La perle du quartier

Bar Chelou is Pasadena’s first true neo-bistro, a casual, convivial space that is both a distillation of Chef Doug Rankin's broad gastronomic interests and a deeply personal expression of his individualistic style.

'Chelou' (French slang for ‘strange’ or ‘unexpected’) is both the name and unifying theme of the restaurant, which draws from a range of culinary traditions and service styles to create something personal, novel, and fun.

The restaurant is located within the Pasadena Playhouse complex. If you plan to visit the Playhouse after dinner, please book a 5:30p reservation to ensure ample timing for your dinner. We also offer concession cocktails before a showing and during intermission.

NEED TO KNOW
Wine corkage is $30 per 750ml bottle with no limit; we do not offer corkage for wines featured on our wine list.

Ample parking is available on surrounding streets and at several paid lots within a one-block radius.

Gift cards are available for purchase on our website.

The restaurant is gorgeous, the staff is welcoming, and all the dishes we had knocked it out of the park. We had the potatoes (perfectly done), carrots, hamachi crudo, and lamb ribs. I really hope this place is here to stay after the rotating ones there previously.

Bar Chelou is one of my favorite places to dine. The food is absolutely delicious and the ambiance is perfection. However, our waitress seemed uninterested in our experience and at times annoyed—we had to repeat requests multiple times and eventually turned to other staff for basics like water and napkins. Despite this, everything else about the restaurant is outstanding. 9/10

Presentation and food items excellent. Steak Tartare is not on a lot of menus. This was most different and best tastes plus the seasoned flat bread served with it excellent. Our server was informative about wine and food. Had not been back to restaurant for a while and will go back sooner.

The food was phenomenal - it’s refreshing to see a restaurant pay attention to their vegetable offerings. The crispy potatoes were out of this world and is one of my favorite potato dishes ever! The rainbow trout was also delicious and I savored every bite! Our server was awesome and helped make the night feel special.
