I’ve been coming here for years now each time I’m in LA. The care that they put into staffing their business really shows as its not only quality food, but the service detail is always impeccable. If I could share just one reason why I continue to go; its the lobster bisque… not kidding; it’s just so right. So if you’re ever wanting authentic modern seafood or just the best lobster bisque in the city, go here. You won’t be let down. But do schedule a reservation on the weekend I’ve found they can get quite busy!

Upscale but relaxed and casual- nice vibes. We had a great view of the open kitchen from where we sat.

However, the good feelings waned along the way.

It was a very busy restaurant without doubt but we were still a little unhappy when told some items were sold out as it was only 7.30 p.m.

I felt the food was pretty ordinary or perhaps my expectations were high. The chowders were diluted and I highly recommend giving it a miss. The portions were rather small.

Came here for Valentine’s Day because we had been craving seafood and had a wonderful experience! The food and drinks were great, and our service was top notch (thanks Joey!) We ordered the oysters, calamari, hot lobster roll, and the Portuguese fish stew. Everything was DELICIOUS! They made a perfect-ratio dirty martini and even had blue cheese olives!!! (My fav) We left feeling very satisfied and can’t wait to come again!

I don’t understand how this place is closing when the line to get in was out the door, but we had the best time here on our visit to L.A. Delicious, refined New England comfort food and amazing fresh seafood. Service can make a good experience a “great” experience and our server Joey was absolutely phenomenal! He had us cracking up the whole time, gave excellent food and wine suggestions and took great care of our group. The manager or owner who checked on us was kind and friendly. Loved it!

Connie and Ted’s will always be one of my most favorite seafood restaurants. I highly recommend and thoroughly enjoyed their Jo’s Wicked Good Chowda (Sampler of Three – New England, Manhattan, and Rhode Island Clear), oysters and lobster!!! I always look forward to coming back.

Excellent service, the waitstaff was wonderful and very attentive. The maine lobster cooked to perfection- slid out the shell (and having grown up in Boston, you better believe I know lobster!)and the squash dish was unique and delicious. My son and his family all said what they ordered was delicious too (hamburgers, steak). The atmosphere was terrific in a wonderful area. We were on a private terrace outside lovely! So happy we came here for my 69th bday! Will definitely come here again and again.

Connie and Ted’s continues to do what few places in LA manage—serve up seafood that actually tastes like it came off the boat this morning. I had the sockeye salmon, cooked to that perfect midpoint between flaky and tender, with just enough char to bring out its richness. But the surprise hit? A new vegan creamed corn that deserves more fanfare than it’s getting. Silky, savory, and a little sweet, it somehow pulls off indulgence without the dairy.

Service was exactly what you’d hope for at a place with this much polish—attentive but unintrusive, with a team that clearly knows the menu inside and out. Whether you’re a regular or just stopping by for a seafood fix, Connie and Ted’s holds its own as a West Hollywood staple. Every plate that hits the table reminds you they’re not phoning it in—freshness and execution are the whole point here.

Connie and Ted’s is simply marvelous!

I love everything about this place. The food. Service. Ambiance. Design. It really makes you feel like you’re in New England with a touch of the West Coast!

We had reservations for Mother’s Day and arrived about 15 minutes before our time but we were seated right away.

We started with the halibut crudo. WOW. The fish was cut perfectly and the plate was beautifully decorated. And the quality of the fish was amazing. So soft that it literally pulled apart with the gentle tug of the fork. The fish was soft, light, and the pickles and citrus notes on top made the perfect pairing.

Now for the main dishes. The fish sandwich was simple yet perfectly executed. The brioche was light and fluffy. The coleslaw was crunchy. And that fish was so perfectly fried, the batter was light yet so crunchy and stayed crunchy while eating the entire sandwich. Fries were fried to perfection, crispy, crunchy, lightly salted, and tasted just like fries should!

The shrimp chilaquiles are seriously some of the best you’ll have in LA. Those chips stayed crunchy the entire time we ate through this dish! And the sauce had a robust, spicy, savory kick. It was cheesy and the shrimp were perfectly cooked. And those gorgeous yolked eggs on top were the perfect kiss.

Now the Lobster Croque Connie. Oh my. It might be easy to think “let’s just throw some lobster into a croque monsieur” oh no no . . . we gotta make it Connie and Ted style! The toast was light but so crispy and held it’s shape to soak up all the sauce. The lobster I think was just ever so slightly overcooked, like 30 seconds, but it did not ruin the dish at all. It was still soft and so sweet. Gruyere cheese for the perfect richness and that figaro sauce – basically a tomato hollandaise – was nuts. Not only did I run my croque through it with every bite, I used the french fries from the fish sandwich to dip it in the sauce too!

The best part – desserts!

The key lime pie was ON POINT. The crust was dense, rich, toasty, and oh so good. The key lime filling had pieces of lime – outstanding – it was smooth, tart, creamy, delicious. And that merengue – you know they toasted it to order because it was still warm when it arrived! I love that! Light, sweet, airy, amazing.

And that newly made special Orange Creamsicle Ice cream? Wow. Creamy rich ice cream, decadent caramel, tart orange and kumquats, and candied walnuts. The best sundae ever.

I definitely need to come back asap.

This place is always packed, so make a reservation before you go. Seafood was fresh and portions were generous. Loved the seafood tower and herb crusted fish. The jumbo shrimp lived up to their name (they were very large). Even though I’m not a big fan of zucchini, the side was delicious. The zucchini spears were tender and prepared with slivered almonds and two sauces on the plate. The server was polite and attentive. The only drawbacks were the uncomfortable chairs and tables too close to each other. It was a bit noisy. Also, valet is $17, but there was plenty of metered parking on the street.

Our first time to this classic seafood restaurant. From the warm greeting to the thoughtful menu to the beautiful seafood, we had a delightful experience. This is like going back 20,30 years were presentations were simple, their was integrity in the food and the service was genuine. We will be back!
