Fishing With Dynamite has been celebrated for serving only the most pristine seafood with accolades that include Best Oyster Bar and is among Chef Lefevre 's diverse family of restaurants. The restaurant is located off of Manhattan Avenue, a short distance away from the Manhattan Beach pier. Parking is difficult to come by as it always is in this area, so I recommend allocating time to find parking before your reservation. I started my meal with the Burn Bey-Bee Burn described as a gold rush w/Elijah Craig bourbon, lemon, burnt honey which was surprisingly refreshing for a bourbon based cocktail. Apps included Wild New Caledonian Prawns, Wild Spanish Octopus and a platter of assorted dozen O...
First time here and I'm ready to go back! I've heard about this restaurant but for some reason never ate here until today. Started with the onolicious cocktail. As a native of Hawaii, I had to try it. It was a delicious mai tai with a li hing flavor and it was strong. I loved everything about it. Scallops on the half shell as an appetizer were enjoyed by everyone. My entree was the seared Maine diver scallops. I ordered it after seeing pictures on Yelp and the dish was delicious. I asked for my scallops to be well done, and they were perfectly prepared. The steamed Manila clams were a hit and came with a baguette for dipping up the buttery wine sauce. Someone ordered the halibut and it looke...
Before you even have one bite of the exquisite dishes served at this darling Manhattan Beach seafood restaurant, you'll feel welcomed as a very important guest. Are you dining for the first time? You'll receive an extra special treat. Our hostess found a seat for us at the Oyster Bar on a very busy Sunday and filled us in on the history of the restaurant while we got settled. Then John, our server led us through the mouth watering menu with perfect suggestions and a ton of charm. Tony, behind the raw bar, checked in frequently to be sure we were enjoying our meal. We definitely were! Each course was incredible. All five senses were activated as we tried each dish, and we had such a fun exper...
We had an awesome dinner with friends on NYE and loved the chef's special pre-fixe menu! The portions were generous and they even treated us to some free truffle shavings on our delicious sea urchin risotto. Cocktails are always spot-on and the entire staff are extremely friendly and welcoming. One of our favorite local spots!

Our favorite seafood spot in Manhattan Beach! Really can't go wrong with any of their dishes. Every time we're here we always order dirty martinis, oysters, scallops, and fries. Definitely don't miss out on their clam chowder (my husband's favorite) or their key lime pie; it's hands down my favorite in LA!
Great dinner and amazing food , overall a great first time experience. We appreciated the courtesy of the personnel, the atmosphere and the food is absolutely of high quality and taste was delicious. We were happy to have our NYE dinner at this restaurant, and we hope to come back for the regular menu!
Chef Alice and her team hit it out of the park with an amazing New Years Eve menu, fantastic from start to finish. Our server Jessica was great, another great experience at FWD!
