GLADSTONES UNVEILS SUMMER MENU WITH ELEVATED SEASONAL DISHES

PACIFIC PALISADES, Calif., June 11, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Summer has officially started at Gladstones , the legendary restaurant on the beach, where the sun meets the sea. The historic beachside restaurant has unveiled its new summer menu that reflects the latest era of Gladstones, with elevated dishes that incorporate fresh seasonal summer ingredients. The new menu features locally grown ingredients, locally sourced seafood, grass-fed wagyu steak from New Zealand and a banana split dessert, which was
cherished by former Gladstones owner and mayor of Los Angeles, the late
