One of my new favorite places for sure. My family and I went to this place 3 times in 1 week because we enjoyed it so much. Every time I ask my wife where she wants to go eat now, she always says this place. We've had many of their popular dishes, and all have been great. All of their food is well prepared, decent portions for the price, and very flavorful. My favorite has been their lomo saltado with tofu. The Bamba is okay but not as good. The gogi tacos have great Korean Mexican fusion flavor with a little spice. The cakifornia burrito is also very filling and delicious. Edamame wantons are good, but I think it's really the sauce that makes it. On their own, they're just okay. Love that they have options to customize everything to your liking. It's a smaller place located in a larger plaza so lots of parking around. Some indoor seating, and it's never been too busy since most people take it to go it seems. Highly recommend checking it out as I'm sure you'll find something you like. Enjoy! read more

Just YUM! Great quick meal, but yummy and relatively healthy. Brought the kids that love fast food, but they all agreed they love this too. The burgers, tacos, and cuban sandwich were all awesome. Friendly staff. Not too much place to sit, lots of take out going on, but we sat at a table and it was nice. Not a fancy place to go, just good food. read more

Been going there since they opened. Used to go once a week. Now, less frequently. The quality has been inconsistent. Lately the salmon has been overcooked. They prepare your order as soon as they receive it, regardless of when you say you'll pick it up. Ergo, the order is cold. read more

It's the sister restaurant of Chinollo (https://www.yelp.com/biz/chinollo-carson?hrid=kW3xW9hca6aJDdatk6dDwQ&utm_campaign=www_review_share_popup&utm_medium=copy_link&utm_source=(direct)), so if you've been there, you've been here, in a virtual sort of way. From what my sister and niece tell me, the menu is identical at both places, and the physical layout is also very similar. Rabano is more comfortable, for some reason. Maybe it's that the storefront is close to the street rather than set far back in the strip mall's parking lot? It looks like it used to be a donut shop--and maybe it was--but they've done a good job of replacing the plastic and linoleum with wood and laminate. The food is very good. I don't remember what I had the last time I was here, but on both of my visits, my taste buds were happy campers. The people who work here are nice, but because it's an order-first, find-your-own-seat kind of place, you don't see much of them once they've delivered your food. If you come with a group larger than three, beware that different things can take vastly different amounts of time for them to prepare. They don't warn you about this, so it can be annoying. They bring out whatever's ready right away, whether or not anything else from your table is ready. The food is so good, though, that it's worth waiting on the kitchen's capriciousness. read more

Unlike radish that grows underground, Rabano's is rooted as a popular grub hub in the South Bay. Located on busy pch, although I've only stopped by a few times, the store is always packed with people and pending orders. Bowls, salads, tacos, burritos made with fresh food and tasty sauces. The pulled pork and barbacoa bowls with chipotle sauce was enjoyable (though not enough sauce provided), and the portions are plenty. On the other hand, the tofu was underwhelming and assorted veggies and fries were soggy. Three stars but would recommend trying for sure. Small storefront parking lot to consider. read more

The Edamame wontons here are EVERYTHING. If you are able to check this place out, it's a must order item. I've had their Banh Mi sandwich a couple of times now as well and it hasn't disappointed. It's delicious! I've also tried other items, such as their tacos, which didn't excite me very much. They have a ton of menu items I want to go back and try, eventually. read more

Great food and great service! We've been eating onsite and also lots of take-out since early 2020 and love the quality of the food and the effort put into the healthiness of the overall menu. Burritos and bowls, especially ones made with salmon and chicken are on our favorites list. I looked at my take-out email receipts and there are over 60 visits not including eating onsite. Even the sauces are freshly made onsite and with quality ingredients :-). read more

This place rocks! So glad to have it open on Main Street. Fast, casual healthy spot with a diverse range of options. Incredibly friendly staff elevates the whole experience. We had the Peruvian Saltado (with steak), the Green Earth burger and shared a side of papas fritas. Can't wait to try more! read more

***update on the below - The owner was able to resolve the issue below. I appreciate his focus on customer satisfaction!*** Ordered a Cuban sandwich to go and once I got home I find that half the ingredients were missing! What a disappointment! I was not going to waste my time to drive back but check out the picture. It's missing avocado, pickled red onions and black bean spread. Also the portion of pulled pork was very meager. $15 wasted for such a sad sandwich! read more

Rabano - Should come with avocado, pickled red onions and black bean spread. Instead they left all those out leaving a very sad sandwich! - Juice Bars & Smoothies Near Me - Hermosa Beach, California

I had such a great experience at Rabano! You can really tell they care about using fresh, local ingredients -- everything tasted vibrant and full of flavor. I had the breakfast burrito and it was absolutely delicious: packed with fresh, quality ingredients, super flavorful, and very satisfying. I also love that they offer gluten-free options, making it easy for everyone to find something they can enjoy. Prices are very reasonable for the quality you get. Friendly service, a welcoming vibe, and food you can feel good about eating -- I'll definitely be back! read more

El Koreano - very good - tasty beef, a little bit of banchan, rice was mushy La Bamba - very good - great flavors, chicken was a bit dry and could have used more mayo sauce. also the black beans were a little watery. rice was mushy again, might just be the way they cook it Overall good healthy food, will keep going!

Great food but meals never come out at the same time while dining in. To go gets priority.

I love rabanos but the last time I went I paid two extra dollars for a small size of avocados. In this day and age this is robbery and ridiculous. read more

It has taken me a long time to try items on the menu because I love what I order and stick with it for future orders! my favorites are the Chinese chicken salad and the lechon cubano plate with ancient grains. My kids love the kids tacos. You can't go wrong with this menu! read more

Food is always amazing. Placed our order online. The girls at the counter were chatting away which I can care less about, but our food was sitting there and they were taking forever to bag it. One of the girls was snappy and rude to my wife who has short hair so idk if she hates gays or what but she was friendly to everyone else that came in to pick up. I added the Vietnamese coffee to our order which I premade but somehow ended up waiting another 10 min for those when there was no one else dining in.... read more

The menu has a ton of variety and the food is great. I come here a lot. But man, there seems to be no rhyme or reason to the speed at which food comes out of the kitchen. There's been times where my partner and I have ordered the same dish dining in and they'll come out 15 mins apart. Im currently at a 20 min + wait for two curry bowls for take out. Ambiance and menu are fast casual but the kitchen ain't that fast! Order ahead would be my recommendation. read more

OVERALL Rabano in Hermosa Beach, CA, is known for its juice and smoothie bar in addition to healthier food options from sustainable local farms. As a bonus, their food items are served in compostable packaging. ENVIRONMENT It's a small restaurant with some indoor dining available. If you order online for pickup, they request that you let them know you're there instead of grabbing your bag off of the shelf. SERVICE The young lady at the register who took my order on 9/26/21 was cordial and helpful. I could have used one of the kiosks to push my order through, but it wasn't all that busy. MY FAVORITE PART... The berries in my smoothie. NOT SO FAVORITE PART... The wait time for one smoothie. DRINKS I opted for a 24 oz. "La La Land" smoothie ($7) with regular sweetness which wasn't really sweet at all. This smoothie consisted of mixed berries, almond butter, and agave. They have an array of refreshers, juices, crafted pops, shaken iced teas, fruit teas, cold brew coffees, hot teas, and boba teas - so many I can't wait to try more. For food, they have a ton of items too from their munchie items to salads to sandwiches and burgers to their "wonder bowls" which are served over white rice, ancient grain, raw greens or grilled vegetables. LITTLE YELPER'S CLUB They offer three items on their kids menu: * "Taco Sunday" * "Kid's Bamba" * "Kid's Teriyaki" PARKING Free parking in the lot. The nearby Lazy Acres consumes many of the marked spots - not sure how stringent they are, though. | Smoothie: 4 | Service: 4 | Environment: 4 | Price: 3 | read more

I have been coming to Rabano in Manhattan Beach for many years, although I might have skipped going for the past few years for unknown reasons. Tonight I brought in some bowls, the Chicken Saltado and the Salmon and both were exactly as I remember them. The Saltado had moist/tender chicken, french fries, tomatoes, onions and a good tasting sauce. The Salmon was fresh tasting and came with assorted vegetables and Hollandaise sauce. I chose 1/2 greens, 1/2 ancient grains for one bowl, and white rice for the second bowl. Both of these meals were outstanding in quality, preparation, and taste. I also ordered the edamame potstickers appetizer and they were crispy with just the slightest twang of spice. Do give Rabano a try if you are looking for fast, healthy, and delicious food in the South Bay area. read more

This place is amazing when I lived in Hermosa Beach. I used to go here all the time with my family and now when I come to visit, it's a great place for me to get awesome vegan food. read more

I can't recommend this place enough. Portions are generous and it's both healthy and delicious. I really wish they would expand and open a location up in OC. I order the La Bamba bowl which comes with black beans, corn, avocado, cashew chipotle sauce, pico de gallo, and protein: chicken breast, tofu or pulled pork. I really enjoy the pulled pork. It's tender and extremely flavorful. Ask for extra cashew chipotle sauce on the side since it's super tasty and the amount of sauce they give isn't enough to coat every bite. The bowls are perfect for picnics and quick lunches to go. The parking here is limited so I recommend avoiding coming on peak hours if you can. read more

Rabano is so good! Love all the gluten free options. I always go for the Koreano bowl with tofu. Their fries are delish too.

Really enjoy this place! I particularly liked their Banh Mi sandwich and blueberry iced tea! Clean and friendly staff!

The food is always good; we especially like the burgers which are delicious and a great value in comparison to other places. The other dishes are good. Trying the ancient grains, they up everything a notch. The service, though limited in nature, can be a hit or miss; but then again, it's a bit expected as they are nice enough to hire local kids for which this may be their first job. read more

Nowadays I rarely stop by a place that reaches 5 stars on my first visit. El Rabano has done it! The staff was so friendly and happy to help. The menu was large and easy to read. They have plenty of options which makes it easy for parties of 3 or more to have a large selection of items to choose from. The food was delicious and very fulfilling. Apparently they also make their own pop. I got the Ginger Ale and it tastes delicious. I also got the El Koreano bowl. Best bowl I have had in a while. The meat was cooked to perfection and the kimchi tasted just like the one my grandma used to make. There is no going wrong when visiting this place. I totally recommend it! read more

Tasty food with good fusion/healthy options. Nice vibe but everyone was there for takeouts. Service was fine. El Koreano bowl: ordered with half white rice and half greens. Comes with steak drizzled with a sweet sauce. Side of pickled cucumbers, kimchi, and bok choy. Very filling with the amount of rice and the meat to sides ratio was good. Would like it more if the sauce was a little spicier. Jasmine Blossom tea: got it with light ice, oat milk, and 75% sweet. Loved the warm boba, but the drink tasted very diluted. Could have been due to my substitutions. I won't get this again Service and ambience: service was fine. Ambience is nice but since everyone was there for takeout, people were standing throughout the restaurant occupying the tables. It would be nice for them to do something about that for people who are looking to sit down. May not be a big issue though. COVID precaution: wearing masks, can order on a tablet near the door. Parking: plenty of parking spots but may be confusing to find the restaurant. It's next to mama d's facing PCH. read more

I was craving something healthy and was visiting lazy acres. I tried the veggie burger and tofu sandwich and I loved both! Both had so much flavor and the burger was humongous. It came with your choice of salad or fries -I chose salad and the salad was much better than those normal side salads. It had pickled radishes and the dressing was very good. Everything was around $15-$16. I'll definitely be back to try other items! read more

The food here can be tasty, but over the years, I've noticed the quality has changed. Some dishes are still enjoyable, but consistency seems to be an issue. I've had great meals in the past, but more recently, the flavors and freshness haven't always been the same. read more

My coworkers and I have ordered multiple times through door dash at this place. Great quality food and ingredients. I'm a fan of the steak saltado. A few days ago, I decided to try something different and I ordered the showtime burger. It was amazing and probably one of the best burgers that I've had. The only thing I wish would change is being able to make changes using the door dash. By the time my burger came and was delivered the my burger started to become soggy. I think being able to leave the bun in the side to prevent this from happening would be great. read more

Super fresh salads, with large portions! Love the asian chicken salad and the southwest salad. Super filling for a meal (dinner) - and pretty reasonable for the price. Love that they don't skimp on the protein. Most people seem to do takeout, but we've dined in and enjoyed it. It can be pretty tight, with people waiting for orders and not many options for seating, but it works out. read more

Wow, this is a busy restaurant! My boys and I stopped in and of course I can't remember what I got. But it was pretty good. The only thing I did not like the drink I got was very very bitter. But overall, I give it a four star very healthy food. read more

I'm surprised to see I haven't written a review before....because Rabanao is an all-time favorite - guaranteed everyone is happy - take out spot for us. Everything is so fresh and so tasty. From the salads to the kids meals. We love the La Bamba (they also have a kids meal version, which comes with a drink). The chinese chicken salad- so good, especially with the pickled vegetables! Kids teriyaki chicken comes with veggies. Love that you can order everything online, see the customizations, add-ons and all the pricing. We placed an order for pick up in 15 min and it was ready in less (granted it was early evening on a Tuesday, but still- suuuper impressed). On top of that, they also have a loyalty program! Next time, we will do better about taking some food pix before we dig in. read more
