Good Stuff Restaurant

Good Stuff is a local favorite. The line proves this on a daily basis. Their menu boasts a tasty variety of breakfast, lunch, and even dinner. While their dinner menu may have a small variety, the lunch and breakfast variety is very large. I’ve come here on several occasions, and I am always pleased with their dishes. Their service is always very good. They are always super busy, but they manage great service. They also boast a great location. They are literally walking distance from the beach, and the location has outdoor and indoor seating. Unfortunately, the ocean is not directly visible from the restaurant. It’s a great place to take people who don’t like breakfast for breakfast. They have the opportunity to order from the large lunch menu and have a great variety to choose from. I would recommend this place to my friends.

Simply overpriced.
Food is still somewhat decent, but the place is always packed (im not sure why)
If I had to guess, its because the Riviera lacks any other kid friendly breakfast place.

I love this place. Up there with my favorite breakfast/​brunch restaurants. I usually get the «carne asada steak».

The menu is perfect for me because I love a place that offers delicious high protein meals. The beach body fitness options both the JJ shake and Jonathan breakfast were awesome. The only downside to the experience was the waitress seemed overwhelmed so I had to flag her down for water refills and it seemed like a long wait to get the food. Otherwise the experience was good.

First visit here. Quite impressed with the food but not so much with the service
— indoor & outdoor seating
— water & coffee available for people waiting
— server wasn’t too friendly. Felt like she was rushing us. She also poured too much water in my friends cup that it overflowed. (She didn’t even seem too sorry about it)
BUT I definitely enjoyed my entrée!
CARNE ASADA & EGGS: Spanish rice, guacamole, pico de gallo, two eggs & three warm tortillas
+ eggs: chose how you want them! (I had them over easy)
+ tortillas: your choice of flour or corn (I personally think flour works better with breakfast foods)
+ carne asada is tender & seasoned to perfection! + Spanish rice, guacamole, and pico de gallo are great and complement everything very well

Love this place! We’ve been coming here for years. They’ve got a little bit of everything — something to please everyone in the family, whether it’s breakfast or dinner! Staff are very friendly and accommodating. I highly recommend for a casual, delicious meal. I didn’t give 5 stars b/​c ambience is so-​so, although fine for a casual eatery. Also, the food is good, but I feel like it has to be mind blowing to get 5 stars… On second thought, I’m adding a star. This place is 5star, when compared with similar casual spots, at same price point!

My wife and I stop and have pancake and eggs.

Why I Love Good Stuff
I used to live a few blocks away and was one of the first customers when this location opened, so I have eaten here countless times. I have always had a great meal and equally great service. You are at the beach. Life is good. They have daily specials, a counter and outdoor seating. This trip I had the Good Stuff Breakfast twice in two days. Everything was divine. Unsure when I will pass this way again, so got my share.

My husband and I no longer dine at Good Stuff because they are not accommodating to people who bring their dogs. If a seat near the gate is occupied, there is nowhere to tie your dog outside the patio. It’s unfortunate because we’ve always enjoyed the friendly staff there.
Gov. Jerry Brown signed a bill in 2014 allowing dogs to dine with owners if seated in an outdoor section of a restaurant. Good Stuff unfortunately has decided to continue to not allow dogs inside the patio.

We have been coming here for years, they are very kid friendly, healthy and when I’m sick I love the tortilla soup.
My top five:
–sweet potato fries
— tortilla and ground turkey salad
— barramundi with capers and quinoa
— California wrap
— tortilla soup

Great little place! Has a large menu with breakfast, lunch and dinner. Diner style of restaurant with a slight lean towards healthier options.
Restaurant is a little loud.
Good service.
Loved the mint ice tea.
Parking in the back.

3.5 stars for the food & service. Although our server dropped food on our clothes/​bags & one order was made incorrect, both the server and manager came to apologize and discount our meal.
I think another Unilocaler said it best when they said it’s «good stuff,» not bad or great stuff. The location is nice for sure and you can always tack on about 10 — 20% more for being close to the beach.
As for the food, there’s great variety and it’s definitely more on the healthy side. I saw pictures of the chile verde breakfast burrito so I decided to go with that. It was good, but not incredibly tasty. I also got to try the bacon and blue burger which I think drops a level with the wheat bun. That’s not really on the restaurant, more on the person who ordered it. Most things can be prepared fresh, but not all taste good when you substitute healthy parts in.
It was nice to have some parking in the back and the patio area is nice. Staff is very friendly here and I like the breakfast all day menu. It has appeal to many and although I won’t become a regular I hope it stays successful.

Got the barefoot cellar Chardonnay, California for only half price! Wine Wednesdays are the best! I’m planning on getting there NEW buffalo chicken tenders with zucchini fries as an app with the fam.
Omg the buffalo chicken tenders were so good and filling even though it was a starter!

There really is some good stuff to eat at this restaurant. First off, the service was stellar. Second, the menu is filled with a bunch of unique items that I wouldn’t find anywhere else. One such example was the California quesadilla that I ordered which contained scrambled eggs, bacon, avocado, mushroom, cheese, tomato, pico de gallo, sour cream, and a small assortment of fruit. It tastes as good as it sounds. My buddy got himself a breakfast wrap but it looked more like a huge burrito to me. They have health-​conscious items that are low in calories if that’s your fancy. Overall, it’s worth going to at least twice just to try out their interesting dishes.

Good Stuff Restaurant is definitely good but not great when you calculate in the bill. It is great to see so many healthy options and choices. The food is, how do you say, a little «branded.» Meaning it tastes all too familiar. For example, a white egg scramble with vegetables are all there but it doesn’t…jump. It definitely says good and it’s not due to lack of seasoning. It’s missing a home touch. MAINSTREAM HEALTHY! That’s what it is. It’s good and it’s healthy but it doesn’t quite hit home. Is this a problem? Not at all. Good Stuff is another healthy alternative to breakfast dining without the dirty mess.
The atmosphere is definitely nice. You have a choice of either indoor or outdoor seating right alongside the PCH (technically one tiny street over from PCH so you don’t have traffic whizzing right by you. The service is friendly and courteous, serving the satisfactory hospitality. Parking, however, might be limited but there is also street parking and other nearby lots but DO CHECK THE SIGNS before parking in any other lots.
You know the saying about a food establishment that goes above and beyond? Good Stuff Restaurant is definitely above but far from beyond. This includes the service, the food quality, and the prices. It’s there. Will I come back? There is a LOT of competition in the area, but if I have enough free time to sit and dine AND if prices aren’t too high, and there’s that «zing» to bring me back, perhaps.

My family and I recently checked out this place as we were looking for a new lunch spot. We enjoyed sitting on the outdoor patio.
I was impressed by the various options on the menu. I ordered the fried chicken wrap with the chicken and lime soup. I especially liked the soup but the wrap was decent as well. I was happy with the kids menu and my toddler really enjoyed his chicken and fruit. My dad and brother loved the fajitas. Husband liked his hamburger but said it wasn’t as hearty as he had hoped it would be.
Good service! The staff was patient and helpful with my moms food allergies. We will be back!

Not kid friendly or worth the price. Used to like this place but we’ve decided we will not be returning.
Kids high chair was parked at the end of a long booth. Problem is that the booth was too slim to allow the chair to fit under it. So my toddler was sitting far from the table and far from his plate. An adult would have problems eating like this. Of course my child did too.
Ordered the upgraded grilled fish and received the fried fish sticks. No tartar sauce or salsa. Serving size was laughable for $ 11. Other entrees in our party were also not worth writing home.
As an aside, there was a ‘New Mexico Breakfast Burrito’ on the menu. My hometown wasin NM and I can assure you there was nothing New Mexican about it. :/​
UPDATE: The business has commented below re the height of the ‘standard’ high chair yet has not understood the issue or tried to fit the high chair to said long booth. If they did, they would find that the table and chair heights are not the issue. The issue is that the booths protrude and make it impossible for the high chair to sit UNDER the table. My child had to eat by reaching his arms as far as they could reach. And of course he didn’t. I had an upset toddler the whole time! I don’t care if it you ordered ‘standard’ high chairs — I just care that my kid can reach his food!

Came here last night after my work out with my friends, i wanted to eat something healthy but my friends wanted to eat here.
The restaurant its good just on the pricey side, i usually dont care but salads for 14 dollars, it was cheaper to eat breakfast or their wraps for sure .
Customer service was great waitress and host.

3.5 stars
Good Stuff is decent. We came here on a Saturday afternoon for brunch and got seated quickly. There’s an outdoor seating area and I saw a few dogs, so that’s a plus that they allow pets!
They have both breakfast and lunch foods, but we decided to go with breakfast.
I ordered the ½ cinnamon roll French toast with scrambled eggs and sausage. I was expecting a lot more flavor from my French toast. It was mediocre and didn’t wow me :(It tasted like a more bland version of regular French toast.
My BF ordered the carne asada and eggs. I got a couple of bites and it was good. However, nothing too amazing. Just your basic steak and eggs haha.
Overall, decent restaurant with mediocre food.

My go to breakfast spot before work when I have to be in LA/​Redondo Beach. It helps that’s it’s 2 minutes a way and on the way to the lab, but this place can stand on it’s own without any help from it’s location.
They have tons of healthy options and will custom make you anything. It can get a little cold by the back door and sometimes the outside tables are blindingly bright. However, if you want an awesome Mexican protein breakfast or breakfast salad this is your place. They also have a rewards program.
