About this restaurant

  • Innovative
  • Romantic
  • Neighborhood gem
Bone Kettle, a Southeast Asian kitchen serving bone broth and culturally-inspired creative small plates, is a polished yet casual concept located in Pasadena. As the executive chef and co-owner of Komodo, Erwin Tjahyadi was inspired by his recent travels across Southeast Asia to create an entirely new concept showcasing the rich tastes and flavors of his explorations abroad. Through 36 hours of boiling, Bone Kettle’s bone broth is made using traditional cooking techniques and fresh, ethnic ingredients reflective of Asian culture. Bone Kettle brings a new frontier of Asian dining to the Pasadena community, with a simplistic yet bold menu that entices any foodie with a hankering for an authentic dining experience.

    For all the hype, I was very disappointed. We went for lunch. The noodle soup was ok but not great. The ox tails were served separately and difficult to eat - a lot of work to get the small bits of meat. My friend got a fried rice dish that she thought was "meh". I might give it another try before dismissing it entirely.

    I really want this food to be more interesting and memorable than it is. The broth should be amazing, but it’s nothing out of the ordinary in the LA area. There is more flavorful broth within walking distance of this restaurant. Appetizers are overpriced and not delicious, and the servers push them hard to upsell you. I’ve given the place three shots and all I really remember is the pushy service. It’s just not that great, and I’m not sure what all the fuss is about.

    The Oxtail dumplings and oxtail noodles were fantastic. The bone marrow was bland.

    We enjoyed everything from service to food to ambiance!! Their specialty is the bone broth noodle but there is also a vegetarian option for non-meat eaters. The menu is mostly South East Asian influenced as well as creative Asian fusion. Definitely a must try when you're out and about in Old Town!
