"This old-school diner is the kind of spot where you’ll sit next to a couple dissecting their granddaughter’s soccer game and debating the best dogsitter for their corgi over perfectly fluffy pancakes. Weekends usually mean you’ll wait, but you can always pour yourself a cup of self-serve coffee from the big carafe out front and wander over to the nearby golf course to continue living out your suburban fantasies. Once you sit down, focus on the classics and grab an order of the Biscuits From Heaven." - jess basser sanders, nikko duren, sylvio martins
"If you know—or are—a person who grew up on the Westside, John O’Groat’s is more than just a diner. It’s a place where you might have lost your first tooth or went every Saturday after soccer practice and ate buttermilk pancakes until your parents cut you off. That homey, small-town charm remains. Everyone inside this classic American diner on Pico is either reading the newspaper, swapping hot neighborhood gossip, or eating Biscuits From Heaven until they’re ready to nap. Yes, they’re actually called Biscuits From Heaven and yes, that’s an accurate description." - brant cox, sylvio martins, garrett snyder
"If breakfast and lunch are required, head over to the nearly 40-year-old John O’Groats. This daytime fare restaurant does far more than just breakfast, it’s the spot to get something for every preference. Dive into some of Los Angeles’s flakiest fried haddock and seasoned fries while taking in the heavily tartan-patterned digs." - Mona Holmes
"John O’Groats is a family-owned daytime restaurant known for its inclusive approach to dietary preferences. It offers gluten-free options, including a unique gluten-free biscuit with cheddar, served with raspberry jam." - Eater Staff
"Rancho Park’s longstanding daytime spot John O’ Groats feels a bit like a country cottage transported to Los Angeles. The biscuits are a major draw, served in various forms ranging from bacon cheddar to chocolate chip, while pancakes and eggs dominate the rest of the morning fare. Sidle up to the counter, order some coffee, and pull out a book for a wonderfully relaxed breakfast." - Cathy Chaplin, Eater Staff
