HT Grill

Classy yet casual, no more food problems, great promos every night!

This place is great -- it covers all the bases. You can wear a t-shirt or dress up, sit in the bar or dining room, or the best part, the outdoor patio. It's all great. Loose and casual atmosphere, but not in a TGI Friday's kind of way. Very classy.

Admittedly, this place had some food issues but in the last few times these issues seem to have been resolved. They have great promotions, like half price bottles of wine on Wednesdays, and (my favorite) 2 for 1 martinis on Tuesday. I guess I've been lucky with the service, I've never had a problem other than maybe the food taking longer than it should.

The patio is the only one in the area that has outdoor dining with alcoholic beverages (a must!). And sitting around the firepit with a glass of wine is just the best!

IMPRESSIVE

by frankievankempen at Citysearch

I love going out to dinner. I love atmosphere and great service, food and wine are passions. When I went to HT grill in redondo beach, I recieved all those things, and at a reasonable price. I went on a wednesday night for dinner and discovered they have what they call "wine down wednesdays", which gave me and my friends half off any bottle of wine under $50 bucks. Awesome right! I had the halibut and it was very refreshing, not overly spiced or sauced, you could actually taste the fish, very fresh! One of my friends had the rib eye steak, and it was amazing. I'll probably order that the next time I go there. I looked into other specials they had, Tuesday Martini night is buy one get one free (i'll be there for that). Simply put, I WILL BE BACK! They did a great job from the moment I entered! Thank You HT Grill, you got a fan!

Heinous cuisine

by doglips at Citysearch

My experiece with this joint was heinous....the bartender was obviosly drunk and completely disrespected my daughter...while he made our drinks, We overheard him berating and disrespecting us...at one point we heard him say, "chinga those dirtbreaths", and he also was letting it be known that he wanted to give away our table to another server.....The filet Mignot was way overcooked and I wished that Gordon Ramsey could come up in their grill and show them how to cook......This place caters to drunks and cougars who only eat twice a week.....Paul Hennesey is no fool..He is a smart and savy buisness-man......but He has built His empire upon booze, not food...but I am truly from Ireland, and his food is neither Celtic nor Gaelic, and his Niche is in liquids.....and His mind thinks only in numbers.........it is a shame that some drift so far from the Homeland.........Sinn Fein.............there is great food on the Island green

• Pros: dirty martinis
• Cons: bad service
