Sadly, Gale's is no longer a reliable place for a good meal and attentive service. On a recent visit, our waitress was brusk and dismissive and the manager was more interested in turning tables than caring for patrons. Neither the waitress nor the manager adequately explained the calamari on the menu, and when the dish arrived, my friend discovered a LONG hair in her food. The entire table was disgusted. The manager took the food away, but did not apologize or offer anything as a replacement.. The waitress breezed by with a chirpy, ""Can I get you something else?"" but no apology. The manager didn't even bother to say goodbye or apologize for what happened. The former personal feeling of the restaurant is gone; it's now more of a mill. With all the wonderful choices for good (hairless) food in Pasadena, don't waste your time and money at Gale's.
Pros: Pasta dishes
Cons: Poor service; disinterested management
