• Italian • Manhattan Beach

Love and Salt is a story that begins with Cafe Pierre, a restaurant birthed by Guy Gabriele in 1977 to bring a taste of France to Los Angeles’ South Bay. While Cafe Pierre was a beloved part of the community for nearly 37 years, in 2014, Guy and his daughter Sylvie Gabriele, now the owner of Love and Salt, closed the restaurant to bring new life to the iconic space.Love and Salt is a philosophy: that food needs only two ingredients to be great. It’s a sensibility that informs the feeling in the restaurant and the dishes on the menu — Italian-inspired with Southern California soul. An approachable wine list and classic cocktail program similarly reflect the vibrant SoCal setting of the restaurant, located just steps from the Manhattan Beach pier.

    We highly recommend this restaurant! It is one of the best restaurants in Manhattan Beach. The cocktails pair well with the menu, and the food was fresh and delicious! The chopped salad, meatballs and pizzas were superb! Couldn’t have asked for a better night out. We will be returning to this restaurant!

    One of the few places in LA that aren’t just smoke and mirrors—it has the ambiance, service, and food down, without any pretension. Follow their advice and order to share for the full experience. Also, do not skip on the brussels sprouts—I am actually daring to say that they rival The Lark’s in Santa Barbara. Unfortunately I believe they are seasonal, but they alone were enough to make me want to come back!

    My ribeye was probably the best I’ve had to date. Our server, Mike was top notch..v friendly and professional. Even though it was our first time, they made it feel like we were beloved regulars. As soon as we set down, I was presented with a sweet birthday card signed by several staff members..a nice, intimate touch..ambiance was lively but not too loud. It was such a fun, delicious night.
