50 Best Salad Restaurants near Hermosa Beach

“The Baseline: For a sit down upper-scale restaurant is the quality of the food, existence of any unique offerings, quality of the service, and ambiance of the overall dining experience.

Food: There was not a single dish that we had at Slay Hermosa that wasn’t great. Appetizers were the Fried Calamari and Watermelon Salad and wow to the salad. The Watermelon salad had an incredible white vinaigrette and tajin spice. Get this salad! The Double Smash burger was a solid burger. The entree star was the Pork Chop that was cooked perfectly and the bed of sweet corn risotto made it wonderful. For the finish was the Butter Cake that was warm and dense like I love it. Mixed with the ice cream with berry drizzle and my Cafe au Lait it was a perfect ender to the meal.

Service: Fantastic top notch service that covered us for our visit. We were always asked at the right time if we needed anything. Also we got the best suggestions from our waiter.

Ambiance: Hermosa Beach on a rooftop dining area right at sunset… perfect time to dine and all will be fine. Great setting for a great meal. Didn’t use the restroom but it was getting cleaned when I left. The dining area was clean and the restaurant while compartmentalized is very serviceable.“

“first time eating here and will def be back! delicious food, plenty of parking, and clean facilities. they have a couple self-order machines, and though me and my friend were the only customers there, they wanted us to use the machines instead of taking our order. other than that, had a great experience.“

“You don’t write because you want to say something, you write because you have something to say. Let’s begin this elite review. :D

The Source Cafe (est 2017) is a popular and fun little breakfast spot right on Pier Avenue in Hermosa Beach. It has a cool vibe, lots of fun things on the menu, healthy smoothies, and baked pastries. Interior design and layout were brilliant with abundant natural light.

We came on an early weekend morning to grab breakfast; it was my first time at this cafe. I was warmly greeted by a male staff with a smile. I ordered an iced coffee and avocado toast. Both items were solid. Breakfast AT was delightful and healthy.
Services were spot on. Prices were fair for the area. Plenty of street metered parking.

Overall, this cafe is a good spot for breakfast. I recommend it.“

“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!“

“Almost too hip of an atmosphere. Looks futuristic and like a hipster puked all over it but it’s still cute. I miss the old schnackenbergs! This place looks odd in old cute charming uptown Hoboken. It’s very Portland-esque. Good salad tho.“

“Had the best tortilla soup ever! And Chef Steven Lutz circulating through the restaurant to say hi and assure everyone having great food and service was a treat. Don’t miss the baked goods like banana cream pie. Amazing! Very pleased and will be back again!“

“We had excellent food and service from Kenni!“

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

“This is a great concept for a takeout restaurant with prepared meals. I got the cilantro rice, spicy black beans, a buddha bowl with tofu, and honey spicy sweet potatoes for a great price. Some items were 25% off because they were going out of date the next day, but they lasted in my fridge, and still tasted fresh, for 3 days. They also have meat entrees, but I really appreciated their vegan options. The only reason I didn't give Everytable five stars is because they use more oil than I prefer. The food is yummy, but wish they'd use less oil, at least on the vegan dishes. And, the service was helpful, especially for my first time there. The location in Torrance has a small area with tables and chairs and they will heat up your food, if you prefer your meal warm.“

“terrific food. very flavorful and healthy.“

“This was literally one of the best salads I’ve ever had. You’re going to become a regular in our rotation.“

“Went to South Bay Pizza for lunch today and was so happy I did. I ordered the PCH Pesto Personal Pizza, it was delicious as well as the caesar salad, the homemade croutons made it really tasty and super good. Luis is the coolest guy & made sure my lunch was tops. Big shout out & I will be going back again soon.“

“It was hard to find the restaurant because it was in the back corner of a business complex. It's very easy to miss, but there's plenty of parking at least. Me and 2 friends ordered from the kiosk and waited about 15m for 3 sandwiches and fries. Inside it's quite small with only a table and bar with 4 seats each.

I got the Signature Sandwich with LVL 2 sauce. The sandwich was massive, and the chicken was so thick, incredibly juicy, and perfectly cooked. The breading and cabbage were crunchy too. The mayo was a creamy complement to the chicken without being overpowering. The spicy sauce was served on the side, and it was so deliviously flavorful and not only spicy. My only complaint here is that I wish there was more spicy sauce and that it was spread inside the sandwich, because I kept forgetting to drizzle sauce on between bites and still ran out.

The salt and vinegar fries tasted exactly like the Lay's flavor but with more potato from the fries, of course. Honestly the fries were nothing special but they gave so much that the box was overflowing.

I tried my friend's Kimchi Egg Sandwich too. The ham was pretty forgettable or missable, but the egg was delicious. The egg was incredibly moist, sweet, and delicately salty, and it paired well with the mild acidity of the kimchi.

We chatted with the owner a bit when we picked up our food and she was very sweet and kind. She made sure we had everything we needed to enjoy our meal. I hope more people check this place out, because it's unfortunately very missable in its current location. I'm going to come back but will definitely share a sandwich next time.“

“Great pizza and knots! Visiting from Arizona. Owners very friendly and great customer service. Wish we had one of these in Arizona. Definitely we would give 5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️.Thanks till the next visit!“

“Healthy and affordable. One of my absolute favorite places in the South Bay and I go at least once a week ! I often order online and it is always ready on time when I go to pick it up. The staff are super friendly and kind. I LOVE THE BURGER !! I hope they make it a permanent menu item. The cauliflower is also a staple in our household!“

“I’ve been to a few different everytables and so far this is one of the best locations i’ve been to! Sara, Manwell, Monique and Estrella have been VERY HELPFUL AND VERY welcoming which is one thing i always look for when i walk into anywhere! They make me feel comfortable every time i walk in! Truly wonderful people and i HIGHLY recommend this place!“

“Great salads and wonderful service. will definitely be returning.“

“Great food and atmosphere.“

“We were supposed to go to Sunday gravy and the wait was too long so we ended up here and the food was actually phenomenal. I was definitely go back if Im in the area again. I did a build my own pasta and the regular size was the perfect amount. I got it with hot pink sauce and the spice level was just right. The vibes are pretty nice on the inside too“

“Delicious food and friendly workers“

“I love simply salad in general but today they went SO above and beyond that I feel compelled to leave a review. I accidentally placed my order at the wrong location. When I showed up to pick up the order at the end of a really long day and realized my mistake, the staff took a picture of my receipt and whirled into action to fully remake my order in minutes. They were unbelievable and absolutely made my day.“

“Love my Salad 💕💕It was the bomb 💣“

“the food was great and I got the recommendation from a women that was walking down the street. she said she loves the place“

“Great food friendly service perfect pizza place for our town 🤙“

“Everything ; food; service“

“In my 60 years (GASP) on this planet I have NEVER EVER had such an amazingly great pizza!! You cannot go wrong here!!“

“just check your takeout meal is complete before you leave they forgot my pita bread huhu“

“(Translated by Google) Regarding the food, it tastes good and the dressings for dips and sauces give it the perfect touch, prices from $20 and up ☝️Very good(Original)Referente a la comida esta tiene buen sabor y los aderezo para dip y salsas le dan el toque perfecto precios de $20 a arriba ☝️Muy bien“

“Definitely try this place if you have not yet. It’s a mom and pop with a modern approach, the food does not lack, it is incredible. Chicken shawarma plate is my favorite!

Update: added a photo of the meal- they are so sweet and really care about the food they make! You get so much for a reasonable price.“

“The food is fire! The service is mediocre, and the atmosphere is trash (literally). There was a city trash can right outside the restaurant door overfilled with garage and reeking of piss. As for inside of the restaurant, it is very small and crammed. You’re almost standing on top of other people as you wait in line to order or wait for your food to be ready.

As for the food… wow!! 10 out of 10. I ordered the Koren fried chicken (sweet & spicy) and a side of steamed rice. I cannot wait to go back and order this again. I killed the entire meal and did not leave anything behind. My wife ordered the Spicy Mayo Chicken bowl and the Fried Chicken Dumplings. The portion size was huge! She could not finish it. The spicy sauce was too spicy and overpowered the flavor of the chicken, rice, and veggies. Rating this bowl a 4 out of 10 on the spicy overkill.

The prices here are AMAZING! We only spent $25 for our food, drove to Manhattan beach, and enjoyed it while watching the sunset. Our food was still hot after the 35 min drive.“

“Great salad! Love the option to add your favorite veggies 🥗“

“Amazing Experience! The Food is Delicious and Creative. The Margarita’s are just as unique and delicious, and the STAFF make you feel at home❣️🤗 Great Staff, Delicious Food & Great Drinks! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Thank you for your wonderful hospitality❣️“

“This is a neat place to grab some fish to eat. Nice variety of fish and preparation options, with a good selection of side dishes too. Staff is friendly and artentive providing prompt service. Oh yes, the meals are absolutely delicious. Overall a solid 5/5. 👌“

“Have lunch with co-workers every week here. Great food and very friendly service. Best Thai food I've found in the South Bay area!“

“Best Persian food in Torrance“

“Only in town one day and ate here twice. Such a beautiful find. Kind staff. Good food. I wish I lived closer.“

“First time there, the food was awesome and customer service was excellent.“

“Amazing chicken. Simply delicious.“

“100% recomendado los mejores de LA“

“First time eating at this establishment. If it wasn't for the cook offering the samples we would not have discovered this place. The crispy chicken sandwich was delicious and if you are vegetarian ask for the pesto avocado that is not on the menu. Give it try you will not be disappointed. PS they make their own onion rings.“

“Great creative sushi rolls. Excellent service.“

“My absolute favorite sandwich is the Not so fried chicken sandwich. I love it so much. The little crispy pieces give it a nice crunch & the pickled onion Yum. I could eat one at least 3xs a week. I wish I could speak on other things here but I’m stuff on this meal right now. lol. Everything always looks fresh & good though.“

“Friendly staff and great food and lots of parking in front!“

“Good food(easy pickup to go), nice service & a parking lot behind...Thanks. Plan to visit again soon/often“

“Was craving Thai food and was on our from LA to Orange County. Found this place to have excellent reviews on google. We ordered pad Thai , basil chicken and shrimp fried rice. The food tasted extra ordinary. Haven’t had such amazing food in a long time , that not only tasted exceptional but looked great as well. The service was awesome as well and so was the ambiance. Would definitely recommend.“

“Food is always awesome, just wished there was more parking sometimes.“

“One size fits all, this is some big boy pizza where they don't skimp on inches.

Remember this equation for all pizza or pie purchases: A = π * (d/2)²
A = amount of pizza
d = diameter of pizza

Meatballs are great also!“

“Very great place to eat, I just went there today the salad is so good!! 🤗❤️“
