You don't get that smile when you walk in anymore and it looks like the lady behind the counter is being put out because you're ordering something. I used to drive from Redondo over to here just to get ribs. Last time I had rib tips here, they were mostly bone. Even diner's, drive- ins, and dives, picture of Guy Fieri is gone. I don't think he would have proved of this current version. I don't even know when they're open anymore. I just drove by at 6:55 and I guess they close at 7 but literally no cars were there so they must have lit out much earlier. Sad. The plane is dusty and looking old. Miss the old version very much.

It's been a few years since I last visited JB's and it was sad to see how run down the exterior of the building was. My visit was around 12:30 PM on a Saturday and there were no other customers. With that in mind, I think the ribs that were served to me were probably leftovers from Friday or Thursday because all though they peeled off the bone ok, they were dry as Bee Jerkey!! Even though they were dry as hell, I still ate them. On the other hand, my girlfriend took two bites and called it quits. So sad to see a BBQ restaurant that used to be so good be so BAD.

Teriyaki places are common, like a Yen a dozen. But I am intentionally writing about this place…read morebecause it is a fast casual Teriyaki place that delivers above the line of common. On my last visit Alberto- one of its workers- delivered more than, maybe, I deserved. I needed to use the bathroom, I needed to eat- I was in starvation central- and I was, in general, in a rush. In my mind every second mattered. Any delay to my day's agenda was like a dagger to my productivity. I am sure most people have experienced this feeling--- the feeling of urgency that is only reduced when the world and all its people and varied moving components unify to support what one wants. But rarely does the globe begin working like clockwork for just one person, especially when that person is in a self-prescribed time crunch. But on this day Alberto and the other workers of Charki's kind-of unified for little ol' me. I got there three minutes early. They open at 11:00 a.m. and I got there at 10:57 a.m. I have been in these situations before, a place does not open till they should. so I knew I had to wait, regardless of my needs and urgencies. Plus, they might have felt that those three minutes mattered them, not only per set opening time, but those minutes might have provided them the time needed to get their frying oil to the correct temperature. Or those three minutes would have gotten their own mind ready for the day, or they just didn't feel like opening minutes early, which is valid. Case in point, someone can wake up three minutes before their alarm rings or they can decide to stay in bed for an additional three minutes because those three extra minutes under the covers are more than great, they are treasured ticks belonging to me and no on else. On this day, instead of owning their three minutes and keeping me waiting, Alberto opened early. I know I did not get early access to Bergdorfs on Black Friday, but someone someone gave up three minutes that were theirs and that feels like a gum drop sea parted when I wanted no sweets, only carrot sticks. I made a beeline for the bathroom. I was given a key attached to a ladle that looked line one of those backscratchers. Before I entered I ordered their teriyaki plate. I came out, my food was ready soon, and I could continue completing tasks as I ate. The plate was well composed, a nice bulging green salad, Salmon teriyaki that did not taste coastal fresh but for the price point held its own just fine, and two nice and big scoops of sticky white rice. The food is solid, plentiful, and easy to enjoy. As I left, I realized I left the key inside the bathroom and now it was locked. I apologized to another staff member and instead of giving me a grimace or a sigh, I was just told don't worry. I am not sure how they fixed my faux pa, they could had a spare, I know they did not call a locksmith, but I appreciated that I was not made to feel bad over my error caused by my rush. The experienced felt like a ballet company was moving to support my day's agenda, when ticks mattered most. And like I said above, that feeling is just great!

But this morning, the Peach Cobbler Pancakes were calling my name, and I knew I had to give it a shot. I am so glad I did. ​The Atmosphere & Vibe ​I arrived to find the parking lot wasn't full yet--a relief, since that lot can get tight. Walking in, I was greeted by a clean establishment and the smooth sounds of soul music playing in the background. ​The customer service was top-tier: friendly, inviting, and genuinely ready to assist. It's the kind of welcome that makes you want to come back before you've even tasted the food. ​Note: Heads up for the "cash is king" crowd--they do not accept cash as a form of payment here. ​The Food (The Main Event) ​I placed a takeout order, and once I got home and indulged, I was pleasantly surprised. Much respect to the cook; the flavors were spot on. ​The Staples: I ordered the pork chops, scrambled eggs (with onion and green onion), rice and gravy, and potatoes and gravy. Let me tell you--the gravy was graving and the pork chop was choppin'. ​The Showstopper: Those Peach Cobbler Pancakes? They were absolutely hittin'. They were so good I'm convinced someone needs to make me a full peach cobbler pie now. ​The Verdict ​Granddaddy's is serving up seriously flavorful food. My only concern is the physical setup; I wish the location was better equipped to handle the large customer base they are definitely going to attract once word gets out. ​Flavorful food brings customers, and Granddaddy's has that in spades. Wishing this business much success--you've definitely earned a fan in me!

If you live in or near the Gardena area it's worth a try…read more The restaurant is small but very neat and exceptionally clean. Customer service was excellent. When you walk in the door you place your order on a large screen and pay on screen before sitting down. The staff came over to us as soon as we arrived, asked if this was our first time there (which it was) and explained how to order. I ordered scrambled eggs hard, grits, wingettes and a waffle. Everything was cooked to order hot and fresh. The grits were good but you definitely have to season them with salt as they have no seasoning at all. I'm sure that's on purpose so you can season to taste. What I found lacking with the grits was the butter. We had to ask for butter. The chicken was good but slightly salty for me. Although the waffle had a good flavor and was cooked well it has a lot of cinnamon. The waffle was so brown it looked like a wheat waffle. I'm not fond of that much cinnamon. My hubby had grits, catfish, eggs over medium potatoes and a biscuit. He said everything was good and seasoned well except for the grits. His grits also needed butter. Overall it was a good experience. I'm always eager to support small businesses.

Taqueria El Taco Loco really hit me with a wave of nostalgia. I stopped by for breakfast because I…read morewas craving chilaquiles, and I walked out feeling like I had just eaten at my grandmother's table. My plate was loaded, the kind of generous, no‑nonsense serving that tells you they cook with heart, not shortcuts. Every bite had that strictly authentic, home‑style flavor that reminded me of family, childhood mornings, and my grandma throwing down in the kitchen. The spot itself is super casual, eat in or take out, nothing fancy, nothing trying too hard. But honestly, the food and the service are the only "decor" this place needs. If you're craving something real, comforting, and made with love, this taqueria delivers. Miguel C.

Restaurant is surprisingly spacious inside despite looking very inconspicuous from the outside. The…read moreparking lot isn't too big, but I've never had issues with parking since the other shops around aren't too busy. We normally call ahead to order our food, and it'll take roughly 10 - 15 minutes. Service is always solid - the workers are friendly and helpful. We normally get the carne asada/pollo fries and they're awesome. Fries are cooked perfectly (I swear there was a period of time where they coated the fries and that wasn't it, but thankfully they stopped), comes with the usual toppings like guacamole, onions, cilantro, etc. They top it with a hefty amount of juicy meat - both carne asada and pollo options are solid. Recently though I've been straying from fries and getting different dishes like the chicken flautas, enchiladas, and mulitas. Chefs kiss for each one. The rice and beans + salsa combo are also flavorful and pair nicely with the entree.
