Came here for an early family lunch after a harbor cruise and were delighted with the find. 1) Free 2 hours parking validated by the restaurant at the lot thats about a 5ft walk away. 2) I was worried that it might be difficult to get a table for 10 but the staff had pulled tables together and placed reserved signs on them for our group. 3) Ordering food was quick and easy, despite the size of our group. You order up at the counter and they have a nice vintage chic sea type seating area. Very cozy and aesthetically pleasing, like SF restaurants. 4) Free regular lemonade if you check in on Yelp! It was really tasty. Or you can choose from draft beers or Craft Soda from the fountain. 5) Food came out pretty fast. (I wish they wouldve given cutlery to everyone though.) All the dishes were large serving sizes so we ended up sharing quite a bit. Everything I ate was delicious! The clam chowder, calamari in a sweet tangy sauce with a carrot type coleslaw. The lobster roll was the only entree that came with a free drink. The beer battered fish and chips was awesome, and the fish didnt taste too heavy despite being fried. The grilled fish entrees with rice and sides were very tasty and good healthy options. No one ordered the Maine lobster at our table, but other patrons did and it looked awesome. We were all very pleased with the food. 6) Service was great. Nice, clean place. Not too loud and good central location. Nice patio seating to be used in warmer weather. 7) Overall, fabulous experience.

My friends and I had the lobster roll, mac and cheese, oysters, and the broccoli and brussels sprouts. I am not sure why the lobster rolls were so highly beloved. for me, it was just okay. I felt like it did not come all together for me. Oysters of course were good and big as well. The mac and cheese was super disappointing. I felt that it was dry, congealed looking and tasted like it lacked true flavor. I actually really enjoyed the broccoli and brussels sprouts. I thought it was well cooked and well flavored. If i were ever to come back, it would be for that. I also had the cucumber mint lemonade which i felt had great flavor, was refreshing and great combination of sweet and sour. The best part about this place is the alcohol, the drinks, atmosphere inside and out and the broccoli and brussels sprouts.

Decided to head to downtown Long Beach and had a craving for fish and chips. Couldnt find a fried fish place to my liking but Pier76 had a great sounding menu of grilled fish and the like. It was a hit! Its a casual dining place but with a more contemporary class than your standard fish shack. It reminded me a lot of California Fish Grill. Perfectly grilled fish with an array of delicious creams and sauces to accent each fish. Good serving size and comes with buttery rice and choice of one side. Their fountain drinks have a selection of quality soda by Stubborn specialty soda company and two Izze flavors. I stay away from standard high fructose syrup sodas so it was a nice treat to have this selection. Prices are also reasonable for what tastes like good quality fish!

Soo so good. Its rare to find a fast casual place with lots of seafood choices. I find most sit-down seafood restaurants intimidating because I dont know much about seafood. I had grilled tilapia with grilled zucchini as my side. I paid extra for brown rice and even that tasted extra good - I think they cook it in something savory. The tilapia came with an aioli that presented me with a dilemma: eat the deliciously grilled tilapia without the yummy decadent aioli or eat the aioli with the tilapia and miss the perfect solo flavor of the fish. I might have had some aioli-covered fork as a third choice. I added a side of the kale tomato salad. Heads up: when ordered a la carte, the side is huge. Almost entree size. Also delicious. Cant wait to try more things!

I travel the country for my job and eat out for dinner Sunday through Friday night. With that being said, it is really had to find a place to stand out, this one did. First and foremost the service is phenomenal. I was greeted with a smile by Kelsey , who helped me out with food and a beer that is just what I wanted, even though I did not know what I wanted. I ordered the crispy calamari as a appetizer which I in the top 5 I have had in the country. For my main course I order the Live Maine lobster and white cheddar mac and chesse, can we say bomb dot com........ I highly recommend this place to anyone visiting or anyone local!! Once again phenomenal service, great food, and at a great price!! You will not be disappointed!!

Came here with some friends for dinner and I got their lobster roll and a beer. Pretty nice selection of craft beers but the lobster roll, while pretty tasty, was ultimately a bit too rich for me: the bread is buttered and toasted, and there was a lot of mayo/sauce with those lobster pieces. Also, the the crispy fried onion bits things had an overly sweetish taste that I wasnt all that thrilled with. By the time I got to the end of the sandwich I was feeling kind of bleah. This is a nice-looking place and the people working there were great, but I think the food can be a bit hit or miss, based on my experience and other reviews. Id probably come back and try something else, though, as Im a fan of this concept for this area!

Finally made it inside to try the food, and it was a pleasant surprise! The food is so so good! I had the Salmon with sweet potato fries. These guys really know how to use a grill! The vibe is really great too. Vintage long Beach photos, nautical theme objects litter the walls. The chairs and table are also very unique and interesting. The outdoor seating area is spacial and had nice views of Downtown Long Beach even overlooking the Convention center and further away Rainbow Harbor. The restrooms here are super nice. The staff are friendly and helpful. I walked here so I dont know how the parking is. I can only imagine paid with possible validation. Park somewhere else and walk, its worth it and its also a nice walk.

Had the calamari, grilled salmon, and the live Maine lobster. The calamari was tough and chewy: an appetizer I would never order again from here. The grilled salmon was definitely grilled, but to the point where the salmon was dry and the char was overpowering: might have been a bad chef for that day. The lobster was a positive experience. The meat had a nice sweetness to it that you dont normally find in lobster at other restaurants: could be just good quality lobster to begin with. Based on the calamari grilled salmon experience, both of which are the bread and butter for seafood spots, I do not suggest even trying this place as just a block away are other already better established seafood places.

Our family was visiting on vacation for 3 days and went here twice! Quality food for a decent price. The sides are awesome (sweet potato fries, broccoli and cabbage slaw, brussel sprout and broccoli-quick fry, strong flavor). Very casual, you order at the front, seat yourself, your food is brought out to you and they clean the table afterwards. Very nice and clean inside, friendly servers. The fish was cooked perfectly when we went friday night at 4pm when the place was empty, and slightly overcooked when the place was bustling on sunday night, but good all the same!
