Exceptional restaurant ! Fantastic, friendly service and amazing food. Favorites are the puruvian scallop , oysters , hamachi crudo , salmon tartare , mussels . They also have a very accomplished bartender .
Expect a mixed batch of old and new seafood dishes , alongside a thoughtful list of intoxicants. Early standouts are the Thai Shellfish Coconut Soup , Albacore Tartare , and Loup de Mer.
We did the Dine LA menu, what an incredible deal! I had the raw bar appetizer , blue crab po'boy entree, and salted caramel pretzel bread pudding with mascarpone ice cream . So good!
A notable seafood dining establishment. Reservations are highly recommended Food tends to be very good and service tends to be outstanding.
Every dish I have tried here is outstanding. The fish dishes are done to perfection . A great accompaniment to your meal are the Parker House Rolls. Highly recommend the Key Lime Pie for dessert .
This is a great restaurant with authentic food for a good price. I really enjoyed a variety of dishes on the menu and all was presented well . Kudos to the owner and the management. Highly recommended!
Crescent moon oysters , seared scallops and crab cake , all with some glasses of champagne 💫 Delicious!! The heirloom tomatoes & tuna tomato tostadas are amazing, but that’s seasonal.
The sea urchin , and the NZ oysters where on point. Also the key lime pie was amazing and I'm from Florida. Very impressed. Can't wait to go back!!!
Quick! Get the Maryland Soft Shell Blue Crab Po' Boy b4 it's off the menu . Today is the last day! Peruvian Scallops w/grapefruit is so refreshing together. Squash Rolls w/Rosemary Butter are great.
I assumed that MB Post was the head and shoulders champion of MB, but didn’t realize it’s less hyped neighbor may be superior. Caesar and tuna tartare at lunch , both amazing!
Sit at the bar . We enjoyed having Kevin as our server and the chowder , hamachi and Arctic Char salad with a runny egg were all excellent!
Everything is amazing. Get oysters then let them guide you through their well thought out menu.
Everything was incredible, but two things I'd say that you MUST try are the Hamachi and the Key Lime Pie .
Reservations are a must due to small space. Try as much of the amazing seafood dishes as you can.
Amazing King Crab , Blue Crab , Crab cakes , ceviche and hamachi !!! Get it all....oh and the service was the best I've ever had!!!
Peruvian scallops ,Hamachi,Cape cod squash rolls with rosemary butter, Rockfish and shrimp ceviche all amazing !
This tiny fish spot on Manhattan Beach aims to please with deliciously fresh seafare. Try the Peruvian scallops and shrimp ceviche . Read more
Always include Puruvian scallops in the mix from your raw bar selection and save room for pumpkin pie with salted caramel whipped cream or that key lime pie !
Dude, all the seafood is dope af. Make sure you get dat key lime pie at the end, though. It's major 🔑 (🍋 ).
Try to snag one of the two "reservation tables" on Opentable, otherwise its walk-ins. THIS is the best seafood restaurant in the South Bay .
The platters are very good but highlight was the Thai Shellfish and Coconut Soup . Chowdah was good too, not thickened like the one at Legal Seafood (in Boston).
The scallops , sea bass , and beet salad . Service was top notch, too!
The small plates are larger than the average tapas . Go for 2 and a side for a lunch for 2.
The people here are as lovely as their food.
This restaurant is amazing. This is the pretzel pudding amazing!
You have to try the pretzel brownie with homemade ice cream - trust me!
Only twelve tables. Super tiny spot but worth it. They turn the tunes up loud just incase there are any real #loudtalkers around (you know the people that have no inside voice)
Get the Peruvian Scallops , Hamachi , and the Koshihikari Rice . All are amazing dishes!
Forgo the usual mignonette and cocktail adornment for ponzu , yuzu koshu mayo or saffron aioli . Read more
Santa Barbara urchins and the soft shell crab 🦀
Great seafood and terrific cocktail list .
The raw bar , which includes a dozen or so varieties of oysters , is one of the best in LA.
A visit to fishing with Dynamite is not complete without an order of squash rolls
If you're all in, a fat Mothershucker ($160) platter serves them all prettied up on ice and garnished with strands of seaweed . Read more
If you try one thing, let it be the Peruvian scallops . They are truly amazing.
Order some Kusshi oysters , jumbo shrimp , the crab cake and a glass of Sancerre .
Pretzel bread pudding is amazing. Expert tip: pair it with some Don Julio 1942.
Try the key lime pie for dessert . It's a good size for 2 people to share.
Swordfish , fish tacos , pretzel and choko bread pudding- outstanding!
Service, presentation, food - all excellent.
Excellent food! Make sure to get the clam chowder
Everything. Oysters , scallops , desserts , everything!!!!
Fish tacos were fantastic!
Hamachi appetizer was good. Fish tacos and crabcakes were OK. Keylime pie was good but not as amazing as advertised.
Best seafood in Manhattan Beach. Hands down.
Exceptionally good! Hidden gem
Start the menu top left and come back till you reach bottom right. Repeat!
A great seafood restaurant in Manhattan Beach.
Can't go wrong on the menu. Save room for the bread pudding .
Lobster tacos are the best. Sub steamed spinach for the rice to keep it healthy. - Brian Smith
Im of the 1% who DO NOT go for the Navy Grogs. Loved the salmon sandwich though and the Caesar salad with chicken - yum! - Kassi
Blackened Ono tacos on corn tortilla with no cilantro/onion mix but extra cabbage! My favorite lunch! - DeAnn Rhoton
Loved the intimacy and the atmosphere, my soul is much more lighter than before 😍 - Edel
Shout-out to bartenders Sal and Beau. They were awesome - so knowledgeable about all the drinks AND all the food on the menu. Brussel sprouts, flank steak, halibut cheek and bacon cheddar biscuits. AM - Christine Paulson
Beer and pretzel cupcake is unreal. Lots of frosting. - Nicole Harkness
