    Had some really great service from Jose on Friday celebrating the marriage of our friends. They have a great vibe there for a celebratory dinner or great date night. We had good cocktails and super yummy dessert. Food is good but not the best rib eye - with a coffee rub. The NY strip was very good with a perfect crust. The seafood platter was overpriced - oysters, shrimp and crudo. We would go back but probably for drinks and appetizers. For a fine dining place, I think their presentation could be better.

    David and Gale Slay is well know in their restaurants in the South Bay beach cities for their fine dinning. We ordered the Coffee rubbed rib eyesteaks, medium rare, but the steaks came out more of a medium and was a little tough to my preference and liking, but still delicious flavor. Located in Downtown Manhattan Beach which always loving the vibe of the area especially after a long work day because it's literally 5 minutes from my home. Street parking and small metered lot parking available nearby.

    Shrimp App

    I would definitely go back. But maybe to one of the sister restaurants Food - crab cake was ALL crab! No breadcrumbs - the shrimp app was just ok. The shrimps were nice and fat but the sauce was blend - the ribeye steak PERFECTLY cooked and the rub was delicious. I couldnt have asked for anything better - my mom thoroughly enjoyed the branzino. She ate it ALL! - my brother had the rack of lamb and had no complaints Service - our waiter was a male and Im so mad I didn't get his name - he was pleasant and very accommodating! - he knew the menu inside out as my mom asked what could she have as a person that didn't eat dairy and our waiter was able to call off several items without taking a look at the menu Ambiance - cozy - clean - dim lighting

    This restaurant was on my list to try and I finally tried it and it was lovely. They had amazing unique entrees, drinks, and desserts. The service was remarkable. Paulo, our waiter was so kind, personable, funny, accommodating, and caring, and made sure our first time was enjoyable. Great atmosphere with nice modern decor. We had the warm salad, Caesar salad, butter rolls, stuffed pork chop, chicken Parmesan, banana nut bread with peaches, and several cocktail drinks. Their coffee martini was delicious. The manager was very nice too. They serve a twisted baked potato but I don't like cheese so she had the cooks make my baked potato normal without the other ingredients. The bartender was friendly and made sure our drinks were delightful. Note: Around the corner from the restaurant is the Manhattan Pier and beach. Indoor and outdoor seating. They are only open for four hours daily (5pm-9pm) and have several different sister restaurants within walking distance from each other. Parking can be challenging but they have parking structures and parking on the street.

    Caesar salad

    Absolutely 5 stars around!! This has been in my bookmark for quite sometime so I tried it and it was BOMB!! I love the atmosphere in Manhattan Beach so I had no complaints with the ambience. It was cute inside and a nice outing! I had the Chicken Parmesan for my entree, Caesar salad which was all phenomenal one of the best dish of chicken Parmesan I had in a while!! I highly recommend this option for your entree and the Caesar as a starter!!! My drinks were very good and tasty! The bartender was marvelous! Made me the best expresso martini and Hennessy sidecar ! No error with the ingredients at all!! So for the customer service! Everyone was attentive and very nice! The manager was accommodating with my sister order, and Paulo our server was so chill and down to earth! They have 4 other sister restaurant within the same block! I definitely want to try the rest after SLAY being so delicious! I highly recommend here and I will be back here ! They have plenty of street parking, but it does get busy! -Marshay

    Quaint spot with beautiful decor. Little details in everything like the pseudo set up of glassware with "S" or "Slay". Menu is the perfect size that captures something for everyone. The service was on point - wait time, spacing between food, and details of specials. I would come back for another date night. It's a cozy and lovely spot to dine.

    Slay Steak & Fish is more than a meal; it's an experience. One that marries culinary mastery with sophisticated design. The menu is a testament to the Slays dedication to excellence. Each plate arrives impeccably presented, a feast for both the palate and the eyes. Complementing the cuisine is a team that is a perfect balance of professionalism and kindness offering insightful recommendations & ensuring every need was met. Our time here left us feeling genuinely cared for throughout the meal. Impeccable service, world-class food, and stunning surroundings come together to create a dining experience you won't soon forget. 5/5

    Crab Rangoon
    Marisa S.

    Finally got to try this place. Definitely lived up to the hype. It's a beautiful dining room that is elegant yet comfortable. The service matched. We were well taken care of but were able to chat with our waiter. The food was amazing. I recommend everything we tried: tiramisu martini, watermelon margarita, crab Rangoon, grilled artichoke, sole, and the incredible coffee rub ribeye...

    Melissa V.

    The food was good, my fiancé enjoyed his steak & my favorite was the daily special (Swedish meatball). Our server was great, very attentive & helpful. Overall the ambiance is cute, definitely worth a date night.

    This was an awesome impromptu birthday dinner find! We savored every bite of every item we ordered. The charred shrimp, satori oysters, red snapper and dover sole were all so delicious! I am very picky with my fish and this simply one of the best. The service was excellent and we are definitely going back to try additional menu items!

    Overall, we had a nice birthday dinner at this restaurant. The restaurant itself is very cute and cozy, they also have outdoor seating. Inside has a very Manhattan beach-like decor. Strangely they were playing music from the '60s '70s and '80s.. maybe was trying to give the beach town vibe. The menu itself is quite extensive. We went for the sea bass special, the chicken parmesan, The fish cake and the filet mignon tip appetizers. All were quite good, with the filet mignon tip appetizers being a nice and delicious surprise. Service was decent. The reasons for not giving a full five stars are the very high prices for the wine glass options and the beer options. Frankly, they are overpriced by $4 to $7. Also, the staff... Including the manager knew it was my birthday and did nothing special for it. Earlier in the morning I ate at a local breakfast spot and the owner came over and gave me a free scone. So if you're coming here, expecting to celebrate a special occasion, come with no expectations.

    Main course

    Both food and service is excellent. Steak is impressive. Definitely will visit again or introduce my friends.

The Tempura Salmon Bites were a highlight, literally melting in our mouths. For mains, the Chilean Sea Bass was near perfect, though the coconut flavor wasn't quite for me. The Wood Grilled Branzino felt like a work in progress; the fish, broccolini, and sauce were great, but the fennel and chickpeas felt out of place. It definitely needed a starch, so I ended up borrowing some smashed potatoes from the sea bass dish to round it out. The Fishbar Margarita was fresh but a bit bland, while the Tropical Mirage had better flavor (though it's rum-heavy). We wrapped things up with the Banana Bread Pudding, which was a delicious end to the meal.

    I've lived close by for years and I gotta say, after coming to Quality Seafood twice (once in Nov…read more '25 and in March '26), I will definitely stop taking this South Bay gem for granted. I've only had the pleasure of having the following items below, but I'll be back in the coming years to try more. - Calamari [7.7/10]: regardless of what size you order, the portion is generous. This place doesn't overdue it with the batter and lets the flavor the fresh squid shine - which I adore. Only giving this dish its rating because there are a few Italian spots in Torrance that have my heart when it comes to the best calamari. - Fish Tacos [8.5/10]: Every bite gives a nice crunch of both batter and fish. I've had unpleasant experiences where I've had pockets of crispy batter, here the fish tacos are so great it actually doesn't need much support from lemon and/or tartar sauce. Be sure to order a couple of these bad boys during happy hour for $5 each. - Clam Chowder [8.3/10]: This place hits the mark on the texture of a classic chowder. Admittedly my cup could have used a touch of salt. I would have liked a bigger portion for what I paid for, but if you're in the mood for something hot to compliment your fried seafood - this is worth getting. This is also featured on the happy hour menu for $5 - Garlic Fries [10/10]: My favorite bite from this place so far. Not on the happy hour menu, but 100% worth getting and eating with your fish, shrimp, crab, lobster, etc. Perfect amount of seasoning and that white wet sauce on top is so so so addicting. The unsung hero of my most recent visit was Jose over at Station 20. In addition to taking my order, he single handedly called out orders for everyone by the dining the area during the end of happy hour rush. A whole wave of customers came in less than 10 mins I placed my order so I can only imagine how overwhelming things were on the service side of things. For my most recent visit, most of my order came in and my garlic fries came in last. I could tell there was a mix up in the kitchen, but Jose apologized and said a new order would be ready for me in less than 5. Definitely worth the delay/wait imo. Food is great. Seating is limited. Customer service is superb. But once you fish your food, you gotta take a long walk along the pier. It's a wonderful way to rejuvenate and make sure the quality seafood digests well. Can't wait to explore more of the menu, including the happy hour drinks.

    I've been coming to Quality Seafood for the past couple of years, usually on Fridays for fish…read moretacos, and I've ordered the same fish taco and shrimp taco combination 40 to 50 times. It has generally been a place I've enjoyed and recommended, which is why this stood out. There's always been some normal inconsistency in portion. Some days the fish is bigger, some days smaller. Same with the shrimp, sometimes a little more, sometimes a little less. That never bothered me. It's part of a busy seafood counter, and I've never felt the need to say anything. What I got today was different. The fish taco was on the small side and dry, but the shrimp taco was the issue. It was served fried, very dark, and overcooked to the point the shrimp was tough. When I opened it after a few bites, I realized I was mostly eating tortilla and toppings. There were only about three shrimp total, which is noticeably less than what I've consistently received here before. In prior visits, I've also been asked whether I want my tacos grilled or fried, including the shrimp, and I've consistently chosen the lighter, non-fried option. What I received today was not that. I approached the counter politely and simply said the taco wasn't good, pointing out the quality and portion issue. I wasn't trying to make a scene and I'm not someone who returns food, especially over something this small. I was more pointing it out so it didn't keep happening. I was told nothing could be refunded because I had taken a few bites, so I asked to speak with a manager. That's where this went sideways. Instead of listening, the manager immediately dismissed it. She repeatedly told me that what I described was "not possible," insisted they have never prepared shrimp any differently in her 27 years there, and said they only ever serve three shrimp. As someone who has ordered this exact item many times, I was essentially being told that my own experience did not happen. The conversation ended with me being asked to leave. I've worked in and managed restaurants. Mistakes and inconsistencies happen. This was a simple situation that could have been handled in seconds, either by replacing the taco or offering a refund. Instead, it was denied outright and escalated. This wasn't about a $5 taco. It was about how it was handled. Being told that your repeated experience is "not possible" and then being asked to leave is not an acceptable way to handle a reasonable concern.
