Best Restaurants for Anniversaries in Hawthorne / Gardena

Food was terrific. Tomahawk steak outstanding, as was sea bass. Side dishes excellent as well. Only gripe was with service. Restaurant was not at all crowded, and while we (three diners) were seated immediately, our waiter appeared for about 20 seconds to greet us, but then inexplicably disappeared for 22 minutes. Episodic appearances continued, which was annoying, although he was a nice guy and actually a good waiter when he did appear. This resulted in most food being brought at slightly sub-optimal serving temps, which is a problem when one is spending $100 per plate. Other than that, this wasn't that big a deal, and we had a lovely time.

Even on Xmas day, service was pleasant and efficient. Always enjoy food and margaritas 🍹

We had the Christmas buffet. My only complaint was that the food was sooo good and I couldn’t indulge in everything. Our server, Christina, keep the bottomless Mimosas on FULL!

Food is consistently good, service is excellent, good vibes, wonderful local home away from home dinner on Christmas Eve.
