The Guisados team has landed another location, this time in Pasadena at the site of the former Doña Rosa at 577 S. Arroyo Parkway. This one is not only larger than some of the more recent Guisados to open around Los Angeles (there are currently seven in all), it also comes with one big caveat: Just like Dear John’s in Culver City, the building is set to be demolished soon, so the restaurant won’t last forever. Co-owner Armando de la Torre Jr. tells Eater that there’s no timetable for opening or for closing just yet, but paperwork has been filed to begin construction. The restaurant sits just up the street from some other big names, from Lucky Boy to Superba Snacks + Coffee, and an incoming Shake Shack and second location of Howlin’ Ray’s.
