- CCatherineOrange County •3 reviews5.0Dined 1 day ago10 out of 10 experience. Highly recommend! We enjoyed an absolutely lovely setting on the terrace with attentive, friendly service. Delicious and beautifully prepared sandwiches and exquisite desserts! We enjoyed the upgraded Huntington Tea which included Prosecco, a lobster roll and a sumptuous little chocolate, cherry dessert. Everything came together beautifully for an absolutely lovely experience. We will definitely return.More infoThe Huntington's Rose Garden Tea RoomPrice: Very Expensive• Afternoon Tea• South Pasadena•4.7
- SStephanieLos Angeles •2 reviews5.0Dined 1 day agoThe hostess had an attitude and tried to seat us at a table by the kitchen although the reservation had been made well in advance. We asked the wait staff to please re-seat us which they happily did. I think they noticed the hostess’ attitude and tried to make things right. The wait staff was superb and could not have been nicer. All in all, I would give the food and service a “10” out of “10” despite the hostess’ attitude. Maybe she should be I. The back washing dishes instead of greeting diners.More infoCelestinoPrice: Expensive• Italian• Pasadena•4.6

Known as a mission city, San Gabriel is an artistic town where people love creativity and innovation. The food is a part of the entire scene with American fusion leading the way. Duck hash is made from duck confit, apricots, and chile jam and served at many of the American restaurants near the Cordova-style mission entrance. Mediterranean foods are a welcome addition to the area's diverse cuisine options with choices like spaghetti squash casserole with caramelized onions, organic tomatoes, zucchini and freshly made mozzarella cheese. Italian is another favorite, featured at fine dining establishments where you can get authentic handmade pasta and other provincial dishes.
