I love 21 Choices. The atmosphere is always upbeat, the people aim to please. They have so many toppings and mix-ins to choose from. And their daily specials are so yummy...the ingredients taste so fresh. And you can request as many samples as you'd like! My personal favorite is vanilla yogurt with circus animal cookies mixed in. On a couple occasions when my yogurt didn't come out as I'd like, I was given a gift certificate for a free frozen yogurt! There's always a line, but it's definitely worth the wait.

I love this place. I live in Downtown L.A., but I have no problem making the drive down to Pasadena for this delightful treat. The frozen yogurt is always the highest quality - very light and creamy and smooth, with no weird aftertaste or that sour yogurt flavor. It's impossible to believe this stuff is a low-cal treat. The flavors change daily and are posted on their website. The best I've had there is Cookies & Cream, but it's impossible to go wrong, even with their standard Vanilla. The best part about this place is the endless array of mix-ins. The combination possibilities will stretch your creative culinary muscle. Try pairing banana and macadamia nuts in Valharona Chocolate, or add animal crackers to Vanilla Bean. They have every mix-in fathomable, from fresh fruits to cereal to Twinkies. The only drawbacks are its location, parking (downtown Pasadena can get crazy at night), and the fact that there is ALWAYS a line. But the line moves fast, and the wait (and the drive) is totally worth it.
Pros: Great frozen yogurt, large selection of mix-ins
Cons: Location, parking, line

There really isn't anything better than booze, sports and some fresh popcorn, but I'm a popcorn fiend so I guess that explains a little.
This place has been a local watering hole for years, and you can definitely tell! Except, in most cases, being able to tell it's been around a while isn't usually a good thing.

I view myself as a fairly savy diner and dine out often. If you are looking for an experience in dining this is your kind of place. You need to go in understanding that this is a classroom for the students, once you understand this you will be blown away with the quality and creativity of the food. Granted the service is not 5 star but it is a great opportunity to spend time with aspiring chefs and restaurateurs!
Go there to have fun and enjoy the experience. Zagat and Michelin have also rated this restaurant.

I loved my experice at this restaurant the first time I went to A float. My family and I were greeted instantly by the waitress and seated. We went early (5:00) so it wasn't too crowded. My 2 kids loved the idea of this restaurant of picking your favorite dishes off the floating ships. I tried almost about everything with my husband. We both agreed this was the best sushi we have tasted in a long time, ever since we left New Jersey. There's just so much variety and the prices are reasonably priced, unlike another sushi restaurant I went to a couple weeks ago, which charged $5 for a small bowl of miso soup!! The waitresses/waiters were all really kind and patient that we had stayed for 2 hours. Most other busy places would just give us the check. As time passed, and it was 7:00, the place got crowded. I could see why this restaurant had such good buisness. It was because it was really worth the wait.
Pros: FOOD, atmosphere, service
Cons: None

This place is somewhat small, and I've only eaten from the sushi bar because that's where the novelty is. You pay per tray but have the illusion of buffet as little dishes of different sushi float by you on wooden boats. Take what you like until you give up. They tally you up by what patterns were on your dishes. It's just easy. The quality of the sushi is not perfect but still can satisfy your fix and gives an entertainment value to your dollar. They make rolls, nigiri, have soy beans out, tempura, deserts... all within reach. The service for drink refills on most occasions is a little slow and parking is typically in one of the garages around the corner, as most meters are occupied.
