    Inside
    Alicia W.

    Finally, I was able to try the pan! It's always busy and people outside so I don't even bother to wait lol but I came for my birthday and I enjoyed the food . So many options to choose from and I will come back again . The inside reminds me of the burger joints you see on tv . The staff was friendly and the place was clean.

    I recently came down to Long Beach to visit a friend, and we decided to have brunch at The Pan. The restaurant has a really cute, classic diner feel inside, and the atmosphere was warm and welcoming. The service was friendly and attentive throughout our visit. There was about a 30 minute wait since they don't take reservations, but it was definitely worth it. Everyone in our group enjoyed their meals, and no one had any issues with their food. I ordered the stuffed French toast, and it was absolutely amazing...easily one of the best brunch items I've had in a long time. Everything was fresh, flavorful, and well-prepared. Overall, I had a great experience and would definitely come back the next time I'm in the area. 10/10 recommend!

    This place literally has it all! Great service, food, cleanliness, stiff drinks and bingo. We are definitely coming back.

    Ambiance: Very colorful, designed like a mom & pop breakfast spot. Service: I was disappointed with the service provided, our waitress was nice but she failed to come check on our party. We literally had to get up to find her. In addition, she let our plates pile up and forgot items that we ordered. Food: All pancakes were dry and hard to cut. Omelette was not seasoned, however the orange juice was freshly squeezed, and the fried battered chicken was delicious! I may give The Pan another try.

    The vibes in here are so cute. I really enjoyed the Beach aesthetics and they even had bingo so we got to play as we were finishing our meal it was so fun. The customer service was excellent. Very attentive and friendly. The food was so delicious. The chilaquiles were soooo good. I was very impressed. The French toast was alright, not sure I would get it again. We also got pizza to go and the sauce was saucing. Definitely recommend this place!

    The Lumber jack  Shrimp n grits
    Tiffy W.

    I give this place a 10/10, and here's why. The Pan is officially one of my new favorite local breakfast spots. I've been looking for a good American-style breakfast place with a Southern touch, and this place absolutely delivered. First off, parking is easy because they have their own lot, already a win in Long Beach. The inside has a modern rustic diner vibe that feels cozy, clean, spacious, and welcoming without feeling overcrowded. I went on a Saturday morning around 9:30 AM, and although it was busy, the wait wasn't bad at all. The staff was friendly, attentive, and knowledgeable about the menu. I ordered the vanilla latte and the shrimp and grits, and let me just say... the shrimp and grits were . Creamy, cheesy, flavorful, perfectly seasoned, and the portion size was generous enough for leftovers. Definitely some of the best shrimp and grits I've had locally. My cousin ordered the Lumberjack Special which comes with pancakes, sausage, eggs n potatoes but he upgraded his pancakes to one of the specialty pancakes; chocolate chip pancakes, which was an available option for a small upcharge. Overall, great food, great vibe, reasonable prices, and family-friendly. I'll definitely be back, this might become my regular breakfast spot.

    The "Original" Loaded Hash Browns
    Leilani R.

    Located on Del Amo Blvd and Long Beach Blvd, this location is quite popular and was crowded when I visited - Wednesday mid-morning. There is a parking lot behind the restaurant that unfortunately was full which required us to wait 5 or so mins for someone to leave. Our party of 3 had a 30min wait for a table so we opted to sit at the counter. We were greeted right away with menus from our server. She took our drink and food order right away and our items were actually delivered in a timely manner. We chose The Lumberjack ($20) which comes with two buttermilk pancakes, two eggs any style, two bacon strips, two sausages, and house potatoes. You do have the option to upgrade to a specialty pancake or waffle for an additional $2. Portions are generous and everything was cooked perfectly, including the over-easy eggs. We opted for hash browns instead of house potatoes. Hash browns were crispy and what I really appreciated was the bacon was cooked thoroughly - no fatty pieces like how a lot of other places serve. The PANCAKES, oh my goodness! They are SO. FRICKEN. DELICIOUS. They were fluffy, buttery, and just the right amount of sweetness - these are a must try! Two pancakes and a scoop of butter - my absolute favorite item of the whole meal. We also chose the "Original" Loaded Hash Browns ($18) which is two eggs any style served on top of hash browns, bacon, sausage, and sprinkled with jack and cheddar cheese and topped with sour cream, green onions, and thennnnn, drizzled with chili aioli. Greasy, meaty, goodness! It is a lot of food for the price so make sure to come hungry. Overall, this place is quite popular as I remember like 8 or so years ago they only had like one location in Gardena and now we're up to 5! Service wasn't great at the end. We never were checked on by our initial server who took our order after the food was delivered and we waited 10 or so mins once we were done eating to get a to-go box and our check. I had to get up and approach the service area to finally close out my bill. I do know that every place in every type of industry (food, hospitality, hospitals, etc.) are understaffed but what I didn't like was there were other staff members standing around. IMO, they could circulate and fill in gaps with service - such as, clearing tables, refilling beverages, asking if tables needed anything - things to help out the servers! Delicious food options but don't visit if you're in a rush!

    Pastrami Fries
    Criss N.

    The wait here was quite long even on a weekday afternoon. The party in front of us actually spoke to the manager because the hostess was quite rude and dismissive to him regarding the wait and any information about that.  Once I got sat and actually ate, it was your standard kitschy brunch spot. What I got: Pastrami Fries, Biscuits and Gravy, Loaded Hashbrowns. Everything was fine. Again, it looks and tastes like every other brunch spot in California. I don;t really like breakfast/brunch food like that, but it really was just fine.  I'm assuming that you could get similar levels of food for less of a wait at other places, so I would probably just recommend your favorite local diner. This was good if you have a bit of time to kill with your party. Nothing special though.

    Lupes Chilaquiles
    Ron P.

    It was a busy Saturday morning and it was packed but the wait was about 30 mins. This place is huge and busy but service was excellent with fast turnovers. Me and my wife ordered the short rib benedict which was delicious, the chilaquiles was just as good and their cinnamon roll pancakes was too sweet for our taste. I will definitely try other food items in their menu.

    Shrimp N' Grits
    Thyda S.

    Food came out quickly and delicious! Service was great! Nice and clean! Would bring my fam back here for sure!

    The Havana Pizza 12"
    Christanne C.

    Did an online order for pickup on a Sunday. It was packed inside. They sent me a text saying it was now ready. That was much earlier than expected. Was expecting everything to be all good. Food was much better this time... But they forgot an order, so we had to come back. They actually forgot to make the pizza in the first place. Will I be back? No. Would I recommend? The food is good, not great, so probably not.

    Eggs
    Brandon F.

    Came here for breakfast. Service was fast after we were seated. Great selection of items. Sever was great. The restaurant has a great cafe vibe. I will definitely be back here

    The pastrami sandwich with egg and cheese
    Vera M.

    To begin with The Pan has a delicious two egg breakfast, two bacons,a slice of toast,hashbrowns or potatoes for a whopping $16, absolutely overpriced! With serving only two pieces bacon. This is just my opinion and experience with plenty of breakfast spots. The shrimp and grits are very good,and you do get a healthy portion, but for 20 plus dollars,it does not come with any breads at all,but you have the option of ordering separately at an additional cost! The ambiance is bright and refreshing,restrooms clean,and plenty of parking in lot(formly the Sizzler). I happen to attend on a Monday evening for bingo it was really fun! I won twice that evening, your first card is complimentary with a $10 purchase of something,thereafter,the cards are $5 per game. You get to spend a winners wheel for lots of prizes, including cash! Now I ordered a pastrami sandwich,and when I tell you it was disgusting, it was awful,the meat was fried to a crisp,I thought it would be steamed pastrami meat(my bad)! It also came with grilled onions,if you happen to go for onions on your pastrami sandwich. I chose sweet potato fries,which tasted like they were cooked in meat grease! Just horrible! I will never order that again! Will I return and try other items from the menu,yes, the pastrami sandwich just isn't the right choice for me, you may like it lol! With that being said let me know you guys thoughts on it when you go!

We ended up ordering the fondue for the app (24.00) which comes with bite size pieces of bread and diced apples. It was ok, a little too runny and had an interesting hint of beer flavor. Next up we both ordered the brie & prosciutto sandwich which came with a side of au gratin and greens. The sandwich was excellent but the potatoes were cold. We ended our meal sharing creme brulee for dessert. It was good but also served cold. Total bill incl tip: 163.00 bucks (double ouch)! Overall, meal and service was good, but I would forego the wine on a future visit as it was way overpriced for the brand we got as well as the cheese fondue. Will definitely be back though. Very comfy and charming atmosphere.

The menu has a ton of really detailed options, each drink with its own depth. The menu changes seasonally but what doesn't change is the smoked old fashioned - a must-order. They smoke your drink in a glass container using applewood chips; it's quite a show and it also does make the drink much more enjoyable. Ask the bartender and they can also help guide you to a drink - I've done it a couple of times and always pleasantly surprised. Next up, the food! The hummus was very flavorful and paired with an amazing fluffy pita bread. The truffle fries were solid but the plate was HUGE, definitely needs a friend to share. The Nashville wings are the star of the show. I cannot stress this enough, this is worth a DRIVE for. The seasoning really does remind you of Howlin' Rays (the highest compliment) and the chicken is extremely crispy yet insanely juicy. The pickles and ranch that it comes with pairs so well. Do note that they are tossing it in pork fat, which enhances the depth but also makes it a little greasy at the end. I also wished they'd warn you this and offer to order it without it; especially for those who don't eat pork or for those trying to cut some calories. There's a happy hour menu too!!! So you can get drinks and food even cheaper. I cannot stop thinking about this place. It's such a sleeper. Head to Midnight Oil after a visit to continue your night.

I'd rate the staff around a 4. Based on the food I had, the kitchen lands closer to a 2.5 to 3. Fine if you're already in the hotel and want something casual, but not an amazing choice for the fried seafood.
