The prices…read moreare very reasonable and the sizes they sell in are great for use right away (unless you get a Cowboy Steak and that will feed two for two nights. All of their food is fresh frozen and comes from everywhere. We love their PICANHA, Brazilian Churrasco BBQ Rodizio style steak, but our favorite and the dogs favorite is their venison. We only feed our dogs fresh food, cooked daily and all of it is now from Wild Fork. They are picky and love to eat the bison and venison. They also have frozen items in small packs for two. We love their crab cakes and their lobster cakes. They have bread, we love their Parker Rolls. Their service is usually okay here, but don't leave something in the bottom of my cart and then, honest me, I tell them after all is bagged and they make me wait in line. That was bad form. It is clear I am disabled and making me wait and wait is just not okay. This place is small, but very clean.

My husband and I find ourselves purchasing from Wild Fork quite often so that we are saving money on smaller portions of foods that the two of us enjoy. This is better for us instead of the need to buy "family packs" of meat that would generally be too hard for us to finish. Yes, all items at Wild Fork are meant to be purchased frozen and then defrosted for when you're ready to cook. All manors of food are available, not just meats, lending a hand to being a one-stop-shop for your needs. From meats to breads to veggies, Wild Fork has it all. The staff at the Manhattan Beach location has always been beyond kind and very helpful. They've even been helpful with occasionally recommending recipes for items we are thinking of purchasing. The store has an overall laid-back feeling to it, almost as if the most chilled out grocery store that you could imagine.

Lots of parking in front and around the store.

It's unexpectedly large for a place by the shore, and I was thrilled because even though I checked Yelp and Google, I couldn't find much info. They're open super early and stay open late, and it's just such a gem especially since that area tends to shift toward restaurants or other businesses. This neighborhood really needed a good grocery store, and they have everything: fresh meat, drinks, snacks, fruits just like a full local grocery. The staff was really nice and laid-back, though the only downside is that parking is super limited and intersection it's tough to get in and out since it's near a small with a red light. Still, I'm really glad it's there, and I want to give a big shout-out to the local folks to support this place. The prices are really reasonable, and we need to keep these local businesses thriving. they're the heart of the community. I gave them five stars. I just hope they can clean it up a bit inside, maybe freshen up the shelves or ceiling. But overall, I'm so happy it's here, and we need more of these places in our city.

The flavor was very mild and light which some may prefer, but I like it more saucy. The noodles were all very soft, which again some may prefer but I like some thrown in that are a little burnt/crisp. The lime was a good addition to add citrus flavor and the chicken was good. Maybe I need to try other dishes on the menu as this was a limited time option that perhaps needs a little more work/feedback! A positive was very friendly staff and good service!

Was looking for a spot to eat at manhattan beach and based on my trusty yelpers reviews this seemed…read morelike the foodie spot to try. They weren't wrong. We started with the ceviche in Clamato with pieces of crab and avocado served with a delicious tortilla chips. I absolutely loved the flavor profile and couldn't get enough of the Clamato sauce. Then we moved to the weekend only special sea urchin, which Stephanie's parents personally bring down from Santa Barbara for weekend service. I'm usually indifferent at best to sea urchin, but this was excellent Then we shared the Jonah Crab Fusilli, another winner. I was driving, but hubby ordered a banhattan and it was another winner. They also have some beer and wine options as well as a full bar. Though very full by this point, just couldn't resist the pretzel bread pudding. The bread portion was crispy on the outside and warm and soft on the inside with a delicious salty caramel sauce. Served with a very smooth and delectable scoop of ice cream. There's indoor and outdoor seating. If you want to sit inside best to make a reservation. We did not have reservations, but were lucky to get outside seating. Service was fluid with different people coming around to ensure everything was tidy. Really enjoyed one of the staff, a young girl who cleared our table and delivered some of the dishes. Loved her chill surferish vibes.

Definitely suited our sensibilities to be close to the heart of this treasure, plus it can get cold out there! When our friendly and helpful server learned that we'd never been to FwD before, we were both treated a tasty amuse, a Peruvian scallop, one of their specialties. Served chilled, absolute heaven. Simple, fresh, delicious, and very pretty atop its shell. We ordered an appetizer, a different scallop dish, Pan Seared Diver Scallops. (Parsnip-potato puree, brown butter ponzu, capers). So good. Succulent, perfectly cooked and devilishly satisfying with its rich, savory flavor. We enjoyed the one dish that have been on their menu since the beginning, Koshihikari Rice. (short-grain Japanese rice, overnight chicken dashi, shrimp, uni, blue crab, cage-free egg yolk.) Wow. So much happening here, and yet it's a complete package. All the ingredients meld together sumptuously. It akin to Paella, or perhaps to a stuffed Risotto, although the Koshihikari Rice was very much its own dish. The server swerved and mixed the egg yolk on our plate, and we loved it. Our strategy to try a number of dishes and yet still have room for dessert worked. Many great choices, and I doubt we'd be disappointed with anything. However, we had heard from the table next to use that the key-lime pie was must. Happily, they were right. This Key Lime Pie is just sweet and just tart enough. Though I am not Key Lime Pie expert, this one struck me as imaginative with its meringue colony crowding the pie's surface for additional dessert debauchery. There nothing overwhelmingly citrusy about it, and it was light enough to help you feel satisfied and just right. The coffee was good, too. This is a low-key yet lovely dining experience in Manhattan Beach.
