A visit to Robin’s, part 1
Sep 6th, 2007 by Jill
During the heat wave, we went to Robin’s.
Gavin played Ms. Pacman.
We found Aaron’s name on the menu. And Steve Haderlein’s name. And Paul Little’s name.
I wish I had an inflatable beer bottle.
(To go with our inflatable Godzilla.)
Robin was there, and he came over and said hi. By then my camera was put away and I was eating my salad and some of Gavin’s ribs, and I was also feeling a little star struck, so I didn’t get a picture.

I like Robin’s. Been there a couple of times, its one of the stopping points when we are in that area of Pasadena. The burgers are good, the ribs are pretty awesome. I still think Jake’s Roadhouse in Monrovia is the standard for BBQ ribs and such is the one to beat. Just my 2 cents.
Best restaurant in Pasadena.
That Steve Haderlein burger is pretty sexy.

I heard that Robin was the creative genius behind Jakes Roadhouse and that the owner was Robin’s chef for many years. I guess they say that imitation is the most sincere form of flattery. All kidding aside, they both have good ribs, but I’ll give the nod to Robin’s. I love Aaron’s Patty Melt. Been eating it for years, many before Aaron claimed it. Great restaurant, great music and a great vibe. Maybe he’ll name something after Gavin or the bloggers. I doubt that you’ll see a Steve Madison burger.
The Steve Madison Burger would just be an empty plate.
