rotisserie chicken (blackened seasoning makes it special)
Marek MineckiNovember 10, 2014Nice, very lively, SoCal kind of place... had the prime rib and short rib tacos... very, very delish...
Melinda McCradyOctober 17, 2013CONSUMER ALERT! Misleading or unclear, you decide: check in & you'll "unlock" deal, but check dates because mgmt will argue when it counts. M–T on leap year harvest moon days, Saturn 7th house etc…
Rachel KSeptember 21, 2014Mostly savory brunch, but the lemon ricotta hotcakes with endless mimosas ($12) is really nice.
Current Fave Item: Crispy Chicken Spinach Salad! Delicious! Pleasant environment, readily available. Full service available in the bar, but in the summer the patio is where it's at!
Monday and Tuesday is neighborhood night. Buy one pizza and get the second one for $5 dollars. Save even more by bring your own wine and the $5 corkage fee.
Greg RNovember 10, 2014The hamburger was terrific. The kale salad wonderful. And the special pumpkin pie was also great.
Irina ZhivotkoMarch 21, 2018Amazing place with lovely personnel, great pizza and good choice of wines
Angela GlassOctober 26, 2011Huge, and I mean, HUGE fresh English muffins! Yum! Cookies looked divine too! They also serve refresco hecho en Mexico Coca Cola.
Please have the bone in ribeye! If red meat is not your th ibv have the salmon dish, it's delish!- Love the short rib tacos and the deviled eggs! Try the white sangria also.
- Kevin WDecember 25, 2014Short rib tacos was magnificent and the rotisserie chicken was also delicious
Can't go wrong with the sangria! Cheeseburger is very good too
Good and friendly service, try the deviled eggs with bacon bits, nom.
Entree special (Full price + 2nd one for $5) on Mon/Tue is a great deal.
Don't forget to grab some sea salt chocolate chip cookies before you leave.
one of the few dining establishments in pasadena that's open late. great mac and cheese and a good, fairly priced wine list.
Scott ZenzMarch 15, 2013Don't forget to fill your Stone growler at the company store adjacent to Le Grande Orange!
Connie ChiuFebruary 14, 2015Typical brunch spot but the outdoor seating is so good on a warm sunny day.
Maddie HerlacheDecember 15, 2012Great food - make sure to "steal" a free cookie on the way out, they're delicious!
Adam AshleyJanuary 11, 2018Great atmosphere. The food is mediocre. Probably won’t be back nor would I recommend it to anyone.
Wes YeeJune 14, 2011Fantastic service. The best Arnold Palmer I've ever had and delicious English muffins.
M MFebruary 25, 2013It feels kind if "chainy" but food is good. Sit on the patio or in the bar, otherwise it's a little too old Pasadena.
One of the best places in Pasadena! Neighborhood night is a must along with their pitcher of Sangria.
