Just a stone's throw from Manhattan Beach Pier, this restaurant is big and buzzing. It's almost always packed, especially with plenty of young families, and they're all here for a taste of Chef/co-owner David LeFevre’s globally minded creations with a clear California point of view. Head-on Caledonian blue prawns ajillo atop diced potatoes with saffron mayonnaise. Beeler's Farm pork porterhouse is grilled and accompanied by Asian pear kimchi and a black mustard sauce. Everything revolves around gathering, conversing and sharing, and portions lean small, so plan your ordering as a group to explore a majority of the menu.
