I have to say, the location of it is a great concept. The inside is truly amazing. The clam chowder isn't what you expect, and it makes sense because you can have it on your burger. It's almost a cheesy clam chowder. Sort of hard to explain. Everything was super tasty, and for me, it was a lot of food for the price, where I had a whole meal the next day. Definitely recommend checking it out, even for just drinks, to sit outside, or for food. I was truly amazed by the decor of the place. The skills in the fireplace you just might miss if you don't take a look at it. Make sure you take the time and look at all the unique items around the restaurant. There is so many hidden little things inside and out.

Mariscos Rosarito has been a favorite of my family's for years. When I was younger, my mom would…read morealways stop by after work to pick up their shrimp cocktail, so it's a nostalgic spot for me. Every summer I start craving seafood, and I'm so lucky this place is so close to home! This time we got the shrimp ceviche, octopus ceviche, and aguachiles. They were able to make the aguachiles a little milder for us. It was spicy, but in the best way. Everything was fresh, flavorful, and definitely hit the spot!

Mariscos Rosarito - a casual Mexican seafood restaurant/deli that serves up delicious ceviches and…read morecocktails. It was located on our way back from Palos Verdes to Long Beach, so stopped in to check it out. It is located in a small strip mall with limited parking, so my wife waited with the car running while I ran in. The first thing one notices is the deli selection of refrigerated ceviches. It is similar to what one can get at the deli section of a Mexican supermarket, including being able to order by the pound. One can get in/out quickly if one just orders what is available in the deli counter. There is also a decent size dining room, where one can order and eat the standard mariscos dishes that the area is well known for. They do accept credit card, and one pound of ceviche de pulpo and half pound of ceviche de camaron cost under $20. It came with 3 orders of tostadas, limes, and hot sauce (thinking half a pound is considered a serving so my order was meant for 3 people). It was packaged well for easy carry out. Brought it home, and it was delicious. The thing I most appreciated was the value: how much seafood was in the serving. Octopus has gotten really expensive, and the amount of meat they gave (vs mostly the vegetables and liquid that the Mexican supermarkets seem to give now) was very generous. This included the shrimp ceviche as well. Both used the lime vegetable ceviche mix that tastes pretty similar to others that I have had. It's always a pleasure to find a new place that serves your favorite dishes but with more value AND is close enough to stop-in without driving too far. Mariscos Rosarito is that place for me now, and I look forward to trying more of their dishes in the future.

San Pedro Fish Market…read more First of all, the ambience is very, very cool! The outdoor seating has a relaxed picnic-table feel, and dining right next to the water makes the whole experience incredibly relaxing. Ordering from your mobile device is easy, and our food was delivered fresh and hot right to the table. The service was impeccable. The staff was super friendly, helpful, and genuinely welcoming. Now, the food!!! I ordered the shrimp tacos with chips, and honestly, two tacos were more than enough to fill me up. The ingredients tasted fresh, and the combination of flavors was absolutely addicting. Every bite was packed with flavor. My wife ordered the shrimp tray, and she was very satisfied with her meal as well. Great food, great atmosphere, friendly people, and that waterfront setting really makes this place special. I'm definitely coming back!

This fish market only sells cooked prepared food. No fresh fish available. I heard that they used…read moreto offer fresh fish for sale here. Fishermen used to offload their catch here. We came here for lunch for the first time. There are two separate areas for you to place your order. One area to order food; another area to order alcoholic beverages. The seating area is huge. It is all outdoors. The entire area is covered with various sun shades. Even with sunshades, it is still hot and sunny in the seating area. They are all picnic style tables and chairs (benches). It is not the most comfortable seating. First you must decide where to sit. Remember your table number before going up to place your order. We ordered the following: (1) Fish and Chips (French fries): (3/5 stars). You have a choice of fried white fish, fried calamari or fried shrimps. This entree comes with fries and cole slaw. I had the fried white fish. The fish was fresh and cooked just right, not too much batter (which I liked). But it lacks flavor. It could use some salt. I had to dip it in lots of tartar sauce to give it flavor. They should have served this dish with some fresh lemon slices but none came with my dish. (2) Fish Burrito. (3/5 stars). You have a choice of grilled or fried fish. I ordered it with grilled fish. This burrito was wrapped with fish and potatoes. It tasted okay. (3) Fish Tacos (4/5stars). These are soft tacos with corn tortillas. Two tacos came in this order. It is served with pico de gallo and hot sauce. The order came with chips and salsa. It tasted pretty good. This is the best dish out of the three we had today. Overall the food was average. The prices are on the high side especially for outdoor picnic tables style seating.

What a fantastic experience tonight!!!…read more We came on a pretty busy Saturday night with a last minute reservation. We were sat in front of the raw bar. What a treat!!! The raw bar seats might be best in the house. The raw bar seats are the ambiance you want here, right in the middle of the action. (Notably, not your choice for a business meal) Chef's touch. Its an odd thing to say, but the croquettas with the wagyu flat iron steak were straight from Cuba. Serious food, amazing eats. Best Ive had since Musni. Steak was cooked well, smoke flavor greatly appreciated! Id like a little more crust and a touch of salt, but thats my own slight preference which I can communicate at my next order... honestly 10/10 on steak. Peruvian sea scallops and oysters were perfect. Enough said. Just get the scallops and oysters. Order too much, its worth it. Service: Front of house beat back of house tonight. We were not rushed. We could take our time ordering courses and the pacing was customized. Our server asked and seemed to care. Big tip for front of house tonight. Hopefully we have a staple restaurant. Thank you Trani's!!

Trani's Dockside Station is probably my favorite restaurant in San Pedro and on the east side of…read morePalos Verdes. I always consider a meal here a treat. The atmosphere is a big part of the appeal. It feels like an ode to the San Pedro harbor and the area's history, with cool artifacts and details throughout. They also often have live acoustic music, which I really enjoy. One small downside: it can get loud when busy, so with a larger group it's sometimes hard to talk across the table. Last night they absolutely nailed the food, as usual and the restaurant was not too loud. We started with Harpo's Garlic Bread, the Squash Blossoms, and the Local Calamari "New Style," all excellent starters. For mains, the Tomahawk Pork Chop was juicy and well prepared, the Sausage Cavatelli was hearty and flavorful, the Chicken Parmesan was crispy, cheesy and satisfying, and the Swordfish Milanese was a really nice preparation. The Hand Cut Fries, Baby Romaine Salad, and BLT Salad rounded everything out nicely. One tip: if you know you want wine, consider bringing a good bottle. Corkage is $25 per bottle, which can make a lot of sense. Our server, Noe D., did a very nice job. I was especially impressed with our table assistant, Kevin A., friendly, attentive, and genuinely enjoyable to interact with. I also had the chance to meet Edgar on the management side, who was new to me. Thanks to the Dockside team for another great night. Great food, real San Pedro character, live music, and people who make you feel welcome.

Our server was so sweet and welcoming. She walked us through the options and made recommendations based on our party. For a party of 3, we ordered one pound of shrimp, one pound of snow crab, and half pound of clams. The staff recommended mixing their sauces and it definitely hit the spot. The seafood was fresh and meaty and the garlicky, spicy sauce kicked the flavor up a notch. We also ordered a side of fries to share and the dip it came with was amazing as well. The price is very reasonable! It was definitely bang for your buck. They have happy hours that span a good chunk of the day so definitely take advantage of that. Will definitely be back to support a local small business.

Seating is limited to 2 benches and a wall counter. Place is small BUT cozy…read more I ordered their Cajun Bag ($37), comes with 1lb of shrimp, 4 sausages, 6 mussels, 4 potatoes and 2 corn. I added 5 more sausages ($1/each), 2 more muscles ($1/each), 1lb of shrimp ($14 extra), and a soda can ($2)... $64 after taxes. Food arrives and we're given a pair of cafeteria lady plastic gloves, 2 of the thinnest papper plates imaginable and about 7 napkins. Theres no covers on the bench so I slice our bag open to where we can grab the food but not spill out on the table. Food gymnastics! When we finish eating we ask for wet naps to clean our hands and they dont have any, restroom? Nope, no public restroom. Were told we can come into the kitchen and wash our hands of we like.... thanks but no thanks. Thr girl still the register was super friendly though, so she got them an extra star in my review. The food: I dont know if im spoiled by other places, but it could also be that this isnt specifically a sea food boil place. Its a Asian fusion location with an option of a seafood boil bag, but i come to expect a bit more out of the sauce option. Like the sauce that was in the bag was just enough to coat the food and that's it. I seen like a couple sliced garlic pieces but really? Like 6 or 7 slices? Then the sausages.... theyre store bought hilshire farms sausages... and to charge $1 A SLICE IS DIABOLICAL! The clams were chewy, the shrimp was mushy... im forever now gonna take that 30 minte drive to anywhere for seafood boil. I really wanted to like this place, I really did... but im sorry, I just cant do a boil from here again.

A flavorful fusion of Cajun and Cambodian food that feels like a home cooked meal!…read more The grilled beef sticks were the highlight for me, the meat was juicy and had a strong lemongrass flavor. The pickled daikon and carrots also cut through the richness of the meat. We also got the spicy Cajun bag, which had a good amount of seafood and was easily splittable between two people. The seafood tasted fresh, and the sauce was very flavorful! The Thai tea was also creamy and refreshing, perfect for fighting the heat of the seafood. There is no bathroom, but the staff was also super nice and let us wash our hands in the sink behind the register. The spot is pretty small, with a few tables inside. The food was so good that I was surprised it wasn't busy at all, it definitely deserves more business!

Also the Mahi Mahi and grilled shrimp plate with rice. Absolutely delicious. And the dungeness crab. Yum! Also if you want a hammer for the crab, it's a $2 deposit. They refund you after you return it. Obviously had to get the clam chowder in a bread bowl. Absolutely worth it. All of this cost $130. Mostly cuz of the crab at 29.99/lb. Bread bowls were $16 (we ordered 2) And the plates were less than $25 each. Plenty of seating around.

I believe it to be overpriced especially when they don't have any transportation cost and the fish is right there and then every morning. It is their advantage at the same time cause you don't know how fresh the fish is anywhere else so that's why 3 stars. Ambience is overlooking the port. Can get a little chilly so you should bring a coat with you or a blanket. They do have inside sitting as well in a building right next to the patio so just ask them to show it to you. They have a big private venue getting fixed right now so you can celebrate big weddings and events there. They did give us recommendations on the fish but nothing other than that. You choose, you pay, you take your food, you throw your plate away. Nobody will come and check on you. If you are looking for a fresh fish - perfect spot. If you are looking for anything else - there are better spots out there
