    Tuna melt

    (Facepalm.) The food was good, but everything else was a disappointment. The floors were sticky, the tables were dirty, and the service was honestly terrible. Managers, please get a grip on this. NORMS is too good of a restaurant to let standards slip this badly. We were seated at a table and waited 10 minutes without so much as a greeting or a drink order. WTF? We finally moved ourselves to the bar area, hoping for better service. Unfortunately, that area was just as dirty and sticky, and we still waited far too long before anyone took our order. While we were waiting, I overheard one employee tell another that we had moved because no one had served us. The response? "I'm too busy." Really? Be busy serving your customers. When our food finally arrived, we didn't even receive the proper utensils to eat it. I asked for a wet napkin because my hands were sticky from the table, and... nothing. No wet napkin ever came. The food is still what keeps me coming back, but the cleanliness and service have gone downhill. Management needs to step in before loyal customers decide it's not worth coming back.

    Service is not very friendly at this location One particular server I visited late night w/ family after our concert & my sister in-law noticed the negative /rudeness from the male server who took our order. Working with customers most likely isn't his best asset! Food was great

    5 stars because I'm nostalgic and grew up with Norm's in Torrance. I have always loved Norms. Christmas Eve morning we had a terrific breakfast, Olivia was our server. She was great. Food - Four Deuces for $8.99! Yes, please! Everything cooked as expected, good. Classic Eggs Benedict $13.99, good as well. Eggs perfect. Coffee is how it is supposed to taste, not Starbucks crap. Delicious at $3.99.

    Lovely

    Food was good but I miss getting a side salad instead of fries etc with my sandwich. They were a bit understaffed for a Friday evening but our waitress was very polite. Restaurant was clean and had some awesome Gen X music. Please bring back side salad as an option. Not everyone wants a starch, some like salad.

    Norms, always open. Girlfriend suggested Norms for dinner so we came in. She ordered the porterhouse steak and eggs with pancakes. I went with French toast and added eggs and bacon. My meal was good. Unfortunately my girlfriend's steak was overcooked. She ordered it medium but it came out well done. Service was good, server took our drink orders, returning for our food orders and checked on us a couple of times while we were eating, refilled our drinks, etc.

    Once upon a time, back to Norm's! Thank you for serving breakfast all day! This faerie Queen came in hangry and left a much kinder human with food in her belly. The end.

    Been a minute since my last Four Duces!

    I was here with my in-laws and had a great breakfast and experience. Norm's typically does a great job and today was just that; a great experience. My wife and I shared the Four Duces with home style potatoes and an order of pancakes. Everything was perfect and while we shared, it was more than we could eat. The service was great and it was packed so we kind of crammed into a booth.

Walking inside, it definitely gives off that classic, old-school diner vibe. We were seated right away since it wasn't too busy at the time. The menu is huge, almost overwhelming, so it took us a minute to decide what to order. We kept it simple and went with the traditional pancakes, eggs, and bacon, plus a California burger. The portions were decent, but overall, the food quality was just okay. Nothing terrible, just not particularly memorable, it had a bit of that "cheap" taste to it. That said, the service really stood out. Our server was kind and patient, especially while dealing with my little one being a bit of a handful, which I definitely appreciated. Overall, I'd say it's a solid option if you're looking for a late-night sit-down spot and want to avoid fast food. While I personally wouldn't go out of my way to come back, it wasn't a bad experience. 4 stars, mainly for the friendly service, even though the food didn't quite hit for me.

Food is your average american breakfast like dennys and ihop, but I will say that the portions are a smudge more generous. You get what you order, but taste is nothing super memorable.

Our waitress, though I forgot her name, was exceptional. She greeted us when we sat at the table and gave us some good recommendations on what to try. I had the chilaquiles verdes with carne asada and they were really good! I don't usually have green chilaquiles but these were excellent. The salsa had the right amount of flavor in it paired with some potatoes and beans. I also felt it was a very big portion of food, especially for what we paid. I would say I definitely want to come back to try some of the other items on the menu here. The menu was massive with so many different things to try and it all looked really good.

Although there is parking in the front, it's very limited. We later found there is much more convenient parking in the back, which I definitely recommend using. As soon as you walk in, you can tell it's a family-owned, mom-and-pop restaurant. Even though the dining area is small, it feels warm, welcoming, and comfortable. It also seems to be a favorite among the locals, which is always a good sign. The service was excellent. The staff frequently checked on us, kept our water glasses full, and happily accommodated my fiancée's special request for her meal. The food was fantastic. My fiancée ordered the Wet Burrito without the cheese on top. It came with chips, and even though they were in the sauce, they somehow stayed crispy throughout the meal. She loved every bite. I ordered the chicken and waffles with whipped cream and strawberries. The chicken was fried to perfection--crispy on the outside, juicy on the inside, and well-seasoned throughout without being overly breaded. The waffles were delicious and paired perfectly with the toppings. We also shared a biscuit with gravy. The biscuit was soft, fluffy, and moist enough that it honestly didn't even need the gravy. That said, the gravy was rich, flavorful, and not overly salty, making it a great complement. Overall, we had a wonderful experience. The food, service, and atmosphere all exceeded our expectations. I highly recommend giving this place a try--and don't forget to park in the back!

We tried: * Iced Latte Flight: Horchata, Abuelita, Pistachio, and Mazapan * Hot Mazapan Latte * Mimosa Flight * Mole Chilaquiles * Birria Benedict * Huevos Rancheros * The Journey Pancakes The Hot Mazapan Latte was our favorite coffee and something I would absolutely order again. The iced flight was also a great way to sample several of their flavors without having to commit to just one. For food, the Birria Benedict was the standout and easily our favorite dish. I loved the Mexican-inspired spin on a brunch classic, and the rich birria paired so well with the eggs and Benedict preparation. We also really enjoyed getting a mix of savory dishes with the Mole Chilaquiles and Huevos Rancheros before finishing with The Journey Pancakes for something sweet. Overall, Madres Brunch offers a huge variety of creative food and drinks, especially if you enjoy Mexican flavors and fun twists on traditional brunch. Definitely a place where I recommend coming hungry and ordering several things to share! Excellent service, as well.
