Roy's Restaurant - Pasadena.

So, my girlfriend Allie and I BARELY made it before the 6:30 cut-off time for happy (Aloha) hour at Roy's Restaurant in Pasadena.

Even if we didn't make it before the cut-off, we could have probably skipped Roy's and gone to the Grilled Cheese Truck next door.  Some day I will try you, GCT! 

Well, for $5 an item (specific cocktails, wines, beers, sushi, and other appetizers), I was very pleased with what we ate.  We shared a tempura ahi roll, and it reminded me of my favorite roll back at Tomodachi Sushi in Westwood.  I miss going to UCLA :(


We both got the wagyu beef sliders because come on, how can you resist when they come with sweet potato fries on the side!  They were surprisingly good, but quite small.  Thankfully that + the sushi filled us up perfectly.


I also got the mai tai, which was okay.  I'm not a big alcohol drinker anyway (one shot wonder/cheap date), so I probably wouldn't get it again.  It was just a bit too strong in every sense for me.
