EVERYTHING IS GOOD. Best food I've had in Pasadena. Had swordfish special that was phenomenal! Def recommend their 'four cheese sexy mac'. Their Affogato is also great!

Can’t comment on the food or drink because I was never sat. Came alone with my dog to grab a drink and dinner, there was the entire open patio available but the hostess chose to seat a nine-seat party behind me in line instead of me (neither of us had reservations). ???I don’t know how one extra person on the patio would have put a strain on the staff, it really felt like she just didn’t want to seat me. The vibe seemed nice, hope I actually get sat someday if I ever come back.

This is our favorite go to place in the neighborhood The food is always delicious and a little adventuresome. The chef likes to change up the menu frequently and there are some favorites that are always there. I love the tuna tartare tacos. But he also makes duck confit, bouillabaise, bone marrow. Their happy hour is great where you can have a taste of lots of fabulous small plates. If you like oysters, there is always a selection of very fresh offerings. Love this place!!

Had an awesome Birthday Brunch with my family. The food is sooooo good! Our waiter was very very fast too and on point. Love the outdoor seating. The Southwest steak and eggs were outstanding and my kiddo loved his blueberry pancakes and eggs. My mom also said those were the best French toast she's had at a restaurant in a very long time. Highly recommend for breakfast, lunch and dinner!

As a restaurant my friend and I frequent, I was rather disappointed in our experience today. We always enjoy coming here, and chose it for lunch with another friend who had never been here. I made the reservation 4 days previous, so was very surprised to see a table with 30 to 40 people on the patio. There was no room inside because of this, and therefore we were seated outside at a folding table and weird chairs over in a corner. It was chilly and noisy. Why did I make a reservation? Needless to say, this was not how I wanted to introduce my friend to a favorite restaurant. I wish I had been told there was going to be such a large party, and I may have changed the time is maybe even the day.

The food here is really tasty and very nice atmosphere where you can enjoy the brunch specials.

Very nice place, great Margarita. However we order food and waited 30 mins to be told that they did not have food anymore, it was on the menu. Then the person taking care of of said our fries we order were coming, another 15 mins and we decided to leave. She gave us a bill, and the bill was over 100.00 then we mentioned this was not our bill. Then she did it again and charged us for 2 Margaritas which we only had 1 Margarita and a beer the entire time there. Finally she brought us a correct bill, we left there starving. .

The restaurant was full and busy but seemed understaffed. Our waitress only brought 4 waters when we have 5 people and waited for awhile till the 5th water was brought to our table. And servers did not refill our water throughout the whole meal. When we make the reservation, we put birthday celebration as the reason we went for brunch but we didn't get to celebrate. The waitress has no idea what was on the reservation and when we told her, she said she would get a ice cream or small dessert but never came back with it and we had to leave due to doctor appointment. That was disappointing. Other than that the food was good but i don't know if i will go back for any special occasion. We would go back for regular meal only.

The food was amazing. The house wine on the happy hour menu was pretty good. The waiter was very helpful. The interior is was more appealing than the outside. I would definitely eat here again. I recommend the ahi tacos 10/10.

Very disappointed. Gluten free items are not actually gluten free. Seems like they have no clue what they're serving you. If you care about what you're consuming, beware! No separate frier for "gluten free" items... I hate when restaurants advertise something is gluten-free, but they are fried and gluten oil. Duh

I very much enjoyed the ambiance and service but unfortunately I was unable to eat what I had wanted. That particular day the restaurant had run out of items I was interested in. I was admittedly disappointed.

TLDR: Price and experience didn't match up for us. Maybe our server was just having a bad day but I was really disappointed in the service. I tried to order the house peppercorn martini but was told that “most women send it back”. So I ordered a regular martini instead. Unfortunately it wasn't great, took 30 MINUTES to make and arrived AFTER we had finished our appetizer. The food wasn't tasty enough to outshine the long gaps that made our dinner date before a show turn into a dragged out 1hr and 20 min meal.
