Their service was friendly , server, Stephanie was patient as their coffee was too strong while my hubby kept asking for extra almond milk. I love their mimosa flights and their french toast... their tots are great as well - looked baked and not oily.

This place stands out in a neighborhood where everything has more or less the same look. It feels more like an island cafe . The food is refreshing and good. The strawberry iced tea is so delicious - it's like a mocktail, but begs for a jigger of tequila or vodka. By itself, though, it's just perfect. I had the Cobb salad and my husband had the Asian chicken salad, and both were huge servings - definitely dinner-sized portions. The service was unremarkable, Jessica was so sweet, friendly, and just awesome and accommodating . The place itself is the real highlight - it's like you're dining in a cafe in Maui surrounded by orchids and plants, with a water feature that makes you want to stay and forget the world outside, even the beach that's just footsteps outside

To start off, I got the Spicy Tuna Bites, and they were good! You could actually taste the spice which I loved ! it's definitely flavorful. The lemonade was also really good and refreshing on such a hot day ! My only letdown was the Mahi Tacos, which were unfortunately quite dry and weren't my favorite. Despite the tacos, the rest of the menu looks amazing. I definitely want to come back to try some of their flights and their famous shakes! Not to mention I loved the aesthetic of the place, it was very pretty. And Tomas was super nice !

It was hard to find parking around here on a Saturday night. We ended up parking 2 blocks away and walking over. For a party of 2, we were seated immediately but took one of the last tables available. We had to sit outside but inside was pretty lively. It was very artsy and there was even live music. I ordered a chocolate shake, the famous zucchini sticks, and truffle kimchi fried rice. On a side note, I like how the breakfast menu is available until 2PM. The food took a bit over 10 minutes to arrive. The zucchini was delicious and pairs well with the ranch. It was lightly battered, melts in the mouth, and perfect. The fried rice came on a hot plate and it was really good too. The cheese, green onion, and kimchi work really well together. The bulgogi in the rice was also very good. The milkshake was really thick and my only complaint is that my compostable straw broke. Overall this is a really fun dinner spot.

Just off of highland you'll see the cutest little quaint resturant nestled in between another breakfast spot and other businesses. On the outside it looks like any other hole in the wall. No line awaiting to get in and on this hot sunny day surprisingly not anyone dining outside. Once you enter the doors your awestruck and greeted to a whimsical floral oasis, unique seating an abundance of orchids and a dreamy escape. The breakfast join on the outside was like stepping through the doors and entering another world. Speaking of "stepping" in, as a disabled traveler/ diner who switches between her cane and wheelchair i am sorry my chair friends your best option is to dined outdoors and hope you do not have to use the restroom as the place may be ADA friendly for some it is not truly handicap accessible as it is fairly narrow inside limiting the room to freely and comfortably move around on your own. Due to the unique nature with seating arrangements inside getting a table that works best indoors is not truly easy. The pathway to the restroom very narrow and although the restroom is fully handicap accessible please note the establishment itself is dated and was not built with us in mind. The day we dined i did have my cane and only needed to clear one step which was no issue given it was a good day. My struggle came with the pillows sliding in my chair that were for added comfort and that was all. When it came to the food , menu selection and the service 5 stars across the board maybe even more. Your senses and taste buds seemed to react to the menu as one glanced over. The breakfast choices sounded absolutely delicious. For generic items the combinations of fresh ingredients and seasonings made your mouth water with anticipation. The handheld section trapped me. I sat and contemplated should I do a burger, sandwich or a wrap. I have to look for options that tend to be MS friendly and there were so many options however although medically necessary I Hate having to pay extra for substitutions such as a gluten free bun $2.50 but knowing the brioche bun would not trigger a major reaction i opted for the Black and Blue burger medium well and upgraded to truffle fries. The burger was incredible in size. As the plate was placed in front of ne I was nearly salivating because the aroma of caramelized onions greated you first with a mixture of garlic and cajun spice. One bite and the taste buds hummed in satisfaction. The Angus beef patty cooled to perfection so juicy and thick cut. The taste box blue cheese crumble garlic aioli, caramelized onions and lettuce all in one bite had me devouring this burger. The truffle fries were not salty and flavored to perfection. When it came to the Mimosa flight it was not only aesthetically pleasing to look at, it was truly jam packed with unique flavors. My favorite in line was the Mango drago fruit first. Very light and fruity with the perfect amount of sweet to tangy flavor. Pair perfectly with the entire menu. The blue curacao elderflower was a unique and refreshing taste . Not as sweet but gave you a tropical earthy vibe not to over powering but just enough to linger on your tongue. In third was the lavender honey. Very floral and a fresh palette changer. A perfect after meal cocktail to wine down with. The lavender flavor was very floral and delicious. Comparable to rose water so if you dont like floral stay away from this one. They also offer coffee and tea flights while you dine. My overall verdict 4.5/5 service was phenomenal food delicious cocktails tasty. I will be back and a frequent traveler I just dont feel to the demographic I write for it is necessarily a great spot for those who use larger mobility aides as its not handicapped friendly but? If you dont mind dining outside give this place a try. I've lived here my entire life and can't believe how I never visited a resturant that would transport tou the momemt you stepped inside.

We popped in on a late afternoon/ early evening Saturday to no wait and a fairly empty place. It looks like a green house with all the plants and has an outdoor feel to it. Service was friendly and the food was decent. I think breakfast may be better, best on other reviews. But this served our purpose after a nice bike ride. The shakes were also extremely tasty!

The service was amazing! The owner came in to care for the orchids, as it was at closing time and he is incredibly friendly. I had the coffee flight...sooooo beautiful! I would love it even more with espresso instead, but it was still good. And the truffle fries were to die for. But the ambiance is the most incredible part of the whole place...it's absolutely magical.

Lloyd M.

Excellent place! Jessica was our server and really was A1. We had the Chinese chicken salad and the Cobb salad. Our favorite part was the strawberry lemonade!!

The food was good I recommend the spicy tuna and the Avocado Bacon Burger! Besides that service was amazing! Amber was our server the absolute most amazing and attentive server ever! Not only was she sweet and kind to customers but to her colleagues as well! Would go back for the amazing chai latte and Ambers sweet service!

This is such an amazing little hole in the wall place. The staff were super nice, the ambiance was amazing. There is a fireplace, and lots of greenery to make it super comfortable and relaxing. Food was wonderful

Service was great, but the food took over 45 minutes and wasn't even good. Ordered a "Lobster Eggs Benedict" and I ended up getting regular eggs benedict with a lobster tail on the side ‍ I guess I could've gone out of my way to verify but lobster eggs Benedict's are pretty standard so I assumed it would be correctly labeled on the menu. And unfortunately the regular eggs benedict wasn't even good It was salty AF and they cheaped out and put two poached eggs on one piece of toast instead of using English muffins. I'd say it's a nice place to chill, nice a ambience, but don't expect great food read more

Sloopy's completely updated their restaurant! Food is upscale and trendy in all good ways. House favorites are still on the menu, in addition to many other new dishes like the quinoa egg dish! I usually dine here for breakfast and lunch, but I am excited to come back to try their new dinner menu items. We started with the Zucchini Sticks and the Quinoa Amin Oeuf. The zucchini sticks were crispy and so delicious dipped in ranch. For our mains, we had the Mahi Tacos and Fish and Chips, which were so flavorful and beautifully plated on a wood board. It is so refreshing to see businesses enhance their menu to cater to their customers. It just shows how much passion and dedication this establishment has! read more

Sloopy's. Just the name alone has me smiling. Sloopy's Beach Cafe is just steps from the beautiful Manhattan Beach. Half of it is covered and half of it isn't so it's half outside technically. The cafe is small and cozy and they even have a fireplace near the corner smack dab in the middle of the tables. Unforunately, we had just missed breakfast so I decided on the Portobello Mushroom Burger. The picture does not do it's justice. The portobello mushrooms were so thick it was like they were grown on steroids. I was totally in shock at the site of these fat puppies. I couldn't even get my mouth around the burger because it was so thick. You get lettuce, tomato, and pesto mayo as your sauce. The tomato was so plump and juicy that it made the burger thoroughly refreshing. I also got a blueberry shake which was made super super thick that at times I found myself getting lightheaded from trying to drink it. Their were fresh blueberries mixed in the shake and they were frozen ice stiff from the cold temperatures of the shake. Sloopy's will be a regular spot for me whenever I'm in the area. It's in a very convenient area and you shouldn't have a problem finding a parking spot on the street. read more

It's fun eating here. There is a cute little fireplace and a chair that looks like a wagon in the front.

After a tiring and humbling workout at the Manhattan Beach Sand Dunes, we ate a very nice breakfast at Sloopy's. We first tried to eat next door, but the wait was too long, so we ate at Sloopy's. I had the fresh strawberry pancakes ($7.25) and it was delicious. It also comes with fresh fruit and I was very happy eating the pancakes after my workout. The service was efficient and quick. I would eat here again if I'm in the area. I posted a few pictures of my dish and a few of my friends'. Cheers! read more

Ahi Captain! Hoist the sails and get ready for an epic adventure in Seafood. The Seared Ahi burger is an amazing sandwich not for the faint of heart. It is massive and will definitely satiate your animalistic appetite. The interior patio is a nice change, in that it is still open air, so patrons can get the feel of dining inside, while abiding by COVID Protocols. It also looks like your in a tree house which is equally amazing. The staff are very friendly and attentive. Definitely add this place for your next stop in Manhattan Beach. read more

I had french toast, crispy bacon ( eventually after it was returned to the kitchen) and scrambled eggs that were inedible . we left most of our food on the plate but no-one asked why and i guess they didn't want to know Fair to say other diners seemed happy with their food and perhaps we just made the wrong choices on the day ...however will never return read more

I met friend here for dinner after reading my foodie friend's reviews. Sloopy's looks like a new restaurant after a recent remodel. I love the decor. Lots of warm wood and a large variety of plants. When you are inside it feels like you are eating in friend's backyard. I ordered the mahi mahi tacos and a side of zucchini sticks. The tacos were excellent. Everything was fresh and delicious. The zucchini sticks were huge and they give you a very generous helping. It's best if you have a friend or two to share these with. The wait staff was attentive and friendly. Overall the environment is warm and cozy while the food is fresh and modern. I'll be back soon. read more

It was really disappointing having to leave this review but I think when you have a poor experience it also needs to be shared. As a local business I wanted to support another business for a large lunch order. It was disappointing when 11 out of the 15 meals ordered were not good quality. After speaking with the owner and sharing the experience the response was less than satisfactory customer service. To deflect, place blame on others and not come to an amicable accommodation is bizarre to me. If this to go order was an insight on how service and food would have been in person I can safely say they won't get my business again. read more

It was served with an exceptional set of fries, which had a great amount of garlic and the perfect blend of crisp on the outside and softness on the inside, along with tangy ketchup. The children got the pasta bolognese ($14), which was a standard bolognese, although the pasta was a little overcooked. We also got a child salmon ($21), a surprisingly generous piece of fish, well cooked with a somewhat crispy exterior and soft interior alongside broccolini and whipped mashed potatoes. The service was decent - our server collected our order, checked on us appropriately, and generally took care of us throughout our visit. As the pictures suggest, the interior is quite upscale, scattered across three floors with a view overlooking the main road and the beach itself.

Our server was very attentive, kind, patient, and accommodating. For example, when my sister in law asked if there was a kid's menu for her children, the server politely stated that they didn't have one. However, he immediately picked up on the fact that these kids were highly fussy and picky eaters, and offered up buttered noodles, something that was not on the menu. The kids ended up loving this. I, on the other hand, was disappointed with most of the food I had. If I had to rate the food, it would be 3 stars. I ordered the MB Post Burger, which comes with a 1/2 pound grilled patty, American Cheese, applewood bacon, and honey chipotle aioli, between English muffin buns. I added a sunny side up egg to it for an extra few bucks. The burger was messy, and difficult to eat. Ended up having to eat it with a fork and knife. I expected the egg to be a bit runny, but it was cooked all the way through. All in all, it wasn't enjoyable to eat. The crispy fries were not any better. To me, they tasted overly fried. The only thing I thought was exceptional was the bacon cheddar buttermilk biscuit with the whipped honey butter. It was buttery and crispy goodness. This item alone is worth coming back to this restaurant. Overall, this place is a solid 4 star restaurant. If you're planning on visiting this place, I have to warn you that parking may be a real pain to find since the area is very popular with beach goers. Things were exacerbated over the weekend due to a volleyball tournament. Had to drive around for like 30 minutes to find parking.

The spicy tuna crispy rice was so rich in flavor, and the crispy rice truly was crispy. The shrimp taquitos were unlike anything i've tried before!

The day of the reservation, the host manager called to confirm that we wanted to share the news at dessert, and if there were any other accommodations we needed, which was very sweet. When we arrived at our table, they had a card signed by staff congratulating us, and it was a night to remember. Great food, great service, and the warm hand towels after my dad demolished the baby back ribs were the cherry on top! Our group also ordered the chilean sea bass, salmon, and bistro plate. 10/10. One of our final meals as a family of two was Valentine's Day 2026. It was our first time being seated indoors, and the ambiance was dim and romantic. The meatloaf special was fantastic! Fast forward to June 2026, and we brought our 3-month-old son to his first NIck's meal (unfortunately, he could not partake) and to celebrate my husband's first Father's Day. On this reservation, I put in a request for outdoor seating that gave us enough room to park our stroller and car seat, and they were able to accommodate that. They were also understanding when me and my husband were running a few minutes past our reservation time due to fhe baby, and we appreciated the flexibility. Noise level was moderate, but definitely quieter outside. If you get nothing else from this review, just remember this: ORDER THE WARM BUTTER CAKE. YOU WILL NEVER REGRET IT. Thanks for the consistent hospitality and great meals, Nick's!

Owner is a LOSER. Usually, I don't waste my time doing a YELP. Who knows or who cares, right? So, we take an UBER from Newport Beach. We hear about this great little restaurant in Manhattan Beach from a friend of ours, who along with several others are meeting us there. A bunch of us were going to be meeting for a birthday at Tony P's in Marina del Rey in the evening (Great Restaurant). So I contacted a few people to meet us at Sloppy's. You guys really missed the boat. Our Bar tab down the street was a little over $1,100. This is before we went to the Marina. We walk into Sloopy's and it appeared to be charming, but empty. This was going to be great, since several people were meeting us there for a kind of prelim party and some serious catching up with each other. We purchased a Groupon for $22.00 (with promo code it was $17.50) to spend up to $40 on Breakfast or Brunch. When we arrive, Victoria told us that they don't do Brunch, and they know that the Groupon needs to be updated, but they just haven't taken the time to do it. I said that I don't want to be argumentative, but you are advertising it, and we did purchase it, is there something you can do for us, we came a long way. She said NO. Then Andrea walked up behind Victoria, and I mentioned the same, she said she'd call the owner. She called the owner, and the owner wasn't interested in our business. Both Andrea and Victoria were nice, but I feel they could have done more to keep our business. We left and started contacting our friends for a different place to meet. I feel bad for whoever would have waited on us; we tipped out at the other place for $235 (waitresses were very happy with us and bought us a round of drinks too) and then went onto the Marina. Oh, and we did get our money back from Groupon. Note to the Owner, don't be such a jerk! It looks like you could have used the business, your place was empty. Note to Victoria, you should not have been so quick to say NO. Andrea, thank you for making the call, and YOU'RE HOT! Note to others, I'm super disappointed, because it looked like such a nice place to spend the afternoon. I walked out hungry, thirsty and with a hole burning in my pocket to spend big on a beautiful Sunday. There is a lesson to be learned here! Hey, I'm also seeing here on YELP, they advertise Brunch. Get it together people. False advertisement and not wanting to adapt to please your potential customers, really weighs on me (and others). read more

I recently dined at Sloppy's Restaurant in Manhattan Beach, CA, and had an absolutely wonderful experience! From the moment I walked in, the atmosphere was vibrant and welcoming. The staff were incredibly friendly and attentive, making sure we felt right at home. The menu at Sloppy's offers a fantastic variety of dishes, catering to all tastes. I decided to try their signature sloppy steak, and it was delicious! The flavors were perfectly balanced, and the portion size was generous. My dining companions ordered a variety of items, including the burgers and salads, and everyone was thrilled with their choices. The ingredients were fresh, and everything was cooked to perfection. The ambiance of the restaurant is also worth mentioning. It's casual and laid-back, with a fun and lively vibe that perfectly matches the beach town feel of Manhattan Beach. The decor is quirky and charming, adding to the overall enjoyable experience. In addition to the great food and atmosphere, the service was top-notch. Our server was knowledgeable about the menu and provided excellent recommendations. The food arrived promptly, and we never felt rushed or neglected. Overall, Sloppy's Restaurant in Manhattan Beach exceeded my expectations. It's the perfect spot for a casual meal with friends or family, and I can't wait to return. Highly recommended! read more

Sloopy's is GREAT! The food is fresh, large portions, and a huge variety. I grew up eating here and although the prices have gone up (I read a few complaints about that), so has the quality. And let's be real people! Going out to a restaurant ANYWHERE is at least $20 per person...Sloopy's is not fast food! Everything is made fresh to order. The milkshakes are made with real ingredients and are MUST HAVE item. As far as the staff, there have been a couple employees that definitely don't fit in with the beautiful, laid back atmosphere. But, the staff seems to be changing and one of the best, most friendly servers my family and I have ever met, 'Chrissy' (who use to work there, years ago, and watched me grow up) is back! So, I know Sloopy's will be a great experience for any newcomers. read more

I just called to make a simple delivery order and the girl who answered the phone put me on hold for approx. 7 minutes, I hung up, called back and instead of putting me on hold this time, she just put the phone down for another 5 minutes before I hung up again. However, this time trying to call back doesn't work as their phone is now conveniently off the hook. If you're too busy to take a delivery order just say so vs being inconsiderate of anyone else's time. Perhaps consider hiring some extra help vs giving poor customer service. I won't be calling back ever, that was the last chance as so many other times I've sat outside waiting 10 minutes for someone to even come greet us! The food is ok, but in all honesty, it's not good enough to make up for the unsophisticated staff. read more

One of my favorite places in South Bay. It's always a 5 star for ambience. This visit unfortunately was not as good. The servers spent more time chatting with each other than tending to our table. We sat 15 minutes before being greeted and getting water. Then the same amount of time for the server to return and get our food order. She was pleasant enough but we all felt like our table was the forgotten table. The fries were sitting in a pool of oil and the California chicken sandwich was dry with burnt chicken. The chocolate raspberry shake was delicious. We have been coming to Sloopys for 20 years and it has always been great. I hope this was a one time occurrence and they are keeping up the standards we have experienced over the years . read more

Wow is all I can say. I recently visited Sloopys again with a friend and had an amazing brunch. They completely updated everything from the food to the plants in their beautiful garden. We started off with crispy brussel sprouts and breakfast potatoes as our appetizers. The brussel sprouts were cooked perfectly and came with this amazing sweet chili sauce that was to die for. As for the potatoes, they were nice and crispy and came with this delicious chipotle-like sauce. For our entree's I ordered the shrimp salad and my friend ordered the southbay cobb. My salad was absolutely amazing. It was super fresh and came with large sized shrimps. My friend really enjoyed his salad as well. Thanks for the great experience! Will be back :) read more

This place is terrible. After many years in the South Bay, I finally decided to go here with my wife. We ordered and waited... and waited... and waited. The place wasn't very busy. After 45 MINUTES, I overhear the waitress talking to the cooks behind the window about our food and find out they never even started on our food; somehow they never got the ticket for our table. This is pretty unacceptable in itself, but the waitress didn't even show any remorse when she told us this news. We told her to cancel the order and got the eff out. I'm never going back to this place and I hope by reading this, you will do the same. read more

Responding to Raul C. comment, as a past worker of Sloopy's I can confirm that it is in fact not true. The kitchen works extremely hard to keep the place clean and the food is made fresh every morning to provide the best quality to our customers. In fact, Raul was very inappropriate with the servers and baristas(me included) who are all UNDERAGE which is why I am not surprised he is trying to bash the place. I am happy the boss protected us as his workers and took action against this behavior before anything bad happened. I love sloopy's! The food is delicious and the work environment is great! read more

If you have never been there you have to go just to see how unique it is inside. A big tree, little birds, relaxed people. Food is very good but not amazing. If the place wasn't so cool, I would probably go much less frequently. But as it is, I bring out of town guests there all the time. (And to be honest, all my friends rave about the food so it's a pretty easy hit with a lot of people, so don't be timid :) read more

This is a neighborhood gem, a refuge when week-ends become busy in the summer. The food is not innovative, but you'll get what you expect, and in great quantity. Service is always great and the decor is one of a king (fireplace when the days are colder, lots of plants). Breakfast burrito is the bomb (you could order 1 for 2 people and be full). read more

Since I live in the El Porto side of Manhattan Beach, Sloopy's is an easy go-to delivery place for me when I want something cheap (relatively) and quick. I have tried many things on their menu, but the only thing I like is their chicken caesar wrap with seasoned fries. It is phenomenal when done right. read more

Pancakes were AMAZING! House potatoes, one hundred percent recommend! House coffee very tasty! The atmosphere with all the plants, stone and waterfall was so relaxing and very enjoyable. Jackeline was an incredible waitress! A great local spot if you're stopping through Manhattan. read more

The food is really good and the service is great. Our waiter is Thomas and he has the best personality. I have been coming here since it opened in the late 60's or early 70's. The menu has really expanded and that's a good thing. The antioxidant salad is to die for! read more

It was my first time coming to sloopy's and I absolutely enjoyed how calm the vibe is and I definitely recommend it. I genuinely love the look of all of the plants and the fire place keeps the room warm all around. The servers are so sweet and considerate. read more

my boyfriend took me here today and the food really exceeded my already high expectations. I got the California Chicken as a wrap and the chicken was nicely cooked and seasoned. Would come here again when I'm in the area and recommend to a friend!! read more
