4worldlovers: An iconic neighborhood gathering spot, La Grande Orange Pasadena is housed in the historic 1934 Del Mar Train Station, restored to bring back the original charm of the building. The stepping-off point for the stars of Hollywood’s golden age like Clark Gable, Mae West and Will Rogers, the bustling “culinary campus,” includes The LGO Cafe, Luggage Room Pizzeria & the Otis Bar.

A regionally inspired take on Californian classics is what you’ll find on our menu. We let quality ingredients do the heavy lifting, including fresh produce from the local farmers market and LGO Reserve Beef—one of the only restaurant brands to receive its own private label USDA certification.


We keep it simple here, so everyone can find a bite to enjoy — but it’s always thoughtful. Emphasizing the natural flavor, texture and freshness of supreme ingredients, is our simple and clean cooking philosophy. Favorites include our taco platters, fresh fish, fresh salads and sandwiches, all day breakfast, Authentic Georgia Crispy Chicken, and our award-winning pizza – both genuine fermented dough and LA’s best gluten free crust. Indoor and outdoor patio dining is offered throughout the “culinary campus.”

Voted Best outdoor dining throughout Los Angeles, we have three patios from which to choose—the Café, Luggage Room

Welcome to the Otis Bar, your home away from home for food, cocktails, music and friends. Overlooking the historic Del Mar Train Station, from the décor to the tunes, the throwback vibe sets the perfect ambience for enjoying the signature cocktails, draft beers and an amazing wine selection on offer.

The Luggage Room was once, in fact, an actual luggage room in the original Del Mar Train Station, where Golden Age movie stars left their bags during their journey to and from Hollywood. While we’ve honored the original architecture of the space, those stacks of suitcases have been replaced by a wood burning brick oven, where we’ve created some of California’s best pizza since 2010.

4worldlovers: Please note that we offer a limited number of online and phone reservations each day.
