Mondays 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.

What 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).

Great, 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

The short rib tacos are absolutely delicious. The meat is seasoned well, the guacamole is very good, and the kale salad is fantastic!

Dude, how come no one talks about the "comal griddled, made-to-order corn tortillas"? That's the reason why the tacos are so good. 🌮

In Phoenix, the original La Grande Orange, a bistro-ish place with a knack for deviled eggs, is often described as a California-style restaurant. Read more

Tacos (daughter says they're the best she's ever had), burgers (worth the extravagant price), and rotisserie chicken (blackened seasoning makes it special)

Nice, very lively, SoCal kind of place... had the prime rib and short rib tacos... very, very delish...

CONSUMER 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…

Mostly 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.

The hamburger was terrific. The kale salad wonderful. And the special pumpkin pie was also great.

Typical brunch spot but the outdoor seating is so good on a warm sunny day.

Get there at 5p on weekdays for happy hour, gets crowded soon after.

One of the best places in Pasadena! Neighborhood night is a must along with their pitcher of Sangria.
M MFebruary 25, 2013
It feels kind if "chainy" but food is good. Sit on the patio or in the bar, otherwise it's a little too old Pasadena.
Kristine GoJanuary 4, 2014
They have English muffins made on site- big and thick!
Gordon GaussJuly 18, 2013
Prime rib is good, White Wine Sangria is great.
