My sister and I enjoyed our dinner. We sat on the patio. Was a little chilly with jacket and sweater near the heater. Food was yummy. Our waiter made excellent suggestions and gave wonderful service. We will definitely make the trip again from Ventura County in the summer time. Thank you for a pleasant evening of delicious seafood.

Went here for brunch with my guy friends and had an absolute great time. We went for the Saturday brunch experience and had a reservation for 11:30am. The hostess was a little late opening up; but got us checked in and seated promptly when they did arrive. Our server was Victoria and her partner in crime Johnny. She set us up and gave us the full rundown of how everything works: from the omelette, crepe stations, to the buffet room and the way she could split the check at the end. She was amazing and kept our drinks flowing. The drinks can be a little pricy (I had the ooh LaLa (a watermelon margarita with a tajin rim) for about $18 per but it was pretty and delicious)They had a live DJ who was setting the vibe and and great taste and transitions. We had a congo line with some of the other patrons in the building. There was 8 of us and it didn’t feel like we were ever in limbo or waiting. It all flowed well and we could all split the check evenly and it was about $135 pp. I will definitely be back!

Our server was very attentive. Food was reasonably priced and tasty. I had the fish and chips and I was worried that the batter was going to be too much, but it was not and it was perfectly battered. My husband had the jalapeño burger and he said that it was delicious. Our aunt had the fish tacos and they looked good too. Overall, I highly recommend if you’re trying to find a place to dine on the Santa Monica Pier. Sit on the 2nd floor outside so you can have a good view of the ocean and also people watch.

Our very favorite fish and chips in all of LA. Succulent big pieces with crispy beer batter. Love the desserts as well. Only time we stray away from our usual King order of fish and chips is when we have out of town guests and we’ll order up some bangers and mash to have a variety.

Staff this Sunday was lovely. Our waitress & the hostess were way more pleasant than others I’ve encountered at the Waterfront before. I chose the buffet because it used to be really versatile but understand they’ve scaled back after the fires and not getting as much traffic on the boardwalk at this time. I think the $40 AYCE could go down some of the omelette station & prime rib is no longer there
