Great Girl's night out – Great decor and interesting, tasty food and wine choices. Such a trendy place just off the beaten path of Old Town. Great place for a romantic date, or a mini-girls' night out.
yum This place is like wine heaven. The place is elegant and my husband and I stopped for tasting. before we left, we ended up buying a case of mixed variety.
Good place for wine flights – This is a coolplace for Pasadena and I do enjoy the wine flights. Its a little pricey but the staff is knowledgeable! I have never tried the food but they do have wine/ Food pairings.
Portion sizes are laughable, wine tasting is overpriced, but service is superb. – I rarely write reviews but felt compelled to this time. The portions at this place are almost laughable. The strip steak comes serviced on a small square plate about 5" x 5". That is about $18. For about the same price you can get a red snapper cut in small slivers for the same price. The "wine tasting" is not what you expect. The cheapest flight is $15 for only three-2 oz. servings. I thought it was a great idea to wine taste while eating but ... read more
Everything's GREAT!!! – I love Vertical!!! I was there last Friday for my birthday. We were a party of 10 but the server made everyone of us feel at home. I particularly love their little wine booklet with 10+ different flights and a wide selection of wine by the glass. You can read about the wines in the different flights and you can also take down notes in the empty spaces they provide. I guess you can take the booklet home and I did! I didn't expect much foodwise but they turned out to be good too! I had the pan seared sc... read more
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
