The place is so comfortable and clean. It is not loud like a standard bar and there are places to sit that are super quiet. The service is super nice. They will take goo care of you. I love the music they play. I am so sick of elevator music and they don't do that. I really enjoy that. All of their food is great, but I am hooked on their salads. Their Sartori Caesar is one of my favorites. It has super fresh crisp romaine hearts with freshly grated parmesan cheese, sourdough croutons and house-made Caesar dressing. I love the dressing. Their Big Newport Wedge is better than most is has the best iceberg wedge topped with applewood smoked bacon, balsamic red onion, tomato and a great blue cheese dressing. All the food is great and we eat more than just salad, but their salad is a stand out.

I came here with a friend on a lazy Sunday afternoon when in dire need of some food and alcohol! We…read morewere both famished and wanted to place with healthy-ish options. We were thrilled to see a few menu options that were marked as vegan. Bonus points for being affordable! I completely missed their attached parking lot when I arrived and ended up parking across the street in the neighborhood, where there was ample free parking. When we arrived, the restaurant was about half full and there was live music occurring on the patio. We opted to sit inside where it was a little less noisy and there was a comfy and cozy booth calling our name. The vibe was great, with fun and eclectic decor. The service was really upbeat and friendly and our server was so kind and helpful. We asked him if the espresso martini had dairy in it (which I just discovered that is a thing at some places) and he double checked with the bartender to ensure there wasn't my dairy in it! I ordered that alongside a falafel wrap I must say, both of these worked so well together. The espresso martini was light and refreshing yet still had a bold flavor. The falafel was nice and crispy with a delectable inside and the tahini sauce was so rich and creamy. The meal felt indulgent yet hearty all at the same time. I left feeling so uplifted and relaxed all at the same time. Despite it being on the noisier side, I was still able to hear my friend well and it was such a great place for us to catch up. I would highly recommend this restaurant and would definitely return the next time I'm in the area!

We had a really good time here watching the Western Conference Finals! My husband had the lemon…read morepepper wings which he enjoyed, and 2 beers. I ordered the pastrami on rye (basically a Reuben) which was good. I wish it had more meat and it was half sliced, half chopped. Theirs seems to be all chopped up and crisped, which gives it a nice texture and almost bacon-y vibe. Messy but good. I had a side salad which was also good. Overall our meal was great and there were TVs visible from anywhere you sat, which is perfect for a sports bar. My big gripe is being charged $1 for pickles to go with a sandwich. Maybe you get more if they put them directly on the sandwich, but they forgot mine so the pickles came in a ramekin. 6 pickle slices for $1.

Inferno Kitchen in Harbor City is one of my regular spots now when I want a good halal meal…read more Burgers, sandwiches, tacos -- simple food, but they do it right. The food comes out fresh every time. The cheeseburger is juicy and actually seasoned, not bland. The tacos are loaded with tender meat and good toppings. The cheesesteak is amazing. Portions are solid too. You can tell they don't cheap out on the ingredients. What I like just as much is the people. The staff is really nice and easy to talk to. Feels like a family place, not some random counter. Makes grabbing food feel comfortable. Clean spot, fresh food, good halal, and kind people. If you're around Lomita or Harbor City and want a burger or tacos, go check it out. I keep going back. Highly recommend.

The cheeseburger and Philly cheesesteak were good and hot. The burger really didn't need a second patty in my opinion, 1 was enough. The Philly cheesesteak on the other hand could've used more meat so next time I would get double meat on that. The fries were hot and crispy. I like how the menu is not massive and they have a few things they do well.

They have Salsa day, Game day, Poker night, and a couple of other event nights keeps them busy, always enough room for a couple more to join in, so come find a night you'll like and join in. The beers, they didn't have many beers to choose from, one thing about a brewery like PTB is that they are limited to the beers they make, and only four beers to choose from on this night. They were selling small sandwiches from a local vendor for $10.00 dollars, a little high for a small sandwich which was just ok. Bring your own food it would be better. What I did not see was a television, which would be nice if you want to watch a Game or the Olympics that are coming soon. . Street parking only, so you will have to walk st least a block. Worth coming again. Check to see what they are having each day. This review could have easily been 3 stars, but I am optimistic that things will get better here.

Great for parties!…read more Big shout out and thank you to Willy, Jake and the rest of the staff at Stonefire. We had a big family party here this past weekend, and it was a huge success. We ordered roughly 7 of their Stimulus Package meals, and that fed about 25 of us. Willy helped us place the order a head of time, so when we arrived, everything was just a ready to go, yet still hot/fresh out of the kitchen. Jake and crew were attentive and ready to help out whenever/wherever necessary. Every team member that brought out food and/or helped us remove empty plates was very friendly and accommodating. Thanks again Stonefire, we will be back again soon!

I ate here for the first time today. It was okay, but not great. The ambiance in the restaurant is…read morepretty nice. The staff was friendly. The prices are definitely fair for a restaurant in Southern CA. The main reason I deducted two stars is some of the food quality was severely lacking. First, the garlic mashed potatoes were definitely super old and likely reheated many times. While they tasted okay, there was a thick dark brown hard crust on a big portion of them. Kind of like they have been cooked/reheated in a giant pan, the bottom layer had burnt, and they still scooped that out and served it to customers. It's pretty crazy because they could've just not put that in the bowl and I would've been fine. Also, I'm not sure about the green onions they put on them, that seems kinda odd. The pulled pork sandwich is what caused me to deduct another star. The bun was just like they pulled the bun out of a bag from the store and served it as is. It wasn't buttered or toasted or anything. It was just a very plain bun. There is not a lot of meat on the sandwich either. So when you bite into it, 80% of what's in your mouth is unseasoned plain bun. If they would've at least done something to the bun, the sandwich would've been a lot better. I think 3/5 stars is the perfect score for this place. I will likely try it again, but if the food quality is not better next time, it will be my last.

I had business in the same shopping center and decided to drop in for lunch…read more Torrance Tavern is restaurant bar located in a shopping center. Needless to say, there is plenty of parking. The interior is neat and clean. There are various types of seating (bar; table; booth; high-tops; communal), and plenty of screens to watch sports. On this occasion, I ordered the Tavern Fish & Chips ($22). It is described as "Alaskan cod coated in a tempura beer batter and served with French fries, tartar sauce and yuzu herb coleslaw". The positives of this dish are that it was prepared well. Both the fish and chips tasted good. The presentation was also nice; which leads to the coleslaw: The coleslaw tasted good, too; but I was surprised the serving was so spare. It's almost as if it was served just to optically balance the presentation in the basket. (See photo shared,) And while the price was not unreasonable, feel it's creeping towards expensive (relative to serving size). I'll attribute this to rising input costs. Staffing might be an issue during the lunchtime service. Service was okay, but they seemed to be understaffed. It's possible that most of their business is done after 5pm.

I would definitely return for the prime rib.

A little trip back to the '80s!…read more San Franciscan in Torrance feels like stepping into an old-school '80s steakhouse--small, dark, cozy, and nostalgic. Definitely make a reservation! The steak was great, especially for the price, and their house-made ranch was SO good. We also tried the fried zucchini, which was just okay, and the calamari sticks, which honestly reminded us more of fish sticks than calamari. Overall, a fun throwback spot with good steaks, reasonable prices, and lots of old-school charm!
