Reviews for The Luggage Room Pizzeria & La Grande Orange in Pasadena, CA

Came here on a Sunday afternoon with family. The wait time was long. We used the online booking/waitlist system, where we were... subsequently advised to "check in" in person after 1 hour of waiting. When we checked in, we were advised we needed to wait anadditional half an hour for a table. The process isn't completely clear, but we thought there would be a table ready as soon aswe were advised to "check in". We had the corned beef hash, brussels sprout salad, lemon ricotta pancakes, and some pizzas(which were from next door). The highlight was the lemon ricotta pancakes - extremely fragrant, fluffy, and the accompanimentswere great. The hash was not my favourite, and the salad was more oily than preferred. The pizza has a nice woodfired char and achewy sourdough-like crust which I could not fault. Staff were accommodating as we had a pram, however we couldn't get a seatindoors as it was so busy. They were also quite attentive and friendly during our meal. Read more

I met up with friends over brunch. You order at the kiosk outside then take your seat. Food and drinks were then brought to our... table. The ambiance is relaxing and staff was friendly and helpful. The place is popular but not overly crowded which is greatfor catching up with friends without feeling pressured that someone's waiting for your table. The food is good but notoutstanding. There could also be more non-alcoholic drink choices. Overall, I would recommend this place for casual friendsmeet ups. Read more

This place is high energy with quality food. There was a wait to get seated, but it was nice to place a drink order. I recommend... Money or Your Life. The service here was excellent and left a strong impression. I don't eat out as much, and La Grande ismaking a strong case for my business. There were a few items on the menu I look forward to. My only issue was sitting on thepicnic bench for our group. Never get that table. Otherwise it's an excellent spot to check out. Read more

Went here for the first time recently and wish I had come sooner. The staff is warm and friendly. They have seating inside and... out. I got the pizza ???? with Mushrooms ???? and Green Peppers. Loved the consistency of the dough as well as the taste, I'mmore of a NY Style of Pizza. They also had room for events, such as the baby shower that was there when I was. Also, I enjoyedthe vibe here. Great surroundings and plants ???? it makes you feel relaxed and accepted. Will be returning here Read more

We had a larger group that they were really helpful to accommodate! The food was delicious and the service was great and fast.... Would strongly recommend the deviled eggs with or without bacon; both are delicious. Plus the farmers market pizza is justwhatever is fresh and always changing Read more

Joined the waitlist using Yelp (8th in line). After a 14 minute drive + 8 minute park/walk over, we arrived just in time to be... "1st in line" on moderately busy Friday night. Once you're called, you receive your table number placard, place your own orderand pay via kiosk, then select your own indoor or outdoor table where servers will bring your items. Very easy and smoothprocess. On to the food...The vegetarian chopped salad looked sad and tasted meh. The pickles were interesting (never hadpickled celery before...) but we probably won't be ordering them again. Husband said his iced tea tasted mediocre and my arnoldpalmer was weak. We enjoyed the mother earth pizza (added mushrooms for $3 and super worth it for mushrooms lovers). Took agamble with today's farmers market pizza which was simpler than expected but somewhat redeemed by the balsamic drizzle. Husbandwas disappointed by the lack of sauce on both pizzas so we got a side of pizza sauce which tasted fresh, hot, and had adelightful zest to it; highly recommended. Not sure if we'd give it another go but glad we tried this place regardless. Read more

I’m giving this pizza spot a 3 out of 5 because my family thought it was fairly decent. They loved the crust. My pizza... however, just wasn’t it. I had a simple pepperoni pizza with basil, but is tasted like I was eating pizza with prosciutto onit, it was SOOO incredibly salty. Don’t get me wrong, I like my salt, but this was like a salt bath. I couldn’t eat it. Mykids had the Margherita pizza, while my husband tried the specialty pie. The lemonade was SO tart, my kids couldn’t do it. Andthe Arnold Palmer? Drink it at your own risk. Bland and tart. The customer service was great! Everyone was super friendly andattentive. As for the price point, this pizza was on the pricey side. Each additional topping was $2-3. Each pizza is enough for2 people however, don’t expect to share a pizza with growing children…lol. ?????? Read more

Wow! Another surprise find that turned out wonderfully. Great pizza ingredients on a doughy, chewy, crispy sourdough crust. ... What could be better? Well, great industrial atmosphere that somehow makes it even more satisfying to sit and eat andthoughtful, attentive service makes it a top tier pizza place! Oh yeah, be sure to order the cookies for desert if you likeperfectly thin, chewy, and chocolatey. Read more
