The gnocchi is delicious. Ever since I had it the first time, I crave it often. The eggplant appetizer is such a comfort food my family loves. Their craft drinks are great and I especially enjoy my Negroni. The atmosphere is romantic and modern with old family photos of the Radici family. Radici has become my home away from home when it comes to eating authentic Italian food.
Vegetarian options: My son is vegetarian and he always finds the perfect dish and appetizers for himself.

We first dined at Radici in April 2024 (for our anniversary). We've been back a few times since and the food + service + ambiance is EXCEPTIONAL. Absolutely incredible experience every single time. If only we could give more than 5 stars! Laura (the owner) is kind and gracious and wonderful, and you can tell she pours her heart into the entire experience for her team as well as her clientele. From the moment the front of the house calls to confirm your reservation, to the friendly smiles you'll receive when you walk in the door, as well as the charismatic bartenders and wait staff, you'll always feel very well cared for. We love this spot and look forward to returning often!

Actual Italians own and run this gem. Nona (grandma) literally makes the manicotti in the back bc she doesn’t want to give anyone her recipe haha. New GM Giorgio at front is also Italian and super friendly! Red sauce is incredible, manicotti ricotta - incredible (not on menu, bartender recommended). Spaghetti burrata - simple light and incredible. Both parm’s - incredible. Even the dang spaghetti side is delish.
Over our visits both Laura the owner and Giorgio the GM have come and spent time chatting with my wife and I and made us feel like special guests in a family place, felt a lot like Italy in those moments where someone passionate about quality, simplicity and elegance cared about our experience.
We will be back here a lot now.
Pro tip - sit at the bar or talk to Giorgio and ask what's the best dish - it may not be on the menu!

Terrible customer service when they screwed up a 10 person reservation and they cancelled it … then they billed me $250 for the cancellation (which I didn’t do) and told me it was their policy…. I’ll never go there ever again.. terrible customer. Service on an issue they caused… their mistake ….

A very nice and small Italian restaurant with great food and service. Some nice vegetarian options are available. Pasta is freshly made in house and done very well. Parking is major problem. Not easy to find a place to park the car. Plan ahead if you are driving .
Vegetarian options: Paste with tomato sauce, garlic bread, side of veggies
Radici is a lovely restaurant and the food and service were excellent. We highly recommend both dishes we had, the Bolognese and the linguini with shrimp. We then had the Tiramisu for dessert, authentic and delicious. We will most definitely return to this outstanding restaurant next time we are in Hermosa Beach.

I am quite the foodie and everything we had was absolutely excellent. From the sweetest melon with prosciutto at the start to the the perfectly prepared salmon for our main course to the Limoncello digestive made from scratch. Definitely worth a visit!

WOW! Something has changed here. We came a few times 6+ months ago and food was a little bland, steak bad, just not something I wanted to review. This time, new manager at front who is Italian! Red sauce is incredible, manicotti ricotta - incredible (not on menu, bartender recommended). Spaghetti burrata - simple light and incredible. Giorgio the Italian GM came and spent time chatting with my wife and I and made us feel like special guests in a family place, felt a lot like Italy in those moments where someone passionate about quality, simplicity and elegance cared about our experience. We will be back here weekly now. Pro tip - sit at the bar or talk to Giorgio and ask what's the best dish - it may not be on the menu!

Radici's is a hidden Gem!! First of all I would like to say that the staff there are awesome and kind. The food was amazing and this was my first time having Italian food. I had the "gnocchi di patate radici" (Housemade potato & spinach gnocchi with stilton and parmigiano cream al gratin) and the "Salmone Grigliato Al Limone". The Salmon was packed with flavor and was cooked to perfection. I definetly will be coming back and referring friends and family.

Wade Reese is the mayor but has never (or rarely has) eaten here. 😝 He’s my friend so I can say this.
Too dark. Not enough on the menu to choose from. My steak was mostly fat; the price seriously too high for such poor quality.
