    Nashville tenders
    Alexis M.

    A friend brought is to The End. It seems like a nice local bar and restaurant which a pretty big menu. They have a stage and host stand up comedy which would be cool to go to one day. The staff were friendly and patient with our larger group. We ordered a lot of food to share which was all pretty good. I don't remember which pizza was ordered but it was tasty! And the chili was really good as well. I ordered the Nashville tenders which I assumed were going to be spicy and they were just regular breaded tenders, they were okay. I also got a sour beer which was really good!

    I drove by this restaurant every Saturday after dropping my son off at his Japanese school and finally I had the opportunity to try it out! I am so good I went because everything served was delicious. They have house chips and dip which was amazing. The pork belly tacos were also delicious. The sauce was the winner. I went for early lunch so it was super quiet but I saw a stage so I can envision this place to be fun at night! I'm excited to try more of their foods the next time.

    All the appetizers!

    We went on Saturday night for a holiday party- and it was such a fun time!! We were able to see an 80s band after enjoying some delicious appetizers. The show was amazing, the food was delicious, and the service was great. It's nice to have somewhere with live music so close by.

    Great place for comedy and food. Service was great and the events are fun. I really like their drinks!

    I was on the fence about 3 or 4 stars Service: This is a highlight. I came in for lunch and the bartender was the only one in front of house. But he was awesome. Food service was super fast also. A major plus for limited lunch time Ambiance Actually a pretty welcoming interior. They moved and increased the size of the stage from its days as Hey19. For whatever reason , it seems so much more inviting , less dark Bar Chimay on tap. Happy days. Someone with good taste Food I ordered one of their sandwiches. It was totally fine, a very nice take on a traditional Philly cheesesteak BUT it didn't include fries. Not sure why I expected it, but no fries ... no chips... just two pickles. For the price they charge i made the erroneous assumption there would be a side. This is why I was leaning towards 3 stars. Not great value for money. But the service and the beer swayed me

    My second review and just had to do another one. This place from the service to the food and the drinks is excellent. Just hands down 5 stars every time I go.

    So this is our second time here, the first time was about a week ago for the Alfred Robles comedy show. That day I was amazed with the nachos I ordered so I decided to order them again. I also ordered the smoked brisket plate and upgraded the chips to tater tots thanks to our server Julia, who was great at paying attention to myself and wife all night. Their was a live show tonight and the music sounded awesome from the outside patio. Overall the food was great and the brisket was so good I took the leftovers home and plan to make some steak and eggs for breakfast! Our server gave us a run down of the comedians they have had at their venue and we will definitely be making the end our hangout spot in the future!!

    Came in on a Tuesday with a couple buddies. Staff was good and were good giving suggestions when asked questions about the menu which is always a good thing. They had Karaoke that night. So if you are willing you can get up and sing. Hopsaint IPA - Crispy and refreshing golden IPA that is very refreshing but yet packs a little punch of hops. Very good! Truffle Cheese Steak - Brisket, truffle cheese, onions, peppers and mushrooms. Sandwich was good but needs a sauce to bring it all together. Bread was a little dry but meat was cooked well and the mushrooms and cheese on top was great. If you are ever around the area give this place a try. Stay hungry my friends.

    Consistent, well priced, super staff MUST TRY THE BRISKET it's serious business. This place always has great food and will periodically add a few items which I'm always game to try because they have always exceeded expectations. They do also have fun things to do like comedy night, trivia night, various live music events and sports events. It has made it to my list of favorite spots in the South Bay.

    The End is your Dream Bar Part 2: Still Your Dream. Tonight we came for Trivia Night. Mind you, a Wednesday night and the place is PACKED. Half price wine bottles on Wednesday because it's the house of dreams. Food keeps on hitting. Wings, unbelievable. Big ole fat juicy arm flaps. Smoked for hours and fried just slightly to taste. Spicy bbq is thee flavor. Spaghetti and Meatballs, bomb. Fire meatballs if you want just the app. And then the Ahi Tacos, *chefs kiss emoji*. Not gonna lie, we were super skeptical on the Ahi and it was the best thing we ate tonight. I wish other places didn't exist so I could go to The End everyday. Oh yeah, and Trivia was awesome and a ton of fun.

    I've had this place on my South Bay eats bookmarks for a while. Was down in the area and decided to check it out. Lots of screens. It was pretty quiet but it was also 12:30. I had the truffle Philly and I can say holy sh*t. It is legit!! The roll was spot on. I'll be back when I'm in the area again

    Ahi tacos

    I came here to say goodbye to a former coworker who was moving away. It's a little hole in the wall and great place to come to if you're looking to hang out and listen to live music. They have small bands and musicians come out and perform. Their food is delicious. I like their ahi tacos and mushroom pizza as well as buffalo and barbecue wings. I don't drink so I can't speak on alcohol. The servers were nice. I did see one of the guys who had my tacos did not know that I ordered the tacos and had to ask 2 different servers who ordered the tacos. I noticed there was a communication break but it didn't affect the food quality and the food wasn't cold. I think this is a nice little place to go to if you're looking to listen to great music and have a bite or two. Oh and to drink.

    Beer me. Chimay for the Mr. and IPA for the meeee!

    This is The End, beautiful friend... We were looking to enjoy some cold beer and maybe a little football too. Thursday evening wasn't at all busy - bar seating was full but lots of available tables. Austin greeted us and we settled on an IPA and Chimay Triple as we perused the menu and talked about Summertime barbeque. My guy has an incredible barbecue talent. His bbq rubs in my opinion, should be bottled and sold and he taught me there is much more to bbq sauce than what can be bought in bottles. At the time we met, silver skin wasn't in my vocabulary and I learned a good smoking would produce a layer of beautiful pink flesh that to this day I judge all other barbecue. Every summer he invites his crew over for summer slow roasted apple or cherry wood smoked barbecue ribs, tri-tip and brisket that's always rubbed with his custom spices and sauces hand blended for their diverse palates; mild to spicy and one special sauce made with the Carolina Reaper peppers he grows in his container garden. Yup, he's the bbq king in my world. The End has a nifty menu, something for everyone and we were told they take pride in their barbecue. We started with the tomato soup that was good but much better with a hearty sprinkle of S and P. The goat cheese bruschetta was tasty but I couldn't help but think it would have been amazing if the topping didn't appear over marinated. Our mains were the Garlic Cream pizza (Austin's suggestion) and the brisket with a side of fresh house made coleslaw. The pizza was garlicky creamy yumminess - but note if you prefer pizza with veg and/or protein, I'd recommend ordering something else. Perfect size for one, very tasty and for sure consuming this will ensure the vampires stay away. The brisket was not a hit tonight. Good but not smokey pink good and disappointing served with refrigerator cold barbecue sauce. Equally disappointing was the coleslaw. It was super fresh and shredded to perfection but it lacked the creamy sweet, celery seed vinegary dressing that makes it wonderful. Terrific for beer and lots of options for eats. I hear the cover bands are super entertaining - a good reason to visit again.

    Ask the Community - The End

    Hi, have you upgraded your PA system?

    Yes. It is state of the art for small venues. One of the best.

    What time is the happy hour?

    I was browsing through some of the photos and a few photos of the menu show the happy hours plus specials. Here is one photo for your review. https://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/the-end-torrance-2?select=2ILtNRTEjBku7s5rDn6wlA

    Is there a certain time your live music starts?

    Usually around 8p.

    What time does the kitchen close for the night?

    Hello Teresa. Generally, we close the kitchen at 10 Sun-w. Thursdays 10:30, Friday and Saturday 11:30. This is a general guideline. Sometimes we will keep it open a bit later if we have the staff and the business to support it. Sometimes earlier… 

    Kids allowed? Or 21 over only?

    So yes, kids are allowed. But no, not during live music or entertainment, which is Friday, Saturday, and Monday after 9.

    Do you guys have happy hour?

    We do! M-F 3:30pm-6pm. We’ll see you here.

    This came up as a NYG-football-friendly place. Is this correct? I'm looking for a place to watch the MNF game against Dallas.

    Hello Liz. We are friendly to all fans and have plenty of Giant fans that come in. See you tonight!

    My friends and I are looking for a bar with a weekly trivia night. Is this the place?

    Yes it is! Every Wednesday, 7-9! C’mon down!

    I tried to ask another question, but it wouldn't let me for some reason. I wanted to know if you are open now and if so, until what time? I tried calling, but the mail box was full. Thank you!

    We have many kinds, but mostly 80 & 90 cover bands as well as classic rock cover bands. Some originals, too. Follow us on Instagram @theendofsouthbay or on our facebook page Bar/Lounge The End

    Is there outdoor dining right now?

    No Sir! Not sure we'll ever get approved, but we'll keep working on it. Until then, you can enjoy us inside!

The drink tastes so good I finish it in minutes, and I prefer not to get hammered on a Wednesday night. No kitchen is the only real downside. People bring food in or DoorDash it, which works.

It's literally walking distance from our hotel in Torrance -- so close we actually walked past it the first time without even realizing it was there. Super hidden, easy to miss. The space itself is small, and when you first walk in it doesn't hit you with an over-the-top tiki vibe right away. But once the drinks start coming out, it fully delivers. The glassware is so fun and themed -- I was obsessed with the flamingo cup and actually ended up buying a couple online since I couldn't take the real one home with me. Drink-wise, I stuck mostly to my usual zombie, which has this great earthy, cinnamon-y flavor that's just different from anything else -- does the trick every time (there's a two-drink max/minimum on it, which I respect). We also tried a Makahiki Mua and a Painkiller, both really solid. The Makahiki Mua had a fun flavor, kind of similar to a Painkiller, but the zombie is still my go-to. Service was pretty good overall -- the bartender stayed mostly in one corner of the bar, which actually worked in our favor since we got served fast. A couple of small quirks though: they only have a limited number of menus, so we kept having to pass one back and forth around the bar, which felt a little silly. They also seemed to be running low on drink cups at times, having to wash and rotate them back into use, which was an odd thing to notice at a bar this size. Also wish they had some food or snacks available, even something small -- but that's a minor gripe. Vibe-wise, this is easily one of my favorite tiki lounges I've been to -- doesn't quite topple Broken Compass Tiki for me, but it's up there. Fun, easy, great drinks, solid service despite the small hiccups, and a perfect spot if you're staying in the Torrance area. Would absolutely go back and would recommend it to anyone chasing that tiki lounge crawl.

I had seen the Bazille sign above the Nordstrom entrance so many times, but for the longest time I had no idea how to actually get there. For some reason, I also assumed from the name "Bazille" that it was probably some kind of salad or healthy/vegan place , so I never really bothered to figure it out. Well, I finally did about two weeks ago, and OMG -- what a pleasant surprise. You actually enter through Nordstrom and take the stairs or elevator up to the second floor. The restaurant is beautiful, elegant and intimate without feeling overly fancy. But the FOOD! Absolutely delicious. Everything we had was so good. And another pleasant surprise was the price. I eat out all the time and have tried a lot of restaurants around LA, so I have a pretty good idea of what places in this category usually charge. For the quality of the food, the atmosphere, and the overall experience, Bazille is surprisingly affordable. It's not "cheap" food by any means -- it just feels like a really good value compared to similar restaurants. The service was just as impressive. Every single person we interacted with was professional, friendly and welcoming, from the hosts to our server. And clearly the kitchen knows what they're doing because everything that came out was amazing. I can't believe I've walked past this place so many times without trying it. Now that Bazille is officially on my radar, the other restaurants I usually visit when I come to Del Amo definitely have some competition. I'll absolutely be back!

Don't get me wrong, it's good but it's not great. There was something missing that I couldn't out my finger on. Overall tho, it felt like quality food at reasonable prices. B: service: as you'd expect from nordstroms, service was exceptional. Friendly, attentive but not over attentive. I drink a lot of ice tea and my glass was never less than a 1/4 tank. C: ambiance. Ok, full confession, my wife brought me to the mall and nordstroms. For me, It's a bit weird to eat in the ladies active wear section but, looking at the demographics, I TOTALLY see why it's in that section. Picture lots of older ladies (predominantly 50+ white and Korean ladies) meeting up for a glass of Chardonnay and sharing ....HUGE PLATES OF FRENCH FRIES. I didn't know that's a thing. I find it fascinating. If you're in the mall, give it a go. It's quite the experience and position yourself to people watch.
