The holidays are a season of parties, plans, and a to-do list that never seems to end. At Bettolino, we think the best way to enjoy the season is around a table with the people you love.
This year, there are plenty of ways to celebrate with us in Redondo Beach, whether you are hosting a party, bringing the kids to meet Santa, giving back to our community, or sneaking away for a quiet dinner.
Here are five ways to make the most of the season at Bettolino.
1. Host Your Holiday Party in the Betto Room
Looking for a holiday party venue in Redondo Beach? Our Betto Room is a refined, intimate private dining space designed for celebrations of 20 to 50 guests, and it is ready for your holiday gathering!
Private events in the Betto Room include:
- Exclusive use of the room
- Curated private party buffet menus made from our Bettolino Kitchen favorites
- Dedicated service staff to support your event from start to finish
- A polished yet inviting atmosphere for your guests
It is a great fit for office holiday parties, family gatherings, friends’ celebrations, and neighborhood get-togethers.
Holiday dates are in demand, so we recommend reaching out early. Submit our Celebration Inquiry form and a member of our management team will be in touch to help you make your day special.
2. Sunday with Santa
Santa Claus is coming to town, and he is arriving on a vintage VW bus! We have partnered with Esplanade Brand to bring you what has become our traditional California Christmas event. Grab the kiddos and head to Bettolino Kitchen on Sunday, December 6, from 11 am to 1 pm for a photo with the big guy.
Limited tickets for this event are available, so you’ll want to get them quickly. Photos are $20 and include a digital photo strip with three photo options. All proceeds will be donated to one of our favorite local charities, Community’s Child. Make a lunch reservation and turn the visit into a festive family meal.
3. Give Back with Our Toy Drive for Community’s Child
The holidays are about giving, and giving back to the South Bay is something we love to do. This season, we are hosting our annual toy drive to benefit Community’s Child, so that more children in our community have something to open this year.
Our toy drive begins on Black Friday, November 27, and runs through December 20, 2026. Bring new, unwrapped toys to Bettolino Kitchen when you visit. Every contribution makes a difference, and it is a simple way to turn a night out into something that helps a local family. We’ll thank you with a card for a complimentary dessert on your next visit with us!
4. Parent’s Night Out: Holiday Movie and Craft Night
Calling all parents: you deserve a night off, too. Join us for Parent’s Night Out on Monday, December 14. The kids will enjoy a holiday movie and a festive craft in the Betto Room while you enjoy date night.
Whether you want a quiet dinner for two, a chance to catch up with friends, or just a few uninterrupted hours in the middle of a busy month, Parent’s Night Out lets you have a relaxing evening while your children have a fun one.
Tickets will go quickly, so purchase yours in advance!
5. Escape the Holiday Stress with Date Night Mondays
Between shopping, wrapping, travel plans, and parties, the holiday season can wear everyone out. Friendsgiving Mondays in November and Date Night Mondays in December are our way of giving you a break.
Begin your meal with one starter to share, one entree per person, and one dessert on our prix fixe menu. Start the evening with a cocktail or a glass of wine at the bar, enjoy handmade pasta made fresh daily, and put the to-do list away for a few hours. It is the perfect way to reconnect in the middle of a busy season.
Celebrate with Us This Holiday Season
However you celebrate, we would love to be part of it! Reserve your table at Bettolino Kitchen in Redondo Beach, and make this holiday season one to remember.
