If you're looking for a healthy fast food option, I highly recommend Urbane Cafe. I noticed all…read morethe outdoor seating. Large orange umbrellas and orange chairs. The first thing I saw when I walked through the door was the "Order Here," which I did. But if you're not technically inclined or want to place your order with a human being, you can do that, too. There was a gentleman behind the counter, ready to take orders. The self-serve ordering was pretty easy to use. I ordered the Mediterranean bowl and a bottle of spring water. You grab your own number, type it into the electronic ordering screen, pay, and find a table. There are more tables outdoors than inside. There are enough, but the tables are a little crowded inside, in terms of spacial location. There's a soda fountain machine located in the back. I found a table. My food and bottled water didn't take too long. My Mediterranean bowl was fresh and absolutely delicious. I was pleasantly surprised at how good it was. All fresh ingredients. The kale wasn't dry. The bread was fresh, but a little salty. Staff are friendly and efficient. I noticed they clear tables right away, after customers leave. Parking: Plenty of free, shared parking lot.

What a cute and innovative restaurant! We found ourselves in the area this morning for a doctors…read moreappointment and wanted to grab some breakfast after and found the amazing little place on Yelp - so glad we did! We talked to chef Julie who is the owner and she told us that they get all their ingredients from their local farm up on the mountain! ...so it's all literally farm fresh. She did not set out to have a restaurant, but her daughter talked her into it because she wanted a place to get their favorite coffee (and it's amazing)which they could only get in Silverlake, so she opened Bites and Bashes. You can really taste the love and meticulous attention to detail in this food! From the reviews we read, the breakfast burritos and pancakes were the standouts so we decided to do a split on both. We got the Pop's Pastrami breakfast burrito ($18.95) which is delicious pastrami, organic sauerkraut, eggs, crispy tater tots, provolone, scallions, house thousand island, and the secret standout ingredient - B&B's signature chopped pickles. I've never had pickles on a breakfast burrito but believe me when I say it was an amazing add and experience. The taste of this burrito came alive in my moth like a beautiful symphony orchestra giving attention to notes that you love but didn't know they played so well together! So great!! The second item we got was not on the menu but they had it featured in a displayed at the register where you order. It was the Banana Turo Pancakes ($16.95) and they were beautifully fantastic - in flavor and presentation. They are banana pancakes with salted caramel, crispy lumpia filletine, sautéed jackfruit and plantains. These pancakes were amazing! We also got vanilla lattes ($6.50) which are made with the beans of their favorite roaster and these lattes were wonderful. 5 glowing stars all the way around!! So glad we made it to Lomita this morning!

This place is very cute and is in the cutest area of Lomita! I don't think I have ever driven down…read morethis street before, which feels so cool. We started off our breakfast with delicious vanilla lattes (6.95). Perfectly made & not too sweet and hot and creamy. Delish coffee with a proper coffee machine. I wish I had a whole vat of that elixir! Then we moved onto the banana caramel Turo pancakes ($16.95) and the pops pastrami breakfast burrito ($18.95). Wow. The massive 3 stack of banana pancakes are visually a work of art and are so divine in taste. They remind me of a mochi pancake in the delightful light yet spongy texture and I am one picky pancake eater. We will be taking half home. The whole thing is drizzled in a sweet caramel sauce that is so yum. They have carmelized plantains on top as well as jackfruit. Chefs kiss. Onto the burrito. It is creamy, savory and sweet due to the best homemade pickles wedged in there (b&b signature chopped pickles) and has pastrami, eggs, taters, and sauces and other yum all rolled up. This place is really inventive and flavorful! Gaby was on point and did a great job running front of house. Chef Julie came out and we had a lovely convo with her. A lot of the food comes from a family farm that is run just up the hill! Her passion for food is obvious and she was quick to credit her amazing team. I can't wait to come back and try a salad with fresh veggies and other items. All in all, a great experience!

Great for parties!…read more Big shout out and thank you to Willy, Jake and the rest of the staff at Stonefire. We had a big family party here this past weekend, and it was a huge success. We ordered roughly 7 of their Stimulus Package meals, and that fed about 25 of us. Willy helped us place the order a head of time, so when we arrived, everything was just a ready to go, yet still hot/fresh out of the kitchen. Jake and crew were attentive and ready to help out whenever/wherever necessary. Every team member that brought out food and/or helped us remove empty plates was very friendly and accommodating. Thanks again Stonefire, we will be back again soon!

I ate here for the first time today. It was okay, but not great. The ambiance in the restaurant is…read morepretty nice. The staff was friendly. The prices are definitely fair for a restaurant in Southern CA. The main reason I deducted two stars is some of the food quality was severely lacking. First, the garlic mashed potatoes were definitely super old and likely reheated many times. While they tasted okay, there was a thick dark brown hard crust on a big portion of them. Kind of like they have been cooked/reheated in a giant pan, the bottom layer had burnt, and they still scooped that out and served it to customers. It's pretty crazy because they could've just not put that in the bowl and I would've been fine. Also, I'm not sure about the green onions they put on them, that seems kinda odd. The pulled pork sandwich is what caused me to deduct another star. The bun was just like they pulled the bun out of a bag from the store and served it as is. It wasn't buttered or toasted or anything. It was just a very plain bun. There is not a lot of meat on the sandwich either. So when you bite into it, 80% of what's in your mouth is unseasoned plain bun. If they would've at least done something to the bun, the sandwich would've been a lot better. I think 3/5 stars is the perfect score for this place. I will likely try it again, but if the food quality is not better next time, it will be my last.

The chicken and rice were still piping hot when I picked it up and the Greek salad was fresh. Loved the thick pieces of feta cheese they topped and the dressing is garlicky, citrusy and creamy too. The Honey Pita Chips with pistachio are a hit too! It served as a perfect dessert for a larger order. The staff were on top of things! Really nice and explained what was what in the bags and containers. The place is kind of small. Best for takeout.

Lisa's Café & Bakery is one of my longtime favorite spots in Torrance! I've been coming here since…read morehigh school, and after all these years, I finally felt it was time to show them some love with a review. They have such a great variety of food, and I've been slowly working my way through the menu. One of their standout items is their chicken salad! The salad is delicious, but the dressing is what really makes it special. It's one of those meals that keeps you coming back for more. I also love their daily specials, especially the Garlic Basil Salmon served with mashed potatoes and sautéed vegetables. It's so delicious and makes for a satisfying meal! Their Crispy Chicken Sandwich and Italian Sandwich are also great choices. I just tried their BLT today, so I'm excited to see how that one compares to my other favorites! And we cannot forget the desserts! Their mini New York cheesecake is such a good little treat, and their raspberry tart is SO GOOD. If you have a sweet tooth, definitely save some room for dessert. They also have really good lemonades that pair nicely with a meal. Beyond the food, I really appreciate the overall atmosphere. The café is cute, cozy, and consistently clean, and the staff have always been friendly and welcoming. The prices are reasonable, too, which makes it a great option when you want a delicious meal without spending too much. Overall, Lisa's Café & Bakery is a longtime favorite of mine for a reason. They offer a wonderful variety of salads, sandwiches, daily specials, desserts, and drinks, with something for just about everyone. After years of coming here, I can confidently say this is a spot I'm happy to keep supporting. If you're in Torrance and haven't tried it yet, I definitely recommend stopping by!

We were thrilled to see a few menu options that were marked as vegan. Bonus points for being affordable! I completely missed their attached parking lot when I arrived and ended up parking across the street in the neighborhood, where there was ample free parking. When we arrived, the restaurant was about half full and there was live music occurring on the patio. We opted to sit inside where it was a little less noisy and there was a comfy and cozy booth calling our name. The vibe was great, with fun and eclectic decor. The service was really upbeat and friendly and our server was so kind and helpful. We asked him if the espresso martini had dairy in it (which I just discovered that is a thing at some places) and he double checked with the bartender to ensure there wasn't my dairy in it! I ordered that alongside a falafel wrap I must say, both of these worked so well together. The espresso martini was light and refreshing yet still had a bold flavor. The falafel was nice and crispy with a delectable inside and the tahini sauce was so rich and creamy. The meal felt indulgent yet hearty all at the same time. I left feeling so uplifted and relaxed all at the same time. Despite it being on the noisier side, I was still able to hear my friend well and it was such a great place for us to catch up. I would highly recommend this restaurant and would definitely return the next time I'm in the area!

We had a really good time here watching the Western Conference Finals! My husband had the lemon…read morepepper wings which he enjoyed, and 2 beers. I ordered the pastrami on rye (basically a Reuben) which was good. I wish it had more meat and it was half sliced, half chopped. Theirs seems to be all chopped up and crisped, which gives it a nice texture and almost bacon-y vibe. Messy but good. I had a side salad which was also good. Overall our meal was great and there were TVs visible from anywhere you sat, which is perfect for a sports bar. My big gripe is being charged $1 for pickles to go with a sandwich. Maybe you get more if they put them directly on the sandwich, but they forgot mine so the pickles came in a ramekin. 6 pickle slices for $1.

Kelly's Korner is one of those really fun cafés, not just because of the great food they serve, but…read morealso because of the location. Kelly's is located in what once was the Rolling Hill General Store. This business was established in the 30s, and Kelly's took over the location in the mid 1980s.

Everything is made with quality ingredients and a little bit of love. It's always a tasty place to grab that interesting something. With the offer is a good selection of salads, sandwiches, some pizza on French bread, pastries, along with some ice cream and other stuff like that. They really have a very good menu. There's really a lot of choices. And, from my experience, it's all really tasty. In terms of atmosphere, this business is really well put together. They have a number of very nice interior tables, if you want to stay out of the elements. Plus, they have a number of outdoor tables, if you wanna get that picnic vibe while enjoying your meal and/or drink. This business is located right off of PV Drive North. So, if you don't know the area, you may not know where it is. But, you can always GPS it. It's really worth the drive. Overall, this is a fun place to eat or grab that latte or other drink. It has a great atmosphere, both indoors and out. Great place!
