As part of my duties as PositivelyCelebrity.com’s resident Hot Spot expert, I decided to check out a new place in Pasadena that’s been getting a lot of buzz.

Noor. 260 East Colorado Blvd. Pasadena, CA 91101

Not only is Noor home to two indoor ballrooms and two outdoor spaces that can accommodate large parties and host events, but it’s also a plush bar with unique cocktails and tapas style food. Gracious owner, Robert Shahnazarian was my host of the evening and gave Positively Celebrity a tour of Noor, sharing all they have to offer.

“In addition to hosting large events such as corporate, social and non-profit events, we have an amazing Mediterranean fusion restaurant that features a revolving menu of small plate items to compliment or signature mixology drinks and wines. Our restaurant features a gorgeous terrace with city views along with weekly entertainment and a stellar Happy Hour,” said Shahnazarian.

Although the old Hollywood charm of Noor’s impressive ballrooms caught my eye, it was the Pineapple Jalapeno martini that really knocked me off my feet. It’s a menu must-try next time you find yourself in Pasadena.

The menu also currently features items like Mediterranean brochetta with tomatoes, olives and herbs, mushroom ravioli topped with a lemon butter chive sauce, ahi tuna cakes, and grilled beef brochettes. However, since the menu is based on fresh, seasonal food from local farmer’s markets, don’t be surprised if you see the food change from week to week.

Interested? Check our Noor for yourself at happy hour (Tuesdays-Sunday from 4 PM – 7 PM). For a live jazz band, visit on a Wednesday night and if you’re looking for a more lively scene, stop by on Thursday night which features a live DJ.  For more info, check out their website.
