I've had burgers from the Standing Room 3 times and I wish it was more…read more I just always know going in that I need to commit to a hefty meal when I do. Burgers are insane, stacked tall with amazingness and have a ton of flavor. We placed an order easily online and it was ready promptly. My son and I shared the BULL ($19 - Bulgogi, Kimchi, Caramelized Onion, Shishito Peppers, Spring Mix, American, Cheddar, Korean Aioli) and it was amazing. It could have possibly had more aioli spread evenly on it if I had one very, very minor complaint. We also shared the Shishito Peppers because they were out of their awesome Brussel Sprouts ($10.00 - Lup Cheong Sausage, Chili Garlic Soy Reduction, Gochu-q) and man, that sausage is sick...so good. I wanted for more but at $10, it is a great side portion and the sauce that it came with was amazing...I kept dredging and dredging. HIGHLY HIGHLY HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

Nelson's at Terranea Resort is one of those spots you go to for the setting alone. Perched high on…read morethe bluffs overlooking the ocean, the views are absolutely stunning and make it a popular (and busy) destination--so I definitely recommend making a reservation ahead of time. We came here last Sunday for brunch with a large group and were seated inside. While the interior is nice and the bar area is lively--with multiple TVs and a great energy--you really come here for the outdoor experience. If you can snag a table on the patio, that's the move. You'll get front-row views of the coastline, with birds flying by and even the occasional whale or dolphin sighting, which makes the whole experience feel extra special. That said, this visit didn't quite live up to what I remembered. The service was a bit slow, especially for a large party, and the food just didn't hit the same--it was good, but not as memorable as past visits. Overall, Nelson's is still worth it for the incredible ocean views and ambiance, but I'd set expectations that the food and service may not always match the scenery.

Went there for brunch. Does have the view of the ocean. Food was ok. The loco moco sauce and the…read moreegg was good but the meat itself was flavorless. The chorizo burrito was big and packed inside but there was mostly carbs inside. The chocolate chip pancake was actually very good. Fluffy and just the right amount of sweetness. FYI it's quite far from self parking so make sure you have plenty of time to walk there. The walk itself was actually nice. Got to see parts of the resort.

The food was pretty good and the atmosphere was pretty awesome too. For a late night out, I was already kind of "pre-gamed" to say the least, and I felt extremely comfortable inside of the restaurant, even inebriated. Amazing spot to grab some grub late night with friends, would go here again.

The food comes out instantly because everything is pre-made and sitting, nothing is actually fresh, and if it is "fresh," it's fried. The beer isn't even cold. The service is okay, but the overpriced menu doesn't match what you actually get. I ordered a Cuban listed at $19, and they charged me almost $24. Same with the drink--they charged $17 for my drink when it clearly said 15 The ambiance is loud music and a lot of pretentious locals. This place sucks.

Are you in search of a breakfast burrito in the south bay? Well look no further! Here is Phanny's…read morefor ya. Located on the corner of PCH and avenue C, Phanny's has been a staple in the breakfast burrito game. I have been coming here years ago, but have not been in a min. Welp, I had an urge to get a breakfast burrito and Phanny's is the first place that will come to mind. I ended up ordering a bacon, sausage egg breakfast burrito with diced jalapeños. PHEWWWW. Wow Phanny. You did it again girl. WOW. 5 big booms all AROUND. There is no salsa needed. The flavor from the meat is enough. The perfect amount of saltiness, the perfect tortilla, the right amount of meat to egg ratio. This burrito did it for me. The added jalapeños add that extra spice and crunch. I love crunchy texture so the jalapeños def hit that need for me personally, and plus its a nice kick to it if you like spicy! Just do yourself a favor and try Phanny's out. Service was swift and kind. They are fully takeout only. I am unsure if this was a conversion after COVID or not, but it's a little sad to see you are not able to enjoy their breakfast burritos fresh and hot there. I believe there is only 1 outside bench seating off Avenue C. They do take apple pay, which I feel like they did not in the past. so no cash needed! There is a parking lot being the business off avenue C which is nice so you do not need to park on PCH or in the neighborhood to try to get to this business. I will def be coming back to Phanny's soon. Unfortunately no pictures because I scarfed it down. its one of those, love at first bite. it was our honeymoon night and I devoured the burrito. no crumbs left behind. no ketchup or salsa required.

Came back here to try few other options and here are some additional notes:…read more * The coffee menu is hidden and posted on the right side of the wall inside the cashier counter window & separate from the breakfast burrito menu. * On weekends, the pickup counter is located behind the building in the parking lot rather than at the front window facing the street like on weekdays. * Free salsa, but customers need to ask the staff for it when picking up their order. * The drip coffee was surprisingly good & just as good as drip coffee from other third-wave coffee shops. * 2 Meat Combination burrito (bacon and sausage $13.75): It was not as good as the carne asada burrito. The sausage was slightly too salty for my taste. * Carne asada burrito ($14.75): This is definitely the one to get - amazing carne asada and a soft wrap. The price-to-portion ratio is a bit too high to come here regularly, but it is still a solid staple for anyone looking for an above-average breakfast burrito in the South Bay.

Waiters kept checking on us. Got the mild Buffalo Wings for $14 and Parmesan Fries for $6. The wings were good. The Parmesan Fries were really good, they didn't skimped on the Parmesan. Both dishes were small and came with ranch sauce. Got place to watch the games with friends. Not the place to have a conversation. Happy Hour was Monday to Friday from 4pm to 7pm and 10pm to closing at midnight. Karaoke night was Wednesdays and Saturdays from 10pm to closing at midnight.

I had business in the same shopping center and decided to drop in for lunch…read more Torrance Tavern is restaurant bar located in a shopping center. Needless to say, there is plenty of parking. The interior is neat and clean. There are various types of seating (bar; table; booth; high-tops; communal), and plenty of screens to watch sports. On this occasion, I ordered the Tavern Fish & Chips ($22). It is described as "Alaskan cod coated in a tempura beer batter and served with French fries, tartar sauce and yuzu herb coleslaw". The positives of this dish are that it was prepared well. Both the fish and chips tasted good. The presentation was also nice; which leads to the coleslaw: The coleslaw tasted good, too; but I was surprised the serving was so spare. It's almost as if it was served just to optically balance the presentation in the basket. (See photo shared,) And while the price was not unreasonable, feel it's creeping towards expensive (relative to serving size). I'll attribute this to rising input costs. Staffing might be an issue during the lunchtime service. Service was okay, but they seemed to be understaffed. It's possible that most of their business is done after 5pm.

I recently went to a party where all the food was from Truxtons! The food was delicious. I took photos. There were salmon skewers, Bistro Salad, various sandwiches, fruit, hummus and veggies pickled cucumbers, penne pasta, and skewers of tomato, cheese with basil .Everyone at the party raved about how good the food tasted. Of course the host displayed the food beautifully. The host picked up the food in large container trays from the restaurant and then arranged the food at home for the party. 5 stars for the food!

Sometimes you do need to wave them down if you need things a little faster. Food: amazing American food - well seasoned. Sounds like you can customize anything - if they have it they will do it. Would love to try other things there as well.

Been wanting to try out this burger spot for a while so since it's Friday and I've had a great day…read moreso far I decided why not try them out today. The moment I pulled into the driveway I can smell the good stuff being made. I decided to order the bacon avocado burger with some chili cheese fries. OMG!!!! My burger was absolutely delicious. My cheese fries were also soo freaking bomb!!!!! This may be my favorite burger spot now in Torrance. They have a big menu as well. Breakfast-Lunch & dinner. I will definitely be coming back with my family. You can't go wrong For $20 bucks. I highly recommend this spot if you don't want to wait in those long In n Out lines.

I ordered the California chicken sandwich along with fries with no salt in a separate bag and every time I said fries in a separate bag, she said no the chicken is already marinated and I said no I would like my fries in a separate bag as I'm driving back now just trying to get a little taste from running errands all day. The fries are extremely soggy full of grease. No crisp to them whatsoever very disappointed once again this place comes highly recommended. Sorry have to change my review. I won't be coming back. I will say the young lady in the window was very kind, and when I informed her about the fries, she immediately got a bag for me, and then I noticed the individual who took my order lean back to see who asked for another bag for their fries, mind you I said it multiple times in the beginning, but it's all good. I understand things happen however soggy fries. No thank you state of Gaffney Street.

She was right, 2 taco plates for $25. Three generous size tacos and chips. I had the baja fish and he had the shrimp tacos. We had great service from Alex and were excited to dine there again as this is 5 minutes from our house. We went back a week or so later on a Thursday night, we were seated promptly and then we waited for over 20 minutes to be acknowledged, offered water or to place our order. Instead we watched the server clean tables (there were plenty available), chit chat with staff at the bar and be in the kitchen for quite a period of time. No "I'll be right with you - nothing". We were ready to get up and leave and he finally came by to see what we wanted to drink. We decided to place our order because who knows when he would be back. I had the BBQ Chicken Salad which was delicious, he had a burger which was meh. The broiche bun was dry and was unbalanced (the top was thick and the bottom barely there) which made it fall apart when you ate it. I'm not sure that we are willing to give it another try with so many other great choices nearby. We tried......

I stood in line to order my coffee and the coffee ordering set up is a little off. Wasn't really sure who to order with and also they gave me a ticket, but I didn't know who I was supposed to pay. It wasn't until I asked somebody. Did they let me know that I pay with the store cashier. I felt like I waited it really long time for my iced Matcha. I stayed at the counter only because I wasn't sure of the whole process, but I saw the gentleman put my coffee in this little basket and I waited a little bit to see if they would call my name but they didn't so I finally had to go up there and ask if the coffee was mine and it was. Not sure why they asked for our names if they're not gonna call them out. Luckily, I was standing there the whole time, but there was confusion before me with somebody getting somebody else else's coffee, and I think it had to do with the fact that they don't really announce when your coffee is ready. Once I had my coffee, I paid at the register which I had to stand in another line and they charged me a fee, which was questionable, but I already had my coffee and had waited in two lines already. The place was packed and I'm sure a lot of people enjoy the market, but I wasn't really a fan and not sure I will ever go back
