La Terraza

I've been coming to this place since I moved to Redondo over 2 years ago. Living in New York City and owning my own juice bar and coffee shop in Williamsburg, Brooklyn for a few years, I became a coffee snob. So, first off, I love their coffee - La Colombe - if you know it;) It's some of the best. The food is delicious there too, and I love to treat myself to the vegan muffin they have sometimes - YUM! The staff is BEYOND amazing. Every single one of them. They remember your name, take care of you, ask you what you need, how your pets or kids are, etc. I absolutely love them in there. The owners are frequently there hands-on and are very kind. The weekends are packed, and for good reason. The clientele is awesome. Cute dogs and kids and just nice people... always. They have a fabulous outdoor area with umbrellas. Highly recommend for a great experience on all fronts.

I’ve been coming here since they opened and usually enjoy it, which is why today was especially disappointing. I ordered to dine in and sat outside with my dog, something I’ve done many times before. This time, nothing was brought out. After waiting, I went inside and saw my coffee sitting there cold. When I asked for it to be remade, I was told it could just be steamed. It was eventually remade, but only after asking multiple times, which made the interaction uncomfortable. Because of this, I ended up having to stay inside with my dog just to sort everything out, which was inconvenient and not what I had planned when I chose to sit outside. The food itself was cold. The bagel was cold, the cream cheese poorly spread, and the cheese not melted. When I placed the order, the only question I was asked was whether I still wanted the sriracha aioli along with the cream cheese. I said yes to both and had no reason to expect that choice would result in a cold bagel with unmelted cheese. After that, service felt noticeably less attentive. Other customers both dine-in and to-go were handed their orders as names were called, while I was left waiting without explanation. I wasn’t asking for anything special just basic hospitality and consistency. Unfortunately, this experience felt careless and unwelcoming.

Absolutely wonderful meal. I couldn't find an aspect of my selection that felt unaccounted for. I can't point to any complaints or find any wrong's, it was delicious simple food that was well thought out. The two girl's at the counter where also very helpful with not just taking my order but giving me an idea of the menu and what I'd like. The only 30 dollar breakfast that hasn't had me feeling guilty.

Popped in for coffees and breakfast. Breakfast burritos was delicious and not too heavy to start the day. Also had brioche friend egg sandwich which was very yummy. Cold brew amd double espresso were amazing! We had flown in and this was our first morning in need of good coffee and this hit the spot.

While driving in Redondo Beach my Hubby and I of course needed a cup of joe. We came across La Terraza and decided to check them out. They offer your traditional types of coffee in addition to yummy food. Hubby and I decided to eat and grab some breakfast. They offer both inside and outdoor seating. We decided to eat inside. I got an iced vanilla latte in addition to an omelet. Hubby also got an iced vanilla latte and a fancy breakfast sandwich. Everything was really really good! I haven’t had breakfast foods in a while so this was actually kind of nice to be able to grab a little warm breakfast and enjoy it. The service was stellar as well. The place is really clean and nice and I love that the owners are two couples that live locally and decided to come up with this great little coffee shop. I will definitely come back for more!
