Craft beer run
Miori I.

Hidden gem in Pasadena! Great craft beer selection. Never too busy. Decent prices. Friendly service. I loved all of the items I selected. Will be back very soon for more. Glad to have an additional craft beer location to add to the rotation. Just wishing there wasn't an Instagram now so it stayed a secret.

Of course I stopped by after reading about them in the news! Lots of fun perusing their craft beer selection. Packs and single cans are available in the refrigerated sections. If you shop at Ralphs for groceries you can use your phone number that's tied to your account to use fuel rewards at Shell when fueling up too.

They partner with another local brewery to brew their own beer Replicant, and sell a great selection of craft beer.

Come for the gas, stay for the craft beer selection & diverse Asian snack section. They partner with another local brewery to brew their own beer that they only (currently) sell at the station.

Great single beer selection. Also not featured in the photo, they have a beer cave w probably 6 packs and 12 packs?

Great craft beer selection. I recommend coming here if you want to grab some bottle logic or local brewery choices.

Beer selection

Came in for craft beer and I was not disappointed! They sell a ton of their beer by the single cans so you can get a wide variety of beers to try. If you are visiting and looking to try some local brews then this is your spot! Also had two employees ask if I needed any help with my selection.

Refueling my body
Franklin M.

When you need just need one item and you don't want to go into a huge supermarket. I was running five miles from Alhambra to Pasadena and I was thirsty on the 4th mile. I stopped here to quench my thirst and found that they carry cold Yerba Mate - that was refreshing.

Their air pumps just let air OUT of the tires. My husband even asked them if the pumps worked before he put money in.

I can't believe I haven't written a review yet. This is bar none my favorite restaurant in Los…read moreAngeles. Chef Daniel is a savant, Steph and staff are always on point with the service. When people ask me about the food, I always say that it's like you're walking into a 5-star chef's home, and he's making you whatever he thinks is good. You're getting a meal made with love, and the ingredients, seasonings, and careful care in preparation are proof of that. The vibes are homely. If you treat everyone with the same respect as if you were in their home, you'll feel right at home, with some of the best eating you'll experience in Los Angeles.

QUICK TAKE Get: Fish of the Day, Lamb, Moroccan-style Mushrooms Skip: Duck was our one miss Know: This is a good place for adventurous eaters who like sharing dishes and trying unexpected flavor combinations. Holy Saints does a nice job of making food feel creative without crossing over into "trying too hard." There are a lot of different influences running through the menu, and several dishes had us talking about the flavors and ingredients as much as the food itself. What we tried: Moroccan-style Mushrooms - A great example of what Holy Saints does well. Earthy, savory mushrooms with contrasting textures from the nuts, thinly sliced radish, herbs and crispy elements on top. There was a lot happening on the plate, but it all worked together. Definitely one to share. Fish of the Day - One of the highlights of the meal and something I would absolutely order again. The fish came over rice in a deeply flavored sauce with peppers, herbs and fresh vegetables. Colorful, comforting and much more interesting than the standard fish-and-vegetables preparation you see at a lot of restaurants. Lamb - Another winner. Rich, hearty and well seasoned, with the sauce pulling everything together. If you're visiting for the first time and like lamb, this would be high on my list. Duck - Good flavor, but it seemed like the duck sauce could have benefited from a little more time to rest before being sliced and served. We joked that we should have brought a bag, taken it home and eaten it as leftovers instead. Sometimes duck might just need a night to think about what it did. What I liked most about Holy Saints is that the food wasn't boring. The kitchen takes familiar ingredients and puts them together in ways you probably wouldn't think of yourself, which makes it a fun restaurant for ordering several things and sharing around the table.

Not many cheese places around. As a restaurant, the food isn't bad either - modern California…read morecontemporary fare. Very doable as a place to meet up with friends for a conversational brunch, or needed an unforgettable luncheon when your plans for steamed hams and aurora borealis at this time of year, at this time of day, in this part of the country, completely localized in your kitchen, is out of the question. But really, it's the cheese variety as the reason for me awarding this spot 5-stars. You can ask, yes, ask to try out before you buy. You don't have to be stuck with buyer's remorse. Try that cheese, all the different varieties that you can point at with your lovely gel nails: soft cheese, aged cheese, bleu cheese - the unique, the nutty, the funky, the kind that you want paired with that juicy fragrant bottle of Chambolle Musigny Premier Cru Les Amoureses. As dishes go, their Tom Kha scallop crudo works decently for a Thai-California cuisine fusion concept. For brunch, I quite like sticky toffee pancakes, even if they are super fattening weight-gainer 5000 grade of calories.

Variety ranges from an array of gourmet items to gifts, so if you're in a pinch to grab a hostess gift, you're guaranteed tasteful options. Upscale without being overtly pretentious. Agnes is good for both afternoon and dinner. I've dined inside for lunch and on the back patio for dinner because we had our dog with us. My friend that ordered wine was tantalized by our server's descriptions which were poetic word parings of sensual smells, colors and wine vocabulary, Peach, oak, pepper, tannins smooth finishes, buttery warm sunlight atmospheric etc... We had several appetizers and salads to share. See photos.

I was looking for a spot to celebrate on my birthday week. I am a fan of the speakeasy in Pasadena…read moreas well & this spot is known for this vibe. There is the school house parking lot in the back that is $1 for the first hour or you can park on the street. Once I arrived the host was outside a venue which looks like a store. Once my party arrived they allowed us to walk down a hallway. We entered an elevator which opened to a dark hallway. The hallway was aesthetic with a knight standing in the corner. A wooden door opens & inside is the wine cellar. You're walked to your table. I ordered the Mozart charcuterie board & a cab sav red wine to share. The ambiance is nice & pleasing. It can become a bit loud when more people arrive. There is a self playing piano as well. The server was kind & open to our questions concerning wine selections. Since it was my birthday I was served icecream, crème brûlée, & dessert wine. Our bill was placed in a smut book lol. Overall an aesthetic spot for a date , birthday, or girls night.

Absolutely horrendous customer service…read more Once we finished eating, we waited over 40 minutes for someone to even walk by our table so we could order dessert and get our check. I have no idea what happened to our server, but we were completely forgotten about. On top of that, the food took an extremely long time to come out, and when it finally arrived, it was very bland and underwhelming. The table next to us had ordered a brand-new charcuterie board and waited so long just to order their wine that they eventually left the restaurant without even touching the charcuterie board. Overall, both the food and the service were extremely disappointing. Waiting that long just to get someone's attention, receive our food, and eventually pay the bill is unacceptable. Definitely not an experience we'll be repeating.

My friend and I got a couple of beers and caught up on the outdoor patio. It was cool and overcast and pleasantly quiet.
