Wonderful staff, food, and ambiance!! Have been going here for years and it’s always beyond satisfactory.
Julienne Fine Foods & Celebrations
Blue fin is one of my favorite sushi places ever! The staff if so sweet and chef is always making the best rolls. The sushi is incredibly fresh and consistent. I recommend it to everyone who visits!
Bluefin Sushi and Roll
One of my favorite local spots for coffee! Their chai is the absolute best. Staff is always friendly and the vibes are always high.
Jones Coffee Roasters
Kaldi is the best! The owners are so sweet and are usually there. The staff is great and their chai and caramel iced coffees are always well done. Their food is also great! I love the grilled cheese panini (I always add chicken!!).

Favorite pizza place in town! The staff is friendly and the pizza is super consistent and reasonably priced.
Tomato Pie Pizza Joint (South Pasadena)
The absolute BEST tea room! I’ve been going here since I was younger and it has stayed number one all these years (and I love tea rooms). Tea options are great and so is the food! So many pretty rooms and great service.
Madeline Garden Bistro & Venue
Delicious ramen! Such good ramen and it’s always consistent! Good service, there’s usually a wait but it’s so worth it. The vibe inside is nice too!
Ramen Tatsunoya
Nice ambience, excellent food, good customer service and an overall cool experience. Their fixed menus come with great portions for a good price. It’s a great experience because you watch them cook most of the pasta right in front of you!
UOVO | Pasadena
I absolutely adore Millie’s! The food is great and consistent and the energy is always nice. The wait can be long, especially on weekends, so I recommend joining the waitlist ahead of time.
