The best burger/taco place in town! Super nice staff and the food is excellent. The crunchy beef taco is perfect. I love the burgers too. And a short wait for your order on top of that! read more

Food is always good here. But the woman who waited on me tonight does not make people feel at all welcome. l asked her if she could put the basketball game on and her response was "I don't know". that is terrible customer service! read more

I was in the area and wanting to eat breakfast so I came here. Luckily the place was not busy and was able to order food quickly and the wait time to be served was very short. I ordered their breakfast burrito with meat but did customize it by asking for them to not add ham to it. The burrito tasted amazing. To drink, I simply ordered a coffee read more

I needed a crunchy taco, and Bobby's Place does tacos. This is a big spot with plenty of tables and the service is friendly and helpful. I ordered the Crunchy Taco with ground beef, a Chicken Street Taco and a Bean & Cheese Burrito. All of it was tasty. My only issue is the salsa. While the roja salsa was ok, the creamy verde salsa was not to my taste. Unfortunately there are only two options (no Cholula, Tapatio, or even Tabasco). Oh well, there is a Ralph's next store, so despite that, the food was good and next time, I will try a burger. Bobby's Place is A'OK! read more

Our friends like going to Bobby's, we ordered burgers and chicken burritos. Burgers looked good and the burritos had good seasoning. Parking is located behind the building and is shared with a Chinese food restaurant and nail salon if you can't figure out how to park for it. Staff is friendly and helpful, they've got cool artwork on the walls. Fries were a little underdone in my option for smaller steak fries. And they needed to have fans going when hot. We opened the door to get a breeze. read more

Bobby's Place - 1/2 lb. Double Cheese - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Pasadena, California

I wanted a taco so wandered into Bobby's Place. It was very busy with people watching the Dodgers game. I was not prepared for the friendly staff and customers. My taco was just what I needed at that time. I can see why it's so popular. read more

I was in a rush and decided to try out something new that I hadn't been to before. Service here was good. The ambiance was bright and clean. The fries were perfect, not too well done but not undercooked. The burger was a pleasant surprise... It was a cross between a fast food burger and a backyard bbq type burger. I had it with all the fixings and let me tell you it was excellent. Was big but not annoyingly big. The only thing bad I could say is that I did taste a bit of heavy salt in a few bites. Overall I'd definitely come back here and the burger and fries were amazing. read more

One of my coworkers recommended this spot for lunch. I'd had their breakfast tacos once before--they were tasty but on the small side. This time, I went for the Ortega Burger (sourdough bread, jalapeño sauce, Ortega chile, grilled onions, and cheese) and some fries. The burger was super good--the crispy sourdough bread and spicy chiles were a great combo. The fries were awesome too, and they really hooked it up--I had more than enough to share with my coworkers. Great spot for a quick burger/lunch. I can definitely see myself ordering this burger again. Plus, it was super easy to call in for a quick pickup! read more

Very simple very delicious! been going there since Rick's tacos nice staff quick service outstanding sauce!

Came in just before closing and enjoyed all the food! The guys were super nice, and recommended 1/2 onion rings and 1/2 zucchini. The double Ortega burger was on my list of things to try. They surprised me by bringing out some fries so I could try them! Everything is delish, but the star of the show is definitely the house beer batter on the rings and *especially* the zucchini. Not sure what kind of culinary chemistry is happening, but this is the best fried zucchini I've ever had. My words were "the batter on the zucchini HITS!!" They go so perfectly together. The batter is reminiscent of Burger Parlor in Fullerton (RIP). When the batter is crispy in some places but ultimately melts in your mouth, I'm all in. It's a very difficult thing to perfect. Have missed those rings and have never found an equal. Until now. But trust me on the zucchini!!! You get soft batter that smoothly transitions into the softness of the zucchini. Just exquisite. I'll be back for jalapeño fries and more of that zesty zucchini! read more

It's been many years since I've visited Bobby's formally Ricks. But I was passing by today and wondered if they still had the best fries in town. So I stopped and ordered the cheeseburger combo. And well...they didn't disappoint. Best fries in town fried lightly crisp just how I remembered them. My burger was tasty and my coke was nice and carbonated. I thoroughly enjoyed my lunch while I was driving. read more

A Pasadena classic. I've been going to Bobby's before it was Bobby's. Back when it was Rick's on Del Mar and El Molino before all those condos. I'd pull up every Friday during football season after i played a game from 2011-2013 and my mom would get me a cheeseburger and a spudderito with what little money she had. I could take it even further back and say I'd come here and get some fries and ketchup with allowance money on my way home from McKinley School right down the street back in '05-'08. Routine perfection. This place has always executed a burger joint the way it should be: fast, efficient, friendly and great customer service. Now, years later, I carry on tradition and take my son here and tell him stories over a nice burger meal. He loves the cheeseburger combo. That's his go to with some ranch. You gotta try the Ortega double. Flavorful, perfectly seasoned, with the right amount of heat from the pepper. Fries made fresh to ordered and well salted. That's usually enough food for me but occasionally I'll order the classic spudderito. You gotta try it at least once. It's basically fries, salsa, and cheese wrapped in a tortilla. For some of you that might sound crazy, but I promise you, the simplicity of this item goes a long way. Make sure to get yourself some hot sauce and ranch. It goes good with everything on the menu. They have convenient parking out back, bathrooms, and also usually have sports or movie going on a big TV. Staff is always awesome and they even recognize us when we dine-in. Thank you all for the memories. read more

Great place my favorites are the Taco and the Taco Burger with their hot sauce it's a perfect pairing. I have been eating here for over 40 years. It was called Rick's back in the day. Thank you for keeping quality and quantity. I live in the high desert, whenever I'm in the area, I stop and order my usual. Service is great, ambiance is cool for eating and moving on. Bobby and staff. Thank you....... read more

LOVE this place! The service is warm and engaging and the sandwiches....EPIC!!! I'll be back! Love the jazz! Keep up the great work! read more

Came here to pick up a quick lunch. Parking was around the back. When you get in the front you'll see that the kitchen is open concept which I like so you can see everything going on. There's a small dining area with some tables but very spacious. Customer service was great! She was very friendly and patient with my questions about what was in and how a lot of the menu items were prepped. My bf ordered a bacon breakfast burrito and I got a breakfast sandwich with ham. I don't like mayo and she was kind enough to ask if I preferred butter to toast the bread since they usually use mayo. We thought the burrito was very flavorful but a little on the small side for the price. My bf ended up finishing the rest of my sandwich since he was still hungry. I enjoyed the sourdough bread they used and the ham slice was very thick. Overall pretty decent food but def appreciated the customer service most. read more

So grateful that this place has survived! Went for lunch two days ago. Made me reminisce about other joints now gone. Even though they no longer reside on the iconic Rick's location site, the flavors still bring memories of the first I ate there about 50 years ago. Keep the legacy alive. Thanks for being there. read more

The food is good of course and customer service. The tacos are great and the taco salads. Get it with extra hot sauce and it's even more better. The fries they have here is sooo good and tasty for big fries. The only reason for the 4 star is because they charge you $2.50 extra for cheese, which is pretty insane. I hope that changes because I've been coming here for over 20 years when it used to be called Rick's, and I never had to pay that much for cheese. Times have changed but I feel it should be a little more less expensive. OVERALL: I will always come back! The food is good and it's definitely considered a Pasadena classic :) read more

Good food- fantastic onion rings & my chicken quesadilla was delicious, and of course, their terrific burgers. So happy to see that this Pasadena staple has persisted all these years! read more

Amazing breakfast burritos! I had a sudden breakfast burrito craving and was in search of a good one that didn't require me to sit down to get it. After researching very briefly, I discovered Bobby's Place. It's located in the Ralph's shopping center, in the front and next to other restaurants on Lake. You can park at Ralph's and just walk over to Bobby's. It's literally right next door. So back to the burritos! I ordered two; one bacon and one sausage. I also ordered them with the salsa to be included on the side with my burrito. It was a to-go order and they wasted no time! They were quick, friendly, and efficient! The lady at the counter was so understanding that it was my first time there so I had no idea what I was doing, lol. But omggg...the burritos are so dang good! The bacon one was very generous with the meat. It had the perfect blend of cheese, potato, and egg. If you're not a fan of super hot salsa, don't include it with the burrito. I'm glad I got mine on the side. Highly recommend!! read more

Great burger! I would stream a little music to liven things up a bit. Just a thought.

I have fond memories of the old/original "Rick's" burger/burritos spot on El Molino and Walnut St. Stepping into Bobby's gave me that same nostalgic feeling. The food is still good!! They've added bacon to the menu. Everyone knows that "Everything tastes better with bacon!" Our burgers were just as we ordered and the fries....salt to fry ratio was perfect. It was also good to see our local "celebs" (Johnny Long) dining when we walked in... just like back in the day! This spot is definitely a hidden gem in Pasadena. Don't sleep on Bobby's....it's amazing spot with sports playing on the TV, you can't go wrong! Can't wait to go back! Oh and Bobby...I am glad that you survived the Covid pandemic. read more

Solid breakfast burrito with potato wedges, cheese, sausage, scrambled eggs, and I added refried beans. Easy parking w Ralph's next door. I was tempted to try their triple threat burrito, which has ham sausage and bacon in it, but I wasn't trying to get a coronary today. I appreciate the fact that I asked for well done potatoes and they did that which many places don't listen to that request. The salsa was pretty spicy and overall, I am full and content. read more

Bobby's Place - I'm from LA but when I come to Pasadena, it's a must I hit Bobby's to get a Spuderrito!! - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Pasadena, California

A very nice and good place! The customer service was great! I hade asked about thier spice levels and they gave me a nice tortilla taste cup of thier hot sauce. That was great of them! BUT, the hot sauce was no where near the level of hot... It was more flavorful, but tasty! I got the soughdough spicy cheese burger and fried zucchini, to go. I did eat it in my car. The drive and eat was fine, however, the grease factor was a bit much! Seeing the grease drip from my bag to my seat wasn't the greatest, but the taste was outta this world! The burger, all praises!!! The Zucchini fries... good... TBH, a lot of grease and batter, but too much of the actual Zucchini... Whemn both were in the bite, tasted great, but I think that I ate more of the fried batter than the vegetable itself... Still a good Zucchini fry :) Would I reccomend this place, sure! For the greasy sppon diner feel, its a very good place! read more

The breakfast tacos are to die for. I ordered two not know how small they are but more importantly how delicious they are. I had to place a second order for two more tacos and the owner actually asked my if I liked bacon and he said he would add some to my second order on the house. How kind is that. Great customer service . The breakfast tacos consisted of eggs cheese tomato jalapeños and a house sauce. This is a must try. I will be back. read more

Love Bobby's and have been going there since they were Rick's at the old location. This is yummy old school Mexican. My husband loves the Taco in a Bun, which is big in the Inland Empire, the mix of their taco meat with mustard is actually pretty good. My current fav is the combo burrito with lettuce, cheese and onions. The burgers are great and we get fries whether we're doing burgers or not. Very yummy, crispy and salty. Staff is great and currently we're waiting for them to reopen after a fire, fingers crossed because we are missing out fix! read more
