50 Best Seafood Restaurants near Hermosa Beach

“Hands down the best tacos I’ve ever had. And I’m really picky with food and have high standards but this place is absolutely incredible. Tortillas are freshly made and all tacos I had were so uniquely flavorful. I got 3 at first and had to get another 2 and the guy gave me an extra chile relleno taco to try. So freaking nice. I’m obsessed and will easily be going back.“

“Excellant spot to Meet, Greet and Eat!!🥰“

“I was invited to join a friend tonight for dinner and it was absolutely amazing 😍 The atmosphere is calm and enjoyable, it's beautiful inside. Just a downright great dining experience. Highly recommend!“

“This is one of our favorite spots in the south bay! We love it so much we actually had our wedding reception at the rooftop. Food and service are always great and Andrew has been fantastic at taking care of our guests on our wedding day. Love their Iris Azul, El Pistachio and all the mezcal drinks. As for food - die for tortillas and decadent Chimichangas!“

“Update July 2026: docking a full star for the creepy AI answering system that pretended to not be AI with fake restaurant background noise even though it clearly answered slowly and with a delay. It then gave me the wrong info and asked if I wanted a menu sent to me. I said no, it did it anyways by the time the call hung up. I had checked that menu link before calling, it didn't answer my question. All I wanted to know was if there was still food happy hour specials in the summer (there aren't), and I had to physically go in person instead. I would've loved for this info to be on the website, wait staff does spend a lot of time on phone calls. Instead both our time got wasted because I no longer have a way to communicate with the restaurant without going in person. There are still lunch volley bowl deals.

2025: Fantastic view of the ocean and beach. Great specials at lunch and on weekdays. We actually were walking to the Tuesday burger special at Hennessey's Tavern, which we go to often. They caught our eye. This was a perfectly cooked juicy burger with great, strong seasoning and fresh toppings. We got a side of fries, which were delicious and crispy from the blisteringly hot first bite to the last cooled fry. We may have a new beach side burger Tuesday joint with a slightly improved view! It's a solid jump in quality for what you usually find in Hermosa, especially this close to the water.

Staff were friendly. I like the menu a bit more at the Redondo location but you can't beat the view and vibe at the beach. We'll be back to try the extensive drink menu“

“What a fantastic dining experience! We were so well taken care of, and the food was amazeballs! Definitely top of my list as my new favorite seafood restaurant. Elijah, the bartender was awesome and Katie went out of the way to make sure we had a lovely time. What an evening… I highly recommend this place.“

“The fish bar is in a great location the bartender Rose makes amazing drinks she friendly & attentive. She knows you by name. The food was great atmosphere is relaxed all the staff treats you like family. Highly recommend!“

“Excellent food and fantastic service😊“

“We accidentally found this place, and it turned out to be such a wonderful surprise! The sea bass fillet was absolutely delicious—the fish itself was perfectly cooked, and the garnish complemented it beautifully, even though it included fried onions, which I normally wouldn’t expect to pair so well with fish.
I highly recommend this place from the bottom of my heart! ❤“

“The food and the atmosphere are AMAZING“

“Although I was a little put off by the paper plate table settings… this was by far the most delicious food I’ve had… a wildly unexpected treat! Simple yet brilliant flavors using incredible olive oil… it’s my new favorite place! Highly recommended…“

“Dude absolutely freaking delicious. This is my 3rd time coming to this place. And every time I come, I am craving the cocktail with shrimp and octopus. It taste so fresh and so home made.

The place is always crowed with people ordering. It's a small establishment, but very well organized, super clean and with air conditioning on which keeps it cool inside. Next time, I am going to try the shrimp tacos, as many order them.“

“Lobster Bisque in a bread bowl!“

“Amazing view!! Delicious Polynesian Sea Bass. Visited LA for 4 nights and my best meal!!! Walkable area with beach and bike path. Will come back and stay in this area! Restaurant prices are not too high in comparison to other restaurants that aren’t as good.“

“The food was absolutely delicious. The service on the other hand needs improvement One in our party of 4 had their drink served 20 min after the rest. It was a martini but came with no olives when olives were asked for. It seemed the waiter had too many tables and the lack of good service really distracted from the overall dining experience“

“me and my family enjoy coming to this location every summer it's been 15 plus years, if you're looking for a good quality seafood this is the spot😋“

“The location is great being right on the beach and has a great atmosphere. As a heads up it can be a little loud inside. The rockfish crudo was very good and light, the snap peas were great, and so were the prawns. We also got the mussels which unfortunately had have that had not been opened (or so very little you could not even use a fork). They were able to make us a half batch to remedy this. Overall the location/buzz does much of the heavy lifting.“

“Absolutely fantastic place! Food is delicious. Taste festival in each dish. Seafood super fresh! Im in Europe cant find anything like Marocan Goddess 🥹🥹🥹🥹 Love you guys! The best recommendations ❤️❤️ This spot is a must visit if youre in LA. Also super close to LAX“

“I came across Playa Provisions when in town for business. It was a short Uber from the airport, so I figured I'd give it a try. This place is an absolute gem! It is a unique setup that has everything you'd possibly need from morning until late at night: Cafe in the front for coffee and fresh baked good, as well as full breakfast menu. Later in the heat of the afternoon, take a break from the beach (right across the street) and enjoy hand scooped specialty ice cream cones and shakes. Oh look, it's dinner time... and Playa Provisions opens their dining room and bar, some of the best, most relaxed ambience you'll find for miles around. But don't let the casual setting fool you, this is some incredible, elevated cuisine. Chef owners Nick and Brooke (who you might recognize) crafted a menu that's I've been eating my way through, and have yet to find a dish that's not delicious. You've been eating and drinking all day, and are exhausted? Don't leave yet! Wander into the back 'secret' whiskey bar, (Grain Whiskey Bar) and enjoy hand crafted cocktails from award winning bartenders (no, literally), in a gorgeous wood laden atmosphere. I consider myself a foodie, and try as many different restaurants and cuisines as I can. And yet, Playa Provisions remains my favorite restaurant in LA (and that's saying something, considering the amazing places in LA). Run, don't walk, to Playa Provisions. You'll thank me.“

“I took my husband for Father’s Day brunch/lunch at our favorite Italian restaurant here in the Palisades and as always it did not disappoint. It never does. He loved his steak and eggs, steak was Devine and I loved my chick pea soup. Always have the panne cotta and the cherry gelato and an espresso in their delightful patio and you’ve been to Italy!“

“Beautiful little restaraunt by Manhattan Beach Pier. I’m there every year end of Aug.“

“Ladies and gentlemen the winner in the two weeks ago Wednesday blind taco taste test two weeks ago. Everyone's favorite so believe the reviews. It's sparkling shiny and looks eat off the floor clean. The food is fast food priced and is not just a great value in a taste test with nearby El Tarasco that looks more local than this franchise ready busy choice. The taste here is the clear winner. You get less food but for half the price. Mahi Mahi fish taco compared to just the fish of the day at nearby Fiesta.“

“I loved dining here. The atmosphere and ambience of the place in the outdoor patio was stunning and I enjoyed eating my way through this menu. Coconut rice, dumplings, corn and tuna tostada were incredible. Highly recommend checking this place out“

“Simply Bellisimo. Perfection.“

“This is my 2nd trip here and the food never disappoints. The service though is the only knock on this place. The servers are polite but the food comes out soooooo slow. I ordered the marlin tacos and the pescado zarandeado. I devoured the marlin tacos they were so good and shared the pescado with the table.“

“Excellent service great ambience ‘ they also have the amazing tequila card with a variety of tequilas . P“

“This is my second time here. The first time I came was a month ago and meant to leave a review . The sevice was outstanding. A young gentleman name Andrew went above and beyond to provide exceptional service . He was very nice, professional and overall a very happy person who loved his job. Its employees like this that makes a business successful! Its because of Andrew is why I came back today since I was in the area . I had several options of restaurants to choose from and chose to come back to Blue Salt Fish Grill. Today, the sevice was even better because a new trainee, Ayyaub was here with Andrew and had outstanding service . The manager here has done a great job in hiring great employees. Thank you Andrew and Ayyaub!“

“Great food and would have been a wonderful dining experience. However, our initial experience upon arrival was not very welcoming. The hostess explained that we coukd be seated and served only in the bar area at one of the hi tables or the bar itself as we did not have reservations. We of course said, great no problem. Upon sitting at a hi table a server approached saying that we couldn't sit there without the hostess' approval, at which time we explained that she had done so. He refused to let it go, continued to argue with us about server assignments etc. Then he just walked away to go discuss with the hostess, who in turn came to explain weird situation and tell us that it was fine to remain at this table. The rude server continued to display attitude and disdain throughout our meal. Our main server Peter (?) Was actually very professional and attentive.“

“Food and service area excellent!“

“Eclectic, laid back, friendly, creative, and I must mention the FOOD!Innovative, beautifully presented and delicious! Even as a tapas restaurant, I leave satiated and relaxed!“

“friendly place great food and good price“

“High quality eatery with chill casual beachy vibe in El Segundo with other beachside locations nearby. Classic hole in the wall with outstanding specials including fish tacos that absolutely rock at a fair price (especially on Wednesday when they offer a $3.00 per fish taco special that can'tbe beat) Worth the drive...and close to LAX. Great staff always going above and beyond to make customers happy. 2 thumbs all the way up.“

“I went last night for my BDay and I had such a great experience. The staff Amazing! Great Recommendations, The drinks and food good. The lobster roll needed a little seasoning but overall I HIGHLY RECOMMEND. Hard to find parking and it’s not a big place(just the type of area). I’m going back for the New Orleans Oyster ALONE 😋!“

“Always great at dockside love it“

“We visited Edgemar the second time because we had TravelZoo voucher. This time, our experience was exceptional. The service was wonderful with the staff checking on us frequently to see if we need anything as well as clearing out empty dishes. In terms of the food, the menu was kind of limited but with enough variety. I ordered the bread as appetizer. It came out warm and crunchy served with some kind of cheese, it was delicious. For main course, we had salmon and penne pasta with wagyu meatballs. The salmon was cooked to perfection, it was moist inside with crispy skin, the best salmon I've had! The penne pasta was a bit salty and the meatballs were a bit dense but overall was a decent dish. I am glad I gave Edgemar another try, I definitely would come back again, especially for the salmon dish.“

“Delicious food 😋 great service and the sunset 🌇 was amazing 👍💯“

“Great food and service. Shout out to Jessica at the Gilbert/Mesa Arizona location.“

“As most of old Hollywood fades away silently, this one is going out with a bang! please consider stopping by, and stepping back into the days of Frank, Dino, and the rest of the Rat Pack..... you won't be disappointed.... if you can't stay, take home a fabulous TV dinner, from the menu.... again, it's not to be missed.... but don't wait too long, sadly it won't last forever, and another treasure will only be matchbooks and memories😞“

“Delicioso los mejores mariscos de inglewood y de todo LA....!!! Recomendable ...!!! :-) :-*“

“We travel from Pasadena to get this fish...well worth the ride. Staff is always cordial and willing to get your order correct!!! Thank You Jason and the rest of your staff!!!“

“Great atmosphere and even better food and staff!“

“Food is fantastic!! Environment is very friendly, casual and welcoming. Staff is outstanding and accommodating, especially Angel. He always goes out of his way to assist with terrific recommendations and special orders. I highly recommend this lovely gem of a restaurant in San Pedro on Western Avenue.“

“excellent“

“I went for lunch and got their breakfast burger off their brunch menu, which was delicious. Sometimes, I find those to be a gimmick, but this one really worked! Their fries were solid too, and service was solid. My only minor complaint was that my Arnold Palmer was more ice than tea or lemonade, but it was still tasty“

“Even though they have fish I love the chicken wings!“
