    Oily on almost all visits.

    I used to only visit for their lunch special which was around 13 more or less. A choice of pasta, 2 bread sticks and a side. Isn't bad but kitchen staff occasionally has a nasty habit of cutting your portions where I had to send items back for a redo. One of their waiters who brought out my order even admits it seemed a little light as he brought it back to kitchen. It became a regular thing that portions aren't consistent every other visit and very tiring. Folks are friendly enough and never had an issue there, but portions was always a hassle to constantly be disappointed in. I took a few photos to prove my point. Sometimes it arrives as it should and other times it falls flat. Very greasy too at the bottom of bowl. I ordered the extra chicken on top of pasta and thought it would've came grilled. I asked the staff I don't want anything burnt on the chicken and they all looked at me completely blank. Was confused why they all hesitated to respond and one replied, "Don't worry about it. It won't come burnt." Well, he's right because it came as precooked cold dices like the ones from the grocery store! Check out the photos for yourself and avoid paying for this scam. Added another pic of the grilled chicken which is their most expensive lunch special. 14 or 15 usd and the portion was ridiculous. Please check for yourself and maybe lunch specials aren't their specialty.

    Tri tip special
    Tony F.

    The Stimulus Package family meal is an unbeatable best deal in town $43.99 that includes: Tri tips or chicken, garden salad, pizza with 2 toppings, and breadsticks. This special deal from the pandemic days is not on the menu and they happily provide. We get this all the time. The service is always prompt and courteous, and the location is spacious and clean. We had a holiday party where we took over a few tables and they were good to help making it happen. Important tip: join or rejoin their loyalty program. The old card based system was messy, and the new phone number based system is easy and highly recommended! You accumulate points quickly, today, I got a $10 off, sweet!

    Ate here for Mother's Day with my family. We ordered our food, then went to go get drinks, and I saw both ice machines were covered in mold, visible mold all the way to the end of the plastic. This shows that they do not ever clean their ice machines. We made a complaint to the front desk and swapped out our plastic cups for water bottles. They did nothing even let about 25 people still get ice and drink mold and bacteria. I got up to take these pictures and videos and then manager approached me asking what was wrong and I told him this is unacceptable and it would make somebody really fucking sick. Now they're all attempting to wipe it clean when the whole thing needs replaced. EAT AT HOME it's the safest.

    Tri Tip* & Baby Back Pork Ribs*
    Marco R.

    3.75* Went here for dinner while visiting family out in the South Bay. This was given as an option along with 2 other favorites from childhood. Decided to go here because I've never been and wasn't familiar. This place is very interesting and unique to some degree. It gives very much a family atmosphere, come in, sit down, and enjoy your meal. While also giving off fast casual, eat your meal and be on your way type vibes. So, that threw me off a bit. You come in look at the menu, order your food, take your number, and find a seat. Again, the atmosphere is fighting itself. I suggest that you look at the menu online prior to going. Once you're there, standing in line, and other people around you waiting for you to order, and they know what they want, but you don't is pressure. So, you let them go ahead but it's your first time so you're still overwhelmed but you also don't want to just let everyone else go ahead. So, it was decided to order a family style dinner. We decided on the salad, tri-tip, mashed potatoes, pesto pasta, and bread sticks. I also ordered a rack of baby back ribs because I was in the mood for those. Overall, it was a nice meal. Everything tasted good. My personal least favorite item was the mashed potatoes. They were fine, but I bit on the dry side. Maybe reheated for service. My favorite item was the pear, arugula, and Gorgonzola cheese salad. The proteins were good. I'm not a pasta fan but the pasta people at the table were satisfied with it. Overall, knowing what I know now I'd definitely go back and try some different items. Not a bad experience, but a learning experience.

    Plenty of parking. Close to tons of stores and places. Friendly staff. Fresh food. Relatively low pricing. Would recommend. Just don't sit outside. So many bugs flying around. Tri tip and chicken breast. Petite portion Tri tip and ribs Ribs and grilled chicken Roasted veggies

    Michael Russell with a BBQ chicken sandwich and roasted vegetables!

    Walked in and had a nice young lady to take my order. At this restaurant you order first and pay. Then you get your drinks, silverware, and sit down. For lunch, I had a BBQ chicken sandwich with roasted vegetables. You get to pick one side with the sandwich. I then walked to the back to get my drink, which was a Diet Coke. I got silverware, napkins and sat down at a nice booth. The ambience of the restaurant is really nice. It's a large restaurant and plenty of space to get a table or booth. The food came out very quickly, and I was amazed with the presentation sandwich and how it tastes. It was delicious. The employees were all very friendly. I would recommend Stonefire Grill Torrance

    Superfood Fiesta Bowl
    Harmonie T.

    Though I probably only pop in once or twice a year, I do enjoy Stonefire Grill. For this Torrance location, I would sometimes come here with the family and order the big meals. I used to visit the Lakewood location a little more frequently when the Roasted Cauliflower Pita was still on the menu. It was my favorite thing to order! Sadly, it was removed and my vegan options were reduced. That said, there are still some solid vegan options marked on the menu (hello Cartwheel Salad!) and vegetarian options that can easily be veganized. One of my favorite things to get here is the Superfood Fiesta Bowl. it's a chopped salad with quinoa, kale, black beans, roasted chickpeas, red cabbage, roasted corn, red onion, tomato, cilantro, and topped with guacamole. It also comes with tortilla chips. Usually it comes with and sriracha ranch but I like to swap it out for chili lime vinaigrette. The personal size is fills me up with a little bit for a snack-sized leftovers. Love all the colors in here too! https://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/stonefire-grill-torrance-4?select=pPpVLnS0FMT6OFwS1DCLRQ&userid=53dkR4-xyhjsCVHfrwiGaQ During my last visit, the younger staff seemed to be unsure how to answer some of my questions and required a bit of guidance on how to provide solutions. But I don't fault them at all for that because they were still polite. Later, another gentleman who may have been a manager came to check on us later during the meal to make sure we were happy with our meal. I appreciate the great service :)

    Caesar Salad
    jc c.

    Carry out down to a science. We ordered the two whole tri tip combo which included breadsticks and Caesar salad. It was approx $110.00 and able to feed 6. I would say that it was about right for portions and price for six ppl. I was impressed by the Carry out system they had in place. Really dialed in and professional. Food was fresh and the hot food items were still hot. As to the complaints about tri tip, keep in mind that tri tip generally is a leaner cut than say a ribeye with rich marbling. Hence the chew is going to be meatier. If you want softer texture u will have to go with rare or medium rare at most. We got medium and it was good for our family. (I prefer medium rare but my family likes medium well so we compromised.) In conclusion. The service was great. The price to value was great. And the quality of the food was great. Is it fine dining? No, but that is not what this restaurant is supposed to be. Casual food for the fam and if they continue to keep up the professional service we will be back.

    I can't believe our family has been coming to this location since 2020 and I hadn't done a review given it's our favorite place to go to after visiting the South Coast Botanic Garden. Easy parking, clean facilities, friendly and helpful staff, big selection of food for the whole family, fresh and good quality ingredients, and good portion sizes make this Stone Fire Grill location a must try wether you're a local or visiting the area. Kelly, who was the manager during our last visit on 3/1/26 was remarkable with our family and all other customers and staff even though they were very busy for Sunday dinner. Now stop reading and go try their delicious food!

    Order upon entering

    Still bomb!! The food has not changed. The manager Willie came over and asked how the food was and I told him...still without a doubt, the best bbq chicken breast out there! And please make sure to get extra sauce on the side...you're welcome! The service was excellent from the time we walked in. The environment was clean and I noticed staff immediately cleaned/cleared tables. We ordered from their lunch specials. We both ordered the bbq chicken breast, because we couldn't resist. For sides, we got the stone fire beans and the roasted vegetables, plus you get two breadsticks. Pro tip: Put some of that bbq sauce in the beans! Again, you're welcome! Lunch portions are great, fairly priced, and we were definitely filled. This place is great for a date night or even time with the family and they have big tables to accommodate larger parties.

    What's the wait time for the food to come out after paying?

    Like any restaurant, it depends on the crowd. But usually in my experience, even if busy, the wait is rarely over 15 minutes

    Is there an outdoor seating area to eat? Do you take reservations for a group of 9?

    Yes, we do have a small outdoor patio. We do not take reservations at this time.

    Does this location still have their Lunch Specials?

    Hi Terry - Unfortunately we've discontinued our Lunch Specials but hope to bring them back in the future.

    Where is the location? I need cross streets.

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!

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.

My wife and I had an enjoyable breakfast experience, tasting some unique dishes that are worth coming in for. We had a real early errand in the Lomita area, so wanted to take advantage by trying a different breakfast place. They have a really informative website, explaining the owning family's participation and how some of their food is sourced. It's a brunch place (open from 8 am to 2/3 pm, Tu-Su), so needed to wait a bit outside (street parking only, found one hour free parking right in front since coming so early). Menus are available at the front counter, and you place and pay (clover) for your order first. The food came out soon after, delivered to your table. There is a self-serve water jug in the same area as take-as-you-need take-out containers (also saw a self-serve costco-size plastic wrap box for wrapping...such a Korean thing to do). Utensils and napkins are available at the table to take for need. I really like places like this that have optimized the service experience, getting what you need without having to track someone down. Forking Around's Filipino Burrito ($18.95) - a collab with the food influencer 'Forking Around' to put into a breakfast burrito, many common ingredients from a Filipino breakfast. This includes egg, garlic fried rice as base and a vegetable lumpia with longanisa pieces, wrapped in a good flour tortilla. Sides were both a cilantro lime crema and a well made sawsawan. The sausage was not too sweet nor too red (though perhaps a bit too meatloaf-like), and the lumpia in the burrito worked for me. Korean Breakfast with bulgogi and steamed rice ($19.95) - it was served in a cast-iron skillet and the pan had been heated up greatly...super hot when served and still warm by the time we left. The flavor of the bulgogi was solid, and I loved the presentation. Taco Truck Burrito ($17.95) - korean-style al pastor pork, with pineapple and kimchi fried rice and egg. It was good....forgot to ask if the meat was really cooked on a vertical rotisserie. Came with a good chipotle salsa and lime crema. We were done in 30 minutes, from entry to exit. It wasn't too busy, so asked the front-of-house lead where the longanisa sausage and lumpia were made...she stated that it was all in-house. That's really impressive, making an ingredient from scratch that is only used in one dish. This and the elegant presentation and longevity really shows that the entire team behind bites & bashes cafe (catering) knows what they are doing.

I got there around little after noon, and only had a five minute wait myself. (Apparently, they were open late once upon a time, but important to keep in-mind they close at 3p these days.) My server was helpful, friendly and efficient. Atmosphere was everything I'd want in a diner. A great choice when one is remotely in the area!

    Local Kitchen is a great place to have drinks after work or a great meal. They have a full bar and…read morecan make you anything you want, the bartenders are great. But we love to eat there. 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.

The menu leans into hearty, well‑executed tavern classics with a local twist. Portions are generous, flavors are bold, and everything comes out looking delicious. Whether it's their burgers, salads, or comfort‑leaning entrées, the dishes feel thoughtfully put together rather than rushed. It's the type of spot where you can order something simple and still be pleasantly surprised by how good it is. Service is friendly, attentive, and laid‑back, very Old Town Torrance energy. Staff checks in frequently, food comes out in good time, and they keep the vibe easygoing. You feel taken care of without feeling pressured, which is exactly what you want in a neighborhood tavern. This place has that relaxed, modern‑casual feel that makes it easy to settle in. It's lively during peak hours but never chaotic, and the mix of locals gives it a welcoming, community feel. Great spot for catching a game or sport via the many TV screens they have, or perhaps a casual night out, a chill date, or a weekend bite with friends. Miguel C.

Scrambled eggs 5 stars, no complaints, Bacon 4 stars, I've had better, not bad. They have a green salsa if you ask for it, Service 4 stars was good enough Ambiance 4.5 stars, had a good vibe, big open place, parking is behind the front with ample spaces. Overall 4 stars, will go back and try something else.

    Some of the worst customer service ever from everyone working inside the restaurant. The woman in…read morethe front who seats people is miles ahead in customer service than anyone inside. She was amazing. All 3 tables around us got their food before us. All 3 tables had to send back their food because it was either wrong or incorrect. Place looks well staffed but everyone seems miserable aside from the woman outside. Our food was also wrong. Out of 4 dishes 2 of them were wrong. If you order anything sweet, food or drink, expect heavy amounts of syrup. Not homemade syrups. Maybe hersheys or maybe wal mart brand. Not sure. Very synthetic. Hey at least the food looks great. The ambiance is great. The service is bad. The wait time is even worse. Waiting for a table is understandable. Waiting an hour for your food after being seated is not. Does not help when the server is rolling her eyes the whole time, and with an angry face the entire time. She was like that when we walked in so i know it wasnt us. Parking: 0/10 Wait time: 0/10 Service inside: 0/10 Service outside: 11/10 Food look: 10/10 Food taste: 3/10 Drink look: 10/10 Drink taste: 0/10 Also the table next to us which was a small group spent their entire time talking about how bad th service and food is. Once we were served we tried to form our own opinion. Unfortunately it was identical. Very dissapointed

    This is a hidden gem in Lomita, located in a small shopping center. The inside is a calming vibe,…read morelooks upscale, very nice! The food was great! It was a nice presentation and full experience. We enjoyed the cotton candy wagyu, prior to having our tasty ribeye with the truffle potatoes. Ending dinner with crème brûlée cheesecake, matcha parfait and some vanilla ice cream. I'd definitely recommend everyone to try the cotton candy wagyu, it was a fun, tasty bite. The ribeye was amazing, flavorful and just the right size. The truffle potatoes were shared, which means it was a generous portion. I could have eaten it all by myself of how tasty they were-lol. The service was great, from host to servers. Very friendly and polite. Plenty of parking is available considering it's in a small shopping center. I'm not much of an alcohol drinker, however notice they had a nice bar, with hooks for the ladies to store their purse while there. Overall, a nice place to enjoy a tasty meal!

    The Food Library was an interesting experience, and one that left me a bit conflicted…read more The service was excellent from start to finish. The dining room is relatively small, with roughly 10 to 15 tables, and the two employees working the floor were hustling all evening and did a genuinely nice job taking care of everyone. The food itself was solid. The standout dish of the night was actually the grilled asparagus, which came with a soy-based preparation that was absolutely outstanding, perfectly tender and cooked just right. The wedge salad was also very good, and both the 16oz ribeye@$86, and the 8oz filet mignon @$76 were well prepared and enjoyable. Where things became more complicated for me was the overall value proposition. The prices are undeniably steep, especially for Lomita. Whenever I dine somewhere upscale, I inevitably ask myself whether, for the same money, I would have rather gone somewhere else. In this case, the answer was yes. I was also a bit disappointed to discover that there is no full bar. The restaurant seems to steer guests toward wine and sake, with only a handful of beer options available. Unfortunately, the first two beers I ordered, an IPA and then a Modelo, both on the menu, both out of stock, which certainly didn't help my overall impression. The dining room itself felt somewhat drab, all black walls, and lacked the refinement that I would expect at this price point. Dark walls and a crystal chandelier create an interesting contrast, but small details stood out for the wrong reasons. For example, I noticed exposed holes in the bar where a purse hook or latch had apparently been relocated. It may seem minor, but details like that matter when you're charging premium prices. At the end of the night, my wife and I walked out more than $300 lighter. While the food was undeniably good and the service was attentive, the experience simply didn't feel like a $300 evening to us. Overall, The Food Library delivers quality food and hardworking service, but for the price, I left wishing the atmosphere and overall experience matched the bill a bit more closely.

    My family and I have come to this brewery many times to celebrate birthdays and special occasions…read more Unfortunately, over the past couple visits, I've noticed the customer service has steadily declined. It feels like the staff is more concerned with getting out exactly at closing time than making guests feel welcomed and valued. Our last visit on 06/25/2026 was, by far, the worst experience we've ever had here. We were celebrating my stepdaughter's birthday with a large group. As closing time approached, one of our family members still had a nearly full beer. Without any warning or politely letting us know it was time to finish up, a tall white male employee (who refused to provide his name when asked) simply walked up and took the beer off the table. What made it even more frustrating was that there were other tables around us with guests who also had drinks, yet our party was the only one singled out. To make matters worse, we had brought a birthday cake to celebrate. We politely asked another short female employee for a few plastic plates and utensils so we could cut the cake before leaving. We were told no because they were closing. This has never been an issue during our previous birthday celebrations here. These were disposable plastic plates and utensils that would have gone straight into the trash, so refusing such a simple request came across as pure unwillingness to provide basic customer service. I spent 10 years working in the food and hospitality industry before starting my current career, so I understand exactly what closing a restaurant or brewery entails. I know employees want to leave on time, but I also know that providing good customer service until the last guest leaves is part of the job. If customers need to wrap things up, there is a respectful way to communicate that. You don't take someone's drink without warning, and you don't refuse a simple request that would have taken less than a minute. Everyone in our party left upset and disappointed. It was honestly embarrassing to watch employees treat loyal customers this way. This brewery used to be our go-to place for birthdays, but after this experience, we will not be returning. I rarely write negative reviews because I understand everyone has bad days. However, this experience was unacceptable. I sincerely hope management addresses the lack of hospitality and provides better customer service training, because the employees working that evening did not represent the level of service that keeps loyal customers coming back. Both the female worker with tattoos and piercings and the tall male were extremely rude when confronted. If you choose to visit, just be aware that if you're there close to closing time, your experience may depend more on how quickly the staff wants to leave than on making you feel like a valued guest.
