Eye Nosh: El Portal in Pasadena

El Portal is a popular Mexican restaurant specializing in Yucatán-influenced food. Oh damn, that guacamole looks good right now. They are located on Green Street within Pasadena's Playhouse District. LAist Featured Photos contributor pink_fish13 ate their last month and tempted us with these photos.

that looks great! i work down the street. i WILL be going... :)

 

I was just there this weekend. Great mango margaritas and albondigas soup.

 

i live in pasadena, so i go here often.
the vegetarian burrito hits the spot :)
chips and salsa are good, but no one can
beat el cholo on fair oaks.

 

This place is like a lot like el cholo on fair oaks. And in my opinion thats not really a good thing.

 

Interesting side note: Yahaira's Cafe is a breakfast/lunch place in the same center and owned by El Portal. It's a fabulous place for brunch on the weekends. Great food and wonderful service!
