Please note, I contacted the owner Arya. This Rounds has closed. I'm sorry about that. My hubby really liked this place. Sadly it is closed

So...looks like this place is closed. For good? Who knows? Came at dinner time on a random Thursday and there was just a sign on the door that said "Closed". Nobody answered the phone either.

Read this! Underwhelming. Their tagline is premium burgers however, The patty was cheap FROZEN patty from COSTCO, not seasoned or cooked well. I was starving otherwise trash it after first bite! Restaurant just confirmed that is frozen! Won’t come back. Don’t waste your money $36 for two burger and one fries! fries also was two oily fatty and large chopped garlic! Hate it all

Almost $18 for a cheeseburger fries and a small drink. For this amount I expected something way above average. Nothing was better than your average burger joint. The patty looked like something you buy frozen in a bag at Costco. It was as tasteless. Fries were average. There are tastier places down the street. Not going back.

The fries were good - your standard thick frozen fries with the crispy outside and soft inside. I wish I could give a higher review for the burger, but the Mucho Mushroom burger I just had was just OK. The meat tasted a little off - almost gamey and freezer burned, and not as premium as I expected. It seem liked it could also be cooked a little longer, and the swiss cheese wasn't really melted. Maybe it was an off day for them?

Very good burgers and good prices. My only regrets are two changes that they've made since Covid. They changed their fries from fresh cut to frozen. They used to be incredible when fresh but really are just average now. They also changed the BBQ sauce for the Western Burger. They used to have a self serve pump with a wonderful tangy sauce. Now they use a bland Sweet Baby Ray's packet. If they changed these two operational negatives they'd get a solid 5 Stars.

Food is delicious, the place is clean, nice, and on top of that, they've got very friendly staff. We ordered the Executive burger--can't recommend it more! The blue cheese makes the flavor great; also their onion rings are very crispy and even the regular size is generously portioned. If you sit by the window during sunset hour the view is nice after a long day of work.

Great first experience dining in at Rounds Premium Burgers! It's a comfort food home run in a fast casual setting with a hint of sports bar vibes! Really reasonably priced for the quality and portion size. Especially when you use the buy 1 get 1 free coupons that you get in the mail if you live nearby. Seriously, every month we get a glossy sheet of coupons with huge discounts (see included photo).After a busy Sunday we were craving burgers, so we spontaneously texted our friends and met up at Rounds with our buy 2 get 2 free coupon in hand. Arriving at about 5:30pm the place was almost empty and we had our pick of free parking in the lot behind the restaurant. As you can see in my photos we also had our pick of tables when we sat down. By 6:30pm the place was getting busy. Pro tip, get there early and get your food really quickly and well made before the kitchen gets slammed and the place gets crowded.We had ordered takeout a couple of times during the pandemic and were pleased with what we got. Dining in when the place was not busy was next level food joy. Perfectly cooked, hot and fresh right out of the kitchen is the way to go.I tried the brunch burger and my wife had the Santa Fe. We shared thethe garlic fries and the lemon pepper fries with our friends. The lemon pepper fries were generously seasoned and were the flavor wow for me. Our friend preferred the garlic fries due to her childhood nostalgia for sports stadium garlic fries. Can't argue with that.The burgers were great. Similar to Red Robin pub style burgers but slightly smaller and less expensive. For years back in Seattle our go to chain for pub style burgers was Red Robin. We had one right down the street from our house. Here in Pasadena Rounds is right down the street from our place. We are already calling Rounds Premium Burgers our new Red Robin!Oh yeah, we also got a pint of Blue Moon on tap. That was our favorite beer to get at Red Robin!So, if you are craving a good pub style burgers, seasoned fries, and beer on tap I recommend that you give this place a try soon.

It's fine. They make decent burgers and have a decent tap beer list. The problem is the kids that work here. They really don't seem to give a s**** Honestly I don't think this place will be open for more than another year. But hey for now they make decent burgers.

My go-to place for lunch in Pasadena. The fries are well-done and salted nicely, the burgers are always filling, and they get orders made quick. Never have had to wait more than 20 minutes, and that includes one order that had 7 different burgers and combos. Usually have Friends/Seinfeld or some sporting event on the TVs so it's a good spot for a casual bite in town.
Love the Rounds burger - I'm in there at least once a week! Great taste, love the bun on the burger, and there are so many toppings to choose from. Reasonably priced as well. And a wide variety of burgers and sides on the menu. This is my #1 burger spot!!!

The Buffalo Fries are the best! I always get them along with the Mucho Mushrooms Burger and love that i can customize the burger so i always get it with a chicken breast instead of beef patty. The place is spacious that offers inside&outdoor seating. Love it

Rounds Premium Burgers is the only burger place we ever want to go to. Every time we think burger we say, "let's go to Rounds." We actually haven't been any other place for burgers for two years. First of all, the meat quality of Rounds' burgers is superb and there's so many different ways to have them topped. Second, we usually have a coupon to get two burgers for one price, making this the best burger deal in Pasadena. We add drinks and their great french fries or great onion rings and we are so so happy. They have about 20 extra sauces you can choose from, too. Free refills on drinks. And very nice staff!! Outside tree-shaded patio seating and/or ample indoor seating and lots of free parking in back. Perfection!

We got the California burger with delicious crispy sweet potato fries. Overall great meal and service. Received our food pretty fast. Clean bathrooms with parking on the street and a lot in the back. Plenty of seating for large groups. Definitely recommend checking this place out.
