We had our wedding reception here...we cannot RAVE enough about ALL the staff, the GREAT FOOD and professional environment...staff was on point, food flowed seamlessly and anything asked was more than handled. Weddings are NOT a 'do-over' situation, and we could not be more pleased. Would HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!! read more

They opened the doors for us an hour early and we were the only ones in there. Ordered a couple old fashions and a hot toddy all were great and quick. Ordered grilled balsamic salmon and the soup of the day and salad added some hummus and pita as well. Great little Mediterranean place. Thought the food would take a while since they hadn't even opened yet but it was out quick and hot. Salmon was delicious, the lentil soup was amazing our server suggested squeezing the lemon provided into the soup and she was right, epic! Big space lots of tables for larger groups and outdoor hooka area. Open for dinner only at the moment but said they are looking at adding brunch on the weekends. Just redecorated and ready for your next party! read more

Very nice place for a big work event. Last year we were 85 people and that was fantastic for the indoor banquet hall. Having the bar and dance floor right there was fantastic. The only thing we did not like was the food came out so slow for our party last year, my guests became cranky. So last year I give it a 4/5 This year we had a 60 person party and it was AMAZING. 5 out of 5 stars. I told the Arthur please have our appetizers and main course out by 7:30 and it was done! EXCELLENT. Everyone was soooo happy! We specifically requested Thiago, the best bartender and host for last year and this year. He was so helpful that night and so many of my guests said they wanted him for bartender because he's so good! The live music was a plus! All the entertainment has stepped up a notch this year. My guests were sooooo happy. Great place for a fancy event. Would recommend. read more

I came here for a date night with my boyfriend and it was my first time ever trying hookah. I really loved that we were able to eat and enjoy hookah at the same time--it made for a fun and relaxed experience. The dining experience itself felt lovely and elevated, and the outdoor area is beautifully set up and thoughtfully arranged, which really added to the atmosphere. The staff was friendly and service was decent overall. The food was excellent. I ordered the chicken kabob with tabouli and hummus, and everything was incredibly fresh and flavorful. Definitely a highlight of the night. The hookah was also enjoyable and a great first experience. That said, I did have one major issue. I ordered a Pinot Grigio and after my first sip, I noticed the glass was dirty. At the bottom of the glass there was a hard flake of dirt or residue that started crumbling apart as I swirled the drink, which was pretty gross. I asked for a new glass and they did replace it, but it left me unimpressed with the sanitary conditions. Overall, I loved the food, enjoyed the hookah, and appreciated the beautiful ambiance, but cleanliness--especially with glassware--needs improvement. read more

UPDATE...to answer the owners question...we were all there by 8:20. So not sure why you would think waiting an hour for appetizers is normal. It's 11:02 we still haven't gotten our food. Everyone around us got their food but us! We got here at 8pm and the table was empty. No meza until 9:30. So far I am not impressed, appetizers aren't so good, some are VERY salty! Grape leaves are not your typical grape leaves. I'm only giving the two stars for the entertainment. Service sucks! read more

Good food, great place to celebrate a birthday. Belly Dancing was also cool to watch.

I was very happy, success! Thank you! read more

I like the entertainment but the potion of the food was very little as a family style. We were 10 people and all of us were hungry when we left the restaurant. The main course of the food was good enough for 6 people. New management is not good at all. read more

Went on a Saturday night during the holidays. It was very crowded and lively. We wanted to sit outdoors for hookah, but there was no availability outside at first, so we got an indoor table instead. Our waiter was very friendly and professional and explained the set menu for the night. She walked us through all the options and helped us decide what to order for our group of seven. We enjoyed delicious mezza and shared plates. I ordered an Almaza drink and it was nice and chilled. After we finished eating, our waiter let us know that a table had opened up outside and she could accommodate us. We moved outdoors and finished the night with hookah, a great live singer, and what eventually turned into a dance party. The vibes were really up-beat. It gets very lively at night, especially on weekends. Overall, we had a really great time. I have been here a few times back in 2015 and 2016, and I remember it being just as fun and energetic. And the food is truly delicious. Absolutely authentic, high-quality Lebanese food. read more

Food was okay. The cold appetizers like Mutabal (Baba Ganoush), Yogurt, Tabuli Salad and Grape leaves were good. For hot appetizer the falafel was amazing. As for the rest it was just okay, including the main course. Th rice was plain with no flavor, filet mignon and chicken overcooked. Service was great for as busy as it is!!! Without asking, server would always refill waters. Quick to come when called over, and servers do not rush you out. This culture is to allow you to enjoy your time and not quick turnover. Ambiance was super hyped!! Everyone dancing, singing. The place was loud, a bit too loud for a restaurant. The DJ and Belly Danvers were so fun and great to see! Sat night belly dancers did not come out until 11pm. RESERVATIONS A MUST read more

The 3 stars are for the service. I am trying out the 'Timeleft' app, and this is the location it sent us to. The Hummus sampler was pretty good and so were the Pita chips but the Lamb Shank smelled so 'gamey' I couldn't eat it. BTW I love Lamb and will eat it often, but this time NOPE! There is indoor seating, but they sat us outside under the covered patio which can get breezy even with the tarp and heaters out there. My drink was delicious, though! read more

Wow! We planned our daughter's First Communion party here and it was the best decision! The food was absolutely delicious, all our guests commented on the quality and talked about returning to the restaurant on their own. The service was outstanding. From helping us to plan the party ahead of time to every single detail during the party was amazing. They exceeded my expectations and continued to check in and assist with all our needs throughout the event. The venue is beautiful inside and they played pleasant music for our party. For the quality of food, service, and ambiance you get, the pricing of an event at Eden Garden is very fair in my opinion. I will definitely plan future events at this location!! read more

This place has the worst food. Hummus is like tahin soup, the pita bread is weeks old,, entertainment really sucks. They take old food, spice it up and present it to consumers who get diarrhea / food poisoning. The place is understaffed so you don't really get the service you pay for and at the end you have no choice as they automatically charge a service fee. Stay away unless you like to be taken advantage of. I would put zero stars if I could. read more

Closing early because you don't have any customers? Never heard such thing from a restaurant.. We had made reservations for a surprise birthday party for 8 people for a Thursday night at 9:30pm since they close at midnight. Once our party got there, they were told that they are closing because they don't have any customers, they had closed the kitchen and everything. we even got a confirmation at 9:30pm. They should have called us to let us know in advance. They ruined the surprise birthday. Very poor management. Hire people that want to work or change your hours if you don't want to be open. read more

A Night to Remember at Eden Garden Bar and Grill! I recently celebrated my birthday at Eden Garden Bar and Grill in Pasadena, and it was truly an unforgettable experience! From start to finish, everything was absolutely perfect. The service was top-notch--friendly, attentive, and genuinely welcoming. The staff made sure our party felt special all night long. The entertainment was a huge highlight! We enjoyed an incredible lineup including a talented singer, a mesmerizing violinist, energetic belly dancers, and a lively DJ who had everyone dancing by the end of the night. It was such a fun and vibrant atmosphere. Now, let's talk about the food--spectacular doesn't even begin to cover it. Everything was so fresh, the portions were generous, and the menu had something for everyone. Whether you're a meat lover, vegetarian, or somewhere in between, you'll find a delicious option to enjoy. If you're looking for a place to celebrate a special occasion or just want a memorable night out, I highly recommend Eden Garden. It's the perfect blend of great food, entertainment, and hospitality. **Parking: Plenty of street parking. Valet $20. read more

We recently hosted an event at Eden Garden to celebrate a friend's 50th birthday and it was a huge success. This was our second time hosting at the restaurant and once again, they did not disappoint. Flawless service, great food, beautiful ambiance--and our guests left very happy. A special shoutout to Zeina and Mo. Zeina was our coordinator at the restaurant and was communicative, calm, and handled all our requests seamlessly. Mo and the rest of the staff was incredibly friendly and helpful. We will definitely be back to host again soon. Food: The filet mignon was excellent--easily the standout of the night. One small note: we ordered the kanafeh for dessert, which was a bit disappointing. Next time, I'd probably choose a different dessert unless it improves. Thank you again to Arthur, Zeina, Mo, and the entire team! read more

I visited Eden Garden on October 24th with high expectations, but I left disappointed. The restaurant was only half full, yet it took nearly 3 hours to receive our main course. When the food arrived, it was 11:00 pm. We were ready to leave. Who eats food at 11:00 pm. We were at the restaurant at 8:00 pm and people who came after us got served with main course. I politely mentioned it to our server, she said our food is coming. We asked her after 10 minutes she said the food is coming after 30 minutes. We decided to leave the restaurant. We had conversation with the restaurant manager. She didn't care. We spoke with the owner of the restaurant he didn't care either. They said they have set menu $75 for each person. We were two people. We told them we are going to pay for our sides only. They overcharged us for only sides and two drinks. They added 20% service charge. I was not going to pay service charge for bad service but they charged us anyways. Nor the manager or the owner offer anything for bad service. The only positive was the cozy atmosphere, but overall the poor service ruined the experience and my night. I hope the management addresses these issues. I will not go back to this place ever again. For now, I wouldn't recommend it. read more

I haven't been here since 2019. We were invited to a birthday party Saturday evening. As usual the food was amazing so was the entertainment. A belly dancer show and awesome DJ. We danced for hours. I don't remember the last time I danced this much. The food was delicious. The appetizers and the hot foods tasted amazing. Service was great The only bad part of the evening was the smoke all over the place. So many people smoking cigars, cigarettes and hookah. I understand it's a hookah lounge too and smoke is expected but the smoke of the cigars just bothered me so much. It's not the venues problem cause it is a smoking permitted venue ... it's my problem and I shouldn't come here if I want to avoid all that. Overall a great place for celebrating special events. But if you have issues with smoke this is not the place for you. read more

The guys and I went here as part of our monthly get together. One of them lives in the Glendale area and has come here frequently with his family, so this was a new experience for me and one of the others. I'm very impressed with all the different kind of hummus they had, and my chicken shawarma plate was really awesome. Everyone in our party enjoyed our food. The only qualms was a mixup on a drink refill near the end of our visit, but since we were already wrapping up for the night and getting ready to head out, The service itself is okay. instead of asking how our dinner was going, we had to flag down our server every time to ask for something. All in all though, it's a dope spot to chill, have dinner, and catch up with friends. Service aside, I'd definitely come back...the food is awesome. read more

I used to love this restaurant and have celebrated many special occasions here over the years. While the interior has been beautifully renovated and looks more upscale, everything else took a serious downturn. From the food quality to the service and especially the pricing, everything felt off. The first thing I asked our waitress (What she has to explain beforehand in fully) was if there had been any price changes. She mentioned that every package had been increased by $5, which was reasonable. But I would appreciate it if she had ALSO mentioned their new pricing for customers who bring their own drinks. We've always brought our own drinks before and were charged $20 per bottle, which we were fine with. This time, Not only were we charged triple, but they also charged me for a bottle that had not even been opened. The reason for the high charge was the size of the liquor, a 1.75 L . (That's what she said) I politely brought this up to our server and mentioned that we were here last January and paid $20 per bottle (same size) back then. She insisted that the pricing had always been the same for so long, and basically implied I was wrong. The way she dismissed my experience made me feel disrespected and disappointed. Honestly, I don't think I'll be returning. If you're planning to visit, especially if you've been here before and expect things to be the same, I highly recommend checking the pricing and policies ahead of time. It's not what it used to be. read more

My brother loves this restaurant, so I decided to try it out. Made reservations for a Friday nite. We chose to sit inside because it was chilly. Service- The staff were very nice, BUT...we were the only couple sitting inside and I think they forgot about us because we had to keep flagging them down. Apparently, there was a party going on outside. Ambiance- They have a DJ at 10; however, they were playing music during dinner, which made it difficult to have a conversation. Food- Appetizers: The fatayer spinach and fatayer cheese were disappointing. Lentil soup was amazing. My friend had the filet mignon, chicken & kefta kabobs and he said they were overcooked. His rice tasted like Uncle Ben's. My salad and falafel were good. Drinks: Their margaritas were very good! Maybe, this was an "off" night for them. read more

Great customer service, delicious Lebanese food with amazing atmosphere, this restaurant is highly recommended.

We celebrated my wife's birthday at this place. The music, dance and the place are OK, however, the food, especially the hot dishes were below average for us. This was our third time here but we did not like the quality of the food. Also, the hot dishes were served really late and our kids could not wait any longer. Absolutely will not be coming close to this place anymore. read more

Bought $80 worth of vegan food to-go and probably liked $40 of it, but do you go to this place just for the food? The vibe looked awesome and it hadn't even started. Some nights they have an Armenian DJ while other nights they have a belly dancer. Need to go back for the vibes, falafel and kibe. Happy Munchies, @aVeganAndHer read more

I love Eden Garden, their appetizers are delicious and they have entertainment on weekends. I love the singer Hratch Bogharian and the ambience he creates. People are like family, they know each other and they have regulars that go here every weekend. We celebrated my nieces birthday and they made sure she was happy, the servers were constantly checking on our table to make sure we weren't missing anything. We were there until midnight and the party was still going. The singer is very engaging and he brings a positive energy to the attendees. If you are in Pasadena you should try this restaurant. read more

Stumbled into here after a party because I was super hungry still. Was not expecting what I found, but was pleasantly surprised. It seems they mostly take reservations, especially on nights with music or a belly dancer, but we got lucky. Eden has two very large dining rooms. The one in the front was actually empty/closed when I went, but I think that was on purpose. The 2nd room is a covered courtyard with little areas for performances and two levels. It's really lovely and makes you feel like you're in Greece or somewhere in the Mediterranean. We were seated immediately and given a table on the 2nd level in the courtyard room. There was a man singing with a keyboardist/recorded music playing behind him. He sang a lot of Arabic songs and possibly Armenian, but I'm not sure. Definitely recognized one from when I used to belly dance. He was a good singer, too! There were mostly large parties, so the service was a bit slow. Our main courses took almost 30 minutes to come out, which is why I took off one star. But we had the calamari as well as the vegetarian platter, and the chicken basil pesto pasta. I forgot to take a photo of the entrees because we ended up just taking them to go because it got super late and we were tired. But the food was really good! Very large portions and very good prices! I'll definitely try to come back for an earlier dinner, especially when they have a belly dancer! read more

12 of us spent the new year's eve @ this restaurant. Food & atmosphere was just O.k. However, almost everyone in this enclosed restaurant, either smoked cigarette, cigar or used Hookah. You need oxygen max to stay alive. I have no idea how in today's world, they allow smoking in a confined room and making patrons who don't smoke suffer?! Needless to say, i certainly will not visit this restaurant again! Sorry for my honest opinion! read more

I took the whole family to this restaurant for my mom's 70th birthday & we had a horrible experience They brought a cold food to the table & when I asked the waiter to bring a fresh food to our table , he started to argue with me & was very rude about it Even they weren't that busy the service was horrible ( refilling the soft drinks, cleaning the table, clean plates never happened) & I got sick next day from their food. I highly recommend not going to this place, they ruined our special night read more
