From the welcome to the service and then the fireworks of it all ~ the food and wine! Had the amazing opportunity to dine twice at the ultimate gem of Riviera Village. The wine suggested by the fantastic bartender paired beautifully with my filet. The Brussels sprouts in a delectable sauce made me want to order another round. The bar staff and manager were beyond helpful and kind, making sure I had everything I needed to enjoy dinner in this stunning space. From the local curated art to the dim lighting to the beautiful accents, this restaurant deserves to be a top 10 date night spot for anyone wanting that intimate meritage where culinary art meets hidden treasures and moments. Don't walk, run to this fabulous restaurant! I can't wait to return. P.S I wish I had more pictures of the food and ambiance. You just have to go and see for yourself. read more

Was headed to my first Beachlife Festival but wanted to get a drink (fine, fine, maybe a couple) and some food. Which leads me to trusty Yelp. I haven't been to Riviera Village in years since I had a bf who lived in Redondo but had always loved this part of Redondo as I think it's pretty mellow. My things have changed but still mellow compared to other beach cities. Sat at the bar where I was served by the most knowledgeable bartender ever - Kenneth! Cocktails were great as was the smash burger. Will definitely go back if in the area. Cool spot! read more

Location is great. The decor is beautiful. Street parking available (4hr parking limit). Staff were super friendly. We came in on a Saturday night. Party of 5. The table we sat at was in a good location. The waiter came in right away to take our drinks and appetizers orders. We waited maybe 15-20mins for the food. Everything tasted wonderfully. My favorite item was the Portobello fries and the sauce it came with. You must try it! It was actually a hit at the table. I had the clams, which are from Washington. The dish was delicious and I enjoyed it very much. It has some tomato like sauce with chorizo hints. It comes with a side of bread to dip in the sauce. It had a very mild hint of spicy. My nose was definitely runny but my taste buds were alive. Unfortunately, as much as I enjoyed the clams, I didn't follow the rule to not eat clams on month that does not end with "er". After I got home, about an hour after eating I was sick and returned the clams to the sewer :/ so I will not be having them again, at least not until after September. The key lime pie was also not the best, I think the chocolate mousse was much better in terms of flavor. Overall, I will definitely stop by again when in the area. read more

So boom -- I was assigned the very serious responsibility of finding a dinner spot for my Nana's birthday. No pressure, right? I had bookmarked this place a while back, so it was finally its time to shine We sat outside (brave, I know), but the heaters were working like they were trying to get into heaven. Amen. Now let's talk about the main event: the food. I ordered the shrimp Caesar salad. Nana got the fish & chips (and she wasn't the biggest fan), My mom had the miso salmon, my aunt went for the short rib pasta, her girlfriend also got the miso salmon -- but upgraded with Brussels sprouts -- and my uncle ordered the seafood roll. We also started with calamari, fries, and drinks because we believe in abundance. Let me tell you: everything on that table did NOT stand a chance. The service- Attentive, accommodating, and patient with our "let's add one more thing" energy. If you're in the area, show them some love. I already have plans to come back for that short rib pasta!! P.S. Meter parking is available. read more

Max and Mat were awesome during our visit. This was our second time here and we came on a Wednesday so we took advantage of the $42 meal. It was perfect. We ordered extra items that were not included in the pre fixe menu. The oysters, wasabi slaw, and focaccia bread were added to our dinner special. We were definitely satisfied with our meal. Ambiance was nice, with your average noise. Thank you for this wonderful meal. We're definitely coming back. read more

Salt & Pearl - Herb Focaccia - Seafood Near Me - Redondo Beach, California

We came here for an early lunch and enjoyed our service and cocktail drinks. We ordered the Seafood Roll with King Crab, Raw Oysters, Peruvian scallops, Fish&Chips, Clam with Chirizo, Beet Salad, Wasabi Slaw and Caesar Salad. We really enjoyed the Roll, Oysters, Fish&Chips and all the salads. Would recommend! Peruvian scallops are one of my favorite things and I was underwhelmed with the flavor of their preparation. Another miss was the clams. Flavors were spot on but the clams themselves had a mushy consistency. I mentioned it to the bartender and he didn't seem to want to address it. Overall a nice place but I'd skip the last two dishes mentioned above. read more

One of my favorites in the South Bay. Relatively new. It's a smaller space with a nice ambience. My bf and I love the scallops and oysters here. Ribeye was also really good. We tried the crab claw and it was good but for $7 each we didn't really think they were worth it as they are tiny. One time we got the clam chowder and it was amazing and the last time we went it was watery and tasted like tap water so idk if they changed the recipe. Cocktails are pretty good as well. Bartender will adjust your drink if needed. Cute date night spot. read more

My husband and I walked by here and saw their prime rib deal on Mondays - $25 for a 10 oz with horseradish and au jus sauce....what a deal! We were also there during happy hour which was awesome; some of the sides we wanted was on it! We got two prime rib cooked medium rare, brussel sprouts ($7), wasabi slaw ($5), and scalloped potatoes ($12 not on the happy hour menu). The meat was cooked perfectly with not much fat on it. The skin was peppery and flavorful and the meat was juicy. I wish the horseradish had more heat to it but understand not everyone may like it that way. My favorite sides was the potatoes and slaw. The potatoes came to us looking like a slice of cake - thick and super buttery. I know they say there's garlic, jalapenos and cheddar in it but the butter reigned supreme. I didn't taste any wasabi in the slaw, but it felt refreshing after eating the heavy potatoes and meat. I couldn't taste the gochujang in the potatoes, but I could taste the bacon! That was delicious. Service was fast - There was only one other table being waited on when we went. Our waters were filled consistently and finished plates were taken away promptly. The space has an "outdoor" area that was blocked off during the day. Perhaps in summer when its warmer they'll open the whole place up? Parking is up and down the street and all metered. read more

Definitely a hidden gem in the greater South Bay. Terrific, fresh fish-oriented cuisine, cool vibe/venue with patio seating, friendly and attentive service (especially Lilly!) and all at a reasonable price. Don't miss this one. read more

Fabulous experience! I never venture to this part of Redondo (almost Torrance) but zero regrets. We tried both the crab roll (Connecticut style) and the lobster roll (Connecticut style and added the caviar and crème fraiche). Personally, the crab was my favorite but the rest of the table preferred the lobster, so who's to say ‍ except that both were delicious! We also tried the tiger hamachi - solid flavors! The bread and garlic butter were filling and the oysters were fresh! The horseradish did the trick, delivering what felt like a shot of Novocain to the nose. Crème brûlée cheesecake also a showstopper. The service was top notch, super helpful and polite. The ambience is cute, perfect date spot or just catching up with old friends. We'll definitely go back! read more

Indoor and outdoor seating in this beach town made for such a relaxing evening. This place is consistently good every time we come! We started with raw oysters -- super fresh and buttery, absolutely delicious. The garlic parm Shrimp Focaccia was so flavorful and savory, and the Prime Rib (on a Monday!) was only $26.99 -- what a deal! Service was amazing from start to finish -- the hostess, waiter, and busser were all on point and friendly. Definitely one of our favorite go-to spots by the beach! read more

I had a very welcoming and nice experience as an 11:30am weekday Monday opening patron coming for the Monday Prime Rib served all day. Because it's Prime Rib and does take a long time to slow roast and cook, when I arrived, it was already ready to be served. They prepare it before opening. You know you're not getting "yesterday's leftovers" so to speak because they only offer Prime Rib on Monday. On Tuesday they do offer a french dip prime rib sandwich which they admit are limited to the remnants of Monday's Prime Rib and/or prepares on Monday in anticipation for Tuesday. It sounds like it's worth trying out on Tuesdays. The Monday Prime Rib is 10oz in size/weight and has minimal fat and in fact it's all edible, no tendons or bones either. It comes with nothing, no sides, so after tax and tip you're around $30 I'd recommend this and have it medium rare. It's herb crusted and tender. Parking is easy and there's free with unlimited no time limits (other than watch out for Street Cleaning days) if you're willing to walk. The service as friendly and fast. Because I ordered the Prime Rib and all they needed to do was carve a slice, my meal was served fresh and fast and it only took 30 minutes to dine. read more

Salt & Pearl is very, very good. I am writing this as an updated review. My earlier review can be found below. As you will see, I was torn about writing it and decided to go back to Salt & Pearl for dinner to give it another try. In retrospect, I probably jumped the gun on my first review. Food: I ordered oysters, Peruvian scallops, and wild Mexican white shrimp from the Crudo & Raw Bar menu as an appetizer, and the Maine seafood roll as my entree. The oysters were smaller East Coast oysters, and were fresh with a little bit of salinity and minerality that you get with East Coast oysters. The Peruvian scallops were also fresh and tasty. The menu says they are prepared in a habanero confit with toasted coconut, mango, and micro cilantro. I did not notice any heat from the habanero confit, but I found the shredded coconut to be a great complement to the scallops (providing some nice textural difference) and the mango added a touch of sweetness and acidity. (Note - The scallops are small, but again, very tasty.) My scallops did not come with an micro cilantro. The shrimp were good, but just a touched overcooked (shaped more like an O than a C and somewhat firm). However, I did like the brushed on olive oil with herbs, and the cocktail sauce was flavorful. Overall, the oysters, scallops, and shrimp were very satisfying. The star of the meal was the Maine seafood roll. You can choose to have either lobster or king crab. I chose lobster. It came with a generous portion of lobster, and the bread was nice and soft. The lobster was served in a nice, creamy mayonnaise sauce ... delicious. Maine lobster rolls are served cold and typically prepared with mayonnaise and celery (in contrast to the Connecticut lobster roll which is served warm and covered in butter ... which Salt & Pearl also offers). I didn't really notice the celery, and the mayonnaise sauce is generous. So if you like your Maine lobster roll to be creamy, then Salt & Pearl is for you. Service: I sat at the bar, and the bartender was very friendly and attentive. Bottom Line: I previously gave Salt & Pearl three stars. I am revising that to five stars. The oysters were good. The shrimp was okay. But the scallops and Maine seafood roll were great. *** PRIOR REVIEW *** I was torn about whether I should write this review. I visited Salt & Pearl over a year ago and ordered scallops and the fish and chips, which I vaguely recall as being very good. But I recently visited again for their brunch and was somewhat underwhelmed. So this review is just for my brunch experience. I will be visiting again soon for dinner and will update this accordingly. Food: I ordered their the eggs and smoked fish toast from the brunch menu. It was a simple dish of house-smoked salmon, scrambled eggs, and fried arugula on two pieces of buttered toast. The salmon had a hint of miso flavor and was plated as small chunks on the toast. I was hoping for something like gravlax (salt cured salmon with dill), but that was my misunderstanding and not theirs. The eggs were prepared American style (firmer compared to the custardy French style). The fried arugula was a nice touch, but served more like a garnish than a main component of the dish. Overall, the dish tasted fine, not great but also not bad. It was a little difficult to eat because both the salmon and eggs were in smaller pieces which fell off the toast. Service: My server was friendly and attentive. Bottom Like: I thought the eggs and smoked salmon toast was okay. Again, I am torn to write a review based on a single dish and will update when I visited again. read more

Stopped by for a quick happy hour and was greeted with excellent service and amazing ambiance. I started with a lovely house margarita & seared albacore for appetizer. The albacore was well cooked but could lacked flavor. I had the seafood chowder which absolutely hit the spot and fulfilled my seafood craving. Would definitely come back with friends or family. read more

DIVINE! We received a gift card over the holidays for this place. Passed by it so many times going to the other restaurants and am sad I've been missing out in this gem! We had 7:15 reservation, it was initially out in their heated patio but since it was raining I called to be placed inside. They accommodated us with no issues. Service was great! We had multiple staff come up and offer suggestions. The table next to us suggested the Garlic Shrimp (they got another one to go!).. SOO GOOD! I could've just ate that. It was heavenly and a MUST TRY. Miso Salmon was the best salmon dish I've had. The pairing of everything was delicious. The lobster Mac and cheese had plenty of lobster. The albacore was also tasty but would not re order. The vibe was very chill and romantic. Definitely a great date night or small group celebration spot. read more

There are many eateries on S Catalina Avenue in Redondo Beach. This one is slightly higher end and pricier than many other others, but they offer a great quality food and excellent service. We came for a pre-concert dinner and had time limitations, but they accommodated us extremely well. The grilled salmon was one of the best I have tasted; and it looked as nice as it tasted. I also ordered their seafood roll, and I chose the king crab, which was decent, but it was kind of a small roll. The restaurants very small and half of the seatings are out on the street. But it does have that beach town relaxed that classy atmosphere. I think it would be a very nice place for drinks as well. read more

Service: the service was pretty decent. We sat in the indoor/outdoor area and I really like the ambiance. Not too big of a restaurant. Had lunch with my husband over here and got the beet salad and the macadamia-encrusted sea bass with the spinach, and a Heineken zero. The food is fresh and has good flavors. I would definitely order the same thing again or try the salmon since the bass was a whopping 50 dollars lol. My husband got the albacore dish with an Arnold Palmer. I had a bite and it had a kick to it, but I liked my sea bass much better. The Arnold Palmers use Minute Maid lemonade, which I don't understand since Service: the service was pretty decent.

Great service. Super cute place. But the food just wasn't very good. The calamari was overly battered and not nearly fresh or hot enough, the marinara is so spicy it makes you unable to taste the calamari (which today was a good thing), and the wedge salad was good lettuce but drenched in a blue cheese that had something off about it. My friend's fish and chips looked way over battered and oddly dark, too. Service was great - can't say that enough. But I don't think I'd return. read more

There was a street fair going on when my girl and I found ourselves hungry and searching for a place to eat. We tried to give our business to two other restaurants in the area, but both said that their kitchens were closed between lunch and dinner. I was dumbfounded by this. This street fair was huge, and well attended. What business who is worth their salt, would close their kitchen and turn away business. Luckily for us Salt and Pearl seized this opportunity and snagged quite a few of us who had been turned away from other establishments, and I might add, to our benefit. We were comfortably seated in the street patio ( which came to being during the Covid pivot ) and promptly addressed by our polite server. We both ordered the smash burger, and before too long, they were placed before us. The burgers were a feast for the eyes as well as for the stomach. Very, very tasty. As I usually do, I ate my burger over the fries so the drippings fell onto the crispy potatoes. There's no better way. Yes, it's a bit on the steep side when you get the check, but not astronomical. Maybe just low orbit. You'll enjoy yourself. Quick Tip: The servers are friendly, happy, and well trained. Support their efforts. Give them the opportunity to not claim your tip on their income tax......as of this writing the BBB hasn't been signed by the president yet. read more

We celebrated my bf's birthday at Salt & Pearl last night and really enjoyed our meal. My favorite dish was the miso salmon.

We also tried the wasabi slaw, mushrooms, and chocolate mousse cake but those weren't my favorites. I loved the indoor/outdoor feel of the restaurant and how quant it was.

We enjoyed a very nice dinner at Salt & Pearl last night. We were seated outside on what was a beautiful breezy evening. The drinks we enjoyed were top notch (photos attached). My wife also tried a season cocktail that was some form of Margarita that she enjoyed. The oysters were very fresh as were the accoutrements. I did not notice any anchovies in our Caesar salad which was then only disappointment of the meal. I am from New England so I rarely have Maine lobster on the west coast, but these lobster rolls are very solid and the Parmesan fries are worth the upgrade. A tiny bit more butter would have been better but it wasn't a big enough deal for me to ask for it! Our server also good a fine job. She was very pleasant and efficient. The whole team worked well together from what I could see. We will definitely return! read more

Updated Review: After posting my original review, Mickey personally reached out to me. He took full responsibility for the confusion regarding the posted hours and explained that there had been an error. He also reviewed the security footage and clarified that the individuals who entered before us were guests who knew other diners, but not the restaurant staff. Mickey then kindly invited my husband and me to return, and we accepted. When we let him know we were in town and available at 7:30 PM, he immediately made a reservation for us--even before replying to my message. From the moment we walked in, the entire experience was exceptional--from the ambiance to the service, drinks and the food. A special thank you to Justin, Kenneth, and Tyler for making our evening so memorable. We will definitely be back! read more

Salt & Pearl is the first restaurant I've ever been to that forces you to give your credit card info when you make a reservation and then would charge you $10 if you miss your reservation. It's a nice, clean place with some outdoor seating. They allow for pets in the outdoor area. This place specializes in seafood. I got a crispy skin Scottish salmon and a side of mushrooms. The salmon came with a small half lemon and it was pretty good. The other items that came with it such as the lentils weren't as good as the salmon. The mushrooms were creamy and had an above average taste. The service was amiable. Our total bill for two people was $97.41 (includes tax and tip) read more

Very professional and knowledgeable and gave us suggestions. I had a delicious beet salad with pistachios which I loved. My husband had the seared albacore which he said was cooked perfectly and was seasoned well with spices.Our friends enjoyed their salmon and oysters. They had a smoky whiskey sour which looked like a small volcano in the middle of the table. Great presentation and they loved it! read more

I haven't seen my ride-or-die Cuzzo for a long minute and we were due for one of our brunch sessions! We usually meet halfway between our homes (she's about an hour drive away) but she decided to come through my hood instead. She let Hubbers and I decide where to go. Truth is, we were gonna go somewhere else, but Hubbers called an audible at the last minute and opted to come here instead. We got lucky and found parking a few feet away. We tried our luck by walking in (vs making reservations) but we were confident we were gonna get seated (we arrived sorta at a late-ish brunch-lunch hour.) As we hoped, we were seated immediately. It's a lot smaller than I expected, but the tables were spaced out enough so you're not running elbows with strangers. Our menus were given quickly as well as glasses of water. I'll admit we might have taken long to decide what to eat because we just got to talkin' first before looking through grub! Our server was incredibly patient, though. And it's a good thing there wasn't a wait! BRUSSEL SPROUTS: So this was my pick only because I've never had gochujang brussel sprouts. And what a difference it makes taste-wise. It wasn't strong or overwhelming, it really was mostly a hint, but noticeable, as with the bacon. Good starter. DOZEN OYSTERS: 3 of each: fat bastard, summer stone, Aphrodite and river gold. It's perfectly portioned since we all got to try one of each. Each had their own flavor characteristics. Personally, they didn't need the mignonette or the cocktail sauce. (I tried them anyway, but I liked the oysters as is.) The only teenee issue here? There were tiny bits of shell left post-shucking, so be mindful of that. If you're an oyster fiend, go for this. FRIED RHODE ISLAND CALAMARI: Crispy, good amount of batter, a bit on the salty side (but the cocktail sauce tamed that down.) But the salad that came with it is distracting - it was so good! It should be a side on its own! It's the dressing that makes it. This is one well-put together combo! CRISPY SKIN ICELANDIC SALMON: My choice for grub because I have never had a crispy arugula. (I know, that's a weird reason to have it, even more especially when I'm not really a fan of lentils.) I had hoped, though, that the sidekicks (lentils, sun dried tomatoes, red peppers and arugula) were also evenly portioned -the lentils dominated. But! Can't fault them on that, this is how they prep it - and they weren't bad either. The salmon skin was absolutely crispy and the fish was cooked buttery and flaky. I was surprised how much I enjoyed that. Hubbers opted for the Connecticut lobster roll (which I thought was kinda small for the price) and Cuzzo built her own omelette (which was done wrong the first time but was immediately fixed, so yay for that!) FOOD: 4. SERVICE: 3.75. VALUE: 3. Average at best for what you get. Some might think it's pricey, but the quality makes up for it. PARKING: Metered street only. $1.50/hr, maximum 4 hours. It can get busy during peak hours. Allocate some time for it. OVERALL: 3.5. Okay first run. A second stop is a good possibility since there are a few things in their menu I'd like to eventually try. Someday soon! read more
