    Pork belly tacos
    Noba N.

    I drove by this restaurant every Saturday after dropping my son off at his Japanese school and finally I had the opportunity to try it out! I am so good I went because everything served was delicious. They have house chips and dip which was amazing. The pork belly tacos were also delicious. The sauce was the winner. I went for early lunch so it was super quiet but I saw a stage so I can envision this place to be fun at night! I'm excited to try more of their foods the next time.

    All the appetizers!

    We went on Saturday night for a holiday party- and it was such a fun time!! We were able to see an 80s band after enjoying some delicious appetizers. The show was amazing, the food was delicious, and the service was great. It's nice to have somewhere with live music so close by.

    Great place for comedy and food. Service was great and the events are fun. I really like their drinks!

    I was on the fence about 3 or 4 stars Service: This is a highlight. I came in for lunch and the bartender was the only one in front of house. But he was awesome. Food service was super fast also. A major plus for limited lunch time Ambiance Actually a pretty welcoming interior. They moved and increased the size of the stage from its days as Hey19. For whatever reason , it seems so much more inviting , less dark Bar Chimay on tap. Happy days. Someone with good taste Food I ordered one of their sandwiches. It was totally fine, a very nice take on a traditional Philly cheesesteak BUT it didn't include fries. Not sure why I expected it, but no fries ... no chips... just two pickles. For the price they charge i made the erroneous assumption there would be a side. This is why I was leaning towards 3 stars. Not great value for money. But the service and the beer swayed me

    My second review and just had to do another one. This place from the service to the food and the drinks is excellent. Just hands down 5 stars every time I go.

    So this is our second time here, the first time was about a week ago for the Alfred Robles comedy show. That day I was amazed with the nachos I ordered so I decided to order them again. I also ordered the smoked brisket plate and upgraded the chips to tater tots thanks to our server Julia, who was great at paying attention to myself and wife all night. Their was a live show tonight and the music sounded awesome from the outside patio. Overall the food was great and the brisket was so good I took the leftovers home and plan to make some steak and eggs for breakfast! Our server gave us a run down of the comedians they have had at their venue and we will definitely be making the end our hangout spot in the future!!

    Came in on a Tuesday with a couple buddies. Staff was good and were good giving suggestions when asked questions about the menu which is always a good thing. They had Karaoke that night. So if you are willing you can get up and sing. Hopsaint IPA - Crispy and refreshing golden IPA that is very refreshing but yet packs a little punch of hops. Very good! Truffle Cheese Steak - Brisket, truffle cheese, onions, peppers and mushrooms. Sandwich was good but needs a sauce to bring it all together. Bread was a little dry but meat was cooked well and the mushrooms and cheese on top was great. If you are ever around the area give this place a try. Stay hungry my friends.

    Consistent, well priced, super staff MUST TRY THE BRISKET it's serious business. This place always has great food and will periodically add a few items which I'm always game to try because they have always exceeded expectations. They do also have fun things to do like comedy night, trivia night, various live music events and sports events. It has made it to my list of favorite spots in the South Bay.

    The End is your Dream Bar Part 2: Still Your Dream. Tonight we came for Trivia Night. Mind you, a Wednesday night and the place is PACKED. Half price wine bottles on Wednesday because it's the house of dreams. Food keeps on hitting. Wings, unbelievable. Big ole fat juicy arm flaps. Smoked for hours and fried just slightly to taste. Spicy bbq is thee flavor. Spaghetti and Meatballs, bomb. Fire meatballs if you want just the app. And then the Ahi Tacos, *chefs kiss emoji*. Not gonna lie, we were super skeptical on the Ahi and it was the best thing we ate tonight. I wish other places didn't exist so I could go to The End everyday. Oh yeah, and Trivia was awesome and a ton of fun.

    I've had this place on my South Bay eats bookmarks for a while. Was down in the area and decided to check it out. Lots of screens. It was pretty quiet but it was also 12:30. I had the truffle Philly and I can say holy sh*t. It is legit!! The roll was spot on. I'll be back when I'm in the area again

    Ahi tacos
    Amanda A.

    I came here to say goodbye to a former coworker who was moving away. It's a little hole in the wall and great place to come to if you're looking to hang out and listen to live music. They have small bands and musicians come out and perform. Their food is delicious. I like their ahi tacos and mushroom pizza as well as buffalo and barbecue wings. I don't drink so I can't speak on alcohol. The servers were nice. I did see one of the guys who had my tacos did not know that I ordered the tacos and had to ask 2 different servers who ordered the tacos. I noticed there was a communication break but it didn't affect the food quality and the food wasn't cold. I think this is a nice little place to go to if you're looking to listen to great music and have a bite or two. Oh and to drink.

    Beer me. Chimay for the Mr. and IPA for the meeee!

    This is The End, beautiful friend... We were looking to enjoy some cold beer and maybe a little football too. Thursday evening wasn't at all busy - bar seating was full but lots of available tables. Austin greeted us and we settled on an IPA and Chimay Triple as we perused the menu and talked about Summertime barbeque. My guy has an incredible barbecue talent. His bbq rubs in my opinion, should be bottled and sold and he taught me there is much more to bbq sauce than what can be bought in bottles. At the time we met, silver skin wasn't in my vocabulary and I learned a good smoking would produce a layer of beautiful pink flesh that to this day I judge all other barbecue. Every summer he invites his crew over for summer slow roasted apple or cherry wood smoked barbecue ribs, tri-tip and brisket that's always rubbed with his custom spices and sauces hand blended for their diverse palates; mild to spicy and one special sauce made with the Carolina Reaper peppers he grows in his container garden. Yup, he's the bbq king in my world. The End has a nifty menu, something for everyone and we were told they take pride in their barbecue. We started with the tomato soup that was good but much better with a hearty sprinkle of S and P. The goat cheese bruschetta was tasty but I couldn't help but think it would have been amazing if the topping didn't appear over marinated. Our mains were the Garlic Cream pizza (Austin's suggestion) and the brisket with a side of fresh house made coleslaw. The pizza was garlicky creamy yumminess - but note if you prefer pizza with veg and/or protein, I'd recommend ordering something else. Perfect size for one, very tasty and for sure consuming this will ensure the vampires stay away. The brisket was not a hit tonight. Good but not smokey pink good and disappointing served with refrigerator cold barbecue sauce. Equally disappointing was the coleslaw. It was super fresh and shredded to perfection but it lacked the creamy sweet, celery seed vinegary dressing that makes it wonderful. Terrific for beer and lots of options for eats. I hear the cover bands are super entertaining - a good reason to visit again.

    Happy Hour Nachos

    The food was really good. Happy hour until 6pm. $6 well drinks and 10 house cocktails on their menu. Service is great as well, family owned and operated.

    Not worth it, don't waste your time.

    Ask the Community - The End

    What Is The End Torrance Customer Service Number?

    Hi, have you upgraded your PA system?

    Yes. It is state of the art for small venues. One of the best.

    What time is the happy hour?

    I was browsing through some of the photos and a few photos of the menu show the happy hours plus specials. Here is one photo for your review. https://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/the-end-torrance-2?select=2ILtNRTEjBku7s5rDn6wlA

    Is there a certain time your live music starts?

    Usually around 8p.

    What time does the kitchen close for the night?

    Hello Teresa. Generally, we close the kitchen at 10 Sun-w. Thursdays 10:30, Friday and Saturday 11:30. This is a general guideline. Sometimes we will keep it open a bit later if we have the staff and the business to support it. Sometimes earlier… 

    Kids allowed? Or 21 over only?

    So yes, kids are allowed. But no, not during live music or entertainment, which is Friday, Saturday, and Monday after 9.

    Do you guys have happy hour?

    We do! M-F 3:30pm-6pm. We’ll see you here.

    This came up as a NYG-football-friendly place. Is this correct? I'm looking for a place to watch the MNF game against Dallas.

    Hello Liz. We are friendly to all fans and have plenty of Giant fans that come in. See you tonight!

    My friends and I are looking for a bar with a weekly trivia night. Is this the place?

    Yes it is! Every Wednesday, 7-9! C’mon down!

    I tried to ask another question, but it wouldn't let me for some reason. I wanted to know if you are open now and if so, until what time? I tried calling, but the mail box was full. Thank you!

    We have many kinds, but mostly 80 & 90 cover bands as well as classic rock cover bands. Some originals, too. Follow us on Instagram @theendofsouthbay or on our facebook page Bar/Lounge The End

    Is there outdoor dining right now?

    No Sir! Not sure we'll ever get approved, but we'll keep working on it. Until then, you can enjoy us inside!

    On a hot August night (Neil Diamond fans, you know the reference), my wife and I met another couple…read morein Riviera Village, and The Craftsman was the destination of choice. Apparently, everyone else in the South Bay had the same idea because the place was absolutely humming. Parking can sometimes be a challenge, just be patient. Fortunately, we had reservations and were quickly seated in a roomy table tucked away in the back corner. It turned out to be prime real estate: enough privacy for conversation, but still a great vantage point to take in the entire restaurant. The patio out front might be even better, though, if you're into people-watching. Catalina Avenue on a Friday night offers no shortage of entertainment. But for our group, this table was perfect. The interior has a warm, industrial feel, exposed brick, dark wood, metal accents, garage-style doors, and televisions scattered throughout. Oddly, the Dodgers game wasn't on. Maybe they don't get SportsNet LA. I never bothered to ask because the conversation at our table was far more enjoyable. Let's address the elephant in the room: Friday-night service. The place was packed, and our server was clearly running a marathon. He's usually stationed behind the bar, sports a sleeve of tattoos, looks super fit, and carries a permanent smile. He worked hard all evening, but there were some significant stretches where my Ikasu Ikasu West Coast IPA ($11) sat empty with no rescue in sight. A man can only stare sadly at an empty pint glass for so long. We started with the poutine fries, crispy fries loaded with gravy, skirt steak, mornay sauce, Gruyère, and green onions. They were outstanding and disappeared so quickly that I remembered to take a photo only after the massacre had already occurred, see my picture, LOL. Our server redeemed himself with his entrée recommendation: The Philly. Thinly sliced ribeye, grilled onions, sweet and hot peppers, house sauce, all piled into a sesame roll. It was fantastic, messy, savory, and exactly what you want from a cheesesteak. My wife paired a Harmonia Mango Wheat ($11) with the Blue Cheese Avocado Burger ($20), a hefty seven-ounce burger topped with melted blue cheese, grilled onions, avocado, applewood bacon, and arugula. She was a happy camper. Our friends split the same burger and also ordered the hummus appetizer, adding filet mignon on top. Excellent call, I snuck a few bites! To their credit, at the end of the evening our server came back to the table, apologized for the pacing, and made amends with a complimentary Crafted Cookie: a warm chocolate-chip cookie topped with vanilla ice cream. At the end of the day, restaurants are about more than perfect timing and topped-off beers. They're about sharing stories, laughing with friends, and breaking bread with people you enjoy being around. The service had its ups and downs, but the food was solid, the atmosphere lively, and Riviera Village on a summer Friday night is hard to beat.

There are so many beers on tap that it's hard to keep count, and that's definitely not a bad thing. I'm partial to West Coast IPAs, and they have several excellent options, but the selection doesn't stop there. You'll find New England IPAs, porters, stouts, and everything in between. One of my personal favorites is the Milagro Nitro Stout. They even have "flavored water" like Modelo for those with questionable taste in beer. The atmosphere is welcoming and relaxed. It's the kind of place where you can bring your kids, meet friends, or simply unwind after work. The background music is usually classic rock played at a reasonable volume, so you can actually hold a conversation. Large TVs above the bar typically have sports on, adding to the laid-back vibe. The service is another reason I keep coming back. Both bartenders are absolute class acts--friendly, knowledgeable, and genuinely passionate about the beer they serve. Whether you're a craft beer veteran or someone trying something new, they make you feel welcome and are always happy to offer recommendations. The food deserves recognition as well. I've tried a variety of menu items over multiple visits and haven't been disappointed. In fact, I'm genuinely surprised when I see complaints about the food on Yelp. It's good bar food done right, not a gourmet restaurant pretending to be something it's not. Needless to say, I'll be back. Actually, I already have been--many times. If you're looking for great beer, great people, a comfortable atmosphere, and solid food in Redondo Beach, this place is well worth a visit.

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.
