Bistro 45

Reviewed By Ninodebalia

As long as you are prepared for what the check says at the end of your meal...The dishes are all well presented and tasty. (Although our halibut was a bit on the dry side this evening.) The kitchen is also flexible and accommodating which is especially nice when you can not or do not eat certain things. Don’t be shocked when you look at the red wine list and there are only a few bottles under $100. The wait staff is attentive and friendly. Our wait person made a mistake (accidentally poured water in a red wine glass) and profusely apologized the rest of the evening. He also gave us all a complimentary glass of wine and desert, which we really appreciated.

La Grande Orange Cafe

Reviewed By Christie V

Dined out on the patio. It was a very warm day, but they have a commercial grade, free standing air conditioner out there and it really helped. They serve French pressed coffee. The food and service was very good, there were about 35 of us. They are also a pizzeria. When leaving, the dining room which is quite large was totally packed with patrons. I have a feeling this is a neighborhood gem restaurant.

Wow, Russell’s is perfection folks. Lighting quick service and delicious food. What is better? Our food wait time was literally five minutes! Me and my wife both had pancakes (she had banana pancakes), eggs, bacon, a blueberry muffin and a breakfast burrito to go. We reheated the burrito the next day for breakfast and it was DELICIOUS! That just goes to show you the fresh ingredients they use. If you are in the greater Los Angeles area, the drive to Pasadena is worth the trip. You can park on the street or just park in the garage and the business will validate your parking. Pure perfection!

This restaurant while a chain has grown to be a regular lunch netting stop . Charming service all ways good bar and a pretty straight forward but varied menu I almost lays get the grilled trout w cabbage and goat cheese., trout being hard to get well cooked. My guests always love the food too . I like a reliable place with a lively clientele and beautifulAtmosphere don’t miss the fish pond and the bear pictures . Men love the steaks and hamburger here grilled perfect and the sides seasonal don’t miss the grilled artichoke big enough for two . Come early for dinner as it is crowded but just grab a drink and watch the koi and chill

Reviewed By Peppy H

Had reservation at 5:30 but we were not seated until 6:00 when they tried to seat us outdoors (where is was cold and I was with an 89 year old mother who is diabetic and had taken her insulin anticipating eating at 5:30). Did not realize it was a pre-fix dinner when I made the reservations through open table. The first course was a "honey crisp apple " salad which had no apples and was sent back. The green bean almandine was hard as rocks and not cooked?. The main course of turkey and the winter squash was very tasty! The other issue was I ordered a $100 bottle of pinot (Goldeneye 2015) and they brought white wine glasses. I said to the waiter that if I order a bottle of pinot I expect to have pinot/burgundy glasses and suggested they go upstairs to the Royce and get some! Finally the manager got some but overall it was a bad experience for Christmas day dining!Dear Peppy,Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback regarding your holiday meal at The Terrace. We truly apologize for the issues which you encountered, and have reviewed them internally in detail with our Terrace staff and culinary team as we prepare for future holidays. We hope to have an opportunity to welcome you in the future so we may offer an improved experience.Best Regards,Paul LeclercManaging Director

We had lunch here to celebrate my Mom's 91st birthday and they did a lovely job. We were a large group of 11 people and our server stayed right on top of things and helped everyone, including two children. Their salads are huge (certainly big enough for two to share, which they do graciously). They also kindly let us bring a birthday cake and provided plates and offered to serve it. The food is delicious and everyone was happy, and it was quite reasonable.

Wide variety of exquisite selections on the menu. Pasta, seafood and steak choices all were outstanding and made it a difficult choice. Lobster crepe appetizer was delicious and fully endowed. Delicious lobster bisque sauce topped it off. I had the pan seared sea bass as a main course. Presentation was picturesque. Absolutely delicious. Wide variety of desserts as well. Again fabulous presentation. Moreover, our service was truly exceptional.

Reviewed By KimGTravels

Exquisitely enchanting experience within an historic setting along tree-lined streets, this European-inspired restaurant offers welcoming service and delicious dining within elegant, but not stuffy, surroundings. Floral arrangements and music delight, with seating on the garden front patio or within the intimate, elegant, wood-paneled library room adorned with frescoed ceiling. Enjoy a white peach Mimosa or Sangria with your signature Rosemary & Currant Bread house specialty. Finish with a decadent dessert. As you will not want to return to reality by departing, wander into the attached Gourmet Market & Gift Shop to complete this truly enjoyable experience. I am anxious to revisit this lovely family-owned venue.
