The food here is always delicious, and I especially love coming this time of year since they run their Lobster Fest all month long in September. The ambiance is a huge part of the draw--you just can't beat sitting down to eat fresh seafood while smelling the ocean. If there is one small downside, it's that the service can be a bit hit or miss. Sometimes the staff is really on top of it, and other times, not so much. Even with the unpredictable service, the food and that classic oceanfront vibe make it completely worth it every time. It's a great, laid-back spot that I will definitely keep coming back to.

The restaurant is run by Koreans who really highlight the flavor of the seafood and they have been in the business for as long as I can remember. The crab is steamed with a side of butter and you can get Tabasco by request. I also recommend their Gochujang! They sell a really delicious and hearty fish soup that I would not skip out on. Definitely try the other side of the restaurant to get the Clam Chowder!

It doesn't deserve it. So the service is not great, but that's because it's very busy. If you need to get in and out, this is not the place, but if you know what you're in for, enjoy the breakwater, and yummy eats. Yes, the food here is that good. Expensive, but really good. I always get the "large" size stew because leftovers are acceptable to bring home and they taste good. Also, the Haw Dwip Baap (sashimi binimbaap) is still really refreshing and good. So, I have a new rating system......I will be write what I feel honestly about an establishment. The only ratings I will give are 5 stars, which is enjoyable, or 3 stars which is "needs work."

The trash was overflowing, the toilet seat covers were smashed into the inserts, and there was paper all over the floor. Bathroom: 1/5. I sat down, and the menus were already on the table. I wasn't quite sure what I wanted to order, so we started with a lemonade and a tea. We ordered the Clobster roll with fries, and I ordered the Connecticut Style lobster roll with no fries and a side salad. The side salad with ranch dressing definitely hit the spot! Unfortunately, the Cajun shrimp roll didn't do it for me. It needed more flavor and mostly tasted like mayo. After two bites, I decided not to eat it and gave it to my son. He enjoyed his meal, though! I also ordered another lobster roll to go, along with a soda and fries, for a friend of mine who works down the street at the barbershop. I was also gifted a juice and a huge cookie, which was a nice touch! If there's one thing I'd change, it would definitely be the bathroom. Other than that, I enjoyed the TVs, the overall look and feel of the place, the area, and especially the guitars and décor. Those details really gave the restaurant some character. Would I come back? Yes -- but I'd definitely try something different next time. Thank you, Rudy! Overall rating: 3.8/5

From the moment we arrived, the experience was fantastic. We were greeted right away and seated within about 5 minutes--super quick and efficient! We were then immediately greeted by Celina, who was our waitress for the evening. We were seated just a table away from another large party that Celina was also taking care of, yet she handled both tables with ease and professionalism. She provided great recommendations for both appetizers and entrees, was prompt and incredibly personable, and really elevated the experience for our entire family. She made the evening fun and enjoyable. Kudos to Bluewater for hiring such amazing staff across the board! The food was fantastic, and everyone in our party was happy with their meals. I ordered the scallop dish along with a cup of clam chowder, and both were delicious. If you're a seafood lover, this is definitely a place to check out. Great food, great service, and a great overall experience. Thanks again, Celina, for taking such great care of our family!

We were catching up and talking quite a bit, so we didn't really notice the wait for the food. We started with the Maryland crab cakes and grilled octopus, and both appetizers were great. We then received our entrees, which included the halibut since they were out of the sanddabs. I ordered the halibut with scalloped potatoes and spinach. The flavors were definitely there, although the spinach could have been cooked a little more and the fish was slightly overcooked. The red chimichurri was a nice addition, but I felt like it could have had a little more flavor. My husband ordered the butter miso cod with rice and green beans. He enjoyed the dish overall, but felt that the rice was a bit undercooked and that the entree could have used a little more seasoning and depth of flavor. He also got the key lime pie dessert to go and totally enjoyed it. The drinks were great, and the bread was warm, fresh, and a nice way to start the meal. Between the view, service, drinks, appetizers, and overall atmosphere, we still had a really enjoyable evening. I just think the entrees could have been a little more polished, especially considering the quality of the rest of the experience. One thing worth mentioning is that there was a pretty pungent smell when we first arrived. It was noticeable enough to take me by surprise, although after being there for a while, I either got used to it or stopped noticing it. Overall, I'd give the experience 4 stars. There were definitely some highlights, and we enjoyed our evening, but I think the food has some room for improvement.

I have eaten at other Japanese Pasta spots and Unico is levels better. Which pasta did we devour? Uni pasta with shrimp top fav, one kid ate the curry bolognese filled with ground beef and veggies, Mentai pasta was a bit tangy and you can't go wrong a chicken Alfredo. If Erik is working that day, you will have the best service. The ambiance is spacious with lots of natural light and seating. Lots of free parking!

My wife and I recently visited Los Angeles to celebrate our 15th wedding anniversary and a major…read morebirthday milestone, and we were fortunate enough to discover Fishing With Dynamite. We had heard wonderful things about the restaurant, and after our experience, I can honestly say it exceeded every expectation. Because of our travel schedule, our only opportunity to visit was during lunch on the same day we had to catch a flight home across the country. From the moment we made our reservation to the moment we walked out the door, everything about our experience was exceptional. The restaurant itself is beautiful, with a wonderful corner location and a warm, inviting atmosphere. The service was terrific, and the food was outstanding. The four of us ordered a variety of dishes to share, and everything was incredibly fresh, beautifully presented, and absolutely delicious. Each dish felt thoughtfully prepared, and there was something special about being able to enjoy such a memorable meal together on an important day for our family. But what truly sets Fishing With Dynamite apart isn't just the food or the atmosphere -- it's the people. Every interaction we had with the staff was wonderful. From making the reservation, to our waitress who took such great care of us, to the servers who brought our food and drinks, everyone was friendly, attentive, welcoming, and genuinely seemed to care about making sure we had a great experience. And then something happened that took that feeling to an entirely different level. After we finished our meal, I accidentally left a small bag at the restaurant as we headed to the airport. I didn't realize it until we were already at LAX, sitting at the gate and preparing to board our flight home. My heart sank when I realized what had happened. The items inside -- AirPods, Beats headphones, an external battery pack, an expensive pair of sunglasses, and other things -- were replaceable, but a few of them were gifts and had sentimental value to me. Given that we were already at the airport, I had pretty much accepted that I would never see the bag again. My wife contacted Fishing With Dynamite, explained what had happened, and the staff immediately went to work trying to help. We were put back in touch with the waitress who had served us, and incredibly, she remembered us and was able to locate the bag. We offered to pay for shipping and for the inconvenience of someone having to take the package to the post office. Instead, later that day, the general manager reached out to us personally and assured us that they would be happy to ship everything back to us promptly -- and, even more incredibly, they wouldn't accept a penny from us for doing it. That gesture meant far more to me than simply getting my belongings back. In a world where customer service can sometimes feel transactional, the people at Fishing With Dynamite reminded me that there are still genuinely caring people who are willing to go out of their way to help someone simply because it's the right thing to do. We went to Fishing With Dynamite expecting a great lunch. We left with an incredible meal, wonderful memories from our anniversary trip, and an experience with a group of people that I will genuinely never forget. The food is fantastic. The restaurant is beautiful. The service is excellent. But most importantly, the people who work here truly care about their customers, and they proved it by going far beyond what anyone could reasonably expect.

I feel like the cost (with the economy as it is) makes sense. It is expensive, yes, but the freshness and quality of the food is so delightful, it breaks my heart to see the ratings go down because of it. Like many people in the reviews, I grew up with this place in my childhood. I used to come with my family to dine here, and it used to be SOOO busy. Getting seated with our group back then (7+ people) used to be an ordeal, but it was worth it every time. The most recent time I had went was as a party of 4, with my family and my boyfriend. The service was so lovely and sweet, the servers made us feel welcome right away and sat us by the window so we could watch the waves and sunset as we ate. My mom ordered most of the food, so I couldn't tell you the names, but we got lots of crab and a spicy sea stew that was very delightful. It was my boyfriend's first time trying the stew and he said he would come back and bring his family to try just that on its own. There's a parking structure that's attached to the pier, so parking is very easy to find. If you go during the day time, there are other shops and bars open for you to peruse and enjoy, but by the time we had finished eating, most of the other places had closed up shop haha. I definitely recommend trying this place at least once; the food, service, and view make up for the price in my humble opinion. Though, I feel like if you'll make it a semi-regular stop once you find yourself in Redondo.

It was smothered in some kind of spicy tomato based sauce with overcooked vegs. The shrimp was not fresh. The shells did not peel off clean and stuck to the shrimp meat.
