Review long over due here, Locale 90 is a great spot…read more We have been dining here for the past 2 years and change, food quality is always high and consistent. I imagine we eat here at least once every 6 weeks, sometimes that is dine-in, sometimes take-out. Ingredients are fresh, pizza is delicious. Chris and the rest of the staff are always polite and on top of it. We recommend: - Thyme & Roasted Mushroom Pizza, add the Fennel Sausage - Eggplant Rollatini - Mediterranean Salad Locale 90 is consistently excellent. Apologies for taking this long to write a review, keep up the good work!

I've been to Locale90 a handful of times over the years and remembered it being good enough that,…read morewhen we found ourselves nearby with the family, going back seemed like an easy decision. Walking into an almost completely empty dining room while seemingly every restaurant around it was busy gave me pause, but sometimes an empty restaurant is simply good timing. We sat down hoping that was the case. There is real care behind the ingredients here. The pizza is built from the right vocabulary. 00 flour, San Marzano tomatoes, fresh mozzarella, good olive oil and you can taste that somebody has made deliberate choices about what belongs on it. I ordered the Margherita and added mushrooms, which turned out to be a great addition. The mushrooms were excellent, the tomato had real flavor and the blistering from the oven gave it that irregular handmade character you want from this kind of pizza. The proportions just didn't quite work for me. There was so much crust relative to what was happening in the center that eventually the crust became the meal. Some of the char crossed pretty decisively into black, which I can live with from a very hot oven, but the Margherita also felt strangely stingy on cheese. When the dough is already carrying that much weight, you need enough happening on top to meet it halfway. By the end I was dipping the leftover crust into the ravioli sauce simply to give it something to do. That ravioli, incidentally, was excellent. Easily the best thing we ordered. Tender, comforting, with a tomato sauce good enough that we deliberately saved what was left. The kids demolished it, which is generally a more honest review than anything I can write. The Caesar was the disappointment. There were beautiful whole anchovies on top which I loved and wish more places had the nerve to serve but the salad itself was absolutely drowned. The dressing was so aggressive and heavy that the lettuce had already surrendered by the time it reached us. Soggy, over dressed, oxidized brown parts in the lettuce and far more intense than it needed to be. I didn't have the heart to send it back because nothing was technically "wrong" with it. It was just a good collection of ingredients that had been smothered into submission. Service had a similar problem. Nothing overtly bad, but very little warmth. The new hostess was clearly being trained, so no criticism there. The main service felt more transactional than hospitable. Order, check-in, dessert, check, moving us through the sequence efficiently without ever making the meal feel particularly cared for. The wine recommendation was genuinely good, requests were handled and nobody was rude. It simply felt generic. The space itself is pleasant, especially with the coastal air coming through and there is clearly ability in the kitchen. That is probably what makes the experience harder to rate. This isn't a bad restaurant. There were flashes of something very good here. When the meal was over, the ravioli was still the thing I kept thinking about. There is enough quality here that I wouldn't write Locale90 off and I'd come back hoping some of the smaller things. The balance of the pizza, the Caesar and a little more warmth in the service land differently next time. Three stars, for me, doesn't mean bad. It means there is something good here that hasn't quite come together yet. The ingredients are there. Some of the cooking absolutely is too. I hope they take the criticism in the spirit it's intended, because with a few adjustments this could easily become a place I'm excited to return to rather than one I'm still trying to figure out.

After we were done, we spoke with the owner, chef Marcus and another employee who were very friendly and you can tell they care about their clients and give the best pizza and experience possible. Definitely coming back, I'll bring my family and more friends because we really loved the pizza and the customer service. I highly recommend this place!

I ordered the truffle mushroom pizza and it was absolutely phenomenal. The crust was perfectly crisp on the outside while still light and airy inside. The truffle flavor was rich without being overpowering, and the mushrooms were fresh and perfectly cooked. Every bite tasted balanced and authentic, like the kind of pizza you hope to find in a small Italian spot that truly cares about the craft. Then came the Nutella calzone, and that alone is worth the visit. Warm, perfectly baked dough with Nutella inside that melts just right. Sweet, indulgent, and honestly one of the best dessert calzones I have ever had. Also the best and most polite service, wonderful people. I have had a lot of pizza around Los Angeles, and this is easily one of the best I have tried. If you are in Redondo Beach and appreciate real quality pizza, this place is a must. Great flavors, great execution, and a spot I will definitely keep coming back to. 10 out of 10. Highly recommend.

We found this place on Yelp actually and realized they have vegan, plant-based options. When we arrived at the spot, I realized it was in the plaza where Boiling Crab is. The price was average for XL. We go to a lot of other vegan pizza spots and the price was about the same. The pizza was pretty good. The young gentleman that served us was also nice. He also gave us everything we needed. Overall, was a pleasant experience. My only one-off is the pizza crust was thin. We didn't order thin crust. It didn't quite hold up but it was manageable.

What an amazing pizza place!…read more Free parking, spots are limited. Inside & Outside seating, also limited. Small joint but don't let that stop you. Staff were incredible. Friendly, informative and helpful for me and my family's first time here. We ordered 4 medium pizzas, mozzarella sticks, many drinks and a brownie. Everything came out within about 15-20 minutes! Pizzas all tasted AMAZING. Any pizza you get here is sure to impress. Mozzarella sticks are okay, breading could've used more seasoning imo. I will be trying the brownie tomorrow but I was told it was good! Will absolutely come back for the pizza. A wonderful spot.

Finally, found the occasion to try it when we were hosting a party of 8. As the name implies, it's just takeout. Nothing more than a kitchen and counter inside. No tables. We ordered online ahead of time. Two family meals: one pasta and two pizzas. Each came with a salad and bread. The bolognese was great. Fresh pasta drenched in meat sauce. It's a bit heavy, but flavor was on point and I kept going for more. Also, fantastic to sop up the sauce with cheesy bread. The pizzas were one topping only, so we went with pepperoni and mushroom. Both were solid, but I'm regretting not getting the diavolo. Overall, the food is good but wish the portions were a bit bigger. Prices are reasonable. Recommend ordering online about 30-60 mins ahead, as they are super busy during dinner time. Free parking
