Very disappointed! They parked my family of 5 in a corner it was not crowded and it was a Mother’s Day also we were there right when it opened as well so it was empty… Not asking for much but 2 grown men and a pregnant daughter and law and my sons girlfriend and myself being sat in a corner abutted against the wall was very uncomfortable and claustrophobic. They denied us a table that sat empty the whole duration of our dinner.Ordered chile relleno which I love, it was cold in the middle as well as my son’s wet burrito.Good was extremely bland absolutely no flavor in each dish, I was very embarrassed to have suggested this restaurant as I said we were one group of 20 to get a table then our...
Went in for lunch and was immediately greeted. Thank you. Salsa wasn’t very good but it was fresh. Waiter was nice. I was expecting the food to be better based on the prices and atmosphere. It felt upscale but I’ve eaten better from taco trucks no offense. Nothing special. Just cheap ingredients. We all sang happy birthday and the Mexican singer was great. Seems like a friendly place but the smell of sewage is noticeable in bar area. I’m used to eating fresh food but if you’re used to frozen processed food this place probably tastes gourmet. Only time I’d return is if I’m starving and need something quick. 3.5 stars. Decent but not great.
I’d like to rate this place 3.5, but Google doesn’t give me that option. We've been coming here on and off for years, mostly for the bar atmosphere. However, the prices for drinks have skyrocketed, which is why we haven't visited in a while. The food isn’t spectacular, but it’s a staple in Pasadena, which explains the crowds. In my opinion, the fajitas are the best item on the menu. The staff is fantastic, and the outdoor patio is lovely. I just wish they would put more care into the food.
This is a regular spot for us after work on Fridays. They have a beautiful, relaxing patio when the weather is good. And plenty of indoor seating when it isn't.The food is reliably good, and the service is outstanding (shout out to Alfredo who remembers all of our orders every week! .There is a parking lot but local street parking supplements because it does fill up. It gets very busy in the evenings.Definitely a quality institution in Pasadena, and we hope it continues to be.

The steak picados I had were the best I've enjoyed in quite a while! However, I did notice that the prices have gone up since my last visit, which is understandable. I also tried the chile rellenos, but I was disappointed by that dish. The chili was smaller than a tiny jalapeño and was heavily coated in batter. I mentioned my concern to the server, who said he’d look into it, but I never heard back.
The staff were amazing welcoming people . The food was good but nothing extraordinary. Everything else though was fun, such as the atmosphere, service, and the level of patrons the staff knew was unbelievable. Kid-friendliness: The servers were great with my daughter. They chatted with her and even brought her dessert.
This classic Mexican restaurant is a must-visit! Be sure to try the margaritas and guacamole—they're fantastic. The portion sizes are generous, making it an excellent choice for gatherings with friends and family.
Very nice Mexican restaurant with ample number of food, drink, and desert selections. Good service, exclusive parking lot, large space, warm ambiance. Overall, it is highly recommended.

Third time in Pasadena and finally made it to Mijares. Did not disappoint. Drinks were good and food was great. Easy to see why it's popular and had a 45 minute wait.
The people and the place and fantastic, but the food was dreadful. The beans and rice that came with the meal was the only part we could eat.
