I love this little gem! Nestled in a nice corner off of Lake in Pasadena, you can always find street parking, and there's even a lot behind the building. That's a plus for me as I just ate at a great restaurant where the parking was a nightmare ... I won't be coming back. Just ate there again after a long time away ... possibly because of a really bad date I had some time ago.
