After reading the reviews, we were a bit hesitant. But a friend highly reccomended the restaurant, so we decided to give it a try and were not disappointed. They far exceeded our expectations and willingly accomodated our numerous requests. Upon arrival, we were greeted warmly with a ""bon jour"" and seated quickly. Being that our group was large - 16 people - we had made reservations a few days earlier and were seated in a very pretty area of the restaurant. Our waiter was patient with the group, brought out our drinks (beer and wine) and appetizers (salads) quickly and our dinner orders shortly after that. Dinner was delicious, with most everyone ordering the steak and some ordered the Penne Piccolo (divine!). Service overall was flawless, with the waiter and busboys going out of their way for us and even speaking Spanish for some members of our group. I can't say enough positive things about this little gem in South Pasadena. We'd go back in a heartbeat!
Pros: Ambience, location, service, food
Cons: Parking
