We popped in for dinner last night (Sunday Nov 26th) and had a great meal. The service was fantastic, and the food outstanding. There is even a speakeasy at the back with some live piano on Thursday and Sundays. We missed seeing Brooke but she needs her own time like we all do. Maybe next year.

During an airport layover, we decided to venture to Playa Provisions. We got to the coffee/ice cream place around 4pm, ice cream (lemon olive oil pistachio) was super delicious. We had reservations in the restaurant at 5PM. Great team, positive staff energy, food came out quick and absolutely delicious. Would come back in a heartbeat. Great concept and amazing menu

A few of my friends and I went to Playa Provisions for lunch on a weekend. The place was packed, so we are glad we made a reservation ahead of time. I didn't explore the inside of the restaurant in its entirety, but from what I could see, this restaurant has multiple seating areas, and each area has a different style/vibe. I was able to request seating in a specific section, and the host was kind enough to accommodate that request. Our server was very knowledgeable and walked us through the entire menu and her personal favorites. We ordered a dozen oysters for the table and picked multiple different types to try them all. The oysters were fresh. The oysters came with 3 sauces, and all of them were pretty good.
I got their red adobo chilaquieles, and it was delicious. The dish wasn't served as hot, so it cooled down fast, but that's okay. It definitely packed the flavors I was looking for. Overall, it's a great restaurant. Plus, the parking in this area was super easy, which is a rare thing in LA.

This was my first visit, though I've heard about Playa Provisions from friends. We met some friends for brunch on a Saturday morning. It was hard to decide what to get because everything looked so good! I started with the cinnamon roll with candied bacon on top...and that was spectacular! We sampled the scallops and a couple of the oysters...very good. And I opted for the crab and shrimp Benedict - also wonderful. Great coffee, attentive service, fun atmosphere...all made for a lovely morning. My only issue is that the acoustics are challenging. It was super hard to hear our dining companions which was a bit frustrating...we were meeting a friend we hadn't seen in quite awhile and it was difficult to hear the conversation.

Great place to stop if you’re biking Redondo beach. I had the breakfast sandwich and it was stellar. Girlfriend had the salmon bagel. She said the salmon was absolutely delicious but the bagel was pretty lackluster. Anyways, Atmosphere was nice! Can get crazy busy at lunch time though.

I am a huge Brooke Williamson fan from watching her compete and come up with amazing dishes on Top Chef and Food Network.
So, as fans, we had to visit her restaurant. The setting and location is beautiful. So coastal and beachy! The food was so close to *great* but seems like it just fell short? We tried the fish tacos, the yellowfin tuna and tiger shrimp ceviche, and the salmon toast. All of it was good, just no “wow.” Maybe ordered the wrong thing, would still go back and try again!

Reservations recommended, which we had, but it appears that today, Tuesday was not as busy, 6:45. Seated immediately in a very comfortable heated patio. Our server Great, attentive, friendly and provided excellent recommendations. Don't recall her name but she was from Ohio! One could feast on the side dishes to share . The calamari, black ink risotto, crab Mac n cheese all great. For main entrees, salmon salad, fish and chips and lobster roll. All generous portions. The dressing on salad was light, sweet and refreshing. We are not alcoholic drinkers so our bill was reasonable for all we did order. However the cocktails looked very tempting, combinations interesting. We were also told the menu changes. Great experience

Well, it already has 1000 reviews saying it’s good. I couldn’t agree more.
Friendly service. The food does not take long to be served but it does take time. It’s worth it.
Clean restroom. Very important.
Good vibes.
I did see a fly inside the dessert display. So I’m avoiding that… but it was just that day…
Parking valet is $10 but just drive around and look for free parking. Read signs.

Made our first trip to Playa Provisions today to visit the restaurant of my fav Top Chef and our brunch time experience did not disappoint. From amazing fresh, chilled oysters to out of this world lobster roll, and shrimp and crab eggs benedict delicious beyond words! The food was everything that I expected it to be. Even in a packed dining room the service was top notch, and our waitress was knowledgeable and lovely. The restaurant itself is fun and interesting with an earthy beach feel. We couldn't leave without purchasing some glasses from the store and taking home a pint from the Small Batch ice cream counter. We'll definitely be back soon -Thanks PP!

Last meal on the west coast and visited Brooke's place. Overall pretty good. Bar tenders were very attentive and we enjoyed happy hour. Busy busy! We tasted our way through many pieces in the menu. Started with the drab claws. They were delicious. Loved mixing the dipping sauces. I thought $9 was a little pricey but that's LA. Next was a catch of the day barramundi. It was the star! Perfectly moist with a nicely crispy skin. And the cold quinoa salad was an interesting contrast. Cauliflower side was tasty! Next was pork shoulder which was fork tender and tasty. The only disappointment was the corn on the cob. Nothing could have made this taste good. It was way to mature for corn. Very starchy!! They should make the supplier take it back. It also could have used a little more salt to meld the umami flavor. Tom Colichio would have driller her in Top Chef for that. Also they must have gotten a cheap price on cilantro because a large handful covered each entree. Too much for a non-cilantro fan. Service was spot on without any pause, great job!

First time there - cannot wait to go back! The layout is unique in that there are three areas for different food and beverage experiences (dinner - ice cream - whiskey bar)! The patio area with the firepits is very cozy and lends itself to easy conversation accompanied by their amazing charcuterie and cheese plate. The crab mac'n cheese is a must! Every staff member we encountered were perfectly delightful!!
Jake Lucier
Went there for dinner and drinks, saw the menu, and HAD to go back the next morning for breakfast. Awesome place, great staff, incredible food.
Steve Dallis
The 4 stars are for the tasty food. I would have give 5 stars, but the staff was a bit disappointing and bordered on rude. As a first time visitor, the menu was confusing ( the grab and go items shouldn't be on the menu of you can't order them).

My favorite place to eat west of the 405... great drinks... awesome food... superb ambiance... kickass staff.
Jaci Lynn Burke
Rachel was our server, she was the best!! Never rushed us, enjoyed everything, great all the way around 😁
Tanya Powell
The food was very good and staff was very friendly . We accidentally found this place since the restaurant we we’re going to was close across the street . Lol happy we did . We will be back ! Thank you 😊
Beth Cone Kramer
Insanely happening brunch steps from beach. Loved the beet cured salmon and cocktails looked amazing. We had to wait half hour, which wasn't terrible --and when we went to ice cream counter in front, they had run out of frozen cookie dough -- how good does that sound? Otherwise, would be five star -- and we'll have to go back!

Best coffee I’ve found of two whilst in LA. Visiting from London and this place is home from home- food brilliant too as are the staff. ✔️✔️✔️(Asmy old school master used to say)
Kevin Krause
A great find in oh so busy uber Hipster West LA! Where else in West LA can you be this close to the Pacific Ocean while eating and drinking good-great food WITHOUT the LA congestion?! This modern open air place has struck the perfect balance between SoCal beachy laid-back vibe with a great selection of food and drinks all in an awesome location. Minus most of the Boho-Chic/Hipsters that have taken over so much of coastal West LA...enJoy!
Nicholas Roybal
Horrible service. Absolutely horrible. Norms, McDonalds has better service. Avoid this place. Save your money; save your time. It is not worth it. It needs better management and better servers. Absolutely horrible.
Joey Gonzalez
The food was spot on... Just amazing!
The restaurant was a little unorganized and incredibly loud.
No a place for an intimate dinner for two.
Did I mention the food was amazing?!?!
Jocelyn Stuart
Lovely environment & our server was very attentive. The restaurant and bar can be quite noisy & prices are a bit steep for what you get. Overall, we liked the food.
Theresa Miller
Loved our breakfast at Playa Provisions yesterday. Great post workout spot. My smoky tomatoes with lentils and a soft poached egg were excellent. Wonderful smoky flavor and perfectly cooked egg.
Norman Santos
An amazing spot to relax, hang out and in our case.. get the day started! Great lunch and evening hang out place also! Brewery and ice cream made here as well. A couple outdoor seats, some great hosts and a fine dish later and you'll be happy you came!
