Incredibly Helpful, Reasonable, and Knowledgeable – I have known the owner of Spectacular since 1986, when his business was in the Eagle Rock Mall. I am shocked at the negative reviews, for Steve has been a model of good humor, helpfulness, and reliability. Having troubling eyesight, I have frequented Lenscrafters in Malls and Kaiser Permanente Optometry Services in Pasadena and Hollywood. There is no comparison. At Spectacular, he wait is shorter, the service less hurried, and the price by far more reasonable for both glass... read more

Incredibly rude – The owner of this store is exceptionally obnoxious. When passing by this small store with a limited and unfashionable collection I popped in and politely asked if they did any repairs. The owner being obviously very important and with few precious moments to spare proceeded to tell me his lawyer had advised him against it due to certain lawsuits in similar cases. He clearly thought he was quite clever and was visibly pleased with himself. I didn't really appreciate the condescension with my wife and childre... read more

Specstacular Fine Eyewear – This is my second time purchasing eye glasses from Spec-Tacular. I am always impressed with the selection of frames to choose from. Steve the owner really gives a lot of attention to detail to his work. You get what you paid for when you go to Sepc-Tacular.

worst service I have ever found in an eyeglass frame store – I went to this store based on the reviews that indicated he is a purveyor of quality eyeglass frames. I usually purchase my frames in europe, and I was looking for the best. I arrived at the store at around 9:30am, and it was closed. There was no sign anywhere indicating store hours. I asked the gentlemen in the neighboring shop if he knew at what time it opens, he said it opens at 10, so I decided to wait. At 10:10 nobody showed up, other than someone that walked ... read more

Very good lenses, honest service – I am not a fan of the LensCrafter type stores for glasses. I have known too many people who have had serious flaws from glasses ordered from LensCrafter type stores. I only have one pair of eyes and I want to protect them as best I can. Both my husband and I have purchased our glasses here and they do really great work. The owner is very precise about making the lenses correct for your eyes. The frames are all designer brands which makes them a little more expensive. However the lenses seem... read more

Very nice and a great shopping experience – I am not super-stylish. I don't expect anyone to spot my $600 glasses when I walk in the store. In fact, I'm pretty suburban, and I'm just looking for glasses that make me feel like I'm not a total loser. So far, I've bought 3 pairs of glasses from Steve at Specstacular over about 8 years. A while back, he had some very beautiful but very snooty young women working for him. Lately, though, the assistants have improved in quality and the last 2 times I bought glasses the entire expe... read more

Bad Service/Attitude – I wear/own 6+ pair of eyeglasses: Lunor, Lindberg, Italian Giogrio Armani, Seiko, Robert Marc, Oliver Peoples. I went into Spectacular Fine Eyewear in Pasadena seeking advise about a possible frame repair on a favorite classic frame. When I walked in Steve (owner) asked if he could help me. When I asked if they could assist with repairing a frame or refer me to someone who could, the friendly attitude evaporated. I was told by Steve that he spent all of his hours working at his store and that he did no... read more

Great Eyeglass Shop – I am a LONG TIME fashion eyeglass wearer that can be quite persnickety when it comes to frames and styles. I have purchased and have had 6 Oliver Peoples prescription (sunglases as well) filled here and can tell you that Specstacular Pasadena are really the best!! Steve the owner KNOWS HIS STUFF!!! His staff, Nancy is great too. They will not recommend a frame that does not look good on you. They understand facial structure and what type of frames would best suit your face. In addition, they are versed ... read more

Top quality products and service – At first glance, Specstacular seems like just another high end glasses shop in Pasadena. However the products are first class here and the staff is very willing to assist you as you sit and try many different style frames. I have been buying my glasses here for over five years and would not go anywhere else unless they could not get the specific ones I was trying to find. They do not carry all brands but they have everything I have ever needed. Steve, the owner, is very friendly and knowleg... read more
