After dining at Sugarfish, I discovered that it's located inside The Commons, a charming and…read morebeautifully designed shopping area. The atmosphere is fantastic, with outdoor seating where you can enjoy a coffee, get some work done, or just hang out and relax. A unique feature of the courtyard is the two red telephone booths, which add a fun decorative touch and make the space feel even more inviting. After our meal, I was able to shop at Williams-Sonoma, which is conveniently located here, along with other great businesses and restaurants, including: * FACILE * SOULCYCLE * Drybar * Green Street Restaurant * Lemonade Restaurant * Philz Coffee * UOVO * Mercado * Dan Modern Chinese * SUGARFISH * The Counter * TravelStore Whether you're grabbing a bite to eat, shopping, or just looking for a cozy spot to relax, The Commons is a great place to visit. Recommend you checking this place out when you're in Pasadena!

What caught my eye were the two red phone booths (feels like you're in London) but it had no phones inside, but it's okay! There is still a Christmas tree in the middle of all the restaurants. The places to eat here are the following: * Philz Coffee - my fave coffee shop in Pasadena! * Dan Modern Chinese * Lemonade * Mercado (Mexican cuisine) * Sugarfish by Sushi Nozawa * The Counter * Green Street Restaurant * Uovo (Italian cuisine) Some of the restaurants I had tried in other locations except for Dan Modern Chinese, Mercado, Green Street Italian and Uovo. Looking forward to try these! For retail and services, there's the Dry Bar, Soulcycle, Facile Skin Care and Williams Sonoma. It's a small complex and not too crowded. I would take family and friends here to eat and relax.

We also visited Pet Food Express where we were able to pet a cute Corgi and visited the Macy nearby. I parked in the parking lot behind Nick's and depending when you go, you might have to pay or it will be free. Since I parked my car after 7pm on a Wednesday, it's free. I wasn't sure at first and tried paying at the parking machine and also through the mobile app but it wasn't working. It wasn't until I walked inside Pet Food Express and the worker let me know they stop enforcing the parking time limit after 5pm on weekdays.

I didn't even know there was a South Lake Avenue area in Pasadena until I saw the signs. I just…read morethought there are just shops along Lake Avenue. Anyway, I was at Susie's Cakes and happened to park in the back parking lot because there were no street parking available. Tons of parking in the back. You wouldn't think there are plenty of parking from the main street. There are pay parking stations. Please read the signs. Certain time limits are free. To me that's service from the city of Pasadena. Thank you!!! Otherwise, you'll have to pay for parking. Cost shouldn't be too bad though. There are actually a few blocks of shops and eateries that pertain to South Lake Avenue. Selections are fantastic. I haven't visited all of them. Here are a few mentionables... Susie's Cakes, Randy's Donuts, El Mendocino, Panda Express, and many more. Park close to where you'll be dining, shopping, and playing. Happy Shopping and Dining!!!

Plenty of food options here. One of my favorite is Ding Tai Fung, also the Nagi ramen place is another good choice. If you have room for dessert, the Japanese cheesecake at Uncle tetsu is a place I stop for sweets. Plenty of parking, there is usually a lot of parking available at the structure by AMC and Bowlero.

I really like this mall I just visited about two weeks ago…read more They have a great selection of Asian specialty foods, skincare, and toys/things to do. My favorite place in the mall is the Hello Pottery and the bakery upstairs near the Gap. The massage people upstairs could do a little better but I guess because I'm pregnant they didn't want to put too much pressure on me. I felt like they rushed my massage at Diamond massage since it was close to closing time. I have yet to see the entire mall but I loved one of their Korean skincare stores I got a few items, the old navy is nice, Nordstrom employees helped me and told me about my bag that I got how to care for it, the Din tai fung was my first time going and nice. I still want to explore the rest :) especially the market downstairs

The service in the stores I stepped into was friendly and low pressure which made the experience even better. Prices felt fair for the area and there is something for different budgets.

It is a cute stop if you are already in the area and want something low key and easy.

The parking garage is $2 an hour (which seems reasonable) and very handy to the property. It was at night but I felt perfectly safe inside. The spaces are large enough for my SUV and the garage is well-lit and everything is labeled.

It's a fine parking garage.
