Nick's Manhattan Beach

Really nice spot with great vibes — the atmosphere alone makes it worth the visit. Service is impeccable, almost a bit too attentive at times, but always friendly and professional. There is an outdoor patio too, which seemed heated. We ordered a few drinks and they tasted great, though they were a little on the lighter side. Definitely try the margarita. We also shared the artichoke dip, which was really good and a perfect appetizer. Parking is easy if you use the public underground lot nearby — about $2.50 per hour until 9 PM, and free after that, which is a big plus in this area.

Nick’s Restaurant in Manhattan Beach truly impressed us. I ordered the pork ribs and was honestly shocked by how good they were—perfectly tender, flavorful, and cooked to perfection. My husband had the filet mignon, which was just as amazing: juicy, rich, and beautifully prepared. We also tried the crispy rice with spicy tuna, and it was the perfect starter—crispy, fresh, and packed with flavor. The quality of the food and the overall experience made this visit unforgettable. Definitely a spot we’ll be coming back to.

Nice ambiance. Good service. Delicious food and not overly priced. Decent size portion. Simple menu. Most of the dishes we ordered were all good except for thai salad. Butter cake was nice and warm: one of the best I've had in a while. Complimentary birthday cake. Highly recommend this place.

Let me begin by letting g you know that our server, Vanessa, was the best! She made several recommendations, and they were spot-on! One plate was a center-cut filet, and it was cooked to perfection, medium. The anchor order was the salmon, and it was terrific; the presentation and flavor were unbelievable, and it was very tender. Our server then suggested the butter cake, and with an espresso, it was the best! Thank you, Vanessa, for a fantastic experience, and your management should note that the front line is what made this establishment so good! We will definitely be back and highly recommend the restaurant to everyone.

I had a great time here. Welcoming servers and great food. Our server John was amazing. He took good care of us and we are coming back because of him also. The manager Destiny checked on us! Make sure to check this place out and get the butter cake at the end…it’s so worth it. My dinner was sushi and pan-seared salmon, Chardonnay to top It off. Wow good food!! The ambiance made it better!
