Guidebook for Manhattan Beach
Food Scene
Great food for reasonable prices and a casual atmosphere. We recommend the french dip, fish tacos and chop salad. The beer on tap is very fresh and they have a lot of variety.

This is one of the best restaurants in LA, let alone in Manhattan Beach. The food is considered to be "Fusion"--a mix of Asian, Latin and American food. Reservations recommended.

MB Post is a great restaurant. They have a lot of small plates and excellent quality food. Reservations recommended. It is fun to sit at the bar in the back too, which doesn't require reservations.

They have great sandwiches that you can take to the beach. My favorite is the Natural on Squaw Bread. They also have cakes and cookies.

Some of the best seafood that you will ever have. You need a reservation as this restaurant only has a few tables (I think it seats 27?). The bar is first come, first serve, but only has 4 seats. It is pricey, but the quality is the best!
