    I forgot to say that it is also a museum with beautiful works of art!

    SBC is a great place to do any type of event whether you are a motor enthusiast, if you enjoy live music or you can appreciate a great retro vibe. They have a large space that allows a great experience either for a large group or small gathering. Michael and the rest of the team are excellent hosts who make things so special for whatever you are looking for. SBC is a hidden gem in El Segundo that I highly recommend because they made our celebration something unforgettable that not any venue in the Los Angeles area try to offer.

    We had a great Beatles cover band. 4 Lads From Liverpool were great! And the sound system at this venue was perfect!

    I booked this venue for my mome 61st birthday party. The ambiance at the venue was absolutely perfect. All our guests walked in and had the same reaction..."Wow, this place is cool!". The decor is eclectic, the lighting throughout was exactly what I had in mind. The sound and lighting from the stage was amazing! It felt like being at a mini concert. Plenty of space for dancing and believe me we used it! Mike was very easy to work with throughout this process. I was able to text him with any questions from booking to even the day after the party. I had the privilege of having some nice conversations with Mike and I felt like I was saying goodbye to friend when I was leaving the venue after the party. I would absolutely recommend booking this place for any event. It's a very versatile space and working with Mike was a pleasure!

    Wonderful indoor/outdoor event space. Very unique. Helpful and professional staff. Great sound system! Classy but laid back atmosphere. Would definitely recommend this venue for your upcoming parties.

    I had my wedding here in Nov 2022, and I couldn't have picked a better place! From the beginning, Michael and his wife were so kind and informative, let us see revisit the venue whenever we wanted before the event, and answered all questions we had. The minute we walked in we knew it was the perfect venue to fit our style as we were going for a very non-traditional, Alt wedding. I would always describe it to people as a Biker Bar/ antique shop aesthetic. The day off, my DJ didn't end up working out and Michael and his wife took over the music and lighting and let's just say the dance floor was never empty. I cannot thank them enough for literally saving my wedding and I can't get over how beautiful the venue looked. Even more so, at night, with all the lights outside and everyone loved the patio upstairs. One compliment I always go back to is a family member saying "it was the most beautiful and unique wedding I've ever attended." Still get compliments on it to this day. And Michael even helped us find a cleaning crew in the end, so we literally did not have to worry about anything except enjoying ourselves. I cannot thank South Bay Customs enough for the most magical night of my life. I already have friends and family looking to book their next event there. Be sure to book your next event here!

    Although we had food trucks for guests to choose from, we ended up hiring Michael to do barbecue for the kids.

    I go to this mall for one thing, Entry to the AMC Movie theater which is on the 2nd floor…read more. I have been going here for years. These past couple of years I have noticed store closures. Stores have been closing due to the lack of business in this mall. At current status, its a Ghostown! Shopping is really non existence. "Its rather creepy." Its a sad situation to see that so many businesses are closing down. There is talk that this mall will completely close for good, maybe a couple of years from now. Rumor has it that this mall will be demolished for condos or some type of housing real estate investment? Overall I would come back! Its probably a good time to shop at this mall now since everything will be in liquidation soon. As for now, every stores is giving some type of discounts. No congestion, no traffic and plenty of parking. The mall is clean. I advise to look out for some deals. I seen discounts here and there that is ridiculously great! Lots of history at this mall. Going to be sad to see when this place gone.

    Review #606 2025-095…read more I'm backtracking my review count because the original #606 was for defunct Bird Talk Chicken that "it was removed due to the review & photos posted appears to depict a YEE" (I went back the next day because my fam really loved their food so it's unrelated). Anyways, the last time I've been to South Bay Galleria was in 2019, & dined at a few restaurants & shopped at a few stores: Sunny Side Up Deli & Grill (refer to Review #272), Fresh Splash (refer to Review #273), Cafe Meli Mellow (refer to Review #434), Crazy 8 (refer to Review #372), H & M, Payless Shoe Source, etc. Post pandemic, I only recently visited a handful of times for a Yelp event at French Touch (refer to Review #790), birthday parties at Wonder of Dinosaurs, Urban Youth Parks, & most recently, I went to an event at Orange Door Spaces with fellow mom from SBCS & watched a movie at the AMC Dine-In with my Yelp gal pal, Lily W. South Bay Galleria opened in 1985 & housed anchor stores like Nordstrom, Mervyns, Macy's. I started coming here in the late 1990s when I moved to the South Bay. I noticed declining foot traffic (likely because the food court lines have gotten shorter) since the departure of Mervyns in 2008 or 2009, followed by Nordstrom, & more store closures. Their foot court is on the 3rd level with a handful of eateries distributed on other levels. South Bay Galleria will be undergoing major redevelopment from its traditional shopping mall into a mixed-use complex. News vary from residential units, hotel, with commercial spaces & a parking garage on the surrounding parking lots, with the potential of some original buildings remaining, though a significant portion will likely be demolished to make way for the new development. There's not as much shopping opportunities/retail stores as there are experiences: Battleground (competitive multi-player story driven free roam VR experience), VR Place (10 station VR experience), QuestRoom (escape rooms), Skate Farm (skating rink), Funshare Arcade (arcade games, claw machines, ticket redemptions), Cherished Memories (elective 2D/3D/4D sonogram), Zen Relax (massage). Peekaboo Bin Store might be interesting, a sort of bargain hunt/discount, last chance store. Mall hours are short, & opened from 11:00 AM - 7:00 PM. If you're here for the movies in the evenings, park in the structure & exit at Level 4 to enter the empty mall (I was lucky to run into security patrolling the grounds to learn about this outside Q). I don't feel very comfortable here at night due to the parking lot's desertedness, but am glad to see security both times when I was here at Orange Door Spaces & AMC. I'm not sure if I'll be returning any time soon, but my kiddos are curious about VR & may stop by Battleground or VR Place, & possibly QuestRoom (are escape rooms still a thing?). Sad to see this once bustling mall fade away.
