Are you in search of a breakfast burrito in the south bay? Well look no further! Here is Phanny's for 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. read more

Came back here to try few other options and here are some additional notes: * 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. read more

- Decent service - Decent prices - Plenty of parking spaces behind the building. - You order at the window and then wait at the blocked door for your order. - Waited about 10 mins on an early Friday morning. - Suggest calling in your order to avoid potential long waits esp on the weekends. - There's no indoor seating but I did see a table with benches on the side of the building. - Average sized bacon breakfast burrito - Request the salsa on the side. Forgot to ask when I ordered so my hash browns were no longer crispy. read more

This place is really good, but the level of customer service and the time you have to wait is obscene. Phones are never answered for pre order, and if you order there you're going to wait 45min for a burrito. read more

Heard a lot about this place and decided to try it today. Parking lot in the rear with a kitchen door open with a table, container of napkins and container of straws. Assumed that was the pick up for carry out orders. No sign except for "Employees only." There is a door to the dining area, but it was locked; no sign. Walked around to the front. The dining area had the door open but it was chained off with a handmade sign. Something about Saturdays and Sundays. Didn't bother to read it. Order window was in the front off Sepulveda. By the time I reached the line, two parties that parked their cars after me were ahead of me in line. Oh wait, there is a walk through from the parking lot in the back direct to the front, close to the order window. Interesting. Again, no directional signs in the parking lot to clue anyone in. Breakfast burritos is what the served with the menu on the window. I wondered about what to drink but that menu was posted inside on the wall to the right, making it difficult to read. Since there were people behind me in line, I didn't bother ordering a drink. I ordered a Veggie Burritto and went through the walk through to the parking lot to wait for my order. It didn't take long so I guess it's just the new customers that don't know how it works and where to go. Ok, bye. read more

I've always thought breakfast burritos were okay or good, but this one.....the best I've had! It hit the spot & everything inside it was really good. Walking up to the window to order, the service was easy, fast, & great! I ordered the carne asada breakfast burrito & I could go for another one if I could, as I'm writing this. The hash browns were perfect in each bite along with everything else in it! Will definitely have to come back again when I'm back in town! read more

Phanny's - Carne asada breakfast burrito - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Redondo Beach, California

Yummmmmmm. The chorizo is my fave. I wish that they had at least a few tables like before they converted fully to takeouts only, but it's great because you get to take the burritos to the beach and enjoy the nice breeze and sunlight. They also have offset coffee and matcha so it's really great for breakfast. Food comes out pretty fast which was awesome. read more

A local favorite for a reason! I have been coming to Phanny's for years since back when they were cash only. The place is small - 2/3 kitchen, with a small dining area of about 6-8 tables, and a small parking lot with about 8-10 spots. I'm super disappointed they have closed the dining area with no reason given. It's mostly a take out spot but it was nice to have a quick seat when we needed to eat there. The service is friendly at the cash register and quick for them to call your name usually unless there is a super long line. The burritos are Y-U-M-M-Y!!! I get a classic bacon burrito and it never disappoints. Always a solid option with a typical price for the area ($14 with tax). read more

Came on a Friday morning with a little bit of line to order though it went pretty quickly. We heard a lot of hype about their burritos so we were pretty excited to finally try them. They told us it would take about 15 minutes to get them so we waited in the car. My husband came back out at 15 minutes and waited by the pick up area. He saw two people order then get theirs before him. He went up to the window and it turned out they forgot to make our order. Finally after 30 minutes with no one else waiting he got his order. He asked if they put the salsa on the side like he had asked and they ended up having to remake it again because they forgot. As for the food, I think it was pretty mid. I agree with other reviews that it tastes like something you could easily make at home. It was lacking flavor and salsa didn't really help. The size didn't help as well. It was underwhelming for the price you are paying. Unfortunately a pretty disappointing experience. read more

Sad to say, Phannys is no longer what it once was. Went at 11am on a Thursday, it was relatively empty. My burrito came out in 5 mins, I continued waiting for my coffee and watched everyone who ordered after me received their coffee before me. After 15 mins I checked in, guy said he was making it. Then he proceeded to give me the wrong coffee, at this point im set back 20 mins and ask for a refund because I have no time to wait there like an idiot again. Then I bite into the burrito, and it's absolute garbage mush. It used to have a crispy hash brown, you would be able to differentiate the sausage, from the egg, to the cheese and the crispy hash. Now its just a nasty thick tortilla and mush inside for about $16. It's so freaking heart breaking, this place was such a gem for so long and now its just slop with shitty service and bumbling employees who can't offer good service. read more

Phanny's - Nasty mushy burrito - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Redondo Beach, California

The good: I tried the ham breakfast burrito and carne asada breakfast burrito. I also got a side of bacon and hashbrown for my kids. The bacon was very crispy and nicely shaped. The burrito wasn't dry and wasn't overly juicy or wet either so you could walk and eat it. The vanilla nitro cold brew coffee was delicious. I always see a line here and was glad I finally got to see what the hype was about. The bad: The hashbrown was super crunchy but tasted so much like just the oil. It was similar to McDonalds hashbrown (which I love) but oozed with more oil. They had a small dining area to the left but it was closed off. My burrito was too salty for me but I tend to like things on the less salty side. I wish there were more options for kids. The interesting: You order at the front of the store and pickup at the back. You can ask for extra sides of salsa. There's a parking lot in the back. read more

Phanny's is a South Bay classic! If you're looking for delicious breakfast burritos by the beach, this is the perfect spot to hit up. I usually get the 3 meat combo breakfast burrito which comes with sausage, bacon and ham with cheese, salsa, eggs and hash browns. The burrito is pretty hefty-- I definitely can't finish it in one sitting. Ask for some hot sauce and they will give you some Tapatio packets which is a must for me! They have iced coffee there too which I have tried before but it was just okay.. not a must get. FYI there is no seating here. It's just a window that you order at to take to go. After you get your burrito, you can drive down a couple blocks and eat it along the beach while enjoying the ocean breeze. Doesn't get any more South Bay than that! Parking: free in lot in back read more

I've been coming to Phanny's for years, whether it's for a breakfast burrito after a surf sesh or just stopping by spontaneously--it never disappoints. The food is always delicious and fresh, making it a genuine South Bay local favorite. :) read more

Came here because the reviews and I was in the area. I must say they did not disappoint. We recommended to get the Asada burrito and it was flavorful, it looks small but I was totally satiated. The service was good. Prices were more than I care for $16 for a burrito, I'd feel better if it came with a basic lemonade. Signage of where to pick up and place your order would be helpful. Nonetheless, I'd come back. read more

Very solid breakfast burrito - my friends showed me this place since they are locals and this is their go-to breakfast burrito place. Spots like this make me wish I had more breakfast burritos options back in NYC. Homey, not fussy, and soft tender eggs with warm tender hash potatoes inside as well. Delicious and I scarfed it down. I also didn't feel too heavy afterwards, either. The tortilla was tasty and light too. The chorizo was nice and savory/salty too. Would for sure come back here on my next trip to the area. I'm already salivating dreaming about these solid burritos from the south bay. They're also near the beach so they're the perfect location to grab a bite before you go off to grab some sun, or perhaps after! read more

Phanny's - soy chorizo veggie burrito - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Redondo Beach, California

Love love love Phanny's! The sizes of the burritos are just right, the flavor is unbeatable. My husband and I hunt for breakfast burritos all around the South Bay and there just aren't any that beat Phanny's. They offer more protein options than most places (highly recommend the pastrami or turkey sausage), there's a nice crisp in the tater tots/potatoes they use, and there's just something about the salsa. It's soo simple but it really gets the craving satisfied. Too many breakfast burrito places overdo it with the sizes and ingredients. Additional plus is that it has its own (small) parking lot, and the beach is just a walk away - you can truly get a top tier SoCal experience. Who doesn't love a good breakfast burrito on the beach??? read more

Phanny's - IN BURRITOS WE TRUST - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Redondo Beach, California

Some of the best breakfast burritos in the area! Every time, I'd go visit my bestie, we'd consider coming back here to grab burritos and eat on the beach. The prices are reasonable and the burritos are so flavorful. They have vegetarian options for my fellow veggies. Definitely worth checking out if you haven't been here before! read more

So far the best breakfast burrito I've had in the South Bay! Perfect ratio of tasty ingredients. Not too eggy, not a potato burrito. Had ham and bacon and it was phenomenal and perfect size! No wonder there is always a line! read more

Food is always hot and delicious. You have to get the salsa too! Service is friendly and the wait time is quick. Such a short distance from the beach so we walk down to the promenade to enjoy. read more

Phanny's - Carne asada burrito - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Redondo Beach, California

Burritos were pretty solid, decent size. I got the two meat combo bacon and sausage for one burrito and chorizo for the other. My only regret is not asking for salsa on the side instead of it being on the inside. I think that would help keep the hash browns crispy. I took burrito to the beach which was about a 5 min walk. Chorizo def the winner. The lady in the front is super nice. I got their horchata which was pretty good, didn't cause me to have any taste fatigue from the sweetness like I normally do with other horchatas. There's no sit down, just take out. Place seems is in the corner kept pretty clean. read more

Hyped, and I've given it 3 tries. Every time without exception cheese was bunched in one portio, super short on meat content. Mostly egg and hash as the filler. The absolute worst part about their menu is what they call "carne asada" burrito. The meat is a shredded beef and not carne asada, which is cooked on the grill. Looks like they buy cheap meat, slow cook it to tendorize it and throw it on the grill right before they put it in the burrito. The meat drips from the liquid and gets the burrito super messy. When you pay top dollar but get cheap ingredients like nitrite presrvative filled bacon and sausage. On top of cheap hormone filled cheese from corn fed cows. And you can't even try and deliver a decent burrito, but want top dollar. I say hasta la vista Señor Phanny! I really wish they would put more care in their food quality. But they are just cashing in instead. The insid is not well kept, everything is old and just holding up. The grill area is dirty just to name a few things. I could think of 4 places I rather go. 1. Brother's Burrito 2. Caps & Corks 3. Tigres Fuego 4. Baran's 2239 read more

Phanny's - Shredded beef, not carne asad. Flavor is horrible. - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Redondo Beach, California

Solid spot for breakfast burritos by the beach. The place is to go only and you order at a window. Their burrito wasn't anything spectacular and I felt the price was on the higher end. The basic egg burrito already started at about $12. There wasn't too much crunch from the potatoes since it was a bit soggy from the salsa that was included inside. I preferred the sausage burrito since it probably had the most amount of flavor, but overall I thought it was alright. read more

It's the best breakfast burrito in the downtown Redondo Beach area, and it's a pickup location. I ordered online and it was ready in 20 min. There is no ambiance to this parking lot, but the beach is 2 short blocks away. I repeatedly order from here. read more

I got 3 breakfast burritos from this place because I had heard good things about it. Every burrito was very heavy on the potatoes and light on the meat. The flavor was okay but did not live up to the hype. All in all very average. read more

Solid burrito place for take out! Food: We ordered the soy chorizo and bacon breakfast burrito. Both were good burritos. The soy chorizo was surprisingly better than most soy chorizo burritos out there! These were solid burritos, but was not top tier. But I still think it's a great place to pick up a burrito to bring to a picnic or to the beach (nearby!). All burritos come with egg, cheese, hashbrowns and salsa! Ambiance: Take out only and no outdoor seating to eat. You order at the front and get called up to pick up your order to take out. They have indoor seating, but it's closed off (not sure when they will open indoor seating) Service: Waited 5 minutes before getting my order taken even though there was no one in front of us which didn't give me the best impression. Besides that, the service was just normal. Price for burrito was around $11. Not bad! Overall, good place to stop by for an above average burrito if you're the area! read more

Phanny's - Burritos - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Redondo Beach, California

I come here when I'm at the beach due to proximity. I feel it's overrated and overpriced for what they give you. The inside always comes out mushy even when I eat it right away. I prefer that each component of my breakfast burrito tastes distinctive. The hash browns and bacon should have a nice crunch to it. The sausage should stand out. The cheese should be nicely melted.!Instead it tastes as if it's all jumbled together and not in a good way. I think it's due to the burrito having too much moisture in it. I'll probably still keep coming back and being bummed out every time I bite into it. read more

Stopped by in early 2025 just to grab one of their famous breakfast burritos, constantly trumpeted by critics as the best breakfast burrito in the South Bay area of Los Angeles County. It was OK. I made a side trip as I was walking back to the Redondo Beach Pier from visiting Torrance Beach. Phanny's has been earmarked on my maps for a while. It closes at 2 pm, and was able to make it around 12:30. They have a small parking lot, but since I had walked up, ended up seeing their back entrance first. A sign clearly stated that their dining room was closed, and that you needed to order in front. There are two make-shift windows/doors in front and the further one (closer to the kitchen) is the window for order taking, while the closer one is where you get your order...perfect set-up when things are busy, but a little harder to understand when you are the only customer. Anyway...it's a small menu, consisting only of breakfast burritos. Ordered a Sausage burrito ($11.75) and got it about 10 minutes later (at the other window). No frills service. Ended up eating lunch somewhere else, and brought the burrito back home. It was still warm even 3 hours later, and had been carefully wrapped. It had been made with care, with no ingredient overwhelming the others (sausage, scrambled eggs, hash browns, cheese, and sausage) making sure that all the ingredients were evenly distributed. I enjoyed the sausage...pellet sized, flavorful...the kind used for pizza, but definitely not homemade. But the tortilla was very average, the kind you can get at any grocery store. My biggest gripe was the size...if you are going to use such a big size tortilla, then make the burrito big enough to not have so much overlap of the wrap: some bites had 6 layers of the tasteless tortilla because of the wrapping method...I ended up not eating those pieces Plus the cheese and salsa were negligible...my preferred style is a lot of melty cheese and a side of salsa to dunk each bite. I did end up eating it with salsa I had at home. read more

I really wanted to like this place -- great location, cool local vibe, and a solid concept. But come on... over $15 for a breakfast burrito that's barely filled? For that price, I'm expecting something substantial, not a tortilla with a handful of eggs and air. The strangest part is the salsa situation. You ask for a little salsa on the side, and they tell you (verbatim): "The salsa's already in the burrito." Then you open the burrito -- no salsa. None. Not a drop. So either it evaporated, or someone in the back is playing a long-running joke on everyone. And if you ask for even a tiny tablespoon-sized cup, they act like you're requesting a federal secret. The burrito itself? Fine. Not bad, but nothing memorable. Warm, edible, but not worth fifteen bucks and an argument over a spoonful of salsa. Bottom line: decent breakfast, ridiculous pricing, confusing salsa policy. Charge a fair price or just give people some salsa. read more

The hype was real. This bk burrito just hits all the spots you're needing to hit in the morning. I got the soy chorizo with avocado added on. The potatoes in it were perfectttt. I throughly enjoyed the whole thing. Not too greasy. They have a small sit down area but honestly, you can walk a few blocks down and sit right on the beach with a gorgeous view of the hills and enjoy your bk burrito there. You can't beat that. I also got an iced matcha latte with oat milk. It was delicious. I love how it didn't come pre sweetened- I'm not a fan of sweet drinks. Service was thorough. This is one of those places that you want to keep a secret, but somehow all the ogs know about it. read more

Solid breakfast burrito spot in the South Bay! + Parking lot and ample street parking surrounding the location + Quick walk to the beach to enjoy a nice stroll while enjoying your burrito Came on a Sunday around noon and ordered the Bacon Burrito and the Carne Asada Burrito. The burritos were quite filling but it did feel a bit wet compared to other breakfast burritos I've had. I think I would probably ask for salsa on the side and control the amount in my burrito. I think the fillings themselves could have been grilled a little longer? To get that crunchy textural difference! The meats themselves were tasty but also weren't as well distributed as I hoped. I think this is a solid spot to itch the breakfast burrito craving if I'm in the South Bay, but I wouldn't say it was life changing. The staff was really friendly though! read more

Great breakfast burritos. Fast service. Parking in the back lot can be hit or miss--sometimes no more spots left but just wait a little and someone will leave soon. There's no seating available though--indoor dining space is closed and it's to-go pick up only. We ended up walking to the beach and eating there. read more

Great the burritos and decent in prize. Love the carna asada abd the two meat burritos.!!!! read more

Had been to this place dozens of times over the years. It's been about 4 years since my last chorizo burrito and I was craving one all week. So today I went and nothing was the same. Couldn't sit and wait in the dining area had to wait in the hot sun standing on the sidewalk and the food was horribly disappointing. Very little soy chorizo and what was in there could barely get that yummy chorizo taste. Must be new owner as the husband wife team I was used to seeing in the kitchen were not there. Guess I won't have that craving ever again read more

Great Breakfast Burritos and coffee! Beware for a line on the weekend- pop by on a weekday to try it! The bacon breakfast burrito is delicious! Tried the pastrami too and it's delicious but I prefer pastrami in a sandwich situation personally. But super delicate and sells out first. Standing at the window you see bowls piled high of crunchy bacon and well, who would not have the bacon?! After you see bowls piled high of perfectly cooked crunchy bacon! They offer soy chorizo and regular and carne asada and sausage and double or triple meat- yes- wild and yes I heard people ordering it! Me, the regular was fine and perfectly filling! Fluffy eggs and hash browns, cheese and salsa included!(but salsa absorbs so you might want a spare as you eat it. Their cold brew is good but on bitter side so needed to add some milk but they have interesting drinks like Lavender Lattes and Mochas etc. which would be worth trying. Weekend at after 9a- 10 people in line after 10am, 20 people in line. Weekday-1-3 people. Next time I am ordering a side of hash browns as well as it was crispy on its own. (Yes it is in burrito already) just looked good on its own. You walk up and order at the face of Phanny's on PCH. Parking in back. Pick up in back. The inside seating has been closed off every time I have been. The Staff is super friendly, helpful in choosing and served with a smile. They take Apple Pay etc all of it. read more

This review is based on one visit. Burritos bursting with flavor were the order of the day for 3 hungry diners. Chorizo burrito was nicely spicy. Carne asada burrito had appropriately-sized chunks of meat, blended with salsa cheese and other goodness. Phanny's coffee sign says they have good coffee. This is a serious understatement! The coffee was GREAT. Well organized ordering process, clean space and a wonderful vibe here. Please stop by if you haven't tried Phanny's yet. I hope you'll be as big a fan as we are after today's visit. read more

Wow. Disappointing, a very average breakfast burrito, definitely on the lightly filled side. No salsa or hot sauce available at pick-up, included or offered (yes .. it's on me to "find" a condiment for a place specializing in burritos). Bad attitude service. Doing them a favor by ordering apparently. After ordering burrito and two drinks, asked for a courtesy cup of water for our dog as we were waiting out on the sunny sidewalk. Basic, no? Told, sorry, can't do that. Asked for some ice cubes. Got a few. Told we could buy bottled water. So ... NOT dog friendly in a dog friendly town and area. At least when the friendly chef brought the order out, he came back with a small water cup exactly when the order taker was explaining they weren't allowed to "hand out" water. Hey, we survived, but average food and salty service = a no go in the future. LOTS of choices out there. Bye. read more

I haven't been back to Fannys in years as their prices had gone up and I felt like they were pretty expensive for what I would consider a grab and go place. As you can no longer sit inside and you order at the window and they hand you your burrito in a small paper bag with no napkins or salsa, I feel it's lost the affordable and classic breakfast diner charm it used to have. This time I got the sausage breakfast burrito which I used to love but was unfortunately disappointed with this time around. I typically love their food but this burrito lacked any sort of flavor and resembled something I'd throw together at home. It seemed to not have any spices or seasoning and really just tasted like an expensive egg burrito. The portions themselves are also not anything crazy as the boys ate it in one sitting no problem but a lot of other places you typically get two meals out of the burrito. I also had to ask for salsa cups on the side, which they used to give, to see if that would add some sort of flavor and kick and the salsa itself was also bland. I was really underwhelmed with the food and don't think I'll be coming back anymore as it really doesn't compare to other breakfast joints where you can sit and enjoy the food as well. A bummer as phannys is a popular joint in the South Bay but has lost its great flavor and appeal over the years. read more
