THE 2ond VEGAN Restaurant on my list The Spot has been in Hermosa Beach as long as I can remember 30 + years. It is a local favorite for vegetarians and non Vegans because its so deliciously done! Known for their savory sauces and large portions this is definitely a place you should try. Its about 3 miles from the house across the street from the beach.

Vegan restaurant. The Green Temple in Redondo Beach is the restaurant equivalent of your friend who's a vegetarian for ethical, not dietary, reasons. The locally-sourced and organic menu is kind of Mexican, kind of Mediterranean -- there are tacos, enchiladas, hummus wraps, and pita sandwiches, but it's mostly just an avocado-centric hippie restaurant in a yogi tea house. It's a solid spot for lunch if you're craving something light.

This family-run Italian spot in Redondo Beach is a quintessential date spot. Michelin-starred chef Fabio Ugoletti is behind the menu of handmade pasta, far-from-basic greens, and meat and fish entrees. Rustic wooden tables and an open kitchen add to the modern and minimalist vibe.

“Always fabulous”, this long-running Redondo Beach Eclectic delivers a “creative”, “outside-of-the-box” menu served with “diverse” wines and craft cocktails at moderate rates; with “cheerful” servers and a “pleasant” ambiance, most agree it has earned its place as a “reliable” “neighborhood” “favorite.”

For “special” nights, “you can't go wrong” with this pair of “hideaways” near the ocean in Hermosa Beach and Redondo Beach, an “old-fashioned” “favorite” known for its “friendly” service and “lovely” classic-Italian cuisine; coupled with choices from the “superb” wine list, it may not be the cheapest meal, but its “cozy” ambiance works wonders – especially if you dine in the “romantic” wine cellar.

If you are looking for a solid, old school steak place with dark wood and a long bar to belly up to, this family owned and operated place should be on your list. They make you feel like a local, regardless of how many times you have been there. Food is quality and consistent and portions are large.
This is not the spot for a trendy, on-the-scene, dinner. This is where you go with your family to enjoy good food, service, large portions and healthy pours. Its been here in this location forever:) old school old fashion family owned!
