Gladdiel is the best barista of all the coffee shops we frequent. Gladdiel's iced vanilla latte is our favorite. Recently, we've had the great fortune of having our favorite iced vanilla latte made by Jenny. Jenny is always upbeat, friendly, and one of the best baristas, right up there with Gladdiel. Jenny's latte's are super smooth and rich, with no bitterness. We don't how she does it but we love it when she makes our lattes.

I was making an errand at the CVS next door when I saw this coffee shop- I needed an afternoon pick…read moreme up so went in. I was kindly greeted as soon as I walked in and was welcomed promptly. It was nice that they had options for coffee sizes/cups, had pastries and light brunch options and etc... the downside is that the large was almost 8 dollars! The indoor space is pretty wide open and would make a good study spot. They also have a few tables outside but is fairly loud because the shop is located at the corner of busy streets. In regard to the vanilla bean coffee, it was okay; not the greatest or worst I've had. Overall, the space and vibe i get is an upgraded Starbucks feel. Good customer service and mediocre coffee.

I was excited to try this French bakery for the first time, but unfortunately it was a…read moredisappointment. We stopped by this morning, and the pastries we ordered were not fresh at all. They tasted stale, which was surprising for a French bakery. We also ordered the chicken sandwich, and it wasn't good either. It had only a very thin slice of chicken and lacked flavor, making it feel overpriced for what we received. The only positive was that the service was decent and the staff were polite. Unfortunately, the food didn't meet our expectations. This was my first visit, and sadly, it will also be my last.

We decided to visit Riviera village after a relaxing morning stroll through Torrance Beach. Since…read moreit was almost noon, we searched on Yelp and decided to have some crepes for lunch. The restaurant has inside seating for 40 guests and outside for 30. We arrived between breakfast and lunchtime and were able to get the last outside table. The attentive staff got us seated right away, and after browsing through their menu, we ordered the following items (arrived in 15 minutes) : Marine: The buckwheat outer layer was soft, not soggy, and with nice resistance. The light creamy tomato-based dressing with sliced mushrooms was pleasantly flavorful. Both shrimp and scallops were of good size, fresh and juicy. Fromage: Like Marine Crepe, the buckwheat out layer was soft. The mild brie cheese provided pleasant creaminess to the filling. Seasoned bacon, scrambled egg, onion, and mushroom added nice savoriness to the dish. The portions were sensible and the prices were reasonable. Very nice culinary experience.

Been coming here a few times a month over the past 3 years, always loved it…read more But recently it really became subpar... First the food size is becoming ridiculous (au gratin potatoes so small) The service is where I'm shocked, the waiting staff turnover is crazy. I was there last Sunday evening (05/24) and one of the waiter with a French accent looks like he just started that day, he was clueless about the menu, didn't know what was the soup of the day, and very inattentive to our table (water refill, empty plates...) like he just wanted our tips ! Also I'm sorry about that one but he had a foul smell like he just finished working out... the table next to us was saying the same thing. I came back on Friday (05/29)early afternoon and seen the same waiter still no refill and same foul smell Im going to try their other locations in PV or Hermosa and see if I'm lucky and they're like that location used to be

All other pricing was acceptable. Few for valet ($8). Restaurant is very clean and so are the restrooms. Can't speak on parking because every time we come here we always valet. They changed the outside around a bit. Seems like there is more room since there are more tables. Nice views to look at outside.

I made a reservation on OpenTable for 4 to celebrate my daughters eighteenth birthday, around…read more3:30pm the place was very nice, people in the inside seating area were saying happy birthday to my daughter as we walked passed t I am extremely disappointed with my experience and feel that this restaurant nearly ruined a special birthday celebration due to a fee that was never disclosed in advance. When I made the reservation, I clearly stated that it was for a birthday lunch and that we would be bringing a small 5-inch round birthday cake. At no point during the reservation process was I informed of any cake-cutting fee, nor was it disclosed anywhere that I saw when booking. After being seated and reviewing the menu, our waitress approached the table and said, "Just so you know, we charge a $30 cake-cutting fee." I politely explained that we would not need anyone to cut or serve the cake, so the fee would not be necessary. She then informed me that it was restaurant policy and said she would have the manager explain it. The manager came to the table and doubled down on the charge. He explained that they used to charge per slice but that "it started getting a little crazy," so they now charge a flat $30 fee. He even tried to justify it by saying it was a better deal because their desserts cost around $50 each. I explained that this was not a deal at all and that I had never heard of such a fee being imposed simply for bringing a small birthday cake. More importantly, I told him I was completely unaware of it because it had never been disclosed during the reservation process. I made it clear that had I known about this additional charge beforehand, I would not have chosen to book this restaurant. The manager compared it to a corkage fee. I responded that corkage fees are a widely known and standard practice, whereas charging $30 for a small birthday cake is not something most customers would reasonably expect, especially when it is not communicated in advance. As a result, we chose to leave rather than begin a birthday celebration feeling blindsided by hidden fees. Fortunately, we went to The Cheesecake Factory right up the street, where we received excellent service, enjoyed great food, and were not charged a fee for bringing a birthday cake. I want others to be aware of this policy because it was not disclosed upfront and could result in unexpected charges. While they may have every right to have such a policy, customers should be informed before making a reservation, particularly when the restaurant has been told in advance that the occasion is a birthday celebration. Thankfully, they did not ruin her birthday lunch, but they certainly put an unnecessary damper on what should have been a happy and memorable occasion.

I had the Tinga Flautas, perfectly crunchy, moist inside and full of flavor. We also tried the birria grilled cheese and the buñuelos with ice cream and that was just okay. Happy hour is solid- the $15 mimosa pitcher was enough for at least 4 people, and they offer guava and other juice options. The ambiance is really nice too, we had a table with a beach view, which must be gorgeous at sunset. They have couches that face the beach, it's definitely a nice spot to, imagine lounging on the couch with a drink in hand. Overall great service and vibes. I'll definitely e back!

Food: It was hit or miss on the items we ordered. Drinks: Watermelon Margarita (5 star) came with a chunk of watermelon and it was tasty. The Chain Smoker (4 star) was Smokey but I should have swirled it to get all the smoke infused. Starters: Great complimentary chips and salsa (5 star). The Guacamole was very tasty but there was not a lot of it with the order (4 star). The Corn ribs were really good with a nice BBQ sauce (5 star). Mains: The Chile Relleno Burrito with birria was substantial and filling but I was adding salsa to get the flavor boost (4 star). The Cal Mex Fries with pork belly were "bag fries" but had good toppings (3 star). There is a happy hour Monday to Thursday and I think I will come back to try that. Service: Good service for a week night and we had a very nice waitress. They do a service surcharge that you can ask to have removed and they let you know up front about it. Atmosphere: Well designed restaurant decor and the views are top notch (even at night). You can have Tex-Mex on the beach. Win-win. Bathroom was serviced and clean.

Service was amazing & Daniel handled thé outdoor customers with ease, but perhaps the young lady should say excuse me before reaching over to fill water glasses. That Mac & Please was a creamy cheesy bowl of heaven. The Brussel sprouts were cooked to a crispy perfection. Her oysters disappeared like a blink of an eye. Ambiance was ok, loved being with the besties but parking lot pimping wasn't the goal. Overall loved it and would come back but will sit inside.

They have seating on the patio and inside with both tables and booths or at the bar. The decor is fun with bright vibrant colors and picturesque walls. Food was decent, though basic and (see picture of Truffle Fries, they should have spent a few more seconds in the fryer to get at least a little golden and have some crispiness rather than blanched and lackluster). The Machaca Scramble was the most flavorful and best tasting dish we had at our table as the corned beef hash and eggs were standard (not bad but nothing to Yelp rave about). By far the best part was the Bottomless Mimosas which are offered everyday, not just on the weekends! Big bonus! Our server was attentive and had a happy disposition. I felt Serendipity has so much great potential, between the decor, service and bottomless mimosas I'd imagine they would have more birthdays or group celebrations going on, especially for such a large space. But the vibe was a bit off with the low playing Spanish music, I would imagine if they had more pop music or upbeat music to fit the vibe of the place they'd have more of a fun vibe. Not that there is anything wrong with Spanish music, it just wasn't jiving with the vibe of the place and was so low and not so up beat (romantic Spanish ballads were playing). The laminated menus also gave an old diner vibe instead of trendy "serendipity" vibe. I'll still come back to see if they can match the vibe to the decor and try a few other menu items, but I do hope they up the ambiance. And get that extra star status!
