4 Restaurants to Try This Weekend in Los Angeles: February 14 | Eater LA
"Located in a semi-hidden strip mall near Del Amo Fashion Center, the new outpost brings offerings that are "really great for the South Bay," anchored by a deep umami-rich broth that stands above virtually every other Vietnamese restaurant in the area. The banh mi are "excellent," sporting crisp but light baguettes. Bánh bèo aren’t available yet, but once added to the menu "the delectable little rice and tapioca flour-filled cups topped with fried shrimp and drizzled with fish sauce will make for a terrific appetizer." Note that, despite proximity to north Redondo Beach, traffic from south Redondo Beach, Hermosa Beach, south Torrance, and Palos Verdes can make the trip feel longer. — Matthew Kang, lead editor, Eater Southern California/Southwest" - Eater Staff
