Reviews for Nomad Eatery in El Segundo, CA

Fantastic ambiance, menu and staff. The menu is wonderfully eclectic and the story behind it is amazing. We had the pleasure of... sitting at Troy’s table who was absolutely lovely. We met the owner of the restaurant, Scott, who was super nice andwelcoming. The food was ridiculously good, can’t wait to go back and try more! Read more

I loved the atmosphere and cleanliness, the food was okay, nothing special. Very very pricey considering the served portions.... Our server was not paying attention when we were ordering. We ordered a lamb wrap and when she repeated, she said: okay, so onechicken wrap. We asked for no onions and it was filled with onions! Drinks were okay. Read more

Formally known as Jackson’s, still owned and operated by the same owner Nomad Eatery in El Segundo is a perfectly hidden... little gem tucked away off Rosecrans and behind some office buildings. Plenty of free parking offered in the parkingstructure. We started our evening at the bar and ordered one of the house crafted cocktails called From the Heights of MachuPichu, it was very tasty. The bar tender was very friendly and kept us entertained watching him mix drinks. Dinner was verygood, the food was visually appealing and tasted even better than it looked. We started with some fresh steamed clams and ourmain course was lamb kabob and chimichurri steak frites. The chef/owner walked around all night and spoke to almost everyoneabout the meal. There was only one waitress and another person running food, she seemed very busy but her timing was alwaysperfect. Nice place, I highly recommend it. Read more

I can't say enough of great things about NOMAD eatery from the server Elisha (she took so good care of us! & Just So Awesome)... the Crispy Chile Relleno, ( my favorite) mussels in in this Delicious coconut garlic sauce, steak was cooked perfect, theflavor of the Lebanese chicken was cooked beautifully nice and moist, then to top it off at the end was the chocolate soufflewhich just melted in your mouth at every bite you would taste along with the coconut rice pudding which was also pretty goodcan't wait to go back and try some other items on their menu this place left me wanting more.

Today's Sunday Grub-Day foodie adventure brought us to a great restaurant. Originally we were going to dine at Eddie V's but... access was denied because we were not wearing the right attire. So we walked across the street to see what other restaurantswere in the area..... Nomad Eatery was our pick. Everything we ordered from the menu was great nothing disappointed our tastebuds. We will definitely be back! Read more

I really enjoyed the environment and service. Food however is not great or may be we didn't choose right options. Drinks: ... Watermelon spiritz was decent. Pineapple and ginger spiritz was good with ginger being on strong side. Food: Hummus was goodbut slightly on saltier side. Butternut squash was different and tasty. The biggest disappointments were main meals. My husbandhad vegan kofta. It pretty much tasted like soy chunks with weird texture and super dry. My plate - seafood soup was even moredisappointing. I asked the server if the bowl was big enough and I was told it was massive. When the soup came, it wasdefinitely not massive. I totally understand inflation and it's impacts to food price and I normally don't mind paying $30 forseafood soup. But this soup was not worth that much. It had so much onions (gigantic chunks) and gigantic tomatoes (picturesattached). Never had shellfish soup with so much onions and tomatoes. That was ridiculous way to fill the plate when someonepaid for shellfish soup, not onion soup. Broth was so salty, my tongue felt dry after eating. Hot chocolate dessert tasted likea warm brownie. Whip cream was very good and fresh. Umm... no we won't be going back. Read more

Amazing spot. Very friendly. Delicious flavors. We found this restaurant waiting for traffic to die down. They have a nice happy... hour menu. Plenty of tasty meal options, and an extensive drink menu. We got the house made lemonade, HH Margarita, HH Chickenand Veg Skewer, and the Wok Fried Seared Shrimp. All were great. Loved the shrimp, and lemonade! Our server Hayli was warm,kind, knowledgable, attentive, and sweet! Highly recommend this spot. Cool outdoor-ish space, dog friendly, and plenty ofparking! Read more

I have been to the restaurant twice and haven't yet written a review (due to my recent schedule). The delay in my review doesn't... at all reflect my feelings about this restaurant, because this is a must visit for all and has become one of my go tos with mywife. We are currently working our way through the menu. The pita and hummus is a must every time. We have tried the sweet andsour pineapple pork, kebobs, scallop ceviche, kale salad, branzino, bolognese, and steak frites. NOTHING has disappointed. Wehave enjoyed the portions and the flavors and the uniqueness of each dish. Their $15 corkage fee is a game-changer for us. Weenjoy the ability to bring a nice wine to a wonderful restaurant. Their cocktails are also enjoyable with a good selection atthe bar. Alice has been our waitress twice and we have enjoyed her both times. The owner, Scott is fostering a "come as youare" vibe making it welcoming and home-y for a date night, a birthday party, a catch up with friends or a family outing. Theyare currently building out a larger patio space that sounds like it is going to be amazing. In the meantime, it wouldn't hurt tocheck it out now and support a small business. You won't regret it.
