First time dining at Saint & Second and it was a great experience. We came for an early Father's Day dinner with a 5:30 reservation, and it was nice getting there before the dinner rush. The ambiance was perfect--upscale yet comfortable, and not so loud that you can't enjoy a conversation with your table. Jose G took great care of us throughout the evening. He was attentive, friendly, and made sure everything ran smoothly without being intrusive. The food was delicious. Our favorites were the wedge salad, lamb chops, and the ribeye. We finished with the s'mores and cheesecake desserts. Each dish had its own unique twist, and the flavors worked really well together. Overall, a wonderful dining experience with great food, service, and atmosphere. We'll definitely be back. read more

Beautiful venue, food is good but not great. Dog friendly outdoor patio. We sat at the bar. Service was kinda slow. We ordered the signature burger and shrimp cocktail from the brunch menu. Signature burger is pretty good. The fries were delicious. Shrimp cocktail was kinda a disappointment. Wasn't as crisp and fresh as I've had in other places. The brunch menu comes with 6. I wouldn't order this again. read more

Summer menu alert! *Green gods hummus: this replaces the fall, butternut squash, hummus. Avocado forward. * spicy salmon in waffle cones: the light and flaky waffle cones.

I ordered it with the flat iron steak, but the salad is good on its own. * classic French toast, oldie but goodie. Good egg bread, French toast that's fresh and light and warm maple syrup.

This place is located next to Joey in the shopping mall area. My friend made reservations on open table so was seated right away outdoors. Our server was prompt and happy he was able to make recommendations as hasn't seen my friend in forever so was happy to catch up. Overall food we had was the yellowtail app and steak frites that we shared were good. We asked the server to select our dessert to surprise us and have him pick and he chose the panna cota. I normally love as it's light, however the flavoring on this one was lacking and texture was off read more

We came with a group for lunch so we got to try a variety of dishes, and everything was delicious. The Fish & Chips were light, crunchy, and not greasy at all. It was a big chunk of fish. The Pan-Seared Salmon was perfectly cooked and flavorful. The Prime Steak & Frites was cooked to an absolute perfect medium and paired well with the crispy fries, and the S&S Signature Burger was juicy. The Charred Watermelon & Arugula Salad was fresh, adding the grilled shrimp made it perfect. The restaurant has a relaxed atmosphere, and the service was friendly and attentive throughout our meal. read more

Saint & Second - The booth was so comfortable we were there 3 hours of dinning - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Manhattan Beach, California

Stunning restaurant in Manhattan Village with an extensive bar that is indoor and outdoor. The interior is beautiful with their wine collection lining the main walkway of the dining area We had a pleasant server who took our drink orders. A Matcha Latte and a regular coffee. It took some time to arrive, assuming because the Latte took time to make. When asked if we needed cream and sugar, we said yes. The server returned with tiny spoons and then disappeared. It took another 10 mins for the cream and sugar. The server gave us suggestions for entrees and we ordered. When our food arrived, the floor manager asked how everything was but we hadn't taken the first bite yet. The server returned to ask if we wanted another Latte. He never inquired about the coffee nor did he offer to refill it. For the entire service, the regular coffee was never refilled. I had the avocado toast, which was just ok. I was told the egg would be lightly scrambled and I agreed but I should have had it poached. The runny yolk would have helped the hard crust of the toast. The floor manager removed our dishes and the server only returned to ask if we wanted dessert. Highly doubtful I will return with so many more options in the area. Ok, bye. read more

This was my first time visiting this restaurant. We had a reservation, but we still had to wait about 15 minutes. The place was packed, but it looked clean and the decor was beautiful. Our server was very friendly and recommended a few dishes. The truffle and honey bread was definitely my favorite! I would absolutely come back. read more

Lovely location that's beautifully decorated with an indoor/outdoor space. No issue parking in adjacent garage, but I'm sure it gets busy at peak times. I enjoyed the chorizo tacos. Although, the portion seemed small considering there is no side dish served with this. (Comes with 3 tacos). I will say that I was pleasantly surprised with how big their brunch menu is. They have a little bit of everything from avocado toast to pancakes to sandwiches. The service left a little to be desired. It seemed very slow even though we arrived not long after they opened and things were fairly quiet. It took a while to get requested items like creamer, receive our food and have our plates cleared. read more

Server Álvaro is an actual SAINT at Saint & Second! I want to start by clarifying that I went to S&S yesterday afternoon ready to cry major boo-hoo tears to my two besties, without much of an appetite. Instead, I ended up with a full belly and side cramps from laughing along with our awesome server, Alvaro. The Man. The Myth. The Legend that he is! Small Backstory: Last Friday I lost my job of almost 25 years in public education due to a complicated work accident (my back was broken & I now have screws in my spine) and I planned to whine to my best friends into a cocktail or two, and get out plenty of Kim Kardashian ugly-cry faces until it would be time to go home. Enter ALVARO! This kind man had the nerve to be polite to us! The nerve! LOL. He greeted us with a warm smile while my cold heart was practically making it snow. He explained all portions of the breathtaking menu when I had planed to eat my sadness. He even had the GALL to say if we wanted something not on the menu that he would see what he could do to make it happen! Here I was, ready to drink Unicorn Tears, and he was cheering me up! WHAT THE??! LOL The three is us started with the MEZZE PLATE. And OH LORD! I think we ate the print off of the plates while trying to get to the last crumb. We polished off a whole extra serving of cucumber slices in the process, by the way, and I'm not embarrassed to say that. The Turkish honey-sweetened labne was such a party in our mouths! Make of that what you will. Each of us got a dinner entre, with mine being the S&S Fish and Chips. I loved that the fillet was not overly battered and the chips had an almost double-Belgium fried taste going on. I couldn't help but swipe several spoons worth of aged-cheddar grits off a friend's seared pork chop plate. Now THOSE were some butter-heaven sent grits! My drink, that kept shooting partially through my nostrils from laughter, was a classic margarita on the rocks. No margaritas were injured/harmed in the process of my belly laughter. At some point towards the end of our night, a patron of the mall next door pulled the site-wide fire alarm, ringing through the whole location for everyone to use caution and head to the closest exit. If you grew up like my friends and I, you don't follow that suggestion unless you're trying to run out on the bill like a jerk. Bless be to Alvaro, he stopped by our table several times to apologize about the noise and flashing lights and explained the fire department was working on it. I explained that the Hood Cricket sound didn't bother us and we were happy to wait out the alarm. So not only did Alvaro provide us with excellent service, an outstanding meal, and generous smiles, but he also made sure that we felt SEEN. And THAT is what made the whole evening worth it. No sadness or cringey tears about a lost job were needed. It ends up all we needed was a server named Alvaro at Saint & Second to make my spirits feel high again. Pricing is a bit high but was totally worth it! Patrons were dressed business casual. Sound level, not counting the hood cricket, was mid and conversation was easy to have. Several televisions were playing different stations but no captions were provided. There is handicap parking available in the parking garage located just outside the front door of the establishment and no stairs or elevators are needed to enter. There are several entrances/exits to the available outdoor seating area and outdoor heaters are available. Glances around showed me that every patron I saw was tucking into their plates with smiles and were enjoying themselves. I have already made plans to return to S&S in another two weeks because it was indeed THAT GOOD! And for those fine diners that are wondering, "But what is a Hood Cricket?" An HC is a chirping fire-alarm that some of us are able to tune out with ease. You're welcome! read more

Saint & Second - Time for fish and chips! - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Manhattan Beach, California

I thought the vegetarian options were decent We got a ton of appetizers. The mezze plate was good with three dips and pita The avocado hummus was ok. It tasted a little odd The truffle Mac and cheese was great too and the Asian salad was delicious The Asian salad came with some crispy noodles on top and had mandarin oranges in a tasty dressing I got the quinoa bowl - it tasted very healthy and was packed with super foods. It was a little under seasoned though I for Fries on the side too. I wish they were cooked a little more well done. They were a little pale overly salty and had gotten cold. I still ate all of them because the tasted so good The servers were really good and attentive Had an oat milk decaf latte at the end which was great as well!! read more

Ehhh.... That's how I feel about this place. Just "ehh." I was so excited to try something new in my backyard but their summer seasonal menu lacks enough items to be enthused over. We started the hummus plate app-- arrived dripping with oil (even the bread is saturated) and the green & grainy hummus was just a fail. Somebody should have tested that menu item before adding it to the menu. Our whole group passed on it after a bite. Cesar salad- Sparked a manhunt for the lettuce hidden under a liter of dressing. Salmon Tacos- zero flavor. I asked for the salt shaker to help the cause. Also, the purple tortillas were soft in the middle, and stale all around the outer edges so the bite of food was off putting just chewing a semi-hard tortilla. If I could rate the staff and manager separate from the food though? Five stars. They were friendly & attentive. read more

JOEY had a bit of a wait so I saw Saint & Second across the way with no wait. So our group shifted to Saint & Second.... Good decision! They have indoor and outdoor seating as well as a bar area. They also have a private room that seats 12 people (lunch hour you have to spend $750 and dinner is $1200). If you arrive just before dinner, there's no wait but as it got closer to 6/7pm, the crowd grew. Regina was our waitress and she was outstanding! We had a party of 9 (plus a baby) and she was very attentive. She made some good menu suggestions for drinks. I'm usually a cognac drinker but since they didn't have cognac I went with the cranberry spritz (refreshing gin drink). As for the meal, I had Cesar salad and dinner rolls..... best dinner rolls in America.... I'm convinced. Served warm with truffle butter, soft and fresh. So delicious we ordered a few! My friend said the pork chops are absolutely delicious and 2 others recommend the fish and chips. Since it's located in the village Mall, the closest parking would be the south village parking structure. I can't wait to go back and try some other menu options. read more

This is a new restaurant within this complex that is host to many shops and restaurant. Given all the establishments in this shopping mall, these places gets super busy, especially on the weekends and nice evenings. Parking can be tight...there is a garage parking lot. And parking outside of the lot as well. Best to come early to this restaurant on the weekends and nice evenings. The restaurant is hot as new. Most of the restaurant is bar seating which is indoors and outdoors. Some seats are around the bar and some high boy tables. There are seats on the patio area, including a couch space. Inside there are some tables, best to make reservations for the tables as limited. The restaurant also features a private dining area. The restaurant has an extensive drink menu. The drink menu features a long list of wines, cocktails and beers. Plus, the restaurant has a small happy hour which features a couple of cocktails, wines, beers and some appetizers. We had a couple of appetizers and then moved onto the regular menu. We settled on a 26-dollar hamburger and steak. Hamburger was solid in taste although a bit pricey. The steak was perfectly cooked! Better prepared than a recent steak that I had ruth chris which is supposed to be known for their steaks. My only gripe- was that they seemed a little overwhelmed with the crowd. Even though we were at the bar, it was hard to get service. And given how loud the bar area is and how far we are away from servers it's hard to get their attention. When you are paying big bucks, you want excellent service! read more

Made a reservation here for a brunch with friends. Online reservation was easy. Upon arrival we were seated right away if not early, our party of four trickled in slowly but they still let us sit down. Service was attentive and helpful. We got our drinks first followed by food order. I got the shakshuka which was very good and full of flavor. There is a slight spicy kick to it. The food came out quickly and they had our waters filled frequently. Overall my friends enjoyed their brunch meals and we had a great time catching up and didn't feel rushed to leave at all. It's located in an outdoor mall space and we were able to continue our hang out in the common areas afterward. Parking was easy too especially in the morning hours. read more

I have been wanting to check out Saint and Second ever since they opened up at Manhattan Village last year. I finally got the chance to check it out during a brunch outing. Brunch is offered on weekends from 9am to 3pm and features a menu of various appetizers, breakfast offerings such as pancakes and egg dishes, as well as lunch sandwiches and salads. We started our meal with their Gochujang-Glazed Pork Belly ($19). This starter consisted of two big pieces of pork belly alongside some Korean condiments, kimchi, scallion, pickled daikon and butter lettuce. It was a good starter overall though I felt that the pork belly was not as tender as expected. Nevertheless I was fan that it was a lean cut of pork. The pairing kimchi had just a mild level of spice. For our mains, we ordered the Smoked Tri-Tip Hash ($24) and the Crispy Chicken Sandwich ($21). I had originally thought the Tri-Tip Hash would feature thin pieces of tri-tip but I was surprised to see large, generous pieces of meat. The portion size of this dish was perfect for sharing. The tri-tip was smothered with a rich chipotle hollandaise and served with Yukon potatoes, onions, bits of bacon, broccolini, two poached eggs and two sourdough breads. Though this was quite a fulfilling dish, I found the tri-tip to be a bit tough. The Crispy Chicken Sandwich was also quite large in size. It came on a soft potato brioche bun that was toasted to achieve wonderfully crisp edges. I loved the crisp bread as well as the crunchy chicken patty, though I did find the chicken to be a bit on the salty side. The saltiness was somewhat offset by the peanut chili crunch, though I wish they had added more of it. The addition of Korean pickles, purple cabbage slaw, kimchi comeback sauce was also a nice touch. This sandwich also came with side salad consisting of local greens and herbs with sherry vinaigrette dressing. The salad was a refreshing compliment to the dish. Last but not least, I got a Vanilla Latte ($6.50). This drink is made out of the restaurant's housemade vanilla syrup, espresso and steamed milk. While the drink was smooth, it did not quite deliver that sweet vanilla flavor. Overall, I enjoyed Saint and Second. I did have somewhat high expectations and while I found the meal to be pleasant, it wasn't quite what I had imagined. That being said, I would still come back again to try their other dishes. read more

The Baseline: For a sit down upper-scale restaurant is the quality of the food, existence of any unique offerings, quality of the service, and ambiance of the overall dining experience. December 2025: Food: The Smoked and Glazed Pork Chop is my new favorite. I paired it with the Kumquat Honey bourbon cocktail for the extra goodness. The Spanish Fried Calamari is also a great appetizer with a cool mix of chili and shishito peppers mixed in with the dish. Also the S'mores Desert bar is a fantastic ended to a meal here at Saint and Second. Service: Excellent service the night I went without empty water glasses and attentive wait staff. Top Notch! Ambiance: I have to make it back after the holiday because the decor and lighting is really nice at this location. Noise level is less than Joey's across the walk. read more

Was in the area and looked for a happy hour spot nearby. Tried Saint and Second for the first time and it looks like they have multiple locations. This Manhattan Beach location is located in an outdoor shopping mall type plaza and looks relatively newer and very clean. Parking was easy and free! For happy hour, you can only sit at the bar inside or the lounge or high top seating in the patio. Both still look nice and the ambience is very modern yet coastal. Happy hour (HH) is 3-6 pm on weekdays. The alcohol was reasonable priced for the area. We ended up having two glasses of wine per person. We ordered 4 dishes off the HH menu between 2 ppl (half dozen oyster, fried chicken sliders, salmon taco, pork belly lettuce wrap) . Over all the food was good and it was decently flavorful. However, I felt like the pork lettuce wrap was relative small and not worth $11ish dollars. Service was pretty good and typically. We were not forgotten on the patio ! Which is a concern sometimes. read more

Saint & Second - Mid-day menu - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Manhattan Beach, California

Saint and Second but they are definitely taking the first place in my brunch rating Located in Manhattan Village, it's a convenient spot with plenty of parking and nearby stores for shopping or errands afterward. My friend and I visited on a Saturday for their weekend brunch and were seated immediately. The interior is stunning; modern and classy, with a vibe that reminded me of being on a luxurious yacht. We started with drinks: a campfire latte and fresh-squeezed orange juice. The campfire latte was outstanding! Rich, smoky, and slightly salty, which made it unique and memorable. For food, I ordered the Maine lobster roll with fries, and my friend had the chorizo and egg tacos. The food arrived quickly, and everything was excellent. The lobster roll was a standout: the roll was fluffy and buttery, and the lobster was tender and flavorful. My friend raved about her tacos, saying they were packed with flavor and perfectly cooked. One of the best parts of the experience was the atmosphere. We were able to sit and catch up for a long time without feeling rushed, which is rare and appreciated. The staff was attentive, friendly, and offered great suggestions throughout our visit. Overall, this was an exceptional brunch experience, and I'm already planning to return to try their dinner menu. Highly recommend Saint & Second for anyone looking for a delicious meal in a beautiful setting with excellent service.I will be back to try their dinner menu :) read more

We've been waiting a long time for this place to open. We've been to their other location a few times, so I was excited to have one just down the street of us. Inside looks very handsome and classic. Large bar stool area and lots of seating too. We ordered the Asian slaw salad with salmon and the burger. Kids had Mac n cheese and grilled cheese. Asian slaw salad with salmon was good. Felt really healthy eating it as it has a variety of veggies and their salmon was cooked perfectly with a crispy skin. Burger was also delicious and tasty with a side of skinny fries. I was impressed with the Mac n cheese too, really tasty and cheesy. Son loves his grilled cheese, large portion for kids. Cocktail drinks were also good too.

Wow what a crew they have in place here! My friend made the reservation yesterday, and boy was it needed! You better not think of coming here without a reservation, or be prepared to wait...and wait. We certainly did the first time around a few weeks ago! Janet was our server and achieved CSA or Customer service All-Star status. From the outset, she made a fresh batch of coffee, and took our order with a pleasant demeanor and energy. Insider tip: If there are only two in your party, ask for table 301. Let's call it.....Rob G My guest went with the traditional breakfast along with eggs scrambled well, bacon, and opted for a biscuit as opposed to sliced bread. I went with the chicken sandwich that comes with the side salad. My piece of chicken could have been bigger as I'm a bigger guy, but other than that all was perfect. Honorable mention goes out to the staff as a whole, particularly those ladies who were tasked with keeping things organized and running as a well-oiled machine up front. Managing the influx of those who had reservations with those who didn't, as well as walk-ins, is not as easy as some may think. Kudos to them as well read more

Making a reservation online was quick and easy. They also had plenty of seating inside and out, so they may be able to accommodate walk-in also. The restaurant is located in the center of the shopping area, and parking in one of the garages is the best option. We had a party of four, and they weren't too busy when we arrived. We were seated outside with a view of the courtyard, This was perfect for people watching. Our server, Brooke, was very attentive and prompt in meeting our needs. The couple we were with enjoyed the mimosa flight, which came with a full bottle of champagne. I ordered the Smoked Tri-Tip Hash. It was full of flavor. I don't mind poached eggs, but if that's not your thing, be sure to ask for them cooked differently. The yolk, while tasty, gets everywhere! I also tried some of the pancakes, chef's kiss. They come as two large pancakes, so if that's your meal, you'll definitely be full. They could also be good for sharing. Everyone was satisfied with their meals. Some others in the party lightly added salt and pepper to their meals, but the Tri-Tip Hash was good for me. I often stay in the Manhattan Beach area when I'm in LA, and this restaurant has definitely been added to my list of go-to list. read more

The ambiance and vibe of this place is nice with the modern industrial look and indoor/outdoor bar area. I found the food to be okay, but nothing I would crave coming back for. They are owned by the same family that opened Hof's Hut and Lucille's BBQ, so this restaurant is a newer concept for them. The place is smaller than it looks outside. Although we had a reservation, we were seated at a high top near the bar on a weeknight. Good place to meet up with friends for dinner since it's easier to get a table here. You'll note that this place has seats available while JOEY, CPK, Handel's, and Silverlake are all at capacity. read more
