Message from the Business
A tasty Old Pasadena Kitchen, Bakery, & Lounge is offering fine Italian cooking and freshly baked breads that put Mi Piace on the culinary map. Fresh pastas, coupled with imported parmesan cheese, a choice of seafood, delivered fresh daily, and mouth watering entrees such as our luscious homemade baked lasagna which has been deemed "perfection on a plate". Portions are generous, prices are moderate. The desserts are devine from Mi Piace's own Pasadena Baking Company - the "best this side of La Brea". The new stylish martini lounge, with dozens of martinis listed on the menu is the place for dining a experience to be non stop party. Award of Excellence 2001-2004 by "Wine Spectator" Outdoor Dining adds to the appeal of Mi Piace. - as quoted by Merrill Shindler, San Gabriel Valley Newspapers, Jan 04.
