Reviews for Daphne's in Pasadena, CA
I've always ate at daphne's at other locations for years and love the food. This particular location was terrible. I have never... been so insulted in my life. My husband and I order the food to stay and eat. While waiting which seems forever we saw one ofthe young lady starting to lock one door and putting chairs on the table. I ask "what time are you close " she said "8 but wasjust inform that they were closing". It was around 4pm and we were not told that we could not stay and eat. When our food wasdone, the young lady started to pack our food to go. I said "we live to far and need to sit down and eat. We told you that wewere eating here". The second girl in the back who was cooking said " well we just found out that we have to close and your morethan welcome to go sit outside and eat". I was livid and this was really unprofessional. I said" I was not inform that we couldnot eat inside. We are not from the area. If we can't eat, we don't want the food." She said well you can stay but we will becleaning cause we're getting ready to close up" I told her that it was okay we will stay to eat." The food was actually awfuland had no taste. It was a waste of my time. I would not referr this location to anyone. The girls were unprofessional and rudeand the food was awful. I have never wrote a review before but I had to do one for this place. It should not be open forbusiness. I understand staffing is pretty hard at this time but no one deserve to be treated the way we were treated. This placedid not deserve the $60 plus that I spent. Again I will never visit or recommend Daphne's pasadena to anyone Read more
Overpriced under new management and they have taken away the lunch specials. Dry and falling apart.
It tastes better than it looks, but when it looks like school food and tastes just okay when there are other places around that... look and taste better, uh... yeah, 3 stars. The price could be a bit lower, but rent is probably sky high in this area, so it'sunderstandable. Read more
Found it on Postmates when we were craving for Mediterranean food one night. We opted for loaded fries, loaded pita,... spanakopita, a combo plate, and a baklava to share. The spanakopita was yum! It was the highlight that night, it's flaky,flavorful and cheese-y. The combo plate was decent but not great. As for the loaded fries and the loaded pita, they basicallyuse exactly the same ingredients. The loaded fries were good, and the loaded pita was huge w/ tons of meat, but I wish bothdishes included some veggies. Baklava was flaky and good. I could eat the whole thing if was not overly sweet. All in all, it'sa place for meat lovers I guess. Unfortunately, it was just too heavy for me. Read more

This is a good fast casual place for Greek food. I love their Mix & Match plates. Their prices have gone up since the pandemic... but their rewards program is generous and service friendly. Read more
I am originally Greek and this is the worst food I ever had not only by Greek standards but by American as well. I don’t... understand why they claim to have Greek food when they obviously have never stepped foot in Greece and have no absolute senseabout the Greek culture. The food is nowhere near Greek cuisine but some kind of hybrid creation between Mexican and Americanfood. I had an “original” pita for almost 10$ only to realize that the pita was small, the pita bread tasted like plainwheat and it was full of lettuce. Just for your information the original pita is supposed to come wrapped and with French fries.You have clearly not even seen YouTube videos on how to do that properly. You are downgrading the Greek cuisine and culture andexploiting the name. I am disappointed. Read more
Great food every time! Very nice staff too. I like the classic pita with the "make it spicy" and my partner gets the cali pita.... Fries are great, and I like the falafels. Definitely a good choice for greek food in the area. Read more
