    Fresh, baked bread rolls with a pesto dipping sauce
    Brooke K.

    Joe's Italian Grill may be a small place, but the quality of their food and great service makes up for that. Yes, for those of you who drink (not me), they do serve alcohol. This is a family friendly place with a touch of Italian culture. The bread rolls they serve you are baked fresh from the oven. The pesto dipping sauce that comes with it is the best we've ever had. Their desserts aren't too sweet, surprisingly. Joe's Italian Grill's menu isn't very vast, and you can't create your own pasta. Their desserts aren't listed. The salads are very plain. You'll have to check what desserts are available at their fridge where they store them. The cakes aren't labeled, so you have to ask the staff. Problem is most of the time, the staff don't even know what they are!

    Excellent and Efficient service the atmosphere was very welcoming staff made us so comfortable. Don't even get me started on the food really tasted like if I was taking a bite out of Italy! 10/10 recommend

    Large Greek salad
    Tiffany R.

    Food: We had the combination and a large Greek salad with chicken. Everything was fresh and full of flavor. I was impressed with the salad and the feta was *chefs kiss* so good. Lasagna was probably my favorite out of the combination, but they others were great. Service: It's impossible to have bad service here because they work as a team and the management is very involved. They did an excellent job and it shows. Drinks: We ordered the house pino and it was very reasonably priced. We will be back, great job!

    My family raved about this place so much my mom had a small graduation get together here and I will say despite the place being small they were very accommodating to our larger group and our server even helped with decorating our table. Our food was delicious fresh and came out practically steaming! I think it's fair priced for homemade italian food and I will be coming back!

    Side salad with gelatinous "Italian" dressing

    We arrived at dinner and the entire restaurant was empty. We were seated and ordered a Cabernet to which the waitress responded with "I don't know what that is" and rushed off to get a lesson in wine. While she giggled away with her teenaged fellow employee, we waited patiently to ask some questions about the expansive menu. I asked if they offered gluten free pasta and again, the response was a blank look and "I don't know" and then she asked her co-worker. Fortunately they do offer it despite it not being mentioned in the menu. We ordered a lasagna and chicken caciofini (artichoke) that was served with a pink sauce. Both came with salads: iceberg lettuce, a single slice of tomato and once slice of red onion and covered in fresh mozzarella cheese. The Italian dressing was bright orange, thick and sugary. My partner got the "house dressing", a tomato based dressing that looked and tasted exactly like red sauce for seafood. The servings were large, could provide 3-4 meals per person. The caciofini tasted like canned Chef Boyardee, again, sugary and truly not to my taste. The lasagna was also a bit sweet and had an interesting flavor, but more like a Greek dish - nutmeg perhaps- in it. The wait staff spent their time giggling, gossiping and generally being teenagers. While we were there, a GrubHub driver arrived to pick up an order and was told the restaurant had no contract with them and left him hanging at the door, looking a bit confused about what to do next. In general, I am confounded about the great ratings on this place. From the service to the food, it was truly disappointing.

    This place is a hidden Italian secret in pasadena. Must try and if you like pizza that have some amazing ones to try. Menus is full and plenty of options. They also sell wine and beer. Service is amazing also.

We ordered the large Greek salad and added chicken as our appetizer. It was very fresh and enough to share. I decided on the Build Your own pasta with shrimp, linguine, basil, olive oil, mushrooms, and roasted garlic. It was delicious! The shrimp wasn't skimped on and cooked perfect. The noodles could've been on the saltier side to give it some flavor. Not a big deal. I fixed that by adding some salt and a lot of red chili peppers to it! My husband ordered the Chicken Fettuccine Alfredo. I like that their garlic knots weren't greasy from all the butter and just the right consistency of not too soft or hard. We also ordered a large custom pizza that included 6 toppings for take out for my parents. The pizza was baked perfectly and generous with the toppings. It was very good and I loved how it wasn't greasy either. I told the owner I have a suggestion to open up a location in Humble where we live. The Pizza Lounge is so much better than Italiano's. It's definitely the best Italian restaurant in Pasadena. If you haven't been give them a try, you won't be disappointed. We'll be back soon since our office isn't too far.

Dinner started off with delicious garlic bread and dipping sauce. Table has all the condiment trimmings of red pepper, salt, pepper, Parmesan, and garlic powder for the diehard vampire hunters. Pretty pleased to have an option for a ridiculous amount of garlic. Breaking open the bread and seeing the steam unfolding into swirls past the crisp outer layer was a gorgeous sight. Dipping sauce was good as I added a bit of the added table condiments. Dinner came with a dinner salad. I ordered crab and shrimp ravioli which was dressed with carrots and peas. I added an obscene amount of garlic and capers for an added flavor composite. The raviolis were absolutely delicious. By far some of the best ravioli that I have had in the recent years. This was my first to experience crab and shrimp stuffed ravioli and they did not disappoint. The added capers really kicked it up. Dessert was going to go the norm of tiramisu but the Dubai Chocolate cake caught my eye and salivated my mouth. The pistachio and Katafi pastry filling was superb. The slight katafi pastry crunches against the creaminess of the pistachio was texture heaven! Highly recommend this dessert! Overall my meal was wonderfully done. From start to finish, I was given great service and more importantly a full belly with an Italian ambiance. As a solo diner, it was a pleasure to visit here and enjoy a delicious meal! Will be back again Shoutout to Ariana the server on my returning visit as she was incredibly genuine and well attentive to my returning visit. Ordered an appetizer of meatballs which came out piping hot. Sauce was delicious. Made mini subs from the garlic bread. Dinner was Chicken Carciofini. Sun dried tomatoes, spinach, and chicken was seasoned well in sauce over angel hair. Found the dish refreshing in flavor and truly a new favorite of mine. Dessert was a key lime pie to go. Excellent tartness was matched with the sweetness of the topping.
