Located by the Redondo Beach pier on Harbor Drive, CK is an unassuming beach shack dive of a restaurant, where you pick your cut of fish from the butcher, pick a couple sides and they grill/fry/saute the fish for you within minutes.
I had the Orange Roughy, because I like flakier fishes, and it was grilled to perfection. The fish literally melted on my tongue because it was so fresh. I had the clam chowder as a side-- also delicious, obviously not of the canned variety, with fresh celery, potatoes and large chunks of fresh clams, and the homemade mac salad, also delicious.
J had the halibut steak (it was perfectly textured and grilled), the coleslaw (a little bland but still good) and the rice pilaf (which was amazingly delicious).
I would love to go back in the evening, pop open a couple pacificos and dig into my fish while watching the sun dip into the pacific ocean.
But if you are also wanting to pick up some items to take home and grill yourself, they have a really great selection of seafood, their tiger prawns and scallops looked so amazingly fresh and delicious. The best part was that their shrimp were already de-veined and split, perfect for grilling!
