“I recently had the pleasure of dining at Nonstop Sushi & Sake Bar in Marina Del Rey, and it was an exceptional experience from start to finish. The moment I walked in, I was greeted with a warm and friendly atmosphere. The staff were incredibly attentive and made sure we felt welcome throughout our visit.

The menu at Nonstop Sushi & Sake Bar is extensive and offers a wide variety of options, catering to both sushi enthusiasts and those who prefer cooked dishes. We started with the Garlic Edamame, which was perfectly seasoned and a great way to kick off our meal. The highlight, however, was the sushi. The Spicy Tuna Roll and the Yellowtail Carpaccio were absolute standouts. The fish was incredibly fresh, and the flavors were well-balanced and delicious.

One of the unique features of this restaurant is their sake selection. The staff were knowledgeable and helped us choose a sake that perfectly complemented our meal. It added an extra layer of enjoyment to the dining experience.

The ambiance is trendy yet intimate, making it a perfect spot for both casual outings and special occasions. The outdoor seating area is a nice touch, offering a pleasant view and a relaxed vibe.

Overall, Nonstop Sushi & Sake Bar exceeded my expectations. The combination of high-quality food, excellent service, and a welcoming atmosphere makes it a must-visit in Marina Del Rey. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a memorable dining experience. I will definitely be returning soon”

“There are many types of beer.
In particular, the main 805 was a clean-tasting lager, and the unfiltered UDBA had an impressive, savory and sweet taste.
On the other hand, the Nitro Velvet Merkin had a fairly high alcohol content, but the soft vanilla flavor and aftertaste were really good.
For food, I ordered fish and chips, which were crispy and delicious.”

“Real nice enjoy seeing the beach while I ate”

"We are a tip free establishment"

I wish there were more establishments like HiHo!

“Nice walk-up bar with great food at the pool deck area at the Ritz-Carlton, Marina Del Rey. The staff is very friendly and helpful; they have numerous servers walking the pool deck to take orders, deliver eats & drinks and make sure the guests stay well-fed and hydrated! They also have outdoor seating at the restaurant patio, some with a fire pit. During our few days staying at this property, they came around about once an hour with free samples of drinks and snacks to try, which was really nice.”

“First time our family did not cook and host Thanksgiving dinner at home. My family joined another family at Ruth Chris Steak House. Hands down- it was such a wonderful experience! The turkey was so tender! I am not a stuffing person ( more dressing) but their mash potatoes was so good with the Turkey and spinach!

My only criticism- Ruth Chris show have a dress code. Dinner dining should be special.”

“Living in MDR and Venice for almost 15 years, crazy to how many of the nicer restaurants have closed. It looks completely different than 10 years ago. No more Chaya, Tasting Kitchen and the Rose just closed. Obviously the Ritz has the staying power of corporate dollars. This is a great location in the marina and always has some good wines and champagne on the menu.”

“I recommend juice Crafters after having their Green smoothie post workout/run. The customer service was really good and the price for the quality of smoothie I received I would not mind paying again. The store front is small but was well organized and you are able to view the menu and see the other items for sale easily on display.”

“Proper old school burger that reminds me of my childhood burgers . Great buns and fresh salad and just delicious”

“Friendly staff 🙋‍♀️always happy and eager to help . Thank You all 🙏🏻”

“Beautiful place. Pet-friendly. Great service. Tasty food.”

“Aye!!!!! Must be the MONEY”

“Absolutely fresh salads and healthy options”

“This comment is for food only as I had someone do the pickup. The two-item combo is $11.99 and five-piece wing is $10.38, not a bad deal given the inflation era we have been living in.

We ordered:
Combo 1: Fried rice/Singaporean noodle half half,
Orange chicken, Spicy fish tofu. They all have excellent tastes and texture. The fish and tofu has a little numbing pepper in it which tastes legit and I really like it.

Combo 2: Chow Mein, mixed veggie, black pepper chicken, salt pepper shrimp. Again, the taste hit the spot. The shrimp is crispy enough to chew and eat the shell too.

5-piece wings: the wings are crispy outside and juicy inside. The original flavor makes it mild and not overall salty. Perfect for fried chicken.

In my opinion, the food is much better than Panda Express as they are less greasy and way less saltier. If you crave for a quick bite of fast food Chinese, I would highly recommend Golden Scoop!”

“Out of all the fat burgers locations I’ve tried , this is the absolutely best one ! I was starting not to like fat burger after many disappointments … but this location, omg the burger was so juicy and seasoned perfectly…. The fries was hot and the cookies was sooo soft and warm !”

“The food is good when they have the right chef other times is like they just want to cook something fast and mess up the food like one example the kung pao chicken should be spicy but it wasn't this 3rd time that I went there also the spicy fish wasn't either and no flavor ,and I've tried those before and it was ”

“Amazingly well kept restaurant with fantastic food and great service. Highly recommend it to anyone looking for excellent food in the Marina del Rey area.”

“The general manager, Alba, went above and beyond in helping a large group of friends hold a celebration of life at this location. Reserved tables, flowers, treats...

Josh "Pepe" was a fixture here - every single morning. Everyone knew him and he loved joking with the staff.

Everyone who worked here was incredible and many came to pay their respects, even though it was their day off.

Thank you to the whole crew - Josh wouldn't have wanted it held anywhere else.”

“very good food and the staff very welcoming and professional”

“Burgers are outstanding not to mention those onion rings are a hidden gem”

“The food is delicious!! Amazing clam chowder and homemade bread. The fried calamari and shrimp are delicious too!”

“I’ve been going here for years, but it’s been quite some time since my last visit. Everything is just as I remember it. Tasty, decent pricing, friendly service, clean restaurant. Would definitely recommend this for place.”

“I wanna thank James and Evelyn for being the best !!! I love their customer service and great hospitality I just love it here !!! They both were the bomb hands up !!!!! This is the best location to stop by in Marina del Rey California !!! Best frappe ever Anna cold brew as well !!”

“We have been huge fans of Ike’s from the original location in SF many many years ago. Turkey bacon avocado on Dutch crunch is a don’t miss. Always delicious and even though we’re in so cal now it brings back nostalgia of the Bay Area from 20 years ago. The staff at the marina location were kind, knowledgeable and attentive. Thanks for the hospitality.”

“For V 5000 and H in the yellow apron.

They know how to run things. But here's the part where I get to be me. ? Sometimes I can be the worst person to complain in person because I am extra into freedom. Yes I can be smiley, and happy and cool while also not liking everything for the comfort of others feelings. I've lived that life so I offer a trade. 5 stars for the good ones and I move along to my next spot because I love a good disappearing act. ✌️”

“I was in rush and picked up my drink and left. I wish I paied attention and say thank you to the barista. She placed a puple heart on my coffee cup that I saw later. Thank you for your kindness it means alot.”

“This week, I decided to try a new coffee spot and visited Alfred. The menu featured many great drinks, including some of my favorites like Lavender Latte, Vanilla Latte, and Lavender Matcha. I had a hard time deciding, so I chatted with one of the employees, Olivia. She was incredibly friendly and patient, answering all my questions. I had a very pleasant experience and look forward to returning soon.”
