Chef Melba's Bistro

"A real gem."

- Zagat Survey

"What makes every bite a little tastier is that the place feels less like a restaurant, and more like Chef Melba invited you into her own kitchen."

- AOL/CitySearch

"Do not be deceived by its diner-esque front, the cuisine here is of the very highest calibre. I lived in Hermosa Beach for over a year and ate all over Los Angeles only to find this: by far the best restaurant I went to in LA; in my last week."

- The Guardian UK

"Fabulous!"
