Phanny’s Bringing “The South Bay’s Best Breakfast Burrito” To El Segundo

If you look carefully at the shopping center located on the corner of Sepulveda and El Segundo Blvd. in El Segundo, you’ll notice a small window poster announcing that one of the spaces at 150 Pacific Coast Highway is being leased by Phanny’s.  You could be forgiven for not having heard of Phanny’s before.  Phanny’s is an old-school Redondo Beach neighborhood spot serving what some have called the “The South Bay’s Best Breakfast Burrito“.  Check out their extensive menu of burritos at their Redondo Beach location to get an idea of what may be coming.  I’m told they’re planning on opening soon, possibly in a month, depending on permits.   

Chronic Tacos Bringing “Taco Life” To Redondo Beach, Westchester

Something new is coming to the space that was once occupied by Freebirds World Burrito (remember them?) at 1509 Hawthorne Blvd. #101 in Redondo Beach.  Window paper is up announcing a branch of Chronic Tacos Mexican GrillChronic Tacos began in California in 2002 and operates a number of locations in California as well as a smattering of locations across various states, Canada, and Japan.  Look for a solid menu of tacos, burritos, quesadillas, and bowls.  The website says they’re opening a location in Westchester as well.

Pho Hue Oi Vietnamese Kitchen Expands Into Redondo Beach

Vietnamese food seems to be expanding its presence in this neck of the woods…  An extensive remodel of the space at 4501 Inglewood Ave. #101 in Redondo Beach is making way for a branch of Pho Hue Oi Vietnamese Kitchen.  With one extensively lauded restaurant in Fountain Valley, this is their first foray into LA county.  Look for a menu of authentic Hue dishes as well as other popular favorites such as pho.

The Seafood Bar Coming To The South Bay Galleria

I recently noticed that something called simply The Seafood Bar is landing on the second floor of the South Bay Galleria in Redondo Beach, which by the way is looking forward to a major remodel. Not much information out there on this, but I’ll take a wild stab in guessing that fish will be on the menu. I’ll keep watching as more develops…

BYOPizza Disappears From Redondo Beach

Could this be an indication that we’ve finally reached the saturation point with the custom-built pizza concept?  I recently noticed that the South Bay’s very own outlet of the Southern US chain BYOPizza has closed its doors at 4051 Inglewood Avenue in Redondo Beach.  And if you can’t bear the thought of life without them, the next nearest location appears to be in Texas…
