My favorite part is they constantly rotate the flavors so I always get to try new flavors. The best part there alcoholic. ;D Some people like shots, some people like beer but I truly, genuinely come for the AWESOME slushies. Also if you see the dole whip slushie get it.

I would like to start this review by saying that this place was absolutely PACKED but the staff did such a great job to make sure we were well attended and keep the energy up with the match going on....hats off to them! Our buddies were able to secure a spot in the outside patio area to view the game. They offer QR code menus where you can pay and order with a table number connected to your table. This makes ordering so much easier, especially for such busy days like World Cup game days. I ordered the Carne Asada tacos, so delicious and had a nice little smoky taste. My husband ordered buffalo wings, fish and chips, and onion rings; he loved everything. Our first time trying this place located in Pasadena and it definitely won't be our last, thank you again, staff for such an amazing experience!!!

Called the…read morerestaurant on the day of the reservation stating we were running 15 min behind and that our number has decreased by 2. Not an issue, got thanked for the update. It wasnt that busy at the time of our arrival. There were a lot of tables and the noise level was quiet. The host was nice and sat us not too long after we arrived. The table that we got sat at was extremely wobbly. My father-in-law noticed another table had napkins placed underneath to stabilize so he did the same to our table and it worked. Tara took our order and brought out the drinks. The food was 90% great! The 10% that fell short was a combination of things. 1) menu online and the physical menu said corn bread (which we were told no longer serves them). If its no longer available, update the menu because we were excited to try the corn bread. 2) a bbq place with no wet naps, that is really weird. However, they did bring me a stack of paper towels that were wet as if they were wet naps. 3) only 1 steak knife was provided in the platters. It was hard for a party of 6 to cut up meat with only 1 steak knife. 4) one of the sides came out cold, and hard. I bit into a macaroni and it felt raw because of how hard it was! I even dropped the macaroni on the plate and it rang! We brought it to the servers attention and we were able to get a fresh one free of charge. We loved the short ribs and the tomahawk steak! They were delicious. Baked potato as a side item was very large! During the whole time we were eating, no one came by to check on us, refills were not provided until after we were done eating. We never got one of the drinks that Tara wrote down and it showed up on the check. I was trying to get a staff members attention, and my hand was raised up, and there were hosts that saw my hand raised, but did nothing. There were other servers and runners that saw it too. Took a while for us to get any help. We eventually flagged down our server after what felt like 5 minutes. We brought the charge to our servers attention, and they corrected that too. Overall, the table service could have been a lot better, fix broken tables, and I suggest you bring your own wet naps or baby wipes because they dont supply any.

Perfect dive bar for just relaxing and getting away from the other chaotic Pasadena spots. They have a lower and upper level. I ordered their stout and was not disappointed.

It was a great place for some casual, mildly literary drinking on a Thursday night. The bar was in an alley, and I was happy to find free, easy street parking right outside the alley entrance. The alley was well lit enough that it didn't feel sketchy, though if I were inclined to beat someone up, this would probably be a convenient place to do it. The space was slightly below ground, down a flight of stairs from the alley. It felt like an Irish pub/sports bar with a tap list of California beers in addition to Coors Light and Guinness. Service was friendly and reasonably fast. I had a Made West Hazy IPA and a Pizza Port Amber, both of which I've had and enjoyed several times in several places over the years. I also ate some fries that were lying around, probably but not certainly by someone I at least sort of know. They weren't bad. I live kind of far from Pasadena and T. Boyle's isn't a destination bar, but I'd come back for another round or two after Vroman's. It's a comfortable spot with good draft beer, where you can relax and have some conversations.

There were games on TV, but also people actively playing interactive games like Flip Cup and other group games, which made the whole atmosphere feel really social and engaging. Honestly, it felt like the kind of place that encourages real connection and community, something that's needed now more than ever. The space is large enough where you can comfortably have conversations while still feeling the lively atmosphere around you. The back patio is also a huge plus, especially in Pasadena where the weather is beautiful most of the year. Service was attentive, the food and drinks were both great, and overall it just felt like a welcoming community spot. Huge shoutout as well to the owner, Crystal, who was amazing and incredibly hospitable. You can really feel the care and intention behind the space. It's the kind of venue the community can absolutely count on for gatherings, events, or just a genuinely good night out.

Food and service were horrible!…read more The server lacked professionalism. She was condescending to others employees and had somewhat of an attitude towards us, which I now interpret as she actually was annoyed with her coworkers incompetence. The food was even worse than the service. The wings were so hard they were inedible. Water cups were disposable plastic. The sauces are prepackaged ketchup and ranch. The garlic fries are covered in what appears to be a premade garlic Parmesan wing sauce. The burger had no seasoning and the egg was overcooked. No run to the yolk. Drinks were cool. Would never come back.

Apparently, I have a beer alter ego. But the real star of the show was the Truffle Mushroom Pizza!!!! This was my first time trying it and OMG... I wanted another one! The truffle gave the pizza that rich, earthy, savory, slightly garlicky flavor with that unmistakable "fancy forest" aroma. Combined with the mushrooms and melty cheese, it was absolutely YUMMMM! And a HUGE shoutout to Ashley, who took care of our party of 18!!!! That is no small task when you have 18 people ordering, talking, eating and probably changing their minds every five minutes. She provided excellent service and kept everything running smoothly. Overall, a fun HH celebration with good food, good drinks and great service!

Their British curry is so good. It has a choice of basmati rice, Fries or Mashed Potato. Get the mashed or the rice. They are both so great. We love anything they make in a puff pastry. Our favorite is the steak and guinness mushroom pie. It is steak prepared in a Guinness & mushroom gravy topped with the wonderful flakey puffed pastry, and a side. Have fun.

About an hour in, this dude comes inside with the biggest pit bull I've ever seen. It must have been bred with a horse or something, it weighs a solid 125+ pounds. Guy sits at the bar and the bartenders ogle the dog and usual. The dog lays down on the floor at the corner of the bar, on the way to the restrooms as the guy flirts with the bartenders and has his drink. 10min later this chick walking to the bathroom trips over this black dog lying on the floor and faceplants onto the floor! Lady pops up from embarrassment and dog owner grabs its chain before it has a chance to react. Fricking hilarious, but crisis averted! The guy moves to a table at the middle of the bar with the same dog at his feet. The moron bartenders don't bother to tell him to go outside or anything else. So 5 min later a guy walking buy steps on the dogs leg or tail and the thing jumps up and almost lunges at the guy and starts barking. It was frickin unbelievable how stupid he and the workers here were. Finally one of the guys in the bar says something to the bartender about the dog, and they just wave him off. Wow! Whoever owns this bar is going to get sued to no end based on the actions of the bartenders.
