It all started back in 1923 in a small storefront in downtown Los Angeles. 95 years later and 5 generations later El Cholo has become synonymous with Mexican food all over Southern California.

Our Pasadena venue opened in 2000 and is at the Paseo Mall within walking distance of the Civic Auditorium and Convention Center, overlooking Colorado Blvd.
The menu consists of classics dating back to the original menu along with an array of more modern dishes showcasing the different regions of Mexico.

Four private rooms that can accommodate parties from 40-100 that allows our valued guest a memorable experience no matter the occasion.

Most famously known for our Margaritas and a menu featuring over 150 Tequilas. Both of our bars offer a comfortable environment allowing our guest to relax enjoy their experience.

Mother's Day brunch was a horrible disappointment. How can you put food on trays without a heating element underneath them??? The food was BARELY warm at best! Is this a food safety violation? Usually food is labeled, which it was NOT. I politely made the server aware of the food being cold. He immediately asked me if I wanted to talk to a manager, rather than telling me he would let the kitchen staff know so that they could fix the problem. I asked one of the staffers at the buffet table why the food wasn't labeled. His response was that time was very tight. Again, it was Mother's Day and most decent restaurants were booked solid for most of the day. I consider myself to be very open-minded when it comes to food options and do not typically complain. In this case, had it not been a special day for my mother, I would have politely thanked the staff for their efforts and would have absolutely left the restaurant immediately. Our Mother's Day lunch was completely unsatisfactory, unfortunately for me and my family.

This restaurant is a poor excuse for Mexican food. Really disappointed. The only redeeming quality was the waitress who really tried to make this a pleasant experience. It wasn’t. TERRIBLE.

Service was horrible! Waitress only came to take our order and never came back again, never got refills, had to ask host for our check and she had to close out our check.

Although we enjoyed the experience overall, the food was hit and miss. Even with many large parties, our server was able to keep our drinks full. We tried the Fiesta Platter (our favorite was the Quesadilla) and the Enchiladas Suizas, which unfortunately lacked spice/flavor we were expecting.

Their tableside guacamole is always delicious, I think many people tend to order the same favorite thing but El cholo has a menu that’s worth exploring because many of the things don’t appear on a typical Mexican food restaurant. Sadly the service recently was very hidden mess we had two different servers come to our table asking about drinks and we’re ready to order so maybe it was just that night or where we were sitting

We were seated at 1 PM on a Thursday. The restaurant was all but empty. My salad was excellent but our #2 entrees were way below standard and failed to meet expectations. We’ve been here before and always had much better food.

Really awesome casual restaurant. The green corn tamales were amazing as always and their margaritas are great. I tried the cochinita pibil and it was first rate—tastes like the Yucatán!

The restaurant manager (?) was very good about giving us a table outside by a warmer to accommodate my elderly mom. We all loved our food. The chips were a bit dry and it would be great if they had green salsa for dipping too. The waiter was friendly but took a long time to bring us our check.
