"Pann’s is a space-age diner where Ladera Heights regulars, tourists on their way to LAX, and old friends who went to high school decades ago can be found eating biscuits and gravy on a Wednesday morning. Everything here exudes morning-time comfort: the hearty Southern-leaning food, the booths you sink into, and the existence of at least one waitress who will call you “hon.” Drop in for a stack of hotcakes, fried pork chops, or a tuna melt with a side of onion rings, but take time to soak in the atmosphere, too. You’ll feel like you’ve stepped onto a retro mid-century movie set (because it kind of is). Waffles, fried pork chop, patty melt" - brant cox, cathy park, garrett snyder, sylvio martins
