The San Franciscan 2520 Sepulveda Boulevard, Torrance, CA 90505

"Everything was good. Good, people, atmosphere. But the food came out a little slower than expected. So plan ahead."

"A local favorite! The restaurant has an old school vibe, nothing fancy. Great food and good prices. Live band and karaoke on certain nights. Variety of items on the menu: appetizers, pastas, salads, chicken, seafood, pork chop and steaks but most come here for their specialty - PRIME RIB! Their prime rib is delicious! Medium rare is the way to go. Available in 3 different cuts: House Special (1/2 lb), Franciscan Cut (3/4 lb) and Diamond Jim (19 oz) and is served with your choice of soup or salad and side (baked potato, steak fries, fresh vegetables or rice). For appetizers, I recommend the breaded clam strips, battered green beans and sautéed mushrooms. The complimentary sourdough bread is good. Friendly service and there is plenty of parking. Give this place a try when you're in the area."

"I came here around 5pm with my boyfriend. I have never eaten here before and we have been disappointed by other local steak houses. We were pleasantly surprised by the food. I ordered the New York and he ordered the ribeye. It was cooked perfectly and we had leftovers for the next day! The restaurant is nicely maintained for it being an older establishment. Service could have been a little faster- the waiter seemed to prefer to go to a larger party across from us even though we arrived earlier than them. It got crowded really quickly and it went from a nicer quiet restaurant to a noisy one within an hour. When we tried to leave, it took a while for the waiter to notice us. I should have just gotten up and paid the host myself. Other than the service, the food was good. Not sure if I would come here again at the same time."
