This is really a 3.5. Great spot for a nice lunch or dinner! I've been to a few locations and the ambiance at this location is really lovely, especially on the rooftop. The food is decent, maybe a little overpriced for what it is and given all of the fast casual places around here, but it would be good for a business or nicer lunch on a weekday or a date night. My favorite is the Santa Barbara chicken sandwich. The service is friendly and professional, but is pretty slow. I've probably been here 25+ times over the years and always had to wait at every stage of the process. Last time I went, we waited about 10 minutes just for someone to approach us and offer us water. Maybe just chronically understaffed? Important to note: this location does not take reservations and it gets pretty crowded on the weekends for brunch/lunch, so plan accordingly :)
We came here for a baby shower and reserved the mezzanine level. It's minimum of 12 people so if you have lesser you still have to pay for 12 so fyi. But the table and chairs looks like it can accommodate up to 25 people. We had a prefix menu where we were able to select ahead of time. We selected the Granville salad, Angel hair pasta, trout, steak, and it came with a brownie dessert. The food was really good, it has mashed potatoes side, broccolini, and roasted carrots. Service was excellent from the greetings of the hostess and our amazing waiter. Definitely recommend for a mini gathering or party they also allow you to bring your own decor for the table.
I came here with six of my cousins for a "Mom's dinner," so we were a party of seven. One of them suggested Granville, and it's definitely a spot you can't miss--it's on a corner with plenty of street parking, plus a lot behind the restaurant. We went on a Saturday night, so we expected a wait and ended up waiting just over an hour. Once seated, our drinks arrived quickly. I wasn't drinking alcohol but ordered a mocktail called Elixir (granny smith apple, cucumber, thyme and coriander shrub, lemon juice). It was not only beautifully presented but also delicious! The vibe inside is amazing. Even though it was packed, it wasn't overly loud, so we could easily chat at our table. Our server, Jose S., was fantastic--helpful with recommendations, attentive without being rushed, and made small talk that felt genuine. For my meal, I ordered the Bacon and Blue Burger: wagyu beef, sustainable cane duroc bacon, Point Reyes aged blue cheese, port wine reduction, horseradish aioli, caramelized onions, mushrooms, arugula, on a brioche bun, served with house potato chips. Every bite was incredible! If you like blue cheese and mushrooms, this is a must-try. The wagyu beef was so flavorful. Others in my party had the steak, a salad, and chicken--everything was just as tasty. We'll definitely be coming back!
My friends and I were looking for a rooftop bar nearby and came across this spot! Such a good find! They don't take reservations, but the wait wasn't bad at all. We went on a Saturday around 7pm. There was no wait for the downstairs area but since we wanted to be at the rooftop, we waited about 30 minutes for a table. The vibe is super cute and the service was really friendly. The drinks were all great, but the food was just okay. A few of us ordered the wagyu stroganoff and the meat was tender and flavorful, and our server gave us a heads up about the horseradish, which we really appreciated. The portions were huge, so we couldn't even finish. One of my friends ordered the spicy pasta and it was a bit disappointing. It had heat, but not much flavor. Even with a high spice tolerance, it tasted like straight crushed red pepper the whole time. Overall, definitely worth it for the ambiance and drinks!
Amazing restaurant with rooftop seating. Don't worry, there's an elevator. Our party of six got seated pretty quickly for a Sunday afternoon. The waiter was very attentive. We ordered appetizers and drinks , chatted a bit, then ordered dinner. The food came out together, not great timing but luckily there was room on the table. My black and blue burger was outstanding. The bacon, wish I had a pound of it. The flavor was like no other. I ordered my burger well and it was a bit undercooked for my taste but I didn't bother sending it back. Did I mention how delicious the bacon was. YUMMY. The fries, both white and sweet potato made a great side. Nice crisp on the outside. Would definitely recommend and return when in California again.
They have great deals for dineLA. The poke bowl is delicious and very light as well, with fruit and avocado tossed in. Get their Mac and cheese side, you won't be disappointed. Ambiance and aesthetic is more upscale casual. Service is also great as the servers come and check in on you very often
I've been curious about this place for awhile; their DineLA lunch menu finally brought me in. I don't come to the Lake Ave district all that often because parking is difficult, more so than Old Town I think. I quickly discovered Granville is a very popular place. It's located on the corner of Lake and Del Mar. Unlike some of the businesses on the east side of Lake that have entrances on Lake as well as from the rear parking lot, Granville only has a Lake Ave entrance. There are 5 Granville locations in LA. Some take reservations; Pasadena does not. The restaurant has 3 levels. Ground level has 2 dining rooms, one with a bar and communal table. There's a sidewalk dining area on Del Mar and 3 outdoor tables on Lake. The mezzanine has a dining nook that wasn't open when I was there, plus the restrooms and, I think, private dining room(s). The rooftop is a dining space and has its own bar. The DineLA menu included 3-courses and a beverage (non-alcoholic), with all items off the regular menu (and smaller portion sizes). My berry lemonade was quite nice. The Uptown Mac and Cheese was made uptown with the addition of chicken, peas and asparagus. Tasty with some crispy edges. The Poke Bowl was good, although the tuna was not seasoned with soy sauce or sesame oil or anything. There were soba noodles, mango, avocado and other ingredients, but many were overpowered by cilantro, an omnipotent herb. They were out of the cherry almond chip gelato I wanted, so I had the flourless chocolate cake, which came with vanilla cream and port cherries. It was fine. I was at the bar, and the bartenders were pretty attentive. I'd return, because the menu is pretty large.
This place is so cute ! We had dinner on the rooftop which was nice because the weather was great. Went around 5pm so we did not have to wait, we were able to be seated right away. Our server was super nice and gave great recommendations as we were first timers. Looking forward to come and try different items on the menu !
Ordered the pumpkin chai pancakes (& a side of egg whites) during brunch hours, they forgot the pancakes for an hour, brunch hours passed, and then they gave me a dry flourless dessert to make up for it on my first ever date. So unfortunately I can't say they have incredible service, but I've heard the brunch foods are good!
The pasadena location is great, especially the outdoor bar facing lake Ave, great place to pop in for a cocktail if you're in a stroll on a date night. Food is decent, modern, American fare, great customer service and ambiance. Can't go wrong here, everything from the product, bar tending, the service, all good. 4 shiny stars.
Went for dine la last weekend and was so glad I got to try this spot! It's a newer building with a chic vibe. There are no reservations so the wait can be long so time it wisely or look for seating in the bar area. I will say the dine la menu was awesome! Literally in times when everything is $$$ it was a great deal for good eats! I tried: - Uptown mac and cheese which was soo yummy and filling! It's similar to the one I make at home and was a real comfort food. Loved the veggies added. - Bacon & blue burger was really delicious! The flavors danced in my mouth and the burger was cooked to perfection! The chips that came with the burger were tasty, but a bit too salty for my taste - Flourless chocolate cake was another winner! Not too sweet or dense and a nice way to end the meal! - The meal also came with a berry lemonade, ice tea and craft soda option... definitely try the berry lemonade! So refreshing! All in all winner of a meal for dinela! Definitely going back!
It's my first time at Granville but it's a nice spot for date night or to hang out with friends. This location in Pasadena has a large shared parking lot in the back which is free for the first 90 minutes and is also free after 7 pm Mon to Sat. I assume it's free all day on Sunday. Unfortunately they don't take reservations. It's walk in only, so you may have to wait during busy times. I came Saturday night around 6 pm with a party of 4 and the wait was quoted at ~1 hour. Luckily the wait was a bit shorter and we got a text that our table was ready after 40 minutes. They have a good drink selection, including some non alcoholic options as well. I ordered the Elixir mocktail ($12) as the combination of incredients sounded interesting, but it was more sour than I expected and didn't have as much of an apple taste as I was expecting based on the description. It was still good though. I personally found the food portions to be on the small side. We ordered fries to share for the table, and while it was a good appy to munch on, split among 4 people it wasn't much. For my main, I got the Village burger ($19) with tomato bisque on the side (+$5). Again, the burger was on the small side, and I personally found it a bit bland as well. The tomato bisque was amazing though, and hands down was my favorite part of the meal. My other friends enjoyed their food as well. One friend ordered the spicy pasta with grilled chicken ($22 + $6 for chicken), which was probably the item with the biggest portion at the table. It was surprisingly spicy but had really good flavor, so he really enjoyed it. The other two ordered the pork chops and a spring salad and said their food was solid. After we finished eating, we sat around and chatted for a while longer over drinks. We never felt rushed and ended up being one of the last tables to leave.
Really enjoyed this restaurant. Sat at the bar due to limited seating. Bar tender super personable. Ordered gf turkey club, no sauce with sweet potato fries. They accidentally gave chips but ended up bringing fries. Hubby ordered cheeseburger with fries. Enjoyed all. Parked around corner in public lot free.

Came in on a Friday evening and sat at a high-top by the bar. We started with the pita and hummus, and the bread and butter with a side of sea salt. Honestly, I could've skipped the hummus, but the bread and butter was excellent perfectly toasted, soft butter, with a side of sea salt. For entrées, we ordered the vodka pasta and the spicy pasta. The vodka pasta is a must-order super flavorful and definitely the standout. The spicy pasta had a slight Cajun kick, which was good, but I personally preferred the vodka. For drinks, the pineapple margarita was really good. We ended with dessert: the Devil's Advocate flourless chocolate cake with vanilla ice cream and a strawberry shortcake both were delicious and a great way to finish the meal. Overall, it was a great experience. The entire staff was extremely friendly even the busser and food runner checked in to make sure we had everything we needed. Despite the restaurant being busy and fully packed, the service never slipped. Will definitely be back. read more
Had such a great time at Granville! It was my first time visiting I came for dinner and sat at the bar. My friend and I were really well taken care of; the bartenders were super friendly, took our order promptly, and checked in on us throughout the night. I ordered the pork chop, which was incredibly flavorful and delicious. The mashed potatoes were nice and creamy, and the spinach had an amazing lemon and garlic flavor so good. The ambiance is also really nice, with low lighting that makes it perfect for any occasion, plus TVs if you want to catch a game. read more

We stopped by for a drink on the rooftop bar area but apparently it was closed and downstairs was already last call. We stoped in around 8:40 on a Thursday night. I guess they close early. Not only us, there were three others that walked in as well. We did manage to get some drinks and a snack. But honestly we felt rushed throughout the whole experience. About 15 minutes after we sat, there was a group of about 8 that also walked in and they were also notify about last call. I think some got drinks while a few others that walked in afterwards weren't allowed. They said the same things we did regarding the hours. Even with holiday season, I don't think they have holiday hours. We always normally enjoy our visit each time but this experience, it was just whatever. Felt rushed but at least we were served so that was nice. I guess we should have checked the hours beforehand but thinking it was a big restaurant during the holidays. They would at least have holidays hours but oh well, we know now. read more
Had an incredible Sunday afternoon at Granville. No wait, gorgeous views, and the Espresso Martini was absolutely top-tier--perfectly balanced and crafted by a bartender who clearly knows his art and even tailored it to my taste. Service was attentive without being intrusive, and the rooftop setting elevated everything. The appetizers were delicious, the atmosphere was vibrant, and the company made it unforgettable. One of those experiences where everything just clicks. We'll definitely be back. read more

This restaurant is two floors for dining. There's the first floor and rooftop area. My wife and I did not wait because you have the option to sit and eat at the bar. You walk in and you're welcomed to a wood themed sitting area. The vibe of the place is chill and classy. I would recommend to go there and sit down to enjoy the full experience. Service was fast and the waiters and waitresses were efficient and friendly. We ordered a Cesar Salad, Hummus w/ House Made Bread, Beef Stroganoff Pasta and Chicken Plate. We also ordered drinks to start. The drinks were delicious and were full of flavor, honestly didn't taste like it had alcohol. I honestly forgot which flavor or drinks we had. The pasta was savory and noodles were cooked perfectly. The chicken itself was cooked perfectly and well seasoned. By far the star was actually the Cesar Salad. The Cesar's salad is prepared with leaf style lettuce and served perfectly tossed along with crumb croutons instead of the usual squares. It was the perfect bland of crispy and savory flavor. The house made bread with the hummus was also delicious. The hummus was good but I really enjoyed the bread. The bread was fluffy and salted to perfected and when mixed with the hummus makes the balance. I will definitely be returning to this place soon. read more

On the hunt for a great Old Fashioned..I think I've stumbled upon one of the best ones I've had. This Old Fashioned features a 'private single barrel elijah bourbon'. Though it was a really busy Saturday afternoon we were still attended to in a friendly and timely matter. I love the music however I do wish they played Pink Floyd on the rooftop! read more

Granville restaurant and bar at 270 S. Lake Ave. in Pasadena is one of our favorite places to go. The food never disappoints it's flavorful in the presentation is absolute and cooked to perfection. The concierge post at the front is always charming and wonderful. You are directed upstairs to the third floor, which is the terrace roof rooftop. The views are breathtaking. The temperature is always perfect with a nice California breeze. The menu has many items to choose from so there's a little something for everybody. Their handcrafted cocktails are out of this world. The vibe is really awesome. It's like almost your in a far away island or perhaps Key West or Palm Springs you feel like you're away from the city, which is a really good feeling when you live in Los Angeles California. The Granville is one of our staples that we go to in rotation. If you're looking for a really relaxing, great vibe atmosphere with good prices and exquisite food and drink check out Granville restaurant and bar At 270 S. Lake Ave. in Pasadena. Granville gets my five star elite Yelp review and my personal recommendation! Bon appétit read more

Been here a few times, and the rooftop is always a vibe especially on a sunny day with a glass of white wine. Great drink selection overall. The food was on point. The pasta was creamy, flavorful, and paired perfectly with the tender chicken. Service was attentive and friendly from start to finish. read more

Love the food here, always great service & great vibes. There's outdoor, indoor & rooftop seating. No reservations, first come first serve. There's street parking & Shopper's Lane parking lot in the back. Their DineLA menu is a really good deal, $25 for a drink, appetizer, main dish & dessert. I always love their berry lemonade (free refills), we enjoyed the butternut squash soup, garlic tomato bisque (comes with bread), classic cheeseburger (they have gluten free buns), spicy pasta, sweet potato fries & the cherry almond chip handcrafted gelato! Make sure you go early before the crowds, especially if you have a big group. read more
This is a favorite spot to walk to. The menu is always interesting, and I love the vegetarian protein options. I've dined inside and at the bar, but most recently we dined on the rooftop and it was just a lovely ambiance. There is a fireplace and low lighting adding a romantic vibe. I chose a salad with tempeh and a cocktail. The drink was strong, yet delicious and the salad was huge and so tasty that I didn't even have room for dessert. All of the staff is nice, and service excellent. read more
I've passed by this location several times, so I invited some neighbors to join me for Sunday brunch. Public parking is in back of the eatery. I checked in with the friendly receptionist who asked my preference of seating. Within 15 minutes we were seated at a booth with a view of the bar. I ordered the Thai ginger salad for starters and followed with the grass fed burger and chips entree and for dessert the cherry chocolate chip gelato. For my beverage I chose the berries lemonade. Everything was made to order and was tasty. If you prefer outdoor dining there's a patio on the third floor with a full bar and there's roof top views. In addition on the first floor your party can dine alone Lake Ave and additional seat on Del Mar Ave. Service by our waiter was friendly and the atmosphere is lovely with a nice vibe. Everybody was pleased with our experiene here and I would definitely would return here in a heartbeat. read more

First time visiting here. We were a large party for dinner and it was so delicious! We had the menu preset for our large party so all family style which was great. The waitress was fabulous handling our big party. Very impressed! I would come again! read more
I enjoy lunch, dinner, and drinks here, and I almost always order their Berry Patch Shortcake for dessert--it is delicious! Try dining on the rooftop and enjoy the view of the mountain skyline. The seat cushions could use a cleaning, which is why I removed a star. Service is always top notch. The staff are kind and accommodating. I came here for brunch recently. We shared the heavenly hotcakes with brûlée bananas and a side of pure cane bacon. They kept the coffee coming, so I was very satisfied. My friend mentioned that it was my birthday, and they brought out a complimentary vanilla gelato sundae for me. Restaurants don't have to do that, but small gestures like this show that they want their customers to have a great experience. Very much appreciated. read more
Place has a fine dining look to it. I came here a little late so I wasn't able to get rooftop seating. Next time I'll try. I got a salad which I normally don't get but it was very tasty. The beef was super tender and the dressing was on point. I hope to come back to try other dishes they have here. read more
If I were asked to describe this place in one word...it would be Quality. Everything I've had has been great. From the bread and butter to the Rainbow Trout. You can't go wrong it seems. The Waygu Stroganoff is good but very rich, would recommend to share that dish. Spicy pasta is great with steak. However, in my opinion the Rainbow Trout steals the show. Our server (Joe) was absolutely fantastic. Not only a genuine person but we wanted for nothing while when we were there. Vibe is business casual. Great for meetings, birthdays or just a casual Date. Music was a vibe all on its own. Absolutely worth trying, you will not be disappointed. read more

This is our spot! We just keep coming back! The food and drinks are absolutely amazing. The service is always great. The place itself is gorgeous! Great ambiance. This time we sat outside at the bar and loved every minute of it. This place never fails us! The skirt steak is to die for and the chicken buttercups are fire!!!! Literally all we go for. 10/10! read more
Found them via DineLA and been wanting to try this restaurant for awhile. They have a rooftop bar which is cool but decided to sit inside for my visit. We had to wait about 20-25 minutes on a Sunday and it got pretty crowded during the lunch hours. Inside is pretty nice, loved the decor and I felt it was pretty spacious. I opted for the dineLA $25 menu which was an absolute steal for the price. This is what I tried. Drinks - Tried the berry lemonade and iced tea. Basic drinks but since it came with they were pretty good. The iced tea came unsweetened so you have to add your own sugar. (4/5) Uptown Mac & Cheese - Phenomenal! I really enjoyed this mac. Flavors were on point, not overly cheesy and had a nice baked top. (5/5) Thai Ginger Salad - This salad was actually fire as well. Nice dressing and have Asian inspired toppings in it. Tasty. (4.5/5) Spicy Chicken Lunch Plate - Very simple dish, and overall its okay. Chicken was nice, cooked with some type of siracha tasting sauce. Mash potatoes was creamy and salad was good. Overall not bad. (4/5) Bacon & Blue Burger - Would recommend! They cooked it perfectly medium rare and the flavors went very well together. Blue cheese wasn't overpowering and the crispy bacon really hit. Liked the chips as well. (5/5) Flourless Chocolate Cake - Nice chocolate cake. What's not to love about it, its a delicious cake. (4.5/5) Cherry Almond Chip - This is a winner, flavors on point and was a good ending to the meal. (5/5) Overall service was on point, thanks Jorge! Food was good and the vibes were solid. Glad I got to try this spot out via dineLA! Parking - Parking in the back or street parking nearby. Could get pretty crowded on weekends. read more
Really cute place - found it on Yelp looking for a place near the Huntington that was convenient for our L.A. fam to meet us, and it was a hit. We had to wait a bit, but the bar area was very lively and they had the Rams game on. When we got seated, it was a nice roomy half booth half table. I forget our server's name, but she was very friendly and attentive without being overbearing or making us feel rushed. The food was terrific and there was something for everyone and they were willing to make compromises with the menu. We had the Ceaser salad the Ahi and the Stroganoff along with a grilled mushroom starter and everyone was happy. I cannot post this review without giving raves for their Gran Fashioned which everyone agreed was about the best old fashioned we'd ever had. They make it with Elijah Craig and a cherry vanilla bitters and it was truly outstanding. I would literally seek this place out next time I'm near Pasadena just to have a drink. read more
Came in for a belated birthday dinner and really liked this location (I've been to a few others and this one was my fav). It has three floors, including a rooftop and a really expansive bar that looks out to Lake St. For drinks, I had my favorite, the pineapple picante margarita, while my bf had the hazy IPA. For our entrees, I had the beef stroganoff which was really good comfort food on a chilly night. My boyfriend had the spicy chicken entree that came with mashed potatoes and broccolini. The bartender was our server and was friendly, helpful, and took really good care of us. He even surprised me with a little birthday sundae. We'll definitely be back. read more
