I can't believe I slept on this gem of a restaurant for years before giving it a try…read more Nowadays, when I do come in I switch between the #75 and #76. The Reuben with corned beef and the Reuben with pastrami. Both plates come with your choice of a salad and pickles. I recommend the potato salad; it's my culinary guilty pleasure. Truthfully, I don't get that much a smoky taste from the pastrami, but it's still delicious. That corned beef is so wonderful, it's so tender and falls apart so easily upon a bite. Their soda menu is a very lowkey, unsung hero. I've tried soda brands you don't typically see in grocery stores. Their ginger ale hits the spot without fail each time. I think one drawback is that this place doesn't allow adjustments. I've personally never asked for any, but I can see how other customers might find that off-putting. I typically do a pick-up order vs. dining in, but when I do enjoy the sandwich in the restaurant - the service is super quick and cordial. The interior of the place itself isn't exactly upscale, but it's also more polished than a standard diner. TONS of seating inside and a few tables outside if you want to enjoy your food with some fresh air. I'm not in New York often, but I'm so glad I can get some quality food with east coast hospitality locally.

Walking up to the restaurant, I noticed there were many outdoor patio tables lining the sidewalk. The deli counter is the first thing you see when you walk in, but there's a huge indoor dining area. The sign states to seat yourself, so as soon as I seated myself, staff provided me with a menu. I ordered a coffee and hot pastrami sandwich on rye bread which comes with a choice of salad. I chose the cucumber salad. The pastrami sandwich was huge. It was packed with a lot of high quality, tender pastrami meat. The plate also comes with a side of pickles, so yes, I was full afterwards. My coffee cup was always filled, tasted good, and hot. The two staff that were waiting on all the tables were friendly and efficient. There was never a moment I felt neglected. It's prefect for both small and large groups. Parking: Free, shared strip mall. Crowded, small parking spaces.

The meats tasted fresh, the bread was soft, and the staff was super friendly. It can take a little while for the food to come out, especially during the busy lunch rush, so keep that in mind if you're in a hurry. The market itself is nice and worth checking out. There's limited outdoor seating, but it's right next to a busy street, so it can get pretty loud. Parking can also be a little difficult. Overall, a solid spot with good sandwiches and friendly service.

I went to the Gardena location and Karen running the counter was very defensive and said they aren't affiliated with the Torrance location. Apparently, she hasn't heard how franchises work.

The Hot Pastrami was good and well balanced, an easy choice if you're not sure what else to get, but The Monster was my favorite. Loaded with Cajun turkey, roast beef, avocado, jalapeños, honey mustard and Cajun mayo, there was a lot of flavor packed into every bite. The dark sweet bread pulled everything together and added a nice contrast to the savory fillings. It definitely lived up to the name! The place has a casual, old-school neighborhood deli feel that fits the food perfectly. The portions were generous, and service was friendly and welcoming. I'll definitely be back to work my way through more of the menu.

Had plenty of carne asada mixed with other ingredients that packed plenty of flavor. Pricing not too bad especially for the portions that you get. Service is perfectly fine, can order ahead too.

No, but it's still very good and definitely hits the spot. The location and laid-back vibe are a big part of the appeal. Grab a sandwich or a slice before heading to the beach, or stop in afterward when you've worked up an appetite. A solid Hermosa Beach institution and a great casual stop when you're in the area.

It's unexpectedly large for a place by the shore, and I was thrilled because even though I checked Yelp and Google, I couldn't find much info. They're open super early and stay open late, and it's just such a gem especially since that area tends to shift toward restaurants or other businesses. This neighborhood really needed a good grocery store, and they have everything: fresh meat, drinks, snacks, fruits just like a full local grocery. The staff was really nice and laid-back, though the only downside is that parking is super limited and intersection it's tough to get in and out since it's near a small with a red light. Still, I'm really glad it's there, and I want to give a big shout-out to the local folks to support this place. The prices are really reasonable, and we need to keep these local businesses thriving. they're the heart of the community. I gave them five stars. I just hope they can clean it up a bit inside, maybe freshen up the shelves or ceiling. But overall, I'm so happy it's here, and we need more of these places in our city.
