• Southeast Asian • Huntington Beach
Booked 18 times today
Behind an unmarked door adjacent to the wine room, guests are transported to District 1 (China Town) in Saigon via Blackhouse’s 28-seat restaurant-within-a-restaurant, LSXO. A spinoff of the Little Sister brand (Manhattan Beach, Redondo Beach & Downtown Los Angeles), LSXO is love letter to the culture, heritage, and lineage of Vietnam (Vuong’s relatives hail from the region). While Little Sister is known for its French Vietnamese menu, LSXO follows the same Southeast Asian inspiration with a more refined feel. “There is no signage for LSXO—you can spot the entrance of it tucked into a section inside Bluegold, but you’ll have to know it’s there. While Bluegold is light, bright, and airy, LSXO is its darker, edgier little sister,” says Vuong. “Both restaurants operate out of the same kitchen, though the menus are completely different. LSXO offers straight-up, honest, home-style Vietnamese cuisine—the type of food I grew up eating with my grandparents in the San Gabriel Valley

    I can’t believe the friendly service and happy vibe we experienced this afternoon for lunch at the absolutely BEST Brazilian Steakhouse in So Cal.! Christmas time means an increase in customers, yet the speed of the gauchos slicing the meats and cocktail service was faster and more attentive than ever! Thanks so much to Nelson, Roberto, Renato, Gilbert, Leah and Valerie for their outstanding services. Now the meats: my favorite, lamb steak and chops, bottom sirloin and bacon wrapped chicken and steak were phenomenal! The sweet cheese bread rolls and everything at the buffet were super fresh and DEElicious! Why go anywhere else? Merry Christmas everyone and see you on New Year’s Eve!!! Ken & Kathi wish you all the best!!

    Loved the experience. Definitely will return. Food was very very tasty. I'd give food 4.5 stars if possible but because the shaky shaky beef was not as tender as everyone raved about, I gave 4 stars. Cocktails and papaya salad were superb.

    Met family for lunch here as my aunt and uncle are regulars here at Dukes and Huntington Beach. Beautiful beach vibe. Love the location, the staff and the atmosphere. We had a calamari appetizer, which was very good. Also ordered fish tacos. Very good just a little messy to eat. Enjoyed our visit.

    This is real, authentic Italian pasta, the best you’ll find in the south coast area. It seriously tastes just like pasta you’d find at a nice place in Italy. The ragu is my favorite. In my opinion the prices for pasta are a little high for such a casual place, but I keep coming back, so clearly it’s worth it. The service is always very good as well. The patio is nice with a fire pit and good heaters. It’s in the camp which provides nice ambiance, but parking is a nightmare. It took us 15 minutes to valet.
