New American Restaurants near Compton, CA

“Always Fresh & Delicious 😋“

“First thing as a heads up they are to go orders only since the pandemic. There's no parking on the site.

Now I had the breakfast: eggs, grits, pork chop, and pancakes

The grits and pork chop was delicious, and the pancakes were just how I like em!

I've read a lot of stuff about this place having a rude owner, but the man who helped today was everything but rude.

I came to the door not realizing it was order to go only, but he was kind enough to walk me through his menu process (QR code) and even walked the food over to my car. The next parking lot over. The owners name is David, and he informed Naka's broiler has been serving the Compton area for 66 years! This establishment is a local treasure and Should be treated as such.

Give respect to earn respect, c'mon y'all didn't you watch Mr Rogers?“

“Stopped by for the classic Tam's Burger on my way home service was very quick and the drive-thru. The guy at the window was chill.I will say I expected the burger to have the famous Tams sauce and it did so I was happy at the end.The soda was a little flat but it happens“

“Good quality food. Healthy options. Great service. My favorite is the braised beef and mushroom with mashed potatoes. The mango tart is amazing.“

“Fun, tasty, fast, and reasonably priced.“

“We had a 40th college reunion there. The ambience was perfect, food was great and the staff were wonderful! Everyone had a great time!“

“I’m a local LB resident and today I took my family visiting from UK to LBX Hangar for dinner.

We decided that the hangar was really crowded and stumbled across the 908 restaurant. From the moment the staff offered us the chance to sit outside and enjoy the atmosphere to the moment we left, we were delighted by the food choices and the service.

Their mule is amazing - the freshly ground ginger is a special touch and the whole drink was so good my “one drink only” wife had another.

My sister and I both ate the Shrimp Pho Sandwich - a unique combination of flavors and definitely recommended. The goat cheese and cauliflower appetizer was fantastic.

Their tiramisu is definitely worth ordering - even without any room left.

The best words go to their staff however - the team that helped us were amazing, Attentive and eager to please. John the supervisor was instantly on top of all issues, however minor as was Ethan.

Great work, all - we will be back …“

“Always satisfied with the freshest ingredients ‼️❤️“

“The food here is so good! The portions are also huge, my partner and I only ate half of what we got pretty much and were able to have the leftovers for brunch the following day ?, and it still schmacked after being microwaved! 5/5.

Decent service, it was a busy Saturday so it wasn’t anything to complain about ??

Atmosphere was great, washrooms were clean as well.

Only thing that sucked was finding parking, but we’re not from town, so parking could just be normal for locals?

Overall, you gotta try this place. The Vicky’s Breakfast is well balanced, the Pastrami was cooked perfectly and the roasted tomato and herb salad pairs with it so well to cut through that fat. The mushrooms were a sleeper in that plate ?‍? it was delicious! The chicken and waffles were great too, batter was light and crispy.“

“Excellent service. Great beer. Great food. I Love the ambiance.“

“Outstanding food and great staff! I wish I lived in Torrance 😂😂😂⚡️❤️“

“Everything very tasty, especially Noble Club“

“Not sure where to start. We were visiting Los Angeles for the week and decided to try 2 Hommies, this was the BEST MEAL OF OUR ENTIRE STAY. It was so Nice we ate there Twice and had enough to take on our flight and make everyone jealous. Service was EXCELLENT. We will be back on our next trip. As an aside, I purchased one of their tee shirts to help advertise THE BEST FOOD IN LOS ANGELES“

“To John Hansen, My wife and I would like to thank you for such a lovely evening. Chez Bacchus represents the “True Expression of a Dining Experience”. Starting with the welcoming staff at the entrance. John, your hospitality is the beginning of the joyful experience. The restaurant is so elegant. We enjoyed the vaulted ceilings with wood beams. We enjoyed the large window at the kitchen area so you can see the Chefs at work. We got to sit next to the impressive wine rack display. The restaurant’s ambiance wouldn’t be complete without the soft background music. Our waiter, Issac, was a delight. He provided us with his expertise in choosing our wines, appetizers, entrees, and desserts. It was a pleasure to meet to give special thanks to the Chef, Danny Le and Su Chef, Donald. Their expertise is why we had an amazing and delicious dinner.“

“This was my first visit to this restaurant and I must say I was VERY pleased with my experience. I am vegan + food allergies and I was accommodated with care and excellency. The manager personally made my meal (lettuce wrapped veggie tacos) and it was delicious!!! I meant to take a picture. They were really good and satisfying.

Dietary restrictions: They have a gluten sensitive menu and can accommodate you if you have dietary restrictions.“

“Dined here this evening. We enjoyed some Cocktails to start then ordered Beef Tartare, Shrimp with Veg and Roasted Carrots. Entrees varied from Pasta to Ribeye steak and Burger. All delicious. The Carbonara needed more bacon but that was the only issue. Desserts were great. The Espresso wasn’t hot enough for my guest but overall we enjoyed the evening celebrating a birthday. Will recommend to my friends for sure. Would recommend a reservation as it was very busy by the time we left at 6.30 pm“

“Claire’s at the Museum is aesthetically pleasing. The view is gorgeous, and the food is delicious! Spent my birthday here and it did not disappoint!! ❤️“

“Wow! This is a hidden gem! Had a few hours until our flight out of Long Beach. Found this amazing spot for a coffee and was absolutely blown away by the owner(Shannon) and the menu! We ordered 2 coffees a sandwich and a cinnamon roll. The coffees were amazing, the owner made me a custom coffee. I asked for 'Something Sweet' and the drink was so good we ordered a 2nd one. Cinnamon roll was hot, sweet, and cream cheese frosted. Licked the bowl clean! Breakfast Sandwich was made with fresh ingredients and was so tasty! We will plan our future trips to this Airport just to have this coffee and cinnamon roll again! 10/10! Oh and the reggae music jamming is the vibe!!“

“Great service. Decor was chic. Service on point, not rushed. Great place for a date.“

“Food was super I had the lobster linguini and calamari was very very good and the service spectacular“

“Never had a bad meal or service!“

“Incredible. Elegant. Delicious. Wonderful atmosphere.“

“Stopped in for lunch today after seeing a post on Instagram. It’s nice, clean and right on the corner in the shopping center. It looked like the parking lot was packed but there was plenty of parking upon further review. The waitress was so nice and sweet. (I hate that I didn’t ask her name) I got the Loco Moco and the Beignets. Both were REALLY GOOD. She actually didn’t charge me for the dessert because it didn’t come out the way they liked……. It was GOOD to me!! I am not a fan of creamy, mayonnaise, ranch, béchamel, hollandaise, type of sauce so I chose the safe route this time. It was delicious. Very filling and full of flavor. I will be back again and I did invite my friends already. Thanks Chef! Congratulations!!“

“Good service good food 🥘!“

“We took some out of town guests here for lunch. Everyone was delighted. They loved watching the cars race on the track! Drinks were delicious 😋 We all ordered different items for lunch. All pleased with what they got. Would recommend and look forward to going back again.“

“So far I have tried the spicy Korean fried chicken bowl, pork belly bowl and japchae, all of delicious. Always fresh. My toddler only likes japchae from an AYCE kbbq in Garden Grove, but she has approved of yours. 10/10 every time. I am always greeted with a smile. I will keep coming back.“

“The food is good, but the management and the staff are out of this world. Keith, Mel, and the rest of the establishment thank you. Dennis and Stacey will definitely be back.“

“The best shrimp n grits I've ever had.“

“Nick’s food and service doesn’t disappoint! Menu options are great, and they’ll take a classic comfort dish such as a meat loaf to a gourmet degree. Service is impecable too. Worth every dollar you spend here in every aspect! They have my respect and heart! ♥️“

“Had a great time friendly place“

“Great breakfast entrees including super tasty pancakes and great omlettes. Parking lot is tiny and usually full. Prepare for a wait on weekends by late morning. One of the better casual breakfast spots near USC.

Parking: Small parking lot. Be prepared to park on the street.“

“They are good. I try them whenever I'm around“

“Great food and a great bartender“

“We enjoyed everything about our meal from start to finish.“

“I ordered to go yesterday and was super impressed. I got steak, the pesto chicken sandwich and the Hollywood salad bowl. The food was very good even after sitting in the to go containers for a while. The service was even better than the food. The front counter girl walked me over to the pick up area and then the manager helped me with a question about an issue with the online rewards (something wasn’t working in applying a reward for a free bowl so he honored it and made it for me on the spot). It’s so been so long since I’ve had food and service this good! I’ll definitely be back to eat in for dinner. I want to try the eat-in in space as it looked quite nice with a full bar. The parking in the garage is easy and free for two hours without validation. Kudos to this spot for excellent management and staff!

Parking: Parking is easy in an underground garage (under Trader Joe’s). It’s free for two hours while shopping.“

“I have to admit, I wasn’t expecting the food to be this exceptional. And that is because sometimes chain establishments are not great. However, Camille suggested a couple of dishes for us and they did not disappoint and in fact I would’ve licked the plates if it was publicly appropriate. I highly recommend the biscuits and gravy and short rib hash!!!!! Omg so delicious!! I can’t wait to come back for more!!!“

“Love their ground beef tacos delicious!!!“

“This was such a great experience. The views are some of the best downtown LA has to offer. The food was delicious. We had the piri piri fried chicken, French fries, crab claw pasta and the grilled branzino. Everything was fresh and seasoned well. The wait staff was pleasant and super friendly. Shoutout to Victor and Victoria. Will definitely recommend and plan on returning.“

“Customer service is paramount not only for me, but specially when I am around family. Our server Schaeffer is not only superv to Customer Service but has great personality that makes me feel truly welcome!“

“Very good service and the food was delicious“

“Food was good, you could sit inside or out. The service was good but we had just finished our food and we were finishing up our drinks when our waitress just leans across the table to start restocking items. She got one walked away then came back a minute or two later 5 times. Never said excuse me or anything. There were plenty of open tables. Just didn't feel like she was very polite. My and my friends opinion.“

“Great food and atmosphere.“

“While traveling from Idaho we were fortunate to have brunch with our dear friends in Long Beach before heading out on a cruise. They took us to this quaint, fun restaurant. Spectacular service, delicious food, Hazelnut coffee, yum! Thanks for the very cool stickers!“

“Came by on a late Friday afternoon to grab some lunch and enjoy the beach a bit. There was a rope course playground behind the building, cornhole & a big jenga block set for the kids to enjoy while we waited for our food. We got the burger, chicken, spicy burrito. None of it was mind-blowing but still very good. The chips that came with the burg were interesting, we were unsure if they were fried in-house or not but still decent if they were. The individual that served us at the window was on-point with his service, brought out our drinks for us and gave me a bag to use for leftovers. Would recommend if you're in the area.“

“Yummy 😋 first time ever, in the heart of 2nd Street and I can't believe I've never been here. I havent eaten beef in a decade, unsure but had a taste for it today. 🤩 We shared all the goodness, short rib pizzzzzzza, BBQ scrumptious and so juicy burger, along with the poke tostada, which was piled high with aoli and fresh tartar.

The staff sets this place apart, all are welcoming, inviting and make you feel like your neighbors, including recommendations that melt in your mouth. Had to get a piece of swag memorabilia ie; truckers hat.....so much gratitude. They always say it's not just the food, yet who was a part of the taste test that matters.......highly recommended, scrumptious and delicious 😋“

“Delicious breakfasts, oh my!“

“I have breakfast here whenever I am in town. Amazing food“

“Absolute wonderful staff and service! Everything I've had the pleasure to eat at the Diner has been mouth watering and simply delicious! Always the best, never fails! Every time I visit Long Beach it is mandatory.“

“Love The Crest. Amazing boutique apartment complex. Feels so homey and cozy. The leasing people are super cool and so close to everything walking distance. Oh.... and did I mention they have the most legit balconies. I spent most of my time on the beautiful balcony ❤️ I searched for a place for 3 months and this was it. ❤️❤️❤️“

“Always have a great meal at Simmzy’s. I had cauliflower tacos and they were excellent (and I’m not a vegetarian). Sweet potato fries were great. I’m the past I’ve had the chicken tortilla soup- it’s one of the best! Pet and child friendly.“
