Gardena Bowl Coffee Shop

Tucked away in the corner of the Bowling Alley, is one of the best hidden gems for breakfast/lunch. Parking can be a little tight, but there's enough parking! We got in around 10am on a Saturday, and it was busy busy! That's always a good sign in my book! Service was super friendly, just give a little time when it's busy, it's a decent amount of tables to get around. Here's what we ordered! Chicken Katsu Donburi: This was a comfy dish, adding a little heat, it made it perfect! Daily Special Chicken Katsu Curry: This was a comfort dish for sure. The vegetables were tender, the curry was great, that chicken was cooked thoroughly, overall a great dish! If you want some amazing Hawaiian Diner foods, I recommend this spot!

Gardena Bowl is a family favorite! I’ve been coming here since I was a kid, and it’s never lost its charm. The food is always amazing—comforting, flavorful, and consistently delicious. Their fried rice is top-notch, the oyako donburi and chicken katsu always hit the spot, and the banana pecan pancakes? Absolutely irresistible. If I lived closer, I’d be here every single day.

I promise this place is one of a kind! They are super sweet and kind! It takes me back in time for sure! I ordered their famous garlic chicken and fried rice with sausage. I loved both, but I think their fried rice with bacon is much better! Overall, my experience here surpassed my expectations! The garlic chicken has a lot of flavor that I didn't think it was going to have! Super good! My only bad thing about it is that it does have nerves & pieces of fat, but other than that, it was delicious ! Need to come for sure !

Great menu selection. Ordered the egg foo young g + Char siu pork, was 4/5 rating but willing to try other items on the menu

Seriously the best food in Gardena. Garlic chicken plate with kimchi friend rice for the win! The rice is a massive size and the food is so fresh and tasty. I could eat this daily! Great price point and great food. Cool diner vibe and old school style. Love it!

Delicious food located inside a bowling alley! Big Portions! Good Prices! Friendly Service! I recommend the Hawaiian Royal, Garlic Chicken and Banana Pecan Pancakes!

Went to play pool with my husband for the first time ever! I loved it. Staff was so nice. The Cafe food was delicious. He had the omelet and I had Brioche French Toast. So good. The Cafe manager was AMAZING. We will ba back.
