145 Palmetto Drive Pasadena, California 91105
It was over ninety-five years ago that Jesucita Mijares fled the revolution in Mexico
searching for a new life for her family. After settling in Pasadena, she opened a small tortilla
factory. It quickly became known for its tiny restaurant featuring Jesucita’s original recipes,
tortillas, tamales and sauces made with her metate stone grinder carried from Mexico.
Today, Mijares Mexican Restaurant is Pasadena’s oldest and finest Mexican restaurant
known for its authentic regional and traditional cuisine, famous margaritas and festive patio
dining.
And, Mijares remains a family tradition under the care of the Mijares family. This
legacy is a tribute to Jesucita Mijares, who passed away in early 1988. Always the gracious
hostess, Jesucita’s motto remains - “Mi casa es su casa!”
We hope you will enjoy Mijares, Bienvenidos...and welcome to Mijares!
