Best Restaurants with a Happy Hour in Pasadena

Excellent dinner and service. The food was delicious and nicely presented. Servers were always ready to refill glasses and to bring bread. We could not recommend highly enough! Fantastic ambience!

The free range brick chicken with a slightly tart but sweet lemon sauce was a great choice for a cold rainy day. Served with a side of mashed potatos and steamed brocoli, it definitely met the need for a comforting meal. My server, Olive, was very attentive, ensuring that I capped my experience with a hot tea.

This was my first time here. Made Valentine’s Day reservations. We were seated immediately, seating was comfortable and we were seated next to a window by the patio which was cool because they had fires on the patio and it made where we were sitting more romantic. They went the extra mile and gave every woman a long stem nice quality rose. All the staff was super nice and helpful with suggestions. Neither of us have done “farm to table” before. They had many options that sounded good and we both had to choose and needed up getting the same thing. The food was great, I couldn’t eat it fast enough 😅 it was a bit pricey but that’s to be expected with the farm to table stuff I assume. Wasn’t so expensive though. We decided we want to go back and try other options soon. Also the interior design was gorgeous. Very cozy ambiance. I definitely recommend trying The Lodge at least once if you are in the Pasadena area. It’s right where green turtle used to be. I would like to thank The Lodge for their help in making our first Valentine’s Day date together a memorable experience

We visited for a pre-Valentine's Day date night with the new V-Day specials/drinks that they advertised on Facebook/IG. The food at Park Tavern never disappoints and is always amazing. There are always new monthly specials that make it worth it to visit a few times each month. The staff here make it a super friendly experience and are one of the main reasons we frequent Park Tavern. Everyone is so welcoming and the atmosphere itself always puts off a good vibe. We recommend this to all of our friends and even my wife's work holiday party gets held here.

We dined at The Smith in DC twice for dinner and enjoyed it so much that we returned for lunch the next day! The food was delicious and fresh, with a menu that perfectly suits an American-style restaurant. The staff was very accommodating, and the pricing was moderately valued. We were very satisfied with every visit. Staying at the hotel across the street made it even more convenient. I only wish I had taken food photos to capture how great everything looked! We’ll definitely be back next time we’re in DC from Miami!
