Fritto Misto - Hermosa Beach

Some real good Italian food. We chose to sit outside on a nice chilly evening. There was a heater next to us. This place serves bread while you order for food. The bread has a hard crunchy crust and is light and soft inside. For the main course we had Pillows creamy pesto and built our own pasta spinach ravioli with Arrabbiata sauce. I enjoy hot food and Arrabbiata is perfect for anyone who likes hot food. Our waiter was super nice and we were provided quick service. Menu card is very elaborate and self explanatory plus it has a separate section for vegetarian food!

Atomic pasta is absolutely outstanding. I always have to stop here when I'm in Hermosa Beach!!

It's a really cute place which is only 4 star worthy. 4 reasons why I'd take off that 1 star: 1. Noisy 2. Cajun pasta is NOT spicy but is marked spicy written on the menu 3. Tiramisu was just too mascarpony... it didnt have that balance of coffee and vanilla flavor coming through 4. Limited alcohol menu Why 5 stars though: 1. The wait staff manager deserve 6-stars 2. Veggie lasagna is to kill for! As a semi-vegeterian I picked this place for the veggie options so I'm gonna stay biased here.

Always a must for me. I love eating at Fritto Misto. The pillows with checa are a go to. Service is great and quick. Food is delicious.

Homey local Italian spot with large portions. Came here in a group of four on a Friday around 7:30 and waited about 15-20 min to get a table. Metered street parking only (no private parking). Indoor dining only. Credit cards accepted. Two gender neutral restrooms available behind the hostess stand. They can accommodate large groups. Kid-friendly. They give you complimentary bread with olive oil and basalmic vinegar. I got the chicken Parmesan Hermosa which was huge, and made for great leftovers the following day for lunch. The shrimp gnocchi is also a good call if you like creamy white sauces. For those who are pickier, you can opt to customize your own pasta. The tiramisu “for two” can easily feed four people and is a good dessert option. Overall, for a spot that’s close to the pier but still with a local flair, this is the right call.
