This is my family and my go to place now. We have consistently found things we like and as like many families sometimes it's hard to find a place we all like.They have really nice people working there, I really like the decor and will take pictures next time. It's not super big, just enough for the riviera.We all like their charcuterie board. So that is always ordered. We are usually pretty hungry when we go so we always add an additional order of the toast. Maybe they can add a few more pieces. I think it comes with 5-6. They board is a pretty good size with 3 meats, 3 cheeses, and few more surprises I won't share.Both my daughter and I love their salmon, grilled with a good helping of broccolini and cous cous. Pretty good portion. My husband loved their margarita flatbread, I had a bite and the mozzarella was good! They also have a pretty decent selection of drinks. This time I didn't want a full plated meal so I got a side steak with their chimichuri sauce. Perfect size and cooked. I couldn't finish so I took it home and ate it with my daughter's left over cous cous.I am so glad we have another choice vs their neighbor across the street. It's a great place, prices seem a little steeper, but I think the food is good and they give good portions. Check it out sometimes!

What a delicious find in our area of the Riviera Village. Nice ambience, staff and good energy. Max was an attentive and helpful server. The oysters were fresh and tasty with sauces and mignonette. Tasty selections to share in their very creative menu which had us already to return to explore. Nice selection of wines and craft beers. Finley Pinot was a bit sweet, but the Cabernet was very good. Opting to try their Carving Board with a choice of two proteins ~ we had delicious lamb chops in a harissa yogurt and skirt steak with chimichurri broiled perfectly. Their crispy truffle parm potatoes were a highlight ~ a very creative take on Hasselback with incredibly thin perfectly crispy slices. We subbed veggies to try their house salad with green goddess dressing (a rarity these days). Espresso machine wasn't working so the affogato will have to wait for another time. We were very impressed with the quality and creativity of this new addition to our Redondo Beach area.

Our new office just moved across the street and really enjoyed the food here. Great burgers and flat bread. I also had the wedge salad and ahi Tuna. Quick service for pick up and all the staff were attentive and friendly.

(Review on food only, not beer) Late lunch for my boys but too early for Happy Hour. We ordered the Craftsman Classic burger which was great and the Grilled Cheese. The Garlicky Grilled Cheese had so much great flavor if you are a lover of garlic. We also ordered the pretzels and sausage appetizer which was a meal in itself. Loved that too. Service was attentive and the place is really nice inside. Street metered parking in the Riviera.

My wife and I stopped in for a drink before going to dinner down the street. We found the service to be friendly and the drinks to be cold. They had a nice beer selection on their beer board, lots of good craft choices. It appears to me that they have straightened any 'new opening challenges' mentioned in earlier reviews. The restaurant was full at 7pm and everyone seemed to be enjoying themselves. I look forward to my next visit, next time we will incorporate food. All the plates around us looked delicious.

New place in the village. Don't go right now , give them time to sort out their business because it's currently a bit chaotic. Go in a few months to try it Came by at 11 and their "all day " food offer actually starts only at 12... so ... ok ...as Breakfast goes to 12 it's no lunch menu either so.... I guess it's a breakfast burrito then. Oh, they don't have coffee for breakfast. A bit awkward indeed. Running a restaurant is hard. Not having the fundamentals down in the competitive environment of riviera is harder and makes initial impressions poor. So, how to judge ? The manager was good enough to comp some danishes to apologize for the chaos. Pastries- apparently delivered every other day. Honestly, average. 3 star at best Philly burrito: Quite good. I'd put this as a 4 star. The burritos are quite large and gently pan grilled. The hot sauce on the side is very tasty , spicy but not overwhelmingly soI wish I could have tried lunch but my desire to sit around for an hour was seriously lacking. It has promise. I'll try again and , hopefully, they'll have their (stuff) together. As of now, the jury is still out----- Fascinating response: If I may be so bold as to suggest what a more effective response to the review should have been:Paul, we are so sorry that your experience here wasn't up to your standards. Truth be told, it's the same for us. As you pointed out, starting a new restaurant is hard. And we are still in that early stage where we're learning and experimenting to best meet the needs of the Rivera dining community. We love that you were quite enamored with the actual food and that you're willing to try us again. We'd love to have you and, next time, you can expect exemplary service. And I still think your premise has promise and is worthy of folks trying....and, despite your derogatory comments towards me personally, I will come back and try it again. I want you to succeed and flourish , as small businesses need to be supported. By the way, isn't a male "Karen" called a "Chad"? As for a power play, alas it's more that my memory is bad so I write reviews in real time. My social media clout is non existent. Hopefully my comments have helped ... if not... feel free to ignore.

Love coming here. The atmosphere is so relaxing, the food is amazing. I love the burger and the filet mignon and hummus. The service is great, we felt taken care of, but not bothered. I've been here with my wife and friends a few times, and everyone loves it.
