In Short
A dark and florid dining room abloom with statues, flowers and candles, JJ's is the big-deal date spot on Old Town Pasadena's Colorado Boulevard. With its crooning lounge pianist and affably affected air, the place is… Read Full Editorial
Closed and Lied To Me by JJsSucks via Citysearch on 4/12/2009
I had set up a private dining room reservation for April 11 with Hugo, who I guess is the Maitre 'D. He was told numerous times what the exact date of the event was, and how many guests I was anticipating. 18 of us showed up last night to…
Pretty good, but not by akrali via Citysearch on 3/18/2009
My husband and I went to J J's for his birthday. For the most part, all went well; food was good though my filet mignon was a bit dry. Still, we enjoyed every moment of our meal. Our waiter was a bit too pleased with himself and tended…
overrated and overpriced by claudia501 via Citysearch on 3/10/2009
I dined there on Valentine?s Day, along with 5 other people in my party. The menu was prefixed; the waiter made us order a salad, entree, and dessert. He said everyone in the table would have the appetizers. The appetizer course looked…
Very good steaks by JohnCDaly via Citysearch on 8/15/2008
Good steaks and priced fairly. This is always a delightful restuarant when you want a good steak and are in pasadena.
not recommended by stacy103 via Citysearch on 7/27/2008
Service was horrible. First they said its a 5 min wait, after 2 minutes he said 30 minutes wait when in fact the restaurant was half empty. My husband went to the patio which was empty and had them sit us there. The waiter seemed like he…
Best Food in LA by Sumbitch via Citysearch on 7/12/2008
We have been twice and have found the service excellent and the food outstanding. We have lived in many areas of the US and the world and really enjoy good food. In our years in LA we have constantly searched for the best places to eat. We…
Better to walk in then call, very rude by Tripoli via Citysearch on 5/4/2008
This food facility must serve the customers that think that the rude phone etiquette determines a good restaurant. We attempted to make reservations twice only to receive the consistent terrible service by phone. We unfortunately dined…
Maybe not so good customer service by Vannessa70 via Citysearch on 3/8/2008
I have never been to JJ Steakhouse and after reading the angry response dated 10/1/07,from the restaurant to the person who had a bad experience with their lamb, I will never go there. I was tempted to take my husband there for his…
Terrible Experience with This Restaurant by sorensss via Citysearch on 2/12/2008
We recently had a dinner party at this restaurant. I had pre-negotiated a deal with the manager. He wrote the contract in a sloppy way that could have been interpreted in several ways. Since we had gone over our agreement on the phone…
GREAT Restaurant- Highly Recommended by arcie88 via Citysearch on 1/14/2008
GREAT Restaurant- Highly recommended! My boyfriend and I went to JJ's this past Friday and were impressed with the amount of attention the staff provided, even more pleasing was our dinner. We had swordfish steak which was incredibly…
no poor people allowed by drunktank via Citysearch on 11/18/2007
just because you charge a lot for food does not good food make. it's like a dressed up sizzler with hairy chests and gold chains. when the waiter brought ower check he smuggley remarked that we didn't have to worry because our check card…
Ten Years later, I'm still haunted from my visit to JJ's by standog via Citysearch on 8/26/2007
I took a business associate to JJ's on a weekday night. He ordered a steak, and I having just returned from New Zealand where the lamb is the world's best ordered JJ's version, It was pure gristle and I could not even begin to eat it.…
Best customer service however there's a price for it... by len74 via Citysearch on 8/26/2007
I've been to this place only once. It was indeed very satisfying. It located on second floor, the design was tasteful and classy. They offer the best customer service, all the staff were very nice, genuinely friendly, attentive and…
Great Steak House by ptrenia via Citysearch on 1/10/2007
Highly recommend this place. Great steaks and drinks. Location is on the 3rd level. Price is high but well worth it. Check it out next time in Pasadena.

We loved it by stassart70 via Citysearch on 3/31/2006
My Father was visiting from out of state and he is a steak man through and through. Never been to JJ's but thought since we planed on staying in Old Town for the evening we could check it out. HE LOVED IT! There was a Harpist playing and…

Great steak, definitely not JJ.
JJ Steakhouse - on a downward spiral by svtman21 via Citysearch on 6/27/2005
I have been eating at JJ's for years, and have taken many friends there along with me. The ambience is second to none, especially when they have a piano player. Service has always been excellent, and the tiramisu is THE BEST on the…
a perfect night by karimellis via Citysearch on 3/1/2005
My husband and I celebrated his 30th birthday on a Friday night with his parents from out-of-state. We came with the mindset that this was a special occasion worthy of "going all out for." The crab cakes were good. Small, but good. We all…
Not hip on the Wedge by lg6500 via Citysearch on 10/19/2004
The food was excellent!! Large portions!! Go Hungry! The only food thing was the wedge of lettuce they bring you it just looks so unappealing!! The service was a bit stuffy! For a much older crowd, I think, Maybe in their 50's.
