"Strand House has some very good views of Manhattan Beach, so while they do have a private wine cellar, you’re going to want to be out on the balcony. The food is just fine, but when you’re drinking a margarita and feeling sea mist on your face, it really doesn’t matter. Capacity: 26 on the private balcony, 10 in the private wine cellar." - Sylvio Martins, Kat Hong
