Truxton's American Bistro — Restaurant in Torrance

Update review, November 2024: Great place for breakfast, weekdays and weekends! We arrived on a weekd day morning and we were seated immediately.

I ordered the START YOUR DAY RIGHT BOWL: Brown rice studded with corn & poblanos topped with 2 eggs any style, cheddar cheese, diced crispy chicken, chipotle mayo & pico de gallo. This was delicious, filling and healthy!

My husband ordered the 14th Street Breakfast: Two fried eggs with brie cheese, applewood smoked bacon, arugula & garlic mayo on toasted sourdough bread. Served with choice of fruit or potatoes.

We love Truxtons and it is always hard to pick what to eat, because everything on the menu looks good!

Katrina was our server and she was attentive with a smile! Happy Hour here is always a good deal on food and drink! Mondays, half off on wines!

This is my second time visiting this location and I was very pleased. We arrived on a Saturday, midday without reservations. They were a bit busy with a large birthday party, but we were seated immediately.

Connor was an attentive, polite, efficient server. Five stars to Connor! He was busy and worked hard.

My steak chimichurri was delicious, but the meat was a bit tough, however I really enjoyed the flavors and textures of this dish

My husband ordered the 2 Veggie Steak tacos. He is usually a meat and potato guy,but he truly loves this vegetarian steak!

My friend ordered Donna's 2 piece Fish and Chips! She said the fish was perfectly cooked and the batter was crispy. She chose black beans and rice as her side which she LOVED!

We shared the seasonal cheesecake, which was passion fruit! This is one of my favorite cheesecakes from Truxtons!

The bathroom was very clean and nicely decorated.

The interior is relaxing and inviting. The restaurant was busy but the noise level was not loud. We were able to have a nice conversation without raising our voices

There is a bar where one can sit and have a nice meal alone or to meet a friend.

There is a free private parking lot on the premises.I am a fan of Truxtons and today I tried the Torrence location. It is very cozy! We chose to sit in the covered front patio which had a nice breeze. Inside was nice too, but darker. It was a beautiful day so we opted to sit where we could have the sunshine come through the window.

Kaitlyn, our server was the Best! She was patient and allowed my friend and I to take our time to decide on the many options on the menu. Kaitlyn was very attentive with a smile!

I chose the Chicken Tinga Bowl and my friend, the small Truxtons salad with cheese on the side and just lemon wedges instead of salad dressing. She also ordered a side of fruit. My Tinga bowl was very filling, spicy and tasty.

The interior of the restaurant has a bar as well as booths and tables. The single unit gender bathrooms are clean and nice.

Next time I am on this neighborhood, I will definitely stop in. Truxtons has healthy good options...

I recently had to order food for a last minute corporate lunch (around 30 people) for my clients and I could not find a 'catering' company who could fulfill my request. I stumbled upon Truxton's on Reddit of all places which was recommended by a couple of people. After checking them out on Yelp I saw that the majority of the reviews were very positive about service and food quality. I reached out to Shevaun at Truxton's and she is my new hero! Not only was she extremely pleasant to deal with, she made my lunch a breeze! She helped me determine my menu and how much I should order and they were able to deliver to my meeting in El Segundo. The driver was exactly on time, they set up the food and even had little descriptors for the dishes. The clients raved about the food and there wasn't any left over. I will be sure to use them for future catering especially as their menu is quite diverse! I ended up doing Italian this round but am eager to sample more menu items. Thank you Shevaun...

Highly recommend Truxton's near LAX- the food, service, and experience were amazing!

We were a party of 2, seated in a great area. Harley was our super fantastic server.

Harley suggested the Chilean sea bass with asparagus risotto. In addition we ordered fish & chips substituted chips with mashed potatoes.

As an appetizer the monkey bread was suggested. It was a terrific suggestion. Definitely recommend the monkey bread.

Next our order came out, and the food was absolutely delicious. We enjoyed our meal, the service.

Definitely try the carrot cake. We could not take photos in time before devouring the amazing cake.

What really impressed me was the hot water with lemon after our dessert. We had already paid, and I mentioned I was cold, Harley brought our table hot tea with lemon, I enjoyed the hot water with lemon. It was the perfect touch after a lovely dining experience.

When I visit LA., this will be on my list of favorite...
