Great Food  4 Star Rating - Very good

High quality food, excellent service, food a bit pricey but you get a lot for your money. Location is great, I like sitting on the patio.
Great place for lunch.

great food and service  4 Star Rating - Very good

my mom and i went here after i had a long day. we went early (around 5) so i guess we missed the dinner rush and we received great service. we split the steak sandwich and fries which was plenty of food for both of us. it was very tasty-- a little too much fat on it though which we had to cut off.

Confused about the Crocodile  2 Star Rating - Wouldn't recommend

My husband and I had a rather rotten time at Crocodile, alas! A good friend recommended this restaurant, saying food and service were great. Perhaps we hit the spot on an off night, but service was slow and uncertain. My husband's meatloaf was undercooked (truly pink in the middle); we sent it back. When the waitress returned the plate, we realized the plate had just been microwaved (thus rendering the potatoes and vegetables spongy and inedible). In addition, the meatloaf had been "pawed" through and mushed around the plate, as if the chef had been looking for evidence of our complaint. Not to be childish, but this was truly gross. On a good note, they did not charge us for the meatloaf, and the bread IS warm and delicious.

PROS: Warm, delicious bread. Good house salad.
CONS: Slow, inconsistent service; uncooked food.

Great Garlic Mashed Potatoes  4 Star Rating - Very good

The food here is always good, but my favorite thing on the menu is the garlic mashed potatoes. Be prepared for service that is a little slow because the restaurant is so popular.

The original Croc is the best  4 Star Rating - Very good

The original croc on Lake Ave. in pasadena is my favorite of the other locations they have. A nice atmosphere, though the service is usually mediocre. The daily ravioli special is an all time fave of mine, and I usually order it. The pizzas are also good comingout of the brick oven. An overall good meal especially at lunch time sitting outside and people watching.

Great Food  4 Star Rating - Very good

They serve the best bread and BBQ chicken pizza. The atmosphere is great also. You sit on the patio on Lake Ave at this location. It's a nice lunch date place.

A local chain  4 Star Rating - Very good

This is a chain local to the area. They have excellent salads and sandwiches, and the bread they serve before your meal is always hot, with just enough butter.
The prices aren't too bad either. It costs enough to be considered a nice meal if you were treating somebody, but cheap enough to still be affordable.
