Review Cafe X2o - South Pasadena

Good customer service and good food. I wish their portion sizes were a little bigger but their prices were very reasonable and taste was superb. The hummus in particular was incredible.

My wife took me to this Mediterranean restaurant in South Pasadena nearby her work that she and her friends always go there for lunch. My wife was telling they love including herself she say the food is really good. We came to the restaurant at the right time it was lunch time and they have a lunch special deal. My wife order the falafel plate and I got the chicken kabobs and you pick your sides. It took about 20 minutes to have our meal ready everything in the restaurant is made from scratch and made to order. My meal comes with chicken kabobs,rice and garlic spread as my side and also including pita bread. The chicken kabobs were very tender and juicy and full of flavor that I really enjoy and the rice was incredible good and fluffy that I really like. The garlic spread was very good I use on the Chicken and the rice it more flavor then I on the pita bread so good. The side was very good. My wife enjoy her falafel very much that's her favorite she say the falafel have tons of flavors and she give a piece of falafel wow it was so good I enjoy it. Then she enjoy the hummus including the salad. Being my first time at Cafe X20 the food was incredible food. I told my wife we need to come back again to try different items.

It's just okay BECAUSE I've had much better & considerably larger portions for similar prices in the Glendale area. The portions are quite skimpy for the price, and most places I go to give garlic paste as a condiment, instead of making you choose it as your side. The kebabs/ lule are juicy, but don't have that open-grill/flame taste like traditional Armenian or middle eastern preparation style. The sides are a complete joke in my honest opinion. You get maybe 4 forkfuls of salad, and not much of a spread to use. Not much pita bread either. The boreg is good, but has more of an empanada thicker dough, than the lighter flaky style I'm accustomed to from bakeries. Overall, the flavors are decent, but the portions are too small for the price being asked

I've tried several dishes and liked them all. The hummus is the best in this area. The fattoush salad is always made really good with the perfect amount of dressing. The chicken is juicy and well seasoned. The meat dishes are also 👌 Basically, if you are looking for really good Mediterranean/Middle Eastern food in South Pasadena this is the place to get it.

I had a great first experience and the food was delicious. I ordered the chicken kebab with side of tzatziki. The chicken was moist and very well seasoned and everything tasted so fresh. Monica was very pleasant and helpful. I would definitely recommend it.

I don’t like food from this location the chicken is dry, salad tastes funky, hummus is okay but nothing like their location in Monrovia. Now that location has some YUM FOOD! Or if you’re in Pasadena go to Mediterranean Cafe on Shoppers Lane, go once and you’ll be going back for more.

Extremely skimpy on the portions - especially the rice. Guys, it’s dinner time and I want a dinner. Rice is cheap and this portion is less than I’d expect in a lunch bowl at chipotle. Chicken was seasoned and cooked nicely. The Lule kabob was very salty and had a gummy almost sausage like texture. Overall below average kabob spot that could be much better with a few improvements.

This is a new branch. Soft opening. Perfect distance to JPL. Food came out hot and fresh! The boregs were also served very hot! Yummy. We looked the sandwiches so much we ordered 4 more to go. We got there place to ourselves and we thoroughly enjoyed the food. Must try!
