O.K. so I attempted to be thrifty and went to one of those cheep salons for my color, What a mess! I was just trying to tighten up the purse strings because of the economy...... I was desperate to return to my beautiful shinny blonde highlights, that used to look natural! A friend slipped me Elizabeth's card, and said,"she is worth it, you will be very pleased, she has been coloring my hair for years." I had no idah, my friends hair looks like mine used to , beautiful and real, not fake! What did I have to loose? What a great experence, Elizabeth took her time, and colored and cut my hair with precise care. She is an experenced stylist,has taken class's from some of the best stylist all over the world. She is confident in her ability to make your hair beautiful too.
Pros: evening appointments available
Cons: parking

I needed a last minute hair cut and was recommended to Cesare who saw me right away. From the moment he greeted me outside to the moment I left the appointment my experience could not have gone any better. Cesare recognizes each individuals specific needs and not only does he cut ( and/or treat/style) each individual accordingly, he explains what he is doing and how to maintain your new look. For me, I have two cowlicks, I wear my hair up all day, and yet I still want it to look nice down and be manageable for somebody who is low maintenance. I got all that and more...my boyfriend even stopped cesare periodically to take pictures because it has never looked so good...and healthy! Cesare is by far the best stylist I've ever had and the compliments I've been getting just reassures that I don't need to look any farther. Anything you need, Cesare can do it. HIGHLY recommended.
Pros: Professional, fun, stylist, great environment
Cons: Nothing

When I drove into the lot I knew this was the place. I could see and smell the sweet apple and oak coming out of the smokestack in the back smokehouse area. I found a nice smoke ring on my Tri tip and Baby back ribs and both were tender as well. This BBQ is as good as it gets and better than some in my home state of Texas.
Pros: Apple & Oak Wood for smoking, Shiner Bock on tap
Cons: Closed on Monday, no Monday Night football

I had lived in Pasadena for quite some time before I knew this place existed; it can be easy to miss when you're driving down the street. My wife and I always enjoy going. I have had both the pizza and the pasta and both were excellent. I always enjoy the atmosphere and its fun to eavesdrop on the interesting mix of people that come to dinner. The owner seems ever-present, floating around talking to the guests she knows. She seems like a very warm hospitable person and I think that comes through in the restaurant as a whole. Recommended for a romantic date on the town. Call for reservations.
Pros: Easy parking, interesting crowd, great food
Cons: Can get crowded

I LOVE this place. We have been for brunch, lunch, and dinner. The food is very fresh and well thought out. The flatbread pizzas are amazing. I especially like the artichoke asparagus one. They have a wide variety of wines that are delicious. If you are not into wine, don't let this pass you by because you see the "wine bar" part of it. The food is SO good. I just really love places that have fresh ingredients and this place always seems to have that. I feel like you get great quality food for a very reasonable price. And the owners and staff are always very warm and welcoming. They have periodic live entertainment off to a corner in the form of guitar, singing, etc. that is very enjoyable and not intruding as some live music dining can be. It adds a nice backdrop to the meal. The location is also perfect because it is very convenient if you are out on Colorado Blvd. because it is just off of it in a little alley without all the hustle and craziness. It is more relaxing and intimate there than anywhere you would find out on Colorado. I am so glad we stumbled across this place when we did and I have always been just as satisfied after every return visit.
Pros: Great food, great wine, great service, great value
Cons: that it isn't right around the street from my house so I can't go there every day :)

My boyfriend and I go to Mi Piace all the time. Sometimes we forget to make reservations and we'll wait a bit, but definitely worth it. Friendly workers, fantastic food and what a great ambiance. We're there every other Monday since they have the all day Happy Hour! prices are great and portions are just right! Absolutely recommend Mi Piace to everyone and will keep going there myself.

You won't be disappointed if you take your kids to hear him read. YOU will enjoy him, too. I hope Vroman's keeps him there FOREVER!

The Sake Pairing events give an opportunity to taste different types of high quality sake along with the food being served. It is something you really don't want to miss and bring along some of your friends. I guarantee you will have fun...as long as the sake keeps flowing!
Pros: Great fun, meet new people, delicious food, Excellent Sake!
Cons: Too small?

I lived in Pasadena for 10 years before I moved and I have yet to find better food than Saladang. Saladang is the most consistent restaurant I have ever eaten at. The service was always awesome. And the food was always good. When I come back it will be on my things to do in LA list. I miss you Saladang!!!!
Pros: Too many to list.
Cons: Parking only issue.
