Food awesome, great service and ambiance. Definitely, must go and try breakfast. All items are wonderful.

To begin with The Pan has a delicious two egg breakfast, two bacons,a slice of toast,hashbrowns or potatoes for a whopping $16, absolutely overpriced! With serving only two pieces bacon. This is just my opinion and experience with plenty of breakfast spots. The shrimp and grits are very good,and you do get a healthy portion, but for 20 plus dollars,it does not come with any breads at all,but you have the option of ordering separately at an additional cost! The ambiance is bright and refreshing,restrooms clean,and plenty of parking in lot(formly the Sizzler). I happen to attend on a Monday evening for bingo it was really fun! I won twice that evening, your first card is complimentary with a $10 purchase of something,thereafter,the cards are $5 per game. You get to spend a winners wheel for lots of prizes, including cash! Now I ordered a pastrami sandwich,and when I tell you it was disgusting, it was awful,the meat was fried to a crisp,I thought it would be steamed pastrami meat(my bad)! It also came with grilled onions,if you happen to go for onions on your pastrami sandwich. I chose sweet potato fries,which tasted like they were cooked in meat grease! Just horrible! I will never order that again! Will I return and try other items from the menu,yes, the pastrami sandwich just isn't the right choice for me, you may like it lol! With that being said let me know you guys thoughts on it when you go! read more

My first experience and wow I'll be back Everything was top notch, service was friendly and attentive, the whole place was really clean, and the food was excellent This location has a dinner menu that I should've taken a photo of, I got the braised short rib with mashed potatoes, glazed carrots, and mac and cheese. This made the entire experience worth it alone, the meat was so tender and easy to chew, the mashed potatoes are so buttery they are probably the best mashed potatoes I've ever had in my life and the way they mix with the sauce and the meat and the glaze from the carrots which were also amazing. The mac and cheese was so hot by the time I finished the meal I still couldn't taste it so I brought it home and it was delicious as a leftover snack. I got 2 mocktails the blueberry spritzer and the pinky winky ( mint strawberry lemonade ) both were $8 and worth it so refreshing. I got the strawberry short cake to go and it was the perfect ending to a literal perfect experience that only happened by such a small chance that it was meant to be, I will be back I love this place 10/10 I will give yelp access to my photos just so I can show you guys what I was working with read more

The Pan - Braised Short Rib and extra side of Mac n cheese - Pizza Near Me - Long Beach, California

Food was good, so many fusion options to choose from beside a typical boring breakfast spot. I would come back to try again. The only thing the wait to get my order in and food out was longer than expected. read more

Ambiance: Very colorful, designed like a mom & pop breakfast spot. Service: I was disappointed with the service provided, our waitress was nice but she failed to come check on our party. We literally had to get up to find her. In addition, she let our plates pile up and forgot items that we ordered. Food: All pancakes were dry and hard to cut. Omelette was not seasoned, however the orange juice was freshly squeezed, and the fried battered chicken was delicious! I may give The Pan another try. read more

Located on Del Amo Blvd and Long Beach Blvd, this location is quite popular and was crowded when I visited - Wednesday mid-morning. There is a parking lot behind the restaurant that unfortunately was full which required us to wait 5 or so mins for someone to leave. Our party of 3 had a 30min wait for a table so we opted to sit at the counter. We were greeted right away with menus from our server. She took our drink and food order right away and our items were actually delivered in a timely manner. We chose The Lumberjack ($20) which comes with two buttermilk pancakes, two eggs any style, two bacon strips, two sausages, and house potatoes. You do have the option to upgrade to a specialty pancake or waffle for an additional $2. Portions are generous and everything was cooked perfectly, including the over-easy eggs. We opted for hash browns instead of house potatoes. Hash browns were crispy and what I really appreciated was the bacon was cooked thoroughly - no fatty pieces like how a lot of other places serve. The PANCAKES, oh my goodness! They are SO. FRICKEN. DELICIOUS. They were fluffy, buttery, and just the right amount of sweetness - these are a must try! Two pancakes and a scoop of butter - my absolute favorite item of the whole meal. We also chose the "Original" Loaded Hash Browns ($18) which is two eggs any style served on top of hash browns, bacon, sausage, and sprinkled with jack and cheddar cheese and topped with sour cream, green onions, and thennnnn, drizzled with chili aioli. Greasy, meaty, goodness! It is a lot of food for the price so make sure to come hungry. Overall, this place is quite popular as I remember like 8 or so years ago they only had like one location in Gardena and now we're up to 5! Service wasn't great at the end. We never were checked on by our initial server who took our order after the food was delivered and we waited 10 or so mins once we were done eating to get a to-go box and our check. I had to get up and approach the service area to finally close out my bill. I do know that every place in every type of industry (food, hospitality, hospitals, etc.) are understaffed but what I didn't like was there were other staff members standing around. IMO, they could circulate and fill in gaps with service - such as, clearing tables, refilling beverages, asking if tables needed anything - things to help out the servers! Delicious food options but don't visit if you're in a rush! read more

The wait here was quite long even on a weekday afternoon. The party in front of us actually spoke to the manager because the hostess was quite rude and dismissive to him regarding the wait and any information about that.  Once I got sat and actually ate, it was your standard kitschy brunch spot. What I got: Pastrami Fries, Biscuits and Gravy, Loaded Hashbrowns. Everything was fine. Again, it looks and tastes like every other brunch spot in California. I don;t really like breakfast/brunch food like that, but it really was just fine.  I'm assuming that you could get similar levels of food for less of a wait at other places, so I would probably just recommend your favorite local diner. This was good if you have a bit of time to kill with your party. Nothing special though. read more

I ordered the bananas foster French toast with scrambled eggs and turkey bacon. I also ordered a chai tea and an adult beverage. All of it was delicious. The service was quick and attentive. Although extremely busy and hard to find parking on a Friday afternoon but it was still a comfortable vibe. I would return to this location. read more

This is my spot for breakfast. Whenever we wanna eat really good breakfast. This is my wife's favorite Breakfast Location. We've never been here for bingo night since we were both off and had time we came in for dinner to play some bingo. It was pretty cool. We'll come back again.its way more empty at nights for sure so they kept checking up on us often. The host was nice also she did a really good job hosting the bingo game . read more

The Pan has been recommended to me by a few people so I went in with high hopes. There were some recommendations made, but the only recs we followed were the Blueberry Lemon and guava pancakes. The real star of the show was the Guava n Cream Pancakes! I'd go back time and time again for them. We also had the green chile hash (which was good), the kielbasa omelet (there were a ton of bell peppers which took over the flavor), French toast breakfast (pretty standard, nothing amazing) and the lemon blueberry pancakes (house made lemon butter was so dang good, but we didn't really care for the pancake itself). The place was really busy, and our waitress still gave amazing service! Overall, I'd go again... but this time order the meals that were recommended. read more

Did an online order for pickup on a Sunday. It was packed inside. They sent me a text saying it was now ready. That was much earlier than expected. Was expecting everything to be all good. Food was much better this time... But they forgot an order, so we had to come back. They actually forgot to make the pizza in the first place. Will I be back? No. Would I recommend? The food is good, not great, so probably not. read more

This place is the bee's knees; everything is good about it, from the food to the service to the community.

Today was my first time at The Pan, I've always seen lines outside so I was finally able to try it. I get the hype. Very friendly staff and clean and cute inside. They had a lot of bar drinks that looked amazing and I'll try next time. We got the guava and cream pancakes and the lumberjack. The pancakes were perfect, no notes. A solid dinner style place with delicious food read more

I'm going to start it simple, WOW! I came with my family for a simple breakfast and can't believe this is down the street. We were seated immediately on a fairly packed Sunday and got our mimosas within maybe 5 minutes. We split a bottle, which was not that bad! Every single item of food was GREAT, made to order, and was aesthetically pleasing. I personally got the Kielbasa Scramble and absolutely devoured it! They also have some pretty good specials that my family and I are going to take advantage of for weeks to come. Can't wait to come back! read more

We've been wanting to try this place so we finally had a chance and luckily we arrived and just missed the morning crowd. We were really excited to try this place as it always has a crowd waiting. Unfortunately, we had such a horrible experience. We were ignored most of the time we were there. No one checked on us. Had to flag down a server to take our order after waiting and never greeted. She seemed really annoyed when we asked for utensils...I mean...we need it to eat our food. I could go on and on as it was shocking. But my experience was horrible...and yes, I still tipped. The food was tasty but the lack of service really hindered us from enjoying the food. read more

Food is seriously delicious! I went two more times after my introduction and have not been let down yet. The server are polite but I believe they need a hostess that is more aware of the importance of evenly placing customers so their servers can maintain appropriate, well paced attentiveness. My first time, my group was placed near the door w/o being asked what our preference was. The server checked on us so often that it was obvious we were expected to hurry up, eat, and leave. The second time it was just myself and another person during the slow time of day. Once again placed by the door and rarely checked on that we were forgotten. It seems as though service and seating is becoming a lost art for but if taken seriously, it would really strengthen the restaurants quality. The food has the ability to draw the customers, but one mishandled service can ruin it forever. The first time I dined there I had the short rib Benedict and was in pure heaven. The second time I had a traditional American breakfast, pancakes and scrambled eggs, bacon, hash and was equally pleased, well nourished, delighted by the quality of the food. The Pan puts other chain breakfast spots to shame and I pray the stick their current formula with the food, provide their servers with professional training, and hire a host/hostess who embodies class and a specific expertise on how to make every customer feel special and be intentional about coming back again and again and again...I'm rooting for this spot! read more

Visited the new location and it was okay.the prices didn't match the food quality. The food looked good however the taste was a miss. Service was great and as good as you could get during Sunday rush hour. It's great for big groups and parties. I would visit again, it's just not high on the priority list. read more

I really hate to give this place two stars but it just wasn't worth the hype. I love a good diner style restaurant so I just knew I would love it yet here I am not impressed. Fun fact about this place the building used to be sizzler back in the day. Only OG Long Beach kids know about that! Anywho.. the food was average. I ordered the chicken and waffles and side of house potatoes and orange juice. My potatoes were yummy, orange juice very tasty, French toast was mid, and my first order of chicken was undercooked. After getting my undercooked chicken I was over it especially after the wait to seat and receive food. The restaurant itself is pretty decent in size. There is enough space to move around and places to sit without feeling cluttered unlike most restaurants nowadays. There is bar seating with TVs to watch your fav sports game, tables, and booths. They have a pretty big menu so there is more than enough options for everyone. The service was good and our server particularly was very nice and accommodating to the issues with certain items ordered at our table. Prices for menu items were standard for a brunch spot and the portion sizes were great. This place seems to be a local favorite so if coming on a weekend be sure to come early or you will be waiting. Although it wasn't my favorite place thus far, it's not the worst. Stop in and give them a try and see for yourself. read more

Newer Pan location. Maybe this place was over-hyped and my experience didn't live up to it? For starters, they don't open until 9am, which for me is late (and thankful I didn't drag my early riser husband with me). After I was seated, the place really started to fill up with a wait when I left. Not sure if this was a sign of a popular place or the wait was created by the extremely slow service and table turnover. They seemed to be understaffed. I overtipped the server as I suspect that was the case and she was very friendly and working hard. I had to ask several times before my coffee was refilled, and note I was never offered a refill, a first! My server had to refill it after I asked two other servers (including the one that brought out my food). I had ordered water at the same time I ordered coffee and never got it. The server was training a new person, so figured she thought he took care of it. The food, I ordered The Lumberjack ($20 + $2 upgrade) - two eggs, bacon and sausages, home fries and either two Pancakes or upgrade to specialty pancakes or plain waffle. I upgraded to the waffle and it was just okay, nothing special. The syrup sits with the other condiments on the tables, and the restaurant inside was extremely cold, therefore the syrup was cold as well. Maybe warm or room temp syrup would have improved the waffle experience? The poached Eggs were done just right but difficult to eat without a spoon, not served with a spoon. I finally used my coffee spoon and then my used fork when my coffee refill finally arrived. The rest of the fare was standard. Again, not amazing food. There is a lot of breakfast competition around in this same area of Long Beach. For the prices and food, we definitely will go elsewhere. We routinely go out most tweekends for breakfast. I was trying this out as a new option, back to our regular places! read more

I had the two egg combo , I chose the ham as my protein. I chose to upgrade from roster to a waffle. The dish is served with country potatoes ( potatoes O'Brien) I chose poached medium for the eggs and all arrived as ordered . The ham was a ham loaf ( cure 81) but had good flavor . I was greeted and seated with no wait the restaurant was busy and nearly every seat was taken. This location was once a Sizzler it was remodeled to be a mid century modern dinner . Compared to the former location this is huge it lacks some of the quirkiness it has no patio . By the time I complete my meal there was a small wait list. Service was excellent. This location has a counter area . Serves beer &wine and offers a happy hour. Parking is in a private lot . Oddly the former Sizzler's sign is still standing next to Long Beach Boulevard. read more

Thursday brunch was perfect!!! Parking was super easy with multiple vacancies. Walked in, greeted by the host and was seated right away.

Our ultimate favorite was the extra crispy loaded hash browns with egg whites. Can't wait to come back again. read more

I've been to The Pan twice so far, and both times I really enjoyed the food. I've tried their deep dish pizza -- it's not the best I've ever had, but it's definitely good enough to satisfy a deep dish craving.

I don't go often, but whenever I'm in the mood for the kind of comfort food they serve, The Pan is a place I'd gladly return to. read more

(PSA: Im a huge yelper) The ambiance here is actually pretty nice since it gives like a lil old school diner vibes but the food was pretty good given the fact they had a huge variety of breakfast options (Im a huge breakfast guy). What stood out to me was the service (I sat at the bar) my server made sure I was well served which I take into consideration especially when it gets busy and there's huge group parties. Overall it's a little pricey but I would definitely recommend this place and would love to dine here again read more
