The Best Restaurants to Eat Alone in Los Angeles, According to Eater Editors | Eater LA

"The longtime Gardena Bowl coffee shop has been a neighborhood destination for breakfast foods and Hawaiian-inflected dishes like wonton saimin and a Royal fried rice plate topped with roast pork. Located next to one of the South Bay’s most beloved bowling alleys, the place fills up every day of the week with bowling regulars, grizzled locals, and first-time fans who saw it pop up on their TikTok feeds. Think of Gardena Bowl coffee shop as a bustling Hawaiian diner plucked out of the islands and dropped right into an LA suburb. The casual diner setting makes it easy to settle in as a solo diner and enjoy a plate of loco moco. — Matthew Kang, lead editor" - Rebecca Roland
