THIS RESTAURANT IS CLOSED Ciao Pasadena Restaurant Review:

Unremarkable but reliable, this pleasant, moderately-priced Italian spot is a welcome new addition to the legions of Old Pasadena trattorias. The storefront restaurant is attractive, with white-linened tables, exposed brick walls, and colorful art. Sinatra plays in the background and a lovely patio is tucked into the rear of the restaurant. All the usual suspects are listed on the predictable menu, such as a good Caesar salad, fettuccine Alfredo, penne alla vodka, wood-fired pizzas and well-priced entrées such as veal in Gorgonzola cream sauce, rack of lamb and scampi in a creamy Champagne sauce. This restaurant has no relation to downtown L.A.'s Ciao Trattoria.
