Depot - Torrance

I planned a Memorial event for my mom at the Depot in Torrance and I can't say enough about how wonderful and accommodating they were throughout the entire process, which made it easier on me to wrangle while also mourning the loss. From the first time I called Chef Michael to inquire about possibly hosting an event he was incredibly kind, empathetic and straightforward on how to arrange for an event. On the day of the event, the Kimono room was set up and clean, and when we had several unexpected guests, the staff quickly set up an extra table for them and were incredibly kind with impeccable service. The meal was family-style with a variety of things so people could pick and choose what they wanted. I didn't get to eat much of my meal as I was up and down trying to coordinate people, but I did enjoy a delicious croissant type of roll and the pumpkin or squash soup which I thought was delicious.Asit relates to events, they have easels you can use, and microphones for speaking, and the cost to host the event is solely for the food and beverage, there is no cost for the room and you have your own private space for an extended period of time. The chef also came around and spoke to guests during the luncheon which made it feel really special.I also want to call out Brett who was our main host and led the servers during the lunch who was personable, kind, patient, funny and really made the luncheon special.I appreciate the Depot and all they did to support us at this time and would 100% consider hosting another event there in the future (hopefully something unrelated to the loss of a family member.

Very chic place and the service was fantastic and the food was amazing.

Went with group and they forgot to put in the order in the kitchen. One table got their order and the other table didn’t.

Stopped here during a business trip. What an amazing place. Everything was crafted with excellence. The main dish was unique and fantastic. Dessert was the same. Service was the best we've experienced too. Nothing will disappoint here.

Their banana cream pie almost took me out!!!! Oh my Lord it's to die for!
