Best Cozy Restaurants in El Segundo

JOEY Manhattan consistently delivers quality dishes and great ambiance, making it a go-to spot for a top-level dining experience. We started with a couple of apples, and the Hibachi Wings were a great twist on traditional chicken wings - perfectly cooked and savoury. The hummus was bursting with flavour and pita soft. For our mains, I had the sirloin steak, which was cooked perfectly and offered a tender, flavourful bite. The crispy mash was absolutely delightful. Awesome time!

Great spot of the view of the Manhattan Beach Pier and the Ocean and Catalina Island! Everything ordered was excellent and tasty. Definitely a lot of value for what you spend on a delicious meal.

I would love to start off with saying that our experience at Porterhouse was one of the best restaurant experiences I’ve had to date!! Last night, I took my best friend there to celebrate his work anniversary and requested beforehand that we have Old Fashioneds waiting for us. As soon as we were escorted to our table, our Old Fashioneds were delivered to us, and the shock on his face was priceless! Marie was our server, and she made our time at Porterhouse a memorable experience!! Not only is she the sweetest, she’s extremely knowledgeable about everything and delivered top tier customer service! She is seriously a gem, and can’t recommend her enough!! Our food was AMAZING!! We ordered the fresh oysters, Caesar salad, ribeye, mushrooms, mashed potatoes, and marble brioche bread pudding. This was the perfect dinner to be split between the two of us! I hope the bread pudding remains a permanent dessert item because it is seriously the best bread pudding I’ve had!! The ambiance of Porterhouse is nothing short of beautiful!! We sat in the patio area and would highly recommend sitting there! Do not be fooled by it being a patio - it is covered and warm/cozy!! This is officially a new favorite restaurant, and I can’t wait to come back again!! Thank you all so much for making the evening one to remember for many years to come!!!

Excellent selection of oysters. King crab legs are incredible but very expensive. The bread and chowder make the meal. Worth the cost for special occasions..

Felt rushed. Food was good… We were offered 2 tables to chose from even though the place was not full. Asked to to sit on the benches by the fire but we were told that there was a reservation for 14 people at 6:30pm (only a couple sat there until we left around 7:15pm). We sat on one of the tables they offered us and at around 7pm they told us that they needed the table for another reservation (We were still drinking our wine).
