    This place is your absolute 5 stars experience in terms of food quality and presentation, service, ambiance, and décor. We ordered the fillet mignon, the halibut (which is one of their signature dishes that I highly recommend), the endive salad and finally the île flottante for dessert. The food is fabulous and you can easily tell that someone passionate about cooking made it! Everyone is friendly from owners to chef to servers. Give this restaurant a shot and I am sure you will come back to try the rest of the menu :)

    New addition to old Town Pasadena, very nice elegant yet modern interior. Friendly server (two thumbs up) make my dinner experience more enjoyable. Menu is typical French cuisine, reasonable priced and well prepared.

    Nice little restaurant. French onion soup was excellent, think it had some wine in it, very tasty. The crudo was very light and really tasty with the orange. I had the halibut which was excellent and she had the lamb. The halibut had a great sauce. Only real complaint was the halibut and lamb got a little dry at the end, both could have used more sauce. For desert get the mousse, outstanding and plenty of it plus fresh cream..

    Service and food are excellent. One our favorite restaurants in Pasadena. Located on Green Street the staff and owners are helpful and welcoming. Great menu and a good wine list. Reasonable corkage fee. Entre Nous is definitely worth a visit.

    My new fave restaurant! Awesome French food, great service in a casual and lovely atmosphere. My family loved it! The steak was amazing. Loved the fish and mussels and the escargot. Ate up the charcuterie and cheese board. And the wines were yummy. Everyone in the restaurant was so happy! The owners were so kind.

    The decor, lighting, and music makes for an ambience that is delightful and vibrant without being too noisy. Expected a little better from the food, but overall a lovely meal.

    Great French restaurant and a huge improvement compared to the previous restaurant that was here. They had around 5-6 waiters on duty during Saturday evening. Started with the escargo as an appetizer which went well with the bread. Ordered the rack of lambs which was presliced for you. Go for medium-rare. For dessert, the blanched pear dessert was unique and was complemented with vanilla ice cream. Good lively atmosphere. Enjoy!

    Been here a few times. Great spot for French onion soup and escargot but the rest leaves you wanting, imo. Appetizers are mostly five stars. Primarily the French onion soup, Escargot, and tartare. If I were to come back we would probably just do a few apps. Entrees. Ribeye and frites was cooked to temp, with a proper crust, peppercorn sauce and fries were great. On its own a great dinner. But at $52, you will be very hard pressed figure out how that math works out based on meal itself. (welcome to Pasadena I guess). Braised lamb shoulder is hard to articulate but if you are thinking rich, ultra tender lamb covered in the perfect reduction this was not quite it. Still decent but less moist and more chunky, if that makes any sense, served over a bed of pureed potatoes. Sea bass and lentils is served with an overwhelming amount of lentils and the fish is just along for the ride in a difficult pairing. Duck confit is towards the top but more in the sense there is nothing overtly wrong with it. If you have a craving for French cuisine, this place will most likely scratch the itch.

    Great tasting food with very nice proportions. Nice wine list. Four of us ate different meals and everyone enjoyed their meals.

    As authentic as you will find. French owner , beautiful setting nestled under beautiful trees. Indoor setting is romantic with great attentive staff . Food, outstanding, great French wines and the homemade fresh French bread delivered to your table, what more is needed

    Well just between us, this little spot is incredible. Real deal rustic fine dining, if that makes sense. This is where chefs go to eat when they get off work. Phenomenal execution with very knowledgeable staff. Some of the finest scallops I have ever tasted. The brie en croute was perfect. A small wine list is all that is needed, every one a gem. Thanks so much Chris!

    Authentic and Elevated French Food. My partner and I go on our Monthaversaries, super intimate and great vibe. I just wish the servers knew a bit more about their champagne and wine selection. Also, if I’m going to pay $100+ for a champagne bottle, I don’t want it in a rubber bag chiller. Please take care of that. Looks so cheap. Their mussels are delicious.

    Delicious! I tried the escargot, Ceasars salad and the halibut entree Everything was wonderful The escargot was so buttery and garlicky and tender. Exactly what you expect and it's amazing The halibut was so soft and buttery and it came with kind of a marmalade zest and it was such a beautiful meeting of flavors. The wait staff were nice and attentive and the atmosphere, well, French! Good value of food and experience!

    This is an authentic French restaurant! I loved it!! Reminded me so much of paris when i was there, it’s not americanized at all. The whole menu, picture, sayings on the wall were all french. I’m amazed, the food was so delicious and the waiters had beautiful and heavy french accents. Definitely recommend, I’ll be back!

    Great: French Onion Soup, Bread, Wine, and the Ambiance. Good: My steak and frittes were ok. I say this out of my bias of my own great skill of grilling beef. The Lamb was good for my friend, but she stated that she has had better. Overall, it's still a good place to experience french cuisine.

    I love this restaurant! This was my second time going and it once again exceeded my expectations. The service is phenomenal. Our waiter was so friendly, attentive and cute. He recommended the baked brie, which was absolutely delicious. He also helped me decide on a wine based on my preferences. The atmosphere is perfect and cozy. I do hope they expand their wine list however. Other than that, prices are very reasonable considering what your getting. Highly recommend!
