50 Best Seafood Restaurants near Pacific Palisades

“Truly a hidden gem! I don't usually post reviews but I have to tell people about this place! Dropped in with a couple friends. I had the pappardelle bolognese. Fresh pasta made in the house! My friend had the Pollo Limone (lemon chicken). She loved it! My other friend had the Dover sole special with the lemon mustard dressing and the server debone the fish at the table! So cool! Great wine list and delicious food! Hostess was so funny and a joy to talk to! A definite must go if you are in the area! They also have a deli we will try next time. We will be back for sure!“

“Somewhat overpriced dishes. But I get it. It is - Los Angeles. Everything is expensive here. I got oysters- the smallest ever I had seen and way not too fresh… so no that next time. Soup - was tasty but portion was small that makes you regret you even paid for it. View is great! Location is great. Owner is very down to earth and welcoming. Parking. When we got there and told them we her to eat we were charged 15$. If we were just enjoying the view then 7$. So a a tip - do not say you are for the restaurant. Enjoy few minutes the view and the go to eat ;). After taking to the owner he said it is set by the city. So the question - how stupid the clerk is to charge the people that will spend 100$+ to eat and pay taxes as well as the restaurant? They should cherish the business as it brings cash flow and money by paying taxes but not choking them and visitor double price for parking. I was very angry to find out that some people that came to look at ocean and brought no profit to the city had to pay less then us supporting restaurant and workers there. Shame on the stupid clerk!!! Stop smoking pot before creating laws!“

“Malama Pono has been my favourite restaurant in the neighborhood since 2021. I have always enjoyed my time here. Wonderful food and staff! BEST crispy rice in town!! Come here and you will not be disappointed. I’ve brought different people here and they all loved it. Everything on the menu is delicious.“

“Always an enjoyable experience. Greeted warmly, seated, ordered. Menu is something for everyone done right. Good runners always more than pleasant. Busy evening and our waitress was a busy lady. Management sent another more than capable body to relieve that jam, which was really appreciated. Good great, 3 of us shared appetizers, a delicious large steak, and the fish special. All left satisfied with leftover steak“

“The restaurant needs to buy one can of WD-40 to fix their squeaky front door. Had to wait 20 minutes outside the front door waiting for our table (which was not a big deal) but for the incredibly squeaky front door which opens repeatedly. Everyone waiting for their table was getting a headache. Food was great. I won't return until I know that door is fixed.“

“This was our first time at Saltie Girl. We will definitely be dinning at Saltie Girl again.The oysters were outstanding and not a bad price at $4.50 each. They had great flavor.LA Pink salad was very good with an excellent crushed maple walnut dressing dressing.The Moules Frites, probably the best I ever had, even better than in Belgium! Ipswich Claim had a wonderful coating and excellent flavor. The Fried Brussels Sprouts outstanding flavor. The French Dover Sole with the lemon, capers, butter and parsley, amazing flavor. Lump Crab Toast bold and delicious flavor.The one dish I would pass on next time is the Tins. We had one tin with Sardine In Olive Oil With Lemon and one with Hake In Green Sauce. They just lacked flavor.Service was top notch.“

“Great tasting food, service was attentive, atmosphere/decor was great. We were told to order more food than we thought necessary, by the time we got the last dish - we couldn't finish it. Unfortunately, they packed it up in such a small container that you could tell half of the curry was thrown out! Recommend to use a bigger container!“

“I went for my birthday based on reviews & I needed something to enjoy. I’m typically a Ruth Chris girlie, but I’ve been so many times. I took myself btw. I made a reservation, valet was very kind, I couldn’t even tell you how many people checked on me to make sure I was doing okay but I appreciated everything. The bread was amazing, the recommendations were amazing, even the other guest in the restaurant were sweet and told me happy birthday & took pictures of me. The atmosphere was beautiful, the lighting was perfect too. They even gave me a birthday card & the dessert was a 10/10. It was literally the best birthday I’ve had in years. It was worth every penny and I highly recommend coming here again.“

“It's a tragedy that Manzke is closing at the end of February. A restaurant this good shouldn't have to close. Everything is fantastic. The food is rich in flavor with a cocktail and wine list as close to perfection as possible. I'd encourage anyone who loves fine dining to enjoy Manzke while you can. Oh, and the butter is heavenly...“

“Our first time and definitely not the last time at this delightful restaurant. Impeccable service, amazing waitress (Olga) who was watching her tables so closely, making sure during the entire time to accommodate her guests. Pleasant, professional, great personality and a perfect match for such restaurant. The food was absolutely delicious. The atmosphere was so comfortable, perfect lighting and seating area. The manager (Leslie) stop by our table because we wanted him to know how much we appreciated Olga’s great work and how much we enjoyed everything. No matter where go are in LA, you must visit this wonderful restaurant. Kudos to the chef, staff and the management.“

“This is our fourth time here since opened. We love it and even brought some first timers. Just a couple of things, the rigatoni was not as spicy as usual, the chicken parmesan seemed a little small and $45 for corkage is a little high my feeling.“

“Im so glad I finally discovered Yama! I am in love with the Yama special California roll - I’m disappointed to see that it’s not available to order separately on Door dash - Please add it there! The only thing I haven’t loved so far was the unagi roll, it had a rubbery texture. Maybe I just was unlucky with that one. Overall really good sushi! I also love the rest of the market with the Japanese gifts :)“

“Fia Steak Restaurant provided an unforgettable dining experience that surpassed all expectations. From the warm and knowledgeable staff to the exquisite culinary offerings, every aspect of the evening was exceptional. The appetizers, including the crunchy tuna cigars, hamachi crudo, and the newly introduced kingfish crudo, tantalized the taste buds with their harmonious flavor combinations. The steak tartare, with its spicy kick, was a standout dish, setting the stage for the incredible entrees to follow.The truffle cavatelli was a personal favorite, but the oxtail agnolotti stole the show with its rich wine and meat sauce, leaving a lasting impression as one of the most remarkable pasta dishes ever tasted. The bone-in ribeye, cooked to perfection and accompanied by dauphinois gratin of potatoes, mushrooms, and asparagus, showcased the restaurant's mastery of steak. Additionally, the A5 Wagyu, a kitchen recommendation, was a delectable indulgence.Dessert was the perfect conclusion to an extraordinary meal, with the chocolate soufflé and sticky toffee pudding topped with vanilla ice cream providing a sweet finale. Fia Steak Restaurant has set the bar exceptionally high with its unparalleled hospitality, service, and culinary quality. This dining experience was truly magical, THANK YOU, Fia Steak!“

“My friends took me to Leona's sushi house earlier this week. It was last minute, for my birthday and we were able to get a table without a reservation! The decor and the mood was great. Lighting was sexy. I don't even mind that I had to use my cellphone light to see the menu. ?. Drinks were great! Everything was delicious. Especially Loved the Black Cod and the spicy edamame. Our server, I think her name was Tanya or Tania was exceptional, very attentive and gave great recommendations. Would definitely visit again to try more items on the menu.“

“So many delicious choices but in my opinion the Bougie fish sticks are a must! We ordered them along with fresh baked bread and the chopped shrimp louie salad for a perfect light and delicious early dinner. Of course you'll need to pair the meal with one (or two) of the excellent wines by the glass. The dessert menu is also worth a look. The view is great, the service outstanding and the menu innovative.“

“I showed up late so I didn't get to try everything, but the shrimp dumplings were a joy! It's dark as hell in there so if you're over 30, take a seeing-eye friend as your dining companion. Gorgeous, decor and the music finished out the mood. The parking garage that offers valet is just steps away, so don't let the location deter you. Great choice for a date.“

“We are from Orange County and our most favorite server, Ash, now works here. Her service and attention to detail is always next level and this restaurant is amazing.She recommended the The muscles and clams - hands down scrumptious!We sat outside by the fire! We are so happy she is now at such a great establishment. Love the ambiance and of course the service is TOP NOTCH! Smart people hired this girl!“

“Awsome adress for having a good time!The whole team is doing an excellent job in hospitality. Flexible and friendly they take care of you and give smart advise on wines. Furthermore, the food is not just excellent. The chef learned his job in Italy and has managed to reproduce with local products a real distinguished cooking experience which is realy outstanding in taste and quality.Please go on like this. We will come back!“

“Crudo e Nudo is a tiny fish "bar" serving humble-looking dishes that are packed with elegance and finesse. The abalone changed my life. ? The menu changes based on availability. Wine pairings are perfect. Service is delightful, although it is a small staff so be patient during busy hours. We would have ordered more, had we not needed to save room for our second dinner at their sister restaurant.“

“Fresh sushi at a reasonable price. We were travelling to the LA area from Ontario, Canada and were eager to try sushi in California. This place popped up on our radar and did not disappoint. The sushi is super fresh, great quality, customer service is very attentive and food came promptly. You can tell this place is busy and for good reason!Parking: We were able to get a spot in the parking lot where this place is situated in the mall.“

“Highly recommend ! Had my bday celebration and the experience was immaculate. From the manager greeting then checking in multiple times, to the incredible dishes. Seafood was super fresh. Perfect place to celebrate a birthday. Thank you for having us !“

“I went to Eddie V’s for the first time for my birthday! The food and the service were impeccable! From the hosts to the servers they all gave us personable service! Our server was CJ. We had a large party but she took care of all of us. I will definitely be back! Thank you all for making my birthday so memorable!Parking: We valet parked it was $12.00.“

“Solid neighborhood seafood-focused pub-style restaurant. Island style, Tommy Bahamas vibe decor, lots of TVs, but not intrusive. Table and booth seating and lots of bar seats. We have been for early dinner twice and do not miss their happy hour or Taco Tuesday! Great prices on apps and drinks. We love the Coconut Shrimp and Chipotle Calamari.“

“Most excellent experience and food was perfect. We had the duck eggrolls and the ricotta stuffed squash blossoms as starters, both had a delish specialty drink. I had the house burger with 3 different meats ground in including wagyu. Was done perfectly med rare. No room for dessert this time. Will def go back. Service was nice, we sat at the bar. All in all a great experience.“

“We love this place for a sunny lunch/brunch on the weekends to grab a burger, some drinks and the kale salad we love. You can’t beat the prices and being able to catch some sun in a non pretentious manner. Not giving 5 stars because the girl working the bar has been consistently rude and doesn’t seem to enjoy her job which is kind of a buzz kill but otherwise 5 stars ✨“

“I wish it was possible to give this place higher than 5 stars. We had such an incredible dinner during our weekend trip to LA.First off; the atmosphere is awesome. The open dining room, along with the lighting and music make the perfect setup for a fun/modern environment.We started off with cocktails and both really enjoyed them. For appetizers we chose the pork belly sliders based off of reviews online. I personally wasn’t blow away by them, but my girlfriend really enjoyed them. We also decided to share the truffle flatbread and WOW. This was quite easily the best part of the meal. The dough was perfect and the truffle sauce on top was incredible. Do yourself a favor and order this!For the entrees; we both opted for one of the pasta dishes. Sticking with the same theme my girlfriend got the truffle pasta. She absolutely loved it, I tried a bite and was jealous I didn’t order that myself. I chose the sweet potato gnocchi with short rib and it was very good. It probably could have used some more salt.And just when we thought the meal couldn’t get any better…we ordered desert. We were going to get the churros since many reviews online talked about them, BUT based off of our server’s recommendation we ordered the chocolate cake instead. No words…just delicious. We were so content after that. We both are in agreement that this was one of the best meals we’ve had at a restaurant in a while.“

“Unfortunately they scaled down the fish offering and now have only 4-5 options (spicy ahi, sweet ahi, salmon and shrimp if I recall correctly) but everything is super fresh, handed with a big smile and you have an outdoor area to sit in the sun. Love the place. I would stick to the poke. Tried the meat tacos and the chips with smoked white fish and wasn't blown away.“

“I came here for my partner's birthday and we had an amazing time! The service is top notch and the food is delicious. The ambiance is intimate and romantic, making it great for date night or gathering with close friends. If you're looking for a mature environment with great food, I highly recommend.“

“It was my first time here celebrating my daughter's birthday It was an Excellent Experience the food was delicious and the service was so friendly and respectful. The atmosphere was very nice I will go back and recommend to my family and friends ? I almost forgot that the Cheff was amazing !!“

“2024 update: dined in for the first time and was underwhelmed with the food. Chickpea curry is decent, kaya toast is decent. The dan dan noodles are straight up not good! Extremely salty and fatty. Skipped dessert (unheard of for me) because the main dishes already made me feel so heavy and unhealthy.2022 takeout review: The laksa is incredible. It is easily two meals (can serve two people). I'm not a spice person and this was at the upper end of my spice tolerance but not too spicy. A side of clay oven bread is really good to dip in it. My only complaint was I ordered takeout and my order was ready 15 minutes later than the original estimate.“

“My wife and I came by here for a family get together and had a blast. The food was absolutely delicious. We love sides and had the Mac & cheese, collard greens and my favorite, the black eyed peas and rice aka The Rolling Johns. The owners really make the place special, and we were fortunate enough to have a quick conversation with one of the owners Chef. You can feel the love in the food and the building. Hands down the best soul food I’ve had in Los Angeles.“

“Love love love Cajun/Creole food! I was more than pleasantly surprised to find this gem in my neck of the woods, and am happy to report that Mardi Gras Tuesday will be my go-to Cajun/Creole joint for the foreseeable future. Mind you, I'm no expert on the cuisine, but I've been a fan for a long time and can happily endorse the Étouffée (crawfish), the Jambalaya, the Mac and Cheese, hushpuppies, and the friendly service at Mardi Gras Tuesday. *Though the cornbread didn't necessarily wow me, all and all, it was a great meal for the portions, price and quality. And considering they got slammed as soon as we walked in (around the start of the Super Bowl), the service was quick and we were in and out of there with bellies full of comfort food within an hour. Can't wait to go back!“

“Been there multiple times - our favorites have been the rolls and the lobster tacos. Also needs to be paired with the fries and tater tots half and half mix. It’s the perfect meal. Parking is the only downside. The lot for that building is super expensive so we usually spend a couple extra minutes finding street parking. But it’s worth it for really well-priced, fresh, well-seasoned lobster and crab meat- and really friendly service!“

“This place used to be the biz. I cannot deny that their food is jammin' but their service and overall attitude have a lot be desired. This was the spot after the world reopened and the outdoor seating made everyone feel a little more COVID safe. I think they started feeling themselves a little too much. After my wife and I had our first couple visits there, it was great. However, subsequent visits went from awful to the absolute worst. They failed to recognize our reservations a couple of times and when they got it wrong, they made us rush to order. I would get their food again but suggest getting it delivered to spare their nonsensical restaurant/business practices. If you want the pulpo, get it there and not for delivery. And for some reason, when you get the saltado delivered, you don't get the egg. I'm assuming it's due to possible foodbourne illness issues. Five stars for food, one star for service/attitude.“

“Came in for work dinner. They placed us in a nice conference room. They had multiple of these. The food came in on time and tasted good. Mine was cold at first but they warmed it up, which is understandable when you have 20steaks to make. The filet was tasty and so were the calamari appetizers and bread. Would return again for next event.“

“What a fun night! Great service and yummy food. Definitely an old school charm. Recommended when you're in the mood for steak and a little Sinatra. The only dish that was a little disappointing, but not bad: the Caesar Salad. It is made tableside, but isn't anything special. The steaks were well cut and perfectly prepared. The truffle Mac was solid. Overall a great experience!“

“Beautiful restaurant offering indoor and patio dining, serving a wide variety of steakhouse entrees and starters.The Thia Ahi tuna salad, Rib eye and skirt steak are all terrific. Surprisingly affordable by comparison and wonderful!Crab cakes and spinach/artichoke dip for appetizers- always a win!The service was absolutely impeccable by Garrett. We never felt rushed and always looked after, truly amazing and professional!“

“As always, dinner at Milky Way was special. Fish and Chips, Mini Chimichangas, Seafood Chowder, and Impossible Cheeseburger all exceptional. Service by Takiya was great again(my wife was able to switch raw onions to carmelized onion and American cheese to Swiss cheese.). My mother chose the chili to start fish and chips rather than salad options. Ambiance? Like going to your favorite aunt for a meal.“

“The lobster grilled cheese with soup is everything. Every time we come back, it’s just as good as the times before. My partner likes the Tot Nachos. The first time we came we tracked down street parking. Then we realized there’s a parking garage with an entrance in the back of the building. Added convenience.“

“It was a beautiful Sunday funday for some seafood! They do have their own private parking lot in the back, and you can enter from the back as well. Most of the restaurant consists of their glass counters displaying all their freshest seafood and the variety is quite astounding! It all looks so delicious! And about another half of the restaurant are some tables and bar seating. We walked in around noon and were seated immediately. It does start to fill up more quickly after that time. Half Dozen Oysters We forgot to ask what kind of oysters they had, so they automatically brought out two of each different kinds, which I forgot what they were, but they were all extremely fresh and delicious. A little salty, a little creamy. Peruvian Purple Scallops I believe this is our first time having Peruvian purple scallops, but these were also extremely fresh, and you didn't need to add any extra flavor or hot sauce to these. I like that they added a very small slice of orange to each shell, giving it a slightly tangy and citrusy flavor, highly recommended! Lobster Roll with French Fries Average size bread with a good serving of lobster meat. Served cold. Although I felt like it could've slightly used more butter, but still delicious. And the french fries were the perfect cut and flavor and crispiness. Cioppino The cioppino was definitely the star of the show! Serving size was huge, presentation was perfect! A hearty amount of seafood: fish, clams, mussels, shrimp, octopus. And the flavor of the tomato soup was subtle and flavorful at the same time. Overall, everything here was fresh and delicious and we would definitely come back again!“

“Tel Aviv Fish Grill is such a great spot located in Tarzana. They specialize in serving fresh and flavorful Mediterranean-style seafood and breakfast dishes. My favorites are their shakshuka and the fried fish. The atmosphere at Tel Aviv Fish Grill is casual and inviting. The staff is friendly and attentive, making sure you have a great dining experience. They also have outdoor seating available. If you're a fan of Mediterranean cuisine and seafood, I highly recommend checking out Tel Aviv Fish Grill.“

“Purple protein smoothieSuper cute atmosphere with a clean bathroom (faucet has hot water ?)My smoothie was sooo delicious, tasted amazing but somehow not too much sugar and came in a sick glass jar?!Staff was really nice as I was early afCan’t wait to sit in sometimeDef recommend, from vegan/vegetarian to poke! Everyone can get good healthy food“

“We went here for my husband's birthday with family and it was a terrific experience. The service was excellent and the appetizers and entrees were all amazing. They even brought a delicious piece of their key lime pie with a birthday candle in for my husband. We will be coming back!!“

“Dinner for 4 on a Thursday at 7pm. Small parking lot was full, we had to circle for street parking. No Valet. Busy inside. They only seat once the entire party is present. There were several groups waiting for their people, the entryway was crowded. It's loud inside, I later saw a warning from my phone! Food was tasty. Portion sizes good. La Jolla potatoes are kinda like scalloped potatoes. Sticky toffee pudding to share was great.“

“It is rare for me to be genuinely impressed with the level of flavor and creativity. My recommendation: get every single flavor of grilled oyster (the true stars of the place imo) and the key lime pie, which looks unassuming but is some of the most solid pie I've had in LA. Love that they promote sustainable shellfish as well. The raw oysters were sweet and flavorful but expensive. Although I don't regret ordering the deviled eggs, I probably wouldn't get them again. This unassuming little oyster bar is tucked in a busy food hall. Service is top notch.“

“A restaurant full of energy. From the chefs to the service staff, the owners, and the music, everything is charged with vitality. The dishes are fantastic, and the fish is freshly caught by the owner. The wine and champagne selection is good, and you can have any wine from the shelf chilled on ice. Fantastic.“

“Duke's Malibu offers a captivating blend of coastal charm and exquisite cuisine. With stunning ocean views, fresh seafood dishes, and friendly service, it's a must-visit destination for anyone seeking a memorable dining experience in Malibu. It does have limited food options for dinner. That's why four stars.“

“This place is PHENOMENAL!!! Every time I've been here it has been killer. The staff is awesome, and the consistency of the food is right on. I recommend the Lobster tacos, Cali lobster roll, and the Lobster fries. This is my go-to place for all things lobster.Edit: Came here again today and this place seems to keep getting better. Great food, Excellent Service. The Lobster Bisque and the Clobster roll are fantastic!!“

“I'm so happy to have found this gem of a restaurant! The owner greeted me by name as we walked in the door-she was so sweet (her name is Lily). We loved everything we ordered (the grilled fish, the sample platter, the rice dish). We look forward to our next dining experience very soon. Go try it! You won't be disappointed.“

“You walk-in, look through the menu, and then go place your order. The atmosphere was nice.Food: shrimp cocktail was a 3 out of 5. It was too small for the price, the flavor was just okay, Not worth the $$. Tacos: 3 out of 5, they were just okay. Calamari: was good but chewy, 4 out of 5. Steak and potato, good 4 out of 5. Fried shrimp: 5 out of 5. The shrimp was the best compared to the other meals. Salad was good,“
