38 Best American Restaurants in Redondo Beach

“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.“

“Everything we ordered was fantastic.“

“Atmosphere, taste of food, customer service is always great! To say more, drink selection is great, especially wine selection! Many new name from new world and friendly sommelier help us choose great wine. Please check this place out! Everything is fabulous!!“

“Attended a 70th Birthday Happy. The bar tender was great. Thank you moose lodge.“

“WOW! What a place! I am literally in love with this place and their food! Becky gives the best service which makes you want to keep coming back! The place is maintained so well! I loved the chicken wings and the churro with ice cream! So fresh and made on the spot!“

“There weren't enough chips provided with the ceviche, and so we asked for a few more. I was very surprised that we were charged $2 for the extra chips when the problem was they didn't provide enough to begin with. The waiter also did not tell us before we got the bill that we would be charged. Very petty“

“This place is Fantastic!
The staff is really kind and helpful.
Everyone here is enjoying themselves because they are getting great tasting food, drinks and desserts, with excellent service and at inexpensive prices (hard to believe nowadays, I know!). Enjoy ?“

“This place was good in and out had delicious burgers. We had two whole meals me and my friend each, it was it was wow! But there’s something else one has to compliment, which is their treatment of the customers, and their treatment of children all whom were waiting in a along queue. The staff was kind they were helpful in a stressful environment. They gave special attention to small kids and oh boy I got a compliment this because what I saw at this restaurant how the staff treated this young kid
Who was, jumping around, waiting for his meal in such a beautiful way that has to be noted so this is a solid 5 star“

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

“Excellent seafood and dessert“

“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!“

“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.“

“Simply Outstanding!

From the minute you walk up the steps, you're greeted with friendly faces. The dining area is beautiful, especially for a romantic evening. The bar is fabulous with an amazing selection of fine beverages.

Moving onto the food, the squid starter is exquisite and just melts in your mouth. The Cioppino was to die for. I think I cried a little at how astonishing it tasted. The service was terrific, with very friendly staff.

The views of the harbour were dazzling, especially with the evening breeze coming through the slightly opened windows.

This restaurant deserves every bit of praise I read about it. It was so good, my wife and I went back the following evening to do it all again.

I'm running out of words to describe Baleen Kitchen - phenomenal and exceptional indeed.

Brilliant!“

“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!“

“came here on a whim because i feeling their patio vibes. great atmosphere and truly amazing customer service. have to mention the incredible drink too!

only reason i docked a star for food was that the guac wasn’t as good as everything else. but i inhaled the chips it came with. i heard another table say they’re made in house. perfect chip. got a shrimp and fish tacos shrimp was great but that was one of the best fish tacos ive ever had AND they have a taco tuesday special? 🥳

have to say for the record that their Caipirinha was better than the one i had on vacation in south america.

would absolutely recommend and seek riviera house out when i’m back in the area!

THANK you for letting me camp and make calls on your patio for two hours today!!“

“The food is excellent and so affordable“

“Love this place!!! Great fusion restaurant with a wide variety of dishes. Had an intimate family gathering and sat outside, they have strong heaters and service is fantastic. The manager always walking around and servers visit tables frequently unlike others. The hot fudge Sunday is the only thing on menu needing some work but a solid 5 stars from all of us!!“

“Food is good sweet older guy behind the counter. They cook the food when u order comes out hot !!! Fresh

Parking: Recommend on parking between Macy’s and the theater, but not inside the garage go up to the third floor at the food court

Kid-friendliness: Lots of places for the kids to run around because it’s inside the food court at the mall

Wheelchair accessibility: Plenty of room to get around“

“great place to be with amigos y resto“

“Never have I been disappointed or dissatisfied by the service or the food. I average going there about 2-4 times a month. Most of the time it’s taking family, friends and car club members there for good eats. Food is always fresh, hot and served fast.“

“Fabulous place to eat, absolutely love it.“

“Great local place to hang out and play pool! Best bartenders in the South Bay!“

“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!“

“Great Place for kids! …..“

“Delicious food and beautiful decor!“

“Great service. Good food.“

“Amazing food in a casual setting. Certainly worth the visit !!“

“Love it!
Just not cheap ?
I don’t remember what day me and my cousin went out to get food for the night after midnight 12:00a.m. We were thinking about getting some McDonald’s but we saw the drive-through line. It was too packed so we decided to go to Taco Bell. We get there and the drive-through packed also we ended up going to Fatburger. Guess what, It was empty not to busy ??‍♂️??“

“Have been to many Cheesecake Factory's but this was my first time at the Redondo Beach location. The group I was with ordered brunch and it was well prepared and very tasty. Our event was held upstairs and the area was very spacious with a view looking into the beach. Parking is valet ONLY but our group validated. Service was prompt and professional.“

“The food was good! The fried shrimp were tasty, the clam chowder bowl was huge and tasted really good, and the onion rings were well made! Some other reviews of this place said it was slow but we got our food pretty fast and the service was good! We were there on a Saturday night and it was really busy but we only waited maybe 10 minutes. Overall a really good place to eat and visit! Head across the street for a tasty churro too!“

“Sandy I met the first day it open when he bought taco too in the 70s great beef burrito n still come there from Visalia ca to eat.“

“We were seated beside the window with an amazing view of the marina. The Jamaican black pepper shrimp and the dulce de leche cheesecake made our day! Fillet mignon was tender and cooked the way I liked (medium) flavorwise, it’s just so-so. Staff were attentive and friendly. Their member’s rewards seem vague. No direct explanation on what would i get everytime i dine.“
