Addi's Tandoor

Should You Book Addi's Tandoor?

Getting a table at Addi's Tandoor in Redondo Beach is easy — walk-in friendly and without the reservation pressure you'd associate with South Bay dining destinations that require planning weeks in advance. That accessibility is worth noting upfront, because it changes how you approach the visit. You don't need to build your evening around a booking window. But easy to get into doesn't mean it should be an afterthought: Indian tandoor cooking at a neighborhood level is a specific format, and whether this is the right call depends on what you're after.

Addi's Tandoor sits at 800 Torrance Blvd in Redondo Beach, a low-key address that signals neighborhood restaurant rather than destination dining. For a first-timer, that framing matters. Arrive expecting a focused tandoor-forward menu in a casual setting, not an elaborate multi-course production. The atmosphere here skews practical and relaxed — the energy is low-key, the room won't compete with the kind of noise levels you'd encounter at a waterfront bar on a Friday night, and that makes it a workable option if conversation is part of the plan.

On the question of private dining and group bookings: the address and format suggest this is better suited to small groups than large-party events. If you're organizing a group dinner in Redondo Beach and need a dedicated private room with AV equipment and event staffing, you'll want to look at venues with confirmed private dining infrastructure. For a casual group meal where the main room works fine and the booking is low-friction, Addi's Tandoor is a practical choice. Book with enough lead time for larger tables , a few days out should be sufficient given the booking difficulty rating here , but don't expect the same private dining architecture you'd find at a dedicated event venue.

For context on what tandoor-style Indian cooking delivers at this price tier in Southern California: it's a format built around the clay oven, producing dishes with char and smoke that you won't replicate at home. That's the draw. If the cuisine type isn't your priority and you're choosing purely on ambiance or waterfront access, Redondo Beach has alternatives that deliver on those specific criteria. But if Indian cooking is the call, Addi's Tandoor is the accessible, low-commitment entry point in this part of the South Bay.

First-timers should know: because specific menu details, hours, and pricing aren't confirmed in our current data, call ahead or check directly before visiting. The address is confirmed at 800 Torrance Blvd #101, Redondo Beach, CA 90277.
