Disclaimer: As a veteran African American teacher, I will provide reviews especially when service is subpar as well as embedded in stereotypical misconceptions of African American people…..This is why telling the true history of African Americans in our history books is so critical to healing America. I have bought take out as well as dined in several times at The Pan, Gardena. I have opted to eat here because it is my neighborhood restaurant, the food is tasty and hearty for the price. I decided to celebrate my 54th birthday, July 8th with my family, friends and my pool family at the Gardena location; this was my second time encountering the Manager waitress…..My internal instinct did not f...
This is the perfect spot for brunch! Everything is absolutely delicious and outstanding – I've never had a disappointing dish here. The menu features some incredibly creative options. The peanut butter pancakes, guava pancakes, tiramisu pancakes, and loaded hash browns are all fantastic. The only challenging aspect of visiting can be the parking and wait times during busy periods. However, they now have multiple locations, which I haven't tried yet. I visited on a weekday and was pleased to find that there was no wait. The parking situation includes less than 15 spots in the lot, but street parking is available if you're willing to walk a short distance. Be prepared for longer wait times dur...
This was our first visit to the restaurant, and it was quite disappointing. From the moment we arrived, the waitstaff were rude and seemed to lack any customer service skills. I noticed another reviewer mentioning a cart that’s just sitting there, and I have to agree—it not only smells bad, but we were seated right next to it, which was unpleasant and unsanitary. The space is also very cramped, making it extremely crowded and uncomfortable, with no sense of personal space. Overall, it was just a really unfortunate experience.
Food was delicious but my breakfast potatoes fell flat on flavor, pancakes were amazing, my biscuits and gravy were disappointing. Biscuit was a wafer and just didnt wow me. I was expecting an old fashion type of biscuit but received a wafer with limited gravy like what?? Flood those things w gracy baby!! Pancakes and eggs were amazing though! Parking: Good luck

I visited Los Angeles for the weekend, and while shopping and enjoying a spa, I stopped by The Pan on Saturday. I must say, it was truly fantastic! Everything I tried was delicious. The lemon pancakes were a perfect 10/10, and the shrimp and grits also earned a 10/10. The chicken breast was cooked to perfection, and the loaded hash browns were great as well.
It was average, I got the Lumberjack my gf got Biscuits and gravy breakfast. The house potatoes were bland, pancakes were delicious. The Biscuits tasted like frozen Biscuits, we had high expectations but it wasn't what we expected. Next time I will get a regular coffee, I got an iced mocha and it was way too sweet.
My meal was cold I ordered the french toast meal and cold french toast is not cool but you can tell the meal was made with quality ingredients but yet and still my plate and the food were cold.
Every time we passed by, we saw a line formed in front of the restaurant. So we stopped by recently. I ordered the original loaded hash browns . It was just okay.

EXCELLENT brunch spot. Large portions, yummy food. Gets very busy. Parking: Lot is full when busy. Most days street parking is available
It's good food small location expect a wait super small parking but if you come prepared it's worth the wait
