Phanny’s, which serves some of the South Bay’s more popular breakfast burritos in a bustling Redondo Beach restaurant, is expanding to a second location in El Segundo, reports Toddrickallen. The roving Westside reporter saw a sign at El Segundo’s North Village Shopping Center at 150 Pacific Coast Highway on a covered window, saying the expansion might be open within a month, depending on permits. The new location in El Segundo is just a few miles south of Los Angeles International Airport, making Phanny’s an excellent breakfast-and-flight combination for travelers.
Opened in 1982 by the Dispun family, the restaurant served a larger fast-food menu of burgers and hot dogs before honing in on breakfast burritos. Owner Andy Dispun, whose parents founded the restaurant, took Phanny’s over around 2015 and has been introducing innovations such as a high-end espresso machine for coffee drinks. Expanding to El Segundo could signal a wider reach for the beloved South Bay burrito brand.
