    Truly a gem for american fare in old Torrance. The food came out very quickly despite being a full house on a Friday night, the wings had a great kick, and the Mac and Cheese was deliciously cheesy. Great place for sharing plates as the portions are HUGE.

    Came here for the first time to eat lunch with a friend who has many years as a chef and restaurant owner. We were both very happy with the quality of the food and the service. He ordered the mahi-mahi and said it was very "tasty and well-prepared." I got the fried chicken and waffle which was delicious also. I am not a drinker but my buddy really enjoyed what they offered on tap. All in all, we liked this place very much, and loved the location in old Torrance. Recommend without hesitation!

    The food is good and the service can vary. My huge complaint is the swinging women's bathroom door. While I was washing my hands a lady swung the door open so hard and the handle hit me in my lower back. I literally yelled ow!! The door wiped me out good! The lady didn't even bother to apologize and rushed into the bathroom stall. It literally ruined my whole lunch and I was in so much pain. I was so upset about it and felt overwhelmed to talk to a staff member about it. Please fix the bathroom doors. It could've been a child or elderly person standing where I was.

    I can't believe time has gone by so fast So it's been a minute but I just had to remind everyone why this is such a great place to go to. Management is great and the staff is the reason I go, but now there are some new items I saw that are great. Some maybe not, but we won't talk about what lol. Really good food and really good concoctions! Just go and remember to tip your helpers
