Good Stuff The Strand Reviews
There are 4 Good Stuff locations around the South Bay, but this is definitely the busiest end closest to the water. It is literally right off of the beach, there are no buildings west of it. Obviously that is a huge selling point so given that the lines here can get quite long and parking can be a bit of a hassle. We were lucky enough to find a spot in the self pay lot a block away otherwise your best bet will be metered street parking. We had to wait about 10 minutes for a table for two for a Saturday brunch, but it was worth it. Our server was very polite and everything that we ordered came out very fast. One thing I like about this place is their menu is the same at all of their locations but they have rotating specials. For this visit, I chose the Chorizo Chilaquiles and honestly loved them. It was perfectly spicy and the eggs were done just how I like it and the whole dish was just great. I added avocado which I would highly recommend. Definitely would be a great place to stop in for a lively brunch, this chain is always consistently good.
Located right on the Hermosa Beach Pier with beautiful ocean views, this spot has a relaxed and refreshing atmosphere. The menu leans toward healthy options, offering items like burgers, burritos, and eggs benedict. The dishes are vibrant and colorful, making both the food and the location very photo-worthy. On top of that, the staff are friendly and welcoming, which makes the whole experience even better.
What a great brunch spot ! I didn’t get a picture of everything we had but it was all yummy . Their peach waffle was perfect . I had their keto chicken soup and was very satisfied . You can see the beach from every seat . The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful . You can add your name to wait list ahead of time . Try the matcha ! The food is served hot and fresh .
Antonio is a very pleasant, attentive server. Food presented beautifully. Great view of the Team USA beach volleyball teams practicing. Beautiful!
Tadeo was our server. He was very friendly & attentive. Food was delicious & the beach vibe was very cool & relaxing.
Excellent food, huge menu and service is 10/10! Not to mention the outside seating option to enjoy the view and South Bay vibes!
The best huevos rancheros I’ve ever eaten. Excellent service from Antonio. A well oiled machine I highly recommend.
Great spot with a relaxed Hermosa Beach vibe. The food is fresh, flavorful, and clearly made with quality ingredients. Everything we tried was well-seasoned and cooked perfectly. Our waiter, Paris, was outstanding - friendly, attentive, and made the experience even better. Service was quick even when it was busy. Perfect place to enjoy a great meal near the beach. Will definitely be back.
Great place. Try the barramundi and mimosas! Thank you to our server Kelly for making it a great experience!
We’ve been here many times when coming to the beach from the Valley. We discovered this a couple years ago and often come here for brunch or lunch. It usually very busy with a 10-25 minute wait, but that isn’t a problem as the restaurant is right off the beach so we can easily see the ocean, watch volleyball and see dozens of people walking up and down the strand. Gaby V was our server. She is friendly, good sense of humor and even thou busy came back a few times to make sure everything was good including the food. My wife & I highly recommend this restaurant for the food, the view and Gabi’s service.
The location, service, and views are fantastic. The portions are generous and the coffee is good and bottomless. I had the chicken chile verde burrito for breakfast and I don’t know if we’ve ever enjoyed a better breakfast experience. I’ll be eating here every time I’m back in LA. No doubt Beto is the reason this place is highly rated, he’s such a delight.
Delicious breakfast burritos...and they offer a Gluten Free tortilla! The Breakfast Wrap was great but I got the Chili Verde Wrap and it was fantastic! Antonio, our waiter was very friendly. The only drawback was there is construction going on next to the restaurant. It was a little distracting but would not deter me from coming back.
We have been coming here for decades. They have a great indoor outdoor set up right on the strand. The restaurant is dog friendly to the point of having a doggy menu (our dog loves the Beagle Bowl). The service is outstanding, especially Demetrio. There are lots of options for food from omelets or tofu scrambles to burgers and salads. Their pancakes are great and they serve real maple syrup! Parking is super easy in the city lot.
Transplant from Texas, only been out here a month. First time eating here, but I always walked by it going to the beach. Also never took myself out to eat alone. BETO my server, was attentive, but also made the experience very comfortable. The weather was overcast but the environment was still warm and after my meal here, I’m gonna lay out on the sand. Food was so good I forgot to take a picture when it arrived.
Perfect little cozy place on the beach for our first breakfast on our quick LA trip all the way from Alabama. Our server Beto was phenomenal, very helpful and knowledgeable. He noticed the sun on our backs and moved an umbrella behind us without being asked. The food was amazing, we had the making me Greek omelette with the peanut butter banana muffins and buttery hash browns as well as an order of French toast. We will definitely be back next trip!
Good Stuff in Hermosa Beach is absolutely incredible. We came with the whole family — kids, grandma, my wife, and her sister — and had one of the best breakfasts we’ve ever had. Our waiter, Beto, was outstanding: attentive, helpful, and genuinely friendly. He made sure everything went smoothly and accommodated my sister-in-law’s celiac/gluten allergy with no issues at all. The food was unbelievable — fresh, delicious, and perfectly prepared. On top of that, the location can’t be beat. Eating breakfast while watching volleyball games just a few feet away is such a one-of-a-kind experience. The views, the vibe, the service, and the food all came together to make this a perfect morning. Hands down the best breakfast in the area. We’ll definitely be back!
I had a wonderful breakfast at Good Stuff Hermosa Beach. The atmosphere was warm and inviting. The banana nut muffins with The whipped butter was absolutely delicious—creamy and flavorful. The server, Hugo, was attentive and friendly, making sure I was taken care of throughout my breakfast . I highly recommend this place for great food and excellent service. I’ll definitely be coming back!
I have high standards when it comes to eating out because I very much enjoy just cooking for myself.. so believe me when I say I was very pleased with my experience here The flavours and textures were all delicious and very satisfying. The servers (I believe ours was named Annie? With the henna freckles) was super duper kind, with the most genuine smile. On top of all of this, the fact that this place fries their food with coconut oil??? The absolute cherry on top. If I lived in the area I would eat here alll the dang time.
OUTSTANDING service! Best restaurant experience I’ve had in LA. Gabi was our server and she was just the best! Bubbly, attentive, and super friendly. The food was fire and I really enjoyed the cozy beach atmosphere. BONUS: I won a Pokémon raid here so that’s adding points. 10/10 would come here again. 🙇🏻♀️‼️
You can’t beat having a meal next to the beach with an ocean view! Breakfast was the order of the day with an egg omelette with the Fixin’s, side of fruit and a nice warm spice muffin with butter. Folks, the pictures speak for themselves… Have a look see, don’t be jealous, go down and enjoy a nice breakfast, lunch, or dinner at good stuff in Hermosa Beach!
Big, fresh breakfasts in a laid-back spot right on The Strand. We had a short wait for our table on a bustling Sunday morning, but the people-watching was so good we didn't even mind. The steak carnitas and Greek omelet were SO good. Generous portions, but we still managed to find room to split a side of fluffy buttermilk pancakes (with real maple syrup - yum!) Shout-out to Hugo for the great service!! We'll be back.

I've been wanting to try Good Stuff because it's such a popular spot in Hermosa, and while the experience was okay overall, it didn't really wow me. The service was definitely the highlight, our server was friendly, attentive, and kept everything moving smoothly even though it was busy. The food, on the other hand, just didn't stand out. I ordered buttermilk pancakes expecting them to be fluffy and fresh, but they came out dry and overcooked, which made them tough to enjoy. My brother ordered a burrito which was dry on the inside with no salsa on the side. The rest of the meal was fine but pretty basic... nothing that made me feel like this was a "must visit" breakfast place. It felt more like standard diner food than something special you'd go out of your way for at the beach. The location is great and the atmosphere is casual and welcoming, so I can see why people like coming here. But based on my visit, I'd say it's more of a convenient neighborhood spot than somewhere I'd rave about. One thing that was super frustrating while eating is that there is a lot of flies in the area. They provide bug spray which is funny and convenient but nobody wants flies on their food. Good service, but the food could definitely use some improvement.
It was our last day in Cali and we met up with family for brunch. A smaller group of 9 total. We originally wanted to brunch at Martha’s in Hermosa Beach which is a fave spot when we’re in town. Unfortunately, brunch time is super busy and Martha’s had a 1 hour wait. My sister-in-law mentioned Good Stuff Restaurant as another option and they only had a 30 minute wait for our group of 9 people. So we shifted over there and waited patiently. We met them there and put our name on the list. They had an abundance of seating indoors and outdoors. Very spacious and great location next to Hermosa Beach and the boardwalk. Unfortunately, we ended up waiting an hour until they were able to seat us. They sat us inside and we didn’t get to sit together either. We put the kids at one table and we sat at the other table with the baby. Our server Tadeo was nice and took good care of the kids table too. My in-laws ordered guava mimosas and my husband and I opted for just coffee. We are done drinking. Haha. I ordered the “Good Stuff Style” Huevos Rancheros. It was just ok. It had good ingredients and I liked that it was a bit healthier with the shredded cabbage but this dish lacked flavor and it didn’t look anything like the website photo. I also didn’t get any avocados. I asked for hot sauce and it was fine, but hot sauce shouldn’t mask the flavor of food. Husband got Teriyaki Steak Breakfast Bowl but as soon as we saw the plate, you could tell the steak was dry and overcooked. He said it was meh. Aside from the cool ambiance and great location, Good Stuff wasn’t worth it. And definitely not worth waiting an hour. My husband also paid for brunch since it was his sister’s family and the bill was a whopping $225 for 4 adults and 4 kids. The baby doesn’t count. Granted there were a few mimosas flowing. Even so, it was pricey for everything. Sorry Good Stuff but it wasn’t that good. With a name like that, you’d think they would uphold the name!
I love this restaurant's location. The ambiance alone makes it a 4 star. The only reason I'm taking a star off is that Yelp says they have a B health rating..yikes. They do have vegan options thoug…
