Great place for a good meal and good beer. Always something local on draft and elevated comfort food..wife and I go in for a drink during the torrance antique fair and the bartender is awsome.....everything is great...try the scramble.

Hey this our first time here, not bad.... liked the ambience of the place. A sports bar merged with fine dining. Large booths with combo of tables for 4. A bar tucked in on the side good sitting area. Recommende to RSVP or wait 30mins to be seated during dinner slot. Food was great, had the Chipotle burger and double patty melt on rye. For starters we had calamari and not your regular find, beefed up in size thick as your finger. Overall I enjoyed my meal only gripe was the sweet potatoe fries were served cold not freshly fried. Give it a try when you are in old town Torrance.

Disappointed. My wife and I were looking forward to a good meal after reading reviews and recommendations. The wait staff was adequate and up to the task, prices reasonable but the food not so much. I ordered the fish and chips. I am used to a crispier batter and tender cod. I received soggy thick battered pieces of what, I'm not sure. It was tough and chewy. The fries were ok and the slaw was quite good. Unfortunately the fish is the star, but not tonight. My wife's chicken parmesan was average.Overall, not worth a second trip.

Everything is great, food, service, decor. BUT, it is VERY noisy. It's festive, but difficult to hear others in your party.

I was looking for a place with a good organic salad for delivery and The Local Kitchen popped up. Wow! My honey and I were amazingly surprised on the flavor of the food and quality of ingredients. We ordered the Erika's strawberry blue salad, lemon herbed chicken and the grilled prime flat iron steak. The meat was cooked perfectly. We loved the mashed potatoes and wonderful asparagus. The salad was crisp and colorful. We're looking forward to visiting the tavern in the near future. The Local Kitchen has been added to our favorites' list!

At first, we felt we weren't being taken care of, but once someone asked if we've been helped, all went well. The vibe is amazing, we loved the decor and most importantly the food and drinks are delicious! Definitely became one of our top spots immediately!

The food was extremely disappointing to say the least. Tater tots were so dry that it was like eating sand. The Brussel sprouts were soggy and overdone. The BLT was also very dry. That said, the service was great and I had a good Pimms cup drink. The server exchanged the food out for alternatives, but they weren’t the best either. The service saved the review from being 1-Star. I would come back for a drink but not food.
American-style gastropub in Old Town Torrance. Nice decor, comfortable seating, very good service. The establishment serves a wide variety of foods and beverages. The food is very high quality, and the prices are reasonable. I had the lemon grilled chicken that came with mashed potatoes and an arugula salad. The meat was tender and expertly cooked. The lemon/butter sauce was delicate but at the same time savory. My wife had the Tuscan Sea Bass, which also came with mashed potatoes (which she substituted for brown rice) and an arugula salad. It was also delicate and savory. We had a side of fries because our friends suggested we should try them. And they didn't disappoint: crispy on the outside, soft on the inside, and served at the perfect temperature. Highly recommended.

This place was really good. Very chill, I could see hanging here a bit if I lived in the area. Satori BLT was really good.

Absolutely delicious food. Had the wings and they were tender, meaty and extremely flavorful, not just the sauce but the meat too. Fried calamari as well. Tacos were gigantic! Can't wait to come back! The service was superb!

Wow...this place was fabulous top to bottom. The servers were great and helpful. The food was great. The ambience was terrific. The only flaw was it was a little dark for a lunchtime crowd.
