Walked in on a Friday afternoon close to noon and it was pretty full with what appeared to be a lot of locals watching the masters and just chilling. Comfortable (but clean) dive bar with a tiny kitchen/grill in the front window. We didn't try any food, but people seemed happy with their orders. I'd like to think we'd be a regular here if we lived in the area. read more

If you're tired of the "too-polished" spots in MB and just want an authentic, old-school vibe, Ercole's is the place. It's a classic dive bar that hasn't changed in decades, and that's exactly why we love it. The Highlights: * The Burger: Hands down, one of the best burgers in the South Bay. It's juicy, perfectly charred, and simple in the best way possible. * The Vibe: Dark, gritty (in a good way), with pool tables and a local crowd. It's where you go to actually relax. * Pro Tip: It's CASH ONLY, so hit the ATM before you get here. Great drinks, friendly bartenders who know their craft, and a burger that lives up to the hype. 5 stars for keeping it real! read more

Voted one of Top Dive Bars in LA- had to try it The cheeseburger was $13 - the burger was really delicious! The beef patty was large, the bun was soft - really tasty. Draft beer was $6. Bag of chips - $2. Service / order your burger at the bar and burger was served in about 15 minutes. read more

Quick recap: - Food: Tasty - Portion size: Average - Service: Average - Environment: Dive bar, with an outdoor window for take-out orders - $: Average - Perks: N/A Overall? Good, recommend. More details: Although I am not the biggest fan of dive bars, giving it 4 stars for the unbeatable price/quality ratio. The burgers are delicious. We had the cheeseburgers ($12), which were very tasty - the meat is especially good. The tacos are less "special" taste wise, but pretty large, making them worth a try too. read more

Best burger in South Bay and likely all of Los Angeles. Everyone's got their own taste but let me explain why I was immediately hooked. You walk in and have to get a lay of the land. It's not immediately clear that this place is bar service only. No servers walking around is your first hint. We sat at the bar and soaked in the atmosphere. This place has been around for nearly 100 years and it shows in all the best ways. The bar area and the lively room show off decades of history and love from all the patrons. The worn wood cabinets holding a well stocked bar show just how well used this place has been -- BUT it's also incredibly clean. I'd say this was the cleanest dive bar I've ever been to. Vinny took our order. He was zipping around the bar running that place like it was the Navy. Excellent service. He's half the reason we'll be back. The other half.. you guessed it. The burger is charbroiled in-house with fresh meat from right next door. I can only imagine that's what makes these burgers sing. Nothing is an afterthought. Crisp fresh lettuce, a nice thick slice of tomato, and classic condiments served on a paper tray with the thinnest napkins made on earth. It was a culinary delight. Perfectly cooked, with a bit of the patty's juices soaking the bottom bun, I devoured it probably too quickly. I should've savored it more. Simplicity. Great service. A locals-only vibe that still feels welcoming to new faces. Ercole's is an institution that is well worth the drive from wherever you're coming from any night of the week. Can't wait to go back again, and again, and again, and... read more

Listen, I'm not one to stray far from my cozy North Redondo/Hermosa Beach bubble--but when I do, it's for one reason and one reason only: Courtney. Yes, this goddess behind the bar at Ercole's is the kind of fun, hot, warm, and attentive energy you didn't know your week was missing. She's slinging drinks Tuesday through Thursday during the day, and let me tell you, she's worth every second of the "commute". Ercole's is everything a dive bar should be: unapologetically laid-back with a vibe that feels like home (if home came with stiff drinks and a pool table). But it's Courtney who truly takes the experience to the next level. Need a killer Bloody Mary, salty dog or a perfectly poured beer? She's got you. Want a bartender who knows your name by your second visit and makes you feel like a VIP? That's Courtney in a nutshell. She's not just pouring drinks; she's pouring charm, good vibes, and a little bit of magic into every interaction. And let's be real--what more could you possibly require from a dive bar? So, if you're looking for a fun, sexy, and utterly unpretentious good time, Ercole's on a Courtney day is where you need to be. You might even start rethinking your bubble entirely. Cheers! read more

WHAT THE HECK!! Ercoles 1101 in Manhattan Beach is one AWESOME "Dive Bar"!! We were walking around Manhattan Beach when we came across Ercoles 1101. We all decided to drop in and have a couple of drinks before exploring more of the city. While waiting for our drinks at the bar, one of the staff members was making burgers. We already had reservations for dinner that evening, but we all could not resist trying the burgers. Wowza!! The burgers that they make taste FANTASTIC!!! The 5 of us unanimously agreed that the burger was one of the best we'd ever eaten anywhere!! To find this delicious a burger at a dive bar was a total surprise!! Don't be fooled by appearances, Ercoles 1101 is one GEM of a place. If you don't want to go inside to order your burger, then they do have a window where you can place your order while you wait outside. So do yourself a favor and stop by Ercoles 1101 whenever you find yourself in Manhattan Beach. They've been around since 1927, and I think they will be continue to be here for many more years to come. Can't wait to return every time we are in town. read more

I ate mine inside with some friends and was honestly shocked but how good the burger was. Perfectly made on a grill, juicy and fresh. You get a bag of chips along with your burger. This spot is also great for you to watch a game, hang back and grab a beer if you're in the area too. I love that this is a hidden treasure in manhattan beach. read more

TLDR Great place to grab a burger and beer or bring it to the beach. Must try. Rating Amazing burger so 5 stars. Parking Parking is pretty difficult being around the beach mostly metered parking and some lots. Review I recently stopped by to try the burger, ordering at the takeout window based on glowing recommendations from Reddit, which recommended this place as one of the best burger in South Bay. I skipped the cheese today because this was an after dinner meal. The hamburger is simple yet executed perfectly. The star of the show is definitely the hamburger patty - incredibly juicy and packed with flavor. However, I did notice that the juices weren't evenly distributed. They cut the burger in half for you, and I suspect it would benefit from resting a bit longer before being sliced. For the best experience, you might want to request they skip the cut and let it sit for a few minutes before diving in. Having tried burgers from Proudly Serving, Corner Burger and HiHo (Santa Monica), I can confidently say this one ranks at the top. There is a lot of talk about the meat coming from the market next door so might want to check out the market next door for making great food at home. read more

Bustling dive bar in Manhattan Beach that's located right next to Manhattan Beach Meats. Came here with a couple of friends on a Tuesday night around 6pm and the place was busy. Indoor dining only, no outdoor options available. Metered street parking is available. Credit cards are accepted but there's a slight discount if you pay with cash. You order at the bar (no table service available). On Tuesdays, they have taco Tuesday where you can get 3 tacos for $8. You can get beef, chicken, or veggies and the tacos come with a side of salsa and sour cream. The meat was tasty, though the veggie option was good as well. You have various options for drinks. There is a pool table in the back. There is a communal table in the middle as well, where you could hang out read more

After about twenty minutes of being ignored someone came and grabbed my husbands empty glass but left my completely full glass sitting on the bar mat. Another ten minutes or so of still not being checked on and we finally decided to leave. I'm out the twelve bucks for my drink but I consider it a twelve dollar lesson in not coming back here again.

The sauce is a little sweet, and no one at my table thought it was as amazing as they claim. Don't get me wrong, they have good crunch and all that, but they end up being almost $3.00 a wing. I got the simmzys burger that's kinda like a smash burger. I didn't love the texture of the meat. I don't know what grind they are using, but it felt like a cheaper grind. It had some bits that were chewy. My husband had the other burger and he thought the same. Didn't love the meat. The fries are thin and you can mix with sweet potato fries which is fun. The tostada was a great deal for the price. I liked the place. I just wasn't blown away. They do a good job. But I've had better wings and burgers. Worth a try. I'd come again and order differently.

There's a long side bar, which made it easy to order drinks even with the crowd. The bartenders were attentive, friendly, and quick with service. They also have two dart boards in the back that are free to use, but it's first come, first serve so if you want to play, plan to get there earlier in the night. Overall, it's a fun spot for a night out with friends!

Waited a good 15 minutes before someone attended to us. The person that attended to us was the bartender. Realizing he is playing host, bartender and waiter. He handed us a menu and stated he will be back to take our orders. Another 15 minutes goes by and we finally order adult beverages. 10 minutes goes by which he delivered our drinks. I received my Michelob ultra which was like a cold slushy! I said perfect! Thats the way I like my drink. Super cold and icey. We ordered on the spot. Another 15 minutes goes by. Recieved our food. Wings, zucchini, hamburgers and tater tots. I have got to say.. the food here is exceptionally delicious! No complaints on the food. All was satisfying. The place has a ambiance like a tavern. Dark and cozy. Parking is a hit and miss. We came in a good time. Parking may be difficult on peak hours. If you use Google maps.. be aware, sometimes Google maps is retarded. As a first timer, Google maps got us driving around and around. Just remember that the bar is on Sepulveda and parking is in the back. Alittle frustrated. Lol Overall it was a good experience. They can work on their staffing for lunch hour. Maybe add one waitress to cover lunch time.

Honestly, everything on the menu hits , you really can't go wrong. A huge shoutout to Kelsey and Marissa, two of the funniest, friendliest servers you'll ever meet. They always bring great energy and make the experience even better. If you're looking for a place to catch football on Sundays, this is the place. Just a heads-up: get there early if you want a good seat, it fills up fast, and for good reason. Awesome food, great drinks, and even better people. Highly recommend!

It can get pretty pricey depending on what you order, but everything we had was delicious. We ordered the crab cake that our server highly recommended, a 1/2 dozen fresh oysters, and the Tomahawk steak -- all were excellent. Drinks were also on point; the margarita and espresso martini were both good. Our server also surprised us with a complimentary birthday treat, a really nice touch that made the night feel special. One heads up: be careful with parking meters! We saw a few people getting tickets while we were enjoying the beautiful view from our table. Definitely give yourself enough time on the meter so you can relax and enjoy your meal stress-free.

Our reservation wasn't until 8:30, so we hung out downstairs for about an hour first. Met a lot of people who were clearly locals and regulars, which always says a lot about a spot. Once we sat down for dinner, we ordered a few things. The bluefin tostadas are a must if you're into seafood. We also had the scallops delicious doesn't even do them justice, just wish there was more than one . My hubby ordered the lamb, which was probably our least favorite since it was a bit dry. The rigatoni though? Unbelievably good. Honestly, I'd come back and order the exact same items minus the lamb lol. Shoutout to Griffin for keeping us going all night . And the buttermilk bread? So good I almost cried. Parking is pretty easy, but definitely come early on a nice day. There are a couple of metered lots nearby with up to 5-hour parking. Fridays they've got a DJ after 9:30 PM... how swayyy See you next time!

When we pulled up, the parking lot in front of the bar was packed with people [the Rams had just finished their game]. We sat outside and ordered the Loaded fries and a couple of beers. The fries were very good and was their Pizza Parlor ale. It was a cold night and eventually we worked our way inside where a very nice couple allowed us to share their table. Inside the vibe was even better as the game progressed. This is undoubtedly a Packers bar but there were were a couple of Bears fans. Even through the game was between the Packers and the Bears, one of the oldest rivalries in football, everyone behaved very well. Some ribbing but respectful and fun. When the Bears came back and won, there were no mean or bad behavior. We also ordered a veggie tray and shared a Philly cheesesteak. Everything was really good and the service was excellent.
