We donโ€™t know who comes up with this stuff, but we admire them. Someone designated today and we gotta say weโ€™re into it. No working, no cleaning, and certainly no cooking for you, Ma. โ

Bust out the checkered blanket one more time! Weโ€™re packing up summerโ€™s last long lunch for you and yours, to go. Just place your order now (linked in our bio!), round up the crew, and stop by Love & Salt on the way to the beach, the park, or your own backyard. โค๏ธโ 
โ 
Itโ€™s the last day you can *technically* wear white for the season, but we donโ€™t recommend it. Our cuisine is Italian-inspired after all and weโ€™d hate for a little red sauce to be the reason you break the dress code. โ

Itโ€™s our not-so secret secret, and regulars know . . . . Even when you canโ€™t see it, itโ€™s there: Cacio e Pepe, one of the big 4 Roman pastas and one of Executive โ€™s personal favorites. Heโ€™s honed his recipe for years and you can experience a taste of Rome anytime right here on our little strip of Manhattan Beach.โ 
โ 
Sometimes itโ€™s on the menu, sometimes itโ€™s not, but you can always order itโ€”just ask! Cheese & Pepper ๐Ÿค Love & Salt. Simple ingredients, seriously delicious.

The South Bayโ€™s favorite wood-fired pizza is here for dinner EVERY day, Monday through Sunday, and this just in: itโ€™s now available for weekend brunch too!โ 
โ 
Stop in for a pie on Saturdays & Sundays, 10:00โ€“2:30 (last orders at 2:00) or order for takeout. Pizza on the beach is an elite move. ๐ŸคŒโ

Hey, Mom & Dad: You survived summertime. After getting back into the routine of packing lunches, early mornings, pick-ups and drop-offs, treat yourself to a night off. You more than deserve it. โ

๐˜Œ๐˜น๐˜ต๐˜ณ๐˜ข ๐˜ฆ๐˜น๐˜ต๐˜ณ๐˜ข! Are we referring to our new brunch itself or the fact that the papes are picking up the news? Letโ€™s go with both. ๐Ÿ—ž๏ธ๐Ÿณ๐Ÿ˜Ž

Thank you to My Travelling Circus writer Samantha Kuhr for her deep dive on the return of our Italian-meets-SoCal coast brunch to Love & Salt right here in downtown Manhattan Beach. She covers everything from our history (did you know this space was our family restaurant Cafรฉ Pierre for 37 years) to her recommendations on what to order (a sky-high 5-egg breakfast sando, anyone?). Head to our bio link for the full scoop.

While some restaurants start with a menu, ours started with a beliefโ€”that food only needs two ingredients to be great: Love & Salt. ๐Ÿค๐Ÿง‚โ 
โ 
Itโ€™s an ethos that has guided everything weโ€™ve done since 2014, when our family transformed this space that had been home to the legendary Cafรฉ Pierre for nearly 37 years. Rather than erase its history, we built on it, creating a restaurant rooted in hospitality and flavor, inspired by Italy, shaped by Southern California, and designed to become part of this generationโ€™s Manhattan Beach memories.โ 
โ 
From every handmade pasta and wood-fired pizza to our thoughtfully curated wines and cocktails, from brunch to dinner, from private parties to big celebrations, every detail reflects that same simple idea, our own namesake. When you begin with care, you donโ€™t need much else.
