    FILET MIGNON LOMO SALTADO
    Joann C.

    Dine in LA menu is an excellent value and lets you try variety of dishes. Everything we ordered tasted amazing--the standouts were the scallops, burrata, and branzino! It would have been a 5 star rating but a star was knocked off because of service. It wasn't bad, but they kept coming by when we said we were waiting for more people to show up (we prefer to order when our entire party was present) and they weren't aware who ordered what, and pacing was off. One person was still eating their entree and they just plopped down our desserts. It would be nice to ask if we were ready for our dessert. Overall felt rushed. Nice ambiance, seems like a nice cozy place to come back when the weather is cooler. We weren't aware that there is automatic gratuity (perhaps because our group was 6 person?)

    Cocktails!

    Service: Friendly, prompt, attentive. Ambience: Lively, well lit but not bright which is how I like it. Food: Oh the food.......so very good. Filet Mignon risotto and lamb skewers. The meat was marinated well and oh so tender, both the steak and the lamb. The drinks were delicious and really interesting. I had one called "save the bees", I believe, a bourbon based cocktail and had bee pollen sprinkled on top as a garnish. It was fantastic! I'll have to return and try a few more items to be sure but if everything else is prepared as well, this place is great!

    We came for Dine LA dinner last night. It was $45 for select items on their menu. (They did not offer Happy Hour since they were offering Dine LA menu.) I enjoyed everything that I ordered, from the generous portion of mussels, the crispy whole branzino, and the crème brûlée. My husband also had the mussels, the lamb shank, and rice pudding. He did not care for the lamb shank. He said it was tender, but would have preferred a different sauce. He also wishes that he got the crème brûlée instead. Our server was ok, but seemed rushed. There was a lot of free 2-hour parking when we arrived for an early meal at 4:30 pm. If there were more entree offerings during Dine LA, I'd go back again. But I didn't see anything else that I'd be interested in trying. The restaurant is nice inside with spacious modern interior.

    Stopped in before a movie and happened to catch their Happy Hour. I'm vegan, so I ordered the hummus plate, guac and chips, and fries. Everything was tasty, though the portions were on the smaller side. The service was a bit unusual. It doesn't seem like you get a dedicated server --whoever walks by handles whatever you need. It made things a little confusing since the person who took our drink order never returned, and we ended up flagging down different staff members for the rest of our visit. My wine also took quite a while to arrive, even though we were seated at the bar and I noticed other drinks going out first. It may have just been an off night. The vibe is cute, and the shared parking with the cinema makes it a convenient stop before a movie.

    We love Nomad, especially during Dine LA where we get to enjoy a 3-course meal at a set price. By making it a date night, we get to experience 6 different items with flavors and ingredients from different parts of the world. My favorite today was the sea bass, it was beautifully served, raw, I was very pleasantly surprised. I almost asked for chopsticks until my wife reminded me this is a Mediterranean dish. I forked it and it was amazing, fresh and tasty, highly recommended! The short ribs is usually favorite, it came out nicely, falling off the bones, only thing was the sauce was a bit salty for me. I wish there was a side of rice or bread, ha ha. May be I will ask the polenta to be in the side in the future. My wife had the Hummus Meeze board, we loved everything on it and wish there was a bit more bread to help us finish every bit. She also had the filet mignon Loma Saltados, it was also deliciously done. For dessert, we shared crème brûlée and tiramisu. Both were yummy and gone in no time.

    Charred Broccoli with feta. So good!

    I've been wanting to come here for a while and finally decided to visit yesterday. The staff was incredibly friendly and welcoming. It was a little hard to find the entrance, but you enter through the patio area. The interior is very chic. It feels like Tulum vibes. Now, for the important part, the food. I ordered the crispy Branzino and a side of charred broccoli. I will be honest and say the presentation was a little underwhelming however, the taste was incredible! I literally ate everything! It was the best meal I've had in a while. I also had a spicy Mezcal with aloe cocktail, very good. The bartender came to my table personally and gave me this recommendation which I thought was really cool. I believe this cocktail will be on their Spring menu fyi. Overall, a great experience. I'm really looking forward to coming back to order the exact same thing. Lol.

    Global spot that is a hidden gem. Came here for brunch with my family and we made a reservation online in advance. It's located by the movie theater and there was plenty of parking. Indoor and outdoor seating available. Our waitress was friendly and we were able to promptly place our orders. My boyfriend and I split the chimichurri steak and eggs and the French toast. My sister ordered bacon on the side for her French toast (extra cost) while my mom had the enchiladas. They're vegan friendly and my dad had the Mediterranean kebab which was vegan. We all split the mussels to start as well.

    Parking in the nearby garage but finding the entrance isn't straight forward if you haven't been here before. Nice ambiance (open architecture) and pretty prompt service but the kitchen took forever (like closer to 45 minutes) and the place isn't slammed nor even that full. Good food (tried the lamb kebab and shrimp) but pretty pricey. Was going to order desert but she brought the check so fine. They are not very interested in our custom.

    My friend and I decided to try Nomad for dinner tonight. The restaurant is modern and decorated very well. They were serving their regular menu plus a prix fixe menu for DineLA week. I decided to try the prix fixe - Course 1 - Burrata & Pistachio Pesto, Course 2 - Filet Mignon Lomo Saltado, Course 3 - Creme Brulee. My friend had the Nomad Hummus and Grilled Loin of Lamb. Our waitress was super friendly and helpful. The food was flavorful and great quality. Initially, I was going to order the Balsamic Braised Short Ribs, but unfortunately, they had run out. The filet and lamb were both tender, juicy, and flavorful. The Creme Brûlée was excellent, though I would have wanted a thinner burnt sugar layer. It was still so good. Scott, the owner, came to our table to chat with us and ask us about the food and how we found them. He was friendly and grateful for our patronage. He shared how he came up with the concept of the restaurant. We really enjoyed the conversation. I definitely will return because there were so many other items on the menu that I would like to try in the future.

    Loved the spaghetti & grilled shrimp entree! My co-worker & I both ordered this, both of our shrimps were cooked PERFECTLY! I am very picky about my shrimp and hate having it over cooked. These were not, so tasty! I loved the flavor of the pasta too. My co-worker thought it was a bit too salty but I didn't think so. I do like stronger flavors. I would go back for this dish.

    TIRAMISU
    Kelly S.

    Ordered two of the tiramisu as takeout ($14 EACH) and their portion size was incredibly small. Maybe 2 x 2 x 2 inches for $14 EACH. Yikes. If the piece was generous or even just a decent size, that would be fine... but at this price point I'm astounded and very disappointed. So puny it was pathetic. Will never order from here again ... taste was mediocre too, kinda tasted like it went bad.

However, since I've been back a few times, the consistency and care is extremely lacking. I always order the chicken caesar sandwich which comes as a wrap (I love this). It has always come in "wrap" form, despite falling apart quite a bit since the first time, but when I ordered it tonight it came in taco form with a wrap on top of the "taco". Much more difficult to eat, and it was clear there was no/minimal dressing within the sandwich. I also found a chicken bone in my meal, which makes me wonder about the standards staff are held to. I would not be writing this review if not for the chicken bone (picture attached), as the food is quite good and the staff gives exceptional service. Though the flavors in the food are nothing short of incredible (especially the sauce that comes with the Caesar sando) I am concerned about the care/storage of the food placed for customer consumption.

I also really enjoyed the Greek salad, which was super fresh and loaded with crisp veggies and quality ingredients. It paired perfectly with the chicken. Another highlight was the service. Cecilia, the manager, was incredibly friendly and helpful, making the whole experience feel welcoming and personal. You can tell they genuinely care about their customers.

Literally everything we ordered exceeded out expectations. - The Falafel sliders are the most ordered item for a reason.

It was that damn good. - The crispy bread sounds pretty straight forward but it was also a standout. High quality bread all nice and toasty paired with this incredible olive-infused butter. - The Tunisian bruschetta almost got ordered twice as well. The tuna was phenomenal and makes for a great shared plate. I'm a sucker for any dish with an egg on it so will 100% be ordered this next time we stop in. Unfortunately, we didn't get a chance to order the lamb meatballs nor the tounsi brik. But I'm very eager to stop back in and give those a try. Also, major shout out to the staff. The service was absolutely incredible. CJ was our main server but literally every staff member that we interacted with was kind to our son, kind to our dog and kind to us.

    Al Hamra Kabob Grill is a restaurant run by a Pakistani owner, specializing in kebabs and grilled…read moremeats inspired by Middle Eastern and Mediterranean cuisine. The menu also features traditional Pakistani, Persian, and Arabic dishes, such as Beef Nihari and Haleem. After several visits, here are my thoughts on some of their grilled meats and desserts. Beef Kofta - 3/5. The kofta was a bit dry and tough. I wish it had more fat and seasoning to make it juicier and more flavorful. The grilling is also somewhat inconsistent--sometimes the kofta comes out beautifully browned, while other times it's over-charred. Grilled Fish - 4/5. This is easily my favorite item on the menu and, in my opinion, their best dish. The fish is seasoned just enough to enhance its natural flavor without overpowering it. It's grilled very well, developing a beautiful golden-brown crust while remaining moist and tender inside. Beef Shish Kebab - 3.5/5. The quality of the beef is decent, especially considering the price. Given the cut of meat they use, they've done a commendable job with the grilling. The beef has a solid seasoning base and a nice sear with just enough char to add flavor without becoming overly smoky. It's reasonably tender, though I wish it retained a bit more juiciness. Chicken Shish Kebab - 3.5/5. Very similar to the beef shish kebab. It has good flavor and is grilled well, but it could benefit from being a little juicier. Gyro - 2/5. Unfortunately, this was the biggest disappointment. The gyro meat on the vertical spit often appears to be rotating without enough heat to properly caramelize and crisp the exterior. As a result, the meat comes across as dry, rubbery, and lacking the rich roasted flavor that makes a great gyro. Kunafa (Knafeh) - 3/5. This dessert has both strengths and weaknesses. The cheese filling has a pleasant, slightly salty flavor and a creamy texture, and I appreciate that it isn't overly sweet. However, the syrup is underwhelming. A good kunafa should be generously coated with a fragrant sugar syrup - ideally infused with rose water or orange blossom water - to provide sweetness and aroma. I also wish the kataifi, the shredded pastry dough, were crispier and lighter to create a better contrast with the gooey cheese filling. Overall, Al Hamra Kabob Grill is one of the better places to enjoy Middle Eastern-style grilled dishes in the South Bay. While a few menu items could be improved, the grilled fish stands out as excellent, and the shish kebabs are solid choices. The owner is also incredibly friendly and welcoming, creating a warm, neighborhood atmosphere that keeps customers coming back. It's not perfect, but it's a restaurant I enjoy visiting from time to time and one I'd recommend if you're craving grilled Middle Eastern flavors.

I've never eaten in, but I've picked up food from here twice and have enjoyed their food at my sister's house at least one other time. The first thing I don't understand is how this place is in Torrance rather than Redondo Beach. I don't mean that I don't understand why they chose Torrance over Redondo Beach; I mean that I just don't understand the two cities' boundaries very well, because this feels like straight-up North Redondo to me. The second thing I don't understand is how this place hasn't expanded or multiplied or otherwise won the hearts and minds and stomachs of South Bayers near and far. But maybe it already has. The third thing I don't understand is why I don't come here more often. It's not that far from my sister's house, and I was dog-sitting there earlier this year. . . . I'm fresh out of things I don't understand. What I do understand is that the owners of this place (an Armenian brother and sister?) are amazing. The food is so good and fresh and flavorful. The menu is kind of all over the place, which in most cases is a red flag, but in the case of more than one restaurant owned and operated by Armenians (I'm including my cousin's restaurant before he sold it and retired), the more different items on the menu, the better. Or at least it's not a red flag. I promise. The combo deal is legit, but even without that deal, the prices are good, especially when you consider the food quality. Writing his review now makes me miss King Mediterrano even though I don't normally miss it or think about it. Those days are over. Next time I have calories to collect in the South Bay, I'm headed straight for Redondo Beach Boulevard.
