About Us

Overlooking the Pacific and the Manhattan Beach Pier, The Strand House brings together everything you want in a coastal California dining experience—seasonal, chef-driven cuisine, panoramic ocean views, and impeccable service delivered with the warmth and hospitality you would expect from an iconic beach town. One level down, StrandBar serves up the energy of a modern beach house, with live music, DJ sets, and craft cocktails flowing late into the night. Spanning three stories framed by floor-to-ceiling windows with unobstructed Pacific views, The Strand House experience is matched only by the glow of the sunset just beyond your table.
Our Story
Opened in 2011 by a small group of South Bay families, The Strand House was created to bring something new to Manhattan Beach: a destination that combined elevated dining, sweeping ocean views, and a vibrant nightlife scene under one roof. With a chef-driven menu of California coastal cuisine upstairs, and craft cocktails and live music downstairs at StrandBar, it’s become a favorite for locals, a must-visit for travelers, and a go-to for celebrations of all kinds—the Pacific Ocean as its ever-stunning backdrop.
