Great food, reviews on 3 course menu – Just back from dining here. Had the prix-fix menu $28 each. Wife had the salad and steak, I had the grill cheese and salmon. Never thought I would have grill cheese for dinner but I did(this is obviously not your normal grill cheese), nice strong cheese on a raisin bread(very good) the salmon was tender and not dry. My wife liked the salad and steak. Took our own wine ($20 corkage fee) so can't comment on the wine list but they did have a nice variety which was reasonably priced. With a... read more
An undiscovered gem for lunch – I tried this place for the first time today for a nice Friday lunch. I understand they only recently started serving lunch so they weren't crowded, but from my experience they should be! I suspect the decor of the restaurant was designed with evenings in mind, but it was still quite congenial with the sunlight streaming in the tall windows down one side of the room. The service was perfect--attentive and very friendly without being obtrusive. I was dining alone with a book and have sometimes f... read more
Lovely place – This is a beautiful place. The portions are indeed good for the small plates that they serve. The wine list is one of the best in Pasadena minus the dinning room at the former Ritz. Its nice to see this sort of intimate dinning experence that doesn't turn into a club after a certain time. My wine was a tad bit off and the server was wonderful about it. You can't say enough about a good attitude. Thumbs up by all in my party
Old Town Pasadena's progressive wine experience matches small plates to wine. – In Short Film producer Gale Anne Hurd's ("Terminator") elegant eatery focuses on the concept that wine, not food, is the anchor of a meal.Sommelier Scott Teruya's (formerly of Pinot Provence) list carries a selection of 250 wines from around the world; 100 are available by the glass as well as 20 flights. A small plates menu features fig poppers, braised pork ribs and cheese and charcuterie plates. The decor mixes a palette of rich chocolate hues... read more
Great ambiance, friendly hostesses, upscale decor, tasty appetizers! – I went here with a date for wine and appetizers; I haven't yet tried any of their entrees. Their hostesses were friendly and accomodating. Their front bar area features comfy couch-style seating and candles. The decor reminded me of an upscale loft -- exposed brick, wood beams, iron supports, etc., with darker earth tones everywhere. They have a great wine selection, but the pinot noir I tried was a little tart for my taste. (Granted, it was their cheapes... read more
Great Wine, Food, Service, Ambience & Location – I've been here a few times and I love it. It's the only other wine bar I know of in Pasadena. This place has more seats and much better selecion of food than the other place, but I would still recommend both. It' nice to have an alternate choice of where to go by changing location every now and then.
Best Food and Wine in Pasadena! – I took a valued client here for dinner and had a marvelous experience! The food portions are perfect. We had a very informative waiter who made excellent suggestions. The polenta is the BEST I have ever had as well as the skirt steak. The ambience is a perfect balance of "New York City" meets cozy chic. The only problem is getting a reservation here!
GREAT PLACE – I went here on Feb 18th and had a really fabulous time with a group of friends of mine. The staff was very helpful and knowledgeable when it came to choosing wine. Overall, we had great food and drink and we were treated like they wanted us to come back.
