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.“

“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!“

“very beautiful scenery by the ocean, we had an awesome waiter name Elliot , We both had prime rib 16 oz steak. I had a berry lemon drop it was ok... Not a big enough portion though for the price of it. it was only a scoop of potatoes for that nice size steak.“

“My favorite restaurant in South Bay LA. Grass-fed beef. Organic produce from farmer's markets. Fabulous wine list featuring small, organic & biodynamic producers. Plus a great value! Gotta love PSP Steak!“

“Love the food here 👍 excellent service love the location 😎“

“Best burgers 🍔 ever. Missed them.“

“We had a pleasant lunch enjoying good food from an extensive menu. In
Access to the restaurant is difficult because it is located on a busy street and has a limited number of parking spaces in the rear.
Inside seating is best in the patio.
From all appearances, it looks like a popular neighborhood cafe with efficient take out service“

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

“Very good fish and chips. Service was great. It was a little noisy but that's normal for a semi fast food restaurant. There's food is by no means fast food as it's a seafood restaurant and the seafood is good quality restaurant food.“

“Excellent seafood and dessert“

“First visit and was not dissatisfied. Heard about the place through friends and the Yelp reviews backed up the claims. Nice gem of a place… I had the Protein Scramble and my wife had the Waffles! All the food was amazing and made to order🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 A comfortable lounge environment, tasty food, and great staff making sure we have everything we need. Definitely will be heading back…….with friends and family…“

“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!“

“The food is excellent and so affordable“

“Nice place for breakfast. Not to busy and service was great. A little pricey.“

“My husband and I loved the Philly cheesesteaks! We met the owner, Sergio, and his wife. They are the sweetest couple! The food was delicious and the friendly interactions were great. Highly recommend this place for anyone looking for a filling meal and a reasonable price! We got two Philly cheesesteaks, one with fries and the other with potato salad, and a large fountain drink to share. Total was $33. They had just enough jalapeños to give that spice, but not too many that it was distracting from the other ingredients. Come check them out!“

“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!!“

“Great place for drinks, food, and awesome staff. Will stop in again when back in town. Being retired from the food industry and family members owns a lot of bars and restaurants all over the U.S. especially New Orleans. I would give this place 2 👍 👍.“

“The best value in the South Bay Free pool“

“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!!“

“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.“

“Delicious food and beautiful decor!“

“Fabulous place to eat, absolutely love it.“

“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!“

“Great Place for kids! …..“

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

“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. “

“Great service. Good food.“

“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 ??‍♂️??“

“the view 😍 the food was delicious 😋“

“Although it was a Monday night, we did wait over 2 hours because there were a lot of graduations going on this week. After we sat down our order was taken right away and the food came out fast. Services was good as well. Kept the food order simple a club sandwich.“

“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.“
