The Warehouse Restaurant

My girlfriend and I had filet mignon and lobster on New Year's eve on the deck overlooking the harbour. Perfect timing because we had the added bonus of a magnificent fireworks display. We shared 6 fresh Washington State oysters on the half shell, followed by a medium rare steak done to perfection and the New York cheesecake - delicious! The building is old and a bit run down but the friendly staff and shantytown atmosphere make it an enchanting place to sit and watch the boats come and go. I doubt the building will be there forever so try it while you can

We came here for my friend's birthday. It was during happy hour. They got a good variety of items on the menu and the drinks are great! Unfortunately, you have to pay extra for Salsa classes.

WOW!!! The best oysters Rockefeller I ever ate! Absolutely delicious, next we had the seafood trio with shrimp scampi and baked sweet potato. All incredible, all amazing and made with the care of a personal chef. Truly worth finding! Great views of the harbor. Last but not least was the desert. Bread pudding with grilled fresh banana sauce. This was one of the best deserts I have ever ate in my life. Life is way to short NOT to have eat this!!! Totally earned, with flying colors my hastag #Nofeardining !!!! Will be back for happy hour!!!

Got food poisoning from rank guacamole in a tostada shell. Looked good but felt off. Should’ve gone with my gut.

The clam chowder was cold. You can't beat the atmosphere. Friendly customer service. I will definitely be back. The Warehouse has good lunch and dinner specials. 😋

We made reservations for brunch to celebrate a pivotal moment in my life. It’s been decades since I last visited this restaurant. Chris was the server at our table and he made this visit was a pleasant one. We sat on the patio with views of the marina. This is plenty of shade on the patio for those hot days. There are three dining areas to this restaurant, Upstairs, main dining area and patio. You can watch sports in the bar area. Most of us order from the breakfast/brunch menu. The breakfast menu offers a variety of options. Our food was delivered fast a fresh to our table. Our cocktails were a little flat for this brunch. The women’s restroom is clean and full stocked with the necessary essentials. There is plenty of parking or you can valet your parking. I had a great experience. The restaurant offered complementary souvenir photos. I had to get one!

The service and the atmosphere were great. The outside sitting was nice with a nice view of a marina. The food did not taste that great though. I ordered Alaskan Salmon sandwich with fries and it was ok. We also had New York cheesecake and Tramisu which were better than the sandwich. Might go again for the vibes!

Lovely day on the patio with a great view of the Marina! Food and service were quite lovely!

Ordered a medium rare 16 ounce prime rib steak. Steak came out rare, so so meat quality and no flavor what's so ever. I was highly disappointed and I was looking forward to satisfying my desire for a good steak. Server was missing throughout the night for such a slow night as it took almost 25 minutes to receive the bottle of wine from the moment she took our order. The chicken piccata was good and so were the mashed potatoes. Atmosphere was nice as we sat outside at night next to the harbor and the live music was great. I would consider returning to try other dishes.

This review is not about FOOD. If you're looking for a lively and fun night out, Salsa Night at The Warehouse Restaurant on Fridays is the place to be! The atmosphere is electric, with great music, a welcoming crowd, and plenty of opportunities to get on the dance floor. Even if you're not an expert, the energy is infectious, and you'll quickly find yourself wanting to join in. They often have beginner salsa lessons before the main dancing begins, which is perfect for newcomers or those looking to brush up on their moves.

Food average...also quite limited (from the way it was before...with many of people's favorites dishes missing from the buffet!) Service...cursory! Ambiance...Fake Tropical! The Warehouse Restaurant "used" to be a fun place to visit, when I first moved to Los Angeles...and they had a smorgasbord weekend brunch. But over the years the place has declined. (Especially after the pandemic!) The new owners (Chinese) got rid of their smorgasbord weekend brunch. And went with a prefixed menu. Now the only time they will present their original Smorgasbord brunch is on Christmas Day. And they've have raised the prices ridiculously high in the two times I've booked Christmas reservations. Together with an added a "service fee of 15%...plus they expect you to tip on top of that!...The bill for a group of 6 came to over $400!...and even the champagne that was served was a fake labeled copy of a well known quality brand. Needless to say I won't be going back for their Christmas Brunch...or for Any other meal...Period! I've given it a one star rating...Because of the price Alone!

Prime rib was a little cold, but tasty Service was amazing as usual Calamari was amazing. Had to order another. My kids ate it like fries

It's not every day that one can get a nice big venue to do a Christmas white elephant gift exchange after dinner. The food was good if service was a bit slow due to the holidays. I would still recommend this place for salsa and events despite various shortcomings.

Amazing service and love the view. If you're not a local you've probably passed the Warehouse and wondered what in that building. It looks like you're getting in line at Disney for the Jungle Cruise, but what lies beyond is a fun restaurant spot. My friend group will often come here for brunch. The service is amazing, they always seem to have fun with our group. The food is good, but can be a bit Marina-pricy (paying for the ambiance and views). If I can put in one request - please bring your buffet brunch back. That was amazing. It was our groups favorite Brunch spot because of it and we miss it. It used to include bottomless mimosas and we always had an amazing time.

We came here for my friend's birthday. It was during happy hour. They got a good variety of items on the menu and the drinks are great! Unfortunately, you have to pay extra for Salsa classes.

Very good food, service and ambiance. The live band was great. On site parking is a plus. Love this venue.

This place surpassed my expectations. Usually restaurants with a view sometimes skimp on food quality, but not this place. It had the view and great food! I had to order something with seafood to go with the view of the marina. I ended up ordering the prawns and portobello mushroom with mashed potatoes. My friend ordered the chicken marsala. Both were delicious! The staff and service were friendly and attentive. They even made me an iced coffee even though that was not on the menu. The only thing was the menu was kind of limited and bit pricey. Definitely recommend for a date night!

The vibes at the Warehouse are akin to a grungy tiki cafe in the best way possible - the hawaiian shirts were on, the decor was giving Florida spring break 2011, and the live band played jimmy buffet all evening. It was fantastic. You feel like you've stepped out of LA for a little while. The drinks were strong and the whole happy hour menu was very affordable. Check them out for sure!!

"The worst oysters I've had in my life." -says the seafood eaters at the table Food-- Come for an inexpensive drink and the marina views but the food ain't it. We came on a Sunday afternoon for apps and drinks and got the clam chowder (2/5, unfortunately tasteless), tomato soup (3/5, solidly okay), the beef skewers (3.5/5), and a dozen oysters (1/5, real real rough). Parking-- There's a parking lot and it's valet for $6.

First allow me to state this restaurant has been a staple in Marina Del Rey for years. The food is great and the service is always good. I just have one complaintI think it's time they update the chairs/fabric as it's falling apart and shredding. The drinks were very good and the steaks were even better! I would have given 5 stars, but they must update the upholstery as it's giving old not rustic and it seems that's the look they are going for.

Walking up to the restaurant feels like walking into a water ride at a theme park, so cute! My kid was taken by the Koi fish, we were seated pretty quickly. Our server was really nice & on point with everything so big shout out to him! Our food was good and we all left satisfied. Oh and I loved the complimentary pictures! We paid for 2 extra because why not? Will definitely come back to check out the brunch menu

The ambiance is dated, the Clam Chowder was short on seasoning, it was my birthday, so we had an excellent experience sitting by the dock of the bay with service being just Ok, letting the time slip away. Plans are to visit again when in LA.

Came here for a group event. I love the decor and set up. The food was good and servers were really nice. They have a dance floor with salsa nights but it was a bit empty. The parking is a bit confusing too. Hard to tell between self parking spots and valet.

Very cute interior restaurant. They have koi fish you can feed outside. It looks like your at the Indiana jones ride at Disneyland. Food was good at a fair price. It came out quickly and the server was very sweet and attentive. My favorite part was the ambiance. Ph and the drinks were strong

We came here to celebrate a pivotal moment in my life! It's been decades since I last visited this restaurant. Our server was Chris and made this brunch celebration pleasant. We dined on patio area with an awesome view of the marina. Our food came fast and fresh. Our drinks were ok, it's brunch so I'll give a pass. There is dinning upstairs as well as downstairs. There is valet parking.

So I read some of the bad and good reviews. I must say that I was completely satisfied. We got a table in less than 20 minutes. View was amazing!!!! Atmosphere was great! Food was excellent !!! And let me just say that yes pricey but you get your moneys worth. We loved it, thanks Fred you did a great job!!!

The food was good, the service not so much, the drinks were bad as well but I still ended up keeping my margarita after changing the drink for another one. We ordered the filet miñon and added prawns. They added prawns for my order twice. Charging me $8 per shrimp a total of $16 for 2 shrimps. I will add the picture of what I received. Also, they add their tip which was 15% to the bill they waited explained he only gets 1 third of that tip since he had to share with busy boy and cook. The place looks cool, but not likely to return, I rather checkout another place that has quality, great service and great food and drinks. I wouldn't mind spending extra on tip if the experience is awesome.

This review is for their Friday nights. I love going there on Friday nights because they have Salsa all night!

It's beautiful here. Came for a tiki themed Marketplace on a nice warm Saturday afternoon. Valet parking was cheap $6. Great entrance with a Koi pond with some turtles. Inside we shopped upstairs it's two levels. Then we got some cocktails. The drink I had had a new 12-year-old woman that was very tasty when the bill came it was $2 more than advertised. I just expected a $2 refund but they graciously offered a free cocktail and exchange because the system hadn't been updated yet for correct pricing. Experienced only top shelf service. I don't know why they're saying customer service is lacking this is the best service in California and Los Angeles that I've received in a long while. He had lunch clam chowder and the club sandwich which we split between us with steak fries that you can't find anywhere else these days. Beautiful view of the marina with a boat race going on. Her food was fantastic I love this afternoon. I can't wait to come back here again. Five stars all the way I don't understand the reviews that aren't five stars this place is golden.

Had a big party of over 60 people there for Christmas party. Everything was wonderful wonderful, compliments to the chef the food, buffet was delicious. Beautiful weather so beautiful views. Awesome we had a great great time. Awesome service. Awesome will come again yes recommendation yes thank you.

I've visited this place with family once before and now I'm finally getting a chance to Yelp about it. I really enjoy this restaurant a lot! It's on the Marina so you get a nice view of the water and all the yachts that are docked in the water. The food was very good, the roast beef dip was tender and the bread complimented the aesthetic because it soaked up the dip juice. The tenderloin burger was so juicy and full of flavor as well. The drinks here are strong also, I had the Rum in a Barrel drink that was 3 different rums combined. Our server seemed a bit overwhelmed because of the rush but he was cool and got us all our desired meals and drinks.

So where do I start? We arrived pretty early, around 4p and got seated immediately. The waiter was one of the best ever, very attentive and even brought out a fun BDay dessert for my daughter. He was awesome!! If every restaurant had that guy, there'd never be a complaint! Anyway back to the food...This place had some of the best choices we've had in a while! We tried oysters Rockefeller, which were realllllllllly good! Also had the Seafood Trio, Crab Stuffed Salmon and the Northern Halibut! All 3 main dishes were to die for, SO good! We tried several sides and there wasn't a single negative thing we could say about anything! Food was AMAZING!!! The only sad part was that we couldn't stuff more in our stomachs! SO gooood.... The restaurant was themed well, with a live Koi pond, several cheeky turtles swimming around and several fun spots to take pictures. We ate our dinner outside on the deck/patio area, where you could see the marina in the background. My daughter very much enjoyed the experience, so thank you!!! The food alone should have made it a 5 star review experience, but then we got the check. On all the menus it mentioned a 15% "service charge" with no explanation, only that it would be added to the bill. During Covid many places were doing stuff like that, but that's over. Why are they still charging some huge extra amount of money on top of the overly inflated prices for the food. Three people eating there was $155 + $21 for invisible "service charge" + a tip! Most the time I don't care about extra charges, but this place had such good food, so I just felt like because the food was good, they decided they could just tack on any extra 15% just because they can! So my vote is 5 stars for the food, 5 stars for the service and 1 star for the price/extra charges! If you don't mind throwing away an extra $20+ spot for no reason, you'll love the food! I think this place has potential but a service charge for nothing seems wrong. If they added a couple more dollars to each menu item so you didn't see their stupid "service charge", I think more people would return because they wouldn't realize they were takin' a ride on the money train to hell for nothing....Will we return? Yes, probably, but still won't be happy about paying for nothing. Come for the food and service, just be prepared to pay a pretty penny to eat here!

This is by far one of the worst places I have ever ate (especially for the price). If you're coming here for the view of the docks then it's great, but anything other than that it's a waste of time. I came here with my family and for drinks we got the warehouse mojito, margarita, and a chardonnay. The drinks were actually alright so we enjoyed those. As for the food, we got 3 orders of the Clam Chowder soup, a Sandwich, the Northern Halibut, and a full size salad. The clam chowder was the right consistency but lacked much flavor (and I love getting clam chowder every time i'm seaside). Only one person at our table was able to finish their soup. The Halibut was bland in comparison to other restaurants i've tried it at and so I was a little disappointed, especially for the price point. For the sandwich; that was just the worst. We all took a bite and agreed it was too dry to be able to chew or swallow so we just left it there. We let the server know that it was dry and inedible but he just shrugged it off. The service and server were sub-par. I'm not sure if it was just me, but everything felt super rushed and I understand businesses get busy, but it didn't really feel welcoming. A forced gratuity was implemented as well even though it was only 3 people. Lastly, I had to ask for new utensils twice because what they brought out was already dirty. It kinda just turned me off to eating the food. To just quickly talk about the location itself; it's pretty. Wonderful amount of seating, nice bar area, and a great view! It's super open and very chill. The bathroom had one stall open, the other stall closed, and the third was too disgusting to use.. but maybe they were just having an off day. Not sure.

Great local spot with amazing happy hour deals! I've been local to Marina for a while now but haven't gotten the chance h til now to check out this place! It's unassuming from the outside but once you get inside the inside is spacious and has a great view of the Marina. The inside is filled with locals and the happy hour deals are unbeatable. Even the portions for happy hour were very generous! Food is good and vibes are great. Service is fast and friendly they even have events at night! Will be back!

The atmosphere is really nice. The food is good, other than my husband breaking a tooth on the hard bacon, on his turkey club sandwich. The shrimp cocktail was good, and their clay chowder is AMAZING!! Everything is a bit pricey, for what you get. Our service was excellent!! The main downside is the 15% "Service charge" they add to your bill. I don't appreciate that, to me it's theft. Then they still expect you to tip on top of that. Sorry, not sorry. NO!

The waves of nostalgia hit and we wanted to go back for old times sake. We used to go years ago when we used to live in the area. Much has changed. They used to have tons of staff working and there was always a wait, even during the week. We went on a weekday and there was no wait, and only a few people inside. The outside just needs a few minor fixes. Inside, the floors need to be refinished, new furniture and a bathroom remodel is imminent. The menu needs to make a few changes imo too. The old wet prime rib steak is a 90's thing. Food. 2/3: grilled Beef Satay skewers (were cold and unseasoned) this was the only thing we didn't like. 5/5: Salmon (the buttery sauce was simply delicious!) 5/5: Shrimp scampi (special order) 5/5: Fish & Chips (fries were excellent and fried crispy like I like them) Bathroom: 1/5: bathroom is definitely haunted. I got such a creepy vibe when I went in that I texted my daughter telling her to come in with me! 5/5: Service was excellent. We still loved it.

Why did we go there? First we're informed $6.00 just to park the car not a valet. Next, as we enter, a $15 charge notification on all bills for working staff etc and not including the tip. The food was ok but not worth the indigestion of the bill. Does The Warehouse realize the surrounding competition with free parking and and no up front fees. Enjoy the lovely ambiance. Lol

I had the pleasure of dining at the Warehouse last week when I joined some dear friends for mini High School reunion, if you will. There were 12 of us in the party and a lot of various beverages, appetizers and obviously meals being ordered. Our server as well as the hostess and other restaurant staff were incredibly attentive and did not miss a beat! Everything ordered came out in a timely manner and were absolutely delicious! I had the Alaskan salmon with garlic potatoes and it was heavenly I was so full after I was 1/2 way thru but I couldn't stop eating it The servers and all the staff were so great about checking in and making sure all was well:). The atmosphere was lovely. We sat outside on the patio with a view of the harbor and it was just beautiful! I loved everything about this venue and I will definitely return! Thanks so much for a great experience!

Jesus Christ, where do I begin. Fantastic happy hour, mindless @$$ backwards parking policy. It's 4.50 for beer or glass of wine, 6 bucks for a mojito, and 6 dollars for me to park my own car in their more than adequate parking lot? Please get rid of this asinine parking policy I'm sure I'm not the only person that this irks.... Views are epic overlooking the bay. Brings in an eclectic crowd of all difference backgrounds. If you chill in the lounge expect the f bombs to fly like the commercial jetliners coasting into nearby LAX. Gorgeous coi pond, damn good budget friends food options. Fix the little things, and you could have gotten 5 stars.

Yarrr! Server Hannah was a joy! She definitely didn't walk the plank on our last visit. The food here is always decent, you're paying more for the atmosphere of the seven seas! Bartenders and hosts are consistently kind, and the view is not to be ignored. Fair winds and following seas to the crew aboard The Warehouse.

First time trying this place, since I've seen videos and photos of it on IG. Was quite impressed by the size of this place, the cool shipwreck decor, and the vibes. My bf said it seems like something Disneyland would have. lol. The food, service, and ambiance were all great. Will come back again!

It was nice big restaurant. They have been open over 50 years . Sea food was great! I had dinner with different types of fish. My friends ordered chicken quesadilla, that had a chicken bone inside, that would have been red flag for me, but they enjoyed it. Portions are huge and you can easily share with big company I loved my Havana banana cocktail, but it was super sweet and sugary

The only thing good is a view from their windows. Food is sooo bad. We had party of 6 and only one person said his fish and chips were ok. Stay away from any pasta dishes and burgers. Chef clearly doesn't not know how to cook. It was wired experience with selling photos for $15 after a girl said I will do complimentary shots. I would definitely stay away from this place.

Came by for brunch but ended up having lunch Paola was our server, she was so nice and let me tell you this... she made the best mimosas ever. First time trying the warehouse and it won't be my las

The exterior decoration of the restaurant is very nice, when you enter it smells old, we chose to sit outside and the service was really not good, the drinks really taste very bad and I tried to order a different one and it was just as bad. We ordered meat and I asked for shrimp to be added for 8 dollars and they brought me two shrimp and charged me double, that is, 8 dollars for each shrimp. In the end they brought us the bill with the 15% tip included when we were only two people and the waiter suggested to me that I should leave another 18% tip for him. That is to say, they want you to leave a 33% tip, wow. This place is really one of those restaurants that you go to once and never come back.

Came here for the Dine LA special menu. Service was good, friendly staffs. We got seated in the patio, great view of the harbor. Food was good, great dining experience. Comped photo provided, a plus.

Okay okay okay.... HONEST opinion. Vibe of restaurant awesome! I think it would be great for kids!!!! I wasn't expecting much BUT the prime rib and mashed potatoes were high key pretty tasty! Ofc it wasn't the best I've ever had but it competes! My only complaint is as you can see I got a really fatty piece. Still great tho! YALL BE PREPARED TO PAY AN ARM AND A LEG FOR PARKING lol... there's no way it should be that expensive on a random week day. The lot is empty and it's the same price rather you self park of valet... oh and CASH ONLY!!!! So just be prepared for that!

I have only been here one time: New Year's Eve 2023. (This past one.) But we had the best time ever! They had the very fun band Rockin Retro that kept everyone on their feet all night long. This band has been around a long time playing here. They know what songs to play to get your A out of the seat! The place was packed to the rafters--one time it was easy but another time I had to fight and beg for a drink at the bar it was so competitive. Never dined here--so can't comment on the food. But if Rockin Retro are on the entertainment menu--come with your dancing shoes on and get ready to lose some weight! Parking was Valet which I hate, but I snuck into a space when they were not looking and just paid the valet fee to avoid those car wreckers.

The Warehouse is an iconic spot in LA, and my recent visit reminded me why I go back repeatedly. The waterfront location, the themed decor, and the lively vibe create an EXPERIENCE, not just a restaurant meal. And if you're coming for the food, you will LOVE IT. There are yummy appetizers, cocktails, and meals for everyone's taste. In fact, we all shared bites of each other's meals, and everything was delicious. I'll keep coming back.

So tasty!!! I looooove the chicken penne pasta dish too!Delicious!!! My husband had the salmon and it was to die for, garlic mashed potatoes yummm. This is our new favorite place! I highly recommend this restaurant!

We had the stuffed salmon with crab stuffing and asparagus and a sweet potato For desert we had cheesecake with berries Everything was fantastic. Salmon was moist and tasty. Our friends also ordered an appetizer of oysters. She really enjoyed them. I would order this again if I came and the scenery was great also at the marina. There was also live music being played. What a great treat.

The location is great right near the Marina. The restaurant has a nice and resembles a fisherman's wharf decor. It's very spacious and has a big outdoor patio where we sat for dinner overlooking the marina and the boats. Service was good. They were very attentive. We ordered calamari and my main dish was the trio. It's a decent sample size of shrimp, swordfish and salmon. I wasn't too fond of the swordfish but the shrimp and salmon was good. It came with a side of mash potatoes which was ok. Prices were ok. It was a good meal close to the hotel.

We love coming here due to the ambiance. Valet parking is $6 (Sunday night) Prices are decent - (calamari appetizer $18) The staff has been friendly each time we have been here. The views are beautiful. We ate inside - but by a window. They have heaters outside. You can buy fish food to feed the koi fish in the front pond.

A Hidden Gem. I Love this place. Been coming since Brunch was every wknd. But now it's changed to All y can eat Brunch on holidays and that's ok. I'm a vegetarian now and they still had a decent selection for me to choose from, considering. And btw, the Beef Ribs are still excellent my daughter tells me. The omelettes, which are made fresh with the ingredients u pick, are Amazingggg! Bravo to the chefs. The restaurant could be a bit brighter, less dingy. But it's to feel like a ship at the pier. So it works. The bathrooms could absolutely use an upgrade. I always sit outside. Great views of the Marina. Staff has always been friendly to me.

best cocktail prices in MDR. Bartender Alexie is always friendly and provides excellent service along with the rest of the staff. I love sitting at the tiki bar when they have live music, sometimes they charge a cover to sit in the bar during performances but they bring in amazing talent. Great happy hour and great people, and don't forget to try the tipsy mermaid.

Live music, happy hour, great service, on the water, you name it and it's here at The Warehouse Restaurant. This was exactly what we were looking for after flying into LAX and didn't want airport food. Only a 15/20 min drive and well worth it. Sea lions playing in the water below, the sun shining on the outside deck and the energy was perfect. It wasn't too busy, the portions are enough to share and the churros were just what I wanted for my sweet tooth. Valet or self park is available, the cost is the same either way. Service was quick and the atmosphere takes you away to an island vibe with fun tropical drinks and tiki furniture throughout. We will definitely be back when in town and highly recommend a stop here for lunch or dinner and don't forget to feed the fish and turtles on your way out. Cheers!

I will start by saying thank you Tiffffffff for great service. I heard a lot of great things about the food here so I was excited to come and have an amazing experience. We came down to celebrate a friend's birthday. She had a great time and enjoyed her sea bass. I should have followed her lead! We had the Oyster on a half shell, Oysters Rockefeller, The Lamar and a wedge salad. The salad and the drink was the best thing I had! The Lamar was NOT for me! It was one of the worst things I have ever tasted. The Oysters were alright and the Oysters Rockefeller I would never order again. The restaurant felt and looked so dingy and there were a few flies. I wish we would have sat outside it might have helped! I couldn't wait to get out of there! I wanted to try their brunch but after this experience, I wont be back
