"Rebel Republic in Redondo Beach is doubling down on its deck. The South Bay restaurant has been under pressure from the city to shutter the seating area, which was built as a temporary structure in 2016 but has proven to be massively popular among customers. Now they’re suing the city in return, arguing that the build was originally approved by the city and should be allowed to be permitted permanently, and there seems to be no end in sight." - Farley Elliott
