It’s no secret that I am a HUGE Jen Aniston fan and so NOT a fan of Brangelina – but my boyfriend did manage to drag me to see Mr. and Mrs. Smith while it was in theaters. So when I found the address of the house from the movie in my fave stalking book, I just had to stalk it. In the movie, Brad and Angie live in a really pretty white clapboard residence that reminds me a lot of the house from the movie Father of the Bride. And it just so happens that both houses are located in Pasadena.
The restaurant where Brad and Angelina dance in Mr. and Mrs. Smith is called Cicada and can be found in Downtown LA. Cicada is actually an oft used filming location – it was the very same restaurant where Julia Roberts flung an escargot across the room in the movie Pretty Woman. At the time it was known as Rex II Ristorante. Cicada was also featured in Bruce Almighty, Final Analysis and Indecent Proposal. While I have never dined there, I’ve heard that it is absolutely amazing!
Until next time, Happy Stalking! 🙂
Stalk It: The Mr. and Mrs. Smith house is located at 1565 San Pasqual Street in Pasadena. The restaurant from the movie can be found in the Oviatt Building in Downtown Los Angeles at 617 South Olive Street.
This house was also in the movie 2005’s Yours Mine and Ours. The house was used in the beginning of the movie as Frank Beardsley AKA Dennis Quaid. It only appeared once on screen. Wish you could find the pink house used as Helen North’s AKA Rene Russo.

Great info on this house, which gets blown up in the film. I’d love to know how they made it look so real that many people thought THIS house was exploded! Also nice to know about the other locations. In the story, I assume this house was somewhere near the Palisades (on the Hudson River), in either New Jersey or NY, since they show them, where Jane’s boss has his HQ.
Isn’t this area also where the house in “American Beauty” is?
