Gale's at 452 Fair Oaks Avenue, Pasadena, California.

I love Gale's. The food is always delicious. Their beet salad is particularly good. The only reason I give it 4 stars is because, honestly, the chairs are super uncomfortable...

We've been to Gales's twice and have always enjoyed our meals there. The pastas are innovative and very flavorful. This time we ordered the short-rib ravioli with mushrooms to share and it was lovely. Organic green salad and the artichokes with burrata were great too. The only downside of dining here is that the chef is quite heavy handed with the salt. Reminder to ourselves to ask for less salt next time. Pizza crust was nice but toppings were also a tad too salty.
Ended our meal with a decadent chocolate cake. Prices are a tad high here, I would prob expect to pay around 85 (tip and tax inclusive), but it ended up about 100.
