“My partner and I came in for breakfast. We had the Quiche and the American Breakfast. The quiche was very good but the fries it came with were not. The bacon that came with the American breakfast had good flavor but was overcooked. We also shared a pancake, we did like the pancake but felt it was a little undercooked. Overall a nice experience, but we expected more from the food. We might try again for other dishes.“
“I got there just before the dinner rush. The outside tables were filling up, and the bar was full. Great Service. The most amazing food. They gave complimentary homemade flour tortillas, butter, red salsa, and green avocado salsa. Wow best tortillas I ever had. Then finish off with the three most flavorful De Filet Mignon Tacos that just melted in my mouth. The meat is very tender, and the flavors are like a bite of heaven with every bite. JD the GM runs the place very well.“
“Always consistently good food. Had the salmon and salad with brussel sprouts, and my friend had the grilled chicken sandwich. Seasoning was robust, but not too salty. Waitress was friendly, introduced herself, and had no problem with request for two checks for the table.“
“What can I say other than Chef Melba's is absolutely incredible. We had a fantastic dinner there on Friday evening and shut the restaurant down. the food, the service, the camaraderie, the quaintness, the intimacy of the space is just on matched. . Also, the phenomenal food and a very personal experience as chef Melba comes to your table and makes sure you're satisfied with the meal. John, who is the head waiter? Make sure that we lack Nord need of anything as we were considered v. I p's. We have a special drink at the end of our experience.“
“I've been a customer here for years, and it's always been good, but the last few times I've noticed they've upped their game considerably. My wife and I have tried just about every restaurant from Long Beach to El Segundo and have always searched for a good steak. Most of the time it's been just meh, ok at best. We always order a filet, and last night tried it at Zane's. Hands down the best filet Mignon I've ever had! My wife, who is even more critical than myself, also agreed. It's funny because places that tout themselves as a steak house don't come close to Zane's for a filet. Not to mention it is served with a side, not as an extra cost, which most restaurants charge for. The atmosphere is great, and is perfect for people watching as well.“
“Nice local place good food and drinks at a reasonable price. Great place to watch the games. The staff is very friendly. I had the Barbacoa Quesadilla that was very good. They have a private room for parties of business you can book. Great place to hangout and meet the locals.“
“An absolute gem nestled in Hermosa Beach! The seafood at Playa Hermosa is beyond compare – from the succulent oysters to the perfectly seared scallops and the delectable fish and chips, every dish was a culinary delight. The Albacore Sashimi was a personal favorite, bursting with freshness and flavor. But what truly elevated the experience was the breathtaking view of the pier from their patio. As we indulged in our meal, we were treated to the mesmerizing sight and the vibrant energy of people strolling by. A perfect harmony of delectable cuisine and scenic beauty, making every moment an unforgettable one. Can't wait to return!“
“I have always liked this place in Hermosa. Great food. Not too worried about the prices. But since the rebrand you never know if its open or not. The hours posted are wrong and they arent open for lunch most days. Food is great. Sangria is .“
“Well it lived up to the hype. From one chef to another..bravovery well executed. Took a little long to get my food, and I would want a little more sauce and ramen and..ok fish too for the $48 it costs...but that sauce was amazing...some spicy fish tomato sauce or something whatever it was it was bomb. The desserts look tempting...Definitely some of the best food I've had for a while. I'll be back for sure..hopefully with a group so I can taste all their dishes.“
“Great tasting food, service was attentive, atmosphere/decor was great. We were told to order more food than we thought necessary, by the time we got the last dish - we couldn't finish it. Unfortunately, they packed it up in such a small container that you could tell half of the curry was thrown out! Recommend to use a bigger container!“
“This was a good spot for a light lunch on a sunny afternoon. We tried the trio and received the halibut, rockfish, and striped bass. The flavors paired with the halibut were light and refreshing. The rockfish was our favorite - great texture and flavor. The housemade za'atar blend paired with the striped bass was tasty but unfortunately too salty. I think I would've really enjoyed it if there was less salt. Also ordered the vegan caesar and loved it! Delicious dressing and the furikake on top was a great touch.“
“I showed up late so I didn't get to try everything, but the shrimp dumplings were a joy! It's dark as hell in there so if you're over 30, take a seeing-eye friend as your dining companion. Gorgeous, decor and the music finished out the mood. The parking garage that offers valet is just steps away, so don't let the location deter you. Great choice for a date.“
“So many delicious choices but in my opinion the Bougie fish sticks are a must! We ordered them along with fresh baked bread and the chopped shrimp louie salad for a perfect light and delicious early dinner. Of course you'll need to pair the meal with one (or two) of the excellent wines by the glass. The dessert menu is also worth a look. The view is great, the service outstanding and the menu innovative.“
“Awsome adress for having a good time!The whole team is doing an excellent job in hospitality. Flexible and friendly they take care of you and give smart advise on wines. Furthermore, the food is not just excellent. The chef learned his job in Italy and has managed to reproduce with local products a real distinguished cooking experience which is realy outstanding in taste and quality.Please go on like this. We will come back!“

“Our waiter was friendly and fantastic. The venue itself is very cool. But cool in temperature too. The whole front of the place is open with no wall and we had to keep our jackets on the whole time. The food was very tasty and we loved the trio of guacamole. The filet tacos were too smokey flavored. We finished with the flan and it was amazing. Big enough to share!“
“We are from Orange County and our most favorite server, Ash, now works here. Her service and attention to detail is always next level and this restaurant is amazing.She recommended the The muscles and clams - hands down scrumptious!We sat outside by the fire! We are so happy she is now at such a great establishment. Love the ambiance and of course the service is TOP NOTCH! Smart people hired this girl!“
“The chicken marsala was incredibleVegetarian options: Pizza and pasta can be ordered vegetarian. Not a great place for vegans.Dietary restrictions: I had a hard time finding a gluten-free option. Trani's does not have gluten-free pizza or pasta.“
“Unfortunately they scaled down the fish offering and now have only 4-5 options (spicy ahi, sweet ahi, salmon and shrimp if I recall correctly) but everything is super fresh, handed with a big smile and you have an outdoor area to sit in the sun. Love the place. I would stick to the poke. Tried the meat tacos and the chips with smoked white fish and wasn't blown away.“
“I went to Fishbar for happy hour on a Thursday around 4pm. There was no wait and the hostess accommodated me when I asked for a table further away from the door. Our server Bailey was amazing and friendly! For apps we ordered the happy hour crab queso dip and calamari. The portion for the calamari was a bit small but was to be expected for happy hour. Crab dip didn’t have much crab not sure if that was a happy hour thing as well. Both apps were good though nonetheless. I ordered the Fishbar margarita which was $10 and a bit tart, I ordered the passion fruit margarita next and that was much better. For entrees, it was lobster Thursday so I ordered the whole main lobster special for $45.99 including 2 sides. The lobster was a bit over cooked but good overall. My girlfriend had the shrimp and scallop entree which was also good! Since it was out first time we got a dessert on the house. I will be back again!“
“Fresh sushi at a reasonable price. We were travelling to the LA area from Ontario, Canada and were eager to try sushi in California. This place popped up on our radar and did not disappoint. The sushi is super fresh, great quality, customer service is very attentive and food came promptly. You can tell this place is busy and for good reason!Parking: We were able to get a spot in the parking lot where this place is situated in the mall.“
“First off, I'd like to say this is a beautifully styled restaurant. From its name to the menu design and the overall atmosphere. So artistic and unique. A place to truly relax and enjoy the california lifestyle to the fullest. And the food matches up. Everything we ordered was incredible. We ordered their burger, steak, asparagus, stuffed hashbrown, burnt cheesecake, and a few drinks. It was all fantastic!“
“Forget the cold government building style lights… This place is absolutely amazing. I love San Pedro for many reasons. One of those is the authentic south of the border cuisine. Of all the places I’ve been, this is hands-down, the best. Best fish tacos, One or two extra? Yes, thank you, we can throw them in the box… best, shrimp taco, best asada burrito, El Salvadoran style pupusa, absolute fire. A bargain at twice the price. So atmosphere isn’t as dialed as the food, let’s be honest, typically restaurants get it the other way around. This is a five star mouth party, a foodie playground that is overlooked or passed by at your sad expense. Dude… fire.?“
“Enchanting, fresh, sustainable, dynamic, delicious... how many lovely things could I say about the Dudley Market.Tucked away from the calamity of Venice, this is an establishment that provides truly sustainably sourced seafood, natural wine, and at atmosphere that you simply don't ever want to leave. The type of restaurant you want to visit for every special occasion, just so you have an excuse to come back.Be sure to begin by grabbing a bottle of natural wine, followed by oyster, crudo, and whatever their lovely & knowledgable staff recommends.I can't wait to come back here.“
“The three of us shared the brussels sprout salad, which was absolutely delicious the lobster lollipop appetizer the robins Island steak, the scallop, potatoes, country bread, and for dessert we decided to top it off with the milk chocolate crème brûlée service was great as was the presentation. Nice wine list, I'll be back again and may order the same thing!“
“Our first time trying this spot. Once I heard there was a lobster specific spot in the South Bay, I had to give it a go. Fun little spot with a bar top as well as booths and tables. We had the lobster rolls Connecticut style, waffle fries, and flaming hot lobster fries. Definitely worth a try. We knew going into it that it would be a pretty penny but wanted to get the full experience on the first go. Also, friendly service definitely stood out. Much appreciated. If you're in the mood for lobster check this spot out.“
“By far the best Mexican food fairly priced in the area. My friend and I stopped by to dine in got to catch the Lakers game on the TV and the food was amazing. Will be back soon! The service was amazing the gentleman that served us was the best ever. 5 stars for everything. By the way, the beer... ICED COLD, COULDN'T BE COLDER. ?“
“If you’re ever in the Southbay in LA do yourself a favor and source this seafood gem. It’s ALWAYS busy and I don’t like waiting in line but I will here. The benefit of seafood being fresh is because they sell enough that it’s always excellent. There providers must love the account and take good care of them.Okay, ceviche is a must do with tostada chips, avocado and a slew of hot sauces and a self serve salsa station that also offers marinated white onion ribbons and wonderful whole roasted yellow chiles dusted with a red tangy red spice.Tacos come with a variety of seafood options, I suggest the battered fish as a beginning test since you will come back for them anytime you go again, just trust this.Prices are reasonable and the staff are very happy, why not, everyone eating there are friggin happy too. Parking can be a buzzkill but you’ll figure it out.“
“What a fun night! Great service and yummy food. Definitely an old school charm. Recommended when you're in the mood for steak and a little Sinatra. The only dish that was a little disappointing, but not bad: the Caesar Salad. It is made tableside, but isn't anything special. The steaks were well cut and perfectly prepared. The truffle Mac was solid. Overall a great experience!“
“I love Nick's Manhattan Beach. Great staff, wonderful atmosphere, and close to everything. However, I wish they had a few more vegan friendly options. It would make it a place I'd frequent more often.. As so many places near by do not have vegan options.“
“So delish, so fresh, so pretty! Love the concept and sustainable fresh, creative combos of ingredients. The Osana ad Bangkok Fever were standouts! Umeet was so knowledgeable and is heping to coordinate catering for my work event for Earth Month -- all 80+ of us! Can't wait to try breakfast“
“We enjoyed this restaurant, the food tasted very good, fresh ingredients and good size meal portions. I would definitely recommend this place.We enjoyed the restaurant, very pleased and satisfied with the food, the ingredients were fresh and the portions were a good size. The variety of dishes suits any palate.I definitely recommend the restaurant for a romantic date and/or a special event.“

“Nice setting, very cozy booths with glass partitions for some additional privacy. Twin lobster tail dinner entree was impressive. Large lobster tails. Staff was very friendly and welcoming. Be on the look out for the multitude of water options. - sparkling - still - house filtered Usually still just means regular water, but here, that is "house filtered". The other options are an addition cost.“
“Phenomenal atmosphere, service, and food! We ordered the fresh kusshi oysters and bread rolls to start. my mom and sister had filets, I enjoyed the coffee rub ribeye. I've had a lot of steaks throughout my life, but this was by the far the best out of ANY steakhouse that I have been to. It was my mom and sisters birthday, and they have never been so pleased at a fine dining restaurant. Thank you to everyone for making it such a special dinner for everyone!“
“It’s such an amazing experience to get some fresh seafood there! We were looking for shrimp cocktail everywhere. It seems that shrimp cocktail is such an “old/ comfort” food now which is difficult to find nowadays! It was fresh and delicious!!!! And we got some clams, mussels, and shrimps with garlic butter which were delicious! The nice guy who helped, Brock, was so nice, helpful, and kind! We had such an amazing time, maybe also it’s a weekday and everyone there was having a blast!“
“Super fun and lively vibe and incredibly nice staff. Patio is dog friendly which is a major plus. Honestly my favorite thing about this restaurant is the tortilla they give you when you sit down - none of the food I've ordered has measured up to that level of deliciousness! That said it's all been solid and would definitely recommend if you're in the area.“
“Great seafood, reasonably priced. The Fish and chips plate is hands down the best fish and chips. Their salmon is always so good, they have a good number of seasonings they can throw on there for you. The catfish is really good, there's better out there but is still real good. All around, suck a good spot if you're looking for some good seafood.“
“I had no idea how this worked when I went, but the food tasted great. You will get your food marinated in a bag and you have to peel the food on your own. They give you a bin and gloves. Very reasonable prices and attentive service, I would come here again.“
“One of my customer referred to me this cafe I have tried today’s was delicious I’m Mexican I’m a cook I’m enjoy a authentic Mexican food this cafe is so far from my own experience the best I have enfrijoladas for me my husband try the chorizo burrito breakfast was 10 out 10 delicious ?“
“Got lucky today after arriving at LAX. On our way home we found this spot! Yelp gave 4.5 stars. Absolutely delighted with my experience at this pho restaurant! The food was incredibly delicious, showcasing authentic flavors that left my taste buds in awe. The ambiance was enhanced by the charming touch of traditional music, creating a delightful atmosphere. What truly stood out was the exceptional service - always delivered with a genuine smile. A 5-star gem that I wholeheartedly recommend to anyone seeking an outstanding dining experience!“
“Very lovely place in Playa del Rey, the service was very attentive and had a nice local ambiance. We had the seafood pasta, four cheese pizza and spinach and mozzarella salad. The pasta was very well made and had a nice variety of seafood. The salad was basic and made well. The pizza was a little disappointing as it was too dry and we ended up putting the salad on top to eat. Overall a wonderful place and would recommend.“
“We were here for a bridal dinner in the private back room. Absolutely delicious!!! Fresh ingredients and everything made with love. Excellent service, beautiful atmosphere! The pasta was perfect and the appetizers were such a tasty start to an incredible meal.“
“I ordered fish and chips. The fish was beautifully fried. However, it was 3/4 batter 1/4 fish.All of the other entrees were good.The staff was attentive the food was was served fresh.Vegetarian options: Nice selection of meatless side dishes the brussel sprouts were quie tasty“
“When I say the catfish and macaroni salad is ???? believe me. Best fish market I've had in long while and the prices are very reasonable during this time. I would say the only thing I don't care for is the lunch specials not being available all day, but the owners are lovely ppl tho so I approve with a A++“
“If you have savvy taste buds go here! Also most importantly...Vegetarian Friendly! The salsas taste spicy and the beans are very creamy and developed. I can't wait to try the bean burrito in different variations. I absolutely loved my time dining at Mr. Valdez. Thank You Staff for a great experience!Vegetarian options: The cook was very well versed with diet restrictions and took great care with my order. The beans are lard free. Yay!“
“FINALLY went to check this place out. Went right when they opened last Friday and there were already customers seated inside. The backyard area where they have their tables is bigger than I expected. Ordered their ceviche and tacos (gobernador and echilosos) which was pretty great, fresh and tasty. Parking can be hard because it's a neigborgood but we got lucky we found one couple houses down. I think you should defintiely come visit right when they open at 11am. They do zelle and cash as forms of payment.“
“Hi Ruthie! Here's a 5-star review for your favorite Italian restaurant: I absolutely love dining at Nando! The authentic Italian food transports me right back to Italy with every bite. The ambiance is cozy and inviting. The staff is incredibly attentive and welcoming everytime we dine there. I highly recommend trying their gnocchi- it's my favorite item on the menu. Local insider tip - the family style lasagna for takeout is absolutely delicious and incredibly reasonably priced!“
“Visiting from SF, I was excited to check out this place on the Redondo Beach Marina. Great location, design and deck space. Food was OK and has room to elevate. Sourdough bread is the bomb. Hot and steamy. The Linguine Del Mar had good seafood, but was overpowered by too much sauce. And thick—vs. brothy sauce. Friendly service and would come again.“
“This was my first time trying this place. I decided to try their quesabirria with consume. To me it was sure good i enjoyed every bite of it with red salsa and lemon squeezed in my broth and sure did the dip on the quesabirria. Very crunchy was just good. Sure will be going to visit in person.“
“I love the vegetarian tacos here! Especially the calabacitas, frijoles y queso, nopales and the quesadilla! The corn tortillas are so fresh and taste great. I recommend the Jamaica to drink, it's authentic and not too sweet (def not the premixed kind full of sugar).“
