New American Restaurants near South Gate, CA

“I came here after having ordered online, something was up with the website so I had to wait. Eventually, the person I was with went to in to talk the manager and I never got to apologize, so I'm writing here. You're all doing great and I understand a backup in orders. Just wanted to put this out here, along with adding how professional and kind they all were!“

“love the Quality of Food😍😍😍“

“I really want to give it five stars and I may come again in the future. The food is great, to be honest, the pork shoulder and mushroom rice is enough.“

“The tasting menu is full of unique seafood dishes, and the portions are generous.“

“The food was delicious and a great place to dine. Next time bring some friends and enjoy the food“

“Had a lovely dinner and our server Jade was excellent! The shrimp cocktail was delicious and the hot fried catfish and fried hen sublime! A wonderful experience!“

“Wish I could give more than 5 stars for this place! Our server, Tu was amazing and very patient in helping us make a decision on drinks, apps and the main course. Drinks were very well made and the atmosphere is vibrant! Definitely making this a regular stop.“

“Always satisfied with the freshest ingredients ‼️❤️“

“Excellent service. Great beer. Great food. I Love the ambiance.“

“Great Food and Parings. Service was great. wonderful ambiance & spectacular views!!“

“Dined here this evening. We enjoyed some Cocktails to start then ordered Beef Tartare, Shrimp with Veg and Roasted Carrots. Entrees varied from Pasta to Ribeye steak and Burger. All delicious. The Carbonara needed more bacon but that was the only issue. Desserts were great. The Espresso wasn’t hot enough for my guest but overall we enjoyed the evening celebrating a birthday. Will recommend to my friends for sure. Would recommend a reservation as it was very busy by the time we left at 6.30 pm“

“Fast friendly professional service and hot delicious food! I’ll definitely return 🥰“

“Outstanding food and great staff! I wish I lived in Torrance 😂😂😂⚡️❤️“

“Love a place where locals hang out ! Lots of options and everything sounded equally nice ! Our server was very professional and helpful and the dishes we go were well cooked and huge so we couldn't finish it all. A great starter is the firecracker shrimps - suggested by the young man who served us! Another great thing about the place is that it closes later than other places in the area so you can stay for drinks if you like.“

“The Great White Breakie was delicious, I loved the combination of goat cheese and sourdough. The folded eggs were also really good, especially with the bacon slices. Overall the flavors were really well balanced on this plate, and I enjoyed how you could mix & match the different ingredients to your taste. The Caesar Salad was very good, would recommend adding grilled chicken on the side. We also liked the coffee here, especially the Shaken Iced Latte!

Great food and great service too. The atmosphere is also very relaxed, perfect for brunch but I could also see this being a nice dinner place too.“

“good place and highly recommend.“

“Stopped in for lunch today after seeing a post on Instagram. It’s nice, clean and right on the corner in the shopping center. It looked like the parking lot was packed but there was plenty of parking upon further review. The waitress was so nice and sweet. (I hate that I didn’t ask her name) I got the Loco Moco and the Beignets. Both were REALLY GOOD. She actually didn’t charge me for the dessert because it didn’t come out the way they liked……. It was GOOD to me!! I am not a fan of creamy, mayonnaise, ranch, béchamel, hollandaise, type of sauce so I chose the safe route this time. It was delicious. Very filling and full of flavor. I will be back again and I did invite my friends already. Thanks Chef! Congratulations!!“

“Everything great“

“Incredible. Elegant. Delicious. Wonderful atmosphere.“

“Wow! This is a hidden gem! Had a few hours until our flight out of Long Beach. Found this amazing spot for a coffee and was absolutely blown away by the owner(Shannon) and the menu! We ordered 2 coffees a sandwich and a cinnamon roll. The coffees were amazing, the owner made me a custom coffee. I asked for 'Something Sweet' and the drink was so good we ordered a 2nd one. Cinnamon roll was hot, sweet, and cream cheese frosted. Licked the bowl clean! Breakfast Sandwich was made with fresh ingredients and was so tasty! We will plan our future trips to this Airport just to have this coffee and cinnamon roll again! 10/10! Oh and the reggae music jamming is the vibe!!“

“Great service. Decor was chic. Service on point, not rushed. Great place for a date.“

“After our Altadena house burned down, we relocated to Barker Block and absolutely love being so close to Manuela. We used to have a fire table like yours, so dining here always carries a sense of home. Last night we brought friends, and they said, ‘This makes it hard to go out to eat in Monrovia—our restaurants cut corners with cheap ingredients and fast turnover.’ What your chefs create is the opposite: dishes with not just incredible flavor but extraordinary texture and detail. Their expertise is off the charts, and I highly recommend.“

“Relax atmosphere, awesome service and good food!“

“👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍😃👍“

“Excellent Filipino fusion food.“

“My favorite place to hang in LA. The staff is super sweet, the food is fantastic, the drinks are amazing, particularly the Ginger Margarita, the atmosphere is gorgeous—whether you’re inside the stunning deco bar or outside on the beautiful patio. It’s a true gem.“

“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.“

“Magnífico lugar para comer!! Excelente servicio Jessica, Jessenia y todos los que trabajan son grandiosos.“

“Had breakfast at Tenampal and loved it! The Anthony Special is a must-try — half chilaquiles in mole and half in green sauce with eggs on top. So good! The café de olla was delicious too. The staff here are super friendly and make you feel really welcome. Definitely coming back!“

“This is my second time here and always met with amazing customer service. Bartender Jesus, and servers Maegan and Nicole are amazing, friendly, and accommodating. I enjoy that it is a team approach to make the customer experience pleasant. Hostess was friendly as well. The food is amazing, especially the fried chicken and shrimp tacos, have a lot of flavor. Due to great staff, ambience, and view, would highly recommend. Thank you all for always making my experience lovely.“

“Brunch here is always a treat. I had the egg benedict, which was perfectly cooked, and their potato wedges are a must-try. The atmosphere is casual but lively, and the staff is friendly and welcoming. The place tends to get busy on weekends, but it’s worth the wait.“

“Harbor House in downtown LA is a charming, retro-style diner known for its 24/7 service. The extensive menu offers classic American comfort food, from hearty breakfasts to late-night burgers. The atmosphere is laid-back, with a nostalgic vibe. Service is generally friendly, though it can be slow during peak hours. Great for casual dining or a quick bite.“

“Great food and a great bartender“

“I ordered to go yesterday and was super impressed. I got steak, the pesto chicken sandwich and the Hollywood salad bowl. The food was very good even after sitting in the to go containers for a while. The service was even better than the food. The front counter girl walked me over to the pick up area and then the manager helped me with a question about an issue with the online rewards (something wasn’t working in applying a reward for a free bowl so he honored it and made it for me on the spot). It’s so been so long since I’ve had food and service this good! I’ll definitely be back to eat in for dinner. I want to try the eat-in in space as it looked quite nice with a full bar. The parking in the garage is easy and free for two hours without validation. Kudos to this spot for excellent management and staff!

Parking: Parking is easy in an underground garage (under Trader Joe’s). It’s free for two hours while shopping.“

“Nice location for an large event. www.Instagram.com/MG4Synergy/“

“Had a great time friendly place“

“Nice hangout place if u use karaoke- great food too!“

“Great ambiance and good food!!“

“Very good service and the food was delicious“

“The best shrimp n grits I've ever had.“

“If you're a fan of flavorful, authentic biryani and crave a dining experience that perfectly blends tradition with modern flair,must-visit.“

“Most unusual brunch with chef driven latkes deep fried to look like rye bread. Pickled lox was purple along with crème fresh and capers. Very filling. . . Only thing was the outside chairs were metal and needed cushions. Find used hotel chairs. Otherwise it was great. Bravo“

“Working so hard to stay open during these pandemic times. We owe them and their faithful help a lot!“

“I really enjoyed my time at the District restaurant! We arrived during lunch hour, and were seated immediately. The lunch selection menu is not as vast as other meals, however the food was quite delicious and brought out quite quickly! The presentation of the food and restaurant were amazing. I highly recommend this place to all, and I look forward to returning here in the future!“

“Great food Great place Definitely will return“

“THE best breakfast burrito I've ever had, or ever will. You cannot top this.

You know when you're eating food at one of those special places and you stop and ask yourself.. it this really THIS good?? It's the best, bar none, and it's not even close.

Get the Würst - sunny side up is a MUST. The burrito is filled to the brim with gooey runny egg and the way everything goes together is *chef's kiss*.
I also highly recommend swapping to Kielbasa. Almost no places in the greater LA area even have Kielbasa, so having that alongside all this food is amazing.

The other options are no slouch either - the fries are great (although the tots I'd say are mid), the burgers with eggs are awesome and have the delicious hawaiian bread (Ringer + fried egg = so good).

I really liked the Reservoir Hog too - you can't go wrong with Kielbasa.

They also have outdoor seating, which is nice.“
