Restaurants in Hermosa Beach

“Warm, hands on and personalized service. A Michelin Bib Gourmand restaurant…Food Made from Scratch, fresh, unique, different, and affordable. Highly recommended! The red onion focaccia bread with herb and Parmesan butter, added Burrata - best- seller, a must. The 3 day brined smoked fried chicken-different taste, with soy and Chiles, a must!!!The Peruvian pork belly with sweet potato , Criolla and crispy quinoa , love it! And the Grilled NY steak with green garlic chimichurri, chorizo aioli and pommes pont neuf, thick cut fries…my son prefers over the fried chicken.”

“awesome customers service, delicious food and drinks! wonderful experience from the moment we walked in the door we were greeted as if we were regular patrons. George was our bartender and he was patient and helped us navigate the menu, David, the GM was personable and very accommodating, the Owner Chef Ray came out to say hello and grace us with a picture. phenomenal experience! thank you”

“Yummy wine as be delicious food!”

“Nice and friendly atmosphere, and delicious food. My waitress Nicole was a very good server. Very satisfied”

“Friendly staff. Inclusive environment.”

“5-star alert! My wife surprised me with this delicious Tunisian restaurant on Father’s Day! It was like an exotic trip to Mediterranean North Africa. The servers were good and the owner was super friendly and helpful! We had prawns, fish, lamb, cauliflowers, and the infamous Hand of Fatima. Everything was delicious, with unique flavors and beautifully presented. The sauces were so unique and flavorful, we had 3 orders of bread as we want to enjoy more of the flavors in every dish!”

“Fun to do if in the area, a lot of people come here because the cafe was featured in LaLaLand movie. The music here is great, they have all sorts from day to night. I went to a jazz show and rock band which was fun, the singer was hopping all over the room. LOL I had a jalapeño black salt margarita but wasn’t a fan, it was wellmade but the flavors don’t agree with me. The food smells good but I didn’t eat anything, lots of fried foods. I recommend going in the day because they start charging for cover around 7.”

“What a great spot. If you live in a beach town most restaurants have an indoor outdoor vibe that is great but can be loud and chilly. This place is more like a European pub/restaurant with great food and a quiet vibe. Drinks are wonderful. Well priced for the area and the quality of the food. It's upstairs with no patio but warm and intimate. Great for a date or a table of four. I'll be back.”

“Decadence is the place to come for great cocktails and food. They have excellent service and provide amazing music on the weekends. I brought my friends to decadence and had a great time! Did I mention the amazing ambiance! Great for a night out in Hermosa beach! Highly recommend!”

“Taya was an absolute gem! busy as hell Steelers Takeover got served and kept us served the whole time! thanks Taya! food was great spirits were better!”

“This is hands down the best açaí place in all of Southern California! As someone who lived in Brazil for 4 months this is the closest “taste of Brazil” that I can find here. I absolutely love it and will continue to come here constantly! Thank you OakBerry for being here! (:”

“Nice quiet place to relax”

“I’ve driven past hundreds of times, not really knowing what they’re all about. I was stopped at the traffic light one day and they were handing out a free meal. That was three months ago and since then, I am eating better and rarely go to the store except to get milk, eggs and bread! Discovering Ready Fit Go came at a perfect time. I was getting ready to have hand surgery and knew my recovery would be difficult and long. I started out with the 5 day meal plan and had it delivered. Everything I purchased was delicious and so fresh. That was the beginning of a new way of eating for me. There’s always fresh and healthy food in my refrigerator now, no more running out to pick up take out. I’m saving money, time and eating healthier then I ever have before. Bonus, the owner and staff are all very helpful, friendly and nice.”

“Good service. Excuisite cuisines”

“cute local coffee shop, friendly & great recommendations”

“Love the sampler plate. Then go for the bigger tacos. Great service free in front parking i am a big fan. Just watch for the red chillies next to certain dishes. Spicy hot but still so good”

“The food was delicious, Caroline recommended me the farmers market veggies and she was spot on with the description and had a lovely personality. Will definitely be coming back. Hopefully I get Carolone again as my server she made my day”

“Authentic Italian Gelato with many vegan options. Specialty coffee and fresh baked croissants.”

“Great pizza, super friendly staff”

“Absolutely amazing deep-dish pizza! Every bite was rich, flavorful, and perfectly balanced—crispy on the outside, yet soft and buttery on the inside. It made me feel like I was eating inside the Loop in Chicago, but without the usual heaviness or saltiness of traditional deep-dish. The sauce was vibrant, the cheese was gooey and indulgent, and the crust had that perfect golden crunch. The Owners and Staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming, and the service was impeccable. Plus, they have a fantastic selection of adult beverages to pair with your meal. If you love pizza, this spot is an absolute must-visit. I’ll definitely be back! 🍕🔥”

“Easy and nice wait staff! Awesome coffee”

“Loved Vincent and my amazing cup of coffee.”

“yummmmm so good. highly recommend”

“I LOVE the burgers and tater tots here! I’ve been following them for several location moves and always recommend it anyone. Super delicious and my favorite cheat meal!”

“Martha’s is one of my favorite spots steps away from the beach with TERRIFIC EGGS BENEDICT & CHICKEN 🍲 SOUP! Service is friendly & efficient!”

“One of the busiest and best spot in Hermosa combining great food with a young fun atmosphere and cool decor. The outside patio is usually packed and you should def get a reservation at peak times. Inside has really nice comfortable boot and nice wall treatments that stand out on the pier in a good way. You really can't go wrong with the good here.. of the ceviche trio the cabo is our favorite.. being more of a traditional flavor. The shrimp taquitos are not only delicious but visually a great presentation. We have had tons of the dishes here and the seafood is wonderful as are the more traditional Mexican dishes and combination plates. The menu is pretty deep and the kitchen puts out great food pretty quickly even when its packed. This is one of our favorite places in Hermosa because it has such as great buzz and also excellent service, food and drinks. Has to be our #1 option on the pier.”

“great breakfast sandwich”

“Mel and Jane are super cool. Always a fun time when they are behind the bar. Cute too. Bonus!”

“I was looking for a quiet local place to ask my best friends to be my bridesmaids. I came across Slay and immediately booked a table! They were so accommodating when I arrived and poured me a much needed glass of champagne. Food was amazing! Bottomless mimosas were fantastic and you even get to choose different juices to add. My favorite was guava! Thank you Slay for helping me with such a memorable moment.”

“Great Atmosphere. Great hang out, nice local spot....”

“The strawberry MAtcha is amazing. The lady who helped me this morning was very sweet and welcoming . Very cozy atmosphere.the music was a perfect compliment to the vibes in this place. I definitely will be back

“Carnitas burritos are the so good. Spicy salsa to pair.”

“Chef Melbas Bistro is a favorite for us for fine dining in the #southbay excellent food and fresh ideas and she uses her own garden resources. Highly recommend it!”

“Had the Thai bowl... YUM!”

“!! Excelente atención , i la comida esta super delicioso todos los días quiero ir al pollo inka sin duda la mejor opción para ir a comer ya sea con tu pareja o con toda la familia . Te centiras como en casa”

“GETSOME!!!”

“Super cool bar with a local feel in Hermosa Beach. It’s located like a block away from the pier and is a great place to enjoy some quality drinks with friends. The staff were all super friendly and knowledgeable. The vibe and atmosphere is great too”

“Delicious sushi! Awesome service!”

“Carnitas burritos are the so good. Spicy salsa to pair.”

“This is one of our MUST GO TO RESTAURANT when we come to Los Angeles. Food is very delicious, good portion and environment is so chill. The hockey game always plays on TV with photos of Kings made it special. It just takes a minute to walk out to the Hermosa Beach to enjoy the Sunshine.”

“This place is fantastic! And to think I have walked, driven, or rode by and never stopped in is my only regret. This is authentic Mexican food and you'll know it at first bite!”

“Had a morning moment in Starbucks and this little shop was quaint and cozy. Nestled only a few feet from Hermosa Beach, when I walked in there was no line. I ordered my fav, Mango Dragonfruit refresher, and the turnaround time was super fast (get it with lemonade). Patrons come in waves, so by the time I figured out what baked good I wanted (yes, I get out of line so I can think about it) the line was a bit longer, but, again, it was a super quick turn around time. Always a great stop if you want your favorite drink by the beach, but know that parking is an issue, so plan to use this spot only for a beach day.”

“The portions for the rolls appeared a bit small, however the fish and ingredients were very fresh and delicious. Fair prices for a sushi spot in Hermosa Beach.

Kid-friendliness: Just don’t let them bounce around.”

“they were really nice and their coffee and snacks are awesome!!”

“The food and drinks are delicious. The staff service is great! Love the ambiance 🥰”

“Fabulous place to eat, absolutely love it.”

“First time there. Will definitely return. Really great sound. Vocally appreciative crowd. Seemed like everyone had enough room to just stand , just dance or sit down . Great selection of beers on tap.”

“Excellant spot to Meet, Greet and Eat!!🥰”

“Wonderful food and staff!!!”

“What a fabulous new restaurant/bar addition to Hermosa Beach! The food is exceptional, lobster rolls to die for and the staff so friendly and helpful. We will be regulars for sure!”

“I love their gluten free veggie lover pizza with vegan cheese! So yummy! They make the pizza from scratch. Vegan people in South Bay must eat this ;) Very nice & friendly owner and staff too :)”

“Muy sabrosos los tacos,100% recomendados!”

“Freshly made food, several flavors to choose from, the chicken is nice and crispy, never greasy and definitely white meat! Downside is just that since it is not precooked it does take a while to wait for your meal, and the atmosphere is that of fast food with uncomfortable seats, loud music, and voices carry very well making this a very loud environment and difficult to visit with friends or family while eating in. They do have a patio you could take advantage of but it's right next to PCH and a busy side street.
I do like the option of ordering at the kiosk, I don't like that it still asks for you to leave a tip even though you pick your own food up at the counter and clean up after yourself. Otherwise, in the future I will be ordering ahead and just picking up and eating at home or on the beach!”

“Great location. A man came in after me without a mask, immediately the Starbucks barista asked him to wear a mask. He didn’t have 1 so the barista provided him with 1. Very nice!!”

“Delicious food and service riquísimo”

“This is the best experience, they know the science behind keeping your acai bowl perfect till the last drop!! Don't waste your money anywhere else. This is the place to go!”

“I used to love studying at Source Café during my student years — cozy vibes, great food, and a perfect spot to focus. But I was disappointed to find they’ve turned off the WiFi. It’s still a lovely place to unplug, but not ideal if you need to get work done online.”

“love the atmosphere my home spot”

“I was helped today by Alex. I really felt catered to. He was a delight to be around and helped brighten my day, not only with the delicious sandwich, but with his awesome service.”

“A place a little more humble when doing a broader search for ramen places. In our experience (my wife and I) it’s sometimes those types of places that will surprise you. I’ll tell you about it…

Taking what I mentioned above into consideration, we could gloss over a couple of details to give the food a try. Such details being an outdated menu, no description for menu items, and being the only patrons at 6pm on a Saturday.

Overall everything was an honest attempt. The server was prompt, personable, and was able to fill in the obvious gaps in the menu. Gyoza came out strong, crisp all around. Rice for the sushi was soft/fresh. My ramen was solid and measured up to the servers heat/spicy warning. My wife’s bowl (presumably the standard pork ramen) was soft on the broth flavor. Everything that was supposed to be hot was hot, and cold was cold. The chef even slid us a complimentary small crab salad.

Would we try this place again? Yes, we would. Hopefully some of those glossed over details will change before then. Does this place beat our preferred spot for ramen? Sorry, can’t say that on the first visit.”

“Great friendly service with a beautiful view of the strand. 👊😎”

“My friends who live in San Diego came here the first time and they all agreed that this is very cute restaurant and location. The foods are exellent and big vollumm. The staffs are very nice. We surelly come back.”

“Got a fig toast and a chai latte and both were delicious. Service was quick and the patio was very pleasant to sit down and eat at. Couldn't have asked for more.”

“I was pretty lucky I got to be the first customer but I get to come here only once a month so it’s a big treat for me store is very clean everybody was very friendly and welcoming I only get to eat food like this once a month as mentioned earlier but I absolutely love the number one with fries and that’s gonna be up to 1100 cal so if you’re watching your weight you need to be prepared to make this an all day experience. I love the pepper bar… I’ve always like pepperscini with my french fries but I can only have that every so often lol they have outdoor seating that’s heated they have a fountain filled with wonderful drinks and they’re open until 10 PM Monday through Sunday!”

“Came on a Sunday the vibe is great!! $15 bottomless mimosas 😋. There was live chill music that really made this place awesome. Our server was sweet & checked on us several times. I wasn't that hungry so I got the nachos. They were just average. The burgers around looked great so did the salads. Great place to people watch and chill out!”

“Great food, friendly staff w reasonable prices. Pedones has a outdoor patio w acoustic music on Fri & Sat. The menu has a wide variety from pasta, pizza, wings, appetizers, desserts as well as beer/wine”

“The food was amazing!! Would definitely visit this establishment again. Fast friendly service!!”

“My fiancé and I hosted a joint bachelorette/bachelor trip and showed up for brunch at Vista with a group of 16—without a reservation! The team was so accommodating, setting us up in a beautiful shaded outdoor lounge area and bringing extra seating without any fuss. The service was fantastic, with attentive staff making sure our drinks were never empty. Great vibes, amazing hospitality, and a perfect spot for groups! Highly recommend. Oh, and get a reservation.”

“Fun easy and casual place to watch the sunset. We were there for happy hour and the snacks were so good, crispy cheese curds and chicken bites. $8 spicy marg so good.”

“We tried this restaurant because another one closed. What a great choice. The staff was pleasant, courteous and attentive. The food was even better than that. The food was hot the menu had a large selection of delicious food to choose from. We will continue to go until we have tried the entire menu.”

“Great place to catch a game. Highly recommend.”
