The grilled oysters and mussels were delicious, but I would not recommend to pay for this event. $ 47.72 for 2 tickets to get in. $ 50 for 5 drinks (I was expecting wine but they offered vodka spirits and Beatbox flavored wine and hard kombucha) 2 orders of grilled mussels and oysters $25. Maine Lobster Roll was $26. We didn't get to enjoy the even because it was so insanely crowded, it took us more than an hour to order food in one stall in the second one an hour and a half. And 40 minutes to get the food . So all the time we were in line. Parking was 12. We could have gone somewhere nice and actually enjoy the food.

I will not be visiting again. This event was so poorly planned and ultimately could not handle the crowd of people that it sold tickets to.

Parking alone took almost 2 hours. There were no signs, no attendants, nothing that properly directed the flow of traffic to the appropriate parking structures. By the time we made it to the parking structure itself, they told us it was closed and that we had to go to another structure but didn’t give actual directions. Instead, they left us to just follow wherever the cars in front of us were going. Mind you, the line after me was still heading to the closed structure without knowing that it was closed.

The event itself was even more disappointing. After waiting 2 hrs for parking, we found out that we’d have to wait another 45 min-1 hour for EACH VENDOR of food. The venue itself was way too small and narrow, so all the lines for the different vendors were bleeding into each other, causing confusion as to what line was for which booth. The walkway in-between the two rows was too small and just overall ridiculous.

The point of festivals is to be able to try food from multiple vendors. But that’s impossible when it takes half of the duration of the festival just to park and visit one vendor. Who wants to pay $20 for an entrance ticket just to wait another hour for each vendor? The organizers of this event sold way too many tickets for what the volume of vendors and size of the venue could actually accommodate.

And in the midst of all of this, the communication from the organizers to the guests was piss poor. I’m so mad that I spent my money on this but at least I know for the future.

This was my first and last time attending this event. When I got there the line for the each food booth was an hour long and when you finally order the food it was a 40 minute wait. After the 40 minutes wait they tell you they ran out of the food you order. Don’t get me wrong the food I did manage to get was good but you can see the event was totally unorganized.

So regret that bought tickets to this event. There is no choice of seafood, just few trailer with burgers or regular shrimps, you have to stay hours in line to order food and it's definitely doesn't deserve. So supid event. And there's no 5$ food samples at all as they promised.

This is basically a paid version of what happens around LA every week. Food trucks, in a park, with music. What makes this even MORE fun is the hour+ wait just to order any food and the $24 to get in.

Extremely rude. Don't go to this event.
