Review by Verna O.

Tucked away in Pasadena, Mijares Mexican Restaurant is a delightful experience steeped in over a century of history. We indulged in the chili Colorado, which was heavenly - tender meat in a rich, flavorful sauce that truly stood out. The atmosphere was cozy and welcoming, making it ideal for families.

Happy hour is a highlight here, with great drink specials and tasty small plates. Parking can get tricky due to its popularity, but the delicious food and vibrant ambiance make it worth the visit. Don’t miss the guacamole...! 🥑
