One of my favorite go-to spots for donuts in LA! I particularly enjoy their cake donuts which…read moreconsistently have good flavor and textures. I got my free birthday donut here (sign-up and add your birthday in the app) and I got the Celebration Cake donut. The donut was sweet with a crispy glazed exterior and a soft and fluffy interior. It was also still slightly warm which I liked since it gave me the impression that this was freshly made. It did get a bit too sweet for me towards finishing the donut, so eating half at a time is honestly good enough. This is more of a grab-n-go type of spot, but I think they have some outdoor seating in front of the store. There's also parking which Sidecar can validate. I would highly recommend this chain and it's one of my spots I take visitors to. Also, if you download the app you can get a free drink and donut for your first time :)

Sidecar is supposed to be very special donuts and they do have a unique selection of donuts, but…read moreit not for me. I found their donuts to be stale and no fancy type is going to correct that. The place is super cute and very clean. The staff is fine, nothing to write home about. They really don't see too interested in the customers. But they are okay. Parking is pretty easy. What they do make well is coffee. I love dark black coffee and they have that and more and it is very good. Their prices are high-- I think too high. They do have a decent selection on hand. I would go there for coffee, but I won't bother with their donuts anymore. I really hope they work on making sure all donuts are fresh. Their cornbread is good. I have a friend who wanted to try them so we went back and I still found them stale tasting, but great coffee.

Sidecar made amends for the…read moreunfortunate experience we had. 1 Star for easy parking 2 stars for excellent customer service from corporate The missing 2 stars are due to The donuts we got that evening were overly dense and stale. Also, the staff neglience needs to be recognized. Overall, I look forward to returning to this location to give them a second chance, THANKS to Sidecar Corporate!

I always look forward to Sidecar new seasonal flavor drops. If you haven't signed up for their app,…read moreplease do so there's a lot of really good promotions and you're notified of the different community events and new flavors as they release. This location is directly across from the Grove specifically the farmers market area. This is one of the smaller Sidecar locations that I've been to with not as much seating, which isn't a problem if you want to grab a treat before you walk around the Grove. They do validate for parking if you park in their shared lot with Trader Joe's.

We recently moved to the area and were excited to have this as our local Sidecar since we've always…read morehad great experiences at other locations. Unfortunately, this visit was disappointing. When we walked in, the shop was completely empty, and there wasn't an employee in sight for about 30 seconds until someone eventually came out from the back. The store itself looked dirty and disorganized, and the donuts didn't appear as fresh as what we've come to expect from Sidecar. The staff also seemed uninterested, which didn't make for a very welcoming experience. We're hoping this was just an off day because we've always enjoyed the brand, but based on this visit, we're hesitant to come back.

Sidecar is located in a busy shopping center, right across from the entrance to Trader Joes, so you…read morecan imagine what parking is like. They have two main types of donuts -- super dense and cakey, or lighter and airy. Most are the cakey variety, so if you are into lighter Krispy Kreme type donuts, there won't be many options for you. They have some interesting flavors to choose from. I have tried both the thick, crumbly ones and the lighter variety. Both are high quality, but their cake donuts are just way too dense and chewy for my liking. I did enjoy their light vanilla glazed traditional style donut, but at more than $1/bite, it's not worth it in my opinion. They do have good, made-to-order coffee; iced oat milk latte with a touch of vanilla is my go-to. Props to the staff for keeping the line moving, offering suggestions, and making good drinks. I'm giving 5 stars because there's nothing bad to report, I'm just more of a Krispy Kreme or rundown mom & pop donut shop kinda guy.

IMO Sidecar has the best fancy doughnuts in the South Bay. If you can't decide what to try, here…read moreare my recommendations. Huckelberry is a bit tangy and fruity. If you like blueberry donuts, get this one. Butter & Salt is the perfect sweet+salty donut with a brown butter glaze. Maple Bacon is one of the few raised yeast donuts and the sweet+savory combo is the best! The Apple Fritter is really good, but only available on Fridays. I highly recommend trying at least one of their seasonal donuts too. They are very unique and delicious. What I recently discovered is that their coffee is quite good and reasonably priced for the Manhattan Beach area. If you still can't decide what to purchase, the staff is always very nice and helpful. They always seem to be in a really good mood. The donuts are presented in nice, branded boxes if you purchase 3 or more. The store is located in the Manhattan Village, right near the entrance, so there is plenty of parking. Definitely check it out!

I LOVE SIDECAR!! Its absolutely one of the best donut places ever! Its my go-to sweet treat…read morewhenever there is a deal (download the app for coupons occassionally). The flavors are great and really unique which i like. They have a seasonal weekly flavor and the service is always nice. It has plenty of parking and there's seating on the inside. I also really like how there are samples if you go in the morning which has persuaded me to try some new flavors I wouldn't have gotten. Yes its a bit pricey, but definitely worth it as the taste is amazing. My only feedback is on Too Good to Go orders. PLEASE allow there to be a separate non-meat/vegetarian option. Since if you order through the app, sometimes they may have a maple bacon donut which I don't eat meat so anything that donut is touching I also throw out which is a waste.

From the moment I…read morewalked in, we saw the extensive bar which led us to a dark hallway and into a beautiful garden area. The service was exceptional; our server was attentive without being intrusive and made excellent recommendations that perfectly suited our tastes. The food was delightfully unique. Persian food influences, with a fusion twist, there is a little of everything for everyone. Every dish was beautifully presented and bursting with flavor. I highly recommend the truffle wagyu burger, which was a standout; perfectly prepared and absolutely delicious. We addes the duck confit fries to our order which made our meal even more decadent. The other top notch meal was the braised lamb which was the house special. Large portion and complex with delicious flavors. The fried chicken waffles are stacked tall and is a tower of crispiness. The kale and cesear salads have fresh ingredient and perfectly dressed. I also appreciated the attention to detail in accommodating dietary preferences, ensuring everyone in our group had an amazing experience. I can't wait to return and try more of their menu! Highly recommend this gem to anyone looking for a unique dining experience.

The food is good with a solid variety, even if nothing has really blown me away yet. My only real complaint is the valet.

Overall, it's a fun place with a welcoming vibe, great service, and somewhere I'd happily recommend if you're looking for a laid-back afternoon or evening.

If you're disappointed that this would be the only screen visible from your table, or that they didn't think of adding panel to right of screen to block the light washing out the screen, then you'd probably have a similarly disappointing experience. I'd argue it was the same for some people going inside to stand and watch. We left on the first water break to go back home and watch the game. I just wanted to actually see the ball and the players. Mind you we saw the Mexico v England game here, but it was inside, next to some wonderful Mexico fans. Screen clearly visible. Service always fantastic. All that's good. This patio experience was the polar opposite for not actually having a visible screen.

Matty the bartender is an absolute delight. His welcoming and charming personality delights all the guests. Matty even won over a sulky teenager in our party with his humor and a killer mocktail. Love that this place is so welcoming to dogs. When it is not too hot outside, delightful to sit by the creek. You can hunt for the few free street parking spaces, or pay $7+tip for valet, or self-park behind the restaurant for $7. I do wish the menu on the website was kept up to date. Three weekends in a row we went and menu was different each time, would be nice to see current menu on website before coming in.

Such a unique combination of flavors and absolutely delicious! I love the entire menu here, and I especially love that there's a café in the front where you can grab some quick things to go. My latte was one of the best coffees I've had in such a long time -- the gentleman who made it roasts the beans himself, and you can really taste the care that goes into it. Thank you! Pedalers Fork also has a collaboration with Canyon, the only U.S. retail location for the bike brand. It's such a cool and unique addition that makes this place stand out even more. The menu is amazing, and I can't wait to come back for Pedalers Taqueria. From what I've seen, the menu looks fantastic. I've heard the tacos are a definite go-to, and they're on my list for next time. This is such a great neighborhood spot...you can stop in, get delicious food, and keep exploring.
