Best Soul Food Restaurants in Pasadena

This was our third time dining at "FIXINS" when we visited LA. From the first to this time, we're never disappointed! Food, Service, Drinks are on point and we look forward to dining there again! Our son joined us on this trip along with his girlfriend. He had eaten at "FIXINS" in Tulsa, OK. He loved his experience there. The appetizers are delicious (deviled eggs, pimento cheese, and the fried green tomatoes)! You can't go wrong with any of their entrees but we love the fried chicken! Definitely if you're in downtown LA definitely make it a destination. I would recommend making reservations as they are crowded on game days on weekends! You won't be disappointed! The DJ kept us enjoying great music while we ate! Love it!

Lovely, welcoming restaurant as soon as we walked in. We were seated swiftly and our server was friendly and provided insights on the menu. We ordered a bottle of bubbly for mimosas, the flavored ice cubes kept the drinks tasty. The cornbread was fluffy and paired well with the butter. Shrimp and grits were packed with flavor, yet not heavy. French toast was on the drier side but the texture and flavor was on point. Loved the ambience and music. Definitely coming back.

Always great food, service and vibe. All staff are great and provide excellent service.

Restaurant was out of cornbread; however, the chef personally gave us some on the way out from brunch. Wish they offered real maple syrup. Appreciate if butter was not in disposable packaging (to help with environment). Chicken and waffles were good. Yams were a bit sweet; however good recipe and enjoyed them.
