Love Salt - Manhattan Beach

My husband and I took my parents out to dinner to Love Salt and we were not disappointed! Parking nearby can be tricky but we got lucky with street parking. Our reservation was at 6 pm on a Wednesday and it was already busy inside when we were seated. We had an amazing waiter who recommended a number of dishes for our group of four. We ended up ordering an arugula salad, their bread and butter appetizer, two pasta dishes (gnocchi and bone marrow), a pizza, and two desserts. Everything was tasty and fresh, and we loved everything we ate! A highlight of the night was the s'mores dessert! Can't wait to come back here again!

Great food and service, but unbelievably loud. We went to have a nice birthday meal as a couple, but could not hear each other over the din. We took most of our meal home and were relieved to leave. Also, the tables for two are the worst seats in the house crammed in a row between all the larger tables. We often had someone's backside up against our table. While the food was fantastic, we will not return.

Came here for a couples date night. Cute ambiance and right on the main strip of downtown Manhattan. Vibes inside were good too, trendy and fun. We enjoyed our food and I highly suggest you get pizza and pasta. It seems to be their strong suit. All the meats in the pizza are nitrate free too!! Minus one star because we were disappointed with our wagyu picanha. My husband was looking forward to eating it all week and it was served cold and there was no fat cap and very rare. We did mention this to our server and got a free desert so we appreciate them caring!

The food was good but what really made this dinner amazing was the service. Marc S was incredible. He was polite, always there when we needed him, and he was so nice to our 3 year old daughter, addressing her and making her feel like a grown up which made her day. Thanks Marc!
