this place was packed when we got here after a friend recommended. Staff was friendly and prompt. The food and drinks were so good. We ordered the hopsaint burger, pesto flatbread and beer and everything was outstanding. The burger was the best burger I've ever had and the beer was one of the best. The flatbread was verygood.

Staff was friendly! Looks hidden but it isn’t, they had the games on and also do tours I believe. Brisket was good, beer was great, and it wasn’t packed. Maybe cuz it was Tuesday 😆

Solid beer, good brisket, incredible key lime pie.

I was visiting from Utah and my friend suggested we stopped here.Amazing place for food and specially , beers.Their Lagers are simply superb , with one of the best taste.The food was also great and service top notch.I was very , very surprise to find such a quality micro brewery in Torrance and I can totally recommend it for food and great tasting beers.Ambiance is also very good.5 stars place !

Ask for their tart or orange peel beer! To die for! Best food and dining experience I’ve had in a long time. Shout out to Erik, their crew of cooks, and I forgot the other guys name but everyone there was fantastic!

we’ve been going here for years before we moved and Hop saint was always our go-too! The best staff and atmosphere ever plus the food is always great and you cannot miss out on their desserts

The food here is fantastic. Better than that it is consistent. Every time I come I know what to expect, my order is going to be cooked to perfection with lots of flavor. The servers are always knowledgeable about the standards, the specials, and what's on tap. Definitely a go to for me when I don't want to be disappointed. The vibe is very low key and the crowd is appropriate for anyone.

Hopsaint Brewing quite arguably brews the best pale ale on the planet.......thank you for this gift. Service was great and the food is on par with this brewers beer. My wife had a beer flight and I had the pale ale while we waited for our food to arrive. The torn potato’s are addictive, the Mac and cheese was creamy and paired perfectly with the pale ale. The pork ribs transported me to the deep South somewhere between Georgia and Alabama. Great job all around. Thank you

Would highly recommend if you’ve never eaten here to give it a go. On the surface, being located in a strip mall with other shops (ie smaller footprint location) and being marketed as a brewery might indicate the food might be mid. But you won’t find that here. Came in for dinner service Friday evening. First thing I noticed was that there were many locals, and lots of families w their children. Service was friendly and attentive. Waits weren’t too long but would suggest budgeting 30 min for the wait to grab a table. The interior is snug, and felt a bit stuffy with it being so busy. That aside. Tried a variety of dishes and they were all high quality and delightful. The chili is S-tier and I highly recommend. For drinkers, the brewery offers up plenty of styles. Definitely can see this place being part of a rotation!

Pretty good food. Was a chill vibe. I liked how we had separate people take our order, bring our food, and clear our table. I liked that dynamic. Everything ran smooth and food came out hella fast. Brussel sprouts were really good and really smokey. We also got the shrimp pasta thing and it was super flavorful. Good to share. A smaller place so expect a wait unless your good to sit outside.

First time visitors from out of town, and all I can say, I wish we had one of these at home. Fresh craft beer and seltzers, excellent food and top shelf service. I highly recommend HopSaint Brewing to anyone on the fence.

This little corner gem is amazing. My nail shop is next door and I've never been here before until today. It smells so amazing and the food did not disappoint. Our server Jasmine suggested some dishes and we are so glad we listened. We were able to share and try a little of everything. The balsamic strawberry salad was so refreshing. The house killer shrimp was so saucy and flavorful. Highly suggest trying this plate. The brisket and the braised short rib was so juicy and it melts in your mouth. Looking forward to my next visit. So spacious and they make their own beer. Everything was on point.

If you haven’t already had the opportunity, this spot is a must try! Upon walking in, the ambiance was noticeably warm and inviting. After trying the Killer Shrimp appetizer, it became clear that the chefs know what they’re doing. The incredible depth of flavor was truly special with every dish. Aside from the amazing food, Madeleine and Christina left a remarkably positive impression on my experience as well. I'll definitely be back!

For an early birthday celebration, my wife and daughter took me to one of her favorite spots in Torrance to enjoy some good beers and food. They kept the beers flowing and I enjoyed every sip. The food was heavenly and came out promptly with little delay. The atmosphere is freely and they had upbeat music playing to you. An vibe to; which also enhanced the experience. Very affordable and a spot you can go to when trying to stay local while also enjoying an afternoon out. I will definitely be back.

Pretty cool brewery. Good rotation and variety of beers. They offer lots of food. Didn’t try their BBQ but had a flatbread which was great. Cool vibe, lots of seating, and friendly service. A great neighborhood joint!

This is one of my favorite restaurants. Not only the beer but also the food is so delicious. This evening, we started with the killer shrimp which all my friends like and then wild mushroom flatbread, roasted seasonal vegetables, and house smoked salmon salad. There were a lot of food for three of us. For the beer, I like “Pure Intention”. Next time, we’d like to try something different.

Wow! We made a last minute stop to this brewery based on the photos we had seen online and can’t even tell you how happy we are that we did! Jackie was our server and was PHENOMENAL! I’m not much of a beer husband, unlike my husband, but was so kind and helpful and even brought over some samplers to try to help find one that I liked! Hubby loved the beer! And wow! The food! Absolutely wonderful! We lived in Texas, experiencing the best bbq in the country and have to say this place was solid! We got the brisket plate and asked for fatty brisket which was cooked to perfection! Moist, juicy, fall apart and great bark. Didn’t have alllll the smoke flavor like traditional pit in Texas, but damn they are freaken solid and would send everyone here who’s looking to experience some top notch bbq! Plus Jackie (without asking) had them cut the belly burger in 1/3 since we were all sharing and it came out looking epic sliced! Way better then we would have cut it! The roasted veggies were solid and the flatbread was also next level! Great crunch, nice flavor, still some fluff on the outer edge of the crust and a lovely cilantro dressing. HIGHLY recommend checking this place out for food, service and beer! We would definitely come back!!

The brisket chili is great! The burgers are large and look very juicy and the selection of award winning craft beers are delicious. Excellent service and atmosphere with lots of parking. Highly recommended. Thank you.

Solid food and great selection of in-house beer with some wine and non-alcoholic beverages, too. Brisket was tender and flavorful. The smoked chili was tasty and the brussel sprouts were another solid side dish. Service was friendly and attentive — Alpha was wonderful to us! Will come back next time for the killer shrimp and see what else is in store!

Great place and very kind people. I got a quick service. The place is cozy and great.

We had to make a quick stop at the local 99 cent store. Hungry and wanted to eat a meal, HopSaint was right next door. After a quick review online, we decided to have dinner at this restaurant. We were greeted when we arrived, and seated quickly. The ambiance was great and the restaurant was decorated and somewhat reminded us of a bowling alley. Our waiter and host was friendly, efficient and overall pleasant to interact with. We decided to try the andouille sausage as an appetizer, the braised short rib, brisket and the signature Burger. We were kind of surprised that the menu was more of a creole BBQ mix up with flatbreads. Their house made lemonade was simply delicious and fresh. We tried the flight sample of four of their beers and the Brown on Brown was the best. The burger was fresh and made to perfection, simply one of the best burgers we ever had. The brisket was smoked and was overall good but could have been more flavor profile there. The braised short rib was the best out of all three that we tried as it was tender, smoked and the grits with cheese was a great addition. Their signature dessert, brownie with marshmallow topping was great, and gooey. A great first time experience. Will definitely be repeat customers as they have other items on the menu that also interests us like the killer shrimp and duck and mushroom gumbo. It is a must try if you're in the area. Prices were on point and inexpensive on many levels and overall a great date night place.

Had brunch here and ate outside on their patio. The staff was really friendly and the food was delicious! I had the breakfast burrito and my friend had shrimp and grits. The burrito had guacamole that was made with fresh avocado and had big avocado chunks. So good. The salsa it came with was good too. We were both happy with what we ordered. I want to go back for dinner sometime to try that as well.

Worked in the South Bay for awhile in 2019 and loved this place. Food is amazing and a great local vibe. Haven't been back since before COVID.

I just wanted to take a moment to recognize Randi for the outstanding service she consistently provides. I've been coming to HopSaint since it first opened, and every time I visit, Randi makes the experience memorable. She always remembers exactly what I like to order, and her friendly, attentive attitude truly makes each visit special. It’s rare to find someone who consistently goes above and beyond like she does. HopSaint is already one of my favorite spots, and Randi is a big part of why I keep coming back. Just wanted to say thanks—and give her the recognition she deserves!

Chorizo Mac and Cheese was great, brisket plate too. The atmosphere was excellent. Staff is excellent too

The chili was amazing. The only thing I didn't care for is how my cornbread had little pieces of onion in it. I wasn't expecting that and it threw me off lol. My daughter ended up taking my chili because she didn't like her macaroni and cheese. To be honest, I didn't care too much for it either. I think its whatever type of cheese they used. My boyfriend had a burrito. It was pretty basic and kinda bland. Beer was good. I had the chocolate one.

Solid beer list featuring a nice variety of taps. They follow the current trendy gastropub style but they do it well and it seemed like it was a popular place. The flatbreads were notably good. It's worth a visit.

The chorizo Mac and cheese was sublime. Great cozy spot overall

It was good but I would have liked a larger entree of brisket ($16). Also the key lime dessert ($8) was kind of small for the price.

If your looking for brews and bbq then definitely check out this gem in Torrance! They have plenty of local brews and southern style food that stands out against the LA scene. Plenty of free parking too! Sunday's special is the Burnt Ends Chili, which is full of brisket bits and flavor with a corn bread on the side. Highly recommend! We also got the Catfish Poboy with slaw. It was pretty good too and tasty. The beer here is really good too. You can get a flight or a regular pint. They also have beers to go so that you can bring some home!

Great decor, service and beer. The food was only ok… Excellent beer selection! The menu was very impressive but fell short. Positives were the Brussels sprouts and the bacon Mac and cheese. Meh were the amazing sounding short rib marinated in tomatillo over grits and the chicken and shrimp jambalaya. Both lacked flavor? The short rib lacked acidity and the jambalaya was over seasoned with cayenne. I wouldn’t re order.

First off this is a pretty nice brewery, small but well maintained. Got a flight and the beers were pretty good, the service was very awesome as well, and the food looked good even tho I wasn’t hungry but the people next to me had great plates so definitely try the food next time but other than that it was a pretty good experience here.

Cool space inside, I love beer and I'm always exploring local breweries when I travel. This one was a disappointed on the beer, although quite a few options, none of the beer was good. The food however was delicious so giving 4 stars because of the food and the space but the beer really needs to come up to the food level. We tried quite a few food items and they were all amazing!

Went in for lunch today with my wife. We ordered brisket, Brussel sprouts and a couple beers. Beers are great and reasonably priced. The $21 brisket order however was way overpriced for the amount. The amount looked almost like an appetizer. Not enough to fill up even 1 person, so the price should be something like $13-16 max. In addition the brisket tasted like tender roast beef rather than barbecue. Other food items are probably good but I would not get BBQ there anymore considering the cost versus amount.

We started with the tasting flight and one of their beers that tasted like a shandy and was really good! Unfortunately the olive plate was super disappointing. Not only did the olives all have pits in them, it seems as if it was attempted to be baked before it was sent out to us which really didn’t provide any extra flavor. There was only 2 small cloves of garlic in the mixture as well. Also, I understand communal tables are part of the brewery experience, but there should be ‘communal’ prices that go along with that.

I was really craving a burger so that's what I ordered. Unfortunately the meat was so charred that it was all I could taste.... It overpowered what a burger is suppose to taste like. And I did not enjoy the shared table either. Hard to have a conversation when you have people at the same table.

The food and beer is amazing here. We used to be able to bring our dogs to the out front patio and it’s such a bummer that they changed their policy randomly. I guess we’ll have to go other places now with our pups. Smog City, LA Ale Works, and Common Space are dog friendly and the staff are wonderful there

Eh, hoped for more, but the food was a tad under seasoned, overcooked, or generally missed the mark. The variety of beer starts and stops at IPAs. They toss in a few others, but those are limited. The staff is helpful and knowledgeable.

Do not waste your time coming here if you want to sit outside with your dog. They will refuse to serve you even if your dog is outside. Came a distance to try out their spot and unloaded our baby stroller , baby and dog just to be turned away when my husband went inside to order some drinks.
