Best Contemporary French Restaurants in Alhambra

Holidays at The Langham in Pasadena has everything. The ambiance was delightful with a mixture of jazz and Christmas music. The decorations and decor were delightful. The Ballroom buffet food was delicious. From the extensive choices of breakfast foods, and pastries, seafood, meat entrees, breads, cheese, wonderful desserts, even honey comb and ginger to top it off! Cocktails included for those who choose to indulge. The Langham thought of everything. The experience was fabulous and we hope to be able to attend it again next year!

The truffle ravioli appetizer is fantastic (it's not on the menu but almost always a special.)

Fantastic food, fantastic service, the portions were perfect.

Make sure you order the crispy potato! And jungle bird if you like sweet cocktails~

Everything we ordered was absolutely delicious! We started with the octopus and the caviar. While the octopus was decent, it was slightly overcooked and just okay. In our opinion, the Little Door Caviar was the standout starter—its flavor was far superior. For mains, the Branzino was perfection—crispy and flaky on the outside, tender and soft on the inside. The ribeye was equally fantastic, cooked beautifully and packed with flavor. We finished the meal with the crème brûlée, which was the perfect dessert—smooth, creamy, and with a perfectly caramelized top. The service was impeccable, making the evening truly special. We celebrated my friend’s birthday, and it was a memorable experience from start to finish. We’ll definitely be back!
