I've been visiting different locations of this breakfast spot, and this one stands out as having…read morethe best atmosphere in our neighborhood. At many brunch restaurants, you can sometimes sense when the basics -- like pancakes or French toast -- aren't given the attention they deserve. They may look appealing on the menu but feel rushed or underwhelming when served. Here, however, the fundamentals are done right. There's care in the texture, balance, and execution, and that consistency makes all the difference. Weekend mornings often find us slightly sleepy and very hungry, searching for somewhere comforting to begin the day. What we want is warmth and familiarity -- something that feels almost as cozy as staying in bed. And when the craving for sweet carbohydrates hits, we're not looking for restraint. We're looking for soft, fluffy, fully satisfying bites. If that's what you're after, this location delivers. You'll likely leave in a better mood than when you arrived.

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!

If you're into off-roading and comfort food...check out Clutch and Coffee in Old Torrance. Let's…read morejust say I wasn't expecting there to be a theme because my partner chose this place for brunch, but they are serving up some gooooood American breakfast classics. Standouts include their Chicken and Waffle, which is served with candied bacon wrapped around a bunch of thyme (not exaggerating here). The lemon herb butter is the best part. I stole some off my partner's plate for my biscuit, which was warm and moist. If you're going on a weekend, it does get busy. Make sure to check in with the host if you're using Yelp Wait List, or you'll end up waiting longer than expected. It's also very loud and dark in there, so if you'd like a more chill ambiance, get seated on their patio.

Had another amazing Clutch & Coffee breakfast over the weekend. It truly was DELICIOUS…read more Of course I'll always get the blueberry pancakes. They are simply divine. This time, I also tried the loaded breakfast potatoes. Potatoes, sausage, peppers...perfect! Full of flavor! This diner style restaurant gets very busy on weekends and you definitely need to get everything from your server while you can...but they are pleasant and helpful. No issues there. I also tried an ice coffee since it was a lovely warm day out. Server recommended the "White Lotus" latte , it was sooooo good 10/10! Treat yourself to this place.

It came with a cilantro sauce as well as some pickled red onion. I also tried the turon pancakes which had slices of jackfruit on top to give it an extra Asian flair. There is seating indoors and outdoors. I had the thin mint iced latte which was good and not too sweet. There were lots of flavor options for lattes. They had a kids menu as well and lots of side options. There were lots of Korean-inspired dishes as well like Kim chi fried rice. There was an entire menu just for different breakfast burritos. The turon pancakes really tasted like the real caramelized turon. It had a nice sticky syrup on top that wasn't too sweet. The pancakes came super hot and were fluffy. The portion size was great. The cilantro sauce on the burrito was delicious. The pickled veggies added nice acidity that I appreciated. The bad: I don't know if there was any parking other than street parking. We parked right out front which was 1 hour parking and to the side is 20 minute parking. The interesting: You order and pay at the counter and the food gets brought out to you. I saw they had fresh cookies baked as well. Inside, there were festive balloons. I am not sure if it's always there or if they were from a special event. I've tried their catering company too and it was great! I really love how both the cafe and catering company use fresh flowers on their food to elevate their presentation.

I've been wanting to try this spot for the longest time, and I'm so glad I finally did! I came by…read moreyesterday around 10:30am and placed my order around 10:50. The way it works is you order first, then wait for them to seat you once a table opens up. It was super busy, so there was a bit of standing around while waiting for a table. Personally, I'm not the biggest fan of that setup, but honestly...the food made it completely worth it. What we ordered: * Almond croissant * Ube cruffin * Lemon ricotta pancakes * Breakfast burrito with bacon * Side of potatoes * Strawberry pistachio matcha * Cinnagave shaken espresso Everything was absolutely incredible. I'm seriously craving it again while writing this The food was amazing, and the drinks were next-level good. The café itself is adorable, with both indoor and outdoor seating options. Also, shoutout to the sweet woman with the star clips in her hair! She was so friendly, and my niece loved that she complimented the Jigglypuff on her water bottle. I'll definitely be coming back. This place truly doesn't miss, and I highly recommend giving it a try!

First, a heads-up: parking in the area can be a bit of a challenge, so plan ahead and expect to look for street parking. That said, once you arrive, everything runs impressively smoothly. You'll stand in line to place your order at the register, and then they'll seat you. There are two seating options, an indoor patio and an outdoor patio; both with a really cute, inviting vibe. What really stood out was the thoughtful Mother's Day touch. While we were in line, they offered champagne and gave out roses, white for mothers who are no longer with us and red for those who are. Such a beautiful and meaningful gesture. Once seated, drinks came out quickly, and the food followed shortly after. I was genuinely impressed with how efficient and well-organized everything was, especially given how busy it was. For food, I ordered the Dutch Baby, and my companion had the Bailey's Breakfast, both were delicious and well-prepared. Between the great food, charming decor, and amazing service, this place really delivered. I'll definitely be back.

We were seated right away and the lady helping us was very friendly and helpful. She recommended the le Parisien (ham and cheese) for me and le Ratatouille for my friend as he's a vegetarian. I liked my sandwich but my friend felt his sandwich was a bit oily. The sandwiches were wrapped for that reason so don't unwrap it as it will get really greasy. He kept 1/2 sandwich to go and got the vegan salad and really loved it. We also ordered the mango and peach dessert. The mango was decent but the peach fell really short, no idea what it's suppose to taste like but it was def lacking. The pomegranate soda that was recommended was tasty. Overall: felt for the price point had higher expectation for the food/dessert and it def did not meet. But the service was amazing and love the ambient. I did for a moment felt like I was in another country. For those reasons we wouldn't giving this place another try and order other things on the menu. 3.5 stars.

I decided to have the corn beef and hash. The corn beef brisket was very flavorful and i really enjoyed every bite. The scrambled eggs were a little flat but good. The hash browns were fantastic and crispy. Very nice experience. My wife had the omelette and she enjoyed it, taking the rest home with her. We usually keep things simple and try different things. Getting a pancake was out of the question as just one went for nearly 7 dollars. That was too bad because it would have been nice. The food is definitely good so come check it out, I'll give more options on the menu a try on my next visit. The service was good so expect them to look after ya. Really love the artwork especially the John Lennon piece.

Crispy on the outside, perfectly tender on the inside. Add salt to your liking and don't forget the salsa!! I swear, they need to sell this salsa in stores, it's that good. The lady up front was so sweet and helpful, as always. I am going to miss this place when we move. The sausage burrito was perfect, as always. It's the ratio, they just nail it! Perfect amount of cheese, crispy hashbrown inside, perfect amount of meat and egg. I'm ruined for any other breakfast burrito now because I'll just compare it to Yellow Basket and nobody will ever do it as well.
