They have a great selection of wine and the food is freaking amazing. I've tried many of the items on the menu and everything has been good. Some of my favorites are the artichoke dip, prosciutto bon bons, and honestly everything is delicious. The service is also amazing. Mabel usually assists us and she is so kind and attentive. She has great recommendations and has a great and welcoming attitude. She truly makes us feel like long time friends! We will continue to come back here for these reasons.

A New Job, A New Milestone & A Chance to Rewrite the Narrative…read more My best friend and I have a tradition of celebrating new jobs with a nice dinner. Since this was her new job and a major milestone, I let her choose the restaurant. She had visited Bo-Beau last year but didn't get the full experience, so this was her chance to rewrite the narrative. And it was truly night and day. I researched the restaurant beforehand and was excited to see that Bo-Beau is part of the Cohn Restaurant Group, which I mostly associate with San Diego and South Orange County. After this experience, I really hope they're here to stay. I noted on our reservation that we were celebrating her new job, and for once, the restaurant actually read the note and acknowledged it. From the moment we walked in, the hospitality was excellent. The hostess welcomed us downstairs, another staff member greeted us when we reached the rooftop, and our server quickly followed up. Then came the surprise: complimentary champagne for both of us. It was such a thoughtful gesture, especially because those little celebratory touches seem to be increasingly rare. Our server was also patient with our questions and attentive throughout the evening without being intrusive. We spent about 2.5 hours enjoying dinner and catching up over: Baked Brie Brussels Sprouts Steak Frites Everything was flavorful, and the entire experience felt relaxed, peaceful, and worth the price point. The food was great, but the hospitality is what earned the 5 stars for me. Real hospitality is paying attention to the guest, recognizing the occasion, and making people feel genuinely welcomed. My best friend got the celebration she wanted -- and a much better Bo-Beau experience this time around. Will definitely be returning!

Wow! What a gem we found in this Seal Beach French restaurant! I had seen this place many times,…read morebut hadn't paid much attention to it. We were walking by yesterday and stopped to look at the menu and decided we would give it a try. The decor is very much as you would expect in a French bistro. There are blue checked tablecloths and art on the walls, and a long bar along one wall. There is a gourmet market attached, which has wonderful gift items (reasonable priced!!), and, of course French food products and wine (with win be tasting!!). I think one sign was that French was being spoken by many in this restaurant. We were greeted right away, and we're told we could pick out table. Our server came quickly, and was so nice and accommodating. We came in a Monday night, when select tapas, draft beers, and bottles of wine are 50% off. Neither of us was very hungry, so hubby ordered a French beer (so sorry--i can't remember the name) and we ordered a few tapas. We got: *Escargot in garlic parsley butter with warm bread *Soupe A L'oignon Gratinee * Lamb pops in wine reduction served with ratatouille *Beef bourguignon First, let me say that the food was amazing!!!! So delicious! There was so much garlic butter to sop up with our warm bread and escargot---deeeelush! The lamb pops were perfectly cooked and the wine reduction was also perfection. The beef bourguinon was the best I've had, and the tapas size, which is supposed to be a half of the regular size, was so big. There was soooo much beef--no skimping here. I know we will be back many times. We left so full and happy!

What a fantastic experience tonight!!!…read more We came on a pretty busy Saturday night with a last minute reservation. We were sat in front of the raw bar. What a treat!!! The raw bar seats might be best in the house. The raw bar seats are the ambiance you want here, right in the middle of the action. (Notably, not your choice for a business meal) Chef's touch. Its an odd thing to say, but the croquettas with the wagyu flat iron steak were straight from Cuba. Serious food, amazing eats. Best Ive had since Musni. Steak was cooked well, smoke flavor greatly appreciated! Id like a little more crust and a touch of salt, but thats my own slight preference which I can communicate at my next order... honestly 10/10 on steak. Peruvian sea scallops and oysters were perfect. Enough said. Just get the scallops and oysters. Order too much, its worth it. Service: Front of house beat back of house tonight. We were not rushed. We could take our time ordering courses and the pacing was customized. Our server asked and seemed to care. Big tip for front of house tonight. Hopefully we have a staple restaurant. Thank you Trani's!!

Trani's Dockside Station is probably my favorite restaurant in San Pedro and on the east side of…read morePalos Verdes. I always consider a meal here a treat. The atmosphere is a big part of the appeal. It feels like an ode to the San Pedro harbor and the area's history, with cool artifacts and details throughout. They also often have live acoustic music, which I really enjoy. One small downside: it can get loud when busy, so with a larger group it's sometimes hard to talk across the table. Last night they absolutely nailed the food, as usual and the restaurant was not too loud. We started with Harpo's Garlic Bread, the Squash Blossoms, and the Local Calamari "New Style," all excellent starters. For mains, the Tomahawk Pork Chop was juicy and well prepared, the Sausage Cavatelli was hearty and flavorful, the Chicken Parmesan was crispy, cheesy and satisfying, and the Swordfish Milanese was a really nice preparation. The Hand Cut Fries, Baby Romaine Salad, and BLT Salad rounded everything out nicely. One tip: if you know you want wine, consider bringing a good bottle. Corkage is $25 per bottle, which can make a lot of sense. Our server, Noe D., did a very nice job. I was especially impressed with our table assistant, Kevin A., friendly, attentive, and genuinely enjoyable to interact with. I also had the chance to meet Edgar on the management side, who was new to me. Thanks to the Dockside team for another great night. Great food, real San Pedro character, live music, and people who make you feel welcome.

Even with a big group, they handled everything smoothly and were very accommodating with any food modifications. Our friends also loved the atmosphere, music, and overall vibe. It was such a great experience. I definitely recommend this place for a casual dinner or a special occasion!

She made sure we were well taken care of and accommodated our needs from start to finish. If you come here, definitely ask for Hanna--she's an amazing server and made our night 10 times better! The restaurant has a beautiful open-concept layout with a darker, intimate atmosphere that I really enjoyed. The natural light coming through the windows added a nice contrast to the darker tones throughout the space, creating a cozy yet modern vibe. Gekkeikan Sake -- 9/10 We ordered the Gekkeikan sake served cold to enjoy while we waited for our food. It was smooth, flavorful, and a fun way to start the evening. We also ordered it during happy hour, which made it even more affordable. Definitely a great option if you're looking for a refreshing drink to enjoy with your meal. Crispy Chicken -- 10/10 I ordered the five-piece Crispy Chicken, and it arrived hot, fresh, and steaming. The chicken itself was a 10/10--crispy on the outside, tender on the inside, and packed with flavor. What really elevated the dish was the combination of the lettuce wraps and sauce. Wrapping the crispy chicken in the lettuce and adding the sauce created an amazing balance of textures and flavors. I would definitely recommend this as an appetizer. Another bonus: it was available during happy hour, which made it an even better value. I was especially excited to see both the sake and Crispy Chicken on the happy-hour menu, and Hanna was kind enough to point that out when I was ordering. Now, Let's Get Into the Ramen Chicken Yuzu Shio Delight The Chicken Yuzu Shio ramen was really good. The noodles soaked up the flavorful chicken-based broth beautifully, making every bite rich and satisfying. The egg was one of my favorite parts--it had great flavor and was cooked nicely. The chicken also had a delicious grilled flavor that paired really well with the broth and noodles.
