“This place exceeded my expectations. The food, the vibe, and the service were all flawless. Will definitely coming back here again“

“There was a lovely engagement last night in front of Prosecco’s . Young love, and she said, “Yes!”“

“Everything about this place is excellent. The food is flavorful and clearly made with care, the service is kind and attentive, and the atmosphere is both elegant and inviting. A wonderful dining experience every time!“

“Possibly the best and freshest Mexican style seafood in LA Think fine from a James Beard award winning chef and kitchen on the very casual setting of a food court It’s busy so get in early as the line to order grows quickly Plenty of parking with extra space at rear of the car park for the overflow This is a must try if you are in the area“

“Delicious food and super friendly staff. I would highly recommend“

“This was a great brunch and starting with the grapefruit and juniper spritz set the right tone because they were perfectly balanced. I hate cocktails that throw off the balance with alcohol. Baked scallops, great flavor; lobster pasta I highly recommend because the sauce could be eaten by itself it’s so good; smoke salmon Benedict was done to perfection and the highlight for me was the addition of avocado and a very thin super crispy muffin! I always think muffins are too big so that was a big plus for me.“

“The tasting menu is full of unique seafood dishes, and the portions are generous.“

“Simply delicious, we enjoy sunday brunch!“

“Malama polo restaurant is best�Highly recommend for all.“

“The signature dish is the crab in sauce, which comes in medium and large sizes. medium is two crabs with two bowls of rice, and large is three crabs. Compared with other Korean restaurants, the sauce crab taste is mild, and it will not be salty enough to explode in the middle of the meal and cannot continue to eat. The crab is fresh, not fishy, and the meat is firm, not squishy. The crab meat is also very full, the crab legs are full, there is no empty shell crab. The sea urchin rice is a little smaller but the sea urchin is enough. regular sea urchins are not particularly sweet, but they are fresh and worth the price. The sea urchin Rice bowl combo will be served with steamed eggs, runny eggs and two prawns in sauce. Raw marinated salmon rice is amazing to me. The salmon is marinated just enough to be flavorful, but not overly salty. The portions are generous. You can eat two bites of each piece of salmon.“

“Me fascinan los camarones gigantes y su langosta 😋“

“I’ve been hearing about this place a lot recently — it’s basically Korean BBQ but with seafood. Came on a weekday with a group of 8, and while it’s usually busy, we grabbed a table in the back patio so we didn’t have to wait too long.

We went with the Captain Set and the Crew Set. Both came with banchan and cold Korean noodles, which were super refreshing alongside all the grilled seafood. Everything is cooked over coals, which gives it a nice smoky flavor that really brings the seafood to life. I even tried hagfish for the first time — definitely unique, but glad I gave it a shot.

Price-wise, it feels a little high for what you get. At the end of the day it’s just seafood, so it didn’t really fill me up the same way a KBBQ set would. But the quality was good, and I liked that the meal finished with a hot noodle soup — comforting and a nice way to end the spread.

Overall, it’s a fun spot to check out with friends if you’re into grilled seafood and want something different from the usual KBBQ routine.“

“Amazing Food. We ordered quite a few dishes and everything was delicious! The Peking Duck and green beans were my favorite!“

“Amazing takeout family meal which features the most flavorful and delicious Char Siu Wagyu Short Rib with fluffy bao. All side dishes are well executed and delectable. One of the best staying at home meals I’ve had! Highly recommend it!“

“don’t listen to those people below. i’ve been here several times and it’s always an amazing experience. if you’re afraid of shrimp with the heads on and order a pimento cheeseburger with lettuce instead of a bun, you are infinitely unqualified to critique food.

what takes this place from good to great is the service. the host and servers are attentive without being overbearing and are deeply knowledgeable about all aspects of the raw bar, cooked food, wine, and beverages. i’ve never had an issue with accommodating simple modifications (like removing a pork product).

I was in fact at the restaurant the night one reviewer below (complaining about the service) was there. they were an entitled group of drunk girls asking for difficult requests (trying to split the bill a number of ways). as they were walking out of the restaurant and waiting for the uber, they were extremely loud and rude. I wouldn’t be particularly excited to serve their group either.

all in all, highly recommend this spot. the menu is always evolving, and now that they have a full bar, they make a killer martini.“

“Delicious food, excellent service ~ our table ordered Caesar salad, clam chowder, tiger prawns, crab cakes, sea bass, ahi tuna, swordfish, tiramisu, and carrot cake (maybe a bit more) and everything was superb ~ the taste, the presentation, the service, the space. Highly recommend.“

“Beyond expectations! Best meal & service in at least 10 years. I’ll be back!“

“Freshest restaurant quality sashimi and sushi at a reasonable price in the U.S. Their sashimi is top notch. Highly recommend the Hamachi/yellowtail toro (so underrated), the scallops, and the squid/ika, but honestly any of the options won’t disappoint. Also a big fan of their tamago and their Takuan roll (which has fresh perilla leaves inside)!
If you’re a big sashimi/sushi enjoyer and value quality, this place is perfect!“

“This is a great spot for a seafood forward Mexican meal with an absolutely stunning patio. We got a few dishes but the standouts are the scallop tostada (culichi tostada) and the branzino zarandeados. The branzino comes with beans, rice, avocado, tortillas, quesadillas, onions and salsas. We loved making our own tortilla with the quesadillas that it came with. Make sure you leave room for the iconic LA churros!!“

“Tar and Roses was fabulous. The food was delicious. Scott was so attentive and never let us run out of water. We were seated out on the patio and it was so romantic. All the food was fresh and tender. Would for sure go again for another special occasion.“

“Hurtig betjening og fantastisk aftensmad 🦞🍺🦐“

“Gem alert!! Absolutely delicious food (great lobster rolls in quality, portion, and flavor; fryer expertly manned so your calamari is creamy and crisp outside; house-made sauce that is both delicious and interesting). The service is great, the vibe is relaxed, and the beer choices are good. Can’t wait to come back for lobster rolls and a pitcher of beer to share.“

“Nice for fine dinning! One block away from Rodeo Dr!“

“What a fantastic plate of oysters. The horseradish was hand grated. Has a lobster roll as well with thin fries with old bay. Service was great food was super fast.“

“L&E is my go-to neighborhood spot. So lucky that I am steps (well, two flights of Silver Lake steps) away. I just threw my birthday there with my closest girlfriends and their staff made the night so special. The food was incredible, the vibes were immaculate - always have an amazing time at L&E.“

“This place has consistently fresh and delicious Aguachlle. It's amazing. I'm from the East coast and my son brought me here for lunch. He brought me here last year during my visit as well. I couldn't wait to go back this time.“

“The food was delicious and the soft drinks as well, excellent service and atmosphere too!! Thank you so much Natalies Peruvian restaurant!!! I extremely recommend you the Lomo Saltado, Tallarines verdes, Yucas fritas and Chicharrón de calamar!!!“

“海鲜很新鲜，非常棒的用餐体验！“

“the variety of veggies and seafood made an amazing broth, then the addition of lamb, pork and beef made this meal even better.. soo good“

“A nice small family owned seafood shop. Also they have an amazing lobster roll deal. $25 for two lobster rolls ,chips and a drink“

“exelente servicio la comida muy sabrosa😋 aquí encuentra amabilidad y cortecia 😍 🤩“

“Progressive Japanese food that focuses on simplicity and freshness showcasing technique. They highlight their eel and we got the whole one to share. It can be a bit intimidating for people not familiar and a bit simple but the effort to prepare takes a lot. For the price, I wish it came with a side of rice or something to complement it. I really enjoyed the Tofu and Eggplant dish also. The Eggplant was super unique and cooked in a way I haven’t tried before and was very flavorful with a dark miso crust. The Corn and Sausage was unique too and presentation was pretty cool. I really enjoyed the Strawberry Shaved Ice for dessert. Great way to end!! Overall, the food is on the lighter side so if you’re looking for hearty or indulgent food this may not be the best pick. They serve smaller plates that are good to share between two people or a small group. Service was great though and super friendly.“

“海鲜很新鲜，非常棒的用餐体验！“

“Went here specifically for the lobster roll. Best I've ever had. Yes it's small, lobster rolls are always small. Yes it's expensive, but I've paid more and they weren't nearly as delicious. We got the warm with butter, in my opinion, the only way to eat lobster. And it was delicious. Just splurge, so worth it. I will come back just for the lobster roll. That's all we got, so I can't comment on anything else“

“海鲜很新鲜，非常棒的用餐体验！“

“Boiling Crab is one of my favorite places to go their catfish and their chicken strips are so amazing. You will not be disappointed. My husband and son loves their shrimp crab clams and so much more. You will definitely have to try.“

“Absolutely Phenomenal! Ann and her staff were excellent. The food was perfect. The night was perfect. The restaurant is perfect. You get what you pay for and everything in life. This is well worth it.“

“Having visited Luke's in New York and also ordered online to our West Coast home, was guardedly excited to see how this phenomenal product has translated out west. I was delightfully surprised with not only the consistently amazing food, but also the accommodating and attentive customer service. I took an order to go with about an hour and a half drive to my home from the Santa Monica location and everything arrived perfectly and we thoroughly enjoyed our dinner. Keep up the great work!!!!“

“Great food, creative cuisine“

“Atmosphere, food on point“

“I have been coming here for over 20 years!! This staple of the community provides affordable seafood. A total hidden gem, you must try the ceviche tostadas and cocktails. Cash only!

Parking: Parking is very limited, if you are lucky you can get a spot next to the place.“

“I will like to give a shout out to the chef. I think his name is Shawn or Sean. When we got to Santa Monica, we looked up restaurants to go have our 26 year anniversary dinner, we stayed at Hotel Delmar right across the street. We googled the restaurant menu, and decided what we were going to have. when we got there, and they brought out the menus, all what we decided to have was not on there. I was crushed. Because I had my mind set on the Halibut. I said it's ok I will just have the Ribeye, mind you I had a ribeye steak the night before. When the waiter came back, my wife asked if it's possible to get the Halibut and he said let me check with the chef. He came back later and said the chef said it's no problem. I was blown away. That was the best Halibut ( besides mine) that I have ever had. Thank you chef Shawn. From one chef to another, thank you. you made my night.“

“Tranquil spot with various omakase options. Came here with my family for an early dinner and made a reservation online beforehand. We opted for the Sushi Bar Omakase for $109 which came with 8 courses (including dessert). A couple of courses had multiple pieces, and we left very full. The blue crab hand roll was my favorite part; it was huge, hot, and the sauce that accompanied it was delicious. The fish was super fresh and the pieces kept coming. It was fun to watch them being prepared right in front of us at the bar (there are table seats as well). We enjoyed our meal and I would recommend this for special occasions or a way to treat yourself.“

“Service, Lobster and oyster sampler was great!“

“Asked for a view in a 3/4 empty room, was told 2 people couldn't have the corner seat. Was offered an inferior view so we left. Bad business to turn away a couple over seat preferences. We have never been to a Bubba Gump Shrimp restraunt before, will never return either. Too bad. Went across the pier to Seaside on the pier and have an excellent view.“

“Great food , excellent customer service and friendly I will stop by all the time, because food are delicious 🤤“

“NIKU X delivers an impressive seafood & A5 wagyu steak buffet. The quality of the meats and seafood is top notch. The wagyu is tender and rich, and the seafood bar has good variety. The decor is stylish and the service attentive.

A few drawbacks: some items are a bit slow to be replenished, and the price is steep but for a special occasion it’s worth it.“

“Dine in if possible. 3 times I've come here and the food is always 👌🏽 but I did realize that my serving size was bigger when I ate there. Same food ordered 3 separate times both times I ate there I couldn't finish it and when I took it to go I devoured it 😅 just my 2 cents.“

“Great prices and food. The aguachiles are to die for🔥🔥🔥🔥“

“Great ambiance. Excellent choices. Definitely returning 👍😁“
