in regards to the service, ambiance, and overall vibes, everything at Rock N Fish was immaculate. a super fun date location, or if just hanging with friends. however the food was just okay. 7/10. peruvian scallops were good, not as tasty as Saffy's, but i'd def order again. We also ordered a surf n turf with a medium rare steak, but it was cooked well-done :~( as well as the mac n cheese (bland and also over baked) since I'm too shy to complain, and we didn't wanna wait for the food to cook again, so we just ate it. lobster was good, would definitely order that again too. and the oysters were scrumptious! I suppose if we came back here, we would just stick to the seafood. read more

Good food, good portion size, priced perfectly. Sat in the front, not a bad seat in the house, but I thought the bar area was a cool spot. Started with the sour dough bread. Seafood jambalaya was excellent, as was the salmon sandwich, we also tried the tacos, and the lobster roll (ct style) was a good portion. Definitely try the Kona Pie. My only feedback is I was looking for a bigger variety on both their food and drink menu, despite both menus having a lot of options. read more

Great place to have a Instagram worthy meal because it's located right by Manhattan Beach! The ambiance was lively & busy. The servers were kind & fast. Coconut Mahi Sliders 7.5/10: was a bit pricey for 3 sliders & was advertised as a shareable meal for $22. Perhaps if there was one more slider it would have been a more of an equal share among two people. They were tasty, but could have used a bit more crunch & coconut for the breaded mahi King Salmon 8/10: delicious! The salmon was cooked beautifully, the honey broccoli was great. The honey compliments the bitterness of the broccoli! The mashed potatoes were tasty as well. Great dish Creme Brle 8.5/10: the sugar on top was perfect, however, the custard inside was a bit cold. Other than that the flavors were there & very tasty Overall a great place for a large gathering or for a more intimate date! Definitely would visit again to try other dishes. read more

Great Food! AMAZING life saver. Got delayed at LAX, came to Manhattan Beach, landed in Rock n' Fish for Great lobster cocktail, the best Gumbo outside New Orleans, cold brews and some amazing side dishes. Service is fantastic and super fast. The front patio and baranda made us feel we had started our vacation. Stop by, you'll be happy and you'll be back with friends! read more

We had a great pre-sunset meal tonight. First time there. Our server, Danny, was great and attentive. We have two sensitive celiac kids and he was very knowledgeable on the gluten free options. We were so happy to hear they had a dedicated fryer for the french fries! One child had a half rack of the baby back rib ribs with the yummy bbq sauce, the other had a grilled cheese on a gluten-free bun and they were both satisfied, which says a lot! We were also very impressed by Rachel, the front of house manager. Before the kitchen fired our meals, she came and checked in with us to discuss the safety protocols and the inherent risk of cross contamination in a small kitchen that is shared with lots of gluten items. I had the blackened halibut. It seemed more just Cajun spiced than a cast iron/ blackened crust but it was delicious nonetheless. Also gluten free, as were the mashed potatoes and asparagus. Spouse had the shrimp tacos and gave them a big thumbs up, but was left a little hungry and wished there was one more to the order. Thank you to the lovely staff. It's hard to find places that are safe for our kids to eat, and we really appreciate them going above and beyond to make our experience a great one. We will be back! read more

My best friend and I enjoyed this place for a night away from the kids! For drinks, we had a painkiller and an espresso martini. We were happy both drinks were not too light on the alcohol! The painkiller was good, but the espresso martini was really good! We had a light meal with the brussels sprouts and tuna nachos. The nachos were excellent! The servers were very friendly, but maybe it was just too busy as drinks were not refilled promptly and we had to ask for the check after waiting for quite some time for our server to return. We loved the decor and atmosphere. I especially liked the etched windows and mermaid pictures. read more

Found this place on Yelp on our way to LAX. We had some time to kill, we pulled off the 405, took it west to the water, and got this place as it had some great reviews. Stated with Calamari and an order of coconut shrimp. the Calamari was perfect and so fresh. Shrimp was tremendous in size and very good. We all ordered the Jambalaya, not a Louisiana Jambalaya, but good. we all felt that was a little to much rice. could have used a little more seafood for the rice. Jill, our server was amazing, Couldn't have been more pleasant. read more

The food and experience here was amazing. We had the Ceaser, crab cakes, spicy Mac and cheese, French fries which were all five stars. And a space brain beer. The fish tacos were not as good but still good x. The service was excellent read more

I love this restaurant. I used to go to the one at LA LIVE. Now that it is closed I have to go all the way to Manhattan Beach. Their Clam Chowder alone is worth a drive. I've eaten so many things from there and never was disappointed. I miss their crab cake burger but they took that off the menu I think. Cesar Salad good and they give you large portions. read more

My second time here, and it was wonderful. Watching the sunset from their open-air deck made dinner more special. My hostess Tricia was amazing, giving me her very best with a warm and genuine smile. I started with a Moscow Mule and Fried Calamari. The Calamari was fried perfectly with a delicious tartar sauce as a dip. The Moscow Mule with the candied ginger was also good. I ordered the Hot Butter Rum drink, which was as good as it sounds. I asked for extra caramel and that made it perfect. The manager suggested the Pumpkintini, and it is one of my favorites now. For dinner, I went with the Fish and Chips. The fish was fried in a crispy batter and French Fries that were pretty good. Extra Tartar sauce made the dish complete. I didn't have room for dessert, but I plan on coming back to give the Kona Pie a try! read more

Man oh man I was worried. I made reservations for lunch for my friends and I and only one of my friends had been here before. She had been here once pre pandemic and she said her food wasn't anything memorable. I read a lot of the reviews and saw a lot of the pictures and everything LOOKED good but I was hesitant. As soon as we walked up they were able to get us seated. We were greeted soon by our patient waitress who walked us through menu and gave us recommendations. We ordered a lot and everything was bomb. We had the grilled artichoke, poke, calamari, cioppino, bbq shrimp, fish tacos, jambalaya pasta, and the bbq burger. Everyone enjoyed their food and drinks! The think pink, watermelon margarita and the pear martini (I think) was amazing. For 5 adults our meal was about $350 which was great because we ordered 2 rounds and drinks and appetizers. I would definitely love to come back. read more

we have been coming to Rock and fish for a while, and I have to tell you the management and the food and the service has been exceptional, Ian the bartender we've had a few times knows how to make drinks and it's so friendly we are always happy to come in... this place offers a great vibe, great seafood, and a great cocktail menu! You have to try their navy grog!!! Ian will greet you and make sure you always have a cocktail so you have to come and see your bartenders and enjoy some good food here at rockin fish.... read more

Sitting outside is stunning. Located in the heart of a vibrant uptown Manhattan beach you have walking distance access to the beach and retail shops/stores. The navy grog cocktail which they heavily pushed in November was something I would definitely not recommend. Everything was beautifully presented, but that drink was not it. The rest of the meal was great. Lots of seafood and steak options. I enjoyed the popcorn shrimp and mahi fish. I wasn't a huge fan of the lobster roll and French fries (I've had better elsewhere so my expectations were high) but the sauces given with the mahi were fantastic. read more

I don't like leaving bad reviews but unfortunately the oysters will make you sick and even though the location is great, got food poisoning from the oysters, after ER visit due to getting sick with experiencing terrible symptoms, the doctor recommended not having oysters in specific seasons from certain places that is contaminated with vibriosis. This location is still serving guest with oysters.Very disappointed with the experience and the damage it has caused with on going issues due to present bacteria. Will not recommend unfortunately. This location needs to be more responsible to ensure that all these issues are addressed before someone else becomes very ill. read more

My daughter and I love seafood and had a mom and daughter trip to Cali. We wanted something by the beach and we are so glad that we picked this place. We happen visit while they have the lighting of the pier and it was decked out in Christmas. Super festive and fun, even the employees had Christmas sweaters. It was a lovely, sunny afternoon and we ate outside with the view of the ocean. We enjoyed the blackened halibut & macadamia nut crusted mahi mahi. It was so yummy. We also tried the drink special and it was tasty and pretty. Our waitress was just wonderful. I wish I had room for dessert, but we were so full. We will def visit when back in town again. read more

What a surprise. I did not expect this place to be so good. Usually places by the beach are going to be mediocre. First off, the moment I walked into this place, it gave off an incredibly homey vibe. We came today during the holiday season and everything is decorated up with lights, christmas tree, and the reefs. The food was exquisite. I not only have a delicious fish of day meal but the sides of salad and mashed potatoes kept me full. Great ambiance, great food, and ocean breeze what more can you ask for. Also, our server Jill was incredibly kind and gave the most amazing service. 5 stars all around. read more

This place needs a new chef. Everything we tried (multiple dishes) was average. I guess they're skating by on their location.

Great atmosphere, nice staff. Delicious cocktails. Lobster roll was very disappointing, always cold, no flavor other than some celery. Fish dishes very nicely seasoned but all items were a little overcooked. Vegetables delicious. Salads fine. I would happily eat here again but nothing was that great and the better looking items were $50-70 plus but with the taste of the $25-40 items, I am not sure I would trust a splurge here. Definitely recommend it for vibe, drinks and shared appetizers. read more

Clam chowder, blackened halibut with two sides. The chowder has lots of clams and nice flavour but lukewarm at best! Disappointing at this price point Halibut had nice flavour not overpowering on the blackened. Maybe tad overdone Service was excellent and suggested good sides and attentive Ambiance casual but very attractive. Huge bar Would I come back? Yes 4 star due to the soup and slightly over done halibut. read more

Love, love. Love this place. Try to book sunset time to enjoy the view and Navy Grog (ask for it to be "served up") and you won't regret! Their calamari appetizer is delicious, we love the shrimp cocktail as well. I love that they have kids menu as well which includes some healthy options which is rare. Cioppino is my favorite though I recently tried Hawaiian ribeye and it was top notch! The only menu item I don't like there is the grilled artichokes-they are quite small and hard-ish but I guess it can be the matter of taste. Otherwise we love this place! read more

I miss young knees. That should be on a t-shirt. And if it were, I would have proudly worn it this evening. 9 gazillion people were all attempting to park for sunset dinner, me included. I found a space on the top floor of a parking structure about a 7 minute walk to the restaurant which by the way, is all downhill. My knees were cussing me up one side and down the other and all the while all I could think about was the walk back up the hill after dinner. It wasn't horrible, but let me reiterate, I miss young knees. My guy was craving cioppino and I had no desire to shop for seafood so the next best option was Rock'N Fish. Resy reservation and just like that we were on our way to sunset dinner. MB was hopping, as was the restaurant. Glad we made reservations. We shared crab cakes and a wedge salad which was enough for 3 people because the salad actually arrived with 3 wedges. Love the spicy remoulade served with the crab cakes. He had cioppino and against my better judgement, I had the shrimp scampi. I was full from salad and crab cakes but I wanted something garlicky- this dish hit the spot even though most of it ended up being leftovers for lunch the next day. Danny our friendly server was cool and that he had to go up and down a flight of stairs to serve us, he obviously has young knees. We ended up watching the sunset, then moving upstairs to get out of the swift breeze...only to watch the staff close the garage door like barrier that kept the wind out. We would have stayed had we known it was only minutes until the door closed. They were out of the warm sourdough, but I was happy about that - because we were beyond full. Terrific portion sizes for sure! read more
