Eric Ericsson's Fish CO Description:
Because it's the only restaurant on the Ventura Pier, Eric Ericsson's has tourists crowding the outdoor and upstairs tables to get a better look at the waves, surfers and beachgoers. Tables inside the main dining room have a view, too, but it's limited. It seems that tourists who've been walking the pier and breathing the sea air all day have a better dining experience than locals who drive over just for dinner. Service and food quality can be inconsistent. The menu suffers from an identity crisis, offering dishes from Mexico, Japan, Italy and America without regard to cohesion. If you don't want to commit to a full meal, try the Tapas Bar upstairs for a cocktail and bite of stuffed peppers, tempura-style albacore tuna, salmon in a caper-dill sauce or shrimp in a ginger-teriyaki sauce. At lunch and dinner, avoid the fried fish dishes and go for the broiled fish or seafood pasta options. Favorites include the seafood pasta in a tarragon-cream sauce and the shrimp tacos.
