Best Fine Dining Restaurants in Manhattan Beach

My husband and I were in town to celebrate our wedding anniversary and came across Eddie V’s on OpenTable while looking for a restaurant to celebrate. The experience was amazing from start to finish! We were quickly greeted at valet and they had our table decorated with rose petals and a card. We had the crab cake appetizer and sea bass with mashed potatoes for our meal. They topped of our evening with a small shareable banana foster, sherbet, and powdered sugar covered brownies. Our waitress Jasmine was very attentive. Definitely a 10 experience.

A must try if you're in manhattan beach! The food was great, but the service was incredible. Our server Jason Balasbas was so attentive and courteous. His recommendations made all the difference in making dinner exceptional. I highly recommend.

I've been meaning to come to this restaurant since it opened a couple of decades ago. The big surprise was the view. Where you expect to be looking out to open water you instead look across a large concrete expanse of the horseshoe pier. There are water views of the inside area of that pier. The other surprise is how large the restaurant is. There was a birthday party of 20 when we were there and the place didn't seem full at all. Service was relaxed, friendly and attentive. The prices are average for high end seafood and steaks. They do have a $49 prix fixe that one of our group ordered and very much liked. Both the clam chowder and lobster bisque were superb, as was the salmon. And excellent complimentary hot bread, a rarity these days. As we were celebrating two birthdays, 2 complimentary creme brulees showed up at the end. All in all, a very pleasant experience.

My experience was great. I always have an amazing time.
