    We went to visit my mother in-law who doesn’t get out much. She is living in a 6-bed where they take care of her. She likes it there. Her entire life was spent taking care of my wife and everyone in her large family. So no that she is 89 and can barely get in a car I was going to bless her! First we drove to the top of Mt. Baldy and she had never been. Photo opportunity and now that photo is on her bedside nightstand. Next we ate at Lemonades on the Rose Parade route just a day after the big game. Then we took her whale watching and Dolphin viewing off Long Beach and she then finished with a real authentic Mexican restaurant where she ate old school mashed potato tacos. She grew up poor but live a rich life. Thanks Grandma Tere!

    Prices have gone up and a bunch of salads that I loved are gone. Get the Cozy Combo if you are.looking to get a hot protein. It's not on the menu but if you ask for it they will give it to you. It comes with 1 warm side (no protein), 1 marketplace salad and 1 warm protein. The Poki bowl is not bad but not as packed with goodies as other places. Overall a decent meal option but there's lot of options around if you are spending $15+ a meal.

    Parking: Street parking or in the back there’s a parking lot for the businesses along that street. Either way, parking is tricky and you better be good at parallel parking. Pay for parking thru the Passport app! So easy and you can extend your meter time with ease. Food: Great quality and fresh options Never gets old Staff is super nice and quick service

    I waited half an hour for an online pickup order. People in line were served faster, while my sandwich sat on the counter. The sandwich was not cut and the beef had lots of fat and gristle. They are clearly not prepared for the lunch rush.

    The Lemaonade store in Pasadena is simply an imposition. I had ordered via app pickup (ASAP). After my arrival after 30min my pickup was not yet ready. After I had asked several times whether they can now go through my preparation, I was answered that it is currently in the preparation. After another 10min I asked again for my pickup. The answer was "is currently in preparation". Finally, after 30 minutes I left the store - without my food. The unfriendly nature of the manager there, her communication turned away from the customer, the feeling of hunger when leaving the store makes my order a failure. Since the situation made me emotionally very angry, this will be the first time that I will write a 1 star rating including the long justification. Of course I will not visit the Lemonade store again. Of course I will ask for the money back.

    First time ever coming to a Lemonade location. Got recommended the Mango 🥭 Chicken 🐔 Bowl and loved it. Little spicy for my taste but the quality of the food and preparation was awesome. Also enjoyed their Mint Lemonade! Tasted great 👍. Good vibe and right in the middle of everything, would definitely come back here again.

    Staff were friendly. I like my lemonade drink and the squash. The order I got was like a BBQ in a bowl where the carb is mashed potato. The meat was okay. It would taste better just with the kale and no mashed potato. Not the best tasting thing, cool concept though.

    Cafeteria style of ordering your food. Make sure not to go there when your too hungry because you start ordering more than you can eat because everything looks so good!!! Only thing I wouldn't get was the chicken, it was a little too dry for my taste. The Mac and cheese is to die for!!

    Update: it appears Lemonade is replying to reviews here, implying they’re making efforts to rectify the situation. I filled out their online form, and received no response after several weeks. I’ve eaten here several times and it’s usually good, but recently a dish I got had an entire handful of ginger, barely any rice, and the beef “short rib” was mostly globs of pure fat. Apparently they need better QC or something.

    Today I tried lemonade for the first time. Vibe is really relax and the they have very healthy options. I was surprised of how good my dish was. Usually healthy option place lack flavors, but lemonade definitely deliver on taste and quality of the food. I will visit again for sure. The location in Pasadena in very nice is like modern restaurant perfect to grab a bite with your friends and to have a great time.

    I was extremely disappointed after eating here. The food did not taste or appear fresh. The sweet potatoes were hard and undercooked. The dessert was tiny and did not taste good. Worst of all, there was techno music blasting so loud it have me anxiety and I had to exit the restaurant. It sounded like 5 car alarms going off at once. This was a waste of money and a terrible experience.

    Do not waist your money! Bowl Portions are inconsistent and incorrectly made. Our group ordered four bowls (2 chicken manago and 2 poke bowls). The amount of food in the poke bowls was laughable. There was barely any food in each bowl. The chicken manago bowls were incorrectly made and they were too spicy to eat. I wish to took a picture of the bowls to show the portion difference. There were 3 different employees making our bowls and It’s amazing to think they all screwed it up. Just go somewhere else (Granville or Mendocino Farms) Parking at this location is also bad. There is a structure in the back but they do not validate(of course).

    Friendly staff, well-kept interior, and they offer samples on anything you're curious about trying. Had some avocado toast here that was pretty good and sampled some of the Carrot Ginger lemonade which was delicious. I'm interested in coming back to try the other food and drink options they offer!

    Great hour summer lunch. The salad choice depends on which day you go in, but most of time is good. Yummy different flavor lemonade. There are some shaded outdoor seating at the back of restaurant too.

    Positives: The sides. Cauliflower and the sweet potato sides were both very flavorful. Negatives: The Ahi Tuna Poke Bowl. Four tiny pieces of tuna in my entire $13 Poke Bowl. For $13 at Bay Poke, I get multiple selections of fish with 6ish pieces each. Booo!! The wait. I placed my order online. Their online ordering system indicated that my order would be ready at 12:10. I got there early. I asked about my order. The man checked on it. He indicated that it was "coming." 10 minutes later, I find out that they hadn't even made my order. This is in a restaurant that isn't crowded. It was a full 15 minutes after they'd told me to expect my order before I finally had my food. Not okay. Particularly since I was in a rush.

    Haven't been here before and liked it. My group of 3 total were greeted as we came in. Everything was spaced out social distance style inside and same with the outdoor seating. I ordered the chefs bowl of the green chili chicken with brown rice. It was really good and if you like spicy, it only had a mild feel to it, nothing going to hurt your tongue, but you can taste it. I ordered the original lemonade since this was my first time, but you have a set of choices to pick from. Seating was easy to get to outside and it wasn't too busy for a Monday at lunch time. More people picking up to go orders.
