What People Are Saying About Green Street Tavern Inc
The Editor

In Short – Pasadena professionals and other neighborhood sophisticates--including the mayor of Pasadena and (ahem) Dr. Drew--gather for some serious wines and lots of conversation in this small, popular neighborhood spot just off the main drag of Colorado Boulevard. The tiny space sets a relaxed yet polished tone with recessed lighting casting a soft glow over soft leather chairs and banquettes in colors brown, cream and amber. The glass storefront offers entertaining views of Green Street and the two sidewalk deuces are perfect for summer nights lingering over a bottle of Napa cabernet.…

Hollywood quality; better price!
by Jamie91773 at Citysearch
I have traveled and experienced many fine dining luxuries, however, Green Street Tavern is one of the most humbling experiences I have ever had. The prices were immaculate (about $15-20 per entree) and the portion size was appropriate (not a tiny tasters plate; perfect size). The service was wonderful and the atmosphere was so upscale/cozy...? I really liked it. My fiance, who is impossible to excite, actually had positive feedback and insisted I take my mother and grandmother which I will be doing this weekend. A must try. I will make this place a new add-on to my weekly outings. =)
- Pros: Excellent food quality and service
- Cons: Lacking customers

My wife and I were looking for a new place to eat in Pasadena and came across the Green Street Tavern. The food was great and the service was exceptional. From the soup special to the divine deserts, we had an amazing time. We have found our new favorite place. :)

Total Disappointment
by ginaleo at Citysearch
After reading the rave reviews, I was excited to go here to celebrate my graduation, but was sorely disappointed. They took forever getting our entrees out! We had to get up 3 separate times to ask someone to check on our food because our waiter was clearly avoiding eye contact with our table. When they finally started bringing our food out, the portions were tiny and they were delayed in serving a few of us. By the time the rest of us finally got our dishes, the others had already finished with their meals! The worst part was that they weren't even apologetic. Our waiter literally seemed to just avoid us the rest of the night. I was so embarrassed to have brought my friends & family here. We all left hungry and with a bad taste in our mouths. Won't ever go back.
