50 Best Wine Bars near Manhattan Beach

“We are from Germany, travelling for weeks across the USA, this IS definetly the best breakfast we have had between Europe and the USA, everything pure and fresh, the Service more than friendly , Like coming Home, at least 5 Stars and more, everybody must try out“

“Barsha is the perfect place to enjoy wine in South bay. The wine selection is unique and reasonably priced, and the staff is exceptional. We had a cheese board with a variety of dips and baguette, all of which paired perfectly with the wine.“

“Lovely and quaint little spot. The wine selection is excellent. Service was fantastic. Will definitely be returning.“

“During my stay at the Belamar Hotel, I had a wonderful experience at the restaurant on the second floor. Before I checked in, I needed a place to work remotely, and the staff went above and beyond to help me connect to the Wi-Fi. They were incredibly attentive, making sure my coffee cup was always full. I ordered waffles and eggs—both were delicious, though I only managed to snap a photo of the waffles! A unique touch was the check, which is presented inside a book where guests are encouraged to leave a note. Overall, it’s a charming spot for both work and a great meal.“

“Warm, hands on and personalized service. A Michelin Bib Gourmand restaurant…Food Made from Scratch, fresh, unique, different, and affordable. Highly recommended! The red onion focaccia bread with herb and Parmesan butter, added Burrata - best- seller, a must. The 3 day brined smoked fried chicken-different taste, with soy and Chiles, a must!!!The Peruvian pork belly with sweet potato , Criolla and crispy quinoa , love it! And the Grilled NY steak with green garlic chimichurri, chorizo aioli and pommes pont neuf, thick cut fries…my son prefers over the fried chicken.“

“Had one of the best meals I’ve had in years. I live in NY and this beats any of my places there in service and unique and amazingly flavorful food. My friend also had a severe dairy and gluten allergy and they were so helpful in accommodating her. This is hospitality at its finest.“

“A very chill place to get coffee in the morning or wine in the afternoon! Can sometimes be tough to get a seat with everyone working on their laptops in the morning, but the space is fairly large (with a nice outdoor patio too) so usually something opens up if you wait.“

“Great food, great music! Friendly owners and staff!“

“Fantastic food, great atmosphere, great service, wonderful music. I love everything about this place“

“After many visits over the years, this was the best ever! The oxtail dumplings are to die for, as was the peach & tomato salad. Duck breast was as good as any- perfectly cooked. I only order crostata’s when in LA as nobody else can make them this good. Maybe wasn’t quite as great as their old sister restaurant, Santa Monica Yacht Club, but was close. Also have to mention the service, we remembered our waiter from years ago as he was also outstanding.“

“The wine and food. Great service and very friendly“

“food and drinks were so good!“

“The food and ambience & wine selection was excellent! We will be back!“

“If I could give the service rating 6 stars, I would. This shop feels like it was started by a bunch of your friends from the neighborhood. Everything I've gotten there has been delicious too. The Dominic de cocco drink has probably been my favorite. And then on Wednesdays and Thursdays the chicken parm sandwich is a must try.“

“Our server Sean was amazing!“

“Had a beautiful dinner at Juliet yesterday! It’s such a charming space with a large patio and interior space. Service was excellent and they do a great job accommodating dietary restrictions. We tried the poisson cru, cauliflower, risotto, classic salad, and sea bream. All were fabulous, bursting with flavors and super well-balanced. We left the meal feeling full but not heavy and already talking about coming back soon!“

“We had the Caeser salad and their famous burger. The burger is REALLY good. The patty’s meat quality is excellent and of a large size. The burger is tasty and juicy. They have a good selection of wines. We had a skin contact wine that paired really well with our meal.“

“A hidden gem, great selection of wine and a super gluten-free friendly spot!
My friends and I went here for a celebratory meal, and had such a great time. 401K has a very inviting atmosphere, one which is intimate yet relaxed. We had the Goats Cheese appetizer which was perfect to share between the 3 of us, and was delicious! Since it is tapas-style, we shared 4 dishes - Chicken & Waffles, Alfredo (the best i've ever had), fries and calamari! The serving sizes are great, and great for your $$$ - Loved this place, and our server was lovely. She was so friendly and gave us fantastic recommendations. Will be going back again soon!“

“Love this treasure in the heart of Mar Vista.“

“Loved Vincent and my amazing cup of coffee.“

“What a fantastic environment. As soon as we walked in our hostess was awesome. Great smile and very pleasant. We sat outside in the beautiful patio area. The menu was easy to access online and the food and beer was incredible. My friend had a salad, which she said was really great and I had a bacon cheeseburger which was awesome. I've been a fan of Firestone beer for a long time, happy to have finally visited to brewery. I certainly hope I'll get another visit some time.“

“Amazing staff, fantastic food, great atmosphere. 10 out of 10 for me!“

“I LOVE the burgers and tater tots here! I’ve been following them for several location moves and always recommend it anyone. Super delicious and my favorite cheat meal!“

“Let's start off with breakfast can easily get $40 to $50 a person. But, this is not your everyday diner. I was very pleased with the taste, presentation, and atmosphere. I felt like the service was a little slow for high-end place, but it may have been a one-time thing. When I go here again? Yes.“

“10/10 Recommend. When I’m in the area, I always gravitate to this spot. I love everything on the menu.“

“We accidentally went to Xuntos last night and discovered that we loved it! The host and waiter were super friendly and helpful, not to mention patient with all our questions and our slowness to make decisions. The atmosphere and decor was cozy and both down-to-earth and elegant at the same time. Most of all, the food was fantastic! We loved everything we got. It was a bit pricey and also noisy in the dining room, but we'll definitely go back!“

“Pretty nice spot to get wine samples and some small plates. We sat outside at some high tops for better convo so we could hear each other better. Tried two wines from California , and 1 from Argentina and one from Chile from the flight.Street metered parking or parking lot. Busy-popping area for a date night.“

“Solidly mediocre - steak is fine and salad/sides are fine, service was neither offensive nor excellent, interior is sexy but not amazing

BUT one reason I would return is for the banana bread pudding, and I might actually return just to get it. That was the best banana bread pudding I’ve ever had in my life jfc“

“Incredible burger. Easy candidate for best in LA. Great cocktails and NA drinks. Perfect spot to walk-in and grab a seat at the bar with a friend or solo. So grateful to have Cou Cou around the corner!

Last week was my ~4th time dining here. Food came out late after ordering from the bar and the kitchen had misplaced the ticket, so the bartender apologized and gave us a round on the house to compensate.“

“Excellent food. We go there all the time. Traditional Italian fare.“

“This pizza is awesome!! The best pizza our family has had in years. The service is also first class Thank you so much!!!!“

“Súper comida de buena calidad Servicio explendido“

“We visited Culver City and tried MillCross Coffee Bar & Kitchen for breakfast. We loved everything we had there! All the food tasted fresh and yummy. All the drinks were great, too. The staff was very nice and friendly. The decorations were very cool also. We definitely go back there again when we visit the area.“

“Best pizza in west LA, super friendly environment.“

“Excellent service and Food. It was Dine LA so we ordered that menu and the food was coursed out. Absolutely superb! What a great way to sample the chef’s specialties. Our waiter was the best!!!! Looking forward to dining again.“

“Great food. Great service. Great people watching. New favorite local.“

“We went there Saturday evening, and we (party of four) were lucky to be seated without reservation. Started off with a glass of wine, we ordered a couple of appetizers followed by entrees. Everything was a top notch, and I would definitely recommend this restaurant!!“

“Fabulous hyper-farm-to-table food by a creative chef, on Main St in Santa Monica. I’ve tried the Gazpacho, the many Danish Rye toasts with what is fresh that day: eggs, salmon roe, avocado or ....? They also have baristas that make all type of drinks. My fab place to indulge healthy and fresh“

“Wonderful food and staff!!!“
