New American Restaurants near Rancho Palos Verdes, CA

“Came to celebrate my 2 year anniversary and it was just so beautiful. We sat outside for a beautiful view. Cenobio was our server and he was absolutely excellent. He gave great recommendations for the food and as well as future plans when we decide to come visit again. The whole staff was super welcoming and helpful. Definitely will be coming back.“

“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.“

“It was my friend birthday lunch. Waitress Bronica was super nice and her smile was amazing! brought us a nice & Fun atmosphere.

“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.“

“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!“

“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.“

“Food was excellent and so was the service. Menu is creative with lots of choices of dishes to share. We enjoyed the biscuits and the fries and the pretzel. Pastas were also excellent as was the grilled skirt steak. Our server made some helpful suggestions too.“

“Had the Thai bowl... YUM!“

“I checked in the Shade Hotel Manhattan Beach at night. I ate alone at Zinc in the hotel 1F for dinner. The man at the bar was very pleasant service. I couldn't drink, so I ordered a slice of lemon in the hot water. And I ordered Crispy Skin Norweigan Salmon. There was a risotto under the crispy grilled salmon w skin, which was a little thick, but the taste was mild and easy to eat. This dish was well served with the hot lemon water I ordered. I liked the place where I could relax alone. I'm thinking about what to eat next time.“

“Delicious, a wonderful experience and loved the waitress!“

“The fish bar is in a great location the bartender Rose makes amazing drinks she friendly & attentive. She knows you by name. The food was great atmosphere is relaxed all the staff treats you like family. Highly recommend!“

“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.“

“Great experience for my husband and friends! They went on a guys trip, I booked in advance, spoke with the team that was really sweet and helpful. Customer service and total experience was top tier! Thanks for a great time, very excited to visit again!“

“Love and Salt is a great restaurant if you are looking for loud and energetic! It is not romantic or for a large family. It is very overpriced to me. Great chop salad, Great pizza's and Pasta. The drinks are way over priced 24.00! My son and I eat out a lot and like boogie restaurants but for 2 people and it was way over 200.00! But for a one time experience it is worth it.“

“Great environment, great service, and delicious food. My second time and not the last for sure. Highly recommend it.“

“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.“

“This restaurant is one of my favorites in the South Bay. The food was excellent. I was there for my 54th birthday and the free surf and turf was delicious. It was so much food that I had to take some to go. My husband and sons loved their meals. They love the ambiance and would be eager to come back. You made my birthday celebration perfect. Thank you so much! I will recommend your establishment over and over again!“

“This was our first time eating here, and I highly recommend it. The food was great, and the staff was excellent. Our waitress was very friendly and made us feel at home. The ambience is very cool and inviting. The wedge salad, chicken, kebabs, and, mac & cheese were great. But what we really came for did not let us down, which was the campfire s'mores dessert. We are planning on returning very soon just for the dessert!“

“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!“

“Simply Bellisimo. Perfection.“

“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!“

“Love their ground beef tacos delicious!!!“

“Everything we ordered was fantastic.“

“Highly recommended, this is a very good restaurant“

“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.“

“We ate outside, on their roof, which was quiet. Heat lamps were available. Service very attentive and friendly, conveying that your patronage was appreciated. Food very good. Since I had told them when I made the reservation that it was an anniversary dinner, they comped a hot fudge sundae dessert. On Tuesdays, some bottles of wine from their wine list are half price, making it less expensive to buy the bottle than to buy two glasses.“

“Amazing service and food!!! The cocktails are fresh and delicious. AND THEY HAVE BLANTON'S BOURBON!!! Lovely ambiance and AWESOME outdoor space. Cute little coffee cart on the patio. Open 7-2pm. One of the best avocado toast and Tuna Sandwiches I have EVER HAD!!! Don't skip on the Hanger steak and truffle fries.“

“Good service. Excuisite cuisines“

“Great food and atmosphere.“

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

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

“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!“

“My favorite local bar/restaurant. Always new food and drinks on the menu and everything hits. Service is top-notch and the patio is great for a nice day. Come here every Sunday during football season for New York Giants games and they also pack out for UFC cards.“

“I was recommended to go to this place from a mate who used to go there all the time when he lived in LA before it was renovated. my first night in America and This was my go to venue and I can say I was definitely NOT disappointed. There was an awesome vibe, I was on my own so I just asked for a spot at the bar. The food was awesome a good variety to select and what I had I was really happy with. Above all else Amber at the bar was a total gem. she was engaging. She was Friendly, was busy, She knew her craft and was very welcoming. Amber is credit to the owners and what they're are building. Absolutely would be coming back to this place again.“

“Friendly staff. Inclusive environment.“

“Bazille is an in-house restaurant inside of Nordstrom. It's located on the second level of the store in the women's lingerie section (which is a little odd). The menu selection is superb as well as their craft cocktails. I recommend the flank steak which is served with roasted potatoes and asparagus. The homemade rolls are delicious! They offer both indoor and outdoor seating options.“

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

“What a great place to get some friends together to eat and catch up on years of memories. A comfortable lounge environment, tasty food, and great staff making sure we have everything we need.“

“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!“
