“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!”
“Amazing Spring menu additions -striped bass and Delta Asparagus pizza. The yellowfin tuna crudo and burrata di Puglia bright and fresh. The Lasagna Arrotolato has the most delicious bolognese sauce. I could eat here every night!”

“We made a reservation for dinner at sunset and it did not disappoint. But let's talk food....absolutely amazing. The filet was melt in your mouth delicious. The hands cut fries were awesome as was the pizza. Service was great. Would definitely go there again when in the area. If this isn't on your list of places to try then your are definitely missing out!”

“North End Cafe is hands down my favorite breakfast and coffee spot in Manhattan Beach! This place has it all—from its prime location to the specialty coffees, incredible food, warm service, and chill vibe. Every time I come here, I leave happier.
Nacho, the best server on the planet, is a huge reason I love this place so much. He goes above and beyond with his friendly, attentive, and genuinely caring service. His positive attitude brightens your morning and really sets the tone for the day. If only the world had more people like him!
Must-try items? The Medici coffee is unique around here and so worth it (recommend asking it to be slightly less sweet), and the breakfast potatoes are an absolute dream. Love, love, love this gem of a cafe!”
“It was such a lovely venture out for my Mom’s birthday, on Friday. Alex and Dominique (management) are quite lovely, and helped make our dining experience all the more, a joy! Love the new additions to the menu, particularly the Mini Steak French Dips. The Chicken Parmesan was excellent with the twist of those ‘pepper-like sweet’ tomatoes. If there is ever something you want to bring back to the menu I would highly suggest the sliders, they were missed for sure lol! Looking forward to dining again here, soon. Cheers! ✨💖🥂”
“I think they serve the best hamburger I’ve ever had in my life! I drive down from LA once a month because I crave it so much.”
“We are from Germany, travelling for weeks across the USA, this IS definetly the best breakfast we have had between Europe and the USA, everything pure and fresh, the Service more than friendly , Like coming Home, at least 5 Stars and more, everybody must try out”

“I had the warmest experience at The Arthur J, from the hostess at the front door, the wait staff and the manager. I had recently lost my husband prior to my reservation and was determined to enjoy our anniversary dinner. Not only was a the food delicious, but the overall experience was beyond memorable. Thank you…. thank you. Can’t wait until I return for his birthday.”
“Visited Mercado for the first time yesterday after working in this neighborhood for the last five years and I’m amazed as to why I didn’t find this little job sooner. I went there with three coworkers for dinner at 5 o’clock. It was a little early, but the restaurant was about 25% full already. It’s a great ambience both indoor seating as well as outdoor seating. They have a happy hour menu. We chose their Carnitas nachos which although small it is packed with Carnitas and full of flavor for main dish I chose their Carnitas big plate which was amazing and it came separately with tortillas. My coworkers picked tacos from their happy hour menu one picked their fish tacos, which he gave a five star rating and two of my coworkers picked their shrimp tacos, which they also gave five star rating and they said it was very flavorful for dessert. We had the churros that came with condensed milk and chocolate syrup, and it was well presented and really delicious And the server also served us complementary Agua Fresca and the flavor of the day was cantaloupe, which was really really delicious will be there again and our server was very pleasant and fast.

“Ray was fantastic, Marilyn was wonderful and we had a brief hello with David Slay which was great. Lamb Shank and the Seafood were excellent. The escargot was perfect and the butter lettuce salad was lovely, all was delicious. Chocolate dessert was an excellent ending. We will return!”
“I visited The Hummus Factory in Manhattan Beach yesterday, craving some Lebanese food, and wow, I was blown away! The hummus is top-notch—easily one of the best I’ve ever had. I ordered the chicken shawarma plate, and the chicken was so juicy and flavorful. I also tried the gyro, and everything was just amazing. The pita was warm and soft, the salad fresh and crisp, and the lamb was perfectly marinated—it literally melted in my mouth.
My wife went for the Greek salad, and she couldn’t stop talking about how refreshing and light it was. If you're in the area and in the mood for some delicious Mediterranean food, this spot is a must-visit! I’ll definitely be back next time I’m in Manhattan Beach.”

“I got a coffee to take away from Pure Bean. I ordered the Lavender Honey Latte with oat milk and it was absolutely delicious. The staff was so friendly and answered my questions to help me choose the perfect drink. There were a lot of people inside the coffee shop and it would be a great place to bring my laptop and work from. It's quite bright inside with a lot of natural light and plants. Highly recommend checking out Pure Bean if you're in the area.

“They have the best sushi in Southern California. Spicy with crispy rice the crab ham roll the creamy popcorn shrimp with spicy tuna and BBQ short ribs, I haven’t tried everything, but I have tried is amazing.. I recommend this place to everyone if you like sushi you’ll love this place.
Parking: They have metered parking in a parking structure, as well as on the street. There’s at least two parking structures in the area. I have never had a problem finding parking.”
“Very welcoming hostess, excellent server (Mick), great menu and delicious food. Busy and noisy atmosphere, but you really don't notice it. A very comfortable restaurant. So good that we will return next week.”
Drive-Thru Restaurants
“What a treasure! Authentic French pastry delights. Try the savory ones — especially the Curry Ground Beef. Enjoy a stroll around the beachside Riviera Village corner of Redondo Beach, then reward yourself with homemade treats from this family run bakery. Small businesses like this are gems to find and a joy to support.”
“Manhattan Beach. YOU SHOULD GET 3 SCOOPS BUT 2 IS OK. 1 scoop was $6.25 and 2 was $6.75. 3 was $7 something. If you like toppings, the banana split is the way to go for $10.25. There were some seats outside, but this place was more like a take out place. Walk the beach and go to the promenade. The museum wasn't interesting.
Parking: Park on the street or public garage.
Wheelchair accessibility: The store was dense, but you can navigate with wheelchair”
“Wow! I can’t believe I did not try this location sooner. As soon as you walk in the vibe is amazing, but that’s not the best part. The aroma of everything being cooked is so appealing.
I had the miso soup combo with a California roll. The noodle, the pork, the egg and the broth was delicious. You have to try it for yourself!
The price was perfect and I had it to go (in all honesty I should have dined in, next time). I will come back to try more of the delicious food.
Kid-friendliness: I know my kids would love to come and eat here.
Wheelchair accessibility: Yes, location is very accessible.”
“Don't order from Door dash they mark up the prices over 30%. The breakfast burrito from here is great. They have a regular and a large one. Door dash will charge you more for the regular size on their app than the restaurant will charge for the large one in person. So if you want to order pick up just call ahead.”
“Starbucks at the Sepulveda & 9th is a welcoming place to sip a morning coffee. Really enjoyed kicking back, working and drinking their fresh brewed Blonde roast. Many Thanks to the early morning; bright, friendly and attentive staff who went above and beyond to ensure my endless cup remained full. Love the return of the café refill and self-service dairy station.”
“A joy to be at Rice, the staff so attentive, a celebration of small plates filling our table for three. A perfect sunny evening shared.”

“Last week I was traveling through LA on my way to Santa Barbara. I had some time to kill so I looked up Poke. Came across this amazing place! I am admittedly new to Poke. The staff took good care of me and I wound up having such a hard decision. I think the spicy Poke might have been might absolute favorite. I can’t wait for my next trip to LA so I can stop there again!”
“It’s not fancy, it’s just good food served up fast and hot! Big menu with lots of options. We did a very casual Father’s Day brunch here. Be mindful that parking can be sticky so not there is a lot a block or two, to the North. Also, it can get busy on weekend mornings!

“Brooklyn Brick Oven pizza truly delivers the taste of New York! As a picky connoisseur of authentic New York pizza, I'm thrilled to say this place exceeded my expectations. The pizza was simple and straight to the point, with a perfectly crispy crust. Every bite was a delightful reminder of why New York pizza is renowned worldwide. Highly recommend!”
“Barsha is the perfect place to enjoy wine in South bay. The wine selection is unique and reasonably priced, and the staff is exceptional. We had a cheese board with a variety of dips and baguette, all of which paired perfectly with the wine.”
