This joint is in a great location, can't imagine what they must pay for rent. That would at least explain the need to charge $18 for the grilled artichoke- which, don't get me wrong, it's excellent. The cocktail shrimp and oysters are also delicious. Order any of the chilled seafood dishes and you won't regret it.
Tried the dine LA menu, and loved it! Service was super fast and all the food tasted great. The first course was clam chowder which was light but packed with flavor and really celebrated the flavor of clams. The lobster roll is enormous and comes with a heap of fries. I had the hand roll combo which is great for anyone looking for a flavorful meal without huge portions. Overall I was very impressed and would like to return and try the regular menu.
We stopped by here right after going to the bungalow and the oysters on people’s tables looked good.
I got a dozen oysters, fancy set(lobster, scallop & toro), crab and fried oyster hand rolls. The oysters were phenomenal, very fresh and delicious. The fancy set was also delicious and the lobster was my favorite.
The crab was also great but the fried oyster was better. Overall it was a great dining experience. The color of the food is a little off because there was a blue light in the outside dining area.
I’d definitely come back again and they their other menu items. Customer service was great by Jason and it was an overall great dining experience.
The food here was super!!! delicious. Especially, the bouillabaisse was even more delicious than the stew I had in France. I would like to express my gratitude to the chef here. And I thought it would be great for the chef to cook for a long time.
자주 올게요.!!!🤤🤤🤤❣️❣️❣️
In the case of oysters, American ones are not fishy and are delicious. Please keep this in mind when choosing.
The location is great, right next to the coastal promenade.
The lobster sandwich was very good, the fried fish was also good, and the fries were crispy and would have been tastier if they were thicker.
The only pity is that the oysters are not worth $24, they are too small.
Nice place to enjoy the view of Santa Monica. I was not really hungry and just looking for a place to sit down and relax, so I decided to try this restaurant. I ordered some fresh oysters and french fries to much on while enjoying the view. The oysters are really fresh and the fries is also really good. Good food & good view!

What a great find. Especially in Santa Monica where everything is expensive but not always deservingly so. This place was so worth the money. Excellent ambiance, food and service. Best lobster roll I found on our trip. The “sushi tacos” are delicious and unique. Oysters were on point and fresh. Great wine and drink selection. We had a blast, would definitely go back.
Decided to grab a quick bite & some drinks while we explored Santa Monica & this place did not disappoint. It was super cozy, the service was warm, friendly and on point and the food was deliciously amazing! Definitely would come back for another visit to try more of their menu
Amazing seafood. The server was very helpful and friendly. The calamari was fresh and tasty. The Crabcake was amazing. There was happy hour deal on baked oysters which were tasty. The drinks were good as well. Would visit again when I am in LA.
The drinks were tasty and most of the dishes had really great flavors.
Server was friendly and attentive.
Parking was cheap at the public garage on 2nd, just 1 block over.
Was here for the Lucky Yu Japanese-Baja California pop up
I think the oysters are crazily overpriced - they’re good but not mind blowing.
Got the fried shrimp (good), the Japanese fries (similar to McDonald’s fries with some Japanese bbq sauce and bonito flakes; not as good), mussels (great bread and broth, but mussel meat was abysmal)
Orange wine was good, I recommend
Good ambiance with nice heat lamps outside
We wanted to get seafood 🦞 around Santa Monica but wanted to avoid the crowd. I got a lobster roll and my partner got a lobster Mac and cheese. It was a bit pricey for what we got but the flavor and service was not bad.
I’d go back!
Lobster Mac & Cheese with white truffle oil…. Need I say more? My favorite things beautifully baked and served on a skillet. I nearly ate the entire serving myself.
We also ordered the First Mate Tower. It came with a nice assortment of raw seafood favorites, with oysters and mussels that tasted fresh. The crab claws and half Maine lobster were great, but the surprising star for me was the crab dip.
If you are a seafood lover, Blue Plate Oysterette is a great place for you. You really can’t make a fuss about expensive seafood when it’s top quality, and my experience with Blue Plate justified that.
Great atmosphere, good food, and drinks. Definitely make reservations ahead of time to see if you want to sit inside or out.
Seafood tower is a must. Didn’t feel too full after so 3 couldn’t share this unless it was just your appetizers. The selection is divine and I will die for another oyster pls. Drinks are also fuego. Casual boujee I liked it. Only thing is patio seating is awful x but service is good!!
Me and my wife had lunch on Friday around 1 pm. It wasn’t crowded and when I asked to a lady to seat inside she was making faces and I told her that I didn’t want to be in the sun. She finally let me go inside. My waitress was very nice, the food was delicious. I had the lobster roll with fries and my wife had fish with salad.
Great little seafood restaurant across the street from the Santa Monica beach/pier. They had some delicious happy hour food and drink specials. We sat in their enclosed outdoor patio space off of the street and ordered raw oysters, grilled artichokes, garlic parm fries, and Mac and cheese for the kids. It was all delicious, although the oysters were incredibly small. If you’re dining with someone that’s more of a land eater, this might not be the pick for you. If you love seafood, and are looking for a place to dine with an ocean view, you won’t regret coming here!
