    Used to have decent experiences here, but my most recent to-go order early Saturday evening was a complete joke. The younger staff were chattering like kindergarten kids, barely paying attention to customers. Then there’s the senior staff member (Asian guy with black eyeglasses), acted like a kindergarten principal, with smugness and condescension written all over his face. Maybe he thought he was too good for customer service.

    Great place to hang after a crappy (or even a great) day. Incredible happy hour prices too.

    Service here was excellent! I got the cheese curds and the bison burger. The cheese curds tbh reminded me of ones I could get back at home at cookout this is not dissing them in any way they were good, but the burger and fries were peak. The burgers here are charbroiled and my God was it juicy and delicious. The frys had a good crunch and had plenty of flavor. I didn't even get a picture before I finished my meal lol. Will be back if I can.

    Firstly, I’d like to commend our waitress, who was exceptionally nice and provided great service. Unfortunately, my experience with the food was disappointing. I ordered the walnut chicken sandwich, and the initial coleslaw salad I received tasted as though it had been stored too long and lacked freshness. I also tried the cucumber salad, but it too was wilted and tasted old. Overall, the quality of the food was not up to the standard I’ve experienced at your Torrance location. Because of this, I’ll be returning to the Torrance location in the future, even though it’s a bit of a drive from Paramount.

    I was in town for work and stopped here for dinner. The food was good, service was quick, and I really enjoyed it. I had the five cheese grilled cheese, and it was excellent. They also had a good house salad with red peppers and good dressings.
