Unfortunately at this time we do not offer bottomless mimosas anymore.

Nope. With only outside seating, they still do not allow dogs. In fact, even if you say your dogs can be tied to the public bench, they hesitate. I insisted because it's a PUBLIC bench and they finally agreed.

My only complaint is that I wish there had been more meat on top. At $15.50, you are paying quite a bit for fries with toppings, so a little extra birria would have made the dish feel like a better value. The Caesar salad with chicken is an absolute must.

When we arrived at our table, they had a card signed by staff congratulating us, and it was a night to remember. Great food, great service, and the warm hand towels after my dad demolished the baby back ribs were the cherry on top! Our group also ordered the chilean sea bass, salmon, and bistro plate. 10/10.

Noise level was moderate, but definitely quieter outside. If you get nothing else from this review, just remember this: ORDER THE WARM BUTTER CAKE. YOU WILL NEVER REGRET IT.

My review of this restaurant is long overdue but I finally have the time to share my experience at my new favorite restaurant!! My wife and I had some friends visiting us from out of town a couple weeks ago and we wanted to take them to a nice seafood restaurant. At first we thought of the charthouse, but then decided to try something new and decided rock 'n fish would be a fun, new place to check out. We made reservations for a Saturday night, and i suggest you do the same, because the place gets very very busy. The hostess was very friendly and sat us just as we arrived. The restaurant was very beautiful, but the most impressive feature was the huuuge bar! It stretched all the way up to the ceiling and was so big they had a ladder for the bartenders to climb up so they could reach some of the more expensive bottles of whiskey. The ambience there was upbeat, and although it was really noisy inside, it didn't bother us much at all. No more than a minute after we sat down our server came and greeted us, I'm pretty sure his name was Mike. He was very enthusiastic and he clicked with us instantly. He asked if we had ever been here before, and when we said no he seemed excited to tell us about the place. All their fish comes in fresh daily, and all their meat is USDA prime! Our friends are somewhat of "wine snobs" and were very impressed with the wine selection and the reasonable prices. Mike was extremely knowledgable about all the wine my friends asked him about and recommended two different bottles of wine for us that we both loved! My wife ordered the Blackened Halibut, which came out absolutely perfect! The fish was blackened to the point where it had a definite cajun taste to it, but it wasn't overpowering and you could definitely still taste the fish. It was very soft and cooked to perfection. I went with our servers recommendation by ordering the cioppino and I have to admit, it was easily the best meal I've had in a looooong time. The cioppino came out steaming in a black pot filled with huge scallops, shrimp, clams, fish, and crab. My mouth is watering just thinking about it again. Our friends enjoyed their meals as well and we all agreed that it was some of the best seafood we've ever had. The food portions were very generous and if it wasn't all so delicious we probably would have had some left over to take home with us. After everything was said and done, my wife and I easily agreed that this was our new favorite restaurant. The location was romantic, the vibe was fun and energetic, the service was top notch, and the food was out of this world. I highly recommend this place to anyone, and I will definitely be going back... hopefully sooner than later. read more

My wife and I came from Nebraska to Los Angeles this summer to enjoy the beach, and see what this big city had to offer. We don't get much fresh seafood in Nebraska and were looking forward to getting some here in Manhattan Beach. We found Rock 'n Fish online and knew we had to give it a try after reading all the positive yelp reviews about the place. We didn't make reservations and came in around 8:00, we waited ten minutes before being sat. The restaurant itself is beautiful, its located no more than a hundred yards from the water and has a huge open sliding door that let in all the fresh ocean air. The inside is decorated with mermaids and all kinds of different glass murals. The menu was very big and was filled with things like oysters, seafood salads, sandwiches, fire grilled fish, pastas, and steaks. Our server Mike helped us sort through everything and recommended we try a tuna appetizer, then the crab cakes and the cioppino for dinner. The bread that was served before our dinner was to die for, it was a big hunk of freshly baked sourdough bread that was crispy on the outside and very hot and soft on the inside. The appetizer we ordered was a mixture of avocado, cucumbers, shrimp, and tuna all tossed together in an asian dressing and served with wonton chips. I don't remember being very fond of raw fish but this dish was incredible. My wife's crab cakes were delicious as well, easily the best we've ever had. I sometimes find crab cakes to be somewhat bland, but the spicy dipping sauce they were served with really make them extraordinary. The cioppino I ordered was star of the show. It was the first time I've ever had cioppino but I can assure you I will be ordering it wherever I see it from now on. The soup was a spicy tomato broth loaded with fresh vegetables, clams, jumbo shrimp, scallops, and crab. It was perfect, I really don't know how else to describe it. My wife and I both used to work in restaurants and really admire what Rock 'n Fish had to offer. The fresh ocean breeze, friendly staff, and amazing food were very appreciated. Mike was very friendly and spot on with his recommendations. My wife and I are only in town for 5 more days, but we will surely be back. read more

Rock'N Fish offers a vibrant dining experience that captures the essence of Southern California living. With its unbeatable location in Manhattan Beach and open-air charm, it's a great spot to if you're visiting as a tourist (me). My Overall Rating - 4 Stars (Atmosphere, Service, Food, Return) Atmosphere - The location is absolutely incredible. Sitting so close to the beach, the restaurant takes full advantage of its surroundings with wide open windows that let in a refreshing ocean breeze and tons of natural light. It genuinely feels like you're dining outdoors without sacrificing comfort. 1 Star. Service - The staff was friendly, attentive, and knowledgeable about the menu. Our server made great recommendations and checked in just the right amount. Our server was always smiling and made it a point to ensure we were enjoying our experience. 1 Star. Food - I ordered the "New Awwlins" BBQ Shrimp, expecting a bold, smoky, Southern-style dish. What I got was something entirely different. It tasted more like a sweet and sour shrimp dish served with rice. It was a pretty dish though. It was confusing and underwhelming, and honestly, it doesn't belong on an otherwise solid menu. On the other hand, everyone in my party had great dishes. No one complained and everyone was happy. 1 Star. Will I Return? - Yes. "It's not you, it's me". The location, atmosphere, and the rest of the menu make Rock'N Fish a great spot for a casual yet elevated beachside meal. Next time, I'll just steer clear of the BBQ shrimp. 1 Star. read more

I had an outstanding experience at RockN Fish in Manhattan Beach, all thanks to the incredible bartender, Desiree! It was a busy night when I arrived, and while waiting for my sister, I decided to grab a drink at the bar. I was immediately greeted with a friendly smile, which set the perfect tone for the evening. Desiree recommended the Navy Grog cocktail, along with the artichoke oak-grilled appetizer and popcorn shrimp. Let me tell you, the popcorn shrimp was one of the best I've ever had--definitely top-notch compared to other places I've tried! What impressed me even more was how Desiree anticipated my needs. She even provided an extra napkin for when I squeezed the orange in my drink. I was originally supposed to sit at a table, but the exceptional service, great recommendations, and vibrant atmosphere made me decide to stay at the bar. My sister ended up joining me there, and we had a wonderful dinner together. I will definitely return to Rockin Fish whenever I'm in the area. Thank you, Desiree, for such a fantastic experience! read more

When I am in the area I always try and hit this place up. I love the atmosphere in here and the staff and management are always so friendly. It was a Sunday night and we got a great table on the patio, it was cooler out but we were fine with the heaters on. Our server was super nice and very attentive...we hit her up with some questions and she was very knowledgeable and made some great recommendations...We ordered a dozen oysters...Kumiai is what were told and they were delicious! For dinner, I went with Rib-eye and my date went with the BBQ shrimp, both were fantastic! The rib-eye is marinated and absolutely the most tender and flavorful rib-eye I have had anywhere. It was cool and refreshing to see how the staff worked so good together...The mngr stopped by to say hello, fill our waters and ask how everything was, our server Danielle was great too. This is a great little find in the South Bay. Sourdough bread and mac n cheese are must haves too! read more

I really enjoy coming here for drinks after a long week.There's a nice vibe and the place feels really comfortable. I've been working myself down the menu and everything in my experience has been from good to great. I've never waited long for a table, so service has been on point, that is until my last visit. Basically, my character was called into question when I requested to have my dinner exchanged for a new one. I leave the specifics out, because ultimately I think this was rectifiable service issue, not necessarily a issue with the restaurant itself. I come from a background where customer is always right and that they should be treated with as much respect as possible. I did not receive that. It's disappointed because i still would recommend this restaurant to any future diners; however, I think I may have paid my last visit here. read more

I passed by this place on daily basis and every time and I ended up going to a different restaurant. So last week when the line was not too crazy I thought I give it a shot with the girlfriend. Guys the Place is called Rock N Fish for a reason, for people that complain of Loud music, so If you are not into rock and looking for a classical piano, this is not a place for you. I actual really enjoyed the patio and view and the music. Nicely decorated. The service is fairy quick for the busy restaurant, with friendly waitress. Now the food could get pricey, and it is a hit and miss. but it is consistent and quality. The Fish dishes were good but the clam chowder lack flavor. I be back to try more food and I be writing an update on that. read more

Not to mention the sourdough bread. One of the other reasons to go there. It's the best, warm and slathered with butter. Service: This time we had a party of 8. Everyone was taken care of efficiently and with friendly and competent service which for some restaurants can be a challenge! No problem here. Ambiance: What can be better than dining a few minutes from the ocean! I could see a beautiful sunset over the ocean from my seat ( street side patio). The lively atmosphere has a great beach vibe and everyone really had a great time. So fun! read more

I recently visited Rock'N Fish with my buddy, and we had an amazing experience! We started with the calamari, which hit the spot--perfectly cooked and flavorful. I ordered the fish & chips, which were crispy and absolutely delicious--some of the best I've had in a while. We also enjoyed a couple of beers, which were excellent. The service was fantastic from start to finish. The hostess greeted us warmly, and our server was attentive and friendly throughout the meal. It's clear the staff here cares about providing a top-notch experience. We rode our bikes to the restaurant, so I can't comment on parking, but the location is convenient, and the atmosphere was vibrant and welcoming. read more

My food at Rock n Fish was phenomenal, as usual! The service was amazing, and I owe a big thank you to Jada. She made my dining experience exceptional. Welcome to the Rock n Fish family, Jada! I'll definitely be back soon. I must commend Sean, the manager, for his exceptional service. Sean is always right on time, ensuring that everything runs smoothly and that every guest feels valued. His attention to detail, warm hospitality, and efficient management make dining here a delightful experience. Additionally, it's always a pleasure to see Carlos, who adds an extra touch of warmth and friendliness to the experience. Kudos for making Rock'n Fish a standout restaurant! read more

I went here with my friend about a month ago for my second time and will keep going back! One of the best filet mignons I have ever had. It melted in my mouth and when I got a box with it to take it home, I ate it about 2 hours later and it was still melting in my mouth! The mashed potatoes and shoe string fries were amazing. I also had an artichoke appetizer which was good, I just wasn't a fan of the dipping sauce. I wish they would have brough melted butter but it's just my taste buds, I know other people would like it. Service was the best I've ever had, I think his name was Jack and he was just so pumped and funny. A definite winner! read more

This place was pretty cool. I really liked the location only a block away from the Manhattan beach Pier. I was in town visiting friends, and this was a fun place to go for dinner and drinks around sunset. BEAUTIFUL SUNSET! beautiful people all over the place, fun, lively atmosphere. I really enjoyed it. Was a little on the pricey side, but the environment made up for it. The ribs were great, was em down with a couple blue moons, was a great way to start the night. No 5 stars because it was pretty crowded when we went and the service came off a little rushed and not very attentive, but overall it was a good experience. read more

Rock'N Fish has a good, bustling vibe that gets even busier weekend nights. There's more than just the outside tables, there's a decent sized bar inside and more seating to be had in the interior. Portions are generous and the food is good. The wait staff are quick and responsive, and make sure you're all set (and that the tables are turning). If you're looking for some good seafood, washed down with a cold drink while having the breeze of the pacific in your face - check out Rock'N Fish!Pro tips - if you want take out, you need to order before 6pm. On weekends, the outside seating may require a food purchase. read more

The food here is pretty good. I've had a lot of dishes here that I can honestly say were more bland than I thought. I just don't think the food is creative enough, I guess not coming from the chef's heart but it definitely good standard steak and seafood. I had the filet mignon once though and I can honestly say it was one of the best I've ever had, the meat melted like butter. I didn't even really have to cut it with a knife. The navy grog's are killer, you will definitely get a buzz after one and I think they taste great although a lot of people I know don't like them. read more

The food here is amazing!! I love it, love it, love it!! For starters we had the ahi tartare appetizer which was super delish and the grilled artichoke which was probably the best artichoke I have ever eaten in my life!! For a main course I got the blackened halibut with the spicy mac n'cheese and the grilled vegetables which were all super tasty!! I definitely would recommend all of these items!! Oh and I can't forget the bread that they bring out, it was hot and yuuuuummmmyyy!! And I am not usually a bread fan. I will most definitly be visting rock n' fish again! read more

This place is fantastic! If you are going on a weekend I highly recommend a reservation. The grilled artichoke is wonderful! I am from the east coast and had never had one before and I think everyone must try one. THe macadamia nut encrusted mahi mahi is to die for. It comes with a very sweet pineapple buerre blanc sauce that I enjoyed so much I that I found a similar recipe online and made it at home. The pricing is standard for manhattan beach and it is only a couple of spots up from the pier. read more

We visited Rock'N Fish during an anniversary trip to CA. This was just an afternoon snack so we had some apps and a drink. The shrimp mango ceviche and mahi sliders apps were very good. I've been told the grilled artichoke app is fantastic but we were not craving that at the time. Good drink and wine choices. It's a little pricy but understood given Manhattan Beach. It is just up the street from the pier so location is fantastic. I do think it's worth stopping in for a bite and drink. Enjoy! read more

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.

From the incredible waterfront views to the amazing food and outstanding service, it made for the perfect date night. We started with the clam chowder and crab cakes, which were both fantastic. For our entrées, we had the Linguini Del Mar and the Petite Filet (added a side of peppercorn sauce), and every single bite was delicious. Everything was cooked perfectly, beautifully presented, and packed with flavor. The highlight of the evening, though, was our server, Greg. He made us feel completely at home from the moment we sat down. His recommendations were spot on, he was attentive without ever being intrusive, and when my girlfriend got a little chilly on the patio, he even brought her a blanket without us having to ask. It's those thoughtful little touches that truly elevate an experience. As the sun began setting over the marina, Alison Brecht performed live acoustic music that created the most romantic atmosphere. She even took a couple requests, including mine and my girlfriend's favorite songs. Sitting outside by the fire table, enjoying an incredible meal while listening to live music and watching the boats in the harbor, felt like something out of a movie. It was the perfect backdrop for celebrating our anniversary. Sea Level exceeded every expectation we had. Between the outstanding food, exceptional service from Greg, beautiful waterfront views, and Alison Brecht's wonderful performance, this was one of the most memorable date nights we've had. We can't wait to celebrate here again. We will most definitely be back soon and could not recommend this lovely restaurant more if you're in the area !

We got there a little early, before they opened, but the manager sat us anyway. I got the avocado toast with smoked salmon. It came with a watermelon wedge and a side salad.

One friend got the chicaquiles with no modifications and the other got hers with modifications, no meat, no eggs, add green peppers. They both loved them. They said the sauce was good.

I…read morerecently returned for my birthday, and while the food was still very good, the overall experience didn't quite live up to what I remembered. We started with the Fett'unta and Grilled Sprouting Cauliflower, and both were excellent. The cauliflower was easily one of the standout dishes of the night. For our mains, we shared the Love Letter Discoteca pasta, Whole Branzino, Angus Ribeye, and both the Japanese Mushrooms and Spicy Soppressata pizzas. Everything was flavorful, well prepared, and perfect for sharing. Unfortunately, the rest of the experience fell a little flat. The dining room was very loud, and we were seated right by the front door, so there was a constant flow of people walking by. I understand every restaurant has a few less-than-ideal tables. I worked in restaurants myself but it definitely affected the experience. If you're dining with a smaller group, I'd recommend sitting at the bar instead. From what I remember from previous visits, the bartenders are fantastic, and I actually prefer the atmosphere there. I had also noted on my reservation that we were celebrating my birthday. I wasn't expecting a complimentary dessert or anything, but I was surprised that neither the host nor our server acknowledged it with even a simple "Happy Birthday." It's a small detail, but thoughtful hospitality goes a long way in making a celebration feel special.

I did not dine in the restaurants, so I can't speak to the in-person dining experience. Overall, I was impressed with the room service. Every meal arrived fresh, hot, and well-presented, and each staff member who delivered my food was friendly and courteous. Here are my thoughts on the items I ordered: Cali Burrito - Generous chunks of steak and shrimp made this a yummy with the portion size just right, and I thoroughly enjoyed it. Clam Chowder - Good flavor and enjoyable overall. While I've had better clam chowder elsewhere, I would definitely order this again. Truffle Fries - I was craving ties so this hit the spot. Both the ketchup and black garlic sauce complemented them perfectly. Brussels Sprouts - Unfortunately, this dish missed the mark for me. There was too much sauce, which made it soggy and mushy, and the overall flavor was overly salty. Chocolate cake - this was a miss. It was dry. Cornmeal Pancakes - Absolutely delicious. The blueberry butter elevated the dish, and it was easily one of my favorite items during my stay. Overall, I was very pleased with my room service experience.

We enjoyed the crabcake benedict, Huevos 'Redondos', Chia Pudding, and American Breakfast with bacon. The benedict was absolutely delicious and a special treat, the Huevos 'Redondos' was so very flavorful, and the American Breakfast is always a fan favorite. The breakfast potatoes are some of the best you will find. The portions are perfect, enough to fill your tummy. Enjoy the food, enjoy the scenery, enjoy the service!
