Tried The Nook Breakfast Spot for the first time. Located on PCH in Lomita in large plaza that has Cold Stone Creamery next door, Dollar Tree and Grocery Outlet in the same. Plenty of parking on a Sunday morning. We were warmly welcomed in by the staff and given our choice to sit anywhere. They were moderately busy with customers dining in and outside. Whenever having breakfast somewhere new to me, I like to try a basic breakfast of scrambled eggs, bacon, potatoes, and a starch. Since they offer homemade biscuts, decided to give that a try. Hubby chose the green chilaquiles plate and OJ. He said it was about 3.5 stars. My plate looked and tasted good however I was surprised that the 2 eggs appeared to be 1 egg. The server was OK with getting another egg. Overall, my plate was about 3.5 stars. The service is kind and welcoming. Their soundtrack is upbeat and ecclectic. They do offer lunch specials Monday through Friday from 12PM to 3PM which is their closing time. Breakfast/brunch is so competitive in the South Bay. There is a place in Torrance that the hubby and I frequent regularly and they set the bar high. (You can probably guess what place that is from my regularly posted photos from there.) Overall, the Nook is 3.5 stars from us rounded up to 4. read more

Came here for breakfast; the place was busy, but we were seated within minutes of arriving. The Nook is located facing PCH in a small shopping center with plenty of parking. We all ordered different Skillets, Instead of writing about each one, I will say that all five of us were satisfied and thought they were all good. The Nook has what you like. I will point out that the skillets are not black cast iron; they come in white porcelain, shaped like a skillet but looking more like a plate. We did order Strawberry pancakes, which we shared. Service from the waitress was lacking, I believe it was the b owner he came several times to check on us. Nice place and will be back . read more

Finally got to try this spot out as it's been on mh to try list for ages. It's in a huge shopping plaza so there's ample amount of parking. We got one right in the front :) There's inside seating and outside but we opted to sit outside as it was a bit stuffy inside. We ordered the shredded beef southwest skillet and marinated steak eggs Benedict and I def recommend the steak Benedict's over the skillet as the skillet came out with a skillet shaped glass plate and also the shredded beef portion was tiny and dry and the house potato on the bottom is covered with the same sauce. So for $2 more you get steak. I'm glad my wife chose that (the waitress recommended that over the sweet breakfast) Overall: food was decent and am glad another place crossed off my list. Now on the the next spot on my list. 3.5 stars! read more

This is the 3rd time I've been here and the food and service were amazing both times! They have an outdoor patio I was able to bring my dog. I also love that they have turkey sausage options since I don't eat pork. read more

I found the Nook Breakfast Spot while looking for breakfast near me. The original place we were going to was closed so TNBS came in clutch. I ordered the marinated steak Benedict with home fries. All I can say is delicious! My sister ordered strawberry banana pancakes breakfast and she really liked it. Service was great and the prices were reasonable. They give you a lot of food so it definitely worth it. There's plenty of parking in the parking lot. They have indoor and outdoor seating. We opted to sit inside at a booth. This is a great place for a breakfast/brunch date or a place where you can take your family. read more

This place has become one of our favorite places for both of us for breakfast or brunch. This was our first visit to the Nook Breakfast Spot. Conveniently located on PCH and Narbonne this restaurant is only open until 3 PM every day serving up breakfast lunch items and brunch items. The service is fantastic the coffee is delicious. I always Judge a breakfast place by its coffee. The ambience is that of a small diner. By looking around, this seems to be a lot of regulars that come to this place. We look forward to be coming one of those regulars. read more

Coming here with family was such a successful breakfast experience. The food was delicious and filling as their portions are actually large. Good for take home food! There was a slight wait upon our arrive but understandable due to them having great reviews! We patiently waited. Only reason I left one star off is due to being a little confused where to go upon arrival. I felt a little lost and wasn't sure where to check in at. We were greeted later and was able to sit and wait for our table. read more

Really want like this place but after my last experience, it was kinda hard. Service is good,outdoor patios nice ,but the food was just kind of a mess. Their biscuits and gravy are the best in the biz for sure but the other stuff I ordered that day was just mid at best .. The marinade steak and eggs was good but the steak was a cheap cut and honestly it was chewy everything else we had that day was decent but nothing to write home about I'd probably give her another shot, but I wouldn't rush back read more

I dined here while I was in the area. I ordered the basic Popeye omelet with fruit and hash browns, which was pretty good. Hash browns were a little too well done than I normally get but overall ok. The service was good. The owner and his employees were very kind and professional. Cool atmosphere. They have outdoor and indoor seating. read more

Our food was fresh, hot and delicious for the most part. The only thing we were disappointed on is the 'original' eggs Benedict came with sliced ham, luncheon meat. Menu says 'Canadian bacon', so thats what we were expecting. Maybe they ran out ‍ I can say on the positive note that the hollindaise sauce was delish! Try them out for yourself, we did go on a week day and there was no waiting for a table. I've read others reviews that on weekends it's much busier. Mahalo for the great service & food read more

The food was good, I enjoyed my meal but wow, when I saw the menu I couldn't believe omelette cost $20. I ordered basic eggs & turkey sausage with potatoes and flour tortillas. And of course coffee. They were very nice, everyone had a warm vibe and when I walked in the gentleman was very welcoming. I got the impression it was a locals favorite. Everyone was very nice, not just the staff! read more

T as in terrible service. Waited over 30 minutes for our food. I found out at the end of the meal they only had one chef in the kitchen.I was given a 2 dollar discount. The food consisted of a lunch special called the half sandwich combo. I chose turkey with rye bread and a garden salad instead of the soup. It was presented to me with overly toasted bread. Hard to even cut with a knife. I put some of the salad dressing in it to make it easier to eat. The turkey was really chewy. Not good. I proceed to eat my salad and at the bottom of the bowl is a lot of water. A soggy mess. However the other entree which was a senior country special was great. It included the biscuit and gravy. sausage patty, one egg, and has browns. A good deal for the price. Food was hot. All in all they just didn't cut the mustard! read more

True to its name, this is a great spot for breakfast! The tall windows allow the morning sun to shine throughout the space. The room is generally utilitarian with basic chair and table pairings and a little bit of artistry in the maps on the walls. Food was a little hit and miss. I have eaten there twice, with my preferences being for the healthy burrito and the less healthy chorizo scramble. Service was good as well. Nothing to complain about there. read more

Came on a Saturday around 10am and we were able to immediately sit which was nice because I was anticipating a long wait for Saturday brunch rush. It started to get busy right after we sat. Our server was very sweet and quick! The manager looked super attentive and was constantly helping out tables and cleaning which is always nice to see. We got our food quick! The hash browns were a little under salted, but never a problem. I got the eggs Benedict with steak. It was so good! The sauce was amazing! My husband got the steak and eggs and he cleaned his plate! He loved it! It wasn't expensive. I'd say it's pretty reasonably priced for the portion you get. Definitely will be back again! read more

There's nothing like good old-fashioned biscuits and gravy--especially when the biscuit is warm, fluffy, and buttery enough to shine even under a generous blanket of creamy sausage gravy. The gravy here hits that perfect balance: rich but not too heavy, studded with savory bits of sausage, and so satisfying that all it needs is a dash of your favorite hot sauce to finish it off. I've been to The Nook before, and the biscuits and gravy were outstanding. I came back to see if they could keep up the magic--and they absolutely did. If you're craving a comforting, Southern-style plate done right, this is your go-to place. read more

We had breakfast this morning. My husband ordered eggs, bacon and house potatoes with a tortilla while I ordered eggs, bacon and chocolate chip pancakes. Food was freshly prepared. Salsa was home made. The bacon was perfect - crisp and moist. The pancakes were light and fluffy with a little crunch on the edges. Service was pleasant and quick. Tables were clean. Prices comparable to other restaurants but quality of ingredients is exceptional. read more

The ambiance is mediocre but the food and service is solid. This is my go-to when every other place for breakfast is closed.

This is a solid choice for a breakfast spot with loads of choices. They have the most amazing biscuits and worth the calories. Service is great too. This place is a busy spot for the locals.

Was pretty busy on New Years Eve morning. We got sat quickly outside, just a bummer that they weren't able to turn the heaters on due to running out of propane. Server was wonderful and very attentive. Took our orders and food came out promptly. The kids meals were a good value and deal. They really enjoyed the pancake and also waffles with one egg and meat plates. I had the international omelet which had lots of meat inside and was great. The Nook is a good breakfast place to go to. read more

WOW!!! I'm not gonna lie. We waited a little bit longer than expected, but it was totally worth it and I will do it over and over and over and over again. I'll wait an hour for this food. It was so damn good! OMG. The corned beef hash is the best. The strawberry banana buttermilk pancakes were absolutely divine. The chorizo skillet blew the socks off my girl and I got super jealous, and I wanted to fight the owner because nobody blows the socks off my girl besides me. The gentleman that was suited and booted and wearing his Sunday's best was absolutely amazing. The customer service is so good there. read more

The food tastes way better than the photos on Yelp make it seem. The nook was my fall back plan in case the pan and hot and tot were closed. Since today is New Year's Day 2024 everything was closed. Except good ole Nook. The photos of the food on Yelp made this place seem mid, but the steak Benedict and pancakes did not disappoint. Arrived at 1pm with no wait and immediately ordered 2 coffees. They have the delight creamers that completes diner coffee. The pieces of steak in the marinated steak Benedict were so tender and moist. The hash browns were okay but i drown them in Chalulah and ketchup anyways. The eggs were.... Eggs. The pancakes were the next best thing. They smelled of vanilla from across the table. Well worth the money and convenience. read more

Food is mediocre. I asked for chorizo and eggs, and I asked a server if it was good, he said yes. I feel bad for the food he eats at home if that's good to him. Also, the manager checked us out and forgot to give us our credit card back. We had to go back to get it. The manager did not greet nor say sorry for forgetting your card. And we noticed our card was left out and exposed, So the card was grabbed and as we were walking out he decided to come out and say sorry, and acknowledged this has happened before and how they should do better. Sucks because it's the small things in business that determine where we want to give our money. And it's not this place. read more
