Awesome food. Service is fast and food has large portion enough for two people. I will definitely recommend it.

To be honest I was surprised to find the rating so low for this place. Ive been going here for 10+ years and never walked away disappointed. I highly recommend getting the bolognese but replace the pasta with fettuccine because they make it themselves. The portion is fair. However, i have noticed a decline in the quality of service which definitely saddens me but won't hinder me from returning. Overall definitely worth trying if you're in the area!

One of my favorite restaurants in Pasadena. Fabulous cioppino and penne arrabiata. Make sure you leave room for dessert!

The food and service were wonderful! We loved everything we got, and we enjoyed quite a long dinner. We got in early - it wasn't remotely full at 5pm, but got busier closer to 6:30-7. Loved the Scottish Salmon (special), the short ribs, and the filet mignon. Their bread is amazing, too.

Great food, atmosphere, location.

I have been eating here for years. I get the spagetti carbonara. The martini bar is a great place to stop at the end of a long day. Try the lemon drop. For desert you cannot go wrong with the chocolate soup. Yes! Chocolate soup. It is so indulgent. It's like a chocolate pudding, hot chocolate syrup, cake. It comes with a side of whip topping, strawberries and blue berries. So good.
