Russell's

Service feels like a hotel , but portions are similar (i.e., small). When I just missed breakfast (which ends at 2pm) they made an exception for me. Free Wi-Fi is nice, too. Wifi password is 6263187006

A nice little find in downtown Pasadena. Good breakfast , clean , nice atmosphere. Real old timey place. Excellent service , food came out of the kitchen very quickly. Good stop. Highly recommended.

The Belgium waffle was just perfect and my husband says the chili & biscuits were delicious. This is a must stop! AMAZING service, wonderful food, beautiful environment...highly recommend!

Amazing breakfasts & staff always super friendly & welcoming. We eat there whenever we’re staying in Pasadena. Two egg breakfast with bacon is a favourite, but the omelettes are also delicious.

Perfect goodbye to LA. Neighborhood spot with comfort food , hearty bfast . From eggs to pancakes , everything you want from your local diner . Fit with great service!

We had their breakfast menu and everything we ate was great. It's like a fine dining restaurant and a fine combined.

Be sure to come early or make prior reservations on weekends, weekdays are better. Good food, good coffee , good service , wonderful ambiance. I love the bacon !

Opened 1930. American food served at tiny cafe decorated with elaborate chandeliers , classic art work & crown molding.

The brunch is amazing! Pancakes are some of the best I've ever had and the blood orange mimosas are delicious.

Great vibe...and great if you're travelling solo...sit at the bar and relax! ABC omelet with a banana nut pancake to follow is my personal fave ????????????

Little place with a Hotel like vibe. Abit pricy but totally worth it. Go for breakfast !

Everything was delicious!!! I got the bacon , eggs and hash browns and split 3 ways a side order of French toast #wareagle

I had an excellent plate of corn beef hash with crispy hash browns and perfectly poached eggs .

Don't not come here. The best of everything. Food,service and ombiance sp? Dennis works the lunch crowd. He is the best. Ask him to perform a magic trick.

Great place but waiter forgot our salad and soup and brought out our main pLates first other than that place is great!

Great place for brunch with a giant menu. Can be a long wait on the weekends.

If you ask kindly, you can get your side of hash browns prepared as the special spuds (addtl charge) but well worth it.

The wait was worth it. Be patient because the food is great! Try the corned beef hash and the waffle . They're great!

Belgian waffle . Has a lovely golden crunch and a surprisingly light, soft and fluffy inside.

Love the breakfast and the atmosphere. Staff is friendly and the seats are comfy .

Beautiful Art Deco throughout. Almost feels as if you're not in SoCa downtown metro. Can you say stay-cation feels like....

Good burgers , it's changed since I was a child-a bit more upscale . Still, nice play to eat.

Food was good, and the ambiance is something unique to see.

The Spinach and cheese omelette is something else. I don't eat bacon or ham , so I go with veggies .

Get: corned beef hash , pancakes , and waffles . Avoid: drinks (too expensive )

Lovely old school diner . Perfect for any meal, especially breakfast !

The Homemade Corned Beef is very tasty. Too many options I like their menu mix. Good job management team.

Wonderful breakfast . Best poached eggs ! Prime bacon .

Fresh ground beef , music , art .

The ranch breakfast fills you up!

Dennis is the cutest and best food service employee. He is also a real magic person???? At the magic castle

Great breakfast and lunch options, sizable portions

Try the Ultimate Breakfast Burrito - Yum! (via @Foodspotting)

Paleo diet breakfast tip: veggie omlet no cheese , sauteed spinach instead of hashbrowns , and a side of bacon . Yum!!!

The waiters are great! The food is always hot and delicious.

special spuds !! a loaded baked potato but with hash browns . so good but so greasy.

Awesome look and classy . The breakfast is amazing.

Great breakfast , get the Corned Beef Hash

Portions are quite large and price is really reasonable

Make sure you check for bar seating if there's a long wait . Full menu!

Get the corn beef and pay extra for the homemade biscuit .

Yes, you get the waffles .

Breakfast - Chicken Fried Steak and Eggs

Best breakfast on Pasadena....Corine's and my hang out after church every Sunday!

The chili cheese omelette is the best... try the pancakes there good to

Roast beef sandwich is the best.

Dennis nails it on the recommendations!

Vegetarian burrito is fantastic!

No turkey bacon or turkey sausage if you want a Californian breakfast try somewhere else!
