Unfortunately the valet's service is not professional to say the least. Last Saturday Aug 8th I had a 1:30PM reservation for my birthday party but I couldn't get in the restaurant because the valet was extremely rude. He even threatened to call the towing service. He smelled like alcohol and looked he was under the influence. I was so scared that I decided to cancel my reservation and left to celebrate my birthday party in another restaurant. I didn't feel HT Grill parking lot safe for myself or my guests. read more

Free surf n turf on your birthday! Exact birthday (they check ID) and after 4pm - those are the only strings! The lobster and the accompanying sides were delicious, the beef felt a little tough for me. S got their short rib and enjoyed that too but we both agreed that the lobster was the star. I made reservations easily on OpenTable. We sat on the outdoor patio since it was a nice day but beware of the skeeters! Service was friendly and I appreciated that it was pretty low key (as in, the staff doesn't come around to sing happy birthday or anything to make it a spectacle). It seems like they have a lot of regular dinner patrons, not just people here to imbibe on their birthday deal (Catalina Kitchen at the Terranea used to do something like this too...except everyone eating was also celebrating a birthday). The restaurant is also walking distance to the beach so we enjoyed a post dinner walk. Parking: we parked on the street a couple of blocks away read more

Dave and I went to this fabulous restaurant to celebrate his birthday! We were seated almost immediately in the back of the bar on a stairstep table we actually sat on the same side to see the bar the door and activity. It was great! Daniel was our waiter stupendous! Awesome!!! Ask for him.the food was way above our expectations as was the varied menu! Dave enjoyed the Surf n Turf dinner. He showed his driver's license to the Manager. Yay!!!! Gorgeous presentation. He loved it! I loved my brussel sprouts Oh my g!!! And my burger and hot hot fries. Yummy. Such a great experience. Go early...430pmish Monday thru Friday. Yummy!!!!! Thank you HTGrill. Daniel you deserved it! ($$$) you were awesome!!! read more

My boyfriend and I went to HT Grill on 9-12-26 around 5:30 pm and sat at the bar, we were greeted by a female bartender not very friendly but also not rude and asked what we wanted to drink. After getting our drinks and asking if we were ready to order I asked her a question between two items she gave decent feedback and I ordered the chicken parm with the vodka sauce added a side salad and my boyfriend ordered ribeye Med rare . Not once by our bartender or the other bartenders working that night check up on us after receiving our food and or asked if we wanted anything else. I even asked for pepper and salt and even then no questions on how we were. My chicken parm was good but my boyfriend's steak was not cooked to temperature he order. The individuals working the bar were more interested in each other than the few customers they had at the bar. The bartender who I believed took our order name is Alyssa and I'm only assuming that b/c that's the name on my receipt , I even had to ask for the check once we were done eating Such a shame of the service we received that night and in general we feel the service has gone down hill from either siting at the bar or at a table. read more

Came for my surf and turf birthday dinner and it did not disappoint. There were 6 of us (3 adults and 3 kids) and we had a fun time sitting on the patio. There was a heater right by us and so it was very nice to sit outside and watch people walk by. The surf and turf was so delicious. My son took a bite and said he was coming here for his birthday lol. Staff and the manager came by to wish me a happy birthday and couldn't have been more polite and friendly. I've come here several times now and always the same consistent pleasant experience. They have good happy hour from 4-7pm weekdays and food is always on point. My go to spot for a week night happy hour! read more

HT Grill - Surf & Turf for my birthday! - New American Near Me - Redondo Beach, California

My first review was shortly after things reopened from Covid. So maybe a bit harsh given the possibility it was difficult to find staff. Since then I have celebrated my birthday three years running. You cannot beat the free surf and turf. It's the best dish on the menu. And we often meet on Friday's for happy hour. Drinks are good, and the menu is decent. And if you're a single person good spot to meet classier people. Some nights they have live music. Weekends draws a good crowd. Happy hour is usually packed. read more

I just read my review two years ago and am happy to update! My Mom and I had dinner here on Monday and was blessed to have Kai as our server (he usually bartends). What a treat! We are a restaurant family and are very aware of service, the temperature of food when it hits the table, etc. From every aspect, HT Grill was excellent, but the service Kai provided was beyond exemplary! (Apologies if his name is misspelled!) He asked and remembered our names, spent just enough time to chat (without hurting the service of other tables), checked on us at appropriate times (including asking if the temp of my steak was what I had hoped) and made sure we had what we needed throughout the meal. His timing was impeccable and charisma was stellar. The food was on point. We started with calamari and shrimp and the cauliflower appetizer. Delicious!! I had steak and lobster and both were cooked very well. Mom had the salmon and was very pleased with it. We were stuffed so we skipped dessert, but are looking forward to a return visit soon. I would be remiss if I didn't mention we also met Nick, the manager. Really nice man and also charismatic. What a great experience!!! read more

HT Grill - Steak and lobster - New American Near Me - Redondo Beach, California

My husband and I have had lunch at H. T. Grill in Redondo Beach a couple of times. It's very enjoyable sitting outside in the patio. They also have inside dining. My husband has ordered the beef birria tacos (3) and pepper roasted USDA prime rib dip sandwich with fries. Loved both of them. I have ordered the Mahi Mahi fish sandwich with fries and the rockfish tacos (3). Loved the Mahi Mahi sandwich but didn't like the rockfish tacos. The tacos had a thick batter and were fried. I prefer grilled fish tacos. I asked the server if they could grill the fish next time. She checked and said yes. So if you prefer crispy fried fish tacos then you'll love the rockfish tacos. If you would rather have a healthier alternative you can ask them to grill the fish. Check out their website for wine and dinner specials. On Wednesdays they have 1/2 off all wines by the glass from 11 to 4 pm. read more

The free surf and turf on your birthday was actually worth it, definitely recommend to go there and check it out.

HT pairs the best people, atmosphere, and tonight, the best food & wine. The first course of HT Grill's Monday Night Chef's Tasting Wine Tasting couldn't be better. And I couldn't be happier. Love this place - especially the bar. Thanks Ashley and Alberto for bringing it all together. read more

Had the BEST birthday dinner at H.T. Grill! You get a FREE surf & turf (steak & lobster) on your birthday -- such an amazing deal and absolutely worth it. The servers were very nice and friendly, and the whole experience felt welcoming from start to finish. The vibe is great both indoors and outdoors, so you can choose whichever atmosphere you prefer. Parking tip: You might want to park on Ave I and walk about 2 minutes -- super easy! Don't forget to bring your ID to confirm your birthday. Honestly, this is the best birthday dinner deal. Highly recommend -- must go! read more

Enjoyed my Birthday at HT the 27th.My 63rd! I was very impressed with not only the service, but ambiance! We had our reservation for 5:45. Seated, in a nice patio table. I felt like I was in a 4 star restaurant! The beautiful lighting. My complimentary " Surf and Turf" was top notch. Delicious. We will definitely be returning soon.

We had a wonderful birthday dinner for our friend. The food and service were excellent. Several of us got the chicken piccata which was delicious. (I've ordered it before and think it is one of the best I've had.) The birthday girl, of course, ordered the Surf and Turf birthday meal which she said was yummy. The service was excellent. We shared 3 desserts which were all tasty - - bread pudding, chocolate cake, and tiramisu. A wonderful, festive meal for all! read more

I'd like to start by complimenting Richard, excellent server! Ambiance is lovely, can't go wrong in the village. Overall, the food was good! Only complaint is that my filet was overcooked--closer to medium well than what i asked for, medium rare. read more

Shoutout to Ashley, our server, for the phenomenal customer service and recommendations! This place was lively and friendly. I tried their salmon, which is wild caught and fresh, that melted into my mouth. It was the best salmon dish ever! Extensive menu selection, and fabulous drinks to boot! I had an amazing dining experience, here. Highly recommended. This place is busy! Seriously, delicious food! read more

Chose this place on a whim for a birthday dinner, at first it was because of the ambiance but then I found out that if it's your birthday you get a free surf & turf entree! The only caveat is it's dine-in only, after 4 PM, and you need to show your ID. Booking a reservation was easy using OpenTable and we booked on a Saturday night at 7 PM for four people. Just be warned that since it is in Redondo Beach and on the restaurant block, parking can be difficult to find depending on what time you go. We couldn't find parking and eventually gave in to the $7 valet parking. The restaurant was busy, but it only took a few minutes for us to get seated to our table. For appetizers, we got the brussel sprouts and the spinach & artichoke dip to share. There was complimentary bread that was warm and fresh and came with softened butter and this herby olive oil. The brussel sprouts were crispy and a little sweet from the balsamic glaze and the spinach dip was creamy and had good chunks of artichoke in it. For my entree, I got the short rib with mashed potatoes and broccoli (the menu said broccolini but it was just regular broccoli). The short rib was tender enough that I didn't have to use a knife but the mashed potatoes tasted a bit over mashed. Another person in my party got the margherita pizza as her entree and it was cheesy and the crust was light and crispy. The person that got the surf & turf was satisfied with how the dish came out and the steak was cooked per request. For dessert, we got the creme brûlée cheesecake to share and the slice they gave us was huge! Overall, the service and food were great. Just the birthday deal alone is a good enough reason to try this place but I would come back to try their other dishes too! read more

Bad food. Very slow service. Branzino and French onion soup had no taste. Served was so busy that it took forever to get served. We had get the manager to help us to get served. Overall one of the worst food and service experience I have had in South Bay. read more

HT Grill offers the "Food, Service & Ambiance"! If you don't love the food, well... you don't love to eat. The staff is the finest in the South Bay. They are friendly, professional and are adept working with old guys like me or a family with kids and a dog in tow. The ambiance is professional, beachy and comfortable. Try it out! read more

I can't find anything wrong with this place. That's why I'm giving them 5 stars. It's a cute restaurant with lots of seating both indoors and outdoors. The bathroom is clean. The service was excellent (thanks to Brian) Plus they use real plates and dinnerware. My husband and I both had the mahi-mahi sandwich with fries. We asked for the mahi to be blackened and I asked for the fries to be crispy. The presentation is also really good! Everything came out just as expected andtasted delicious, we ate every bite! read more

HT Grill has always been a great place to eat for me & the family. Today as just terrible. We sat and were given our menus. 2 brunch and 2 regular menus. When we ordered we were informed it's only the brunch menu available. So we pivoted and ordered. My brother ordered a hamburger requesting med-rare. Our food trickled out 1 at a time with burger coming last. You could see when it arrived that it was burnt around the outside. My brother opened the burger and hamburger was way well done. Asked the server to return for new one. 10+ minutes later, Taya the GM trotted out the original burger and asked my brother what was wrong with it. He told her the problem, Taya the told him to cut it in half so she could see. WTF?!? It was embarrassing, even other tables looked over. What happened to CUSTOMER SERVICE TAYA??? We waited another 10+ minutes for him to get his replacement meal. In the meantime, we were almost done before his new burger arrived. And shocker, this one didn't come out right either. We told server to return and take off the menu. I had also order pancakes which Never came so told server to make sure those were off the menu as well. Completely disappointed with this place. Will Not Be Returning Ever. read more

My friend had surf & turf for her birthday. I had fried calamari and beet burrata. Wonderful meal. Daniel T was our server and was very attentive to our every request. We shared a bottle of Rombauer so all was wonderful, except I had to leave my table to ask a drunk to quite down. He didn't. So I asked manager, Clarence why he didn't 86 the guy or at least cut him off so he would leave. I own a venue in Las Vegas and I would have taken that drunk out quick, fast and in a hurry. My bill was $140.00. So my ambiance should have been worth more than what the drunk was drinking. read more

What a great evening my friend and I had. Beautiful outside patio that is in the heart of the Redondo beach village. Our server Gavin was the best. He was so friendly and attentive and fun! He had the best personality. We ordered fish tacos which were very tasty and a healthy portion. Also, the mahi mahi sandwich was delicious, the french fries are perfectly made too. A Bellini to toast friendship and we had a lovely evening read more

This would be a 1 or 2 but I have generally had great service and experience. So here is the good. The Mac and Cheese is great. Food has always been great. The place is great to sit outside and enjoy. So hopefully this is just a one and done situation. Bad. Today I came in with one other and we ordered Mac and Cheese, a chicken sandwhich and a burger. The place wasn't crowded. Well it took over 40 minutes to get our meal. We did get our Mac appetizer and then we never saw our for 24 minutes after the appetizer. The burger was wrong but since we knew how long the wait was going to be she just ate it. The problem is the only time we saw server was when she brought our food. The other server (not bus boy) filled our water. So we didn't even have a chance to have them refire the burger anyways. Hope it gets better as I am a 20% plus tipper but this service does not warrant that tip. And this is where the tipping culture and how servers think is a problem. I will say the other server fought us our check and took the wrong burger off the bill so it was at least done correctly. And there was. In confrontation or anger. Just told him burger was wrong and we didn't see anyone to be able to fix it. He still offered to fix it. So again hoping our server was just having an off day. Time will tell! read more

I came here for the first time recently based on a friends recommendation. It was a great experience The service, waiter, ambience and food were amazing.

Not only is this one of our very favorite spots on the planet, the food is becoming better and better every day thanks to the chef, Eddie! We went in the day before Saint Paddy's day and had their corned beef prefix menu. The corned beef was delicious and the carrots were cooked perfectly with lots of flavor, but my favorite part was the lamb stew! It was a clear broth absolutely delicious and reduced to perfection! This place never fails our expectations! We will forever be regular patrons there ...and thank you again to the chef for making our meals exemplary of what delicious dining should be! read more

First time on the patio! Barrett was right there to assist with the menu, and check on our beverages. We had our Chardonnay in hand, and we were looking forward to a great lunch with our guests. How good can it get? Shrimp with penne in vodka sauce... wonderful!! The wrap special was also really good...huge in a soft wrap with perfect shoestring fries. This is a favorite gem on Catalina Avenue!! read more

Most of our visits here were a 5 rating...except for last Sunday around 11am. Coffee was served cold, had to wait. Food consisting of eggs, bacon, sausage and potatoes were served cold, had to wait. Had to ask twice for water and salt and pepper. Place was not that busy. Once everything was heated and brought to the table, everything was good. We will be back, this could have been one bad time. read more

All our food was wonderful and yummy, birria street tacos, clam chowder, Mac & cheese & Brussel sprouts. The place was very clean and organized, my birthday was complete and we will be coming back for my husband's birthday. Thank you read more

We've been to HT Grill for drinks and always enjoyed it, so we came for dinner to celebrate my husband's birthday and try their birthday promotion. Unfortunately, the experience was disappointing. It took about 15 minutes for our server, Krystal, to greet us, and although we mentioned the birthday, there was no acknowledgment. After ordering, another 15 minutes passed without waters, beverages, or even place settings. Our appetizer arrived, but I had to go inside to request napkins and silverware, and it began to feel like we were forgotten. Our server never checked back in, we weren't offered additional drinks, and our glasses stayed empty. After finishing, we waited 20 minutes to get the bill, and when it was dropped off, she walked away before I could hand my card. After another 10 minutes, I had to go inside again to complete payment. I understand things can get busy, but the restaurant didn't seem overwhelmed. For a birthday dinner, we expected at least basic attentiveness or an apology, neither of which we received. Overall, a frustrating experience. read more
