Skywriter11November 7, 2018Varied menu & best tasting seafood I’ve had! Hands down, expertly prepared. Make reservations because they are packed! And worth it. Oh and don’t be afraid to ask questions, they know their menu!
Los AngelesOctober 17, 2013The new location offers an iced shellfish platter that serves five called “The King”: whole Channel Island sea urchin, whole lobster, whole crab, and a gathering of shrimp, oysters and clams.Upvoted Feb 24
Meech WellsNovember 20, 2013Had amazing Malaspina oysters and the Alaskan Halibut! Don't forget to have some of the Aussie Mollydooker as well. Jay was a great server, chill environment. 8/10
Toni BMarch 11, 2015Great service, fantastic location (try and get a table by the open windows) and the food was excellent (but expect to pay quite a bit)
DmytroFebruary 11, 2015Great restaurant! Nice design, good location, ocean view, food is delicious. Frito Misto, owen baked black bream, great kids menu. Good selection of draught beer
A M..January 6, 2019Food is sooo good.. one of the best places for seafood.. good service.. amazing view of sunset
Megan CampbellJune 26, 2017The view, our server and the James River oysters we had were amazing! The hostess and our entrees left a lot to be desired. Pretty high price tag for overcooked lobster and shrimp.
Natalie KMarch 9, 2017Yummy & fresh seafood. Highlights: sourdough/sea salt bread, tuna poke, and Spanish octopus
- Tasting TableAugust 5, 2014The pièce de résistance: The King shellfish platter ($150), baited with oysters, scallops, clams, periwinkles, shrimp, mussels, lobster, crab and urchin. Read more
The fish specials are always great. If you're one of the rare people who don't mind bones, order it escabeche style
Alessandra LuiseAugust 26, 2014So many kind of oysters, try Naked Cowboys and Bahia Falsa. Cioppino soup then is just delicious! Seafood is FRESH. (they make Epresso)
Jaydee QuekSeptember 5, 2017For a group of 9, we ordered the king platter and a main course each... We couldn't finish! The lobsters are huge btw
Susan GreenOctober 6, 2013A sibling of the famed Water Grill downtown, this does not disappoint. Lively atmosphere, fab raw bar, and beautiful views of the ocean.- A M..January 19, 2019the fish (white snapper) is delicious.. Lobster roll is so heavy.. there isa lot of butter in the bread.. I didn’t like it 🙁
Naz F. GérdabiFebruary 22, 2014So many fish choices it was hard to choose one but i scored with the MAHI MAHI. Perfect meaty white fish in delicious brown sauce. The lobster sandwich was not good, so bland no flavor.
Arturo AmadorDecember 23, 2016Great service, the Alaska cod fish was very tasty. Great beer selection and wines. Great spot to watch the sunset 😉
- Joe ChuMay 7, 2019Really good bread. Oh and the best things about the bread is it’s free. Expensive and small portion to complement. But, it’s upscale Santa Monica with the view.
Kuo-yu LiangJanuary 18, 2020Classy restaurant with well prepared seafood and wine list. Good for business meetings.
Dan SteinbergOctober 16, 2013Lobster Roll "Connecticut" style was the best Cali interpretation of a back east standard that I've had yet it LA.
Nicolle BeizaJuly 6, 2014The bread putting is the most amazing desert ever!!! Also the Chilean Butter Seabass is my favorite!- Les GeeAugust 24, 2014Appetizer shellfish sampler! Crab, oyster, mussel, prawn, clam, scallop, lobster, snail! Outstanding!
Edward ForteAugust 5, 2020Fabulous seafood (lobster roll and cheesecake), great ambiance, great cocktails
Meg FarmerAugust 22, 2016Great for an oyster happy hour and wine with friends. Some celeb spotting here too.
Kaitlin WilleNovember 11, 2013Salted caramel bread pudding with salted caramel ice cream is orgasmic! 7-7-7-7!!
Dress for the DateJanuary 13, 2014The side dish of Kale, Hazelnuts and Greek Yogurt is tremendous. Pair it with the Polenta side and wine for a memorable and complete meal.
Think we tried almost all oyster they offered today. Good Bloody Mary.
Yevgeniy SkazovskiAugust 16, 2014Everything is incredible, but 20 choices of oysters is why I keep coming back.
Chris PattonJuly 22, 2013Great seafood.... But also had the best chicken I've ever had. Yes, ever. Get it.
Bekki J. ChapmanJanuary 12, 2014The tuna poke just melts in your mouth. A good combination of textures, savory and salty.
