Review of Rex's Cafe at 2136 S Pacific Ave, San Pedro, CA 90731-5922

I really look forward to weekend breakfast at Rex’s. It’s a welcoming place where the locals gather for breakfast. Many of us walk there because parking can be a challenge, but once you’re there, it’s all good!The friendly staff will keep your cup full of the b...

Review of Black Cow Cafe at 2219 Honolulu Ave, Montrose, CA 91020-1635

by elspie:

The Black Cow cafe makes some of the most wonderful brunch foods ever! Their waffles are divine, and everything they serve is fresh and beautiful. Their coffee is delicious, and they also have an espresso bar. Be prepared to wait up to 45 minutes for weekend brunch, but the wait is pleasant...

Malibu, CA: Duke's Malibu - "Quiet, relaxed, romantic"

2007-02-08T17:27:23-08:00

Review of Duke's Malibu at 21150 Pacific Coast Hwy, Malibu, CA 90265

by elspie:

Duke’s is named in honor of Duke Kahanamoku, the father of surfing, and was begun in Hawaii. The food, as well as the laid-back atmosphere are as authentic as it gets! At dinner, it’s “nice casual” dress; for lunch, you’ll be fine in jeans. They also serve a g...

Review of L & L Hawaiian BBQ at 18657 Devonshire St, Northridge, CA 91324-1310

by elspie:

Hawaiian Plate Lunch at its finest! If you’re not familiar, “plate lunch” is basically Hawaiian fast food, and it’s DELICIOUS! At L & L, plate lunch includes whatever entree you choose, fragrant jasmine rice, and their very unique and yum...

San Pedro, CA: The Whale & Ale - "Truly authentic English Pub Food"

2007-02-07T09:10:59-08:00

Review of The Whale & Ale at 327 W 7th St, San Pedro, CA 92401

by elspie:

If you’ve been to England, you know that most “English pubs” in America are sorry excuses for the real thing. The Whale & Ale is a definite exception! When you walk in, your nose is filled with the tantalizing scent of hot, fresh bread (which is delicious beyond descrip...

San Pedro, CA: Omelette and Waffle Shop - "Worth eating, not worth the wait"

2007-02-07T08:55:27-08:00

Review of Omelette and Waffle Shop at 1103 S GAFFEY ST, San Pedro, CA 90731-4035

by elspie:

The Omelette and Waffle Shop does some very creative and yummy things with their omelettes and with good ol’ Krusteaz waffle mix. The place is old, funky, cramped, and sticky. The service is slow and mildly surly, and you will need to be somewhat…um…proactive, if you want ...

Woodland Hills, CA: Pizza Cookery - "Best Pizza in the Valley"

2007-02-06T19:03:35-08:00

Review of Pizza Cookery at 6209 Topanga Canyon Blvd, Woodland Hills, CA 91367-2213

by elspie:

The food here is awesome. The service is a little slow, and the wait can be quite long, but you can call ahead to be placed on the wait list for a table. The good news is that once you have a table, you can have a nice leisurely meal, and they never rush you. This place is...

Northridge, CA: Brent's Deli - "Great Food, Lots of it!"

2007-02-06T18:52:04-08:00

Review of Brent's Deli at 19565 Parthenia St, Northridge, CA 91324-3406

by elspie:

Brent’s is really good Jewish deli food. The portions are GI-NORMOUS so plan to share dishes! I’ve never met anyone who could finish one of their sandwiches alone, and I know some pretty hearty eaters! The place is usually packed for weekend bre...

San Pedro, CA: Canetti's Seafood Grotto - "Old San Pedro "

2007-02-06T18:30:34-08:00

Review of Canetti's Seafood Grotto at 309 E 22nd St, San Pedro, CA 90731-7209

by elspie:

It’s hard to explain why I give this restaurant 5 stars, because it’s old and funky, and sometimes, the hash browns taste like fish. The first time we went there, my boyfriend remarked that it was like having a meal with his Italian family. It is run by an Italia...
