Best Restaurants for Local Ingredients in Pasadena

What a great way to take advantage of a beautiful LA day! Had brunch here and absolutely loved the outdoor venue and walking around seeing all the art. Had never really been to this part of LA and I was certainly missing out. Such a great vibe. Originally from the south I’m pretty critical when it comes to southern food but the beignets and cornbread were spot on. So yummy! Everyone at our table loved the shrimp and grits…just meh. The sides were true stand outs and the blistered snap peas were delicious. The popover Benedict was unique and the market salad had such unexpected ingredients. We loved them all and will definitely be back. And don’t forget the fun cocktails, and yummy desserts . Service was great as well!

Was there for brunch before a show at the Amundsen theater. We had settled on two menu items to order and then our server told us they were both not available. It was one substitute. Quiche Lorraine. It was good but small portion. We ordered as an appetizer, roasted brussels sprouts with balsamic glaze, goat cheese, and dried apricots. This was the star of the meal! our waiter was very attentive and personable. 

Great and unusual food, terrific service, and a wonderful experience before or after theater or concert.

What a wonderful experience and super venue. Service was impeccable. All food and pastries are made in house and 10 out of 10. Absolutely great afternoon. Make reservations and be on time. We look forward to coming again! Sure to impress anyone looking for out of the box experience.

This was our second visit. We had tried this restaurant for dinner and this time went for brunch. We enjoy sitting on the patio, and it is dog friendly.
