Other restaurants will say their food is fresh… but we know ours is, because we just picked it from our backyard Organic Garden this morning 😌

Today’s harvest from the Parkway Grill gourmet garden highlights vibrant butternut squash and delicate squash blossoms picked at peak freshness. The naturally sweet butternut squash is slowly roasted to deepen its rich flavor before being blended into a velvety soup. The garden’s squash blossoms are lightly stuffed, delicately fried, and paired with heirloom tomatoes, prosciutto, mozzarella, burrata, pistachios, and a balsamic reduction for a fresh interpretation of classic.

This weekend, Parkway Grill is showcasing something genuinely rare: the Pinkglow pineapple, a vibrant blush-hued fruit grown in Costa Rica.
Unlike traditional golden pineapples, this variety develops its rosy color naturally through selective cultivation. The result is a fruit that’s slightly less acidic, exceptionally aromatic, and delicately sweet—with a smooth, almost candy-like finish and very low fiber. It’s grown in limited quantities, hand-harvested, and carefully packed to preserve both its flavor and striking appearance.
The inspiration came from Bob Smith, during some recent time spent in Costa Rica, he encountered this extraordinary fruit at its source. The Smith Brothers wanted to bring this special pineapple to Parkway Grill to share with our guests — so you, too, can experience this unique fruit.
Chef Martin has thoughtfully paired this tropical delicacy in a salad with arugula, shaved fennel, radicchio, pistachios, feta, and a honey Dijon orange blossom dressing.

Our Braised Lamb Shank returns today and tomorrow: slow cooked until fork-tender, served with rosemary garlic roast potatoes, mint butter, and olives.
This dish carries a bit of history for us. The recipe was first developed during a special guest chef appearance by Jeremiah Tower at Parkway Grill years ago. We’ve honored that foundation ever since—slow-braised, deeply savory, and built for a lingering evening at the table.
Available today and tomorrow only. Reserve your table and enjoy something special!

What people say
Parkway Grill is a true gem in Pasadena, offering a unique and innovative approach to American cuisine since 1984. Their commitment to using fresh, seasonal ingredients is evident in every dish, and their own organic vegetable and herb garden behind the restaurant is a testament to their dedication to quality. The Tiki Salad, Brick-Oven Baked Cambozola Pear Flat Bread, and Whole Ginger Fried Catfish are all long-time favorites that never disappoint. The design of the Parkway Grill is equally impressive, with elegant paintings by Millard Sheets adorning the brick walls and an expansive bar serving up hand-crafted cocktails. And let's not forget about their award-winning wine cellar, which boasts upwards of three thousand bottles and includes a broad selection of wines served by the glass. It's no wonder Parkway Grill has been recognized as "One of America's Top Table" - it truly is a must-visit destination for any foodie in the area.
