About this business

History Established in 1952. The Original Tops, a Pasadena Institution since 1952, prides itself in using the freshest ingredients and staying true to the philosophy of home made food at reasonable prices. Once an old school coffee shop, turned bustling walk-up window - the Original Tops was one of the first pioneers to create the fast casual concept of true American dining. Whether it is our signature Pastrami Burger or our new Rib Eye Steak Sandwich, the Original Tops offers something for everyone.

I've only ate At the alhambra location years ago ! So I told my husband let's try Tops in Pasadena we can sit inside to eat we've never been to this location. Very surprised soo many people eating here the drive thru was lined up down the street. I had the Patty melt my favorite it was delish as were the zucchini fries. Hubby had pastrami chili fries he was very pleased. We're going back for sure!!
