This spot is smaller than the original King's Hawaiian restaurant. When you first walk in you will either go in the "ordered ahead" line or the "place your order here" line. Both lines are very short. When I arrived I was waiting at the door with only 4-5 people ahead of me. However, despite the cramped space, the line moved fast. There were 3 front house workers taking orders and they were pretty efficient. Both bakery cases were pretty full so I wasn't limited to ordering baked goods. I ordered pumpkin muffins, blueberry muffins, a couple mochi donuts, and a paradise slice. The mochi donuts were so yummy and chewy. It's better than most chain mochi donut places. The muffins were moist. My mom's favorite is the pumpkin. Although limited in space, a nice place to get something sweet. Next time I'll order off their food menu.

1st time checking out this place never new they had it and I was really impressed I didn't order from the food menu but they have a pretty big selection. I only had a iced coffee and slice of a cake and they were really good . I was working making a delivery and went inside to wash my hands and seen the bakery inside so i had to try them and I'm glad i did , I'm definitely coming back to try the lunch menu and other pastries.

Love the light and tasty saimin, no matter hot or cold outside! Plantations chicken is crunchy on the outside, juicy and soft inside. Fruit tart, paradise cake (large one w/friit), apple turn over are all delicious. Comfy casual atmosphere, like a familiar home.

Stop by to pick up some desserts for an event. We were not disappointed, everything was scrumptious. Customer service was great!

The food is more appetizing than the facade or your worst fast food experience. They have a number system for table service that works well and the employees have a positive attitude with a purpose of work. The drip coffee taste very well and my French Toast taste like it came from a $28 five star Michelin rated establishment. I will come back and try everything on the menu when convenient.

This small version of Kings Hawaiian is good to go to so you don't have to drive into Torrance. We got a combo plate and Saimin and were not disappointed. Service was fast and courteous. Food was fresh and hot. Would have liked some sort of sauce to go with the fried Hawaiian chicken. Grabbed some malasadas to go and they were pretty good.

Food is amazing and reasonable prices. Mac nut onion rings are fire and katsu is yummy but needs a little more seasoning. I didn't order it today but their oxtail soup is delicious! Service is average, some of the workers are good and tip of things and some are ok. Ambiance reminds me of Hawaii. You walk up to order with the workers or the pos system. Then they bring the food to your seat. Will come back, thank you!

One of my favorite place! The fried rice with island fried chicken is my favorite! Pastry wise is always the paradise cake!

I have eaten at this location many times most often after I visit the Honda Dealer. They have parking on site and off street parking and it's located off 190th and Western. It's a neat and clean restaurant the staff is pretty chill and you can order takeout or sit in at the table. There's a large display of desserts delicious including Hawaiian cakes cream puffs pies cookies and so much more ( see my pics). I usually get the same thing rarely venturing outside of my box I love the kalbi ribs potato salad and Hawaiian fried chicken these are so good next up I want to try the oxtail soup. My order. Plantation Fried Chicken - lightly seasoned and crispy served on shredded cabbage a scoop of rice and potato salad a favorite of mine it's so good Potato/macaroni salad it's creamy and seasoned well I can taste garlic and pepper I like the combination of potatoes and macaroni so much it's my new favorite. Steamed Rice is standard nothing special I added soy sauce and made it work. Pineapple Oatmeal Cookies - these are the best oatmeal cookies I have ever eaten their chewy deliciousness. Paradise Cake - this three layer slice of cake is the bomb tender and moist very fruity I love it so much on my birthday I order a whole cake it's truly amazing. Their Guava Cake is absolutely delicious be sure and order a slice or two to go you will thank me. Hawaiian rolls pack of 4 I paid $2.49 and they were not in my bag that really annoyed me I'm obviously not trying back from Long Beach to get them. I want my money back! Fountain Pepsi Strong sweet and ice cold just the way I like it. My opinion. I recommend you to try this restaurant especially if you want to try something different a Hawaiian staple did called spam musubi & loco moco is very tasty and they have so many more interesting foods including desserts drinks teas and snacks that you can enjoy they also sell shirts small food items and products they look pretty good. Until next time take care friend. . Just me Shawn C.

So, over a decade later, I noticed that I've been back more than enough times to warrant updating how I feel about The Local Place. And as you can see, my feelings have changed. I don't really dine in - I stop in to take things for take out - quick and easy. Like yesterday, stopped in for some bread to make sliders with pulled pork with the team at work. Other times, for bakery items. All the visits, were so different from my initial experience that a part of me really does feel that maybe it was just a really bad day for the staff on the day that I stopped in for lunch. But back to the subsequent visits. The counter staff is awesome. Helpful. Friendly. Courteous. Welcoming. I could go on and on but know that management is hiring and training right. At least with the staff I've encountered on my visits. Anyway, I don't know if the food has improved as every visit, it's virtually empty and the bakery is hopping. I contemplated trying dining in again however, when I'm craving food from back home, I forget about this place. But when I want bakery items, this is the place for me.
