Yummy duck pandan waffle and salted egg shrimp! Rendang omelette was lightly spiced / not as tasty. Noodle soup w chicken was comforting and flavor was on the lighter side too. Service felt a little pushy – kept asking if we were done when we were clearly still working on our food.

We had a private event in the back room, and the dinner was absolutely to die for. The pancit, prawns, green beans, bone broth, fried rice, and pandan crème brûlée were the standouts. And the price was absolutely incredible. We will be back often.

Super disappointed. My friend and I were deciding between Ozawa and The Bone Kettle, and clearly we chose the wrong restaurant. It just wasn’t our thing.

The beef patty and the sauce were pretty salty. My friend ordered their signature bone broth, and surprisingly, the noodles were instant noodles . Will not come back!!!!

Plenty of Asian fusion choices on the menu. The service is good and timely. The atmosphere is good and not disruptively loud. My beef is stewed well. Be ready for the service charge fee

Bone Kettle: A Flavor-Packed Gem in Pasadena

From the moment we stepped into Bone Kettle, we knew we were in for something special. The ambiance strikes a perfect balance, sleek, modern, and warm with attentive staff who make you feel like a regular even on your first visit.

But let’s talk about the food. The star of the show? Their legendary broth slow-simmered for 36 hours, rich, silky, and layered with flavor. Every spoonful feels like a masterclass in depth and technique.

Every dish is beautifully plated and thoughtfully prepared, showcasing Southeast Asian flavors with a refined twist. The appetizers are equally impressive, and the craft cocktails hold their own alongside the bold cuisine.

Prices are fair for the quality, and portions are satisfying without overwhelming. You can tell the team here takes real pride in their work.

Bone Kettle isn’t just a meal, it’s an experience. Highly recommend for date nights, foodies, or anyone who wants to taste something extraordinary in the heart of Pasadena.

the service was truly abysmal. I did not see my server for at least 15 minutes. that was the first and last time I saw her (when she took my order). My husband and I’s cocktail came after the third dish came out…At least they were both delicious, albeit a touch too sweet.

The first two dishes we had (beet salad & oxtail dumplings) were great and I was excited for the menu. The third dish (sisig) was extremely disappointing; the flavours were rudimentary at best, and felt thrown together. It felt closer to a dish I would expect at Denny’s, not at a highly regarded restaurant. The last dish we ordered, the seafood char kway teow, was just alright. Again, the flavours felt half-baked and were one dimensional. I expected much more developed flavours, simply because I know it’s possible. I’ve had southeast asian cuisine that excels beyond bone kettle, for less money.

The food is only alright to good, and it is very expensive for what you get. Would not recommend even trying this restaurant due to the completely unacceptably poor service.

Good food and excellent service!
The fusion of Asian flavor and traditional western flare was blended nicely.
My Pistachio latte was delicious and I was hoping for latte art bc that’s the norm now. lol
Street or structure parking

Bone Kettle was absolutely amazing! I hosted a corporate group of 40+ guests, and their team was professional, attentive, and genuinely kind from start to finish.

The food was plentiful, delicious, and beautifully presented — and they thoughtfully accommodated all of our dietary restrictions without missing a beat. We were given a spacious private room that allowed our team to engage comfortably and freely, which made a huge difference for our event.

I truly can’t thank the staff enough. Special kudos to Eric and Thea, who were incredibly easy to coordinate with and ensured everything ran seamlessly.

If you’re in the Pasadena area, this restaurant should absolutely be at the top of your list.

Thanks again from all of us at Rinse, Inc.!

The food was made well but nothing jumped out as amazing. The broth is what they are known for and it lives up to the 36hrs of work they put into it. The garlic prawns were a great share plate. The lunch combo was worth its price.

Hosted a birthday brunch here for a group of 20 and it was an incredible experience. It was prix fixe menu that I got to tailor and all my friends left incredibly happy with the food. Worth the price and great service and atmosphere as well!
