I can see why people love the Texas chilli omelette and French toast. They were of superb quality and flavour. This restaurant has a very homely feel and has been around since the 80s. A true gem to the city of Pasadena. The staff here are very friendly and attentive

We really loved the vibe of this place — it felt warm, cozy, and easy to settle into. I ordered the blackened salmon wrap and it was honestly amazing. The salmon was flavorful with just the right amount of seasoning, and everything inside the wrap tasted fresh and well balanced. It ended up being one of those meals that feels light but still really satisfying. If you’re looking for a chill spot with good energy and great food, this place is definitely worth checking out.

French toast with the cornflake coating is a cool idea it just needs flavor! Like cinnamon and vanilla extract incorporated into the mixture. Taste is pretty much not there

A fantastic breakfast/brunch option in a cozy setting. The food was delicious and well prepared. Staff are very nice and welcoming. They have both indoor and outdoor seating. The menu consists of all of the classic breakfast options. Overall a great and filling experience.

This place serves classic American food, best known for their breakfast and lunch. Their French toast is quite famous. The menu has not changed much in the last few years . My California omelette was delicious but came out really oily. The potatoes were also oily and were not evenly cooked. So sad about the quality of the food today.

Enjoyed the patio seating in the morning, was more calm and quiet having seen how crowded it was inside. I enjoyed my omelette very much. I did try a bite of the pulled pork eggs Benedict, not much flavor there.
They do have their own parking lot, but it’s very small. There is some street parking available.
Wasn’t aware of the 3% surcharge for using a credit card.

Lovely little hidden gem for breakfast dishes. The French toast is one of the best I’ve ever had. An absolute must-try.
Update: recently visited the restaurant for Sunday brunch and decided to try some non-breakfast items. We had the regular burger, the crispy chicken sandwich, and the rio grande tuna melt. They were all great. We all especially liked the refreshing side Jicama salad. I highly recommend adding the caramelized onions and chipotle peppers to the tuna melt.
I have to mention, the service was very slow. Servers were helpful and nice, just a little slow. We had to wait quite a while even though there weren’t many customers at the restaurant.

We had breakfast here and it was delicious! I had a California omelette and my fiancé had the brisket and eggs. Paired it with a yummy mimosa! it was so good. Everything is fresh. I highly recommend this restaurant!

Definitely one of the most popular breakfast restaurants in all of Pasadena. It’s very laid-back and you feel as if you are eating inside someone’s home. The wait times are never as long here as some other restaurants close by but also it’s not the best option in town. Russell‘s, a few blocks away, is the best breakfast in Pasadena in my opinion, but Marston’s is still worth visiting. They have an extremely tiny and narrow parking lot with free parking otherwise it will be street parking. They have a fairly large menu filled with a lot of good options and our server was very polite. Inside is not very large and just has table seating, there is not a counter.
The food here is good, but not great. For my first visit I chose the special – Crab Cake Benedict and thought it was just OK. The crabcakes did not have as much flavor as I had recently and I really did not enjoy the side of potatoes. I would suggest offering hashbrowns instead. I also felt it was a bit overpriced for what we got in return and honestly I don’t think I would visit again given the other breakfast options close by.
