- KKarlaLos Angeles •3 reviews5.0Dined 3 days agoOur family of six, all adults, dined here for our Christmas meal. The staff was welcoming and attentive without being intrusive. Our server was knowledgeable about the menu, offered great recommendations, and ensured we had everything we needed. The attention to detail was impressive, from the warm greeting at the door to the genuine smiles throughout the evening. Every dish we ordered was delicious. We started with the chorizos plate then five of us moved on to various steaks and one had spinach ravioli. We rounded out our meal with sides of sauteed spinach and mashed potatoes. It was all so good. Whether you're celebrating a special occasion or simply enjoying a night out, Malbec is a great choice. This wasn't our first time here and won't be our last.More infoMalbec - PasadenaPrice: Moderate• Argentinean• Pasadena•4.7
