Good portions and prices after 3pm on weekdays. The food is good and the chicken tenders are homemade. Get the well drinks or a beer and watch for the up-sale. Order at the bar. Service is standard yet smiley. Nice pit stop away from the piers.

Hole in the wall joint selling a ton of good to-go. We had the Roast beef, brie, carmelized onion and horseradish sandwich (it had a name but can't recall) Also the pasta Carbonara had a ton of proscuitto, and a nice, creamy sauce. Really nice employees, and good arrive very quickly....Recommend highly!

Generous volume if You've ordered Tico breakfast. You may choose your coffee from either medium or dark - paper or ceramic mug cup is an option. The shop was plenty of residents (apparently) so proved how it is loved by the people who knows value.

Gotta go for breakfast, huevos divorciados or whatever meat and hash they are serving. Can't go wrong on that and you can share a plate with a side serving of something wonderful For lunch, order one plate of the hot dogs for your kids, enough for two or three children. For grownups, order whatever is on the special board. Nice... More

We are from Phoenix, AZ and stayed in Manhattan Beach this past weekend. We found North End Cafe on the Triple D website and decided to stop in for breakfast before heading down south to Huntington and Laguna. It's conveniently located off Highland and Rosecrans. It's just a tiny place with about 6 tables inside and 6 outside. We arrived... More

We went there because we saw it on the Food Network Triple D show and was not disappointed. You can't go wrong with any of the pastas!

Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner, Brunch - No matter what you have or when you go; you'll be pleasantly surprised with the quality of this comfortable local spot! We've been there dozens of times and it's always great! Chances are you'll want to bring home some leftovers, as the portions are quite good. Great atmosphere & definitely for "foodies"!

I knew I would be visiting this little restaurant while on vacation in California after seeing it on Triple D... I was not disappointed! We tried the Monte Cristo egg rolls which were amazing and HUGE! Fried fresh, and served with a fantastic creamy dipping sauce. It was a great start to the meal. I ordered the carbonara that was...
