Can't go wrong with Norm's when you are jonesing for breakfast at dinner time. Halfway decent coffee (a bit bitter) and really good pancakes. I had the loaded hash browns but only the outsides were cooked to a golden brown. The addition of the green onion made all the difference. The eggs were just so so; bacon was crispy and not too greasy. Pancakes outshined all of the other food. Great service. Courteous and efficient (Carolina?) accurate and good on refills of coffee and ice tea. We were just happy to find a place that was open late on a Sunday. It's a diner..the seat and table were a little sticky but I cleaned it off with my water. Wasn't too busy so it was pretty quiet. We were hungry and Norm's breakfast did the trick!

Jose E was our customer service All Star here. Came with a friend and ordered the porterhouse steak, some scrambled eggs, a pancake, and subbed out the hash browns with a small ranch salad. Jose E was a true delight, and should you happen upon this particular norms you'll definitely want to ask for him.

First time! Of course, I was familiar with the place vis-a-vie Pulp Fiction movie but was surprised how good this 24/7 restaurant is! The menu is EXTENSIVE but INEXPENSIVE. We ordered a Patty Melt sandwich and Chicken Fried Steak platter. I got my Patty Melt with tater tots. Well, the Patty Melt was delivered on crisp and buttery rye bed with SUPER HOT and SUPER CRISP tater tots. Wonderful. My friend got the chicken dinner and loved it. Came with country gravy and he also ordered a side of sauted mushrooms. It was all so good and all so reasonable. Place was sparkling clean and service was friendly and efficient. I'll be back!

Good old Norms, you can never go wrong it here. They have great specials and all around good food!!! The best place for delicious food, uplifting environment and great servers. Today's order- Gobble, gobble breakfast which includes scrambled eggs, turkey bacon and sausage three each, hash browns, which I normally get loaded with turkey bacon. I also ordered iced coffee with caramel chocolate syrup which is delicious!! Thank you Winnie for your Normstastic service!!! You are awesome, efficient and a sweetheart!!!

Norms is my go-to breakfast spot in Torrance.it is comfort food The service has always been exceptional My server today was Uriel, He had given us really good service and he was attentive. We never had to call him over to our table. He came by to refill my coffee and asked if we had needed anything else . My country fried steak had taken sooo good. It was tender , not overcooked. My eggs were cooked over-medium. Just the way I like them. Overall the experience was excellent. Your are better eating at Norms than paying for an overpriced McDonald' s breakfast. Tip, if you have a disability,the cooks will cut your meat for you. The waiter will open your sugar packets and your creamer for you, if you are not able to it yourself. Sometimes I may give a 5* review for the Above and Beyond Service a restaurant will give me. You just need to be polite, smile and ask.

Friendly staff and Nice atmosphere. Food was good. Never dissappoint a travelor. Norms is an iconic place to stop by and grab a bite to eat. My parents use to bring us here to eat on any given sunday after church. They have a generous menu with all the classic breakfast and lunch food. Dinner can be very satisfying, if you stop for dinner. Safe menu for your money.

The Service: Our server, Irina was such a sweetheart. Very efficient and attentive. The Food: Love their weekdays combo meal. Awesome deals! Good varieties of choices. We tried their summer boba drinks, definitely kids favorite. Free refills too. The Parking: Private parking lot
