    This place was such a great breakfast find! Everything we ordered was delicious--from the crispy waffles and fluffy eggs to the loaded French toast and crepes. The portions were generous, the food came out hot, and every plate looked as good as it tasted. The service was friendly, attentive, and made us feel right at home. The atmosphere is super chill, making it the perfect spot to relax, catch up with family or friends, and enjoy a really solid breakfast without feeling rushed. If you're looking for a bomb breakfast with great service and a laid-back vibe, definitely put this place on your list. We'll absolutely be back!

    The good: I had tiramisu pancakes and the loaded Lucy burrito. I loved how many pancake options there were and how there was a kids menu. I liked the toasted brown spots on the outside of the burrito. The tiramisu pancakes weren't soggy from the soaked coffee/espresso. It had chunks of torn lady fingers on top. The interior inside is bright and fun with lots of decor items like roosters and "eat good"-type signage. They had TVs inside too but they weren't playing anything on them. The service was prompt and we got seated immediately when we came on a Monday. The bad: The blueberry lavender matcha was $8 and was too sweet. I don't think there was outside seating options. The burrito could have used more pico de gallo. It was a good burrito but not outstanding or something I'd order again. The interesting: They sell lots of drink options and lemonades from a different vendor (?) inside. They even had a mangonada!

    Ambiance: it's a corner restaurant located in a shared plaza with limited parking, the Pan's newer location in South Bay, and it's pretty packed inside Service: very friendly staff although slow in each step, it took a while to get seated and place the order, food was served fast almost as soon as ordered, and another long wait to get the bill Food: standard menu for breakfast and lunch items Carne Asada Fries - ** Fries topped with beans, carne asada, jack and cheddar cheese, guacamole aioli, sour cream and pico de gallo, served cold and soggy fries Louis Nachos Deluxe - ** Homemade chips topped with beans, white queso, sour cream, pico de gallo, avocado aioli, and green onion, very mushy texture Alexa's Loaded Quesadilla - *** Onions, peppers, and jack & cheddar cheeses in a flour tortilla, average taste Shrimp N' Grits - **** Cajun seasoned shrimp sautéed with andouille sausage, tomatoes, onions and peppers in a red pepper cream served over two eggs any style and cheesy savory grits, eggs were undercooked despite of instructions, overall savory taste, recommend Price: generous portions as always, however, overall quality went downhill here, expect $35~$40 for a very fulfilling meal with leftover

    I stopped by The Pan today on my day off with my mom, and everything we ordered was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully prepared. I had the Veggie Omelette, and it was absolutely loaded with fresh vegetables. Every bite tasted fresh, clean, and delicious. I also ordered a latte with the banana foam, and wow... that foam was nice! It was thick, creamy, and flavorful with banana flavor. I could have eaten the foam all by itself, but I mixed it into the latte with my straw. It added just the right touch of sweetness, although the banana flavor became a little more subtle once it was mixed in. My mom ordered the Veggie Omelette as well, along with the Banana Pancake as her specialty pancake. It was delicious! It was topped with fresh banana slices, walnuts, and a light dusting of powdered sugar. Such a great combination without being overly sweet. The real surprise of the visit was the fresh-made lemonade. I ordered the Paradise Lemonade with guava and passion fruit, and it was incredibly refreshing and full of flavor. It's the perfect summer drink, and I can honestly see myself stopping by just to grab one to go on a hot day. My mom tried the Havana Lemonade with strawberries. While she isn't usually a fan of tart drinks, she still enjoyed it. If you love strawberry lemonade, you'll definitely appreciate this one. It's such a fun and creative concept. Overall, we had a wonderful experience. Great food, refreshing drinks, and everything tasted fresh and thoughtfully made. I love the concept, and I'll definitely be back again soon!

    The Classic Breakfast Burrito and Waffle
    Kathy Z.

    The portions are decent for the price, and there are plenty of options on the menu - what more can you ask for out of a breakfast and brunch spot? We weren't big fans of the coffee, but otherwise enjoyed our waffle and classic breakfast burrito. I appreciated that the burrito wasn't overly greasy. The interior gave me sensory overload, but it's a considerable size and sufficiently spacious. We sat at a larger table in the back. Plenty of parking available in the lot outside of peak hours.

    Pancakes. The top pancake is a little too thick and the internals looks like there is too much moisture.

    Got "The Lumberjack" ($20.00), Unlimited Toast ($3.00) and Coffee ($3.89). I would rate the meal as just Okay. Definitely quality ingredients. The House Potatoes that were crispy were enjoyable. The non-crispy ones reminded me of eating a baked potato with skin. One of the pancakes was a little too thick (see my picture). So instead of a light texture, the pancake was a little more dense. The coffee tasted like a dark roast. Service was courteous. I went when they just opened so parking was not an issue.

    The Pan French Toast
    Hugo D.

    Finally stopped by The Pan for late-morning brunch after driving past this spot every time since it opened. The space is bright and welcoming, with a casual atmosphere. I thought it would be bigger, looking from the outside. The menu is full of different dishes: I tried the French toast with eggs and bacon. For my drink I got lemonade which I'm not a fan of but I know people would love it. Service was friendly, and though the place was busy, I got seated right away The only reason I took off a star is that some items felt a little pricey and the quantity of the eggs were not worth the price in my opinion. I'd still absolutely return, especially for the pancakes Would I recommend? Yeah -- if you're in Torrance and craving brunch done well with a laid-back vibe, The Pan is an option.

    The "Original" Loaded Hash Browns
    Chloe T.

    YUM! I love the Pan! Their food is always delicious no matter what I choose on the menu. The serving sizes are always good enough to share too, which I love! I always get the Buttermilk Fried Chicken because I really love how it pairs with their corncake & roasted red pepper cream gravy. The original loaded hashbrown is seriously one of the best Ive ever had. I'm not usually a big fan of hashbrowns but they make it so delicious because of how crispy and flavorful it is. The Cinnamon roll pancakes were okay, I feel like its missing something, but its still good! Service is always amazing. I love this specific location the most because of its layout. Can't wait to come here again soon.

    Receipt

    First and last time coming to The Pan. We waited about 35 minutes to be seated, which was already frustrating. Once we were finally seated, our experience didn't improve. One of the orange juices was brought out in a dirty cup. When we pointed it out, they brought a clean cup, but with noticeably less juice. To make matters worse, the orange juice wasn't good anyway. The food itself was decent. The French toast was probably the best part of the meal and was enjoyable. Unfortunately, the service and billing issues overshadowed the food. What really upset us was the bill. We were charged a 20% large party gratuity, even though there were only four people in our group. No one informed us of this charge beforehand, and it added about $30 to our bill. Then, when checking out, the payment screen still prompted us to leave an additional tip. The lack of transparency regarding the automatic gratuity was disappointing. Between the long wait, dirty cup, poor orange juice, and surprise service charge, this was not a great experience. We won't be returning.

    The Veggie Omelet
    Christa H.

    I have had The Pan on my list of places to try for years! This spot was not only cute but clean, as well. The staff were super friendly and helpful. I overheard someone saying the waiter recommend the hashbrowns and they were not disappointed. I got a mixture of things to split with my friends, but the breakfast burrito and banana pancakes stood out. For the breakfast burrito, I did take out the eggs and added avocado. Everything was a hit and was tasting very fresh. I'd come back!

    Chili Cheese Fries
    Brenda M.

    This location is wonderful! Good size seating area, with both tables and half booths available. Everything was cleaned and nicely set up. The staff was very kind and Abby was an absolute pleasure! While she wasn't our waitress, she did come by and helped us with some great food recommendations. I had the Short Rib Benedict and OMG! It was so delicious! She also recommended the Guava and cream pancakes, which were super yummy. Not too sweet while still keeping the pancakes nice and fluffy. Lastly we stared with an order of Chili Cheese fries that were very good. I would have it all again.

    I'm pretty sure I've reviewed The Pan before -- I've dined in, picked up, and once again this past Sunday, I placed a pickup order. I went with the Lumberjack, which comes with two pancakes, two slices of bacon, two pieces of sausage, and your choice of hashbrowns or house potatoes. I opted for all bacon and requested that it be crispy, along with crispy hashbrowns. And let me tell you -- they nailed it. The bacon was perfectly crispy, and it made me so happy. Even my toddler was in bliss! Pickup time was quoted at 20 minutes, and while it was running a little behind, I'm assuming they were just busy. From my experience, it's best to arrive about 5-10 minutes after the quoted time. I believe the quoted time is generated by Yelp, not the restaurant itself, so a little grace goes a long way. That said, a perfect order makes it all worth it! I've attached some photos along with the menu and hours of operation. I absolutely love The Pan in Torrance -- they've never let me down. The food is consistently delicious. And really, who doesn't love crispy hashbrowns, bacon, and fluffy, perfect pancakes? Definitely check them out!

    A Neapolitan Pizza Experience That Needed a Little More Quality Control…read more My mom chose Locale 90 because they specialize in Neapolitan pizza, and that caught her attention immediately. She recently returned from a trip to Italy and has been on the hunt for places around Los Angeles County that offer a more authentic Italian experience. She was especially interested because Locale 90 imports their pizza dough from Italy. This past Friday, I invited my mom down to the South Bay for an evening walk around Riviera Village in Redondo Beach. Since we were already there, I suggested we finally try Locale 90 -- and with the summer heat, being by the beach was an added bonus. We stopped in and, even though it was getting close to closing, the staff were friendly and welcoming. The host/server greeted us, let us know we could sit anywhere, and quickly brought us water, menus, and silverware. My mom had several questions about the pizza, and he was patient and helpful in explaining our options. We decided to share the Spicy Salame Pizza Rossa. When the pizza initially came out, one of the staff members noticed that the honey drizzle had been forgotten. She immediately corrected it and brought the finished pizza back out. I thought the pizza was tasty and nicely toasted, but my mom immediately noticed that the crust didn't seem right to her. Since she had just returned from Italy and specifically chose Locale 90 because of its Neapolitan pizza, she was expecting the characteristic qualities of that style: a very soft and elastic dough, a thin and tender center, and a light, airy, blistered crust around the edges. Neapolitan pizza is traditionally cooked at extremely high temperatures for a short amount of time, creating charred spots on the exterior while keeping the inside soft and flexible. Instead, she found our crust noticeably too chewy and firm, without the soft, pliable texture she expected. She even pointed out that a slice should have more of that soft, floppy quality when picked up rather than holding a firmer shape. She brought it to our server's attention after we'd had a few bites, and he agreed that the pizza hadn't been cooked properly. He offered to have the head chef remake it and explained that another employee had prepared the pizza incorrectly. I appreciated that they acknowledged the mistake and offered to correct it. Mistakes happen, and I was glad they took responsibility and attempted to make it right. However, because Neapolitan pizza has such a specific preparation and cooking method, I do think this is an area where better kitchen quality control would make a difference. If the pizza wasn't prepared according to the restaurant's intended standard, ideally it shouldn't have made it out of the kitchen in the first place.

    I've been to Locale90 a handful of times over the years and remembered it being good enough that,…read morewhen we found ourselves nearby with the family, going back seemed like an easy decision. Walking into an almost completely empty dining room while seemingly every restaurant around it was busy gave me pause, but sometimes an empty restaurant is simply good timing. We sat down hoping that was the case. There is real care behind the ingredients here. The pizza is built from the right vocabulary. 00 flour, San Marzano tomatoes, fresh mozzarella, good olive oil and you can taste that somebody has made deliberate choices about what belongs on it. I ordered the Margherita and added mushrooms, which turned out to be a great addition. The mushrooms were excellent, the tomato had real flavor and the blistering from the oven gave it that irregular handmade character you want from this kind of pizza. The proportions just didn't quite work for me. There was so much crust relative to what was happening in the center that eventually the crust became the meal. Some of the char crossed pretty decisively into black, which I can live with from a very hot oven, but the Margherita also felt strangely stingy on cheese. When the dough is already carrying that much weight, you need enough happening on top to meet it halfway. By the end I was dipping the leftover crust into the ravioli sauce simply to give it something to do. That ravioli, incidentally, was excellent. Easily the best thing we ordered. Tender, comforting, with a tomato sauce good enough that we deliberately saved what was left. The kids demolished it, which is generally a more honest review than anything I can write. The Caesar was the disappointment. There were beautiful whole anchovies on top which I loved and wish more places had the nerve to serve but the salad itself was absolutely drowned. The dressing was so aggressive and heavy that the lettuce had already surrendered by the time it reached us. Soggy, over dressed, oxidized brown parts in the lettuce and far more intense than it needed to be. I didn't have the heart to send it back because nothing was technically "wrong" with it. It was just a good collection of ingredients that had been smothered into submission. Service had a similar problem. Nothing overtly bad, but very little warmth. The new hostess was clearly being trained, so no criticism there. The main service felt more transactional than hospitable. Order, check-in, dessert, check, moving us through the sequence efficiently without ever making the meal feel particularly cared for. The wine recommendation was genuinely good, requests were handled and nobody was rude. It simply felt generic. The space itself is pleasant, especially with the coastal air coming through and there is clearly ability in the kitchen. That is probably what makes the experience harder to rate. This isn't a bad restaurant. There were flashes of something very good here. When the meal was over, the ravioli was still the thing I kept thinking about. There is enough quality here that I wouldn't write Locale90 off and I'd come back hoping some of the smaller things. The balance of the pizza, the Caesar and a little more warmth in the service land differently next time. Three stars, for me, doesn't mean bad. It means there is something good here that hasn't quite come together yet. The ingredients are there. Some of the cooking absolutely is too. I hope they take the criticism in the spirit it's intended, because with a few adjustments this could easily become a place I'm excited to return to rather than one I'm still trying to figure out.

Someone even came in from next door asking for a manager, but none was present. Get it together, guys! You have a good thing going with the pizza, but the service was a mess and the wings were not good.

    We chose this place for my friend's birthday dinner, and we had such a wonderful experience!…read more Everything was great, from the atmosphere and service to the food. The food was fresh, delicious, and very reasonably priced for the quality. We were especially impressed with how much we got for the price. Since it was my friend's birthday, they even surprised us with a complimentary cake, which was such a nice touch and the perfect way to finish the meal. It's not in my neighborhood, but I would definitely make the trip back. I'd love to come here again with my family next time!

    I have to agree with Rebecca L.- Bettolino Kitchen nails that tricky balance between upscale-casual…read moreand family-friendly, without making you feel like you've accidentally wandered into either a Chuck E. Cheese or a place where the waiter judges your shoes. We had a great waiter- dry, professional, and actually helpful when I was dithering between a few dishes. My kind of service. The food was outstanding, starting with the thick, focaccia-style bread, which could probably ruin your appetite if you weren't careful. Fortunately, I was careful. The eggplant parm was exactly what eggplant parm should be: crisp, flavorful, and decidedly not soggy. Because nobody has ever said, "You know what this eggplant needs? More moisture." I had a pesto corkscrew pasta dish whose actual name I neglected to write down because apparently I've reached the limits of my restaurant-reviewing professionalism. Excellent nonetheless. All accompanied by an Aperol Spritz, because hydration is important. It's also only a couple of blocks off Catalina Ave., close enough to the action without being swallowed by it. Bettolino has become my go-to Italian in the South Bay. I've never been disappointed here, and I have considerable experience being disappointed. Cheers!
