50 Best Fast Food Restaurants in Torrance

“The people here are so sweet and so understanding. I had an order that a mistake was made on and they literally fixed it within minutes, AND gave me my original order for free. This is the best Dave’s I’ve ever been to, take this from a Torrance Native!“

“Very great customer service. Fela was amazing super sweet and showed me how to use my points. Very clean. My food was served fast, but taste pretty great comparing to other Carl’s Jr I’ve been before. Food was warm!!!! I will come back to this location instead.“

“By far the best Chick-Fil-A in the area! I just love the welcoming atmosphere, the staff seems so happy and the food just tastes better! During the shut-down, this became our go to for breakfast and lunch for me while I was at work.“

“the burgers and the fresh house made onion rings and fresh ice tea.“

“very good tasting food also clean dinning room restroom are clean as well polite staff“

“Muy rico recomendado para toda la familia“

“Great chilli dogs and fries. Surprisingly good ice cream. Very reasonably priced for fast food and drive in lane is normally fast They also offer senior discounts And don't forgot the classic polish sandwich“

“I went through the Drive Thru and the person in front of me paid for my order. I went ahead and paid for the person behind me. I’m wondering how many paid it forward today.“

“If you want fresh-tasting fast food, Chick-fil-A is always a good option. The chicken sandwiches are always delicious, with a juicy interior and a crispy exterior. Another favorite is the waffle fries, especially when they are hot and nicely seasoned.“

“I don't eat red meat anymore but when I did I ate at In & Out Burgers and their food and french fries are really really good. Highly recommend! 😊😊“

“me encanta la comida y un buen servisio limpio“

“Not knowing LA has Red Rock and I've been wanting to try this place for like forever. Seeing one of my friends posting it and got uberly excited that it's available here. Tons of the reviews mentioned great things about it as well, so no wonder when we reached on Saturday lunch time, there were around 5 people on the wait list. It fortunately moved relatively quickly especially as we're willing to take counter seat and there were only 2 of us. The venue did have decent amount of seats, but certainly would be tougher for bigger group.

Their signature dish was certainly the Sliced Beef Don, yep that one that looked like Volcano. We got it with extra raw egg topping. Along side, we got extra Chicken Kaarage. The beef was juicy and tender, but the flavor itself mostly was on the rice given the sauce was more mixed into the rice. It was luscious, but probably I set too high of expectation that I wasn't like blown away. In fact, the kaarage got me hooked more with unique batter coating and super juicy chicken. For the prize, the portion was pretty generous and I could confidently say that if I came back, I would doubtlessly order this again.“

“Great Burgers and an Awesome Crew Member

My go-to, fast food burgers have been at Carl’s for years because they taste great. Although they are also consistently prepared well at other Carl’s stores I’ve been to, what makes this one special at 24010 Hawthorne Boulevard is an employee named Maria.

She is there on Saturdays when I often take my mom for our burger fix. Besides moving quickly and being efficient, she’s always very friendly. Plus, she remembers our preferences from previous visits. For example, when I order a single drink, she always hands me two straws, knowing my mom and I will share it.

I was especially impressed with her one day when their computer system for the registers went down. When I pulled into the drive-thru to order, she said through the speaker that they could not give any receipts and asked if that was okay. I said sure, and she took my order. When I pulled up to the window to pay and get my food, she had already used a calculator to total my order manually. This gal kept the store open and kept taking orders even as the company computer system was down! Wow! This kind of dedication is rare, and she should be commended by someone at the Carl’s corporate level for all she does. From me as a customer… Thank you, Maria!“

“Stopped here on the way to the Chargers game for some pregame food. The drive thru line moved very quickly and all the workers were very polite and friendly. We ordered Spicy chicken sandwiches and chicken strips. Both were perfectly prepared and really delicious. This location is definitely a five star experience with both the delicious food and great service.“

“I ordered the fish and chips plate and they were perfect. 4 generous portions of fish and the fries were fantastic. Each one was super chrispy.“

“Good place to stop 🛑 if you’re in a hurry and want a meal. Love the Ruben dog they have delicious!“

“Love the Beef & Cheddar sandwich and the curly fries at Arby's! I have a question, though - do you (the Torrance store) honor the scannable coupons sent by Arby's corporate? We've had experiences at the Long Beach Arby's where they said they don't honor those (but they "made an exception" for us. Awkward :/“

“It's nice and clean. Food was great, peaceful and quiet no issues except for the waiting time. There was only 3 guys of us in there that time we all waited was at least 25 minutes each!. I'm no genius, but I don't think it takes 15-20 minutes to make a burger... Mind YOU!, we all coincidentally ordered the same burger combo... Go figure.“

“Food is really good , all this time around the area and never have I ever ate here. Today I decided to try it since my wife said she wanted some Chinese food, the quality of the food is really good from their age chicken, to beef broccoli, teriyaki chicken, spicy orange chicken, chicken veggie roles , I’m definitely going back. The quantity of the food is ok 3/5 he can serve more and the price is normal , about 13$ per plate. But I recommend.“

“Their organic tofu bowl is delicious. Veggies cooked just right. Consistent quality, I get takeout from this location a couple times a week when I need something healthy and satisfying. Chicken and beef bowls also delicious. Great low key neighborhood lunch spot with a few tables for dining in, clean and welcoming. Closed Sundays.

Vegetarian options: Organic tofu, fresh veggies (carrot, cabbage, broccoli), brown rice. Mini bowls available.“

“My new favorite spot for breakfast date. Our go to order B.L.T.A sandwich and some spicy tenders. That combo is just (chef's kiss). Usually go in the morning, always clean, food is so good. They make it when you order it, by the time you bring it to your table it is still steaming. Love it. This location is 5 stars. We have tried El Segundo location but it doesn't compare at all. Torrance location is the OG.“

“I've been to plenty of fast-food restaurants, but this Wendy's consistently stands out because of how well it's run. Whether I'm stopping by for breakfast, lunch, or just grabbing a quick snack, the experience is always reliable and enjoyable.

The biggest difference is the staff. Everyone seems genuinely friendly, hardworking, and focused on providing great service. Even during busy times, the team works efficiently to keep things moving, and orders are prepared surprisingly fast. On the rare occasions there's a long drive-thru line, it never seems to take very long because the employees are incredibly organized.

The food is another reason I keep coming back. Everything tastes fresh, hot, and made correctly. It's clear that the staff takes pride in maintaining quality, which isn't always the case at every fast-food location. Consistency is important, and this restaurant delivers it every time.

The location itself is clean, modern, and well maintained. The dining area is comfortable and inviting, and the drive-thru is spacious enough to accommodate larger vehicles without any issues. It's easy to see why so many locals choose this location regularly. Great service, fresh food, and an overall welcoming atmosphere make this one of the best Wendy's restaurants I've visited.“

“Five Guys makes *the* best hamburger in the country. There’s nothing, absolutely NOTHING better than Five Guys when it comes to burgers. This particular branch is the closest to us and I am loving it. It is clean and well staffed. We placed our order and received our food in 15 mins tops. My kid enjoyed making a drawing and putting it up in the board. We are absolutely committed to coming back and becoming regulars.“

“Friendly staff. Went out of way to assist people. I also saw the team leader or manager working with his team and he was respectful and motivational with them. A big Beal for me.

Vegetarian options: Yes a stuffed mushroom burger and a veggie burger

Dietary restrictions: Let th know up front. Very willing to accommodate. I’m a vegetarian so I get it.

Parking: It’s a mall so easy parking

Kid-friendliness: Mall great for kids

Wheelchair accessibility: Mall food court very accessible“

“Food is awesome. Love the chicken fingers“

“La comida esta fresca. Sus empleados son amables.“

“Very good Quality fresh products“

“I’m visiting from Charlotte and I wish we had one in North Carolina“

“M encanta los desayunos y su amable personal todo muy limpio y el cafe es lo mas rico“

“Brother Daniel
Was such a helpful respectful polite individual with very welcoming attitude and attention to detail .
He was very happy to serve me and had a humble yet eager to serve demeanor great atmosphere and clean environment.

I give the location a ten 10 star rating it was very clean in the restaurant ,and the food was quick fresh made to order ..

I believe Daniel deserves a raise and a promotion.“

“Let's go Steve! This place is actually pretty good, it's got a wide variety of breakfast foods, dinners, lunches, tacos and burritos, omelets and fries, salads, really good chili and so much more! The service is pretty fast, and the portion sizes are pretty big. Definitely a place I would come back to. Everything we tried was filling and definitely worth it. There's plenty of parking, and lots of seating inside. I would highly recommend, especially for a lunchtime meal.
10/10 will go again, pretty good pastrami“

“This is the best POPEYES around. Forget going to Carson or the one on Hawthorne ! The cashiers always help you get the best deals. 2 of them are my favorites and they deserve a raise. Most of the times customers come back for food, but sometimes customer choose to come back because they like the feeling of being welcomed and treated with respect. Nowadays everyone in fast foods have this grouchy face no smiles. I don't mind spending $20 for a meal for myself when I know my food was made and packaged with love 🤗“

“It's silly someone would leave anything under a 5 star review for this Taco Bell. The staff is excited to serve, atmosphere is fresh, and food is handled with care. Sure, Taco Bell's all serve the same food for the most part, but this location separates itself from the rest with customer experience. Daniel & the team call us by our names when we enter. This team differentiates itself with quality service. Will always be returning.“

“Loved it my food was warm was done fast clara was at the window she was very helpful and nice she helped me with learning how to use my app since i didnt know what i had to show her to earn points she was very helpful nice and patient with me loved the customer service come to the carls jr totally recommend and they are open 24/7 also the fries were super fresh“

“Great food and very clean.“

“This is a great concept for a takeout restaurant with prepared meals. I got the cilantro rice, spicy black beans, a buddha bowl with tofu, and honey spicy sweet potatoes for a great price. Some items were 25% off because they were going out of date the next day, but they lasted in my fridge, and still tasted fresh, for 3 days. They also have meat entrees, but I really appreciated their vegan options. The only reason I didn't give Everytable five stars is because they use more oil than I prefer. The food is yummy, but wish they'd use less oil, at least on the vegan dishes. And, the service was helpful, especially for my first time there. The location in Torrance has a small area with tables and chairs and they will heat up your food, if you prefer your meal warm.“

“I was in drive thru and had a difficult order and they got it right! ❤️“

“Good tasting food n nice people. I had the 4.99 double hamb While my wife had the egg rolls. Very good.“

“Been going there since i was a kid . I love the remodel“

“I had such a great experience at this Carl’s Jr! Manuela went above and beyond with her service—she was friendly, fast, and made me feel truly welcome. You don’t always get that kind of warm, genuine customer service at a fast-food spot, but she really stood out. My order was fresh, accurate, and came out super quick. Manuela made the visit so much better with her positive attitude and professionalism. Thank you, Manuela, for turning a simple meal into an awesome experience!“

“Been going to Yogi for a long time. It's a great place for a simple healthy meal. Honestly, lots of times when I don't know what to eat or just don't have time to prepare I'll head over to Yogi's for a meal.

Small parking lot, but I've never seen this lot full so it's nice and easy. Service is quick and the staff is always very friendly and accommodating to requests. The place is small and but enough sitting and very clean.

Call me basic or predictable, but I'll always get their chicken veggie plate with sauce on the side. Eat the chicken and rice with your preferred amount of teriyaki sauce and chili and it's a satisfying meal. The veggies are well prepared, not overly cooked at all. It's a very balanced meal and usually with the plate, I'll have some for another meal.

Great place for teriyaki meals in the South Bay“

“Issac’s service has been above and beyond. He ensures my order is correct, he makes genuine conversation with me, and he makes me feel like a valued customer. Thank you Issac for showing that hospitality is not dead! Keep up the great work!“

“This is becoming my go to restaurant when working in town. The restaurant is always clean. Service is the best. Definitely exceeds the Chick-fil-A standard. The food is always fresh and served fast, both dine in and take out. Great job, Chick-fil-A!“

“Friendly Staff, but.... they only have an 80% chance of getting the order correct. Lack of focus and a lot going at once here for some. But it's all good. I get to try things I would never order, so I'm expanding my sandwich knowledge“

“This is one of the Best and fastest Wendy's I have ever been to. No Wendy's in Georgia compares to this one. The food is hot and fresh, the vegetables on the burgers are the freshest I ever tasted. It's clean inside and all the employees are top notch, they are all so nice and friendly. Can't wait to get a craving for Wendy's again. The employees are very courteous and nice. The A rating should be A+++, it's very clean and the workers get out your orders the fastest I have ever seen. Keep all the workers because they make a great team.“

“Superb service. Love your coupons“

“OMS (sandwich)! This TOGOs is the best. I haven't been to TOGOs for years. The selection is awesome. Service with a smile! And the sandwich-builders were knowledgeable and helpful. In Torrance, corner of Hawthorne and Del Amo. On my face list. Try the Beef Dip and Turkey and Avocado! Amazing.“

“Dah BOMB GEAHHH 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥“

“Direct you to an ordering device and my special order was not there. If you add items they charge, if deduct items they don't reduce the bill. So if you want more beans and less rice it will cost you. Loved the bowl. Very tasty and rice with beans makes it high protein.“

“This is the 2nd place I've been that all staffs are friendly and helpful to customers. Giving an excellent customer service and no discrimination. They respect everyone! If there's 10 stars available, I can give it to them. Keep it up! Thank you!“
