“The food and service is great. Mama Bear is very friendly and warm. She knows all her customers. I believe that she has a lot to do with returning and satisfied customers.Parking: At peak times the parking can be challenging. However, there are times that I can find parking immediately.“
“I recently dined at Urban Plates in Torrance, CA, and I must say, the experience was nothing short of phenomenal. From the moment I walked in, the ambiance enveloped me in a warm and inviting atmosphere that promised a delightful dining experience. However, what truly set this visit apart was the extraordinary service provided by our server, Danny.Danny was the epitome of professionalism mixed with genuine care and attentiveness. Not only did he make expert recommendations that catered perfectly to our taste preferences, but he also went above and beyond to ensure that every aspect of our meal was to our liking. His attention to detail was impeccable, and his friendly demeanor added a special touch to our evening.The food, as always, was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. Urban Plates' commitment to quality and sustainability is evident in every bite. But it was Danny's exceptional service that transformed our meal into an unforgettable experience. His dedication to exceeding customer expectations is a rare find, and it's servers like him that make Urban Plates stand out in the bustling culinary scene of Torrance.I am incredibly thankful for Danny's outstanding service and cannot recommend Urban Plates in Torrance, CA, highly enough. If you're looking for a dining experience that combines delicious food with exceptional service, look no further. Be sure to ask for Danny, and you'll be in for a treat!“
“We have gone there with big parties of over 20 people and have been able to reserve and get great service. The food is really good. They have pretty good options for pastries. Pies and cakes. During the fall they have pumpkin pancakes, which are super yummy. It is clean and updatedGreat breakfast or brunch spotHappy ChompingKid-friendliness: Kids menu availableWheelchair accessibility: No stairs and easy maneuver“
“Thanks for the excellent service, as always! Great fast food! Largest portions of fries, onion rings, and fried zucchini I've ever had! The 4 percent charge for not using cash has got to go! Was charged an extra dollar and some change when I used my debit card, that is unacceptable!“
“I was looking for a place with a good organic salad for delivery and The Local Kitchen popped up. Wow! My honey and I were amazingly surprised on the flavor of the food and quality of ingredients. We ordered the Erika's strawberry blue salad, lemon herbed chicken and the grilled prime flat iron steak. The meat was cooked perfectly. We loved the mashed potatoes and wonderful asparagus. The salad was crisp and colorful. We're looking forward to visiting the tavern in the near future. The Local Kitchen has been added to our favorites' list!“
“An old fashioned diner without the old fashioned prices and greasiness but you get what you pay for here at Nordstrom Bazille and that includes quality service and well executed dishes that satisfy those old fashioned cravings like the Tomato Basil Soup, Turkey/Bacon/Avocado Club and Fried Chicken Sandwich.......Yum!!'“
“The food is always made with love and care. This is by far the best dennys that I have been too. The servers are fast on their feet, the food is made quickly and warm, and lastly the place is well maintaned.I would recommend this spot to everyone :) Quality!“
“Walked in and immediately saw familiar faces. Amazing service, as soon as I sat at the bar, I was assisted, and even though I was early for happy hour, they still honored the prices. Food was SO GOOD. I recommend the Korean BBQ wings and parm fries. Fries were crispy and just enough parm sauce on top, garnished with a blend of herbs. Karaoke started just as I was leaving, but I could easily stay and have a great time doing that. Best local Tavern, in my opinion.Parking: There are tons of parking options right out front.“
“I've never had a meal I didn't love here at Norms on Hawthorne Blvd in Redondo Beach. And who doesn't love their prices? You have to try their Thrifty ice cream. Oh so good! I downloaded their App and earned a free breakfast and two for one Mac & Cheese. Now I'm earning points for all their deliciousness!“
“Just an all around cute hidden cafe. The portions are great for the prices, the service is always friendly, and I've never had a bad experience here, and I'm here a few times a month.For the food, a pretty good variety, including some of the best breakfast food around this area, do stop by if you get the chance.“
“It was our first time here. The food was excellent. But the service was even better. Julia was our server along with another lady. They made sure we had everything we needed and kept our drinks full. We went to see a band. But ended up watching UFC fights on a huge TV.We will definitly be back.“
“Had the all American Burger which was outstanding, possibly the best burger in townThe pineapple mezcal margarita was also very tasty, service was great, will definitely be coming back again soon to check out the happy hour!Parking: Lots of free parking“
“I've been comin here for quite a few years and never had anythin that I didn't like...generous portions on the food...you've got to stop in and try it yourself...pool tables(2) Golf Machine game, dart board, and video machine with a variety of games on one machine, a jukebox to pick gr8 songs and a patio outside to smoke your cigarettes...what more can you ask for...And it's a Full Bar with lots of friendly ppl and 6 r 7 TVs as well...A Great Place To Watch Your Sports any day of the week you'll wish you knew of this place sooner...GG-Gail?“
“Their bread is tasty, it comes with a few types. The brown bread had sunflower seeds. The dipping sauce for the bread was great and nicely garlic-forward. The Ahi Tuna Tartare was good. It was very light, I didn't eat the wonton. There were little bits of sweet pickled peppers in the tartare, which was more ceviche style. The Baja Salad was so good. The dressing was nice and smokey, not your average restaurant chipotle. I added some ground pepper for taste.Misto's Mix Grill had unseasoned mashed potatoes. It was necessary to do something to the potatoes to make them edible. Choices were salt, pepper, and the garlic oil for the bread. They do offer sauces when serving entrees. We did not ask for any.“
“This small town restaurant is one of the best places for breakfast very comfortable atmosphere the service is great.I recommend the Hungarian omelette for breakfast it was one of the best omelets I've ever had .I absolutely recommend this restaurant for breakfast before and lunch before 2:00 pmWhat a great cup of coffee.“
“We had the pleasure of frequenting Lazy Dog Restaurant & Bar with our Kids! We had such a great time! The food was outstanding, the service was excellent and the atmosphere is very family friendly! What a great experience, We’ll be back!“
“I planned a Memorial event for my mom at the Depot in Torrance and I can't say enough about how wonderful and accommodating they were throughout the entire process, which made it easier on me to wrangle while also mourning the loss. From the first time I called Chef Michael to inquire about possibly hosting an event he was incredibly kind, empathetic and straightforward on how to arrange for an event. On the day of the event, the Kimono room was set up and clean, and when we had several unexpected guests, the staff quickly set up an extra table for them and were incredibly kind with impeccable service. The meal was family-style with a variety of things so people could pick and choose what they wanted. I didn't get to eat much of my meal as I was up and down trying to coordinate people, but I did enjoy a delicious croissant type of roll and the pumpkin or squash soup which I thought was delicious.Asit relates to events, they have easels you can use, and microphones for speaking, and the cost to host the event is solely for the food and beverage, there is no cost for the room and you have your own private space for an extended period of time. The chef also came around and spoke to guests during the luncheon which made it feel really special.I also want to call out Brett who was our main host and led the servers during the lunch who was personable, kind, patient, funny and really made the luncheon special.I appreciate the Depot and all they did to support us at this time and would 100% consider hosting another event there in the future (hopefully something unrelated to the loss of a family member.)“
“I loved, loved, loved the veggie burger here. It was NOT Beyond Beef. (I'm a vegetarian and don't like the "real" meat taste of Beyond Beef).We ate dinner here after a long stressful day of bicycle riding, with some pleasant beach trails but also scary busy streets (PCH etc.). We were really hungry and hoped for a good meal.The veggie burger, as I said, was delicious - one of the best I've had. My partner got the meat burger with cheese - also fabulous. The sweet potato fries AND the regular fries were also very very tasty! Service was great and - since we were there in the early evening - it was a quiet wonderful atmosphere. All in all, the food was high quality and we enjoyed our relaxing and tasty dinner!“
“I've lived in the South Bay all my life and never knew this place existed, sort of a little hidden jem. I had the infamous Matzo Ball soup. The broth and soup itself was delicious! The Matzo ball didn't have much flavor, and I found the texture hard to stomach. I also had the grilled ham and cheese sandwich with fries. The fries were perfectly crunchy and unsalted. The sandwich was amazing, and the bread is what made it. It had some sort of fennel seed. Service was fair but prices were too high, in my opinion.“
“I'll admit the Gram influenced my decision as I was craving Meditterranean, but the Hubs preferred Italian. So naturally, we agreed to check out Food Culture LA! (Note: there are only just a few street parking spaces up front. )From the exterior, there's an interesting mural on the wall and a long outdoor patio to the side. The inside is very clean, so we chose to eat inside. The cashier was very helpful. I ordered the Gyro Mix Plate with Gyros, Steak and Chicken,it turned out to be a really great portion. The Hubs ordered the Spaghetti Clams Alle Vongole and we both loved it!We'll definitely come back to try more!“
“Parking is a nightmare, but worth circling the parking lot a few time! Great staff, amazing food. Killer atmosphere. You all do need to figure out a solution to the drink glass condensation getting all over the table. Literally the whole table was wet after our party of 10 got their beverages.“
“It's Spires. You pretty much already know what you're getting, when going here.However, what sets this Spires out from all other Spires, and similar restaurants, is Breana <sp?>. A staffmember extradinaire.She has a professional air about her, and is eally quite smart.And, because of Breana, my family and I will be certain to make return visits.“
“Typically wouldn't leave a review for here since every time I've come it's typically nice service, the food is mostly always great as well, and well the vibe is just what you expect at a Mimi's on a Saturday morning. Saying all that, I was so impressed with the way my server was today! He was a younger guy so I figured it'll either be good or bad service. I was wrong, he was beyond good! We went with his recommendation to do the onions and peppers to our breakfast potato & it was delicious. He didn't constantly bug us while we were talking either so that was a nice feeling to not have your waiter make you feel rushed. 5 stars to whoever hired this guy, because you can tell this guy was made to move up. Great job Mimi's ! Omg the most important part our server was Edgar !“
“I had a work e ent in Torrance and wanted to grab breakfast burritos for the team. I found this spot. Wow. First, the service could not have been better and kinder. I ordered 5 breakfast burritos and watched them be made from scratch by the awesome chef. We got 3 bacon and 2 sausage. They were a huge hit. The ingredients were fresh and incredibly tasty. The only thing better was the fresh scratch salsa that went with the burritos. The shop is located on the outside of an office building. It has a great chill vibe to grab all sorts of goodness. When I'm in the South Bay, I'll be a yummy.“
“One of the best places in LA ?Cannot have another rib other than the one you tried.Order 1/2 oz for one person but it's really enough size for me to fill up the stomach and 150% satisfied.The homemade Thousand Island dressing with salad was awesome. I'd like to purchase it to bring back home.We walked in on the day without reservation at 8pm on Friday night and managed to get the table after 30mins.“
“If you haven’t already had the opportunity, this spot is a must try! Upon walking in, the ambiance was noticeably warm and inviting. After trying the Killer Shrimp appetizer, it became clear that the chefs know what they’re doing. The incredible depth of flavor was truly special with every dish. Aside from the amazing food, Madeleine and Christina left a remarkably positive impression on my experience as well. I'll definitely be back!“
“**CASH ONLY!!**I love this Fosters Freeze and it makes me happy that I still see a long line even after inflation and COVID.I always get my small vanilla with a chocolate dip cone which always hits the spot after eating at some other local restaurants within the area.I never had an issue with parking since there is a small parking lot behind the store and street parking nearby.“
“We ate a meal here for our first time and we pleasantly surprised by how good it was. My husband and always split a meal because portions are so huge, we shared a tri tip sandwich with French fries. The whole place was very energetic and we were not disappointed at all!“
