Emerald Garden Restaurant
2301 Artesia Blvd #1, Redondo Beach, CA 90278, United States
We had a bad experience and are trying to resolve it directly with the restaurant but because they won't respond to us in person or on the phone…We placed an order for delivery and we're told it would be there in 40 minutes. After more than an hour we called to check on the ETA and we're told the driver would be right there. At an hour twenty - still no delivery so we called again and we're again told that the driver would be right there. 10 minutes later we tried calling back and there was no answer. Tried several times - nobody would answer the phone. We gave up - ordered, and went and picked up Mexican food.Almost 2 hours later to the minute, the delivery driver for Emerald Garden came to our door. I explained it had been 2 hours and that we'd gotten other food. I asked what he would've done? He said he got stuck in traffic and had to make another delivery and walked off immediately. We live 5 minutes from the restaurant - with bad traffic 8 minutes. Had they told us on the phone when we called that their delivery driver was slammed - we would have happily picked it up.We've eaten here and had deliveries several times before and generally been happy. We really don't want them to lose business (other than ours) over this. But they're refusing to talk to us or refund us for food we didn't get.Disappointing. We realize times are tough for restaurants and are sympathetic to a fault. This could have been so easily resolved.

The Princess asian kitchen
1630 W Redondo Beach Blvd #20, Gardena, CA 90247, United States
I have eaten at Princess Asian Kitchen kitchen 3 times since it opened in August, and can ONLY eat at this particular Thai restaurant because my favorite Thai restaurant used to be Ya YaaThai and new owner Honey has kept the same menu, same amazing executive chef, except even better flavor/quality/portion size of food! Honey has also provided a very inviting atmosphere to dine in, with good lighting, comfortable seating, relaxing pastel colored walls, and intricate and beautiful Thai wall hangings. Plus, the restaurant and bathroom are super clean!I have enjoyed all the dishes that I have tried so far: shrimp fried rice (generous portion, good seasoning and loved the veges in it too), orange chicken (lightly batter coated, crunchy, flavorful chicken pieces in a delicious orange flavor sauce),drunken noodles with chicken (great portion and flavor), green curry with vegetables ( the mild curry still had a little kick to it that made my nose run, but made my taste buds dance!), shrimp rolls (shrimp is well seasoned with herbs and spices and has a great crunch due to the wonton wrapper), egg rolls (off the menu, but ask for it and you will get 5 tasty huge egg rolls stuffed with a mixture of thin rice noodles, very finely chopped cabbage and carrot and seasonings), and my new favorite dish so far, CHICKEN KAOSOI yellow curry soup ( it came with a generous portion of rice noodles, sliced cabbage, and garnishes of lime wedge, green onions, cilantro, deep friend egg noodles, sliced red onion. There was also a generous amount of thick yellow spicy coconut curry soup). I did not know what to expect when I ordered the Kaosoi since it was my first time ever trying this dish. I was very pleasantly surprised at the explosion of flavors in my mouth! Itwas so good that I finished the whole bowl. I was really hungry when I sat down to eat, but left with a very happy and full tummy!My favorite drink so far is the Thai Iced Tea. I asked for it with coconut milk instead of half and half, and lightly sweetened. Honey kindly granted my request, and it was perfectly made to suit my palate!So, my recommendation is to RUN to this new Thai restaurant as fast as you can to try the menu. It has something for everyone, even if you are vegan or vegetarian!9/24/22 UpdateToday I had take out for lunch. I tried the delicious Thai Spicy Basil Ground Chicken with Jasmine Rice. This was a very flavorful dish and I ordered it mild, plus with a fried over easy egg recommended by owner, Honey. It was the perfect amount of spice and the crispy egg was a great addition! Loved all the veges in it too, i.e. fresh thai basil, sliced white onion, and red and green bell peppers, and also some tasty chili basil sauce to pour over the rice. I would definitely order this dish again!10/1/22 UpdateI had lunch indoors today and ordered two of my favorite dishes, vegetable green curry and vege egg rolls. The vege green curry had a very generous amount of different veges like eggplant, potato, white onion, red bell pepper, carrots, cabbage, and bamboo shoots, in a delicious mild green curry sauce which still had a small kick to it which I liked. The vege egg rolls come 5 to an order, but I ordered 6. They are only about 1.50 to 1.60 each and had a balanced amount of veges and noodles today, and were very crispy and delicious! I also ordered a wonderful dessert beverage for the first time, called Lod Chong Pandan Coconut Milk. The Lod Chong beverage had bits of exotic jackfruit, coconut jelly, and green mung bean jelly, suspended in a tasty slightly sweetened mixture of half and half and coconut milk. Definitely a new favorite beverage of mine! When it was time to leave, I had enough left overs for 2 more meals - thats how generous the portion size is! Food quality is great too!I really appreciate this Thai restaurant because the owner does not allow the use of added MSG to the food. I amglad that I can count on owner, Honey, to always choose her menu ingredients with a lot of love and care!

Furaibo Japanese Restaurant
1741 W Redondo Beach Blvd, Gardena, CA 90247, United States
This was a small, quaint place tucked in a shopping center like area with other Asian eats. The food was not bad, but I couldnt say that it was good either. Let me preface though that we make these dishes at home, and IMO are better homemade.The chicken wings lacked.....chicken. Where did the meat go? The bento was large, but the flavor was subpar for what I had expected. Chicken katsu was crunchy, but the sauce was off (you can always tell a good place by the flavor of their katsu sauce!). Teriyaki steak was tender, but again the sauce was off. Hoise salad dressing was not as flavorful as I hoped and the sides were meh. Miso soup was comforting but lacked tofu and some flavor.Overall, Im glad we tried it, but I would not return.

Happa Restaurant of Japanese Izakaya
1641 W Redondo Beach Blvd # 8, Gardena, CA 90247, United States
When I arrived in the Japanese restaurant with my airpod on. I was expecting a peaceful dine-in. Like quite but when the server came, she brought me to a one table and close to the noise. Laughing louder, I could not heard my own voice on my social media even there is a music on my phone with my airpod on. It was loud. Then, I call the server and I explained to them to move me to another table but when I moved to another table, I suppose to document myself in social media about my situation with my online stalker but, I am still hearing tiny noise then these youngster left after they have fun with the food. There was a 2 old men who are drunk and I am hearing racial stereotype of my race and my home country. One old guy says, “ she was reminded me my daughter “ then he said this “ go back to the Philippines “ these two old men they were talking about me because Im Filipino and they were supposed to not doing racial bias behind my back. I told through the server, there is two drunk men and talking about my race and country. One server man “ this is a restaurant “ basically I can hear some noise but these two old men are continuing their conversation and I am still hearing same word “ go back to the Philippines “, so, I called the server again. I don't wanna making fight with man because I'm a woman. But these two men still saying same thing and heard from them about my language that I spoke which was taga-log. The food is tasty together with dessert and it was cheap but overall, I could not enjoy my dine-in experience with this restaurant and. It is inside of decent hotel. I would not recommend this place to enjoy the dine-in experience. I will give 2 stars out of 5 stars on google maps because what I experienced.

Siam I Am
215 S Pacific Coast Hwy, Redondo Beach, CA 90277, United States
Visited Friday, Dec 16 2023 7:30pm[ Update Dec 21 2023 - We did go back before heading home, 2 more times to this restaurant with a 3rd time for carryout dessert. Sweet sticky rice with coconut ice cream and fried banana with caramel desserts were both amazingly light and delicious as well.? ]On Thursday, after walking back from dinner, we stopped in this cute little place to ask their hours and to look at their menu for perhaps a different night.A very welcoming young man, Nes, gave us a tour of the menu. Hours are 1130am to 9pm, with the last order taken at 830pm. Also we asked someone who was picking up a carry out, if they frequently eat there and she said yes & that the food is always excellent and fresh. Agreed !!!So here we were, trying it out the next evening. Again, Nes was there who was so genuinely happy to see us return. He was so very welcoming, polite & gave us excellent service. This place is small, peaceful & relaxing with a small outside patio that is also very inviting. We felt like Nes was welcoming us over for dinner, just a very pleasant experience.The food was very fresh, nicely presented and quickly prepared. I ordered a mixed vegetables plate and added chicken and my boyfriend had drunken noodles with duck.Everything was amazing, so fresh and deliciously mouthwatering. The prices are also very reasonable.This place is really a hidden gem that I almost want to keep hidden....but I also want them to flourish in business because they deserve it with the care they display in preparing the food and the grateful & humble service they provide.I should also say, I am now a fan of Thai food which I wasnt before visiting. Both dishes we tried were not spicy, I am quite the wimp when it comes to spicy food.We will be returning to try appetizers, more entrees and dessert before going back home to Michigan. Honestly I could eat here every day before we leave and I am so thankful to have discovered this beautiful restaurant.Even the green tea was also very delicious.Thank you.

Panda Express
417 N Pacific Coast Hwy, Redondo Beach, CA 90277, United States
I went to Redondo Beach last night.I stopped at the shopping mall.I remembered this place. I used to come here when it was hot in the summer days.I didnt have a chance to eat my dinner.And I was hungry for Chinese foods.Then, I found the Panda Express fastfood restaurant. This shopping mallhad a big parking lot. They even hadan underground parking lot.Anyway, I went inside the restaurant.It was very clean and they had plentyof tables & chairs to sit. One youngman who served me for my food.He was polite and friendly. He helpedme to choose my selections. I had twochoices of Orange Chicken & TeriyakiChicken, which came with fried rice.When I tried the Orang Chicken, it wasamazing taste. I loved their tasty sauce.It was sweet and tangy. Teriyaki Chicken was all white meat, and it was juicy and tender. Also, fried rice wasnot salty, so it was good with Orange Chicken & Teriyaki chicken.They offered a big portion for one person. I couldnt finish the food.Panda Express is a Chinese fast food restaurant, and they offer many selections of tasty Chinese foods.This place offered outdoor seatingareas. It is a nice place to sit outdoorsand enjoy foods.If you like Chinese foods, I would liketo recommend Panda to everyone.

Pho Consomme
1850 W Redondo Beach Blvd, Gardena, CA 90247, United States
WOW I never!!I sooooo wanted to like this place but it was a total bust from the beginning.1. The vegetarian options are AWFUL. I got the Fried Rice with veggies and tofu and the rice wasnt even fried. It was a disturbing yellowish color that didnt resemble any fried rice I ever had, and the veggies were frozen peas and carrots. Something you could make at home on a lazy Wednesday. It was an OK dish. I wouldnt recommend it at all.LESSON: NEVER GET BACK OF THE MENU ITEMS!!!2. The bathroom was filthy. FILTHY. Walked in and a large turd was floating in the toilet. (Had to kick the toilet handle to flush it, didnt wanna touch the handle). It was toilet paper covers all over the floor. It looked like a public restroom in a park -_-LESSON: Dirty Restroom = Dirty Kitchen = Dirty Staff3. The kitchen was FILTHY. I sat near the swinging door and caught a glance of the kitchen and was petrified. Cut up boxes on the floor to absorb water or keep the staff from slipping. The floor was visibly wet. Plus it was food particles all on the floor. It wasnt a great sign. A messy kitchen = food poisoning in some occasions. Luckily I didnt order any meat but I was worried about dookie fingers in my fried rice.LESSON: NEVER EAT WHERE THEIR A DIRTY KITCHEN4. The staff was sooooo confused. They mixed up more than one order. They gave me someone elses Tofu Stir-fry. It was at my table for a good 2 mins before they realized it and before I could figure out it wasnt what I ordered. They took it to the man behind me which i thought was kinda awkward since I was breathing over his food seconds prior. But he got his revenge when they accidently gave his table my FRIED RICE!!LESSON: NEVER LAUGH AT SOMEONES MISFORTUNE, IT CAN EASILY HAPPEN TO YOU TOO!!As a borderline germaphobe there were just one too many strikes about this place. I kept thinking ima get gonorrhea or something messing with this service. I would of appreciated it more if the food was actually good. But it was basic.
