THE GREAT AMERICAN TAKE-OUT
Supporting Local Businesses Throughout South Lake
|
With the evolving coronavirus situation, we realize that times are difficult for the entire community. Many of our local businesses are offering new options in place of dine-in services. To make things easier, the City of Pasadena and Pasadena Convention & Visitors Bureau have compiled a list of locations around Pasadena that are offering to-go orders, curbside pickup, delivery, and online ordering. In an additional effort to support local businesses, parking spaces shall be temporarily converted to 20-minute parking to facilitate delivery and curbside pick-up of food from restaurants. Individuals looking to park long-term should park in parking garages and walk to their destination.
To view a list of active South Lake Avenue restaurants and businesses or learn to the status of specific businesses within the South Lake Avenue Business District, please visit

Pasadena’s Safer at Home Order is consistent with the Orders issued by the State of California and the County of Los Angeles. The general purpose of these unified orders is to limit individual in-person contact with other members of the public to control spread of the Novel Corona Virus (COVID-19), and the city of Pasadena has done their best to be as clear as possible about what is permissible and what is not. They are not in a position to provide personal guidance for all situations, but they will continue to update the website when questions with broad application apply. Please stay home as you can and limit your contact with others!
