This is our go to for a quick and easy sandwich! Lots of options to choose from. They get busy and the wait can take some time so I suggest calling ahead for pick-up! A little tricky to find- tucked away inside the complex next to our community on the lower level by the pool. Call to ask for directions or use the gps on your phone!

Historic seafood market! I have been coming here since I was a child. Super casual outdoor atmosphere. You pick any live seafood you want from the water tanks, and they steam or grill it for you on the spot! Or take it home and cook it up yourself!

Family owned and operated since 1952. My grandparents frequented this establishment as they ate fresh seafood and watched the sun go down while they sipped cocktails. This is one of my favorite nostalgic places to visit (you might notice by all the souvenir cups at our property)! :)

Enjoy the complimentary fresh made warm tortillas served with honey butter and a selection of salsa to start your meal off right. Follow it up with one of their speciality margaritas with a kick (jalapeño, serrano chili or chipotle)! Located on Pier Ave in Hermosa. We usually try to park in the paid parking lot behind Scotty's.

Ignore the photo, it is auto-populated by Airbnb and is NOT correct. The local farmers market is directly behind Redondo Beach on the Esplanade every Thursday from 8 AM- 1PM. Food trucks, locally grown fruits, vegetables and fresh flowers, what's not to love? Stock up on your favorite and bring them home to cook a fresh meal.
