Cafe X2O, South Pasadena - Restaurant in South Pasadena - 818 Fair Oaks Ave, USA

Dined in for dinner. Loved the lentil soup and the lamb. My roommate enjoyed the chicken. Convenient location and cute set up with good efficient service. We came back for take out for lunch soon after, seemed busier - lentil soup was still good but not as fresh, lamb was either overcooked or reheated, which resulted in chewy tough meat. So either depends on how busy they are, or if they are sending out fresh food. Would try again. If food is consistent next time, we may recommend.

The food was pretty good, though new wary of the olives if you get them. They are not pitted so if you decide to eat a mouthful like I did be warned you will bite down on seeds. You have been warned. The lamb was good though

The food was amazing we got the mini meal it was really good and filling. Also the manager taha was wonderful great attitude with the people and with his workers. The service was great order was fast and the server was asking every couple of minutes if we needed anything . Food came out quickly and hot. Great job will be back soon!

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

Ordered the lamb wrap, my god the worst I’ve ever tasted. The pita, is all broken, it came with about two pieces of lamb… never going back.

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.

Casual dining with delicious fresh food and great portions. Service was good. Not many people were there but food was good still!
