I walked into this retro diner (that felt more like a time warp), feeling all nostalgic from the tables to the chairs to the flooring. I ordered the kebab plate; it arrived with pita, hummus, roasted anaheim pepper, basmati rice, cucumber salad, and two kabobs. I could not wait to make it disappear. I really enjoyed the roasted grape tomatoes as they were bursting with flavor--everything was delightful. We only part to meet again. Next time I have my eyes on the falafel plate, tikka masala, and the curry fries. The cool thing is you do not have to be vegan to enjoy a meal here as they have something for everyone including burgers and fries. Mediterranean, Indian, and American fare are all offered here. Service was great. Plenty of seating inside and a small outdoor seating in the front. Street parking and bathrooms available. If you like what you see, go see what you like!

Bee and Wali were just as friendly and kind as their reputation. I admire their hard work and dedication so much, they've built something incredibly special. In other words, a welcoming and comfortable space with food that is OUT OF THIS WORLD DELICIOUS!!!! I had the chicken schwarma pita with fries and every single bite was a party, a celebration of what it means to be human with taste buds! Super fresh and visually stunning, secret ingredient is love. I can't wait to come back!

To say this place is popular would almost be an understatement. How can a breakfast place be this…read morepacked on a weekday at 10:30 AM?! I literally got the last seat in the joint, and it's not a small place, with indoor and outdoor seating. Due to the popularity, finding parking is a bit of a chore. They have a lot but it is obviously filled to capacity with people waiting in the aisles for someone to leave. Service was very friendly and attentive. They're busy, and thankfully they employ a rather large staff of servers and busboys. And the food? It's killer. I got the pistachio latte, which was amazing and almost comically large. I also got the lavender lemonade, which is just freshly made lemonade with a lavender syrup poured in, sitting sadly on the bottom. Just stick with regular lemonade. I ordered the blueberry French toast, a side of bacon, and some hash browns - which I think they only have on weekdays. The waitress was very helpful and nice and pointed out I should get the combo with two eggs for less money. I did, even though I don't eat eggs, and took a couple cooked over hard home for my son. They looked good. The blueberry French toast was terrific. Excellent flavor, great texture, and the right balance so it wasn't too sweet overall with the syrup. The bacon was great, but it's usually hard to screw up bacon unless the stuff has gone bad. The hash browns were the only disappointment. They look good, but they are a little greasy and not very well seasoned. They're basically too bland. Still, this is one of the best breakfasts I've had in the San Gabriel Valley and around Pasadena. I can see why it's so busy, and I will definitely be back. Recommended. Just go!

I came here when in the area and craving a savory breakfast. Thankfully, they have an array of…read moreoptions with a vegan menu composed of everything from breakfast burritos to waffles and pancakes. When I stepped inside, I was greeted right away by the very friendly staff. I was seated right by the window where I was able to people watch. I was so happy they it was nice and cool inside, as it was sweltering hot outside! They were very fast when taking my order. I ordered the vegan famous breakfast burrito with the plant based Mexican chipotle sausage. It was just as delicious as the menu described it to be. The burrito was fully loaded with tofu eggs, which were crumbly and salted, some buttery avocado slices, crispy tater tots that were fried to perfection, and delectable and melty vegan cheese. The Mexican chipotle sausage worked so well in the burrito, adding a nice savory and meaty flavor while also adding some heat to the dish. I felt so great after eating it and it was very filling. The ambiance here was lovely and it was fun, upbeat and cheery. The seating was so comfortable and I felt relaxed and at ease while dining here. I loved the promptness and attention to detail. I didn't end up getting coffee, as I already drank 2 cups before coming here and it was barely noon. But the smell of espresso had me drooling and making me wish I could stomach a third cup! But it gives me a reason to return! Along with so many other enticing vegan dishes! Parking was super easy as I found a spot on the street right in front of the restaurant. But they also have a parking lot behind the restaurant with plenty of parking!

Paul is very nice and made me feel so welcomed! He remembered me even though I've only been there…read moreonce. He was very knowledgeable about the menu and offered great recommendations. If I recall correctly, he said that the strawberry cake ball, coffee cake, and a few others were popular picks. There is only outdoor sidewalk seating (a total of 3 small tables with 2 seats each). The interior is tiny, and it carries the feel of a quick in-and-out pickup store. It's also right across the street from Pasadena's Central Park if you're looking for a stroll while you eat. It's very transit-accessible. It's a 5 minute walk from the A line Del Mar station. death by chocolate cookie ($3.85) - It's just a typical double chocolate cookie! It's a little gritty and dry (maybe it's gluten free?) but still delicious nonetheless. coffee cake ($5.88) - sweet, with a flavor of cinnamon (not in an overpowering way). If you enjoy coffee cake, definitely get this, as vegan coffee cake is a rarity in Pasadena and LA. ice cream sandwich ($9.25) - honestly, i think this was a little too sweet for me. The ice cream itself was plain vanilla soft serve, but when sandwiched by two entire chocolate chip cookies, I think the sweetness can be overpowering. Keep in mind that it also melts very fast (since it has the consistency of soft serve) and this makes it hard to keep the whole sandwich in shape. If you do not plan to eat it right away, I would not recommend getting this as it'll melt in a mere minute.

Noodle Street has always been one of my go-to places for comfort food and a good noodle dish. This…read moretime, I had about an hour to kill while waiting for my appointment at the Apple Store in Pasadena. I was walking around thinking about what to eat. The I saw the Noodle Street sign. Of course, I went in because I already know the quality of their food. I always find their noodles fresh and chewy, and the dishes are rich in texture and flavor. But this time, since I was by myself, I didn't order a noodle dish because I was just by myself. So, I ordered the beef roll, which is also to die for! Just really enjoy their food overall. If you've never tried Noodle Street before, definitely check out their menu and give their noodles a try. This particular location was clean, the staff was nice, and the wait wasn't long when I arrived. I would definitely come back again! I'd like to add one more detail. While I was waiting for my food, one of the staff members, possibly the manager, Justin, came over and asked if I'd like to have a small bowl of broth on the side. I said yes and was impressed by that offer. Why? This young man understood that I had ordered only the beef roll, which is a dry dish. Having a little warm broth on the side made it much easier and more enjoyable to eat. I had water, though, but I personally never drink water before or after my meal, so the broth was definitely a perfect complement to the beef roll. This is the first time in my Noodle Street eating history that I've been offered something simple to enhance my dining experience. A small gesture that I think is worth mentioning, as it showed that he was attentive and had very good common sense when it comes to customer service. Thumbs up to him, and an extra star from me for this location.

Most of the dishes are Korean and Korean spiced versions however so be prepared. I expected the food to be much spicier and more pungent. They are not -- they are modernized slightly lighter versions of Korean noodle dishes. I'm addicted to the cold noodle salad with kale, carrots, and you can ask for it with tofu as I'm not eating beef for the next six months due to the beef recalls nowadays. Love the modern simple setup. There is a crew of chefs in the back cooking behind the glass. The staff are attentive and they take Apple Pay. I cannot believe the prices here. They are very reasonable. Why go to a fast food restaurant? End of Yelp.

I've visited Miya twice now and I can say it's a genuine go to neighborhood food spot…read more We got the Khao Soi Chicken, Basil Crispy Pork, and Pad Siew. We got the Yellow Curry Chicken, Thai Tea, and Mango Sticky rice as well (just not in the photos) and those were also a staple. All were phenomenal and had such rich flavor. The Khao Soi Chicken was truly the star of the restaurant and I would definitely recommend this dish for anyone interested in trying thai cuisine. The service is always friendly and the ambiance is very warm and pleasant. It's a very humble and family/neighborhood oriented space. I would recommend to come visit them early (they open at 11:30) since people do line up to eat here. It's a little small in the main area but they do have another dining area on the other side so seating is in fact plenty! There is street parking right out front but if there's none, not to worry there's a lot of parking in the neighborhood so the walk over is relatively short. We love Miya and can't wait to try their other dishes!

I'll be back but I'd probably skip that one until they get in line. 4.4 Red Curry (Pumpkin). 3.9 Summer Rolls Appetizer 2.2 Pad Thai The pad thai was straight surprising - it was oily, but bland. Fried tofu was tough skinned. Worst: the egg component was overcooked - if you've every left an egg in the pan too long and got that sharp sulfuric tang - that. Smells bad. Tastes bad. So heinous because it's so avoidable. Red curry great flavor. Rice portion too small for volume of liquid - needed to be 1.5x, could easily be 2x.
