Bodega Wine - Pasadena

Why did I score a 5 star? Friendly staff, good food, good price, good beer, always a place to sit (usually we come at night), Lauren is a fantastic server, beer, wine and soy (soju is delicious), carnivore pizza is amazing, but even more amazing is the grilled brie cheese.

I was in town and I loved this place. You have good music and great wine and beer selection. Very recommended!

There wasn't much of a wait on a Saturday night. Other places in the area were 1-2 hours or just gave no one to add to the waiting list. Outside seats were available and the table even had a small electronic device to call the waiter. The menu was shortened by COVID. I got the Brie grilled cheese... I think adding the bacon made it great. The bartender has been there for years, so when we ordered drinks that were no longer on the menu, they still brought them to us. All in all, great experience. Will be back.

Decided to stop for a bite and an adult drink. The bartender was very knowledgeable about the beer offer. After listening to my preferences, he chose a great beer that was perfect with the pizza I had. The pizza was very good. Although I had no wine, the selection looked good. If you're late, they have a nice happy hour after 10:00.

Great wine bar atmosphere. Had good music and affordable wine bottles on special Wednesday night. The pizzas are larger than you would expect, could easily feed 2 people each. What more could you ask for.
