Super good! Hey we loved checking this place out, who doesn't love Hawaiian food? They have a neat fish tank and some merch to buy if you'd like as well which is fun. The food was really good, very solid beef, chicken, rice, and salad too! They serve very good desserts and tons of pastries. The parking is right outside, and they have restrooms there as well. 10/10 reccomend, very friendly staff and decently quick service!

What a gem! I came to buy a Paradise Cake and decided to get dinner to go too. The food was great, super fresh and really reasonably priced. The staff was great. The restaurant was really clean. They have seating to stay and eat but not like the bigger Kings Hawaiian restaurants, more like self serve dinning but it's still really nice. Definitely worth trying.

Their Hawaiian sweet rolls and rainbow cake are well known - the rainbow cake has a light, Asian-style sponge texture and isn’t overly sweet. The Dobash cake was also excellent, rich but not too sweet, and the Dole Whip had a nice sweet-and-tangy balance. For five people, we ordered the Ohana combo ($60). The fried rice was average, but the fried pork chop was pretty good. Overall, it’s a great spot for a casual meal and desserts. 📍 The Local Place Bakery and Cafe 18605 S Western Ave, Torrance, CA 90504

THEY HAVE A BEAUTIFUL FISH AQUARIUM!! No need to drive all the way to King’s Hawaiian on Sepulveda, The Local Place has many of the same bakery items, and they’re just as delicious! I ordered the Kama‘aina Plate with three entrées (beef, kalua pork, and chicken katsu), all perfectly cooked and full of flavor. I couldn’t leave without something from the bakery! I purchased a slice of pumpkin cake with a rich orange icing and a piece of bread pudding, both absolutely fantastic. I also met Amethyst, the manager, who was such a sweetheart and provided outstanding customer service. My only small critique is that I wish the same friendliness she shows could be reflected a bit more by the rest of the staff, especially at the register. Overall, a great experience, I can’t wait to go back for more bakery treats and another delicious meal!

King's Hawaiian is local staple in the South Bay. I grew up having their wonderful Paradise Cakes for special occasions and the taste always reminds me of sunny summer birthdays. My favorites treats include the sweet rolls, rainbow bread slices, guava cake, and paradise cake. They also have wonderful pies, crinkle cookies, fruit tarts, and pineapple dole whip. They also have a large savory menu that is worth a try. Definitely worth a detour and visit!
