New American Restaurants near Rancho Palos Verdes, CA

“Delicious food 😋 great service and the sunset 🌇 was amazing 👍💯“

“This is the restaurant located at the spa and they have the BEST breakfast options at the resort. The flight of jams was to die for served with a variety of fresh baked bread. I would have to say you should book a spa treatment just to have a chance to eat breakfast here.“

“We had an amazing experience at Trump national Golf club for dinner. We ordered the 16oz ribeye and salmon, both were done to perfection. The dessert was out of this world. Service was top notch, and the Interior and surroundings are just stunning. We loved it & highly recommend it.“

“The environment is very good, and the service is good.“

“The California Zen mocktail is probably the best thing I’ve ever had. Candied ginger, lemongrass, turmeric, ginger…“

“Good lunch“

“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!“

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

“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.“

“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!“

“Overall a nice stay: friendly staff, nice updated facilities, free ♿️ valet👌-3 to 4 blocks from beach. Very expensive at $500 per night, used the 2 $10 free tickets at bar for 2 drinks and still owed $8.36. This was the host hotel and stayed 2 nights Fri/Sat July 22-23, 2022, with hamburger & soup in room, total $1100. T.“

“At first glance, you probably thought Google Maps directed you to the wrong address. There's no way this is the correct burger restaurant, but looks can be deceiving. With a sketchy-looking "order inside" sign on the wall outside, you walk into the liquor store and see this hole-in-the-wall burger joint.

I ordered the classic hamburger and regular fries to be on the safe side, but I wish I had been braver to try out the other options. The total costs for the hamburger and fries came out to be ~$20 with a tip. The hamburger felt like a homemade hamburger fresh from off the grill. The fries were a little salty but goes perfect with the ketchup. We ate outside on the tables since there weren't any available seats inside or public bathrooms that we saw, although I could be wrong.

Summary:
- BATHROOM. I didn't see one but there could be one inside the liquor store for customers only.
- CLEANLINESS. The presentation of the food was good. Nothing spilled and all utensils were in the bag.
- COSTS. $ Decently priced for the quality.
- CUSTOMER SERVICE. The staff were very fast. It took about 10 minutes for the food to come out.
- FOOD QUALITY. The ingredients are fresh and super tasty. Nothing frozen, generic, or bland. Something about hamburgers make me nostalgic.
- FOOD QUANTITY. A decently sized meal.
- WAIT TIME. About a 10 minute wait.“

“We took some out of town guests here for lunch. Everyone was delighted. They loved watching the cars race on the track! Drinks were delicious 😋 We all ordered different items for lunch. All pleased with what they got. Would recommend and look forward to going back again.“

“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! ✨💖🥂“

“So far I have tried the spicy Korean fried chicken bowl, pork belly bowl and japchae, all of delicious. Always fresh. My toddler only likes japchae from an AYCE kbbq in Garden Grove, but she has approved of yours. 10/10 every time. I am always greeted with a smile. I will keep coming back.“

“We love this restaurant and enjoy manager Mark when we see him (congrats on the baby!). We typically sit at the bar but had a table last night. Our servers were nice, one was training. Whether due to the bar or just training, it took us 20 min after sitting down to get our first drink and place our initial order. Not a big deal. Our reservation was at 6:00. We had two glasses of wine each , some food items, and then dessert. At the conclusion of dessert at 7:15, the check was dropped without asking if we wanted anything else. Then the manager came over at around 7:20, no later than that, and asked if he could take our wine glasses. I said “well I think we'd like to order another glass of wine if that's ok.” He seemed annoyed and said we have another reservation for this table at 7:30 but I'll let your servers know. (The server did return and told us we couldnt in fact order another glass of wine but could go to the bar.) So for our night out and reservation we had essentially a one-hour period to enjoy ourselves before being pressured out by the manager. Really unfortunate. We left a big tip for the servers because they were friendly and it's not their fault they were being pressured. But dang, poor people skills by the manager and way to make some regulars feel unwelcome. We left without spending any more money and not sure we'll actually return, which is unfortunate since we really like this restaurant, Mark, the bartenders, servers, food runners. If this is the only restaurant I've heard of that places 1 hr 20 min window for a reservation, no problem, just tell us and we'll reserve elsewhere. But springing that on us at the end and having us feel unwelcome, pretty passive-aggressive and poor customer service.“

“This was a wonderful experience from start to finish. The food, the people, the atmosphere. I came here for dinner with my best friend and we left so full, happy, and excited to come back again. It was nostalgic but we’ve never been here before. Very grateful for the over hospitality and ambience of the place as a whole but we will be coming back with more friends and Family!

“Great local spot in a great area. Wonderful staff. Our server and the managers were very attentive. And when we had an issue with some thing, they remedied it right away. The food was much better than my memory of it the last time I was there. I hadn't been here in a long time, but I will definitely be putting this on my regular rotation now. The prices are decent and the food is solid and it's an easy place to go with two people or eight people. “

“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!“

“Love their ground beef tacos delicious!!!“

“Simply Bellisimo. Perfection.“

“Everything we ordered was fantastic.“

“Highly recommended, this is a very good restaurant“

“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!“

“Food was good, you could sit inside or out. The service was good but we had just finished our food and we were finishing up our drinks when our waitress just leans across the table to start restocking items. She got one walked away then came back a minute or two later 5 times. Never said excuse me or anything. There were plenty of open tables. Just didn't feel like she was very polite. My and my friends opinion.“

“Hudson House is not just a restaurant; it's a vibe, and I'm here for it all! While everyone flocks here for their cheap Taco Tuesdays (and yes, they're great), the real magic happens during their “early” happy hour on Fridays at 3 PM and their unmissable jazz brunch on Sundays. The staff makes the experience unforgettable. Justin and Dani are absolute rockstars—not just as servers but as wicked bartenders! Their drink-making skills are unmatched, and they always make you feel like the most important guest in the room. It's clear the “not-so-new” owner, Kate, trained them to perfection—her expertise and charisma shine through in every aspect of the restaurant. And let me tell you, Kate is even more awesome in person! She keeps the energy high and the standards even higher. Hudson House is my go-to spot for fantastic food, perfectly crafted cocktails, and a welcoming atmosphere that keeps me coming back. This place is more than a hidden gem—it's a staple. Highly recommend! Pro Tip: Don't sleep on their Friday happy hour or Jazz Sunday brunch; they're the real stars of the week. •A loyal regular!“

“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.“

“Good service. Excuisite cuisines“

“Came across the on a walk back from Venice Beach. Highly recommend.“

“Great food and atmosphere.“

“They needed better air conditioning and accurate time for pick up food was cold.“

“I have breakfast here whenever I am in town. Amazing food“

“Sally salmon sandwich is so delectable!“

“Wow so freaking good!! Genuinely the best bowl I’ve ever had. I got the mixed grilled chicken bowl with lemon thyme sauce while my boyfriend got the same but with the chipotle sauce. Both were great! Pretty cute they wrote a little thank you note on the take out box too:)

If I were to complain about anything it would be to add a little more protein portion to eat bowl. Otherwise I highly recommend this place!“

“The staff are wonderful and make you feel so at home!!!“

“Really great food + specials and we had such a fabulous waitress we shall be back!“

“Friendly staff. Inclusive environment.“

“I just got married this past July at one of the LA City Parks venues. They only use a couple of vendors for bar services. We shopped around all three options and Made By Meg offered the best selection of alcohol and at the best price. It was super easy getting quotes and adjusting things as need be. They even worked with us to get a special IPA offering from a microbrewery. The bartender did a great job at the day of the event and was very attentive to everyone's drink needs. Would use them again if we have another party!“

“Visited this place with Wifey, things were good but not great. I think our server had a bad day or something. There were two males assisting our server who offered great service with smiles. Our female server did not warm up until it was time to pay our bill. We still tipped her because we know folks need to work 2x harder in the current economy. The food was good and the portions were great. I will come back and give them another try. Lastly, the bright spot here is their patio which is very relaxing. As you dine, great views of PCH street action - despite this round of ok service, I'll be back!“
