Order what you like. Everything is delicious! Service can be improved though --always mention the Special of the Day and a little cake & candle for birthday celebrants would come a long way

They started serving liquor about two months ago. Bonus! Reviews seem to follow a "love it or hate it" type of thing, but I like it. Give 'em a shot. You won't be disappointed.

Delicious food, great service! Love Mac, Erin and Mike is the best bartender! Try the artichokes, sexy mac and the classic burger. Pasta and seafood specials are out of this world! Yummy and fresh!

Every time I come down from Northern California I make my family come here. Everything is delicious but I love their tomato soup and sexy mac. Mmmmm.

Every darn thing I've tasted here is excellent. Standouts include the tuna tacos, the huaraches, and...well, again, just about everything.

The burgers are among Pasadena's best. But my fav menu items here include the ahi tuna tacos.

Really good food in an unassuming location. Walk in, seat yourself or order at a counter but you will be surprised by the yummy food. The corner is noisy but the food makes up for it.

Short rib Benedict is a must!! The Vegetarian egg scramble is good too. Don't forget a tasty cappuccino!

Odd location but vast menu with lots of specials and friendly service. Beer and wine is a bit disappointing but food is solid.

The bohemian raspberry is scrumptious! Matt is a great bartender!

The wild mushroom omelette is really good. Need to try.
Gene ChuangMarch 31, 2013
Burned down a second time, hopefully 3rd time is a charm with the fire sprinklers. Food is still great, though service is a bit disorganized.

Check your bill, the Chopped Salad is a dollar more on the receipt than the menu. Who knows what else is over charged.

Terrible service - took forever, orders were wrong, staff was indifferent. Food was good but not worth the hassle.
Michelle MooreJuly 20, 2010
Wait for reopening. It was burned down a couple weeks ago.
