Strand Brewing Co. - Torrance

1star for not being open when on yelp it said it was going to be. But! My rating will change when I actually get to try their beers, more importantly their bbq

You must experience this Brewery! The atmosphere is family friendly! They allow your fur babies as well. The beef prime rib is seasoned to perfection! Your palette will thank you. They are l only open Saturday and Sunday! You must also try the Cole slaw and their home made pickled blend mixture and their giant sized chocolate chip cookies. The staff is friendly and helpful. There is a really simple menu and you order from a machine at the counter! There are restrooms and ample seating! There are numerous beers you can choose from and they sell hats and t-shirts with the Strand Brewery logo and information. I love the artwork on the wall. Grab your family and friends and go experience this amazing brown wrapped food experience which is delightful!!

The brewery itself is nice and spacious with ample parking. They seem to have a nice selection of beer as well. But I went for the APL BBQ that day. The menu is very limited with basically 3 mains: pork ribs, beef ribs, and pulled pork. Each meal is meant for around 2 people so go with a friend. I got the pork ribs with an extra side of cornbread. The ribs were tender but not quite fall off the bone (don't think it's supposed to be). The ribs were not drenched in sauce and the sauce was pretty sweet. I enjoyed them but I'm not sure it's something I would crave. But the cornbread! Now that is some good stuff! Definitely wouldn't mind eating that every day!

Would love to give 5 stars but never got to try it. I waited in line 20 minutes to hear “sorry we ran out.” They’re open from 12-5 pm on Saturday. Shouldn’t be a known popular spot and then run out by 1:30. Need to plan better than that imho. That’s a little soon. That being said, the place was spotless clean, staff friendly and apologetic. Very cool atmosphere. Being a bbq fanatic I was looking forward to good Q and drove an hour to try it. Some other time I guess. Food wise all I saw getting served before they stopped serving was some good looking pork ribs sold by full rack with two slices of toast and sauce drizzled on it as seen in IG videos. Also looked like there was pulled pork sammiches available. Also saw stacked up premade sides of slaw and cornbread I think. That looks like all they were serving this Saturday. Didn’t see any other offerings like brisket, links, beef ribs or chicken. If you’re gonna go get there right when they open if you want any food. Also, they don’t answer the phone. I tried calling for 20-30 minutes to verify if they were open and what was on the days menu. All I got was a machine. So don’t call just go and hope for the best. To be fair I will give an updated rating AFTER I try the food if I get the chance.
