The food is a hit or miss; everything else was great. The best part was the service and the dessert. The rolls were okay. The nigiri felt dry. Miso ramen was not for me.

Great service, friendly staff, and delicious food. We came here for brunch and got an outdoor table. Ordered the white sesame caesar salad and the Nashville spiced hot chicken karaage for starters to share. For the main dishes, we ordered the pork belly eggs benedict, breakfast sandwich, pork tonkatsu sandwich, and the yuzu shio butter ramen. Because it was my birthday, the restaurant gave me a handwritten card and a complimentary scoop of ube ice cream. Such a special touch and it really made my day.

Delicious food and strong, no-nonsense cocktails. Upscale-casual vibes, in a great location right next to the pier. Perfect for date night- catch an early dinner then head over to the pier see the sunset.

We had a nice dinner at Ryla yesterday. It was packed on the long weekend Monday night. While the service was nice and the food didn't take too long and tastes just amazing. We ordered the Hokkaido milk bread, the Yuzu pepper scallops roll as our starters, and the rib eye steak, the Lamb Chops as our main dishes. Everything was delicious and the portions were huge for the main course. We couldn't finish them and took some home. I will definitely go back and try some other dishes next time.

Amazing food and variety. Drinks were good and unique. Wait staff attentive and knowledgeable. Inside was super noisy.

Service was superb and food was tasty! Caesar and cod (seasonal) were the stars of the show. We will be back!
Ryla never disappointed. It's a flavor-fest with every bite. If you're in the South Bay, it's a must if you're a foodie. Don't miss the Korean Ribs, the Halibut, or the Ribeye. Macha Tiramisu for dessert. Yum!

We ordered food from the Happy Hour menu. We had the pork buns, tuna roll, chicken sliders, and halibut katsu. Our favorites were the pork buns and tuna roll. The grandmother cigarettes cocktail and the espresso martini were both excellent. Highly recommend this place!

Very loud in here and we were seated incredibly close to the other tables. I knocked their things off multiple times getting up to use the restroom. The food is good and the service is slow but very nice!

RYLA is hands-down one of the best dining experiences I've had in a long time. The location is perfect--right in the heart of Hermosa Beach and surrounded by other lively bars and venues, which made the whole evening feel like a mini getaway.
We had reservations and were seated immediately, which I appreciated. The interior is dimly lit with a romantic, aesthetic vibe--definitely a place where ambiance and detail matter.
Our server was fantastic: honest, attentive, and spot-on with every recommendation. You could tell he actually cared about the food and wanted us to have the best experience possible--and we did. Every single dish was bursting with flavor. I genuinely don't have a single complaint or critique. The bread? Warm, soft, and served with butter that tasted like it came straight from heaven.
But the *ice cream*... wow. The chef brought it out as a final touch, and it completely blew me away. I believe it was a non-dairy, plant-based flavor topped with *Frosted Flakes*--yes, Frosted Flakes! I would've never imagined that combo, but now I can't stop thinking about it. It was unique, nostalgic, and just so delicious.
I'm still dreaming about that meal weeks later. RYLA is definitely worth the hype and a must-visit if you're in the area. Can't wait to go back!
