this place is a local gem! they have the best japanese italian fusion dish and their pastas are always so consistent & delicious. my favorite is the carbonara pasta and the seafood tomato pasta, but i’ve never ordered anything that’s disappointed me. they always make new special dishes which are fun to try as well.

I signed up for an elite event and was really excited to try this place out and to my surprise it's a spot I've tried out many years ago. This restaurant have been here for a long minute and I've totally forgot about it. It's inside a huge shopping center so there's ample amount of parking. First impression: you walk into a metal gate with covid warning sign. It brought back a lot of bad memories and Was wondering why this is still up. Did you not get the memo? (See pic) and then I proceeded to wait 24 minutes for the server to get us a table when the place was more then 2/3 empty with reservation signs on all the empty tables. I thought I was suppose to call for reservation but remembered another elite's review saying they walked right in and got seated right away. Apparently that's not the case for me. Am not sure if they're short staffed on a Saturday night as I only see a couple of servers working. Also the empty reserved tables never filled up while I was there. Finally got seated and ordered the creamy crab pasta, calamari, and seafood chips. I asked the waitress to help me chose between fried oyster, fried chicken and seafood chips and her reply was they're all

The Baseline: For Japanese restaurant the offerings must have the base ingredients of rice, noodles, fish, chicken, salads (aemono), and garnishes (nori/aenori), preparations must be treated well, and the environment must be welcoming. Food: The offerings here are mainly Japanese but this is really a fusion of Italian dishes with Japanese flair. The appetizer dishes we had were the fried chicken which was a chicken Karaage that was well seasoned with a good dipping sauce and the eggplant and meat sauce gratin which had too many bulky pieces of eggplant which made it slightly a difficult eating situation. The flavors for both dishes were good though. The seafood dip and chips had a good wasabi flavor for the dipping sauce but the tortilla chips dealt out of place for the theme making me at least wanting Italian bread pieces instead. For Entree dishes, we had the Spaghetti Vongole Japanese style, Spaghetti Carbonara, and Spaghetti Sea Urchin. The Vongole had some smaller sized clams with a mix of nori and buttery sauce which was an okay dish and I understand the intent of the dish but in essence it made me want a traditional white wine sauce with traditional Italian flavors for

Food Order: Spaghetti Carbonara (bacon, cream sauce) $20.80 Fried Lotus Roots Chips Consommé Flavor $7.00 Server: Namiya Bistro Beaux (its name comes from the idea of stylish or beautiful bistro) is located in the Eastgate Plaza, & I frequent the bakery & a couple of restaurants here, but rarely head to the north side so I'm unaware of their presence. This truly is a "hidden" gem... Bistro Beaux has been around for 25+ years. Their cuisine is a Japanese-Italian fusion of creative pasta dishes... can Bistro Beaux dethrone our family fav: SHB&R in Gardena? Read on... Warmly greeted at check-in & marked from the guest list, I was guided to the bar since I'm a single diner. I already perused the menu & knew what I wanted; there was a today's "special" menu & 2 things caught my eye: Fried Lotus Roots Chips Consommé Flavor, & Scallop & Mushroom Spicy Pollack Roe Cream Linguine; I ordered the Spaghetti Carbonara instead because I wanted to try their mainstay pasta. My appetizer came first & quick! And OMG... this stuff is crack... soooooo a-d-d-i-c-t-i-n-g!!! The lotus roots were perfectly fried (crispy like chips) & seasoned/marinated with consommé -- intense, rich essence of beef. I

I love this restaurant so much I don’t even live in Torrance, but drove from Hollywood for 45 mins to eat here 2 weeks in a row!Their veggie sticks is a must try! It comes with this pink yummy sauce which I believe fish egg in it. Since my friend took me there 2 years ago, I tried many different items, but pretty much everything’s so tasty! I love their spaghetti too. So far I tried Sea urchin, Squid ink and tonight carbonara sauce which was pretty big portion for me. The employee and the customers are pretty much all Japanese people and that’s kind of pretty odd to me, but then I speak Japanese like everyone else so it’s cool I guess. They open late so it’s very convenient for late night dining.
