Fresh seafood market with dine-in, pick & cook options
"Quality Seafood has been open since 1953 and is a Redondo Beach institution. Located right on the pier, this is the kind of place where you pick your seafood, decide whether you want it roasted, steamed, or fried, and wait for your feast to arrive. If ordering individually feels like too much of an undertaking, however, go for either the seafood paella or lobster and clam bake. Both are excellent and ideal for big groups on the beach. Order here for takeout." - brant cox
"A pier filled with knock-off t-shirt shops might not be the first place you’d look for an incredible seafood spot, but you’ll find one on the boardwalk in Redondo Beach. Quality Seafood is a completely chaotic fish market, where you select what you want from a case loaded with freshly caught fish on ice, and they cook it however you want. We usually opt for deep-fried red snapper and steamed Dungeness crab, but you really can’t go wrong." - brant cox, sylvio martins, garrett snyder, cathy park
"A popular pier-side seafood spot where locals line up for freshly steamed crabs, often served on spread paper with wooden mallets for cracking, delivering a nostalgic, hands-on dining experience." - Patricia Doherty Patricia Doherty Patricia Doherty is a writer who specializes in covering destinations, resorts, and cruises for Travel + Leisure and other publications.

"As the name might imply, this spot on the Redondo Pier takes seafood very seriously. It’s basically a fish market with a huge, multi-level dining room, and when you want to order oysters, you grab a sheet of paper, mark what you want, and hand it over for them to shuck. They source their oysters from all over the globe, including both coasts of the US, New Zealand, and Scotland. If you really want to taste oysters from around the world, this is the best place to do it." - sylvio martins, nikko duren
"We don’t have hard evolutionary data, but we’re pretty sure humans were designed to eat seafood next to the water come summer. We’re very sure, however, that the spot to do it is Quality Seafood. Steamed clams, cold beer, and harbor views. Your post-beach lunch is settled." - brant cox, cathy park, sylvio martins, jess basser sanders
