Best Hot Spot Restaurants in Hawthorne / Gardena

The food was absolutely delicious—everything was fresh, flavorful, and cooked to perfection right in front of us! Watching the chef expertly prepare our meal was not only entertaining but also a testament to the skill and passion of the staff. The fried rice, steak, shrimp, and vegetables were perfectly seasoned and cooked just the way we liked. The service was top-notch; our server was attentive, friendly, and made sure our drinks were always refilled. The portions were generous, and the variety on the menu ensured there was something for everyone in our group to enjoy.

Still the best deal in the Southland!! Quality, freshness, simplicity and healthiness are hard to beat in this crappy economy but Shinsengumi Shabu delivers like a Shohei Grand Slam!! Tonight my dude bros Cody and Micah handled the hungry crowd with gusto and bravado…….but kind of missed my ATF servers Riley and Kendall……oh well!! Seniors like me get a discount and the Sapporo draft is hard to pass up…….life is good as long as you’re still ticking and there’s this joint to celebrate!!

My daughter and I dined at Bestia as first-timers before heading to the Disney Concert Hall to listen to the amazing Jennifer Hudson. Several parties around us were doing the same thing-great minds think alike. After receiving lots of helpful suggestions from Franklin, our server, we opted for a glass of Riesling and a Cruise Control as our beverages and shared a Margherita pizza, Cavatelli alla Norcina, and the Grilled Pork Collar. All were delicious options. The pizza was so flavorful with just the right amount of char on the crust. The pasta married the sauce, sausage and shaved truffles so well, and the pork collar was sublime; tender and flavorful. For dessert we shared the Holiday Cookie Frozen Torte which gave us a little of everything-cake, coconut, pecans and ice cream. Franklin and his team were friendly, attentive, and professional. We both agreed we would love to dine here again

Love to go to Bazille for great meals with quality food. I especially like the salmon with Israeli couscous and the lemon ricotta cookies.

I took my boyfriend here for his birthday and when we first walking into the building it was really cool and nice getting to look at the cars, the little shop, and cafe. I also now see why the wait to land a reservation here is pretty long because walking in, it did not feel packed or too chaotic. I’m a very anxious person and get uncomfortable whenever I’m at a setting where there’s a lot of people so this was extremely nice for me. Now, for the restaurant, I’m a pretty picky eater so not much stood out to me on the menu other than the classic 917 burger which happened to be delicious along with the side of fries that it came with. The bill for me and my partner didn’t come out to a lot or what I was expecting but I mean we did only have the burgers and no alcoholic drinks. Overall really nice and calm place, I felt comfortable and like I could talk to my boyfriend freely and admire the cars together. The service was also really good! I loved everything and my boyfriend enjoyed it a lot as well.
