Santa Monica
About the restaurant
Simply put, BOA is unlike any other steakhouse. We reinvented the traditional American steakhouse to fashion a distinctly unique dining experience. That experience is bold, modern and innovative. From the seductively stylish interior to the dry-aged prime steaks, BOA’s vibrant ambiance is as alluring as the cuisine itself.

I flew into LA to attend the Blackpink concerts at SoFi and made a reservation at one of my favorite places in Manhattan Beach, Rock ‘N Fish. My flight was 3+ hours late but the staff at the restaurant handled my requests to push back my reservation several times … A big thanks go out to the responsive service … I finally arrived at 9pm and was seated at a table right by the sidewalk where I could watch the vibrant scene on Manhattan Beach Blvd. I started with a 1908 Empress gin & tonic ($15) while I perused the menu. I ordered a half dozen oysters ($22.95) and the blackened halibut ($49.95) with broccolini and spicy mac-n-cheese as the two sides. The oysters were the size I prefer (small) and were served with cocktail sauce, horseradish and Champagne mignonette. My halibut was not as blackened as I expected, it was more like a well-grilled piece of fish. It was served with grilled lemon, and some Cajun butter. I chose roasted broccolini with honey / sesame glaze and spicy mac-n-cheese as my two sides. The broccolini was so good, I wanted more! I wish my halibut was a bit rarer; I like my fish underdone. That’s on me, I failed to tell Lindy how I wanted my fish cooked. I didn’t have room for dessert because the mac-n-cheese was so filling, so I ended my meal with a nice cup of coffee (gratis). I asked Lindy if they still had T-shirts for sale. She was unfamiliar with them, but she showed me some caps and I purchased three to give away as gifts back home in Hawaii. If you want good seafood in a vibrant atmosphere, Rock ‘N Fish is the place for you! Parking can be problematic, but I’ve been able to find parking on each visit. Call me lucky!
