8oz Filet, Millionaires Potato, Cacio e pepe
Gabriel G.

Delicious food and dessert! Cacio de pepe pasta was robust as pasta should be. Filet mignon was cooked just right and the sauce that complimented it well. The baked potato was amazing and sophisticated, Im a big fan of it even if others can't handle that much flavor. We finished with the Souffle and Velvet Ganache that finished dinner with a smile. Definitely will come back for a delicious and relaxing dinner.

Okay so I've always walked by this place and wonder what it would be like to eat here. I decided to go celebrate for my birthday one day and we did not have a really great experience. First, the ambiance - they're playing spanish music. The seats are super worn out and torn. The service - Sorry, I try never to call our waiters by name but Sandra was just horrible. She was cold to us from the start. When we asked for something she would answer "sure....." as if we were bothering her. She basically ignored us the whole time we were there. We had to flag her down, and even then we had to ask another waiter for service. The only time she came immediately was to pick up the check. As we were leaving, she didn't even acknowledge us as we walked out. While the host and other waiters thanked us for coming. I know I sound so entitled but this experience just left such a bad taste in my mouth. The food was also not that great.. We all got pasta. Bolognese (2/5) - The pasta was not cooked all the way. It kind of tasted like it was just microwaved. The pasta was all stuck together. I really had to pry it apart. My plate was black and you can kind of see fingerprints and smudges all over it. Kind of dry but the meat was good. Gnocchi (4/5) - Nothing really special, just tasted like Gnocchi! But I enjoyed it. Ravioli Costine (4/5) - This one was also kind of good, it had a slight weird after taste but was still pretty good. Bucatini Pomodor Pomodoro (2/5) - This was just okay, Super dry. Focaccia Bread (5/5) - This was probably my favorite. The bread with olive oil and vinegar is so good!

Came here with coworkers for dinner after a work conference. We were seated promptly when we arrived for our reservation. The music wasn't too loud and we were thankful it was bright enough to see the menus because we are old and blind. The food was delightful and well-seasoned. There were no complaints from any of my colleagues which is great because they complained about everything!

My leftover lemon pic at a which will make an epic lunch tomorrow and our dessert to go.

Once again Mi Piace did not disappoint! We enjoyed the salmon, lemon piccatta and the gnocchi (which my daughter said was appropriately garlicky). We will be back again soon!

Italian margarita
Amalia R.

Had a great birthday lunch with my friends. I made a reservation on OpenTable and got seated right away. I ordered their Italian margarita and it was delicious! The bartender Mikel (spelling may be off) was friendly and brought our drinks out quickly. Our service was great and so was the food. Food came out quickly as well. Will definitely be back!

Chicken pacata
Joshua F.

Came here before a concert at the Rose Bowl. Was 15 minutes late but they sat us without any issue. Server came over to us quickly. We had a few different things including a chopped salad, chicken piccata and a fettuccine pasta with a meatball on the side. All were very delicious especially the chicken piccata. Everything on their menu looked very good. Some guy next to me guy a smoked old fashioned which smelled incredible. My only complaint would be the bathrooms that you have to walk up a ramp in a hot corner of a building to go get. The men's restroom ran out of soap. I had told one of the hostess and she said she'd get someone on it right away. I went back almost 15 minutes later and still no soap. A little concerned about the servers or cooks not washing their hands.

Free range chicken
Marshay D.

I love Mi piace!!! Been coming here since I was a young girl. Every time I come, the food is always fresh and hot, and they have really good authentic Italian food. They even have brunch and a massive menu you can choose from from pastas, salmon, and chicken. Today I ordered the free range organic chicken, and it was definitely tender and very moist. I will give it a 5/5. For my drinks, I ordered a Prosecco and they give you a decent size but you may have to order two lol. The Customer Service is exceptional they have good server name Rhonda who was amazing!!! and the owner is always very amicable and generous. This is my favorite Italian restaurant in Pasadena. I highly recommend you come here if you want some good Italian food and a good ambience. Very good for date night and celebrations. They have very good desserts here as well. I will continue to come back here!! Five stars all around for me! -Marshay D.

Lobster (lunch menu)
Tinamarie M.

Mi Piace is one of my favorite restaurants. I had not been here for lunch and thought it would be a nice treat to take a new teacher before school started. The restaurant is still as beautiful as ever. The hostess is friendly and the service was impeccable. The food, however; was not impressive. I ordered the poached lobster sandwich and it had no flavor. The potato chips were good; I love the salt and vinegar taste and think it really complimented the sandwich. The lobster was perfectly cooked and although small, it makes for a perfect lunch size meal. My friend ordered the chicken on focaccia and she said it was good although it looked a little dry to me. Overall; I was disappointed. I told her we'll have to try coming back for dinner and give them another chance.

Presentation again was excellent, again, the flavor wasn't great, almost as if it was made a week in advance, little gummy tasting
KT B.

My husband and I love trying restaurants. We're easygoing diners who appreciate good food and a great experience, whether it's a casual neighborhood spot or something more upscale. This was our first visit to Mi Piaci. The restaurant made a lovely first impression and was packed, clearly a popular spot. Unfortunately, our meal didn't quite live up to the atmosphere. My chicken piccata was cooked perfectly--tender and delicious--but buried under artichokes. I love artichokes, though a lighter hand would have let the chicken shine. The mashed potatoes arrived in an adorable little copper pot, but despite the beautiful presentation, they were so gummy that I couldn't enjoy them. My husband's béchamel lasagna also looked appealing, but the texture was gummy and the flavors fell flat. It tasted as though it had been prepared much earlier in the day. We initially ordered bruschetta, then switched to focaccia, expecting something fluffy and fresh. Instead, we received small triangles with a hard crust that were nothing memorable. The wine was a highlight. They have a good wine list, and we enjoyed our Super Tuscan enough to order a second glass. Overall, lovely atmosphere and presentation, perfectly cooked chicken, and enjoyable wine--but several disappointing dishes. For us, the meal was mediocre, and we're undecided about returning.

Mi Piace, we look on yelp and find where we are going to have our monthly staff luncheon and we picked here. We started off the classic pizza and the calamari were very fresh. I really enjoyed the pizza I will in New York recently and had a lot of good pizza. I had the short rib ravioli it was very good. The ravioli is made fresh. Another co- worker had the same thing. The food presentation was very good. A co worker ordered Insalada de Tios I just call it the salad with onion rings it was good as well. My other co worker ordered the pescatore if you like food like this go to Mi Piace and order it I don't eat it but watching her eat and almost made me change my mind. We tried serveral deserts. We shared three deserts Creme Brulee, Creme Brulee chesecake and Lemon Meringue Tart. Lemon Meringue Tart was good give is 7-10. Creme Brulee Cheesecake give 9-10 because unique not a lot of people serve it. Creme Brulee give it 7-10. Rhonda, our waitress, was excellent and kind. The service was very good and I will definitely return. The restrooms were not very clean, but I don't think they're responsible for that.

Fettuccine Alfredo
Charles C.

We celebrated my mom's birthday at Mi Piace and it was wonderful. The food was delicious, and every dish looked beautiful when it came to the table. We even got to meet the owner, Armen, who came by to see how we were doing, which was a really nice touch. Our server, Frank, was excellent. He took great care of us and made the whole evening feel special. The atmosphere was perfect for a family celebration. We'll definitely be back!

Sunday Brunch
Gee B.

Sunday Brunch is great. Lemon Ricotta pancakes, Brown Butter Waffle, and NY Steak! Yummy. I've been for dinner but will definitely have Mi Piace as a brunch option. Service is exceptional !

On of my Pasadena favorites that never disappoints!…read more My husband and I made an easy reservation at Magnolia House for a relaxing Sunday brunch after a night of Halloween festivities. Having dined here before, I already knew we were in good hands. From the moment we arrived, the hostess recognized that we were celebrating our anniversary and made us feel welcome. We were seated inside the bungalow's main dining area, where we settled in with water and our drink orders. My espresso martini was smooth, flavorful, and a great way to start brunch. For our meals, we ordered Eggs Benedict and Huevos Rancheros, both of which made for a wonderful brunch. With fresh vegetables and thick-cut bacon, we were both very happy with our selections. Our server, Shadow, was attentive and made sure we were well taken care of throughout the meal. Magnolia House continues to deliver on everything I enjoy about a neighborhood restaurant: charming surroundings, well-prepared food and drinks, and genuinely friendly service. A wonderful way to spend a Sunday morning, and a place we'll happily continue returning to!

We asked for medium but it was dry and completely gray inside. I had higher hopes for this one. The Basic breakfast plate was your typical eggs, bacon, potatoes and toast combo. It was good but the best item was the sourdough toast! Crunchy on the outside and soft/chewy on the inside. We also got a side of the Belgian fries which was good too. Loved the decor. There's indoor and patio seating along with a cozy bar area. Servers were great and checked in on us frequently throughout our meal. There's paid street parking on Lake Avenue but I recommend parking for free at the Macy's and Erewhon parking structure across the street.

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.

I found Moxie Izakaya on Instagram and had to check it out. We entered into this arcade-like setting with small claw machines, a cotton candy maker, darts, an open bar, a dining area with televisions and an open karaoke mix, and a separate hall for reserved karaoke rooms! The karaoke rooms are set up intimately with two tables, black leather couches, projected screens with a karaoke device, speakers, and a little disco ball at the top. If you're wondering about food, there are a TON of incredible options choose from !

I rounded up to 4 as I think it's a solid location and similar to its competition if you're familiar with the KTV scene in SGV and that's what I'm using as comparison. Overall, it's a standard Chinese based karaoke place and system. It utilizes the popular KTV software/system most Chinese based karaoke places use, which is a touch screen system that interfaces in Chinese or English. It's not the most robust system as users who aren't Chinese or not familiar with how the system works will struggle initially with searching, and trying to search outside of Chinese is clunky, but it has a very large song catalogue, though in some cases you need to figure out how to find those songs and some popular songs you would think should show up aren't in their system yet an obscure one from the same artist is. Song library has a decent amount English songs from various decades. Most big pop songs are available. Korean and Japanese songs are mixed as some popular songs are present while some are not yet obscure songs will be present, or they use a live concert version. The name formatting and titling are inconsistent and in some cases, you need to know the Chinese/Hanja/Kanji or the romanization/English translation of the title. Chinese songs are roughly what you would expect, plentiful, though there are inconsistencies as well. Quality of the song and music video varies. I feel the system was just designed for mainland China use with some foreign songs, but they Frankenstein'd a bunch of other song banks and systems to make it an international product. The audio system is alright. Speakers and mic quality are average, not bad, not amazing. Like any system, be smart with feedback. Audio configuration can be done through the touch screen system. Mic configuration, I can't remember if it was locked or not. My experience was, it wasn't bad but I didn't feel as confident and had to adapt to the mic and presets. 3.5/5 for the audio, song bank, and system interface Service was alright, they came pretty fast if you called. We were greeted at the front desk and were checked on a few times in the beginning to ensure we got everything before getting into the rhythm of things. Solid 4.5 stars for my night's experience. Interior is clean and nice enough. Lobby and shared space is nice and the rooms seemed alright. Nothing that interesting or extra amenities that added a big wow factor to me. Solid 4 stars for interior. I've had drinks here and outside of the alcohol, some of the other drinks were a bit disappointing. I think I had the grapefruit with honey and something else. It essentially tasted like hot water, a little honey, and the syrup from those jam/fruit preserve/make your own drink at home jars you can buy at a chinese supermarket. Relatively weak flavor and did not feel worth it. Drink game needs to step up if you're going to charge those prices. You got canned and bottled stuff if you want to play it safe but it doesn't feel hard to have some good house specialties and in house made beverages. 3/5 Price wise, drinks both alcohol and non alcohol are in the range of what you expect at a karaoke place. Room rates are around the average. I didn't do the happy hour, but it follows many other places in the one flat rate unlimited singing + food/beverage credits which is really worth it if you can do those times. Outside happy hour, relatively fair and average. If you don't go as a group, it will feel much more expensive. Price is 3.5/5 as it's average priced for the most part. it's a 4/5 or 5/5 if you only do happy hour and how you utilize it. All in all, solid 3.5 stars, inching to solid 4 stars. Minor tweaks would up the score very easily. If the drinks were better, they had other amenities or specials, other types of pricing outside happy hour, better refinement on the audio/mic, or better setup and library for their ktv system rather than using the generic stock one every chinese ktv place uses would push it to a 4 or 5. I want to give this place a 5 since it's somewhat close by to me, has an easily accessible space, and tries to do unique deals/specials with the happy hour. The first time I came here (but didn't stay) it felt really nice in potential after a few bad past experiences at other places, but the last time I came, it felt average or slightly above average. They seem to be changing up what food they're doing and that just screams to me they're just throwing whatever at the wall and seeing what stick vs having their identity and specialty. I think specializing in some dishes and drinks and keeping the menu more limited ensures better quality and flavor. But that's just my preference. I know people who like having lots of selection and prefer value/quantity.

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.

We ordered the honey garlic chicken, seafood pancake, tteokbokki, and corn cheese. For 4 people this was a good amount of food. First off the honey garlic chicken was AMAZING. the chicken was super juicy and crispy and the honey made the fried skin taste like a biscuit. It was actually insane, I would come back here just for the chicken, 10/10. The seafood pancake was also amazing. It was crispy on the outside and chewy on the inside. It had lots of shrimp and squid, and dipped in the sauce it was delicious, 10/10. I'd say both the corn cheese and tteokbokki were not super worth it. The tteokbokki was relatively small, given the price. And it was quite spicy, a little too spicy for me. The corn cheese tasted like butane gas, or how a birthday candle smells, so it was just alright. Both were a 5/10. I would definitely come back again to try more food!

She absolutely loved it, too! Always a great experience, and definitely a place I'll continue coming back to. Highly recommend!

10/30/26* Went with…read moremy girlfriend and son to celebrate a friends birthday they were hosting there, also note it was OUR first time at this establishment but friends have ate here prior. We arrive at 6:30 it's already packed so we put the party down for a wait time and proceed to wait. Issue at hand: we were told by the host stand it would be about 30-40 min wait for seating for the size of our party.....so tell me why we didn't get sat until 2 hours later at 8:30? I'll tell you why the manager (male wearing a pink shirt) has no experience as a manager clearly Before this sounds like a hate rant I myself work at a pretty face paced well known restaurant, I understand good days and bad days for restaurants but this manager at GRANVILLE clearly has no control or authority over how the turnover of the restaurant looks. Not only myself but several members of the party went up multiple times to ask why the table they were trying to seat us at wasn't being prompted to leave. That same table was dining when my family arrived at 6:30 and most likely finished eating at some point WAY before us getting seated. I physically watched this specific manager who oversees the entire establishment walk upstairs, stare at the party who is just chatting at this point and chose to walk away and do nothing, it took an entirely different set of employees to take initiative and get our table ready by letting the sitting party know there were other customers trying to use the table. If I have to make my point crystal clear, If as a manager, yet alone overseeing business manager, can't have the right speaking skills to plainly let a party know that their time is up what's the point of them running the operation. It just proved to me that money for one party was worth them rotating and seating more customers for them to make more profit. I'll end it with the food being fairly decent and flavorful, but with the gentrified prices they're charging I would hope that at the least. My personal opinion I'm not going to be telling my friends or encouraging anyone to stop here unless they can get the right business mindset together
