Most famous for hosting the annual New Year's Tournament of Roses Parade and Rose Bowl, Pasadena is more than just a football town. Its extravagant City Hall boasts a beautiful Baroque dome, a courtyard garden and relaxing fountain.

That chattering in the air is probably the local population of naturalized Red-crowned Amazon parrots.

Wide variety of exquisite selections on the menu. Pasta, seafood and steak choices all were outstanding and made it a difficult choice. Lobster crepe appetizer was delicious and fully endowed. Delicious lobster bisque sauce topped it off. I had the pan seared sea bass as a main course. Presentation was picturesque. Absolutely delicious. Wide variety of desserts as well. Again fabulous presentation. Moreover, our service was truly exceptional.

We had a party of 6 and all met at the bar. Victor made some great cocktails and we all enjoyed his mixology. The hostess was very nice and did not rush us to the table. We all enjoyed a great meal. Steaks were all cooked perfectly, sides of âhouseâ Mac and cheese was excellent. Broccoli and mashed potatoes perfect. Service was excellent great location for a business dinner.

So, when I reserved this through Open Table, it didnt disclose it was a fixed menu. These are typically a horrible representation of a menu and grossly over priced. This was unfortunately no different. And look, I love the Royce. It's a great restaurant. But I took my family here for steak and to share a bunch of appetizers. Last night the only beef option was beef Wellington, which I wouldn't order ever. The meal was just a bummer. Dessert was a near frozen apple tart and peppermint panacotta with a unfortunate consistency. On the plus side, the service was excellent. So, take this review with a grain of salt. It doesn't reflect the usual menu, but that it wasnt disclosed it would be a fixed menu until we were seated really angered meDear RH,Thank you for sharing this valuable feedback, and we truly apologize that you found your holiday meal at The Royce not up to par. While we do note on OpenTable that our regular menu may not be available on holidays and include the prix-fixe on our website as the Christmas option, we understand the confusion and will discuss with our OpenTable rep how we may better ensure this information is made clearer in any way possible through that platform. I have also shared your comments with our Royce chef and team regarding the dishes served so that we can correct any issues immediately as we prepare for upcoming holidays. Again, we truly apologize and hope we will have a chance to welcome you in the future for an improved experience.Best Regards,Paul LeclercManaging Director
