Turquoise Restaurant

Had the pleasure of enjoying a nice lunch here. Ordered the kale salad which was vibrant and decadent and the taste lived up to the visual. Ordered the chicken kabob and koobideh and must say it was one of the most juicy and flavorful chicken dishes I have the pleasure to taste. The koobideh also was seasoned well and cooked to the right temperature. I definitely recommend in here if you are in the area to enjoy a healthy clean meal with excellent ingredients

This is hands down the best Mediterranean restaurant in LA. Certainly one of my personal favorite restaurants. The owner is always there talking to the patrons, it is clear he cares a lot about the quality of ingredients.

Turquoise is our favorite restaurant in the South Bay. The food is amazing and the service is excellent. Our favorites are the chicken and lamb kabob, as well as the kale salad. The rice is also incredible! It was my son’s birthday and they brought delicious ice cream for dessert. Five stars all around!

Charming restaurant on the corner of Catalina and Vista Del Mar in the heart of the Riv. They offer Persian inspired food with some of the classics and some fresh takes that are unique and delicious. For instance their baba app is served hot in a cute little skillet... and it was amazing. Both the beef and chicken kabobs were very flavorful and moist. Our server was very nice and knew the menu and flavors well. An oddball standout was their fruit infused green ice tea... honestly on a hot summer day this tea was so good I would come in just for that! The also offer plenty of seafood, lamb, wraps, salads and soup. The interior is very nice with a great vibe and they have 2 patio seating options.. the Catalina side being more shaded and busy traffic with the Vista side being sunny and more peaceful. Great food in a stunning location just a short stroll to the beach.

The skimpiest portions and the highest prices! In addition their service (particularly lady with the dyed blonde hair) is awful! Zankoo chicken is way better than this hole

My cousin recommended Turquoise while we were visiting for a few days. Food was amazing, especially the hummus. If you’re in the Redondo area I highly recommend stopping by for a bite.

The food was quite tasty. We got the chicken kabob, Greek salad and a side of the koubideh kabob (which was less to our liking).
The salad and the chicken dish were delicious!
The service is friendly, and the ambiance is really chill. We came on a Saturday afternoon and it was calm and quiet on the outdoor patio. Very nice setting for a light meal.
Overall I would recommend this spot, but it’s nothing super-special.

Delicious, healthy, creative Iranian food made with love! The owner takes time to say hello to everyone and tell you about his homemade yogurt, and other delicious ingredients.

This is the perfect place for a nice dinner alone or with guests. There are so many great things on the menu to choose from - my favorites are the lentil soup, Greek salad, 3 dips with veggies, koubideh kabob, and the wild salmon entree. Super tasty veggies on the side, also. Healthy food and a great patio. The staff is super friendly. I highly recommend you try it!!
