Best Restaurants for Outdoor Dining in Pasadena

We spent our third consecutive Christmas Eve at The Raymond having a wonderful Christmas Eve dinner with carolers dressed in period garb singing Christmas carols throughout the eating areas. Despite how busy the evening was, we felt relaxed, unrushed, and the ambiance the service were great, the food was excellent, and the ambiance exceptional. Love The Raymond for its charm and history. Always cozy and intimate.

We had a great experience here!! The food and service were exceptional. Shoutout to Kate our host and our wonderful waiter, Max who was friendly and also entertaining!! The truffle mashed potatoes were life changing!! I loved the Hamachi Crudo, burrata and filet minion. The desserts were delightful!!! So glad we came here again!!!

It’s an authentic Italian restaurant. The owner and staff has always been welcoming and friendly. The pastas are freshly made along with the specials. The fish are smoked and prepared with traditional techniques of hickory wood. Great selection of Italian wines make it complete. It’s a great family run ristorante!

I like True Kitchen cery much. I have been several times abd always have great food and service. Today I was able to take my sister and niece to celebrate my sister’s birthday. I’ve always eaten outside and today was the first time eating indoors. The food, ambiance, and service was spectacular. It was a little noisier than what I like but it did not dampen our lunch. Out server Kat was great. She even gave my sister a free dessert for her birthday. True Kitchen has something for everyone! I love it.

Lovely afternoon tea. Definitely worth a stop. Nothing fancy, just good food, and outstanding Teas.
