After 8 years of serving pizza, pasta, and awesome breadsticks to hungry South Bay citizens, Pat & Oscars is closing shop at their Del Amo Mall location.
The announcement was made on the evening of August 15 in an email addressed to members of their Breadstick eClub. The email was titled “Important Notice from Pat & Oscar’s Torrance”.
As a member of the Breadstick eClub – and a patron of Pat & Oscars – I can say that they will be missed. P&O was a popular destination for me and my daughter, mainly to get our hands on their hot, buttery, garlicky, breadsticks.
With the Del Amo location closed, P&O fans in LA County will have to make the drive to one of the other stores in the Inland Empire, Orange County, or San Diego County.
After having been spoiled by having them right down the street for all this time, making the trek to get my breadstick fix is going to seem like a pilgrimage.
Goodbye, Del Amo Pat & Oscars!
