Review content:
With so many new additions to the local Old Town Pasadena dining scene, we haven't had time to really try all of them. So, we decided to take a stab at whittling down the list. For our wedding anniversary, my husband and I decided to do something completely different and try this fondue experience. I called on a Friday and was able to get an early reservation for that Sunday evening. They easily accommodated our special seating requirements and inquired about a special occasion. For a nominal fee, they helped make the evening special with balloons, some fondue chocolate to take home and a framed photograph to help us commemorate our anniversary. The staff was very friendly and open to answering all of our questions about sauces and cooking methods. They were also very attentive without being annoying.
My husband and I tried the "Big Night Out"...which I think for a first time...was a good choice. It allowed us to try all 4 courses without having to make too many decisions. We enjoyed the Quattro Formaggi (4 cheese) first course with veggies, bread, and tortilla chips. My California salad was nice with a tangy raspberry viniagrette and walnuts. My husband wasn't too impressed with his Caesar salad though. For our entree we chose the Bourguignonne and with the Fondue Feast. This offered us a selection of meats and shrimp with several different types of sauces. For dessert, we tried the hazelnut/chocolate fondue. It was a very sweet way to end the evening.
I definitely recommend it for a fun special occasion dining experience. It's not one of those spur of the moment places. As other reviewers have noted, you have to make reservations to be guaranteed a table. This is because eating here is the definition of a dining EXPERIENCE. Our meal lasted over 3 hours. They don't have a lot of table turnover here. Also, it's definitely not cheap. For the two of us, our dinner was about $100 with no wine. Give it a try!
Pros: friendly staff, easy valet accessible
