    Bettolino Kitchen nails the balance between upscale-casual dining and being family-friendly. The Highlights: The Food: The complimentary bread is delish, the handmade pastas are always on point, and some of my favorite dishes are the tuna crudo and the eggplant Parmesan. The Vibe and Service: They have a really nice covered outdoor patio and friendly/attentive service. Kid-Approved: They have an impressive kids' menu. My son loves the Bambini Box and looks forward to the Photo Booth. Always a great meal at BK.

    Food: my mom and I initially came here for the Betto Box, and honestly that's what I would recommend to first-time visitors. What I loved most was the variety it came with. Instead of committing to a single thing, you get to sample several different items, making it a great way to experience what Bettolino does well in one meal. (Of course their handmade pastas are amazing, and their soft bread is always served wam hehe) Everything felt fresh, well-prepared, and thoughtfully portioned. It's the kind of lunch that leaves you satisfied without being heavy. Price: Most of the handmade pastas range about $25-33, starters are generally $9-25, and entrées can reach into the $30-40 range depending on the dish. Lunch specials and combination options help keep costs a bit lower during the day. Overall, expect roughly $20-50 per person and more if you're adding appetizers, drinks, or desserts. Given the quality of the ingredients and house-made focus, the pricing feels fair. Ambiance: The restaurant has a warm, modern California-Italian atmosphere that's comfortable without being too formal/fancy. It works just as well for a casual lunch, date night, or dinner with friends. The space feels polished but approachable, which fits the South Bay vibe nicely. Service: Service was super friendly, attentive, and professional. Food came out at a steady pace, and staff did a good job making sure everything was taken care. Overall, a smooth dining experience. Parking: Parking is relatively easy, there's a private lot available, which takes away a lot of the stress that often comes with dining out in busy areas.

    We ordered the Pistachio crusted Halibut and the Braised Short Ribs which both came with mascarpone mashed potatoes! The food was delicious; the fish was cooked to perfection as well as the short rib and mashed potatoes are pretty much delicious most anywhere you go. The service this visit was a bit slow even though they stated to us before we sat down that we'd have a 2 hour limit to our reservation. Granted it was quite a busy day as well. The ambiance is nice pretty lowkey but I find when it's more crowded it can get a little loud. I don't mind it much though. Parking is pretty easy to find in the village but you might not always get front row!

    This incredible place has earned every. Single. One. Of its 5 stars. From the comfortable decor, to the fantastic service, to the stunningly tasty dishes that all combine to make it worth the flight to be here. Start off with the focaccia bread. It is everything your mouth doesn't know it needs in this life. Seriously. These are pillows of heaven brushed with just the right amount of salt and rosemary. Though I asked for herb oil and balsamic, truly, it didn't need it at all. Enjoy it hot and soft, but resist eating it all, because you're going to want to save room for your meal (and the sauces!) Enjoyed the California Casarece. Talk about a masterpiece! If food is art, then the chef here is Michelangelo! Y'all- the pairing of spicy cilantro pesto with the fresh pasta and grilled onions and red peppers is something I'll be thinking about the entire flight home. The perfectly grilled chicken was cut to the same size/shape as the casarece making for a perfect mouthfeel. You can tell that there was care and thought in the creation of this dish. My deepest compliments to the chef! I hope you saved some of that focaccia- dipping those little pillows of heaven into the remaining sauce will keep you from licking the dish because you're going to want to, believe me! My server, Danya. Truly she made it feel like we could be friends if I lived in town! So knowledgeable about the menu, the history of the restaurant. Balancing professionalism and hospitality with grace. (And a thank you, Danya, for the sweet treat at the end- wish I had had more room to enjoy it!) Eat here. If you're local, eat here OFTEN. And save me a seat for the next time I'm in town b/c I'll be back here every time for sure!

    This was any first time trying Bettolino Kitchen and we were very impressed! Services was great! Cici took care of us and answered all of our questions! We had the calamari, linguini and clams, lasagna, and the halibut! Everything tasted so great and fresh! We were all very happy with our meals and will be coming back especially when we're craving pasta! They have a cute photo booth at the front which is also a plus for me! They have a cute private room for any future events. Overall, I recommend!

    Really yummy food, beautiful ambiance and great service. We came here for a brunch and it wasn't crowded at all. Really easy parking out front too which is nice. They give you bread and olive oil after being seated and it was warm and super delicious. I ordered the Farrata salad without the burrata (I'm lactose intolerant and can't have cheese.) I got it with shrimp added. It was super delicious! The perfect salad... healthy ingredients yet it's also warm and comforting from the farro and quinoa. The flavors are great. I would definitely get this again! The shrimp was good but pretty plain, so I'd be curious to try it with another protein or just getting it without any would be fine too. I also got a cappuccino with almond milk which was good too, and it was topped with a cute B for the restaurant but it was also perfect for me because of my name :) Great meal here! Clean restaurant and really nicely decorated. We were in the outdoor patio which felt very Grecian with its decor.

    Bettolino Kitchen is one of those spots you almost want to keep to yourself--definitely feels like a true hidden secret in Redondo Beach. The modern rustic ambiance strikes that perfect balance between cozy and elevated, making it just as good for a casual night out as it is for something a bit more special. What really stands out is the staff. Everyone was friendly, attentive, and impressively quick without making the experience feel rushed. It's clear they take pride in what they do. As for the food, everything we tried delivered. The Gemelli was rich, creamy, and hearty--exactly the kind of comforting dish you want to keep coming back for. And the branzino? Cooked to perfection with a delicate texture and great flavor. Calamari came out lightly battered and crispy (no grease overload), and the Caesar salad was fresh and well-balanced. All around, a solid experience that makes you understand why locals keep coming back. Bettolino Kitchen nails the combination of great atmosphere, excellent service, and solid, satisfying food. Definitely worth a visit if you're in the area.

    I originally planned to visit for their Monday date night special but ended up stopping by on a Friday instead. The experience was enjoyable overall, despite a slow start. While the host was too busy to greet us, the busgirl was quick to notice and got us to a table, and our waiter was very friendly throughout the night. The Pear Necessities cocktail and Calamari were a perfect start. The Brasato was the highlight--everything on the plate worked perfectly. The Branzino was fresh but unfortunately lacked flavor and needed a sauce. We finished with the Budino Di Pane and gelato, which were both perfectly balanced.

    We made reservations for our family a few weeks ago to celebrate a birthday. When we arrived, there was a complimentary Photo Booth at the entrance. It was fun to take photos and have them sent to our emails. During Happy Hour, drinks and appetizers were $3 off. We enjoyed the calamari and the cocktails. Our table ordered a variety of entrees and beverages. Everyone seemed to enjoy their meals. Only downer was when we brought a small cake and asked our waiter to hold it for us. He said it would be a $20 cake fee. He did not cut the cake and only provided plates at the end of the meal. Guess I should have asked ahead of time if there was a cake fee. Some restaurants offer a dessert to the person celebrating their birthday, but none was offered. The restaurant was busy by the time we left before 6:30. Glad we got to try them. Rounding up to 4 stars.

    Excellent Italian restaurant with top notch service, nice ambiance, and yummy food. Two friends recommended this restaurant and I finally had a chance to try it out. Located in a strip mall with it's own private free parking next to Vons. It has plenty of indoor seating as well as a covered patio that also has heaters for the winter. There's also a private room available for a party. The complimentary photo booth near the entrance is a great idea. The staff is super welcoming and friendly. Our waiter, Richard, is the best. He's very courteous and friendly. The menu has lots of yummy options. They can also make it gluten free. They start off with complimentary bread and olive oil, which is good. The Brasato short ribs is a must! It was so tender and juicy. The meat just fell off the bone. The Rigatoni al pesto is an excellent choice. Perfectly cooked with lots of flavor. For dessert, the lemon cake is delicious and the Budino de pane is even better... Strongly recommend.

    Definitely one of my favorite restaurants in the South Bay! Handmade and fresh pasta?! How can you beat that. I keep going back and I honestly eventually want to try each pasta dish. The GNOCCHI CON TARTUFO is by far one of my favorites. The truffle isn't too overpowering and everything is light. The pasta cake is so unique!!!! Would definitely recommend because the texture was so soft and fluffy but chewy at the same time. It wasn't too sweet and honestly the perfect size for two people to share after both eating pasta lol. Service is amazing, staff are always so friendly. They also give fresh bread out and make sure you're doing great. Ambiance is nice, dog friendly outdoor area. There are those space heaters as well. There is a big parking lot that gets busy and street parking. I would recommend making a reservation unless if you're okay waiting a little for a table. You can walk up and eat at the bar too.

    We had such a wonderful meal the first visit, Jane selected Bettolino Kitchen for her birthday dinner. Turned out to be a great call. Our hostess set us up in a spacious both, complete with a Happy Birthday sign on the table. We were served by Monty who was superb. Started with a bottle of Cuvée which was reasonably priced. After working on a first glass, Monty took our appetizer order. Forget the name of the dish, but they were delicious crab puffs. Next up, we tried their salad with arugula and other nice ingredients. Again, delicious. Both of our entrees were outstanding. The pacing of the meal was leisurely which allowed us to savor the food and enjoy the evening. Because it was Jane's birthday, she was treated to a dessert. I tried their after dinner drink that was coffee and vodka with other ingredients blended in. Perfect! Not only will we be back, we're bringing friends the next time. Cheers!

    My family and I visited Bettolino Kitchen for a joint birthday dinner for myself and my dad. I chose the restaurant because of all the positive Yelp reviews, particularly for a great place to celebrate a birthday. We made a reservation in advance and mentioned that we were celebrating two birthdays. Our server was friendly and wished me a happy birthday when she checked my ID. I shared that it was also my dad's birthday and that we were out to dinner to celebrate. We started off with delicious complimentary bread with olive oil and herbs. For appetizers, we ordered the gnocchi fritti which I really enjoyed. Loved the texture of the gnocchi with a hint of cheesiness. The brussels and balsamic appetizer was just okay--needed a bit more flavor or something to make it stand out. I got their version of a Moscow Mule (Mule 310), which was light. The pear puree flavor didn't really come out through, but the drink was refreshing. For my main, I got the pistachio-crusted halibut. I really enjoyed the flavor of the fish with the pistachio coating and mashed potato base. It was a really solid dish. I also got the gemelli rafano, their short rib pasta. This dish would have been an absolute hit, but the pasta was way too al dente to the point of being undercooked. I ended up taking it home and heating it up to cook it through a bit more. One of my family members got the salmon and everyone agreed that that was probably the best dish. For dessert, we ordered their flourless chocolate cake to share. It was just okay honestly. The vanilla ice cream was heavy on the vanilla extract so left me with an artificial taste. The thing that really disappointed me was that they didn't do anything special for our two birthdays. I understand that not every restaurant does complimentary desserts which is fine, but not even a candle so that we could sing happy birthday. Kind of disappointing to spend around $400 on a restaurant and leave feeling like you didn't even celebrate your special occasion.

    Slightly small but typical Bevmo alcohol selection, obvious for the store's small size. If they…read morehave a sale on drinks it's so worth it. I remember grabbing a giant bottle of Bacardi for like $12 a few months ago, I still haven't finished it. Workers here are fun to chat with, real friendly. We talked about the spicy Arizona's (they were not spicy). Lots of parking too.

    Man, what's a guy gotta do around here to get a damn beer??…read more I was on the hunt for a particular kind of beer, and I called in advance to see if this Bevmo location had what I was looking for. The lady pictured here was the employee who answered my call - sadly, she clearly wasn't interested in checking the store's inventory to see if that beer was in stock (though at first, she said that she'd check). This lady didn't even have the decency to put the call on hold while she blatantly talked with her coworker about all manner of nonsense while I waited (and waited, and waited) for her to get back to me on that beer. Eventually, the employee just hung up on me - again, never bothering to even take the time to put the call on hold. Lo and behold, I show up at the store anyway - and after maybe a minute or two of searching, I end up finding the exact beer I'm looking for! Goes to show ya - if you want something done right, you just gotta do it yourself, I guess. Obviously frustrated from all this, I call back the following day to escalate my concerns regarding the poor customer service. I spoke to Eric (the store manager), and he wasn't interested in addressing my feedback at all. Too bad, so sad. In any event - I'm still loyal to Bevmo as a brand. I'm just hopeful that this whole series of events can serve as a learning experience for the staff at this particular store. Definite room for improvement!
