Hopeless Romantix. Whose idea was this? Snug right between an Umami Burger and interior design firm, both of which manage to be more stimulating. Though the hearty selection of vibrators kept the boyfriend busy for a moment, it's absolutely not a one-stop-shop for couples or gay men. Yes, the limited selection for this adult store chain is simply offensive. But alas, it is Old Town Pasadena after all..... read more

This place ain't great, but the staff is friendly and all I come here ever for is lube and to laugh. (Not necessarily in that order.) This store used to be better when the video/DVD part of it was the main focus. Ownership changed and we have this new place. Granted there has been a porn shoppe here in this location since the late 80s. This shop is definitely geared more toward women, not that I care, but a woman complaining about this place is like the pope complaining about not having enough religion or a dictator saying he doesn't have enough power. I mean for real, I know women are SUPER DEMANDING when it comes to all things related to sex, but how many dildos you need? Need more anal bead selection? This is one of the larger (haha, no pun intended) selection of vibrators and dildos you see around at these places. You'll see couples in here a lot. It adds a certain element of humor to the place since I'm usually half intoxicated when I come here. To any woman complaining about this place I would say, "STFU". Deal with it. All shops have their sketchy people roaming in and out. What? You don't think vagrants don't want to be loved? The place where they lack though is in the variety of lube they have and the condom selection -which I shouldn't really care about since I don't ever buy condoms. Still though, you want your local porn shop to be varied and well rounded. If you just need to stroke it and want less friction, they got your needs covered here. For a quick laugh in Olde Town, this might be the place. If you have real purchasing needs, go somewhere else. read more

I had the craziest fun time here with my friend's boyfriend for a "for kicks adventure." There was a funny awkward moment where the lady asked for ID before I was about to buy my, uh stuff, and I was surprised she had to see my ID. Me: "Wait, you have to be 18 to buy anything?" Her: *exasperated-sounding* "You're not 18??" Me: "Oh, wait I am...I'm 19, actually." *gets out ID* Her: "You have to be 18 to even enter the store. I just knew you were over 18 by how you were walking around here." *goes into long conversation about how high schoolers act in a sex shop and something about me still being young and having a lot to learn or something.* Anyway, interesting employees here. Don't be afraid to ask them questions, just don't push it and they probably won't embarrass you haha. If nothing else, it's worth a fun peek with some friends in Old Town at night. read more

Nice selection of lubes and massage oils. Good mix of higher end toys and budget friendly toys. They're pretty vanilla with the fetish gear and don't have very much lingerie. As for the customer service, they stayed behind the counter and only offered help when we were looking at stuff at the counter. I asked about some of the higher end toys that they have enclosed, but the testers were dead. Not bad, not amazing. Would return. read more

An excellent place to visit after having a nice dinner in town, especially being on the middle of Colorado Blvd it's easy to find, excellent customer service, a huge variety or items. read more

Is it cheezy that I'm giving the place 5 stars? Maybe. But this place does very well what it sets out to do. There's a myriad of reasons why someone would come in here, and I'm sure I could crack a few jokes yapping about it. The reality is that the place isn't gross, the staff really cares, and the selection is great. That IS what you're looking for in any establishment. Price is a little more than some are comfortable with, but it takes money to keep this place the way it is. It's legit read more

When date night becomes super random and you end up laughing & giggling the night away... Me and my friend went in, just to go in. I thought the place was smaller than the other adult shops I've been to. Not a lot of variety with what they were selling. All I saw was lingerie, sex calendars, a little area for condoms and then a lot of vibrators (lol). From someone's review, apparently there's a 2nd floor. We didn't see the stairs or else we would have explored even more... (yeah, I'm still giggling.) read more

Me and my boyfriend are in this area of Pasadena a lot so sometimes we'll walk in and browse. Overall, I think the place is okay. The sales associates greet us when we walk in, but then leave you alone, which I prefer when I shop. Up front, they usually have some lingerie on sale. Once in a while, I'll see a corset that looks pretty cute, but most of them aren't really my style. The store has quite a good variety of toys and lubes, and they have a section for fetish gear. There's even a clearance wall in the very back of the store. (Although the clearance price for some of the items can still be a little high.) There's also a wall for those who like their dildos with copious amounts of girth, if that's your thing :P Downstairs is an entire room of nothing but DVDs that cater to people of all kinds of different tastes so take a look. Only thing I've ever bought from here is some water-based strawberry lube which works quite well for me and my partner. But I'll definitely buy something else later down the line if I'm in the right mood and have the extra money. read more

Great service! Hailee answered all of our questions and gave us great advice for products! Aubrey checked us out quickly and sent us on our way. Thank you! read more

Friendly customer service. Came in here years ago for some lingere. Private dressing rooms. They have decent prices. Dvds downstairs. Don't be scared! Come in hahaha read more

Haillee was a great help. I loved her great customer service she answered my questions and did not make me feel uncomfortable at all.

I purchased a toy here for $80. As soon as I took it out of the box, a pungent odor of gasoline wafted out of the box. The item reeks of chemical smells so badly. I washed the item 3 times using toy cleaner, and I let it air out for a week. The smell didn't get any better at all. I called the store to ask what their refund/exchange policy is, and the guy told me that I could do that within one week of buying the product. So I went back to the store, explained the situation that I've never been able to use the toy because it smells so badly. He said he can't do anything to help me, no refunds, not even an exchange for other items from the store, since there's nothing "structurally defective" about the item. I asked him why the fact that it's not usable because of the smell doesn't count as "structurally defective?" And he basically said tough shit and told me to try my luck luck contacting the toy brand company directly. What a joke of a business this place is! Never shop here unless you don't mind being ripped off. read more

I have not been to a "sex shop" since the early 1980s and I visited Romantix this morning in search of some adult toys to spice up the love life I have with my wonderful wife of 25 years. Back in the "old days" the atmosphere in these shops was kind of seedy- you kind of just wanted to get in and out quickly,(hoping no one saw you) and you did not really want to get to know the staff member working behind the counter. This was definitely NOT the case with Romantix! Staff member Victor immediately greeted me and made me feel very welcome. He answered my (many) questions and provided expert guidance to help me select my purchases. I would describe this store as the SUPER STORE for all things sexy and adult oriented. The store is very tastefully decorated. My overall experience was really fun, enjoyable, and (especially) educational. Thank you Victor and Romantix!! I'm sure I'll be back many times and hoping my wife will accompany me. read more

The best and friendly staff which is always ready to help you find the best purchases for a great time!! Hallie is one the most knowledgeable people in this space. My wife and I couldn't live without her help! read more

Wendy bird was A MAH ZING ;). Five stars. All the employees were very helpful. The store has a huge variety of things from lubes to DVDs. Best sex store I been to in a long time. I also love their selection anal plugs. read more

I came into this store a little intimidated/nervous BUT the manager (I believe her name was Shadonna) really helped making things comfortable. Not only that but she has a lot of knowledge with the items here. I would definitely come back here again ! read more

Good selection, friendly staff that can recommend items. Convenient location close to lots of shopping and restaurants.

have all the things u need， full of staffs to increase the fun in your life。 nice place。

I came here for the 1st time this past week and loved it. The lovely employee, Britney, was a great help at showing me around and answering all my questions. I've purchased a few accessories online from other places, but after my shopping experience at the Romantix I'll be doing my shopping in person here from now on. I'll be coming back to shop again soon. Thanks again, Britney! read more

This place is great! Brittney was super informative and helpful. Came here for some fun and flirty pieces for my upcoming vacation.

Amy gave my boyfriend and I terrible service. After using the dressing room twice and putting the clothes back each time, Amy proceeded to demand that I get all the clothes I tried on and give them to her because she needed to re attach the underwear. I wouldn't have a problem if she asked in a nice manner, BUT to demand of a potential customer ??? Then she got angry/rude with me because I couldn't find one of the articles of clothing that she requested I find. read more

This was my first time ever going into a shop like this and I needed to get a bachelorette gift and I was clueless, the Manager Shadonna completely took me under her wing and helped me get the perfect gift. I would definitely return but next time I'll get something for myself! Thank you Shadonna you're awesome!! read more

I bought some shoes here a couple days ago and ended up taking home one shoe new and the other one looked used which I didn't notice until the next day. So I call them to see about doing an exchange and the person who answered the phone who's name is Jenna was being rude about it saying we don't do exchanges. Which was really getting me irritated because THEY were at fault for selling a faulty pair of shoes. I was then told to call when the manager came in. His name was victor and seemed to be giving me the same trouble about no exchanges but after telling him they should not have sold a shoe in this condition he said I could come in to have it inspected in which he too noticed the shoe was in no condition to be sold, so he offered the exchange. They only carry one pair of a size per shoe style so I couldn't even exchange the shoes for the same ones. The other styles they had I didn't want so I ended up being stuck with them. Two days later I call to see if I could exchange the shoes for something else (didn't think of it till then) in the same price range as the shoes and victor told me that it was a one time offer to exchange them.. honestly that's ridiculous. I was offered a %15 discount on my next purchase but because of this I don't even think I'd want to give this place my money again. read more

Pleasant experience. Amy and Maddy were very helpful and answered all my questions. Thanks

Le Crappy Sex Shoppe! This isn't your ordinary sex shop for it has nothing sexy about it. They have a great selection of gag gifts, vibrators and an interesting variety of blow up dolls but when it comes to the videos you might as well make a trip to your local hole in the wall XXX store since they'll have a less scary assortment. Now onto the scary videos. We only saw a few new DVD's. Everything else looks like they were bought from your parents secret porno stash from 30 years ago. They made porn that long ago? Oh believe me darling those hair cuts on the covers don't lie and I don't mean THOSE hair cuts. They're separated into sections. You have your S&M, gay and lesbian to barely legal, and just some weird shit I can't even post on here. Let's just say Little Orphan Tranny is a funny title. I agree it's defiantly the "old, single and can't get laid store." It's all we saw during our trip. We were the only group laughing and pointing at the videos... and the lonely guys who buy these too! read more

I'm 19, so it was just a little weird for me to walk in alone, but then I thought whatever. Then the lady was and helped me look and informed/educated me on lube. She was very cool and casual about it and the interaction want weird at all. I just ended up buying my first vibrator. The store layout was convenient and easy to observe/ navigate. read more

It's funny to think that Old Town Pasadena would have such a store on its beautiful boulevard. Regardless of location, this spot has almost everything for your erotic needs and wants. I'm digging what they have to offer and so does my lady. read more

Aubrey was really helpful and there is tons of great stuff here. Really close to our house, kept driving to Glendale all the time before

Fun place! Came in with a friend to purchase a wedding gift for our girl that's getting married over the weekend. Great selection lots of fun things! Service...not so great. read more

I got the pleasure of being assisted by the Store Manager who made my first experience in an adult store one to never forget. She made something I thought to be so weird, so normal. Apparently, there's a whole world of kinky fetishes out there. She was very knowledgeable, kind, and witty. She's definitely a keeper! read more

I came in here with a couple of friends and wasn't greeted at all. But they have a wide range of selection. They also have a variety of porn but I was looking at the toys more :P read more

gotta luv this store... convenient location, clean and organize, friendly and informative staff... been a regular here... hey, what can we say... gotta keep the relationship exciting and fun! was looking for a specific item awhile back... to our surprise, they now have it... ;p read more

Amy's customer service last night was wonderful. Was debating on what exactly to buy and she made it easy to choose. She made it comfortable to talk to and to ask any type of questions I had. Definitely will be visiting again! Over all, my experience in Romantix was better than I expected. read more

The guy that worked here was a total A. HOLE! Not helpful at all, he had a big attitude problem. Very unprofessional. This place is way overpriced compared to other Stores. but I guess they charge whatever they want since there the only Sex Shop in the area. I rather travel a little bit further and go to Romantic Obsession in LA 90043. read more

The staff is friendly but this place isn't what you expect. It a mash-up of a Hollywood Gift Shop and an Adult Video Store. If you are a guy you are better off going somewhere else. It's pretty tame. read more

Maybe I'm an idealist, but when I go to a sex store, I expect variety in all that they have to offer. Well... This place had variety in lube and "prosthetics", neither of which I was looking for. This place has a dismal selection of condoms, I didn't see that many videos, and the bondage selection looked like a little too fuzzy and friendly to me. However, the sales lady was helpful and the place was well lit. I agree with the advice to hit up Pleasure Chest instead. read more

Nothing like a little sexual discrimination to turn you off when it comes to your adult shopping I went in with the intention of dropping about a hundred maybe a hundred plus dollars on a toy for a girlfriend. I'm the only man surrounded by women that have bags bigger than mine but for some reason I had to turn mine in because apparently if you have a penis you're a potential Thief thanks but no thanks I'll shop somewhere else read more

I just left this place...its really clean and no one rides your back as soon as you walk in there...I was like a kid in a candy store....so much to choose from...omg I will be going back there... read more
