About Us

Sosta

Sosta, located at 439 Pier Avenue in Hermosa Beach, California, is a bar, cafe, food, and restaurant that offers an Italian kitchen and tasting experience. The name "Sosta" comes from the native tongue of Luca Manderino, meaning "a resting place." Founded in 2005, Sosta aims to share the simplicity and elegance of Italian cuisine inspired by Manderino's upbringing in Venice, Italy.

Luca Manderino, the founder of Sosta Cucina, grew up in the kitchens of Venice under his mother's guidance. With parents who owned restaurants and a hotel, Manderino learned the art of business from a young age. After moving to America in 1995 to pursue his dream of flying professionally, Manderino eventually found his passion for food calling him back.

In 2004, Manderino opened La Sosta Enoteca (now known as Sosta) in Hermosa Beach with the help of his mother, who flew in from Venice to join him in the kitchen on opening night. Since then, Sosta has become a beloved Italian dining experience in the beach cities of the South Bay area. Manderino continues to bring a simple, eclectic, and Venetian-inspired menu to his customers, showcasing the flavors of his home in Italy.

"Top notch service. A little dark inside but nice none the less. Small and quite dinning area which was very welcomed. Food was great. Octopus salad was quite delicate in flavors, octopus cooked very well. Gnocchi with lobster was phenomenal. Carbonara was a good alternative if not wanting sea food. Bith had a good amount of meat.. The tiramisu was some of the best I ve ever had."

"My husband and I love coming here for special occasions. The prices are high, but worth it for the unique flavors. This is not Americanized Italian food. This is very authentic Italian food. The servers were also authentic Italians along with accents. We shared the yellowtail crudo, the spaghetti and mullet eggs, and the lamb. The food was amazing!! The service was great."

"As though you're in Italy... exceptional ambiance, perfect music, amazing food, steak cooked perfectly medium rare. Suggestions: allow the staff to choice the wine with your entre choice. ❤️"

"Very good food and service, just extremely expensive. For 6 of us the bill was $1400 (tip included). We ordered the cutting board appetizer, steak, mushroom specials, wine, but it was still a bit eye opening when the check arrived. The wait staff was phenomenal. Almost out of a movie because the guy told us about the specials like we were in a high end Italian restaurant in the heart of Rome. It was quite impressive. They were very attentive. Everything was delicious. But just know it's going to be expensive."

"5 stars is not enough. Luca, the owner has brought a piece of Italy to Hermosa Beach. My wife’s family is Italian, and believe me it is hard to find authentic food in comparison to her family’s home cooking. Sosta’s menu is incredible, and every dish we ordered was fresh, beautifully presented and incredibly delicious. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a truly authentic Italian experience. We will definitely be back!"
