Dining room at Roy's, Pasadena, CAFounder-chef Roy Yamaguchi was one of the pioneers of Hawaiian Fusion cuisine and his mini-empire of namesake restaurants has multiplied worldwide. This Pasadena branch is the 37th establishment to open. You can depend on each branch to offer signature dishes as well as the creations of the local chef. Classic dishes include wood-grilled Szechuan baby-back pork ribs, blackened island ahi in a spicy-hot soy-mustard butter sauce, New Zealand rack of lamb, and roasted macadamia island mahi mahi with Maine lobster brandy cream. The hot, dark chocolate soufflé is the finale to target. Yamaguchi pays attention to his wine lists, featuring rare and unusual selections, many produced and bottled exclusively for Roy's.
