   I have a garlic allergy. Our server noted it. My steak arrived with garlic butter on top. Flagged someone down and they checked with the kitchen and sure enough it was garlic. BTW the plate had been sitting because fries that arrived were ice cold. I had to wait 45 min to get another dinner. My friends had already finished eating. The steak arrived blue to rare. I’d ordered it medium rare plus. The kitchen insisted that was medium rare. Our server Tatum was lovely and tried her best but my food was inedible. It’s one thing to mess up but at the very least make sure you fix the problem and not make it worse.

   Joey Manhattan Beach has become my go-to spot every time I’m in LA, which is often—at least once or twice a month. Nestled in the heart of Manhattan Village, this place is more than just a restaurant; it’s an experience. From the moment you walk in, you’re greeted with a complimentary glass of bubbly, setting the tone for an upscale yet welcoming atmosphere. The space itself is stunning—spanning over 9,400 square feet, with a 2,100-square-foot patio, making it the perfect place for business travelers, corporate groups, tourists, or a fun night out with friends. It’s trendy, vibrant, and offers a relaxed, contemporary vibe. The abstract artwork by California artist Amber Goldhammer adds a unique touch, embodying the essence of an endless summer. The menu is phenomenal, offering a global selection of flavors. The Joey Classic steak is a favorite, and the herb-crusted salmon is melt-in-your-mouth perfection. Whether you’re stopping by for brunch, lunch, dinner, happy hour, or a late-night bite, you’ll find something to love. And let’s not forget the stellar beer and wine selection, plus craft cocktails that keep the evening going. What truly makes Joey Manhattan Beach special is the impeccable service. A huge shoutout to Assistant General Manager Gina Blake, who went above and beyond to make our night exceptional. Her professionalism, warmth, and attention to detail made us feel like VIPs. It’s rare to find someone who genuinely cares about every guest’s experience, and Gina does it effortlessly. Our server, Simone, was fantastic, ensuring our table was always taken care of with the perfect balance of attentiveness and charm. If you’re flying into LA, a local, or just passing through, Joey Manhattan Beach should be your “Cheers.” Whether you’re here for business, a girls’ night, or a casual upscale evening, this place delivers on every level. And of course, kudos to Executive Chef Ramie Arbid—the culinary artistry here is unmatched.

   Joey's is always great. The hostesses and waiters are always on point. They start your visit with a glass of bubbly. How can anything go wrong after that? This is a great place for date nights, hanging with the girls or a date with yourself. You can't go wrong by coming here.

   Service was excellent. Food was good, maybe a tad overpriced but that may just be the new normal. Good ambience. Excellent business lunch option.

   Service was awful in our section. Our waiter and every one in that section. (The section right in front of the driveway entrance to the mall). We all waited forever for someone to check on us, order food, water refills. Everything.

   Went to Joey’s for Valentine’s Day weekend and it was an overall pleasurable experience. Our food was delicious! We ordered the Joey Classic Steak and both of our steaks were cooked perfectly! Not only that, but they were served fast which was amazing given that it was a Saturday night. I only had two complaints. First, I’m not sure if the champagne up front is complimentary. I’ve seen some reviews saying that it is. Regardless, we were not offered any. Second, (this isn’t for the restaurant staff) I’m not sure why some parents think that Joey is an appropriate place to take their kids. Some kids were well behaved, but others were jumping all over the booth and getting their hand prints on the divider glass. It’s not an enjoyable experience watching a child almost topple over the customers in the booth behind us. Not every restaurant is meant for children, specifically toddlers, and I feel like Joey is one of them.

    I had a great dining experience at Joey’s. The service was excellent, the food was delicious and served in a timely manner-despite how busy it was. I had a great server, Cameron she was amazing, personable, efficient and kind which made my overall dining experience that much more enjoyable. Thank you for amazing hospitality Joey’s is definitely a favorite. Will be back soon.
