Dish Restaurant - La Cañada Flintridge, California

I wanted to take my mom to breakfast and found this cute little but really not little place located on Foothill Blvd. I loved the eclectic collection of tables and chairs and the rustic flair. The fact that they had booths going around the circular windows made the atmosphere fill airy. I appreciated how the seating was spaced so that I could have a conversation and not be interrupted by the table next to me. Martine made the amazing suggestion of having the chorizo and eggs, which I paired with a short stack of pancakes and bacon for my mom and I to share. I've eaten chorizo and eggs my whole life, but I have never had them taste as delicious as they did at Dish. I was really tempted to try their Bloody Mary. However, that's a meal in itself, and I was there for breakfast with my mom. So, instead, we had coffee and water. The coffee, a smooth, rich bold flavor. I just wanted more. I need to find out what brand it is because I failed to take note of it. So, if you are in the area and want some spot on, delicious food, you need to stop at Dish. You will not be disappointed. Thank you, Sarah, for the service with a smile and definitely Martine for the suggestion.

I went to Dish with a friend for Sunday brunch. I ordered the breakfast burrito. My burrito was dry, overcooked, and extremely hot. The coffee was so burnt, I sent it back. The server forgot several items, like refilling our waters and some extras I requested. Prices did not reflect the quality of food. Bathrooms were small and icky. The location is great, however.

My favorite restaurant for special occasions. Thursday jazz night is wonderful!
Lasagna and wild mushroom risotto are amazing. For brunch try the quiche.

They could be so much better. I'm all about supporting local. The atmosphere is very cozy, but they seem disorganized. It's a great location. They need better service and management, and checking in with customers. We went for dinner. They forgot things in our order, but did bring them when asked.

Very friendly & inviting environment!
It is December just prior to Christmas and of all the visits my friends and I have made to dine at Dish,
This was the absolute BEST meal of all time here. Very fresh! Each different entree prepared to perfection! Dish is always dependable, but each of us commented on how good each entree was this time.We felt that the wait staff person truly needed help, but she managed quite well considering that she was all alone. Might have been change of shifts.

The service was good and Laura was great! The potatoes where not cooked and when we requested new ones they brought cold ones. Laura did her best to get through potatoes corrected. The manger came and said he was going to take the potatoes off the bill for the inconvenience however, he is to busy with the parties he has here. The bill still has the potatoes on them a full price. Nothing worse then a lying manger with no intentions of making the experience pleasurable for all guests. Very disappointed in the manger. Thank you Laura for doing the best you can with the incompetent Mangement.
Decided to go back for my yearly pumpkin pancakes and today was not a disappointment. I met my friend and we both got the small stack although they were a little smaller than they usually are they were still delicious. We always get the butter and the cinnamon whipped cream on the side . The service was great. The coffee was good and strong. The atmosphere gives you that sitting in the kitchen in the morning, having coffee 10 out of 10 would recommend the pumpkin pancakes and a cup of coffee.

We had a good experience at dish after a visit to Descanso Gardens. The staff was very friendly and accommodating and the food was good enough. It's a large restaurant, so even though it was packed and Mother's Day, we were seated fairly quickly without a reservation.

The coffee was good enough could've been a little bit stronger. (Full disclosure I need to super strong coffee to live.)

My kid wasn't that friendly and just had fries what she thought were good enough. I had the Florentine Quiche (though our server miss heard me initially and brought Florentine Benedict to start. That was quickly replaced with what I had asked for) the quiche was perfectly prepared. Nice and fluffy key should be. Potatoes on the side. Could've used a little bit more seasoning did the job the potatoes are supposed to do.

My wife had a Florentine Benedict without the English muffin as she is gluten-free. She thought it was good, but would've appreciated more gluten-free bread options.

You can see the local appeal of a restaurant like this with lots of breakfast options, I mean stay when you want classic foods. If we lived in La Canada, I'm sure we'd be there often enough.

New favorite restaurant and waitress (Polina rocks!). Ordered the $50 unlimited starters and got to try a little bit of everything.

Tuna, corn and Brussels were top tier, wish I had room for more. The smoked cocktail was also next level.
