Fishing With Dynamite

Food is amazing and I am a picky seafood eater. Excellent oysters, very tasty (rather small) lobster roll, crispy chips, tasty lime pie. Very nice design (there are also seats outside), 1 minute away from the ocean. Music, positive vibes. High end in terms of price but good.👍

Really good. It's very small and the vibe makes it really cozy and feels like a small East coast beach-side raw bar. The service was very good. All stars there. I think they do a good job of controlling the acidity of their dishes and they have interesting takes on all the old standbys. It definitely borders on michelin-star bait in terms of their choices, but I wouldn't be too worried about their lack of recognition, their offering is already priced as if they have one. Things we liked: the key lime pie. Standout of the meal. The French fries, the clam chowder and the octopus. Not as much: i think some of the stuff on the menu is overpoweringly one note especially for the price. When you're buying what is essentially $40 congee, it would be nice to have something else there to break

Where do I even begin?! Everything was exceptional beginning to end. My husband and I were visiting from Houston and wanted to celebrate our wedding anniversary in a special way. Mission accomplished! The food is superb and the staff is what you hope for in any dining experience. Bryce greeted us with a smile. Shelby provided a detailed breakdown of the menu and checked in with us frequently during our stay. Sebastian is an absolute delight and made our anniversary beyond memorable! Everyone was so kind which warranted hugs from us upon leaving. Every course was the best ever, and we know food. Lol The flavor profiles are on point and the seafood could not be any fresher. If you are a foodie looking for the meal of a lifetime, please visit. Very important - please make a reservation to ens

Fantastic seafood in a great location. The oyster and French fry combo was excellent, as was the hamachi sashimi. Good cocktail selection. Interior of the restaurant is very small and it can get a bit loud.

FWD was everything I hoped for! Reminded me of a local joint in Cornelius, Seaboy, with the counter/kitchen seating and tightly packed space, lots of energy, and a clear passion for seafood. Everything was fresh, delicious & creative, including the cocktails! Would highly recommend it to anyone in the Manhattan Beach area. Go get “blown away“!
